Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Dad’s Identity Must Never Be Exposed!
Looking at Zhao Lin, whom he had just choked unconscious, Lu Chuan mentally sneered.
He had been holding back his anger all night, and now he finally vented it!
"Aren’t you able to revive? This time I won’t kill you, I want to see how you’ll revive!"
Lu Chuan always liked to eliminate threats completely.
But the situation with this woman was completely different.
Lu Chuan remembered clearly, he had previously smashed this woman to a pulp with a giant hammer, breaking her bones to pieces.
Yet, despite this, she was somehow able to revive.
Not only did she appear lively in front of him, but her combat power had inexplicably increased several times!
Learning from past lessons, Lu Chuan wasn’t planning to let Zhao Lin die this time.
He threw Zhao Lin’s unconscious body to the ground, then instructed ’Da Pang’ to come over and swing a large hammer at Zhao Lin’s legs.
Crack!
With a loud sound, Zhao Lin’s legs were instantly broken.
"Ah!!!"
The next second, a scream like that of a slaughtered pig echoed between the buildings, Zhao Lin’s voice was particularly piercing in the dead of night.
The excruciating pain from her legs being forcibly broken awakened Zhao Lin from her oxygen-deprived stupor.
But the agony from her broken legs surged to her heart in the next moment, once again forcing Zhao Lin into unconsciousness.
Before passing out, her mind was filled with thoughts of Ji Ruxue.
"You damn Invisible, you’ve really screwed me over this time!"
"Don’t let me find you, or I won’t let you off!"
But at this point, Zhao Lin felt like crying because she realized she had never actually seen the other person’s face!
She couldn’t even hold a grudge against the Invisible in her mind because she didn’t know what they looked like...
When Lu Chuan lifted Zhao Lin again, he found that she had once more fainted from the pain, but two streams of tears had rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
"Did this woman cry from the pain?"
Seeing Zhao Lin in such a miserable state, Lu Chuan felt not an ounce of pity, his eyes still full of indifference.
Today this woman almost killed him and even threatened the safety of Little Qiqi.
If he could kill her, he would have already hacked her to pieces in anger.
Lu Chuan disliked letting danger linger beyond his control.
So he planned to keep this policewoman alive, treating her like a caged dog if necessary.
This woman’s ability to grow stronger upon revival made Lu Chuan somewhat uneasy,
The best response was to keep her under his watchful eyes, always under his control.
Anyway, now that Zhao Lin’s legs were broken, Lu Chuan didn’t believe she could stir up any more trouble.
As long as he didn’t let the policewoman die, she couldn’t revive and retaliate against him.
Then Lu Chuan picked up an iron chain from in front of Building No. 5, originally used to lock the unit door, perfect now for binding Zhao Lin.
Ji Ruxue watched all this unfold through the balcony on the second floor.
She hadn’t expected her gentle and caring father to have such a ruthless side!
But seeing her father acting so decisively, Ji Ruxue felt not repulsed, but rather delighted.
In this apocalyptic world, kindness would only lead to one’s own demise.
Ji Ruxue had experienced countless killings amid her journey to becoming the Human Queen in her previous life.
Being betrayed by those around her was even more common, so Ji Ruxue had long understood that to survive in this world, one must become cold and ruthless!
Initially, Ji Ruxue had been concerned that her zombie father, retaining human consciousness, might struggle to survive after the apocalypse, due to his gentle demeanor towards her.
But now Ji Ruxue was completely at ease, realizing her father was far more resolute than she had imagined.
"This time, Dad didn’t kill the enemy, only broke her legs. Seems he already understood the Nine Deaths Demon Police’s power to become stronger upon revival."
Ji Ruxue nodded in admiration, a faint smile unconsciously appearing on her lips.
To Ji Ruxue, the dumber the Corpse King was, the happier she would be, as such an existence would pose a significant threat to humanity.
But if the Corpse King was her father, Ji Ruxue only wished for him to be as smart as possible...
After all, surviving the apocalypse wasn’t easy.
Given the current situation, having this Nine Deaths Demon Police in her father’s hands was the best outcome.
Though this woman was easily deceived, she wasn’t exactly a fool.
Now that she knew about the Corpse King in Sunshine District, she must not be allowed to leave.
If her knowledge leaked, it would put her father at great risk.
The Corpse King was extremely dangerous for humanity.
However, the combat power of the Corpse King itself wasn’t strong, and if targeted by a Human Evolver, it might easily fall into danger.
Facing a Corpse King, humanity’s main problem was being unable to locate it and identifying which among the horde was the King.
Thus, the Corpse King blending in with the hordes without standing out was the best concealment.
The current issue was that Zhao Lin already knew about the Corpse King’s existence in the Sunshine District.
If she escaped and exposed this to the Survivor Base, it would pose great danger to her father.
Knowing the Nine Deaths Demon Police’s initial mentality, she was confident that if the enemy could leave,
whether out of revenge against the Corpse King or some inner sense of justice, the Nine Deaths Demon Police would find countless ways to carry out an assassination plan against the Corpse King.
Her father’s strategy of crippling the enemy’s legs to restrict her movements was undoubtedly the best solution.
As for whether Zhao Lin felt pain because of this...
Ji Ruxue didn’t care in the slightest.
Initially, she had intended to ally with the Nine Deaths Demon Police mainly because she thought her father was too weak and wanted to rely on the police’s strength to protect him.
In Ji Ruxue’s heart, her father was always the most important.
Even if the Nine Deaths Demon Police were a future human powerhouse and might be a useful ally if subdued,
to Ji Ruxue, they were still not as important as her father.
Her father’s identity as the Corpse King must never be revealed.
At least not yet.
Unless in the future her father or she became strong enough to withstand an attack from Human Evolvers without fear.
Presently, she and her father still needed to keep a low profile and live cautiously.
