Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Preparations Before Leaving
Lu Chuan was constantly searching for a suitable place to live on the map based on his requirements, and eliminating options one by one.
Finally, Lu Chuan successfully identified a location on the map that met his criteria.
It was a farm not far from the urban area of Jianghai City, offering a vast plot that could accommodate his large corpse puppet army.
Additionally, the farm had fertile soil that could be used for planting, and if conditions allowed, he could even have a large number of corpse puppets cultivate the land to grow crops.
Perhaps he could let the little one enjoy some fresh vegetables, and the farm was quite close to the urban area.
Lu Chuan believed that the number of zombies around the farm would likely be substantial, satisfying his needs for corpse control and acquiring Crystal Cores to grow stronger.
After much contemplation, Lu Chuan felt increasingly satisfied with this location.
In that vast farm, the little one could experience the beauty of nature.
Escaping the long confinements of the concrete jungle, changing the environment and living style could benefit Little Qiqi’s growth.
Lu Chuan found this place more and more suitable, and he marked it on the map with a pen.
After Lu Chuan left, the curious Ji Ruxue quickly came over to check.
"Why did Dad suddenly start looking at maps? What’s he planning?"
It’s really strange and eerie for a Corpse King to be staring at a map for so long.
Thankfully, Ji Ruxue knew that her zombie father retained human memories, so it wasn’t all that odd to her.
Searching the map, Ji Ruxue quickly found the Qingshui Farm marked by Lu Chuan.
That place was right next to the urban area of Jianghai City, and upon seeing it, Ji Ruxue frowned.
"Why did Dad suddenly circle this Qingshui Farm? Could he be planning to go there?"
"The distance from Sunshine District through Jianghai City to the suburban Qingshui Farm is not short..."
Ji Ruxue couldn’t help but feel puzzled; such a long distance was entirely outside of Dad’s usual habits.
However, with quick thinking, Ji Ruxue quickly guessed Lu Chuan’s reasoning.
"Could it be because so much has happened here lately that Dad realized Sunshine District is no longer safe, so he’s planning our next residence?"
"Looks like Dad is likely preparing to evacuate here, with his next target being the suburban Qingshui Farm."
With this hypothesis, Ji Ruxue suddenly recalled her previous joint operation with Zhao Lin, where they attacked Sunshine District at night...
She still remembered how enraged her father was on that occasion; perhaps it was then that he started to have major concerns about the safety surrounding Sunshine District.
Realizing that her actions had caused her father significant stress, Ji Ruxue felt a bit embarrassed, as she hadn’t known the Corpse King of Sunshine District was her father.
Since she spent every day with Lu Chuan, Ji Ruxue knew her father still arranged for corpse puppets to patrol around the neighborhood, searching for traces of her collaboration with Zhao Lin.
With this in mind, Ji Ruxue sighed helplessly, knowing that Dad might never find the Human Evolver who secretly acted in Sunshine District.
First came the incident with her and Zhao Lin, and now there were so many Human Evolvers showing up here mysteriously.
The crucial part was finding out that some of them had information about the human Survivor Base.
Ji Ruxue knew that her father likely thought Sunshine District had already been exposed to the survivors’ view.
By then, as the Corpse King, her father might be exposed.
Ji Ruxue couldn’t help but smile wryly, realizing that it was understandable that Dad wanted to move due to so much happening recently.
"It seems the pressure Dad is under is even greater than I imagined."
Ji Ruxue didn’t care much about relocating; all she wanted was to stay by her father’s side.
No matter where Dad went, she would follow—whether to the outskirts or any other location.
With her eyes gleaming with determination, Ji Ruxue resolved to train harder.
As the apocalypse progressed, the pressure on zombie Dad kept increasing, so she needed to improve her strength, too.
If she could become strong enough to protect her zombie dad, he wouldn’t need to move just to find a safer place.
Ji Ruxue understood that only by becoming powerful could she become the greatest support for her father in the apocalypse.
After a glance at the map, Ji Ruxue returned to her training, determined to further enhance her capabilities.
...
Meanwhile, once Lu Chuan had decided to abandon Sunshine District and move to another area, he began controlling his corpse puppets to prepare for his departure.
To control more second-tier zombies, Lu Chuan had intensified his search efforts recently.
He dispatched more corpse puppets within his control range, searching for more traces of Evolved Zombies.
Now that he had broken through to the third tier, his Spiritual Power had increased greatly compared to before.
Before leaving, Lu Chuan had to convert this growth in Spiritual Power into enough strength.
The post-apocalyptic world was too dangerous, and he couldn’t guarantee safety on the long journey across the city with Little Qiqi without sufficient force.
If he didn’t have a strong enough fighting force, ensuring Little Qiqi’s safety would be impossible.
Moreover, Lu Chuan planned to take all kinds of supplies he had collected during this time, particularly those that could be preserved for long durations.
After all, these were his hard-earned resources, and Lu Chuan didn’t want anyone else to take advantage of them.
Besides, baby supplies would be hard to find after leaving the city for the suburban farm.
However, looking at the room full of supplies, Lu Chuan felt a bit troubled.
Initially, he had collected everything to ensure the little one would have enough resources for growth, taking whatever was useful, even including three-year college entrance exam preparation materials...
Now, the entire fifth building was filled with supplies, making relocation a significant challenge with all this material.
