Zombie King: Picking up a baby at the beginning is the reincarnation of the empress

Chapter 390 Zhao Lin Comes to Report the News!

Rumble~
The sound of vehicles speeding along the road grew louder as they approached.

Soon, two military off-road vehicles arrived near the Lijiang Bridge.

In the first car, Zhao Lin, who was in the passenger seat, saw the Lijiang Bridge and, having already made up her mind, said calmly, "Thunder Roar is in Shanchuan City. Once we pass Lijiang City, we'll be there soon. Let's stop here; I have something to do!"

Upon hearing this, the driver, though puzzled, still stepped on the brakes.

When the car behind saw the SUV in front stop, it quickly slowed down and stopped as well.

"Commander Zhao, why did we stop in Lijiang City? Right now, isn't our most important task to immediately head to Shanchuan City and rendezvous with the personnel from the other base cities?"

A third-tier evolved being in the back row asked with some confusion.

The driver and the other evolved beings also looked over in confusion.

After all, Thunder Roar is in Shanchuan City, not Lijiang City. They have only just arrived in Lijiang City, and there is still quite a distance to go before they reach Shanchuan City.

Did Commander Zhao think the risk was too great and change his mind at the last minute?

Thinking of this, their eyes shifted, and their minds began to wander.

"I was originally from Jianghai City, but I traveled all the way to Yuhua City. During the journey, I met a good friend in Lijiang City."

I'm going to check on her to see how she's doing, so I'll need a day.

Just for one day, haha, I don't think you'll mind, right?

Zhao Lin looked around at everyone and said with a smile.

This was naturally her excuse; she wanted to take this opportunity to inform Lu Chuan and Xiao Qiqi.

The news that the zombie king had taken over Lijiang Base City inevitably spread. As the leader of Yuhua Base City and one of its high-ranking officials, Zhao Lin naturally knew about this news.

So, after she gets rid of these people, she will head towards Lijiang Base City.

Upon hearing this, the group of people, who were filled with doubt, twitched at the corners of their mouths. It was truly outrageous that such an important mission was...

The group was naturally dissatisfied with Zhao Lin's behavior, but none of them dared to voice their objections when they felt her gaze upon them.

After all, Zhao Lin's strength and status are undeniable, far beyond what these third-tier team members can compare to. This mission is led by Zhao Lin, and they have no way to interfere.

"Commander Zhao, go ahead without worry! We'll wait for you here."

"Yes! Commander Zhao cares about his friend, so we naturally have no objection. Let alone one day, even if it takes two or three days, we can wait."

"Heh, Commander Zhao only lasted a day..."

"..."

They all smiled broadly, pretending not to care at all.

"Since you have no objections, let's set up camp here for now! We'll set off again after I return!"

Zhao Lin was very satisfied with everyone's performance. A faint smile appeared on her originally cold face. She nodded and said.

That's real skill!

If her cultivation level were only at the third level today, even with her title as team leader, these people would still inevitably complain.

Next, everyone got out of the car. The others began setting up camp, while Zhao Lin headed alone to Lijiang city and disappeared from everyone's sight. Upon entering the city, Zhao Lin didn't immediately head towards the Lijiang base city. Instead, she hid on the city's outskirts, secretly monitoring the group setting up camp.

After a good ten minutes, once she was sure no one was following her, Zhao Lin quickly turned around and ran towards Lijiang Base City.

Lijiang Base City.

Rumble~
Military trucks loaded with mutated ferocious fish slowly passed through the city gate and headed towards the zombie breeding base.

Chi~
Soon, the feeding convoy stopped outside the zombie breeding base.

Under Lu Chuan's control, rows of zombies began unloading the mutated ferocious fish from the truck bed, carrying them to the top of the wall, and then quickly dropping them down.

Hoho~

As a large number of mutated, blood-smelling ferocious fish fell, the zombie horde, drawn by the delicious aroma, instantly became restless.

One zombie after another, like starving ghosts, pounced on the group of mutated ferocious fish, opening their foul-smelling mouths and tearing at the delicious fish flesh, swallowing it whole.

Watching as many first-tier evolved zombies showed signs of advancing to second-tier, Lu Chuan's lips curled up slightly, quite satisfied. In his mind, he was already envisioning the next harvest of crystal cores and the cultivation of a sixth fifth-tier zombie puppet.

After the last harvest, the second and third-tier evolved zombies in the breeding base were almost completely depleted, reducing the originally dense horde of zombies by one-tenth.

Lu Chuan naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch the number of zombies inside decrease. After upgrading to Flame II, Lu Chuan specifically added a lot of ordinary zombies to the inside.

For these ordinary zombies, advancing to the second or third tier is not something that can be accomplished in a short time.

Therefore, if Lu Chuan wants to advance to the fifth-tier corpse puppet next time, he will probably still need these first-tier evolved zombies as his primary resource.

Meanwhile, Ji Ruxue, who had helped her father hunt the mutated ferocious fish, returned to her bedroom in the villa alone.

Before long, she replenished the energy she had used up while fishing. Then, Ji Ruxue climbed onto the bed, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate diligently.

As Ji Ruxue shifted her cultivation technique, the surrounding energy factors began to surge rapidly toward Ji Ruxue in the center.

Instantly, a faint, azure-colored spiritual light emanated from Ji Ruxue's body, exuding a terrifying and intimidating aura.

On a hill two kilometers away from the Lijiang base city, a dashing figure stood.

"Little Qiqi, Auntie has come to see you!"

"I wonder if the little one misses me. She probably does! After all, Lu Chuan can't talk, so Xiao Qiqi must be bored to death by herself."

Looking at the Lijiang Base City not far away, Zhao Lin smiled and thought with anticipation in her eyes.

She hadn't seen Xiao Qiqi for many days.

Before them stood a towering wall, six zhang high, like an impregnable mountain range, encircling the entire Lijiang Base City without a single crack.

Above the city wall, rows of zombies carrying rifles walked back and forth.

Meanwhile, outside the city, large numbers of zombies gathered. These ordinary zombies did not carry rifles, and their combat power was almost no different from that of ordinary zombies.

However, these zombies surrounded the walls layer by layer, making it quite difficult for ordinary evolved beings to get through the horde and reach the city gate.

Of course, Zhao Lin didn't care about this at all.

After all, these zombies are all under Lu Chuan's command. They're all family, so they probably won't attack him!
