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

Chapter 420 Target: Sixth Tier!
Time flies, and a week has already passed.

During this period, Lu Chuan and Ji Ruxue lived a very regular life. Apart from going out to hunt the ferocious fish in the Lijiang River, they basically stayed in the Lijiang base city.

Lu Chuan is mainly responsible for the operation of the base city and daily battles with fifth-tier corpse puppets to hone his skills.

Ji Ruxue mostly stayed in her room, meditating and cultivating, trying her best to absorb external energy and advance her cultivation level as soon as possible.

Lijiang Base City.

On the banks of the Li River.

Rumble~
A deafening roar echoed along the riverbank, interspersed with the eerie howls of mutated, ferocious fish.

The brilliant red light and the dazzling purple light intertwined on the riverbank, dyeing the water in red and purple hues.

On the open space by the shore, fireballs and bolts of lightning struck a large number of mutated ferocious fish, instantly annihilating them.

At this moment, Ji Ruxue was leading Thunder Roar, cooperating with Lu Chuan to hunt down these lured mutated ferocious fish.

Looking at the fish that had all turned into corpses in just a few minutes, Lu Chuan, who was standing behind with Xiao Qiqi, couldn't help but show a satisfied expression.

With the addition of Thunder Roar, their efficiency in hunting mutated ferocious fish has increased significantly.

After all, Thunder Roar unleashes thunder, and in terms of power, it is even larger than the fireballs of Flame One and Flame Two.

"roar~"

At this moment, Thunder Roar subsided its unexpected bursts of lightning and slowly walked back to Ji Ruxue's side, letting out a low, affectionate growl, as if it were seeking praise.

"Alright, alright, I know you're amazing. These mutated ferocious fish are no match for you."

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruxue reached out her small hand and patted the bear face that Thunder Roar was extending towards her, saying helplessly.

At this point, Thunder Roar's injuries had almost completely healed.

All the wounds on his body were completely healed, and the purple fur that had been burned by the flames grew back quickly, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

In addition, Thunder Roar has completely lost its previous berserk state, and the hidden dangers within its body have also been eliminated.

After subduing Thunder Roar, Ji Ruxue taught it a cultivation technique suitable for ferocious beasts, which allowed it to digest the accumulated thunder power within its body, resulting in a significant increase in its cultivation level and a noticeable change in its aura.

Furthermore, with the cultivation technique, Thunder Roar's strength will undoubtedly improve even faster, and it might even become an aid to Ji Ruxue in fighting against the alien invasion in the future.

After all, Thunder Roar advanced to the fifth rank on its own, achieving a level almost on par with Ji Ruxue and Lu Chuan. Its potential and future prospects are self-evident.

"Dad, what do you think? Wasn't Qiqi's decision to subdue everyone great!"

At this moment, Ji Ruxue turned her head, looked up at Lu Chuan, and said proudly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan smiled and nodded.

After all, Thunder Roar is a fifth-tier combatant. With Thunder Roar joining them, the strength of their base city has been greatly enhanced, so he was naturally happy to accept it.

They were extremely satisfied with Xiao Qiqi's previous decision.

Then, looking at the large pool of mutated ferocious fish corpses in front of him, Lu Chuan had an idea. The ordinary corpse puppets that were already prepared quickly walked forward from behind and carried the corpses of these mutated ferocious fish onto the transport vehicle.

"Little Qiqi, let's go, it's time to go back."

Ten minutes later, Lu Chuan wrote a line on a piece of paper, then pulled Xiao Qiqi and walked back.

Next, Lu Chuan led the convoy back to Lijiang Base City.

After returning to the base city, Lu Chuan sent Xiao Qiqi back to the villa with Thunder Roar to rest, while he led the convoy to the zombie breeding base.

Leading his group of evolved zombie puppets up the city wall steps, Lu Chuan looked down at the horde of zombies below, a smile spreading across his face, his heart filled with immense satisfaction.

Within the breeding base, large numbers of evolved zombies had appeared, including many at the second and third tiers, almost matching the number during the last harvest.

In other words, the zombie breeding base is ready to harvest again. Lu Chuan will soon be able to upgrade another fifth-tier zombie puppet.

Thinking of the alien invasion that Xiao Qiqi mentioned, Lu Chuan couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.

Despite being able to rout humans now, my strength is insufficient against those terrifying alien races. I must hurry up and become stronger.

"Next, I need to break through to the sixth rank as soon as possible."

Looking down at the horde of zombies, Lu Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Since he was a zombie, he naturally needed to consume a fifth-tier crystal core to quickly break through his cultivation level.

Obtaining fifth-tier crystal cores from the outside is extremely difficult; whether it's a fifth-tier evolved zombie or a fifth-tier mutated ferocious beast, they are something you can only dream of but never get.

Therefore, Lu Chuan can only seek solutions internally now, obtaining fifth-order crystal cores by advancing his corpse puppet to the fifth order.

Having made up his mind, Lu Chuan began to act, just as before, by feeding the zombies in the base crystal cores to help them evolve and advance to the fourth-tier zombie puppets they needed.

Soon, Lu Chuan obtained four fourth-order crystal cores.

Looking down at the four crystal cores in his hand, Lu Chuan had a thought and casually summoned a tank-type evolved corpse puppet from his fourth-tier corpse puppet.

Next, he will use this corpse puppet to advance to his seventh fifth-tier corpse puppet. However, this corpse puppet is just a tool, and Lu Chuan will kill it later to take its crystal core.

Soon, Lu Chuan fed the four fourth-order crystal cores to the corpse puppet in turn.

boom!
Instantly, energy exploded within the corpse puppet's body, beginning to help it undergo a life transformation. The violent energy caused the corpse puppet to tremble all over, emitting low roars and exuding a fierce aura.

Lu Chuan stood to the side, silently waiting for the corpse puppet to evolve successfully.

"Roar!"

Ten minutes later, a huge roar resounded above the entire base city, and a powerful yet unfamiliar fifth-order aura swept in all directions.

"Success."

Upon seeing the drastically altered corpse puppet, Lu Chuan's eyes flashed, and he nodded.

……

In the days that followed, without human interference, everything in the base city proceeded smoothly.

On the newly cultivated vegetable plots, large swathes of lush green vegetables are growing vigorously.

While Ji Ruxue was busy cultivating and Lu Chuan was improving his own combat power, he began to manipulate the corpse puppets under his command and established two new breeding farms.

at the same time.

Yuhua Base City.

"Evacuate?"

"There are zombies and ferocious beasts outside, how can we get out!"

"What exactly happened? Why are they suddenly evacuating?"

"..."

At this moment, in some parts of the base city, many residents gathered together, looking at the announcement posted on the wall, discussing it animatedly, all of them quite surprised.

During this period, high-level officials from various base cities have been exchanging information very frequently, discussing the matter of withdrawing from Jiang Province.

After much discussion, the major base cities in Jiang Province finally reached an agreement, and the withdrawal from Jiang Province began to be implemented.
