Feeling the terrifying evolution, Lu Chuan instinctively touched his head.
Although he couldn't feel the Crystal Core inside his brain, Lu Chuan estimated that after continuously devouring several zombie Crystal Cores, his strength had definitely increased significantly.
Especially the two Crystal Cores he recently devoured brought the most noticeable increase in his power.
Lu Chuan estimated that after devouring them so many times, perhaps his Crystal Core inside his brain had turned purely red!
If having a white Crystal Core means a first-tier zombie, then now that his Crystal Core has turned red, does it mean he has entered the second tier of red Crystal Core?
Lu Chuan thought for a while and didn't immediately control more zombies to replenish his Corpse Puppet squad.
Now that his strength had greatly improved, a bold idea surged in Lu Chuan's mind.
"Since I can control zombie movements, then evolved zombies should be controllable too, after all they are zombies and they have no brains."
The more Lu Chuan thought about it, the more he believed in this possibility. After all, zombies have no brains, and his mind had become stronger, suppressing zombies seemed like a logical thing.
The thought rushed into his mind and could no longer be contained.
Just thinking about it made Lu Chuan feel very excited.
After all, if he could control evolved zombies, then his combat power would dramatically increase.
Evolved zombies and ordinary zombies are completely different; one evolved zombie is enough to kill a bunch of ordinary low-tier zombies in seconds.
These Corpse Puppets, without his control, absolutely couldn't kill evolved zombies, not even hoping to pick them off.
Although this world was very unfamiliar to him, after spending a long time here, Lu Chuan had already understood that with the passage of time, all kinds of zombies would continuously break through.
If he continued controlling ordinary zombies, who knows, even with large numbers, it would be hard to truly defeat the opponent.
Thinking of this, Lu Chuan became even more eager and quickly began controlling his Corpse Puppets to search for traces of evolved zombies.
However, the number of evolved zombies is far less than ordinary zombies.
Now Lu Chuan's mind radiation range had reached a terrifying 8000 meters.
Within this 8000-meter radius, he could control Corpse Puppets to search everywhere, which was much more powerful than before.
Lu Chuan was in a good mood now; the bloody monster hidden in the dark was successfully taken down by him. It counted as eliminating a major threat.
That bloody monster was like a hidden assassin, moving silently and striking swiftly.
Lu Chuan feared one day he'd walk out the building, only to have his head pierced through by a tongue or witness a bloody monster climbing up to the seventh floor.
Now he no longer needed to live in fear.
Just as Lu Chuan was very satisfied with the strong enhancement brought about by his successful evolution, Ji Ruxue was rolling on the sofa in the living room with anxiety.
After such a long time with no news, Ji Ruxue had completely given up hope on Lu Chuan.
Those two zombies were so powerful; there was no doubt zombie dad was utterly defeated this time.
Although Ji Ruxue knew surviving in the apocalypse was extremely difficult.
Zombies that haven't evolved might perish at any time, but she hadn't expected the moment to come so soon.
Thinking back on the time spent with zombie dad, although they never communicated, they could feel each other's emotions.
Although not like normal babies with their parents, as a human-zombie pair, their relationship was still warm and comforting.
In this world, which had long lost all humanity, two lonely souls accompanied each other.
This rare experience made Ji Ruxue feel very beautiful; however, she didn't expect that after living two lives, the hard-earned fatherly love was snatched away again so quickly.
Thinking about that person who always took care of her, possibly never to be seen again, even though Ji Ruxue was once an Unparalleled Empress experienced in life and death, she still felt a bit sad.
"Just a little more time, then I can grow up, and maybe I'll be the one protecting you."
"Poor zombie dad, why don't you wait for me a while longer? Why couldn't you wait for me to grow up?"
Crack! Crack!
Just as Ji Ruxue was feeling despondent, the door lock suddenly made a sound.
Ji Ruxue was startled at first, but quickly realized—zombie dad is back!
Because ordinary zombies would just crash into the door, they don't know how to unlock it!
Sure enough, the next second the door opened, and a familiar figure appeared outside.
"Zombie dad isn't dead?!"
"Really? Am I hallucinating? This survival luck is too big!"
Ji Ruxue was incredibly excited and elated.
Earlier, those two evolved zombies caused such a commotion that even human survivors among Evolvers might not easily handle it.
Let alone her dad, just a regular low-tier zombie that would be mere cannon fodder, purely something to be killed in seconds.
After so long with no signs, Ji Ruxue believed zombie dad had met trouble, but unexpectedly, he stood in front of the door again like a miracle.
At that moment, Ji Ruxue suddenly had a feeling of gaining back what was lost.
Originally she thought, after witnessing the apocalypse's cruelty, she had become extremely indifferent.
But she hadn't expected, in the absence of news from zombie dad, she would still feel panic.
It turned out that unconsciously, she had really regarded him as family, rather than just a companion taking care of her daily needs.
Extremely excited, Ji Ruxue, upon seeing Lu Chuan, jumped off the sofa immediately.
She ran directly over to Lu Chuan, though having just learned to walk upright, she wasn't proficient yet.
Currently walking wobbly and shaking, but it didn't stop her excitement.
Watching Ji Ruxue wobbling while running towards him, Lu Chuan was also very excited and quickly squatted down ready to support her.
After all, the little one had just learned to walk, Lu Chuan feared she might fall.
"Daddy!"
The babbling sound reached him, Lu Chuan's body stiffened, as if struck by lightning, he froze in place.
Watching the little one running towards him, Lu Chuan felt his brain explode, similar to a system crash.
Little Qiqi...can call me Daddy now?!!
