Chapter 145: Since You're Here, Don't Ever Leave Again!
Lu Chuan still remembered that when he initially drove his convoy of trucks, it took a whole day to travel from Sunshine District to Qingshui Farm.
From Jianghai City District to Jiangnan City District, the distance between the two major areas was quite far.
Especially for other survivors in the apocalypse, wanting to come here without any means of transport.
There was only one possibility, which was that Zhao Lin came here on her own.
Lu Chuan was a bit bewildered; he couldn't understand if he had some unresolved issue with this Zhao Lin from a past life, to run into her again upon arriving in Jiangnan City District...
"Damn it! This woman is just too persistent, isn't she? How come she's everywhere I go?!"
Lu Chuan was utterly speechless; at this moment, he could only hope that Zhao Lin just happened to pass by.
This woman was practically like a jinx; previously, she inexplicably barged into his Sunshine District and caused havoc.
Back then, when he let her go, he thought it would be almost impossible to run into her again in this chaotic apocalypse and such a vast world.
Unexpectedly, plans couldn't keep up with changes, and in just a few days, he had encountered her again...
At this moment, Lu Chuan could only hope that Zhao Lin wouldn't inexplicably come to Qingshui Farm.
He had finally managed to stabilize his new home and didn't want this woman to disturb it once more.
If it were other human survivors, Lu Chuan would certainly have eliminated the threat in its infancy without hesitation.
But Zhao Lin's ability to come back from the dead and grow stronger was something that left Lu Chuan feeling quite helpless.
He couldn't kill her, but keeping her around wasn't a solution either.
This woman was really troublesome beyond belief.
Lu Chuan really didn't want to get involved with her again...
...
In Jiangnan City District, upon seeing the Corpse King's subordinates, Zhao Lin was so angry her teeth were grinding.
"Damn it! No wonder I've been starving for so long; you took the supplies again?!"
"Is this Corpse King brain-dead or what? You're a bloodthirsty zombie, what do you need so many human supplies for?!"
Grrr~
Soon, Zhao Lin's stomach rumbled uncontrollably.
With the constant traveling during this period and continuous zombie battles without proper rest, that small piece of bread just now had no effect at all.
Looking at the large amount of food these zombies were carrying, Zhao Lin couldn't help but swallow her saliva. She then pretended nothing was amiss and left the area.
However, she secretly followed behind the resource-collecting Corpse Puppet squad.
Zhao Lin was sure that these zombies in front of her were definitely listening to the Corpse King.
As long as she followed these zombies, she could definitely find Little Qiqi's current location.
"Little Qiqi, don't worry. I will definitely find you and let you live a normal human life!"
Zhao Lin clenched her fist in secret.
She didn't consider how she could take care of an infant when even she couldn't have enough food...
Zhao Lin, who had been following the Corpse Puppet squad all this time, thought she was hiding well, unaware she had long been discovered by Lu Chuan.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just as Zhao Lin walked past a street corner, she suddenly heard two whooshing sounds behind her.
Caught off guard, Zhao Lin's legs, like springs, tightened their muscles and propelled her forward in a quick roll, rolling several meters away.
As she raised her head, Zhao Lin immediately noticed 'Lightning One' and 'Lightning Two', wielding steel knives, standing in front of her.
Their terrifying speed startled Zhao Lin; the cold, sharp glint of the blades cutting through the air with whooshing sounds made it clear that being struck by them would mean certain death!
Upon discovering Zhao Lin, Lu Chuan urgently directed 'Lightning One' and 'Lightning Two' to intercept her.
Now that he'd finally settled down at Qingshui Farm, Lu Chuan didn't want this bad luck charm to interfere with his life again.
Now having advanced to the second tier, both 'Lightning One' and 'Lightning Two' surpassed in speed and strength compared to before, their combat ability not even in the same league as before.
Especially when the two Agile Type zombies joined forces, their dual blades swung in the air, causing a silver and white cold gleam to permeate the area!
Although Zhao Lin's strength grew stronger after resurrection, she was still forced to retreat continuously in the face of two-tier two Agile Type zombies.
"How is this possible?! Isn't this the Agile Type zombie who was guarding me before? How did it break through to the second tier in such a short time?!"
At this moment, Zhao Lin recognized the guise of 'Lightning One,' and she was very surprised.
In just a few short days, 'Lightning One's combat power had multiplied several times!
In haste, Zhao Lin only had time to draw two tactical daggers from her waist in defense.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The knives and machetes clashed repeatedly in midair, sparks flying, and the immense strength of the knife left Zhao Lin's arms a bit numb.
Although both 'Lightning One' and 'Lightning Two' were Agile Type zombies and significantly weaker compared to Tank Type zombies like 'Da Pang' in terms of strength.
But after all, they were body-evolution-type zombies; their overwhelming power still far exceeded what Zhao Lin could compare to now.
What surprised Zhao Lin the most was 'Lightning One' and 'Lightning Two's combat techniques, clearly having advanced more than a level from their previous encounter.
As a police officer who had undergone systematic training, Zhao Lin now found herself somewhat lagging behind the two zombies in terms of combat experience!
She was immediately troubled, for every encounter with the Corpse King brought nothing good.
She couldn't understand how these mindless, bloodthirsty zombies suddenly turned into martial arts experts?
Whoosh!
'Lightning One,' relying on its excellent combat skills, flicked its machete upwards after slashing, directly knocking Zhao Lin's dagger out of her hand.
Deprived of her defensive weapon, Zhao Lin instantly fell into a disadvantage; 'Lightning Two's machete landed directly on her back, leaving a gruesome scar.
In pain, Zhao Lin furrowed her brows; yet even before she could catch her breath, 'Lightning One' threw down its dual blades and rushed over with fists swinging.
Those huge fists, full of force and fierceness, left Zhao Lin unable to dodge under the joint assault of the two zombies. She took a punch to the abdomen from 'Lightning One,' flying backward four or five meters, landing on her knees.
Her already pale complexion was now covered in cold sweat.
At this moment, Zhao Lin's hair stuck to her cheeks with cold sweat, making her appear rather pitiful.
However, Lu Chuan had no intention of showing mercy. 'Lightning Two' also rushed to Zhao Lin's front, landing a heavy kick that sent her flying six or seven meters.
Zhao Lin, like a sandbag, slammed into the wall of a building, even causing cracks in the concrete wall.
Under the force of the counter-impact, Zhao Lin coughed up a mouthful of blood, severely injured in just a few exchanges.
Lu Chuan looked at Zhao Lin before him, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes.
"Since you insist on coming, then don't ever leave this time!"
