Lu Chuan looked at the results of his night's work and nodded in satisfaction.
Now, every storage space in the room, as well as open spots on the floor, was filled with various supplies he had gathered.
Even though Qiqi had quite an appetite, it would definitely be enough for him to eat for a long time.
After all, no matter how much the little guy could eat, he was just a baby, only able to drink some formula each day.
Having prepared enough supplies, Lu Chuan decided to stay home for a while.
In an apocalypse, survival was the key, not to mention that he had awakened the ability to control zombies, which implied that this world was far more complex than he had imagined.
Lu Chuan could understand that the zombie virus might strengthen individual bodies over time or through constant devouring.
But being able to control the actions of zombies completely defied normal physiological phenomena.
The sight of the Blood Moon hanging high last night made Lu Chuan feel very uneasy.
He had experienced changes, and he couldn't guarantee that other zombies wouldn't as well.
No one knew what strange powers those evolved zombies might possess, so Lu Chuan decided to lie low for a while.
After all, having just been reborn into this world only to be attacked by zombies, Lu Chuan really didn't feel very lucky...
After feeding Qiqi, Lu Chuan decided to observe inside the building for a while, then consider going out once confirming there were no problems outside.
Anyway, he had already gathered plenty of supplies and didn't mind staying a few extra days.
"This world is really strange, with peculiar changes happening every moment..."
"If it were just me, I would accept this ghostly existence, but now that there's Qiqi, I must become stronger!"
Lu Chuan went to the living room and picked up a steel machete about half a meter long.
He had found it while sweeping through the building, in a room on the sixth floor.
From what Lu Chuan knew, the city prohibited control knives.
He wondered what the previous owner did to own such a long machete, and its blade was already sharpened to be very sharp.
The straight back and heavy blade made it ideal for chopping over long periods, a typical type of mountain-cleaving knife.
But clearly, past rules no longer applied in this apocalypse.
After a night of Blood Moon Mutation, Lu Chuan not only gained the Puppet Control Ability over other zombies, but his physical attributes were also significantly enhanced.
His physical agility was now on par with an ordinary human. Originally, he had stiff limbs and could perform only simple movements.
But now, even when swinging the steel machete, he did so fluidly, the blade flashing silvery brilliance in the air.
Lu Chuan hadn't specifically trained in any swordsmanship, but as a zombie, his physical strength surpassed that of ordinary humans.
At this moment, swinging the machete, he delivered powerful and swift attacks.
Based on martial arts novels and movies he had seen before, Lu Chuan began practicing sword skills in the living room.
In his hands, the machete cut fiercely, producing a slicing sound through the air.
Lu Chuan looked at the machete with satisfaction, the extremely sharp blade was a deadly weapon in close combat.
The machete's lethality far exceeded that of a crowbar.
Lu Chuan was confident, holding the machete, he could definitely cleave a zombie's head in half with one blow.
The difference between humans and other animals lay in their ability to learn to use tools. All zombies rampant in the streets could only bite and tear with their claws and fangs.
But Lu Chuan was different, armed with human consciousness, he naturally wanted to master this more scientific and advanced way of fighting.
Lu Chuan was confident, if he had to face other zombies with a blade in hand, taking on several at once wouldn't be a problem.
Just as Lu Chuan was practicing swordsmanship, Ji Ruxue, after resting for a while, regained her Telekinesis and began contemplating her Talent Ability once more.
In this life, Ji Ruxue had two incredibly powerful talent powers, one of which was Time Control.
She had already owned it in her past life and was familiar with it, needing only sufficient telekinesis to unleash it without practice.
The other was Ji Ruxue's newly awakened Talent Telekinesis Control, which required practice over time to grasp and use proficiently.
Ji Ruxue focused her telekinesis, concentrating on a silver needle on the nightstand.
Under Ji Ruxue's Telekinesis Control, the silver needle slowly floated into the air.
It then followed Ji Ruxue's command, tracing a path slowly through the air.
The silver needle hovered above Ji Ruxue, appearing quite incredible.
It was like a scene only found in science fiction movies, truly astonishing.
Though Ji Ruxue's current manipulation speed was slow, she believed that with enough practice, she could develop it into a powerful tool for killing without leaving a trace.
And as her telekinesis gradually strengthened, the weight of the objects she could control would continuously increase.
Now it was a silver needle, but in time, she might be able to manipulate throwing knives.
In this way, two days passed in a flash. During this time, Lu Chuan practiced sword techniques in the living room.
Ji Ruxue trained her Sky-controlling Power in the bedroom, both fully committed to providing each other with a better life.
After Lu Chuan finished feeding Ji Ruxue, he suddenly noticed some disturbance outside.
Looking down through the balcony window, he saw two zombies on the street tearing into each other.
And the commotion of these two zombies fighting was not small, otherwise, Lu Chuan on the seventh floor would not have heard it.
Seeing this, Lu Chuan felt a bit puzzled; he did not see any human presence around these two zombies.
After spending a month here, Lu Chuan had come to understand his kind fairly well.
Though zombies were bloodthirsty and merciless, like emotionless killing machines.
If zombies attacked, it was typically only if there was a human scent.
Usually, zombies would not attack each other, except when competing for food. Internal conflicts among zombies were rare.
But clearly, no contested food was present below...
This was why Lu Chuan felt so shocked seeing the fight between zombies below, as it defied what he had known so far.
