"Zuo Nan, come here!"
Zhang Chen stood on the sports field and waved to Zuo Nan.
The latter, with a helpless and miserable expression, jogged over.
"Mr. Zhang Chen... you were looking for me?"
Zhao Xiyue also hurried to go over, but was stopped by Chen Dahai.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Xiyue asked, confused.
"Uh... it's likely that Zuo Nan is going to perform a special skill, and it's not suitable for children!"
Chen Dahai explained with a troubled look.
"What special skill?"
Zhao Xiyue was puzzled and walked directly to Zhang Chen's side.
Seeing Zhao Xiyue, Zhang Chen smiled slightly, then said to Zuo Nan:
"Tell me, what should we do next?"
Zuo Nan looked at Zhang Chen, then at Zhao Xiyue, and then looked at Chen Dahai not far away as if seeking help.
Unexpectedly, the latter simply turned his face away, indicating that he couldn't help, and that he had to finish what he said, even if it meant crawling.
"Here?"
Zuo Nan was close to tears.
Especially when Zhao Xiyue was staring at him with curious, big eyes, he truly wished he could die.
"How would I know where?"
"Didn't you get the key to the lighthouse, and the map to the lighthouse?"
"Now you need to tell me how to reach the lighthouse!"
Zhang Chen said with a serious expression.
"Huh? The lighthouse?"
Zuo Nan, with his hands clutching his pants, was already preparing to pull them down.
Hearing Zhang Chen say that, he quickly pulled his pants up with force.
"As for the lighthouse... I have three suspected locations!"
"The first location is the meteorite impact zone, because no one has ever been there from beginning to end. Due to the proximity to the meteorite zone, there is a large amount of nuclear radiation, and it is also a paradise for mutated beasts. It is truly one of the most dangerous places in the world..."
Zuo Nan analyzed with a serious expression.
"The lighthouse is not in the meteorite impact zone!"
Zhang Chen said with certainty.
"How do you know? Have you been there?"
Zuo Nan asked curiously.
"Yes, I have been there, the lighthouse is not there!"
Zhang Chen's answer was very firm and undeniable.
"You've actually been to the meteorite crater?"
This greatly shocked Zuo Nan.
He did not expect the reincarnators of this generation to be so daring, to have gone to the meteorite crater so early.
It was no wonder Zhang Chen's strength was so formidable. While this adventurous spirit might easily lead him to a dead end, as long as he could survive, the opportunities he gained would surely be much more powerful than ordinary people!
Otherwise, how could he have easily crossed stages to kill the man in the suit?
A mutant killing an evolver, this was definitely the first case in history for Zhang Chen!
"Continue with your next two speculated locations!"
Zhang Chen asked indifferently.
"As for the other two locations... one of them, I believe, is very likely in the snowfield of Beiling Country!"
"Because I have consulted relevant materials, Beiling Country is the country with the most advanced aerospace technology in the world, and they have also proposed an Ark Project before, similar to the lighthouse plan, which is to place a space station in Earth's orbit to cope with war, climate change, and other unpredictable dangers."
"When the apocalypse broke out, their Ark Project was halfway through. As for what happened afterward, it's impossible to trace."
"But I feel that this place is the most likely hiding place for the lighthouse!"
Zuo Nan analyzed with a serious expression.
"What about the last location?"
Zhang Chen continued to inquire without comment.
"The last possible location, I think it should be the central area surrounded by the seven high-walled cities!"
"Although the map I have shows that it is a wasteland, with nothing there."
"But the shape of these seven high-walled cities is a semi-circle, leaning against the Tianlu Mountains. I think there must be something important at the foot of the Tianlu Mountains!"
"Moreover, regardless of which high-walled city the natives are in, they can reach the Tianlu Mountains smoothly, and the distance is even about the same."
"And the lighthouse should have been gradually completed by the natives after the apocalypse."
"The natives have always hidden within the high-walled cities, possibly secretly producing parts for the lighthouse, and then transporting them little by little for assembly."
"So this location is also very likely the hiding place of the lighthouse."
"After all, the lighthouse is a space station that can accommodate nearly a million people, and its scale must be particularly magnificent and spectacular."
"So I think ordinary places cannot hide such things, only these two places are the most likely."
"And the material transport map I previously had also leads to the Tianlu Mountains..."
After listening to Zuo Nan's explanation, Zhang Chen nodded silently.
It was evident that Zuo Nan had put in considerable effort in researching the lighthouse, and his two proposed locations were indeed well-reasoned.
"But... you woke up in the second high-walled city, didn't you?"
"Why did you travel all the way here?"
"Since you think the Tianlu Mountains might be the location of the lighthouse, you should have gone to the Tianlu Mountains immediately after getting the key!"
Zhang Chen suddenly asked.
"Actually... I've been to the Tianlu Mountains... but there are too many monsters there, and they are too powerful!"
"Also, supplies in the deep mountains are a problem. With my personal abilities, it's impossible to go deep into them."
"So I plan to travel a longer distance, and try my luck in the snowfield of Beiling Country first."
"Along the way, I can also improve my strength. If I can meet some reliable companions, then acting will be more confident."
"Who would have thought that as soon as I arrived here, I was robbed by the Black-tailed Swallow Legion. These guys seemed to know in advance that I would pass this way..."
Zuo Nan said with frustration.
Zhang Chen looked at the electronic map.
Among the more than 10,000 city maps he had received earlier, there was a map of Beiling Country.
From the current Qimu Country to Beiling Country, there was still nearly 10,000 kilometers to go, which was extremely far.
"We'll go to the Tianlu Mountain Range first. After ruling it out, we'll go to Beiling Country!"
Zhang Chen said decisively.
"Wait, what did you say? Us? What do you mean by us?"
Zuo Nan panicked and quickly asked.
"What I mean by us is 'we'. Once you find the lighthouse, you'll be free!"
"And aren't our goals the same now? Both are to find the lighthouse. Instead of going to your death alone, it's better to follow me."
"Share more of your intelligence with me along the way as a capital for your survival!"
Zhang Chen said with a smile.
He could see that Zuo Nan was afraid of death.
For someone who feared death, Zhang Chen's formidable strength was a guarantee of his loyalty.
There was no need to waste a subordination potion.
"Then... then alright..."
Zuo Nan nodded reluctantly and said.
"But before that, I need to settle a score with an old friend!"
As Zhang Chen spoke, he beckoned Chen Dahai and others to run over.
Then, a white mist slowly rose, tightly enveloping Zhang Chen and the others...
