"Master Feng, absorb the nuclei now. We'll help you look around," Jiang Zhi suggested.
It was rare for Jiang Xiu not to talk back to him. He nodded in agreement.
Qin Ren had the same opinion. After all, they still had to compete for the Prism Fruit later on. The stronger Master Feng was, the higher their chances of winning. He even found a chair and gestured for Master Feng to sit.
Jiang Zhi, who was at the side, was impressed. As expected of the No. 1 person under Master Feng. He had to learn.
When Jiang Xiu saw his brother's expression, he didn't need to think twice to know what his brother was thinking. Was Brother Qin the right hand man because of this? He was talented! Talent!
Jiang Xiu rolled his eyes speechlessly. If Master Feng wasn't here, he really wanted to punch him twice.
Regarding Jiang Zhi's suggestion, Yan Fenglang thought for a while before taking the nuclei to absorb. Firstly, it was to prevent the giant zombie from looking for him again, and secondly, it was to increase his level. There must be a lot of Level 4 special ability users in the city center this afternoon.

On the road.
The poker cards forced the giant zombie to change the direction of its attack, allowing Han Qichuan to catch his breath. A few more poker cards flew out.
This time, the target was not a zombie, but Han Qichuan. To be precise, it was the soil on Han Qichuan's leg.
Bam!
The soil shattered. After being set free, Han Qichuan quickly rolled to the side and escaped the zombie's attack range.
Han Qichuan turned to the source of the poker cards, wanting to see who had lent him a helping hand. The moment he saw it, his unchanging face revealed a rare surprised expression.
Yun You held a card fan in her hand. Big Orange, who was dozing off, stood on her shoulder and walked towards him.
Yun You pressed her fingers together, and the fan disappeared after the cards combined. Her fair wrist turned, and another poker card appeared out of thin air between her fingers.
Flipping again, the poker card flew out and headed straight for the zombies.
The giant zombie was actually forced to dodge left and right by the poker cards that were not even the size of its palm. It retreated step by step and did not dare to touch the poker cards at all.
Thud!
The zombie unintentionally waved another wooden stick and blocked the poker card.
The poker card was stabbed straight into the wooden stick and finally dissipated.
Yun You picked up another poker card, but she was not in a hurry to throw it out. Instead, she slowly approached. From the moment the poker card was revealed, the Strength Zombie had already retreated. The soil around it was a little restless. Clearly, it was ready to unleash its Earth-type ability on her.
Yun You walked to Han Qichuan's side and stopped. The zombies were already forced far away by her.
"Han Qichuan, are you alright? How are you?"
Yun You asked worriedly.
The few knocks just now did not look easy. One could imagine the strength of the Level 4 zombie's attack. Ordinary people might have been smashed into meat paste long ago.
If it weren't for the fact that the usage of the Master Poker ability had to be matched with the special boxed poker cards rewarded by the system, she wouldn't have wasted any time. Fortunately, it wasn't too late now.
"I'm okay."
Han Qichuan shook his head at Yun You.
Han Qichuan got up from the ground. His scales disappeared, and his transformation ended. He couldn't help but cough twice and shake his numb arms.
Although the zombies' attacks were abnormally fierce, Han Qichuan was definitely not as seriously injured as Yun You had imagined.
His physicality was different from ordinary people to begin with. Coupled with the protection of the mutated scales, he only suffered some physical pain. At most, it was very painful. He was not seriously injured.
In fact, Han Qichuan didn't feel much pain either. For some reason, this pain was like a common occurrence for him. It was even worse than a common occurrence.
He vaguely felt that he had experienced something a thousand times more painful than this.
Yun You sighed softly. She suddenly realised that as long as he was still alive, everything else was fine for Han Qichuan. It seemed that she had to personally check to know the extent of his injuries.
Roar—
The zombie's angry roar was earth-shattering.
After the poker cards were blocked and dissipated, the zombie no longer felt the intimidating fear and began to jump again.
The two pieces of food in front of him looked very fragrant.
This zombie was a little afraid of Yun You now. However, it was still a zombie after all. It was bloodthirsty and devouring life was an instinct that was difficult to disobey. Moreover, it did not want to go against the natural instinct that came from the depths of its heart.
Yun You was still worried about Han Qichuan's injuries. It seemed that if she didn't deal with the zombies first, she wouldn't be able to see him.
She exhaled softly and raised her right hand. With a snap of her fingers, a card fan similar to the one from before appeared in her hand. Her arm drew a semicircle, and the poker cards from before floated in the air.
She pointed forward.
Aim and fire!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The zombie felt fear again the moment the poker cards appeared. It felt even clearer than last time, just like how it had once been locked onto by its king.
Instinctively, the Earth-type ability formed a shield in front of it, and it turned around and ran.
The shield blocked a few of them. The strength of the Level 4 Earth-type Arcana's full-strength defense could be imagined.
However, when A touched the shield, the entire shield shattered in less than a second.
Poker A's special effect—Breaking Barriers.
Han Qichuan was a little surprised. Even if he used his full strength now, he might not be able to break this shield.
He looked at the poker cards floating beside Yun You.
Controlling objects? The ability of psychic power. The boss also had psychic power?
Yun You, who had been mistaken for a very strong person, found it unbelievable.
[I'm actually so powerful. Then why did I want to hire bodyguards previously?!]
[Meow, you're using the experience time. It won't cost energy.]
Big Orange couldn't help but speak up to shatter her beautiful fantasy.
[?]
[Meow, that means that after today, it will consume energy to get the Poker Master ability to use it again. Meow, calculated in system coins.]
[Meow, and that box of poker cards has the effect of suppressing zombies. Meow, but if you hit someone, I guarantee that your poker cards won't even leave a mark.]
Big Orange continued to attack.
Yun You: "…"
She remembered that the most dangerous existence in the apocalypse seemed to be humans.
No, she had to find a bodyguard!
After the shield broke, several poker cards caught up to the zombies, but all of them missed their targets perfectly.
The only card that hit him only grazed him. Even though the poker card's effect on zombies was doubled, it only caused a wound.
The Strength-type zombie roared and ran away without looking back. Its cumbersome body also erupted with extreme speed and disappeared into the alley in the blink of an eye.
Big Orange covered its face with one paw. It could not bear to look at it.
This poop scooper was too embarrassing!
What kind of hellish master was this!
[Meow! Take aim and hit it!]
Yun You: "…"
She wanted to hit it, but it was her first time using it. Although her accuracy was a little poor, it was understandable!
In short, she had done her best.
Han Qichuan lowered his eyes and fell into confusion.
