Chapter 167 Human Leaders Are Blind to the Truth (20)
"Si Yan's favorable impression +5"
Seeing Shi Qi looking at his hand with undisguised concern, Si Yan inappropriately curled his lips and comforted Shi Qi, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Shi Qi frowned and looked up at him, her eyes showing complete disbelief in his statement that "everything is fine."
At this moment, Jiang Weilan, the "medic" in the back row, also rushed over: "Let me take a look."
Upon hearing this, Shi Qi withdrew his hand from checking the injury; although it was a perfectly normal action, Si Yan suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his heart the moment Shi Qi withdrew his hand, and he also felt somewhat displeased with Jiang Weilan who had suddenly interrupted.
"Fate Value -5"
Because Si Yan needs to receive treatment temporarily, He Chiyan has to take over the vanguard position for now: "Brother, are you alright?"
From the moment Si Yan fought the level seven zombie, He Chiyan clearly sensed that although both were level six ability users, Si Yan's strength was significantly higher than his. Now that even Si Yan had been injured in one blow, He Chiyan realized that he himself might not even be a match for this level seven zombie.
However, perhaps because of his duty as captain, although he was somewhat timid, he still resolutely stood in front after Si Yan was injured.
Si Yan: "Yeah, be careful. His ability seems to reflect damage." Fortunately, he didn't use his full strength to test him, otherwise he might have really been electrocuted by his own power.
"Huh? Counterattack?" He Chiyan was somewhat shocked: "Can it reflect all types of attacks?"
“I’m not sure, but he can reflect my lightning back at me.” Si Yan’s expression and tone were very serious. As the only person who had ever fought a zombie, he knew very well that this zombie was indeed difficult to deal with.
Compared to the tense atmosphere on their side, the zombie on the other side was much more relaxed. He reached out and dusted off the slightly charred parts of his clothes caused by Si Yan's lightning, then arrogantly said, "Is that all you've got? You charged at me without a word, I thought you were really that powerful." He then chuckled disdainfully.
His disdainful attitude was so infuriating that Zhang Lie immediately wanted to jump out and yell, "Hey! You dare mock our boss?!"
Before he could bravely step forward, Ye Xin stopped him, saying, "Calm down, don't go and get yourself killed."
Okay, Zhang Lie admitted that he had indeed gotten a little carried away. After Ye Xin stopped him, he knew that going up would be no different from causing trouble, so he obediently stayed where he was and gave up.
He could tolerate it, but some people couldn't.
Shi Qi, who had been standing guard beside Si Yan, stood up and walked towards the closest position to the zombie without warning.
"Shi Qi?!" Si Yan was completely taken aback, not understanding why Shi Qi had suddenly walked over, and only subconsciously called out to him.
Shi Qi ignored Si Yan's call and continued forward, walking to He Chiyan's side, staring coldly at the level seven zombie opposite him.
Seeing Shi Qi boldly step forward to "die," the zombie couldn't help but laugh again, this time with undisguised laughter: "Hahahaha! A level six has fallen, so you send a level five to die?"
He Chiyan also disagreed with Shi Qi's approach, so he whispered and advised, "Why don't you continue to take care of your captain? It's too dangerous here."
However, Shi Qi had no intention of paying him any attention. He flashed to the level seven zombie and then punched him hard.
"So fast!" He Chiyan exclaimed in amazement as Shi Qi suddenly disappeared before his eyes and reappeared in front of the zombies. He had never seen a superhuman with such speed.
The level seven zombie was already prepared to see the human make a fool of himself by being thrown back by his own force, but he didn't expect that this punch would send him staggering back several steps. Meanwhile, the level five human only took a barely perceptible step back.
His ability can almost reflect all superpowers of the same or lower level, so what kind of power does this human possess that makes this punch basically ignore his ability?
The level seven zombie raised its hand to cover its chest where it had just been hit, feeling a pain it hadn't felt in a long time, and couldn't help but take the level five human in front of it more seriously.
Shi Qi shook his right hand, which he had just used to fight the zombie, and then looked at his knuckles, which were slightly red from the recoil.
He only used less than 50% of his strength in that attack. If he had used his full strength, that level 7 zombie might have been pierced through the chest.
"No way, buddy, you're that strong? My concern just now was completely unnecessary!" He Chiyan stared wide-eyed in shock at the man in front of him who was almost unharmed.
However, Si Yan, who was receiving treatment, noticed Shi Qi's inconspicuous movement just now. So he tentatively moved his hand, which had been numb from the electric shock, and after feeling that it was okay to move, he brushed away Jiang Weilan's hand that was treating him and stood up.
Then she quickly walked up to Shi Qi, took his hand without saying a word, and sure enough, saw that his knuckles had turned bright red.
Si Yan's index finger gently brushed across Shi Qi's knuckles, tickling him as if scratching his heart. "Does it hurt?"
Shi Qi subconsciously shook her head, wanting to deny it, but upon seeing Si Yan's slightly furrowed brows, she stopped speaking, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, and changed her words, "A little..."
He Chiyan, standing to the side, was dumbfounded. Was this the same guy who was aloof and ignored everyone, the one who would throw a punch right away? Why did his face suddenly seem so gentle?
Hearing Shi Qi say "a little," Si Yan immediately felt a pang of heartache, and then, seemingly oblivious to everyone else, massaged Shi Qi's reddened knuckles a few times. Shi Qi tried to pull his hand away, but found that Si Yan had already gripped his wrist tightly.
The level seven zombie felt offended by their indifferent attitude, so it angrily retorted, "Are you treating me like I don't exist?!"
In fact, Shi Qi had already gotten a general idea of what was going on from that attack, so he said to Si Yan, "His counterattack can indeed reflect most attacks, but I can sense that his ability to reflect is limited."
"As long as I follow up with your attack immediately after I strike him, breaking through that limit shouldn't be a problem."
Si Yan asked hesitantly, "But your hand..."
Shi Qi shook his head: "Dealing with this zombie is the most important thing right now. My hands can hold up. Just tell me if you want to try?"
Seeing that Shi Qi had already said so, Si Yan no longer hesitated and nodded firmly: "Okay."
