He has always trusted his intuition, not to mention that after mastering the Heavenly Eye, his intuition has become an instinct, an instinct to sense danger in advance.
"Then I'll stay by your side!" Ning Yanlan still trusted Jiang Yuan; the two had worked together seamlessly for the past four days.
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to be so skilled in the third-tier psionic system!"
Zhu Penghai clapped, his eyes full of approval.
"Just lucky!" Ning Yanlan said with a smile, while remaining vigilant about her surroundings.
Jiang Yuan's expression never relaxed. A powerful aura, faint yet palpable, emanated from the underground warehouse, and he needed to find the source of this aura.
Seeing Jiang Yuan's expression, Qian Kai and Zhou Guang laughed. Qian Kai stepped forward and said, "Brother, still not convinced?"
The two assumed that Jiang Yuan was still shaken by the giant centipede from earlier, which explained his terrified appearance. After all, he was still an unawakened being, so it was understandable that he would be frightened when faced with such a terrifying monster.
Ning Yanlan immediately stepped forward to explain, "My husband isn't used to the environment here, so he's a little..."
Ning Yanlan then gave an awkward smile. Jiang Yuan remained silent, a faint sense of crisis lingering in the underground warehouse; he couldn't let his guard down.
"Xu Lian, would you like to officially join our team?" Zhu Penghai extended an olive branch.
"Didn't we join?" Ning Yanlan asked, puzzled.
"This is not a temporary team, but a team that will continue to work together!" Zhu Penghai smiled and said, "The world has changed drastically, and going it alone is not an option! If you want to live a better life in the apocalypse, you must have a strong team."
“If you join, Jiang Yuan can come too! Once we become a team, our relationship will be like that of family. Even if Jiang Yuan can’t awaken his spirit and become an evolver, we will protect him!” Zhu Penghai immediately replied, not wanting to lose such an excellent psionicist.
The power of the psychic type is far greater than that of the physical type. This is an evolved being who can communicate with the power of heaven and earth. Just like before, Ning Yanlan's output completely overwhelmed Zhu Penghai, who was at the same level.
"Let us go back and think about it!" Ning Yanlan definitely wouldn't agree. First, she didn't like too many people, and second, based on Xiang Yeyun's previous exclusion of the two of them, she couldn't trust anyone.
"Xu Lian, it's best for those with a psychic energy type to stick with those with a strength type, otherwise no one will be able to protect you!" Zhou Guang also advised.
"That's right!" Qian Kai nodded after hearing this. "Psionic types are very weak in close combat and need the protection of strength types!"
Zhu Penghai looked at Jiang Yuan and then said, "Jiang Yuan, aren't you going to reconsider? For the sake of your wife's safety too!"
Jiang Yuan frowned, his sense of crisis growing stronger, and he grabbed Ning Yanlan's wrist.
"Why don't we go see what's in the warehouse first!" Ning Yanlan didn't want to talk to them about these things; she just wanted to fill her cute little storage ring.
Zhu Penghai frowned. He thought Ning Yanlan disagreed because of Jiang Yuan, but after thinking for a moment, he didn't say anything more and nodded, "Alright, let's go and collect some supplies first!"
The world has changed in just a few days, so it's normal that people can't change their old views on love. He believed that Ning Yanlan would change her mind soon. After all, it's impossible to walk side by side with an 'ordinary person,' just like a tiger and a sheep can never be friends.
Qian Kai and the others shrugged helplessly. He tilted his head and said, "Let's go inside and find supplies!"
At that moment, Jiang Yuan's unease reached its peak. Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed by, and Jiang Yuan shouted, "Danger! Run!"
He shouted and ran away with Ning Yanlan, because he knew they couldn't win against this shadowy figure. Even the previous fourth-tier lord-level monster, the Earth Bear, couldn't give him a sense of danger, but this unknown creature made him have a crazy urge to escape.
Ning Yanlan never doubted Jiang Yuan, and having been reminded of him before, she immediately realized what was happening as soon as Jiang Yuan ran and rushed out with him.
Zhu Penghai and his companions were quite capable to survive in the monster horde; they formed a formation almost instantly, but the shadowy figure had already arrived.
"Holy Spirit Beast (severely injured), 7th-tier Lord level, Strength: 250 points (only able to exert 30% of its strength), Talent: ??? Weakness: ???"
Jiang Yuan only glanced back, but the data provided by the Heavenly Eye made him tremble with fear. How terrifying could 250 points of strength at the peak be?
One point of strength is equivalent to the explosive power of an adult male of 100 kilograms. 250 points is 25 tons. In other words, this shadowy figure at his peak could easily lift a 25-ton weight. In addition, with the added value of skills and other techniques, this strength is definitely over 500.
In the blink of an eye, the dark figure had already rushed in front of Zhu Penghai and his companions.
"Stop them!" Zhu Penghai's eyes were bloodshot with rage. They never expected that such a powerful demonic beast was hidden here.
With a bang, the impact sent the four men flying dozens of meters before crashing solidly into a concrete wall. The weakest, Xiang Yeyun, coughed up blood and passed out, while Zhou Guang was even more unlucky, crashing into a sharp object and dying instantly. The two remaining men managed to stand up with their strong willpower, but they were both rendered incapable of fighting after just one move.
"We're doomed!" Zhu Penghai thought bitterly. They couldn't possibly withstand a monster of this level.
But at that moment, the shadowy figure turned around and ran towards Jiang Yuan.
