As soon as Yu Fei finished speaking, a beautiful figure appeared in front of He Jingqian.
"Captain, I'm here." Chen Yao took her things and got out of the car, not forgetting to thank Yu Fei: "Thank you Captain Yu for giving me a ride."
Yu Fei smiled and waved his hand: "Don't be polite, we are all family." Then he left with his team members.
He Jingqian looked at the man in front of him who seemed to have recovered his spirits and asked with concern: "Why are you here? Have you recovered?"
Chen Yao nodded and said, "Well, I've almost recovered, so I came over to help."
He Jingqian pursed his lips and was about to say that he would take her with him later when he heard Xu Jia's enthusiastic voice behind him: "Chen Yao! Why are you here?!"
He Jingqian: ...
Huh? Why is he everywhere?
Xu Jia trotted over, panting slightly, and spoke to Shen Yao: "It's very dangerous here. This area is full of fierce and tall level one mutant zombies. There are too many to kill. Do you want to go with them to kill zombies?"
Chen Yao: "That's right, I came here just to follow them to kill zombies."
Xu Jia: "But, it's really dangerous over there. How about you stay behind with me? Let's..."
He Jingqian interrupted him directly: "No need, I will be responsible for taking care of Chen Yao. Don't worry, I will protect her."
Xu Jia choked, "Captain...Captain."
Why is the captain like this?
He Jing raised an eyebrow, "What?"
Xu Jia curled his lips: "Okay..."
Chen Yao specifically explained to him: "Xu Jia, I prefer running to the front compared to the back."
As she spoke, she clenched her hands and said eagerly to He Jingqian, "Let's go, Captain. I want to try my ability now."
He Jingqian: "Let's go."
Xu Jia looked at their backs as they left, frowning: I don’t know why, but I always have a very strange feeling?
…
As He Jingqian led Chen Yao around the other side of the zombie swarm, he pulled out a handful of crystal cores from his pocket and handed them to her, saying, "I dug these out from the heads of level one mutant zombies. Take them and use them to replenish your energy later."
Chen Yao didn't take all the crystal cores from his hand. She only took a few of them, placed them in her palm and examined them carefully. She said, "So this is what a zombie's crystal core looks like. But how do I use it?"
Although she had absorbed the crystal core of a giant mutant turtle and roughly knew how to absorb the energy of the crystal core, this was her first time in front of He Jingqian, so she pretended not to understand and asked him for advice.
So, He Jingqian directly...taught her step by step how to use her mind to absorb the energy of the crystal core.
His broad palm held her soft and delicate little hand, and then held it tightly...
Before long, the energy of the crystal cores in Chen Yao's hands was completely absorbed and turned into powder.
He Jingqian then withdrew his hand and told her, "That's good."
After he finished speaking, he wrapped up all the crystal cores in his hand and put them in her pocket, saying, "You have many special powers and consume a lot of energy. I'll give you all of these so that you can replenish them in time."
Chen Yao looked at the large bag of crystal cores and refused, "No, Captain, this is too much for me to take. You should keep it for yourself."
As she said this, she was about to take the crystal core out of her pocket and return it to him.
Seeing this, He Jingqian directly held her hand and said, "Don't worry, I still have some, and these are left for you. To deal with these zombies, endurance is essential. Without the crystal core, it will be difficult for you to hold on."
Chen Yao then accepted it and said, "Thank you, Captain. I'll give you some when I dig up the crystal core."
He Jingqian smiled but didn't nod.
…
When Chen Yao followed He Jingqian to the zombie group, they had already destroyed most of the blocking high walls and buildings, leaving only exposed steel bars and concrete shivering in the air, which shows how destructive this group of zombies is.
Chen Yao pursed her lips, and quickly transformed a sharp ice blade into something, which she attacked directly at the neck of the nearest zombie. She used all her strength in this swing.
With a "chi" sound, the ice blade quickly penetrated the zombie's neck and cut off its head.
After seeing the results, Chen Yao narrowed her eyes slightly, and condensed several ice blades in her hands, and quickly attacked different zombies.
Soon, several more zombie heads fell to the ground.
Seeing how well she performed, He Jingqian couldn't help but smile. She was really decisive.
When he saw her use the scimitar in her hand to dig out the crystal core from the zombie's head neatly and efficiently without blinking, he raised his eyebrows with admiration in his eyes.
In the following time, they attacked the zombies together, and their killing efficiency became much higher.
Chen Yao took advantage of the good opportunity and directly threw out all the supernatural skills that she wanted to practice, and used them on the zombies without hesitation.
From ice blades, to water swords, to thunder balls, wood vines, and fire cages...
After practicing again and again, the crystal cores in her pocket were consumed faster and faster, almost without her realizing it.
Until the system reminded her: "Host, you have now become a third-level mutant."
Chen Yao then stopped, a little confused by this concept: "Third-level mutant?"
System: "Yes, although humans haven't yet established such a concept, as far as I know, your current level has reached the third level. Haven't you noticed? Your attack speed and movement speed have increased significantly."
Chen Yao finally realized that this was indeed the case. However, if she was at level three, what level was He Jingqian at? So she asked the system, "What about He Jingqian? What level is he at now?"
After checking, the system replied to her: "He Jingqian is now at the fourth level."
Chen Yao raised an eyebrow. Fourth level? Then she was still a little behind him and needed to continue practicing hard.
Then, the movements of her hands throwing skills suddenly became faster, and her eyes became more determined.
The system was in tears. Its original intention was to let the host know that he had become more powerful, and then stop and rest. Who would have thought...
Not only did its host not stop, but he fought even harder?

Yaoyao: No, I have to catch up with He Jingqian as soon as possible. I don’t want to be weaker than him.
He Jingqian: What? My wife wants to pursue me?
