The fist from Carl wasn't just an ordinary fist with his extreme strength, but it also had the red energy running through his hand. It was a full force hit, and Zain knew that he wouldn't be able to use his swords to block in time.
'If I get hit with that, I might very well be done for.' Zain thought. 'Because of my speed and strength, there's a good chance that Carl might have overestimated my strength, and there's a good chance this hit to my head could kill me.'
There was a reason why Zain thought this, and it was because his Endurance was the lowest stat he had. At the moment, it was set to 10 points. Originally, when Zain had become a zombie, he was opting for a control type.
One that would fight from a distance while mainly using his horde. For stronger enemies, he would come in at the last moment to take them out. If that failed, he also had his agility stat.
