Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

These two female zombie sales assistants were not as exaggerated as the first one, but they were still quite noticeable.

One of the female zombies suddenly swelled up, her muscles bulging like they were inflated, and her height also increased noticeably.

The other zombie was quiet and did not show any particularly special behavior.

But if you got close, you would find that the temperature around her had risen significantly, becoming unusually hot.

After a moment, the two zombies' mental connection with Elijah stabilized.

Elijah immediately closed his eyes and began to receive information from the two female zombies.

Soon, a familiar power filled his body.

Elijah felt that his strength had become very great, as if he had endless strength and nothing was too heavy to move.

"Power ability! Good, good, awakening is good!"

Although it is still not as good as Lily's ability, Elijah is still very happy.

This means that even if Lily does not act with him in the future, he can also use this ability.

The power ability dissipated, and the sudden strength faded away.

Elijah clenched his fist, not sure if it was an illusion.

He felt that his strength seemed to have increased a bit more.

Elijah did not think deeply, but eagerly switched to the ability of the other female zombie.

With the energy flowing inside the body, he subconsciously snapped his fingers.

A faint flame appeared on his finger.

"Flames?"

Fiona stared at the flames that appeared out of thin air, astonished.

"An ability completely opposite of Hannah's!"

Elijah nodded.

Then, he casually flicked the flames from his fingers.

Elijah's strength was immense; the flame shot out like a bullet, hitting an abandoned cardboard box.

With a "boom," the box caught fire, igniting a large blaze.

"The temperature is very high; it can instantly ignite other flammable materials. It's somewhat threatening to humans, but not much to zombies. It can't be lethal right away. Unless it's aided by flammable materials like gasoline!"

Elijah commented.

"It would be great if you had the power of Fire Fist Ace!"

Hannah said.

"What? Hannah watches anime too?"

Elijah was very surprised.

"I... I've watched a little bit..."

Hannah tilted her head slightly, a bit embarrassed.

"It's not impossible to be like Ace!"

Elijah said, summoning energy within him. Flames immediately erupted from his fist.

"Fire Fist! Unfortunately, I can't shoot it out like Ace; it only works in close combat!"

"That's still amazing!"

Hannah looked at his fiery fist with bright eyes.

"Speaking of which, your ability is similar to Kuzan's! I wonder if you'll become as powerful as Kuzan after advancing, being able to freeze an entire sea in an instant!"

A trace of hope flashed in Hannah's eyes as she spoke.

Ever since she awakened this ability, she had always had such expectations.

But now, with her current ability, she could only freeze a basin of water!

Advanced...

Hannah knows that Elijah has advanced to the second level, and he must know how to advance.

She just didn't know if he could tell her!

What price would she have to pay?

Would she really have to be like Fiona?

Elijah had no idea what Hannah was imagining.

After testing his ability, he began circling the three zombie guides, trying to communicate with them.

Unfortunately, the three zombies were completely unresponsive, clearly different from Abigail.

"After Abigail mutated, she obviously regained some awareness and memory.

Although she still acts like a puppet, at least she recognized Daisy!

But why don't these three female zombies react at all?

However, they do follow my commands without resistance, just like Abigail.

Unlike the first wild mutated female zombie..."

Elijah couldn't figure it out.

Fiona wondered what he was doing.

Elijah explained the differences between Abigail and the three female zombies.

"I think it's because they've been zombified for too long, damaging their brain nerves.

So it's difficult for them to regain consciousness or memory.

But Abigail is different. According to you, she was zombified for only a couple of days before you contracted and controlled her.

Your ability might have slowed the degeneration of Abigail's brain nerves, allowing her to regain some consciousness and memory after mutating."

Elijah thought Fiona's analysis made sense.

So he stopped overthinking.

When he advances to the third tier, and then lets Abigail advance to the second tier, things will become clear! But that will take some time.

Currently, what he's most looking forward to is the potential surprises the remaining four zombies might bring him tomorrow.

After the three of them finished studying the mutated zombies, they continued loading the vehicle, working non-stop until around six in the evening, when Quentin and a few of his brothers finally arrived.

"Hey guys, we're back!"

"I thought you weren't coming today!"

Elijah remarked, slightly surprised.

"We drove here today, and clearing the roads took up a lot of time!"

Quentin explained, then noticed something unusual about one of the female zombies nearby.

Her ten-centimeter-long nails were gleaming with a cold, menacing light—impossible to overlook.

I remember this female zombie didn't look like this yesterday...

Quentin had a strong impression of Elijah's female zombies.

Could it be... this zombie really awakened as Elijah said?

"Elijah, has this female zombie awakened?"

Quentin asked directly, not holding back his question.

"Oh, this one hasn't awakened any abilities, just mutated a pair of sharp claws."

Elijah replied, then ordered the female zombie to scratch the vehicle's cargo box.

With a screeching sound, deep scratches were left on the surface of the box.

"Hiss!"

Quentin and his brothers inhaled sharply.

Wow, if that scratched a person, wouldn't it tear off some flesh?

If it stabbed into the chest or stomach, wouldn't it disembowel someone?

Terrifying!

Moreover, this zombie seemed to be targeting Quentin's defensive capabilities.

They suddenly felt that the invincible Quentin wasn't so formidable anymore!

"Quentin, what do you think?"

"Amazing!" Quentin replied, still a bit shaken, giving a thumbs up.

"Really? I'm not very satisfied. It hasn't awakened any abilities!" Elijah sighed helplessly.

Quentin glanced at the other two zombies lined up.

"Have those two zombies awakened any abilities?"

"They're okay, just average! Let's not talk about that. Quentin, how much food do you plan to trade for today?" Elijah smiled slightly, changing the subject.
