Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

"Fiona sighed, "If only you had come a few days earlier..."

She thought of her female bodyguard. If it weren't for not understanding the virus mechanism, she wouldn't have been suddenly bitten and killed by other survivors turned zombies.

"I'm sorry! I'm not blaming you, just a bit regretful!"

"I understand." Elijah nodded. "Your focus is quite unique. You don't care about Isaac escaping, nor are you surprised that my ability is second-tier."

"Now that this place belongs to you, it's natural for you to worry about Isaac's threat."

Fiona chuckled lightly.

"As for your second-tier ability, it's not surprising at all! Knowing that Hannah awakened a miraculous ability and became more proficient and powerful with its usage, I guessed that there would be a qualitative change one day."

Elijah gave her a thumbs up and then took out a corpse core.

Fiona was immediately drawn to it.

"This is a crystallization produced by the zombie's brain, I call it a corpse core. I need you to help me collect them. None of the zombies you and Isaac killed have been searched. It's not dangerous, just a bit disgusting..."

"What's the use of this corpse core? Can humans eat it?"

"No, they can't."

"If humans can't eat it, then it must be something zombies can eat..."

Fiona nodded.

??

How did she guess that?

Elijah was stunned. Women are too smart, it seems. You can't hide anything from them.

Elijah felt like wiping the nonexistent sweat off his forehead! The pressure was overwhelming!

"We'll collect these corpse cores for you. Is there any benefit to us?"

"A way to awaken your abilities, how about that?"

Fiona looked puzzled at first, then her eyes lit up.

Seeing her change in expression, Elijah finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if you're smart, there are some things you can't understand or guess.

"Elijah~ You said yesterday that we're all family now, why be so formal? Why not tell me now?"

Fiona's tone was gentle, her smile beautiful, with a kind of coquettish charm unique to women.

"??"

Wait, aren't you women so fickle?

Elijah looked at her natural transition, feeling like he was seeing her in a new light.

This woman always had a calm and elegant demeanor, but now she showed a more girlish side.

Elijah found it interesting. Maybe this was Fiona's true self, and she was just putting on a front when she was outside?

Well, as the heir of a large corporation and the initiator and leader of the Azure Isle project, she had to maintain elegance and dignity in public, so as not to be underestimated.

Elijah wanted to tease her a bit, so he said, "Since we're already family, why don't you call me husband?"

"I have my limits, hmph!"

Fiona's smile froze, and she snorted coldly.

She glanced casually at the other women, who were busy and hadn't noticed them, then said, "Do you really have a way to awaken abilities?"

"Of course, I have no reason to lie to you about this, since we'll be living together in the future!"

Elijah looked at her changing expression with a smile.

Fiona suddenly leaned closer, and the two of them were almost sticking together. She lightly bit her lip and whispered in his ear, "Husband~"

Her voice was sweet and charming.

Elijah shivered!

From head to toe!

Then he looked around nervously, especially at Daisy. He didn't want to be caught in the act.

Just a moment ago, they were humming and snuggling in the room, and now they were flirting with other women here.

If Daisy saw this, he was afraid she'd pull out her over a meter long knife!

She really had one!

Elijah moved away from Fiona a bit, but before he could speak, he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you a person with boundaries? Your boundaries seem quite wide?"

Fiona resumed her indifferent look.

"Please don't believe in a merchant's boundaries, especially a woman's!"

Moreover, it's just coquetry, and it doesn't matter if no one sees it. You can even freeload some benefits!

A hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

Elijah was taken aback, then chuckled, "I'm not losing out either way, since I was going to tell you guys anyway!"

Fiona remained noncommittal. She didn't believe in promises; what she could get her hands on was the most practical.

Seeing no change in her expression, Elijah looked a bit disappointed. Then he took out a police water bottle from the side pocket of his backpack and pointed to the zombie grass inside.

"Have you seen this plant?"

Fiona had actually noticed it in the morning and had been wondering why they were carrying a piece of grass. Now, upon closer inspection, she immediately noticed the plant's uniqueness.

The plant itself didn't look remarkable; there were plenty of roadside flowers and grasses that looked similar, none of which she recognized.

The only distinguishing feature was the pale patterns on the leaves, as if emitting light.

It felt as though, on a pitch-black night, one saw a group of fireflies circling around this plant, occasionally disappearing into the leaves.

The fluorescence made the plant appear bright and dazzling, standing out from the rest.

"Could this plant awaken abilities in people?" Fiona pondered.

"Exactly! But not this particular plant, but this type of plant. Their characteristics are obvious, and I believe you can discern them too!"

"This should be a new plant that emerged after the virus outbreak?!" Though phrased as a question, Fiona's tone was affirmative, not expecting Elijah to answer.

"So, what are the conditions required for this plant to be given to me and become your woman?"

"Um... this particular one has already been reserved!" Elijah didn't give a clear answer.

Fiona's eyes immediately changed again, with a hint of charm in her voice as she said, "Then can I reserve the next one?"

She's like a siren! Elijah's scalp tingled, but what was more nerve-wracking was what came next.

"What next one?" Daisy walked over, curious.

"Um, Fiona was asking if she could reserve the next zombie grass!" Elijah coughed twice abruptly.

"Oh, I see. Zombie grass is not easy to find!"

"We'll talk about it once we find it!" Fiona looked at Elijah with a smirk.

Elijah pretended not to notice and said to Daisy, "I've finished explaining, let's get ready to leave!"

"Yeah!" Having eaten and drunk their fill, Daisy's energy had recovered, and even her gait was much more natural.

The two returned to their room, changed back into their anti-stabbing police suits and equipment, grabbed their weapons, and then walked out of the hotel again.

A electric sightseeing car was already parked at the hotel entrance, and Fiona and the other four women were waiting nearby.

"There are only these sightseeing cars on the island now. If you need other vehicles, you can go to the service area by the shore to change!"

"It's enough!" Elijah nodded, taking the driver's seat this time.

Why not let Daisy drive? He was afraid she'd drive into the sea!
