Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

The seventeenth day of the apocalypse!

Morning!

A group of people gathered around the dining table, enjoying breakfast.

Today's breakfast included steamed buns, dumplings, pickles, sausages, braised eggs, bread, and more.

Some were pre-packaged ready-to-eat foods, some were freshly made by Bella and Hannah, and some were leftovers from yesterday.

Everyone picked according to their preferences.

Elijah chose steamed buns and sausages.

He broke open a plump, white bun, stuffed it with a sausage, and savored it with delight.

He finished with a bowl of thick, fully-cooked rice porridge, feeling satisfied as the day began.

Lily, sitting opposite Elijah, blushed as she watched him eat with such pleasure, his face full of satisfaction.

She couldn't help but think about last night.

"Did Elijah do it on purpose?" Lily mumbled softly.

Her face flushed, heart racing, she avoided looking at him and focused on her food.

On the other side, Jasmine squinted her eyes, blowing on the still-hot rice porridge before taking small sips.

The slightly hot porridge warmed her whole body as it flowed down her throat and into her stomach, instantly recovering the energy she had lost practicing physical techniques that morning.

At the same time, Jasmine mused to herself: Today, her strength had increased significantly.

Seeking Elijah's help indeed worked, and consuming his... essence was even more effective!

Jasmine had discovered a shortcut to rapidly enhance her physical strength through physical training, even without awakening.

But it did take a toll on Elijah!

However, she couldn't monopolize Elijah every day.

If she drained him for ten or fifteen days straight, she might even awaken her abilities through this method.

But she couldn't do nothing either!

Jasmine made up her mind. Last night, they could enjoy the summer evening breeze under the trees, sharing the night with the cicadas.

Today, they could try something different!

After all, Elijah could communicate with her telepathically.

Like last night, she suddenly received a message in her mind, inexplicably knowing where Elijah wanted her to wait.

She didn't doubt it, didn't hesitate, and went immediately.

Sure enough, Elijah was there waiting.

If it worked last night, it could work in the future too!

Midnight secret rendezvous, leaving their marks all over the island...

Jasmine believed Elijah wouldn't refuse, but she needed to prepare as well.

Maybe today, she would go pick some interesting clothes.

Elijah, unaware of their thoughts, focused on his breakfast, replenishing the energy he lost last night.

Sometimes, he wondered, if not for his enhanced physique from his awakening abilities, dealing with so many beautiful women would have worn him out.

But now, thanks to his robust physique, incredible recovery ability, and Charlotte's powers, which allowed him to operate his body with precise control, he could enjoy such blessings.

Hence, improving his strength was crucial, both for fighting zombies outside and for dealing with beauties at home.

This morning, he had exerted immense willpower to get up early and practice the Hun Yuan Technique.

Otherwise, he would have been reluctant to part from Lily's magnificent chest!

Soon, everyone finished breakfast. Charlotte led a team northward again, training by killing zombies, expanding the safe zone to the north, and collecting necessary supplies.

Elijah and Fiona planned to continue south.

About 6 kilometers south of Azure Isle, there was a gas station.

Their goal was to clear the road to the gas station. Recently, they had been using fuel extracted from vehicles on the road, which was enough for now.

This was because they hadn't been using vehicles very frequently, but in the future, that might not be the case.

As the exploration distances increase, vehicle usage will become increasingly frequent and crucial, so stockpiling gasoline and diesel is necessary.

Yesterday, they established a two-kilometer buffer zone to the south; now, they only need to advance another four kilometers to reach the gas station.

This four-kilometer stretch doesn't need to be entirely cleared; they just need to create a passable road.

Elijah's team remained the same as yesterday. He, along with Fiona, Hannah, Lily, and Sophia, drove straight to the southern buffer zone's edge.

As they arrived and prepared to clear the road, several box trucks approached from the direction of the mall.

Lily and Sophia immediately became vigilant, while Elijah and Fiona watched the approaching vehicles with ease.

"They're probably Quentin and his team moving house," Fiona remarked.

"Yes, given the direction and the number of trucks, it must be them," Elijah confirmed with a nod.

Hearing this, Lily and Sophia relaxed. The convoy soon arrived at the intersection, and the leading truck stopped.

Quentin and Ivy emerged from the driver's and passenger's seats.

"Boss, did you come to welcome us because you knew we were moving?" Quentin asked with a happy grin.

"You're overthinking it. We just happen to be clearing the road south," Elijah responded.

"Uh..." Quentin was momentarily taken aback, but Ivy quickly intervened.

"South? Boss, are you heading to the gas station four kilometers away?" she asked.

"That's right," Elijah confirmed with a nod.

Fiona took a moment to scrutinize Ivy, impressed by her ability to deduce their destination from the direction alone.

Fiona believed Ivy must have memorized all the nearby map information, ready to retrieve relevant details whenever needed.

"Ah, the gas station. That's definitely a spot worth securing in advance. Fuel is more precious than food," Quentin agreed.

"Since you've safely arrived here, the remaining distance should be even safer. Hurry up with the move. Once you're settled at Azure Isle, I'll give you a bottle of awakening potion," Elijah offered.

"Got it, we'll get right to it. Thanks, boss!" Quentin's enthusiasm surged. He quickly ended the conversation, pulling Ivy back into the truck.

The convoy resumed, heading towards Seabreeze Terrace.

The drivers behind, all of whom Elijah had met before, waved in respect as they passed.

There were a total of seven trucks, with the last driven by Zachary, who gave Elijah a toothy grin and shouted, "Boss!"

Elijah waved back.

The noise from Quentin's convoy disturbed some zombies in the nearby neighborhoods.

Those near the gates began to wander out, trailing behind the trucks.

As the trucks turned a corner and disappeared, the zombies were immediately drawn to Elijah and his team, lunging towards them.

"Everyone stand back; let me test my abilities!" Fiona suddenly announced, her eyes alight with excitement as two bone spikes, gleaming with a glazed finish, floated in front of her.

"Alright!" Elijah nodded.

Before Elijah could finish speaking, Fiona had already sent the two bone spikes flying at high speed.
