Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

Elijah appeared to be casually directing Lily and the others to load supplies from the convenience store, as if he didn't know anything was amiss.

However, secretly, he continuously activated Sophia's perception ability, probing the southwest direction.

Over ten minutes passed without any movement there, exactly as Sophia had mentioned, with no suspicious figures in sight.

Just as Elijah began to doubt Sophia's sensing abilities, a figure suddenly appeared in his perception!

Finally, he's moved!

Elijah felt a surge of excitement but maintained a poker face.

His gaze casually swept towards where the person was supposed to be.

Yet, the next moment, his expression briefly darkened before returning to normal. Inside, though, he was far from calm.

In Elijah's perception, the person was standing openly under a tree, without much high cover around.

However, when Elijah looked directly there, he found nothing—as if there was no one there at all.

But in Elijah's perception, the person was relaxed, moving stealthily closer to them like a ghost.

"Invisibility ability?" Elijah guessed inwardly. He was sure it wasn't Daisy's invisibility since the person was under direct sunlight, not in shadow.

Elijah covertly tracked his movements, staying vigilant against any sudden attack.

However, when the person approached within twenty meters of Elijah's group, he suddenly stopped and pulled out a crossbow from behind him.

Elijah immediately recognized it as a genuinely lethal crossbow, not a toy.

In the previous world, crossbows were highly favored for their effectiveness against zombies and in ambushes.

The quality varied widely—cheap ones were ineffective while expensive ones rivaled firearms in damage and range.

The crossbow in the person's hand looked crude, clearly homemade, and pulling it out at 20 meters suggested it had limited effective range.

Despite this, Elijah didn't let his guard down.

He marveled at the person's intelligence for combining invisibility with a crossbow for long-range attacks.

Without perception abilities, it would be nearly impossible to detect such an assailant.

Unfortunately for him, he encountered Elijah now.

If Elijah weren't worried about switching off his perception and accidentally alerting the person, he had several ways to deal with him.

For instance, he could switch to Fiona's telekinesis and control bone spikes for a surprise attack.

However, bone spikes lacked sufficient killing power at a 20-meter range.

If the first strike failed, he'd need to switch back to Sophia's perception, risking the person's escape.

Gabriel's speed ability posed similar challenges—if Elijah didn't apprehend him immediately, the invisibility could be used to evade capture.

Thus, Elijah relied on Sophia's perception and his own skills for the most secure approach.

Seeing the person readying the crossbow arrow for a lethal shot, Elijah no longer held back.

He propelled himself towards the person with powerful leg movements.

The invisible person had just loaded the arrow but saw Elijah charging towards him.

In an instant, Elijah covered half the distance.

Realizing he was discovered, the person didn't hesitate.

He aimed the crossbow at Elijah, pulled the trigger, and then without looking, turned and ran.

As he ran, he wondered how he was discovered. Could Elijah be a perception user?

But how could he move so fast if he were?

He held onto a sliver of hope, thinking Elijah might have been tipped off by someone else in their group who had perception abilities, not Elijah himself.

Therefore, he didn't run in a straight line but zigzagged, constantly changing his position to exploit his invisibility and shake off Elijah.

Meanwhile, Elijah didn't dodge the arrow but let it strike him, knowing his speed wouldn't diminish.

Coupled with the invisibility user's erratic movements, he was caught up to in the blink of an eye. Stay tuned with m,v le,mpyr

Elijah swiftly thrust out a bright silver spear from his hand.

"Boom!"

The spear jabbed into the invisible person's scapula, the enormous force knocking him off balance. He tumbled to the ground, propelled by inertia, rolling until he hit a car and finally stopped.

At last, the invisibility dissolved, revealing a young man's face.

He struggled to get up, fear evident in his eyes as he stared at Elijah.

He hadn't expected this person not only to take his crossbow bolt head-on but also to catch up to him so quickly.

Moreover, he could accurately pinpoint his location even while he was invisible and possessed such immense strength.

Who on earth was this guy, and what abilities did he possess?

He tried to struggle to stand up, but his scapula was in excruciating pain, as if it were broken.

His hands and legs were injured from the fall just now, so he couldn't get up on his first attempt.

And then, the man was already standing in front of him.

He immediately surrendered, begging, "Big brother, spare me! I know where there's a massive amount of supplies, enough to live comfortably for a lifetime!"

Elijah stopped, not moving further.

Though Elijah appeared calm and cold on the surface, inside he was in turmoil. He didn't strike not because of the plea for mercy, but because of the man's appearance.

This man was someone he knew!

Someone who had driven him to a dead end in a past life!

And in this life, an enemy he had longed to personally kill!

Nathan!

No wonder he had invisibility powers.

In a previous life, it was his invisibility that had successfully ambushed Elijah, forcing him to lure the zombie horde and perish together.

But immediately Elijah had a doubt.

Shouldn't Nathan be in the western suburbs?

Why did he come here?

Was it that he had not yet encountered Matthew, or did he have some other purpose for coming here?

"Big brother?"

Seeing Elijah lost in thought, Nathan tried to stand up and escape, but at that moment, several unusually beautiful women surrounded them.

"What ability does he have? How come we couldn't see him earlier?" Lily wondered.

She had been startled when Elijah suddenly attacked, and then was hit by an arrow.

"Probably some kind of invisibility ability!" Fiona glanced at Elijah and her intuition told her that Elijah seemed to know this person.

"Exactly!"

At this moment Elijah also finished his thoughts and looked at Nathan.

"Who are you? Why did you ambush us?"

As he spoke, he pulled the arrow out of his body and gestured towards him.

Nathan then noticed that his crossbow bolt had only pierced the other's skin a little, and hardly at all.

How strong must his defense and muscle strength be?

And more incredibly, the wound in front of him closed in the blink of an eye.

"Self-healing?" Nathan wondered.

"I'm asking you a question!"

Elijah said, kicking Nathan's leg hard.

"Ah!"

Nathan cried out in pain, then forcibly held back, looking at Elijah with a fawning expression, but his hatred and resentment in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

"Big brother ... I ... I didn't mean it. I just thought these ladies were too beautiful, so I thought ... Big brother, I didn't hurt you guys, please spare me! I ...

I know a place, there's a massive amount of supplies there, as long as we get them, we'll never have to worry about food or drink for the rest of our lives!"

"Oh?"

Elijah replied extremely coldly, seeming completely uninterested in the so-called supplies.

"What's your name?"

"Nathan!"

Nathan honestly answered.

"What was your purpose for coming here?"

Nathan was about to make up a lie, but then he heard Elijah say, "I forgot to tell you, we have the ability to detect lies here. If you don't tell the truth, this arrow will go back into your body just the way it was!"

Nathan immediately swallowed hard. Although he didn't quite believe Elijah's claim about detecting lies, he couldn't be sure whether it was true or false.

What if it's true?

Given his fierceness, he might really be shot with an arrow.

Anyway, it's not something he can't say.

Thinking this, Nathan immediately changed his tune, "I came here to find someone!"

"Who are you looking for?"

"Olivia, the daughter of our leader!"
