Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

As Elijah fumbled behind her for a while, Hannah felt a tickling sensation on her neck and a sudden heat in her chest, prompting her to speak up.

"Is it done?"

"Yes, it's done!" Elijah reluctantly stepped away and moved to face her.

"Let me see!" he said, immediately struck by her beauty.

The necklace was stunning.

The sparkling snowflake rested perfectly between her collarbones, its brilliance accentuated by her milky white skin.

The way the light hit it made it hard to look away.

But it was Hannah's slightly flushed face that captivated Elijah even more.

Her normally cool demeanor now had a hint of shyness, with a light blush on her cheeks and her eyes downcast, avoiding his gaze.

"Wow, Sister Hannah, you look so beautiful with it on!" Lily's voice interrupted, snapping Elijah back to reality.

"Really?" Hannah asked, her shyness making her even more alluring.

Elijah's heart fluttered; he wanted nothing more than to hold her and cherish her.

"Yes, really!" he nodded, his earlier daze evident in his expression.

Lily circled around Hannah, showering her with more compliments before eagerly turning to Elijah.

"You had one for me too, right? Where's mine?"

"This is for you!" Elijah produced another box and opened it.

"Let me put it on you."

He didn't want to show favoritism.

"Okay!"

Elijah walked behind Lily. Unfortunately, she was wearing a long-sleeved jacket, obscuring any pleasant view.

However, from his height, looking over her head, he couldn't see the ground.

Despite being a full head taller than Lily, Elijah found the experience charming.

"This necklace is so unique!" Lily exclaimed once he had fastened it. She picked it up to examine it and saw it was made of seven small golden stars, forming a pattern reminiscent of a reclining figure seven.

"It looks like a little axe."

"Exactly! I chose it especially for you. As soon as I saw it, I thought of giving it to you."

"Thank you!" Lily expressed her delight.

"We're all family; no need for such formalities! Alright, it looks like we've sorted quite a bit of food for trading. Let's focus on the main task now."

The primary task was to transport essential supplies from the mall back to the island.

"I originally planned for the three of us to drive back together, but now there's an unexpected situation. We don't know when Quentin and his group might come, so someone needs to stay at the mall. I don't feel comfortable leaving either of you here alone, so I'll stay. With my abilities and the nine zombies, including Abigail, no one can harm me.

I'm also not comfortable with you two driving alone, so take one truck back to familiarize yourselves with the route. When you return, we'll get another vehicle. Let's move these supplies as quickly as possible."

Hannah and Lily agreed with his plan.

The three of them headed to the warehouse entrance.

Lily eagerly volunteered to drive.

She lacked driving experience and needed to practice, while Hannah was more seasoned, even if her experience was mostly with cars.

Elijah instructed Hannah to guide Lily.

With a smile, Lily took the driver's seat and started the vehicle, carefully pulling away.

The distance to Azure Isle was only about five or six kilometers.

Given that both Lily and Hannah were ability users, with one skilled in offense and the other in defense, Elijah wasn't too worried about their safety.

As Elijah watched the vehicles disappear from view, he found himself with some free time and began to wander around the exterior of the mall.

With the interior zombies cleared out, they could only fight nearby zombies and collect corpse cores while searching for another truck to load supplies.

In a nearby residential area not far from the mall, several men were gathered, including Samuel and Ryan.

Under Samuel's persuasion, the two men who had also been to the mall agreed to join their operation. However, the others were not very supportive of Quentin.

Upon hearing from the returnees about how amazing three women in the mall were, even more beautiful than celebrities, they immediately became interested.

After some temptation from Samuel, they agreed without much thought.

"Now that everyone is here, Ryan, when shall we go? The guys can't wait to have fun with those women!" Samuel chuckled.

"We can go now, but I'm afraid Quentin will stop us from going out," Ryan said with narrowed eyes.

"Quentin is busy with other matters now, he doesn't have time to bother us!" another person who had been to the mall chimed in.

"Oh? What happened?" Ryan asked.

"That idiot William suddenly turned into a zombie just now and injured two people who were collecting corpse cores..."

Ryan glanced at Samuel upon hearing this. Samuel's face also showed surprise, then he gritted his teeth and said, "This is a rare opportunity, let's act immediately! If we control the mall, Quentin will have to listen to us!"

"Alright!"

"Hell yeah!"

"Living the good life!"

"Chasing women!"

The men echoed their agreement and began to move. Ryan pulled Samuel aside and asked quietly, "Did you make stupid William eat the corpse core?"

"I told him it was candy, I didn't see him eat it with my own eyes, but Quentin had the residents collect corpse cores, so maybe he couldn't resist eating it..." Samuel replied.

"Damn, it seems like the corpse cores aren't meant to be used like this, but they must have some use, otherwise, Elijah wouldn't spend so much effort collecting them."

"It's simple, once we capture him, we'll interrogate him properly..."

Unaware that someone was observing him, Elijah received a message through his mental link just after he finished clearing the zombies near the warehouse door. Someone's position was rapidly changing, heading towards the mall at high speed.

"It's Hannah and Fiona! How did they come back so quickly?" Elijah wondered. He returned to the warehouse door to wait.

Before long, he saw a truck speeding towards them. "They even changed vehicles!" Elijah thought to himself.

The vehicle stopped steadily at the warehouse door, and Fiona got out of the car. She had changed her clothes, wearing a tactical vest on top, pencil pants on the bottom, and a pair of black Martin boots, completely overturning Elijah's impression of her.

"Why are you here?" Elijah stared at her slender legs for a moment.

"How's this? Not bad, right?" Fiona lifted her chin slightly without answering him.

"Tsk, I thought you looked familiar, borrowed Daisy's clothes, didn't you?"

"Fiona rolled her eyes contemptuously. "That's because someone lost their mind, always bringing back revealing clothes!"

Meanwhile, Hannah, seeing Elijah being teased, smiled slightly, suppressing her laughter.

"Alright, let's get down to business! I heard from Hannah about the situation, so I discussed it with Charlotte and decided to come instead. My abilities can catch them off guard, just in case!" Elijah nodded.

Fiona then patted the car lane, "It's a waste of time to wait for unloading. There are several trucks at the service area by the riverbank. Let's keep going without resting."

"You've thought this through!" Elijah praised her.

"Let's continue loading!" Fiona waved her hand and walked alone towards the mall.

"What are you looking for?" Elijah asked.

"A secret!"

"Who cares!" Elijah turned to Hannah, "Do you know?"

Hannah's cold face revealed a slight smile. "Can you guess?"
