Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

Chapter 30: Charlotte's superpower

How can a man say he's not capable?

If Elijah knew what Charlotte thought of him, he'd definitely make her experience his marksmanship firsthand.

Unfortunately, Elijah was too engrossed in his play, switching to a large sword without hearing what the two were saying.

"All brawn, no finesse!"

Charlotte was slightly disappointed.

"Elijah hasn't learned martial arts!"

Daisy defended Elijah, then walked over to the weapon rack herself.

"I'll pick a weapon too!"

Daisy remembered Elijah mentioning an axe before, so she picked it up to try.

She didn't have Elijah's strength, and holding it with one hand was a bit difficult. Eventually, she had to steady it with both hands.

After swinging it a couple of times, she felt her arms grow sore.

But even this was enough to astonish Charlotte!

If Elijah could wield it, she thought his strength must be considerable, perhaps even enhanced by some superpower.

She herself had undergone comprehensive physical enhancement after awakening.

However, Daisy's original strength was well-known to her. Previously, she could barely move it on the ground, let alone lift it.

"It's too heavy, not suitable for me!"

Daisy pouted.

"How did your strength increase so much, Daisy?"

Charlotte asked directly.

For her, as a martial enthusiast, strength wasn't the most important thing, but when it reached a certain level, it became crucial.

Even the most exquisite technique would be useless against this axe.

"Um... well..."

Daisy looked at Elijah with difficulty.

"Can I say it?"

Elijah set down the knife in his hand.

"Let me say it!"

He saw the room full of weapons and his hunter's heart rejoiced!

But after all, it wasn't his. Out of gratitude to Daisy, taking one each might be fine. They could compensate her later with supplies, but asking for more wouldn't be appropriate.

So, he had the idea of recruiting.

After all, besides weapons, Charlotte had also awakened abilities. These two points were sufficient, not to mention she was a beauty.

"I wonder how you see the future?"

Charlotte raised her eyebrows. "How? Probably lying down!"

"Um..."

"Just kidding!"

Charlotte chuckled lightly. "Your question is too broad, but I understand what you mean. I'm pessimistic!"

"Well, there are too many zombies in the urban area, water is scarce, not suitable for long-term survival. So, we want to find a new place. We've already selected a suitable target. I want to ask if you're willing to join us and leave here?"

"If I join your group, will you tell me how to enhance my strength?"

"Correct! Wait, what group? It's a team!"

Elijah's forehead twitched.

"Alright, I'll join!"

"Um..."

Charlotte's decisive agreement caught Elijah off guard, leaving him with a lot to say but holding it back.

"Don't you want to ask for more details? Like how many people are in our group? What you'll need to do..."

"It's our team!"

Charlotte corrected Elijah.

Elijah was speechless, being led into a pit!

"Hurry up, I've agreed. Why so many questions? Just spit it out!"

"But it's not just about saying it verbally!"

Elijah smiled faintly, extending his finger to break open the scab on his wound, squeezing out a drop of blood.

"You need to ingest this drop of my blood!"

Charlotte glanced at Daisy, seeing her cheerful expression, and knew there wasn't a problem.

Immediately, it dawned on her.

"Related to your ability?"

"Correct, but there's a reward for consuming it!"

Charlotte didn't hesitate, lowering her head to suck his finger into her mouth.

Elijah felt a small tongue deftly licking his finger, barely having time to savor it before it swiftly withdrew.

An invisible bond connected between the two.

After licking the blood, Charlotte kept a close eye on her body's changes.

She dared to consume Elijah's blood due to her trust in Daisy and her own ability.

Her awakened superpower wasn't as miraculous as Daisy's, merely enabling her to conduct microscopic examinations on her own body.

In simpler or more esoteric terms, she could introspect.

So, she also wanted to see what trick Elijah was up to.

Once the blood entered her body, it immediately transformed into an invisible energy, drilling into the back of her brain.

Charlotte closed her eyes, her consciousness not limited to her brain but extending along the meridians, tracing the path of that energy.

Soon, she found the energy attached to the back of her brain, rooted in her nerves, slowly siphoning her energy to sustain itself.

At the same time, she felt a sense of being watched.

As if someone was constantly peeping at her.

Charlotte immediately wanted to remove this energy.

She felt she could do it.

But after some thought, she didn't act immediately. Instead, she followed the feeling of being watched with her consciousness, rushing into that energy.

After a dizzying whirl, she was startled to find her consciousness leaving her body, surging towards Elijah through an invisible channel.

At that moment, another consciousness collided head-on with hers.

It was Elijah's consciousness.

The moment he received feedback from Charlotte's superpower, his consciousness also began to extend along the meridians, but his control wasn't proficient.

So, he rushed out along the frequent exchange of information.

The two consciousnesses converged and merged in the void.

In that moment, both felt a sense of being completely exposed in front of each other.

They left deep imprints in each other's consciousness.

Then they hurriedly retreated to their bodies.

They both opened their eyes simultaneously.

Their bodies involuntarily shuddered.

A blush spread across Charlotte's face.

"You..."

She started to speak but didn't know how to continue.

Elijah felt somewhat relieved!

Fortunately, just now it was only a trace of his consciousness, not carrying many thoughts and information, just pure curiosity.

Otherwise, his reincarnation might have been exposed.

But... what was that feeling of the merging of consciousness just now? It felt kind of good?

But thinking about how they had shown everything to each other in that moment, it made him both love and hate it.

"Welcome to our team!"

Elijah reached out his hand, Charlotte hesitated for a moment but shook it.

"Phew! Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief!"

Daisy said joyfully.

Although the mental clash just now seemed long, it was actually just a moment. To Daisy, they both behaved quite normally.

"Um, so Charlotte, what's your awakened ability? I've been wanting to ask but didn't dare to!"

Daisy looked at Charlotte curiously.

Elijah smiled faintly.

"I think it's introspection, like what's described in martial arts novels or fantasy novels! By the way, my ability is contract.

At the first level, I can control the zombies that have signed a contract with me. At the second level, I can mimic the abilities of those who have signed contracts with me!"

"So, the drop of blood just now was the medium for the contract?"

Charlotte suddenly understood.

Including how Elijah and the others managed to evade the numerous zombies outside and safely arrive here.

"Wait, second-level ability?"

Charlotte's eyes widened in surprise.
