Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

Chapter 143: Is your ability to control electricity

Elijah walked into the kitchen and found some food already prepared, enough for four or five people judging by the portion size!

But in a while, Grace would awaken, and this amount of food might not be sufficient!

Elijah rummaged through some pre-packaged food in the villa's pantry and then brought all the food from the kitchen to the dining table.

By the time he finished this, Grace and Katherine had also returned, changed clothes. Grace was in the lead, holding Katherine's hand, rushing over eagerly.

After the close cooperation last night, the two were truly like sisters now.

"Elijah, is it ready?" Grace couldn't wait as soon as they entered the dining room.

"It's ready, I'll go get the zombie grass!"

Elijah turned and went into the spirit plants cultivation room.

The fourth leaf of the zombie grass, which had been ripened yesterday, had fully grown, and its effects were enough to awaken a person.

He cut off the roots, switched Bella's ability to healing, and when the zombie grass regained vitality, Elijah buried several corpse cores into it before coming out with the cut zombie grass.

"Have something to eat first!" Elijah smiled, seeing the longing look in Grace's eyes.

He now understood that these spirit plants contained a large amount of Chi, and when consumed by a person, they could trigger the body's potential, stimulating awakening.

During the awakening process, the body would absorb Chi from within and around it like a black hole to nourish the cells and sustain the functioning of abilities.

Most of this Chi came from the spirit plants, but if the Chi content of the consumed spirit plants was insufficient, it would squeeze the trace Chi from the food consumed by the person.

This would cause hunger, necessitating the need to replenish energy through food to continue the awakening process.

If an adequate amount of food wasn't ingested, it could result in the awakening ability not reaching its normal level or even awakening failure.

Therefore, survivors of the apocalypse concluded that different spirit plants had optimal stages for awakening ability, such as zombie grass, which required three or more leaves to ensure normal human awakening.

So, it was essential to fill up beforehand!

"Okay!" Grace immediately dove onto the table, devouring the food eagerly.

Then, she looked at Elijah expectantly.

Elijah didn't dawdle any longer, handing her the zombie grass. Grace took it excitedly, without hesitation, and popped it into her mouth, swallowing it down.

Grace chewed on the zombie grass vigorously, a bitter taste spreading in her mouth, followed by a chilling sensation, akin to drinking bitter melon juice mixed with mint.

Yet Grace didn't even furrow her brow; she swallowed all the zombie grass without hesitation. Instantly, her body seemed to ignite like a fireball.

The flames were scorching but not uncomfortable, quickly turning into a warm stream that began to circulate within her, giving her a tingling sensation.

At the same time, her body signaled hunger.

Prepared in advance, Grace immediately buried herself in eating until two-thirds of the food on the table vanished.

Now feeling a surge of energy within her, Grace felt she could utilize this energy for something.

She extended her fingers, prompting the energy within her to flow.

A spark of electricity immediately flashed across her fingertips, striking the tabletop with a crackling sound.

"Electricity?" Katherine exclaimed in astonishment. "Is your ability to control electricity?"

"It seems so," Grace replied, closing her eyes to feel it carefully. "

I can generate some electricity, but the intensity is limited and quite draining on my body's energy!

Relatively speaking, it's easier to control existing electricity!"

"Wow, that's impressive! In ancient legends, your ability would be akin to a thunder deity or something!" Katherine exclaimed excitedly.

"First-tier abilities have limited effects. The most important thing is to raise the body's limit, allowing you to quickly increase your physical fitness through body tempering techniques!" Elijah nodded with a smile.

Controlling electricity was indeed fantastic. Although it might not seem strong now and didn't have much effect on zombies, it could be quite useful against humans or in daily life.

"Yeah, yeah!" Grace nodded in agreement. "Next, I'll go find Charlotte, continue to refine my body tempering techniques!"

"I'll join you after finishing my meal!" Katherine, who had also recently awakened, didn't want to fall behind and immediately sat down to eat.

After the three finished their meal, they headed to the place where Charlotte and the others were practicing body tempering.

At that moment, Charlotte, Hannah, Sophia, Olivia, and Jasmine were exercising, while Bella was monitoring in the control room.

When the three arrived together, some of the women had neutral expressions, some looked surprised, and some wore mischievous smiles.

All eyes focused on Katherine, making her feel a bit embarrassed, but Grace was unfazed. She happily said to Charlotte, "Charlotte, I've awakened too! I'm here to practice with you all!"

"Oh? What ability did you awaken?" Charlotte asked in surprise.

"Electricity!" Grace said, extending her palm, with her index finger and thumb apart.

Suddenly, a spark of light appeared between her two fingers, emitting a crackling sound.

With a flick of her hand, the electric arc shot onto a nearby tree, blackening it and sending up a wisp of smoke.

"Not bad! For the next few days, you'll follow me to strengthen your body tempering training and try to raise your physical fitness as soon as possible!" Charlotte nodded in approval.

"Okay!" Grace happily agreed.

"And you, Katherine, don't slack off!" Charlotte warned.

"O-okay!" Katherine shrank back nervously.

As the three were conversing, Jasmine, who was practicing body tempering nearby, was completely stunned. "Her ability... just awakened?

Am I hearing it right? Do they know a way to awaken abilities?"

Her eyes then shifted to Elijah. Grace's sudden transformation was most likely related to him.

This morning, except for the three of them, everyone had gathered for breakfast.

Jasmine faintly heard some whispers, guessing that maybe the three of them had stayed up late and hadn't woken up in time.

As an experienced person, Jasmine quickly understood what they might have been up to.

"Could it be... awakening abilities by sleeping with him? Or helping to awaken abilities?" Jasmine pondered to herself.

As a woman approaching her forties, she was quite indifferent to such matters. If sleeping could awaken abilities, she wouldn't hesitate.

Jasmine prided herself on her looks, exuding charm and allure as a mature woman.

But what troubled her was that Elijah had never seemed to look at her differently.

At least, there was no sign of desire when he looked at her.

Until they arrived on the island and he saw the various, uniquely beautiful women, did Jasmine realize!

As a woman herself, she couldn't help but be moved.

Elijah spent every day with these women, surrounded by them.

His standards had risen, which Jasmine could understand.

But now, Jasmine was in a dilemma.

Leaving aside the awakening ability, she hadn't even received Elijah's acknowledgment, let alone tasted his blood!

No, she had to find a way! Jasmine silently made up her mind.

She refused to believe that with her looks, she couldn't capture him.

After experiencing the luxurious and comfortable environment and lifestyle compared to the post-apocalyptic days, Jasmine didn't want to go back to living in fear and anxiety.
