As soon as he finished speaking, Elijah imdiately felt a hot gaze fixed on him.
He turned to see Jasmine, her eyes sparkling with a hint of flirtation, staring at his Red Fruit.
Elijah then rembered that Jasmine was likely still a first-tier ability user.
"How about I give this to you?" Elijah offered, handing over his Red Fruit.
Jasmine eagerly took it and ate it without hesitation. Just like Olivia, Jasmine successfully advanced to the second tier.
This further confird for Elijah the effectiveness of Red Fruit No. 4.
Jasmine, excited, couldn't wait to showcase her new abilities.
She casually picked up a knife and fork from the table, and in front of everyone's curious eyes, demonstrated her temperature control power, visibly heating the utensils to a red glow.
"Wow, how high is that temperature?" Olivia exclaid in surprise.
"It matches my abilities quite well!" Grace added, unable to hide her excitent.
Her second-tier lightning abilities could produce similar high temperatures when applied to tal, though it took a bit longer to heat up.
However, it was highly effective for killing zombies!
"Maintaining such high temperatures for a long ti is quite draining for !" Jasmine explained with a beaming smile.
Everyone was pleased to see them advance to the second tier and speculated whether large-scale production of Red Fruit No. 4 could lead to further advancents for them as well.
Taking advantage of the distraction, Jasmine approached Elijah and whispered, "Tonight, sa place, you can do whatever you want..."
With that, she wiggled her curvaceous figure and left.
Sa place...
Elijah recalled their previous reckless escapades in the small woods, feeling a fiery sensation rising within him.
"Hmph! Hmph! Are you expecting a lot of dates tonight?" Fiona teased, sitting down next to Elijah with a half-smile.
"I could et you first," Elijah replied, his hand sliding around her waist. Fiona's silky evening dress made her appear both elegant and sensual.
"I'm not interested..." Fiona said dismissively, but as Elijah's hand slid up her slit, she let out a soft moan.
"I need to talk to you about sothing serious..." Fiona said, grabbing his misbehaving hand.
"You talk, I play," Elijah said with a grin, suggesting he would continue his playful behavior.
Fiona gave him a disapproving look.
"The ten Seeds of Consciousness you left have been used up. Six were used, including one for Ivy when she advanced to the second tier at Quentin's place. After that, I didn't waste any more Seeds of Consciousness even though more people in their team awakened."
"Well, controlling the four top leaders at Quentin's place is sufficient since it's nearby, and issues can be resolved more easily!" Elijah nodded approvingly.
"After news of our awakening agents spread, many people ca to trade in the past few days. I selected five of them based on their distribution. These five are leaders from smaller settlents."
"Did none of them want to join us?" Elijah asked curiously.
"So did, but I didn't agree. I can't guarantee the character of these individuals! Those without organizations were sent to Quentin, and those with organizations are temporarily kept as friendly allies to observe their future actions!"
Fiona didn't ntion that those greedy for Azure Isle's environnt or the awakening agent formula were dealt with, either sent away or eliminated.
The show of strength from Azure Isle had made potential troublemakers comply with Fiona's alliance strategy.
Elijah could guess this even without Fiona saying it. In this world, power is everything!
That's why he continued to pursue power and work hard to help the won around him beco stronger. Experience new stories on mvl
In the early days of the apocalypse, things were indeed chaotic.
But after a couple of months, as everyone adapted to the new world, beca familiar with the ways of the apocalypse, and established so unwritten rules, things would improve.
In his past life, Elijah was in a similar phase, moving between various settlents, trading supplies, and exchanging information.
As the day drew to a close, everyone was tired from the engaging conversation and gradually returned to their rooms. However, each person stole a glance at Elijah before leaving.
Elijah noticed, feeling a mix of warmth and concern.
Hmm… where to go tonight?
As Elijah hesitated privately, Bella grabbed his arm and said, "Elijah, recently soone exchanged for an unfamiliar spirit plant. Co take a look!"
"Unfamiliar?" Elijah followed Bella into the spirit plant cultivation room.
Once the door was closed, Bella turned around, wrapped her arms around his neck, and gave him a passionate kiss.
Elijah was montarily taken aback but quickly began to reciprocate with equal fervor.
As ti passed, their clothes started to scatter on the floor. With no place to lie down, they continued to stand, competing with each other.
At tis, Bella would take a break, lifting her legs off the ground to be held by Elijah. Despite the effort, Elijah didn't mind, carrying her around.
After a long while, as their emotions cald, Elijah looked at Bella's flushed, delicate face and affectionately said, "This reminds of when Daisy and I ca to Azure Isle to scout, and when we returned, you were just as enthusiastic…"
"Hmph, back then it was just and Daisy. Things are different now!" Bella replied with a playful snort.
"But your place in my heart has never changed!" Elijah gazed at her with deep affection.
Bella couldn't help but laugh at his words, then gave him a playful eye-roll. "Only Daisy would fall for your sweet talk!"
With that, Bella jumped down from Elijah and began picking up the scattered clothes. "I'm done here. I need to train now, so go find your other lovers."
Elijah understood Bella's good intentions—she didn't want him to monopolize her ti on his first day back—but he couldn't shake the feeling of being a re consolation.
"I'll stay with you today," Elijah said, wrapping his arms around Bella.
"I don't want to deal with a bunch of jealous won tomorrow! If you want to stay, let's talk about it in a few days…" Bella said.
Elijah decided not to press the issue, recalling his previous arrangent with Jasmine.
As they both tidied up, Bella also took the opportunity to update Elijah on the situation with the spirit plants in the cultivation room.
