"Sweet! This bow is amazing!" Keith exclaid, rapidly firing arrows through the gaps in Mrs. Winter's thorny vines to prevent the mutated snakes from slithering into the truck. Behind Kisha's vehicle, Ethan and his team fought fiercely, fending off the relentless onslaught of snakes lunging at them from the tall grass.
The trucks swayed dangerously from side to side under the impact, nearly tipping over. If the drivers lost focus for even a mont, they risked being thrown off the road, tumbling into the dirt—where the snakes would surely surround them in an instant.
Fortunately, Kisha had given everyone a heads-up beforehand, allowing them to stay on high alert. With quick reflexes and precise coordination, they managed to outmaneuver the lunging creatures, keeping their convoy moving forward despite the chaos.
Seeing the sheer size of the mutated snakes made everyone's skin crawl. The smallest among them was as long as a bus, with a head large enough to swallow a tall, muscular adult male whole.
They were fortunate to be inside the first-class, military-grade armored trucks capable of withstanding blasts, but even these vehicles had their limits. There was only so much damage they could endure before succumbing to the relentless assault.
With no other choice, they unleashed their awakened abilities. Keith's support proved to be a lifesaver—his bow and arrows had a target-lock function, ensuring each shot found its mark with deadly precision.

[Divine Long Bow]
[Description: Forged from the sacred wood of the High Elves' revered Divine tree, this legendary longbow is bestowed only upon the most elite warriors—the Sacred Rangers.

Both the bow and its wielder have disappeared without a trace, leaving behind unanswered questions and whispers of a forgotten legend.

Upon seeing the longbow's description, even Kisha felt reassured about letting Keith fight at the back without worrying too much. She had specifically given him this weapon because it suited him best.
As a support-type awakened ability user specializing in illusion manipulation, Keith had always strived to beco an all-rounder. He put imnse pressure on himself, determined not to be a burden to his sister and to protect his family.
Despite his limitations in close combat, Keith had trained relentlessly in long-range combat, knowing that his physical strength alone wouldn't be enough to hold his ground in a lee fight.
Although he learned valuable close-combat techniques from the Winters' and Ethan, his abilities were much better suited for ranged attacks and strategic support.
The best way to maximize his effectiveness was to keep him at a distance, where he could fight safely while providing crucial support to the team.
It was a fortunate coincidence that Kisha had drawn the 'Divine Long Bow' during a Gachapon Draw. Since both she and Duke were already satisfied with their weapons—her preference being multiple daggers, which complented her telekinesis—she had stored the longbow in her inventory, thinking it might co in handy one day.
That day ca when she noticed Keith's growing interest in long-range weaponry. Deciding to give him the bow, she was surprised to discover that he had a natural talent for archery. Though still a bit clumsy, with ti and training, he had the potential to beco a formidable sharpshooter.
After so ti, Kisha decided to check Keith's status window, along with her grandparents'. She realized that she hadn't thoroughly reviewed their statuses in quite a while, having only given them a quick glance before. This ti, she intended to examine them more carefully and with due diligence.

Seeing her grandparents' 'Talents' and 'Gifts', Kisha's interest was piqued. Since this was her first ti thoroughly checking this part of their status window after their awakening, she hadn't fully understood the extent of their abilities until now.
It dawned on her that she had unknowingly wasted system points on purchasing redies for Sparrow and the rest of the group 6's status abnormalities.
Her grandmother's 'Soothing Hand skill', for instance, was capable of removing most status abnormalities—so long as they weren't stronger than her own ability. This ant that many of the ailnts Kisha had spent points on could have been cured naturally.
Only those with particularly strong effects, beyond her grandmother's current level, remained untreatable for now. However, as her grandmother continued to level up, the effectiveness of her skill would only improve.
And to think that their stats had improved so drastically—from single digits to double digits—while she was away was proof of their dedication to becoming stronger. However, their next crucial step was to level up to Level 1.
Although their current strength made them comparable to elite humans—capable of easily taking down an average person—humans were not their only enemies. The real threat lay in the evolving zombies, which continued to grow stronger over ti.
At their current level, Keith and her grandparents wouldn't stand a chance against the increasingly powerful undead. They needed to keep pushing forward if they wanted to survive what was coming.
