Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

"Lily... Are you listening to me?"

"Huh? What's up?"

Lily snapped back to attention.

"Is this underwear fitting?"

Lily looked down.

Remembering Elijah's approving gesture, she felt a bit embarrassed.

"Just... this one!"

"Then I'll find you a matching top..."

As Elijah reminisced about the scenery he had just seen, he listened to the two chatting.

After a while, the two finally emerged dressed neatly.

Elijah looked openly this time and noticed Lily had changed out of her supermarket uniform, completely transforming her demeanor.

She now wore a large orange-and-pale-green checkered blouse on top, clearly attempting to conceal her figure, but it only accentuated her curves, making her figure more pronounced.

She paired it with slightly loose jeans, transitioning from professional to casual, appearing more fashionable and youthful, making her seem a bit younger.

If one didn't know, they might believe she was Daisy's sister.

At this moment, Lily nervously tugged at the hem of her shirt, feeling embarrassed facing Elijah.

Even though she was the one who was inadvertently seen, she couldn't help but feel shy.

Daisy pulled her along, smiling proudly at Elijah. "How does she look? Pretty, right? There are even prettier outfits, but not convenient for work..."

"Beautiful!"

Daisy also changed her outfit, still exuding her flamboyant personality, youthful, lively, fashionable, and stunning.

Elijah generously praised both of them. Daisy accepted the compliments nonchalantly, then finally huffed.

"Just now Lily agreed to join us. Elijah, it's your turn to give Lily a drop of blood!"

A look as if he was doing her a favor!

Actually, he could give it to someone else...

But he didn't dare say it out loud, afraid Lily would punch him. With his current defense, he definitely couldn't withstand it.

Forget it, let's do it the proper way!

Elijah extended his finger and squeezed out a drop of blood, holding it out to Lily.

During the process of clearing zombies earlier, Elijah had briefly explained his ability.

Lily understood it was to prevent herself from potentially turning into a zombie and harming others in the future.

At the same time, Elijah could mimic her ability.

In her mind flashed images of her surviving colleagues who had suddenly turned into zombies and were killed by other survivors.

She felt a hint of sadness but more of relief.

From now on, in her own territory, she wouldn't have to live in constant fear.

Without much hesitation, she gently took Elijah's finger, sucking the drop of blood into her mouth.

Immediately, Elijah felt a mental tether connecting them.

The flow of energy within Lily's body also transmitted to his mind.

The seed of consciousness automatically drove the energy within him to mimic hers.

Elijah felt an endless surge of power emanating from his limbs.

"Such powerful strength, I feel like there's nothing I can't handle now!"

Of course, this was just an illusion, a sense of unreality brought about by the sudden increase in strength.

He clenched his fist, his muscles tensing, and in an instant, his body seemed to grow a few inches taller.

Indeed, having a bigger chest was reasonable!

He looked at his swollen knuckles, a bit red, and shook his head.

"I'm fine, Lily's ability strengthens muscles and bones, making her very resilient."

But her defense was different from Abigail's.

Abigail had a comprehensive defense from all angles, taking care of every inch of skin.

While Lily's ability couldn't guarantee she wouldn't get bitten and infected, it was more like being bitten shallowly, similar to being bitten by a mosquito.

But it was still formidable; with a little caution and wearing protective clothing, dealing with a few zombies was a piece of cake.

Lily was amazed and happy to see Elijah demonstrate his ability.

"Lily, we're a family now. Let's go back to Azure Isle together later. It's so beautiful there!"

Daisy said happily.

"Yeah!"

Lily nodded solemnly.

"Alright, it's getting late. Let's go to the warehouse of the underground supermarket and grab some food!"

"Yay!"

As soon as food was mentioned, Daisy immediately perked up.

The three of them walked downstairs chatting and laughing.

During the walk, Daisy roughly explained some situations about Azure Isle to Lily.

When they reached the underground supermarket warehouse, it was pitch black inside.

There were no windows underground, and currently, there was no electricity either, so the three of them had to use their flashlights for illumination.

Apart from the darkness, the smell inside was also unpleasant.

A mixture of fishy odor, rotten stench, spoiled food, and stale air filled the place, making it strangely foul and uncomfortable.

"We've only recently cleared out the underground supermarket warehouse," Lily explained as she handed masks to the other two.

"Due to the power outage, everything in the freezer and refrigerated rooms has gone bad, and with no ventilation, the smell isn't great!"

"This big supermarket should have backup generators. Do you know where they are?" Elijah asked.

It was too dark inside, and without knowing the layout of the goods, it was inconvenient to find anything. Having electricity, even just for lighting, would be much more convenient.

"It seems like they're next to the cold storage!" Lily recalled vaguely.

"Take me there to have a look!"

"Sure!" Lily led the way, and soon the three of them arrived at a door.

A sign above it read "Freezer!"

Without stopping, Lily continued walking a short distance and stopped outside a distribution room.

"It's here, but I don't have the key!"

"No problem!" Elijah wasn't deterred. He had Daisy assist with the flashlight while he took out his tools and quickly picked the lock.

Entering the room, they found several large distribution cabinets, and finally, on one side of the room, they found the generators.

There were a total of four sets of generators, apparently capable of supplying power to both the warehouse and the supermarket simultaneously.

Elijah followed the circuits connected to the generators.

Fortunately, there were labels on the distribution boxes, so he didn't have to guess.

One set of generators was specifically for the warehouse refrigeration and freezer rooms. Another set was for the warehouse, while the remaining two sets were for the supermarket and the air conditioning ventilation system respectively.

Finding the generator for the warehouse, Elijah checked the diesel inside. It was full, so he started it up.

Once the generator voltage stabilized, he flipped the power switch, and the room instantly lit up.

"Now it's much more convenient!" Elijah nodded in satisfaction.

"I just wonder if there's any reserve diesel here. If not, we'll have to rotate the four generators!"

"I remember there should be some in the maintenance department on the first floor!" Lily raised her hand.

"Really? Then we don't need to worry! Let's go find something to eat now, I'm starving!"

"Great!"
