"We''re mainly concerned about people like Isaacing to the ind..." Fiona supplemented when she saw Elijah silent.


    "If you''re worried about that, then I can assure you, there will never be men randomly joining this ind in the future. Even if they do join, it will only be with your consent!"


    "In that case, let''s cooperate happily!" Fiona breathed a sigh of relief, her smile lightening up a bit as she reached out her hand to Elijah.


    Elijah didn''t shake her hand; instead, his expression grew more serious.


    "You''ve finished stating your demands. Now it''s my turn!" Fiona''s smile froze.


    "Do we have cups?" Elijah asked.


    "Yes!" Emily responded promptly. She released Gabriel and hurried to the counter, returning with a stack of paper cups, which she ced on the table.


    Elijah arranged the paper cups one by one, cing six in front of the table. Then he picked up the mineral water prepared for the tourists nearby and unscrewed it.


    "Gulp, gulp," he poured the water into the six cups. Then he took out a knife and cut his finger, letting a drop of blood fall into each cup.


    As everyone watched him, initially puzzled, they quickly guessed what he intended to do.


    "My request is simple. All you have to do is drink this cup of water!"


    "Is this a blood oath?" Gabriel behind them asked with interest.


    But Fiona felt it wasn''t that simple. "What if we don''t drink it?"


    "Then I''m very sorry, but those who don''t drink cannot stay on the ind!" Fiona pondered.


    "Do all the people on the ind need to drink it? Including your people?"


    "Yes!" Elijah confirmed.


    "Alright! We''ll drink it!" Fiona decisively lifted the cup and drank it all. Hannah and the other two women also took the cups without hesitation.


    Seeing the two cups left on the table, everyone turned to Gabriel and Emily.


    "Do we need to drink it too?"


    "I don''t think we need to. After all, we didn''t n to keep you on the ind anyway!" Fiona said indifferently.


    "Huh? Sister, you''re so heartless! Brother-inw..."


    "What your sister said is right!"


    Elijah followed up.


    "The service area outside the ind also needs someone to guard it, and I think you''re suitable for the job! You can''t let a few unarmed women guard the door, can you?"


    Gabriel looked at the weapons in Daisy''s hands and then remembered the kitchen knives in the hands of the four women earlier.


    Then he looked at himself,pletely unarmed! Truly defenseless! He drank down with tears in his eyes.


    Emily, on the other hand, was very happy. This indirectly meant that this group of people had epted her.


    "Although the process may have been unpleasant, the result is good. Wee to join my big family!" Elijah reached out his hand and shook Fiona''s.


    "Since we''re family now, can we talk about what secrets you''re hiding? Or... your supernatural abilities?"Fiona elegantly withdrew her hand, a faint smile on her face.


    What a sharp woman! Elijah was amazed!


    "Mutual respect! You''ve also hidden abilities, haven''t you?" Elijah picked up another bottle of water and handed it to Daisy.


    "Here, for you, your favorite chilled beverage!"


    "Wow, how amazing!" Daisy eximed in surprise. The water, which had been at room temperature, was already frosted and even beginning to freeze in the short time it was handed to her.


    "How is this possible?" Hannah, who had been keeping a straight face all along, showed a rare hint of astonishment.


    "Ability replication?" Fiona was also surprised, and at the same time, she seemed to realize something.


    When Elijah and Daisy deactivated their invisibility, she had a question.


    How could it be so coincidental that two people awakened the same ability at the same time?


    At that moment, she spected that perhaps an invisibility wielder could make theirpanion invisible too.


    Now, seeing Elijah''s ability to replicate others'' powers, everything made sense!


    "So, the blood from earlier was some sort of medium? A contract? That allows you to replicate our abilities?"


    "Very clever!"


    Seeing the subtleties! So much content deduced from just a detail. Elijah''s admiration for Fiona''s sharpness grew.


    "I guess, even without our help, you could handle Isaac and the others, right?"


    "Ah! So, the water at the entrance..."


    Daisy realized it too! They intentionally flooded the entrance with so much water! Daisy suddenly understood.


    If they could instantly freeze the water, it would definitely catch the enemies off guard!


    If the enemy could be frozen, wouldn''t the enemy be a living target?


    "Freezing such arge area of water is still quite taxing for Hannah. And there''s no guarantee it would be effective against Isaac and his group. It''s all desperate measures. So, we''re very grateful for your help. We came out of it unscathed!"


    Fiona didn''t feel it was something to boast about. When ites down to it, it''s a matter of fighting to the death.


    That''s something nobody wants to see. They were prepared to fight to the death. But who wouldn''t want to live!


    At this point, Elijah received some images from the mutant female zombie again.


    Because of the distance, he couldn''t receive real-time images anymore, and the frequency of images being sent back had decreased significantly.


    Shortly after, Elijah "saw" Henry being bitten and Isaac fleeing in a sorry state.


    "Too bad, Isaac got away!"


    It would have been nice to keep one, but letting a powered individual escape is still a threat.


    Upon hearing this, Fiona couldn''t help but sarcastically think about letting Isaac go: wasn''t it their own doing?


    Elijah didn''t exin. With the facts discussed, his tense nerves rxed.


    Making a pact with six people and experimenting with Hannah''s "freezing" ability had been a significant drain on his mental and physical strength, especially since they hadn''t slept all night.


    Rxing now, exhaustion surged.


    "My head is pounding. Are there any vacant rooms here? We haven''t slept all night, and we need to rest now! If there''s anything urgent, we''ll discuss it after we''ve rested!"


    The seed of consciousness had been nted, and the mental suggestion had taken effect.


    Elijah was no longer worried that this group of people would harm him. Next, he and Daisy needed a good rest; there were still many things to be done.


    Seeing Elijah, who suddenly looked fatigued, Fiona, though a bit puzzled, didn''t say anything more. Instead, she had Katherine take the two to a nearby guest room.


    On the way, Elijah could clearly see some bloodstains and traces of dragged bodies that hadn''t been cleaned up.


    It seemed there were quite a few zombies here initially!


    "Did you clear out all the zombies here?"


    Katherine nodded.


    "Fiona used obstacles and Hannah''s ability to trap the zombies, and then we killed them, gradually clearing them out."


    Elijah could probably guess their methods.


    No wonder the weapons in the women''s hands were stained with blood.


    Women who could face zombies directly were no less than men.


    Elijah couldn''t help but admire these four women once again.


    Especially Fiona, smart, sharp, and courageous! And they''re all so beautiful!


    Truly a stroke of luck!
