What happened to my ability...

Excitedly waving his hand, Elijah accidentally hit the dining table, causing a loud

"thud."

The table, unable to bear the weight, emitted a "creak," and a crack appeared in the middle, threatening to split completely.

"Oops!"

Bella exclaimed in shock. Fortunately, Elijah quickly realized and held up the table with both hands, preventing the dishes and utensils from falling.

"Sorry, my abilities were just enhanced, and I haven't adjusted yet..."

"Wow! Amazing, Elijah, I want that too!" Daisy was thrilled, kissing Elijah on the cheek and bouncing around him.

After the initial shock, Bella's thoughts turned to more practical matters, her eyes filled with a soft charm as if about to overflow.

Finally, with the cooperation of both girls, the tableware was quickly cleaned up.

The table was beyond repair, so Elijah threw it aside, intending to get a new one from another floor.

Meanwhile, he carefully felt the changes in his abilities.

Physically, his strength had almost doubled compared to before, which was noticeable.

Speed, endurance, and recovery had all improved, but the exact extent needed further testing.

However, he could clearly feel that his body was much lighter, almost reaching the level before his rebirth.

That was the peak physical fitness of a first-stage superpower, achieved after half a year of natural growth and another half year of continuous training.

Now, after just a few days of exercise and advancement in superpowers, he was already on par with his previous state.

More importantly, he still had great potential to explore.

In addition, Elijah noticed a revolutionary change in the seed of consciousness.

Previously, he could only transmit information unilaterally through the seed of consciousness to control zombies and suggest to humans.

But now, his brain was constantly receiving information from Bella, Daisy, Abigail, and the little yellow dog.

These complex messages didn't affect his thinking. Like seeing things with his eyes, his brain filtered and retained important information to feed back to him.

For example, he could sense Bella's distance, breathing rate, and heartbeat intensity. With Daisy, he could sense the flow of energy within her body...

Wait!

Elijah's spirit shook. Just now, when he felt the flow of energy within Daisy's body, the energy of the seed of consciousness in his body subconsciously imitated it.

In an instant, Elijah felt a strange affinity for the shadows. Could it be...

Daisy and Bella, who had just finished tidying up the tableware, were about to ask Elijah some questions. They had many questions, especially Daisy!

But then they saw Elijah closing the curtains, and the room immediately darkened.

At the same time, Elijah's body seemed to sway in the shadow of the curtains like a drop of water falling into a river, slowly disappearing!

"Huh? What happened to my ability..."

Daisy was extremely surprised, instinctively displaying her ability as well.

In Bella's view, Daisy also disappeared like a fish entering the water.

"Is this invisibility?" Bella covered her mouth, amazed at how magical it was, despite hearing about it from Daisy before.

Her eyes showed envy and desire!

Meanwhile, Elijah, integrated with the shadows, was extremely excited.

The advanced ability had indeed given him a big surprise! He could actually mimic abilities!

With this ability, as long as there were enough individuals with seeds of consciousness planted by him, wouldn't he be an all-powerful individual?

"Elijah, what's going on with your ability?"

Daisy, now also merged into the shadow, couldn't be seen from outside, but the two of them who were also in the shadow could see each other.

Elijah dispelled the ability, and his figure immediately reappeared in the room.

He explained to the two women, "My ability has advanced! My second-stage ability is the ability to mimic others' abilities, but of course, this mimicry isn't without limitations!"

He calmed down a bit. Through the recent experimentation, he had also discovered some drawbacks.

"Firstly, I can only mimic the abilities of those with whom I've made a conscious contract, like Daisy!"

Conscious contract was the name he had previously given to Daisy for the ability, which allowed him to control unconscious zombies but was ineffective against conscious humans and animals.

Naturally, he also informed them that he used conscious contracts on them to prevent them from suddenly becoming zombies and attacking.

"Secondly, I can only use one ability at a time. If, Bella, you also awaken an ability, I can only choose to mimic either yours or Daisy's ability, not both simultaneously!"

"Finally, there's a distance limitation to this mimicry. If Daisy is too far away from me, I won't be able to mimic her ability. The specific distance is still unclear."

"That's still amazing! I wonder what my ability will be like after advancing!"

Daisy clapped happily, slightly fantasizing with anticipation.

"Is it because you ate that zombie grass just now?"

 Bella's focus was different, and she looked at Elijah with slight anticipation.

"Exactly! I found that zombie grass among a group of zombies. They were all surrounding it, as if they wanted to eat it!"

"Both Daisy's and my abilities were awakened because of the zombie virus. Since plants that can attract the attention of zombies also look strange, I wondered if they could benefit us as well."

"Now I know, these miraculous plants can enhance our abilities, and it's not impossible for ordinary people to awaken abilities too..."

With Elijah's confirmation, Bella's heart immediately pounded with excitement.

She even forgave Elijah for the two times he had caused her to escape back to her room early in the morning!

"What are we waiting for then? Elijah, let's go out and find some. Let's awaken Bella's ability first, so that all three of us are awakened!" Daisy was eager to try.

"No need to rush. We don't even know where to find them. I intentionally left some roots in the flowerpot. Let's see if they can grow first!"

"That's true!" Daisy dashed excitedly to the flowerpot.

"How can we make it grow faster? Do we need to water it?" Daisy stared at the small section of roots exposed.

"No need. It only needs the corpse core from the zombie's brain. But I don't have any now. We'll try planting it in the soil later when we find one!"

"So that's how corpse cores are used!" Daisy suddenly realized.

Bella also remembered the scene that had scared her before.

Obviously, when Elijah was pounding her husband's head, it wasn't just for vengeance, but to find the corpse core!

That was right after the zombie virus had just broken out...

Bella pursed her lips and didn't dwell on it further. As long as Elijah treated her well, she didn't care!

Elijah wasn't worried about what they might think.

Right now, he had more confidence in his abilities. After advancing to the second stage, not only did he gain new abilities, but his original abilities also became stronger.

For example, his ability to control zombies.

Initially, he felt like he was controlling marionettes, slow and prone to mistakes.

Now it was much smoother, more like controlling characters in a game.

Occasionally, he could even receive images seen by the zombies he controlled. Just like with Abigail...

Huh? What is Abigail looking at?
