"We are heading to Fairpon Tips," Silas informed Ivy with a serious expression. "We suspect that it still has some animals left since it is located in an isolated area. To avoid attracting attention, we are planning to go in teams."
Ivy immediately nodded. She was wondering why Silas's other team members weren't present.
Fairpon Tips was 50 km away from their current location. Ivy quickly calculated the time. If they take the car, they will reach their destination in 50 minutes.
'If only.. I had my power from the previous life... I could have protected them throughout the journey. Making it easier for them.' Ivy thought.
"Let's go." Silas said.
Due to Silas's family background, he had a black Jeep Wrangler before the apocalypse. One of the best choices of cars for the apocalypse.
Chloe and Amelia had self-awareness, so neither of them dared to sit in the passenger seat.
However, Henry was different. The moment Ivy opened the passenger door, Henry rushed toward the passenger seat and showed Ivy his set of white teeth.
"Sorry, Ivy, you can't sit here."
Ivy felt a strange kind of irritation rising in her heart.
"What you don't expect me to let you sit here when you once tried to...."
"Enough." Silas's threatening voice made everyone's heart shudder with fear.
The smile on Henry's face instantly vanished.
Even Ivy didn't dare to move.
"Give the seat to Ivy. Otherwise, from now on, Amelia won't be in the team." Silas's threat worked magically because Henry's face turned pale, and he immediately got down from the passenger seat.
Amelia, on the other hand, rolled her eyes and muttered, "Serves him right!"
Ivy resisted the urge to look at Silas and got in the passenger seat. Though she refused to admit it... she was indeed greedy.
She couldn't bear to let anyone sit in the passenger seat when Silas was driving.
Once everyone was settled, they all soon set off for the Fairpon Tips.
Henry was sulking as he looked at Ivy, who was looking out of the window, and thought in his mind,
'Just what is she scheming this time? Is she following us so that she can report to the Ravecroft family about our harvest today? Or maybe she is planning to tag along, hide behind, and then ask for her portion? I think it is the latter! Ah! Why can't Captain learn his lesson?'
Amelia Carter, on the other hand, wanted to knock sense into Henry's mind.
'This idiot... why can't he understand? It's not like Captain hasn't learned his lesson. It is just that... he can't let go of her.'
Her eyes unconsiously turned toward Ivy. Ivy was a unique kind of beauty. She had read in one of the articles that artificial pigments like pink do not exist in human hair. And still Ivy has it. It was truly a miracle of nature.
'Captain loves Ivy to the point that he is ready to go against everyone, even his family. Henry, like an idiot, keeps on going against Ivy. In front of Silas, Ivy is the law!'
Chloe, on the other hand, was focused on Ivy's side profile and thought,
'Why does Ivy seem more strong? Should I challenge her to a duel? Ah... but if the captain knew... he would definitely beat me up for bullying her!'
Each of them had their thoughts, and before anyone could realise, they reached the Fairpon Tips.
What surprised the group was the zombies they encountered on the way.
"Huh? Is it just me, or did we encounter fewer zombies this time?" Henry asked. He was the type of person who could hardly suppress his curiosity.
"Part of the reason is because of how isolated Fairpon Tips is," Ivy stated as she looked around.
'And the other part maybe is because of my powers.' She wondered in her heart.
Safe Zone superpower.
One that could protect not only her but also the people around her. As the level increases, it becomes passive for the ability user.
Ivy had possessed this rare superpower in her last life. As a result, when she wanted to die in the end, she couldn't die at all, because of this rare superpower.
The question was... she could only protect others when her level increased. However, according to her calculations, she was still at level 0... so how come the zombies still avoided the jeep?
"Anyways, let's start to hunt. Team B must have already started to hunt!" Chloe said in a confident voice.
Her competitive side became more apparent because of her bold declaration.
"Yes!" Henry followed after.
Soon, the team started to climb the mountain.
