Ben Stone had been caught in the acid rain. Although his wounds had been bandaged, they were now a bloody, mangled mess after what just happened.
"We just need to film some videos every day,"
"To prove we’re giving them food and water."
Nina Jacobs suggested.
At first, Vera Coleman worried that her daughter would be traumatized. After all, even she was terrified by Ben Stone’s ferocious appearance.
But they soon discovered that Nina Jacobs wasn’t so much filming videos as she was observing and documenting Ben Stone.
"He’s demanding water every ten minutes on average,"
"But Jenna Sullivan isn’t."
Nina Jacobs pointed at Ben Stone, who was again clamoring for a drink.
Ben Stone and his mother were locked in the basement of Daniel Hale’s house.
The two were confined to the same room, and Ben Stone was far more agitated.
"He’s just looking for a chance to escape."
"Who needs to drink water every ten minutes?"
Leo Hale said with absolute certainty.
Jenna Sullivan was awake now. Even Leo Hale had to admire how she acted as if nothing had happened, doing nothing but crying and apologizing nonstop.
"You’re right. A normal person would be fine even if they didn’t drink water for half a day."
After saying this, Nina Jacobs stopped recording on her phone.
People who had been exposed to the acid rain developed an intense thirst.
Their craving for water would only grow stronger. If they didn’t get any, they would become increasingly agitated and soon develop a high fever.
After the fever, they would die and eventually turn into zombies.
For most people contaminated by the acid rain, this transformation took five to seven days.
But as far as Nina Jacobs was concerned, Ben Stone might not need that long.
She was going to make him complete his transformation into a zombie ahead of schedule.
Denying Ben Stone water was the first step.
「Meanwhile, in a villa in Prosperity Gardens.」
Liam Grant opened his eyes and shook his head at Renee Strong and the others before him.
He hadn’t awakened a Superpower.
No matter how hard he tried to sense a superpower, it was useless.
Renee Strong sat down, disappointed.
’Just why? Where did things go wrong?’
’In our past life, Liam Grant was supposed to have awakened his Thunder Element Superpower today.’
"What are you laughing at?"
Renee Strong asked, baffled by Ivan Lawson, who was laughing out loud off to the side.
Ivan Lawson had only arrived early this morning.
He had looked incredibly happy ever since he walked in the door.
"Finished dealing with your family matters?"
Simon Abbott didn’t have a family, but he didn’t envy anyone.
’Ivan Lawson went to deal with his family, which most likely meant he went to kill someone.’
In their past life, they all knew that Ivan Lawson’s own family had kicked him out of their car, and it was Nina Jacobs who had saved him.
"Yeah. I finally got some sweet satisfaction."
Last night, he had personally pushed his own niece into the acid rain.
Watching his older brother’s family—the same people who kicked him out in his past life—howl in helpless rage filled him with an indescribable thrill.
’Soon enough, my niece will turn into a Little Zombie. That’s going to be so much fun.’
"Wouldn’t it be better to just kill them?"
Liam Grant disapproved of Ivan Lawson’s actions.
In his view, this would only lead to endless trouble later.
"You didn’t kill Nina Jacobs, either, did you?"
Ivan Lawson’s single sentence silenced everyone in the room.
"Then again, that’s not right. You’ve already killed her once."
"Ivan Lawson!"
Renee Strong quickly cut him off when she saw the ugly expression on Liam Grant’s face.
But it seemed Ivan Lawson wasn’t about to let it go:
"I’ve been meaning to say,

She wanted to stop her but was held back by Daniel Hale.
