Hendrick followed after them and asked “Going to kill mutated zombies?”

Cecelia responded calmly, “Just looking around.”
Hendrick asked, “Want to go together?”
She turned him down immediately. “No.”

She narrowed her eyes and glanced over Jayson and the others, then said to Hendrick, “You guys go ahead and do your thing.”
Hendrick immediately understood what she meant. He said resignedly, “It’s only a temporary partnership.”
“Oh.”
Cecelia looked completely uninterested. She called out to Amber, “Turn here. Let’s go the other way.”
Amber answered and obediently changed direction.
Cecelia ignored Hendrick and quickly left with Amber.
Hendrick watched the direction she left in and could not help frowning slightly.
Timothy walked over to him. “What’s wrong?”
Hendrick shook his head. After glancing at Jayson and the others with a frown, he said impatiently, “You show them around. I’ll go check out the other areas.”
After saying that, he turned and walked away as well, heading in the exact opposite direction from Cecelia.
Timothy watched his back as he left and felt a little conflicted.
Lately, Hendrick seemed different.
And those changes had a lot to do with Cecelia.
The swarm of mutated rats in Merriton had not completely disappeared yet.
From time to time, a mutated rat would suddenly dart out while they were walking, startling
Amber several times.

She was still not familiar with her ability, and each use drained her energy quickly.

After struggling for quite a while, she finally managed to kill a mutated rat and dug the small crystal out of its brain.
During that time, Cecelia also casually killed a level 2 mutated zombie nearby and gave the crystal to Amber to help her level up.
Amber felt extremely touched. “Cecelia, I… I can kill zombies on my own. Maybe you should keep this crystal for yourself.”
Cecelia replied, “What would I keep it for? I’m giving it to you so you can reach level 3 as soon as possible. Once you can hunt level 2 mutated zombies yourself, I won’t be giving you crystals anymore. Understand?”
“I understand, Cecelia.”
Amber accepted the crystal. Her eyes turned red as she sat down where she was and began absorbing the crystal’s energy.
Cecelia kept watch around them.
Going from level one to level two did not take much effort.
Amber finished leveling up quickly.
When she opened her eyes again, the redness on her face had not faded yet.
“Cecelia, I… I succeeded!”
“Good. Try your ability.”
Cecelia gestured toward the iron window behind Amber.
The window itself was ordinary, and the metal bars were already rusted.
But that did not matter.
Amber immediately released her ability.
With a loud clang, iron window was instantly ripped off and slammed heavily onto the ground.
The entire frame was badly deformed.
It looked like a crumpled lump of metal.
Cecelia clapped her hands and nodded in satisfaction. “Not bad. Pretty good. But now you need

to learn how to use that ability to kill zombies.”
Amber’s cheeks flushed with excitement as she nodded repeatedly.

In one quick motion, she pulled a metal bar from the window and launched it toward a zombie not far away, one that had already had half its head chewed off by rats.
Whoosh!
The metal bar shot forward like a blade.
It pierced straight into the zombie’s neck.
The zombie immediately stiffened. Its neck twisted with a few cracking sounds, then with a heavy thud, its head dropped to the ground.
Immediately after, the zombie’s body collapsed to the floor as well.
Completely dead.
“Cecelia, it works perfectly!”
Amber looked at Cecelia happily and could not help straightening her posture. “Now I can protect Ivy and Jerome, too.”
“Not bad. You still needs more practice.”
Cecelia was fairly satisfied with Amber’s ability. She reminded her, “Personally, I suggest you practice using small metal projectiles. With metal control, the larger the object you manipulate, the more energy it consumes. You should only try controlling something as big as a car once you reach around level 4 or level 5.”
Amber nodded repeatedly. Using her ability, she pulled the metal bar she had just used back toward herself. She then split one end of it into three separate pieces, each shaped into a sharp arrow tip.
“Cecelia, is this better?”
As she spoke, she launched the three metal arrows at another normal zombie.
One of them struck the zombie directly in the head. It was an instant kill.
