Chapter 251: I’ve successfully advanced
By the time Elijah and his group returned to Azure Isle, it was already noon the next day!
After leaving Neoville City University the previous day, it had gotten late, and traveling at night was extremely dangerous. So, the group had found a safe place to stay overnight and continued their journey the following morning.
Compared to the urgency of their departure, the return trip was much more relaxed. When they finally arrived on the island, Fiona, who had heard the news, rushed back immediately.
Fiona was leading a team to clear the road to Neoville City International Port.
Of course, she didn't need to handle it personally.
In fact, the road clearing was being managed by Quentin and a few ordinary people from other smaller settlements, combined with one or two awakened individuals forming exploration teams.
Meanwhile, the team from Azure Isle was a mobile squad primarily handling nearby issues, dealing with troublesome mutated zombies.
This was all thanks to Vincent resolving the communication issues with the radios, allowing different teams to communicate effectively nearby.
Whenever a problem arose, they could immediately call for nearby support.
This greatly increased the survival chances of those going out on exploration missions.
In the two days Elijah's team was out, several subordinate settlements of Azure Isle had equipped themselves with radios, making them even more grateful to Azure Isle!
They felt that having such a powerful ally was advantageous and showed even greater enthusiasm for the tasks issued by Azure Isle.
Before leaving, Fiona had specifically instructed Gabriel to notify her immediately if Elijah's group returned, using the radio system distributed across the settlements along the way.
Although not as convenient as phones, the messages were indeed transmitted very quickly.

Thanks to the road clearing, Fiona managed to get back to the island within just a few minutes after receiving the news.
"How did it go? Any discoveries?" Fiona immediately approached Elijah and his group, who were resting.
Daisy quickly began to describe everything that had happened over the past two days with vivid detail.
Fiona listened with rapt attention, her eyes shining brightly, especially when she heard about the powerful performance of the female zombie's third-tier ice abilities.
"If Hannah had come back, she would have been thrilled to hear how strong the third-tier ice abilities are!"
Hannah had replaced Fiona and was leading Lily and others in dealing with mutated zombies.
Soon, Daisy mentioned the Snow Lotus Spirit Fruit.
Upon learning that Elijah might advance to the fourth tier after consuming it, Fiona became even more impatient.
This was an achievement that no one had reached in his previous life for an entire year!
And now, he had achieved it in just over two months!
"How did it go? Did you succeed?" The women watched Elijah anxiously, with Charlotte being the calmest. Her mental presence had been extended, and she could clearly feel that Elijah had changed at the moment he advanced. However, she couldn't pinpoint how exactly he had changed, only that he seemed more imposing and dangerous.
"Yes! I've successfully advanced!" Elijah said with a faint smile.
"Really?"
"That's great!"
"How many contract slots do you have now?"
Fiona was the first to ask her most concerned question.
"I'll check!"
Elijah closed his eyes and carefully sensed the rhythm of his body and abilities.
At that moment, Elijah felt his body was more powerful than ever, as if it possessed infinite potential!
In his mind, a glowing web appeared. Each line on this web connected to a person. Elijah understood that these were the individuals he had implanted with the Seed of Consciousness.
Some were far away, with dim colors, mostly located in the western suburbs of Neoville City, and were YLK group members. Others were close, glowing like stars, within Azure Isle and its vicinity.
Simultaneously, he could "see" the appearance of these glowing individuals, imitate their abilities, and forcibly control them, even to the point of causing their deaths.
His suggestion abilities had been further enhanced to become true control abilities.
And the number of people he could contract and control had increased from 50 to 100!
Before the apocalypse, there weren't even 100 second-tier ability users in Neoville City!
But now, with just a bit of time, Elijah could achieve this.
Elijah shared this news with Fiona.
Fiona's eyebrows visibly curved up, and her face was filled with undisguised joy.
An additional 50 slots meant 50 more controllable, loyal, at least second-tier ability users. This was crucial for the development of Azure Isle!
While Fiona was thrilled about the increased contract slots, Elijah was more concerned with another new ability.
At the fourth tier, he could solidify the imitation of one more ability.
