Perhaps my smile angered my sister.
I was placed at the forefront to kill zombies.
In the past life, when my sister chose the lightning ability, she was confident.
She wasted her talent because the ability required upgrades.
Initially, the lightning power could only produce a weak electric spark, barely enough to delay a zombie for a second.
She thought she could conquer everything with her power.
But she ended up making a mess on her first zombie kill, causing chaos, and lost many of Nolan’s men, earning his grudge.
Numerous zombies started moving toward us, like beasts drawn by the scent.
My hand holding the knife trembled slightly.
In the previous life, I was heavily protected and hadn’t faced zombies head–on in a long time.
I focused intently on the nearest zombie, holding my breath.
I precisely activated my ability, and the weak electric shock gave the zombie a momentary pause, seizing that second.
I fiercely plunged the knife into the zombie’s brain!
Blood spurted out, and I quickly jerked the handle back, again and again.
I managed to deal with it before another zombie approached.
I quickly used the electric shock again, repeating the process on the next zombie.
Finally, my hand was so rigid it couldn’t lift anymore, my whole body covered in blood, my ability exhausted, lying numbly on the ground.
“You did well.”
Nolan’s clear voice rang out, smiling, “You, a woman, killed ten zombies alone.”

I opened my tired eyes, seeing my sister’s face twisted with jealousy.
She forced a smile, pretending to care, “Sister, you’re amazing, but with all that blood, you weren’t bitten, were you?”
A cold light flashed in my eyes.
Nolan’s smile paused, he glanced at my sister, then quickly smiled, “You’re right, we should thoroughly check to prevent internal strife.”
I lay on the ground, indifferent.
As long as Nolan knew I had value, he wouldn’t easily discard me.
But if he labeled me as “useless,” I’d have to fend for myself.
Thinking of this, I looked at my sister playfully.
“Aren’t you supposed to treat the wounded? How do you have time to chat here?”
My sister’s eyes flashed with anger, but with Nolan nearby, she obediently went to care for the injured.
As she walked away, my gaze grew colder.
In the previous life, after my sister awakened her ability, she immediately abandoned me.
So she didn’t know.
Although the lightning ability needed upgrading, it could truly become a great weapon against zombies later.
But the healing ability had a fatal flaw.
