Chapter 28: Brother Jie, you don’t miss your sister-in-law either.
Over the next few days, they cleared out the Hunter's lair in the sewers, earning a total of 3,000 reward points. They then wandered the sewers of Raccoon City, clearing out scattered T-Virus creatures. However, the only T-Virus creatures in the sewers seemed to be the Hunter and the Mutant Crocodile. The others seemed to have been devoured by them, leaving none to be found.
When the time came to return, everyone was teleported back to the main god's space for repair.
Zheng Zha, who knew that it was basically no big deal, rushed forward and hugged Luo Li, who looked worried. Seeing Luo Li's confused face, they realized that if it was the time of returning to the horror movie in the rest world, then only a moment would pass in the main god space.
"This function is good. I asked your sister-in-law. The normal mission to go to the horror movie takes one day, but now it only takes a moment. They don't have to wait here anxiously." Zhang Jie added that when entering the horror movie that takes place every ten days, time flows here in the main god space.
"Didn't it get clean? Or did I guess wrong?" Wu Jie gently rubbed his fingers. Although they had been repaired by the Lord God, after a day of intense fighting, he still felt some pain in his fingers. He said, "I thought there would be a plot reward for cleaning up the sewers in Raccoon City."
"What are you thinking? Do you think the side stories are cheap?" Zhang Jie used Zheng Zha's dragon fire to light a cigarette and said, "I've toiled through four rounds and haven't found a single side story. The Raccoon City sewers are just so-so. That unlimited ammo Vulcan cannon is basically invincible. How can that stingy Lord God give you any side stories?"
Zhan Lan, who was gradually recovering from the backlash of the gene lock, looked at Zhang Jie calmly without saying anything.
"Actually, there's another possibility," Wu Jie said, "that is, we didn't clean it up properly."
"That shouldn't be the case, right? We've walked around the Raccoon City sewers, and apart from the hunters and the mutant crocodiles, we haven't seen any other monsters."
"But here's the problem." Wu Jie frowned and said, "In Resident Evil 0, James Marcus, one of the three founders of Umbrella, was killed by his students William Bacon and Wesker in an abandoned research institute. His body was thrown into the sewer. Before his body was thrown in, a leech carrying the T virus crawled into his body. After ten years of hard work, the leech ate Marcus's body, mistook itself for Marcus, and began to retaliate against Umbrella."
"This is also part of the plot of Resident Evil 0. I'm worried about this overlapping, stitched-together version of the game and the movie. Marcus' body might still be in the sewer. The game takes place in July 1998, while the movie takes place in 2002. But if this world is truly stitched together, who knows if there will be any plot related to Resident Evil 0. If we can find Marcus' body—no, if Marcus really exists—then given the Lord's nature of wanting us to keep fighting, we must be facing the Leech Queen."
"The worldview of the game is different from that of the movie. The T virus in the movie was created by the doctor in Resident Evil 2 to cure his daughter's congenital genetic disease. But the worldview of the game is much more grand. The origin of T is a combination of the Progenitor virus extracted from the Stairway to the Sun and the leech gene, which was researched by Marcus."
"I suspect the monsters we encountered in the tunnels were likely T-creatures adapted from the game's plot. Since there are so many hunters and mutated giant crocodiles underground in Raccoon City now, perhaps the world above ground has already become like Raccoon City in the game."
"This time we only entered the Raccoon City sewers and didn't go up at all, so we didn't trigger the side quest. If we had gone above ground in Raccoon City, we might have directly triggered the plot of Biohazard 2, and it would have been a game-movie fusion."
"If the game were really stitched together, the world would be incredibly lively."
The game world view of Resident Evil is very complicated, and the game world view is different from the movie. The worst thing is that they are about to enter a thing that is a patchwork of the game version and the movie version.
"If only Leon, Ada Wong, Rebecca, Chris, Alice, all the protagonists from previous video game movies could get together, they could team up and overthrow Umbrella."
"No matter what, we made a killing! Three thousand reward points, that's a lot for just one sewer! We're really drinking bowl after bowl of porridge this time."
Some consumables do have some losses, such as grenades, powerful antidotes, enchanted arrows, energy drinks, etc., but these plus the reward points for going to the Resident Evil will not exceed one thousand points.
Double the profit, that's enough to be called a huge profit.
"How about we take a day off and then go into Resident Evil again?"
"Still going?"
Zhang Jie was showing resistance from head to toe, not because he was afraid of danger, but mainly because Zheng Zha was already on the verge of unlocking the gene lock. If he was given a little more pressure, the gene lock would be opened.
Three gene locks in one battle, wouldn’t this be the end of him?
"Well, of course, it's still voluntary registration. I haven't received the original liquid from Brother Jie yet."
"Actually," Zhang Jie suppressed his anguished expression and explained, "I think your fighting power is almost enough. I'll just fire a pistol and be a supporting force."
"A support must also have combat effectiveness. If a support doesn't have the power to kill all the enemies, how can he protect his teammates?" Wu Jie said, "Brother Jie, I will definitely do what I promised. At worst, I can force my way into the Umbrella base and I will definitely get the T virus solution back for you."
"I'm going too!" Zheng Zha, who had been hugging Luo Li tightly, let go of her and said, "Brother Jie, the importance of the T virus fluid is self-evident. Even for my sister-in-law's sake, I have to bring it back to you."
"Rest for a day, then take me with you." Zhan Lan walked out from under the Lord God's healing beam and said, "Brother Jie, you don't want your sister-in-law to disappear because you died in a horror movie, do you?"
"Okay, okay, you guys all have special skills."
Now that things have come to this, what else can Zhang Jie say?
He should just follow these three young men. With him around, at least the three of them will be safe.
This was just because he had to fulfill his duty as a guide, and it was definitely not because he was afraid that these three people would really break into the Umbrella base and be shot to pieces by heavy firepower.
