“Ah…”
Su Mu screamed in terror, his heart pounding uncontrollably in his chest.
As he slowly opened his eyes, trembling all over, he found himself in a dim, enclosed train car.
Through the faint light, he saw dozens of hollow iron pipes of varying thickness hanging beside him, and several chains hanging not far away.
The floor ahead was open, revealing a large, intimidating black hole.
Where was this?
Hadn't he hit the jackpot while delivering takeout in the early hours?
Just as Su Mu was wondering, a cold, mechanical voice suddenly rang in his mind:
【Ding】
【Multiverse Evolution System has been bound】
System?
Su Mu's eyes instantly widened, the terror and confusion in his heart replaced by an unbelievable ecstasy.
This was the golden finger that only protagonists in novels possessed!
With the System, reaching the pinnacle of life was not a dream!
However, he just didn't know what functions this System had?
If it was like a tycoon system, just casually giving him trillions of funds would be great!
The Multiverse Evolution System seemed to have divined Su Mu's thoughts, injecting its functions and usage methods into his mind as memories.
Su Mu digested the information in his mind and was completely stunned.
The core function of the Multiverse Evolution System, as its name suggested, was primarily to help countless worlds evolve.
The System could allow him to travel through countless worlds.
He only needed to intervene, guide, and transform those worlds to help them complete their “evolution.”
For example: from the civilization leap of a small tribe to the ecological reshaping of a large planet, as long as it could bring about a qualitative leap in the world.
He would receive corresponding “Evolution Point” rewards.
These Evolution Points could be used to purchase any item in the System Mall, such as rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, elixirs, supernatural abilities, cultivation techniques, or even cultivation… What made his heart race even more was that.
He received a beginner's welfare: a System storage space with a length, width, and height of ten meters each.
He could freely store and retrieve items with a thought.
Su Mu swallowed in shock. According to the System's usage memories in his mind, he communicated mentally: “System, check the System Mall.”
In an instant, a virtual screen visible only to him immediately floated before his eyes.
System Mall.
Food Category:
One hundred jin of rice — 1 Evolution Point
Ten jin of fine salt — 1 Evolution Point
...World Evolution Assistance Category:
Primary Spiritual Energy Resurgence — 100 million Evolution Points
Intermediate Spiritual Energy Resurgence — 10 billion Evolution Points
Advanced Spiritual Energy Resurgence — 1 trillion Evolution Points
...Su Mu casually glanced at a few items and then exited the Mall.
After all, looking was pointless.
He didn't have a single Evolution Point.
The most urgent task was to figure out the current situation.
Just as Su Mu was about to get up and explore, the System's cold, mechanical voice rang in his ears again.
【Ding】
【Newbie Mission issued: 1. Obtain the t-virus, 2. Kill ten zombies】
【Mission complete: Reward 100 Evolution Points, unlock permission to return to Blue Star】
【Mission failed: No penalty】
“t-virus?”
These three words awakened Su Mu's long-sealed movie memories.
He scanned the dim train car again.
Only then did he realize that the place he was in seemed to be the underground train that Alice and others took to the Hive in “Resident Evil”!
Su Mu now knew that he was no longer on Blue Star.
The thought of the terrifying plot in the movie made him break out in a cold sweat.
He knew all too well what kind of dangers lurked in the Hive!
Zombies, Lickers, mutated dogs.
Of the people who entered the Hive, no one survived except Alice, who had the protagonist's halo, and Matt, the big boss villain from the second movie.
Mission failed, “no penalty”?
This did not bring Su Mu any joy, but rather deep fear.
No penalty was the cruelest penalty.
Failure meant being unable to return to Blue Star, forever trapped in this zombie-infested world.
The outcome was nothing more than two possibilities: either being torn apart by zombies, or being captured by the Umbrella Corporation to be experimented on, injected with viruses like a lab rat, and suffering a fate worse than death.
Su Mu took a deep breath, forcing himself to suppress the fear in his heart.
Calm down, he must calm down.
Thinking carefully, these two missions were not as difficult as he imagined.
He suddenly remembered crucial information: the t-virus, along with the antiviral serum, seemed to have been placed on this train by Spence, the culprit who broke and released the t-virus.
Thinking of this, Su Mu's eyes lit up, and he quickly looked at the back door of the train.
If the plot hadn't deviated, then the unconscious Spence and the electronic password box containing the t-virus and antiviral serum would be behind the door.
Just as he was about to get up and slowly move over, a slight sound came from outside.
Su Mu's heart instantly tightened. Without thinking, he closed his eyes and fell to the ground, feigning unconsciousness.
He knew very well.
At this time, besides the special task force sent by the Umbrella Corporation to investigate the situation, and Alice, who had lost her memory, and Matt, who was impersonating a police officer, there would be no one else outside.
The zombies and Lickers had been locked up by the Red Queen.
Before the Red Queen was forcibly shut down, the Hive was still safe.
With a “clank,” the train door was pulled open by the technical expert Kaplan, and bright lights instantly flooded the dim car.
As soon as Kaplan walked in, he saw Su Mu lying on the car floor.
He immediately turned and shouted to those behind him: “There's a person in the car!”
The medic Danilova ran into the car at the sound, knelt beside Su Mu, reached out to pry open his right eye, and shone a flashlight into his pupil.
Su Mu shook his head appropriately and struggled a bit, then slowly opened his eyes, feigning a dazed expression of just waking up.
Danilova held up two fingers and asked: “How many fingers is this?”
Su Mu's English was barely enough for daily conversation.
He blinked slowly and responded in a low voice: “Two… two.”
“Very good.” Danilova withdrew her hand and asked again, “What's your name?”
Su Mu knew how to answer for the most correct choice. He shook his head, showing a confused expression: “I… I don't know.”
Hearing this answer, Danilova stood up and looked at her teammates around her with a confident expression: “He's fine, just like Alice, he's temporarily lost his memory.”
Upon hearing this, everyone relaxed their guard.
As for why there was an Asian-faced person in the Hive, they didn't want to know, nor did they want to delve into it. Perhaps Su Mu was a logistics staff member, or a technical staff member transferred from Tokyo headquarters.
As for Su Mu not wearing a uniform, they could also understand; after all, he was on the train, clearly about to go out, so wearing casual clothes was normal.
In their perception, anyone who could appear inside the base was internal company personnel.
Therefore, Su Mu, as an “Umbrella Corporation internal personnel,” did not receive the treatment of being handcuffed like Matt.
