Chapter 37 The Ninth Night
Chapter 37 · The Ninth Night
Jiang Yu had a dream.
In the dream, he did not succeed in getting the first pot of gold in the beehive. Naturally, he could not create Xia to assist him. And he was not able to successfully persuade Zheng Zha to change the exchange. Instead, because of his self-defeating rhetoric, everyone lacked trust in him.
He did not take the shortcut, but became a clown. Even if he exhausted the only reward points in his hand, he could not complete the snowball of power accumulation. When the second world was opened, a fate more tragic than Li Xiaoyi fell on his body.
When the alien regarded him as a target of hunting, no one offered a helping hand to him. Even Li Xiaoyi, at least Zheng Zha tried to rescue him when he was taken away by the alien in the original world.
It was really sad.
When he woke up in the alien's nest. The flesh that was drained of nutrients sent out a signal of exhaustion, and the life breath of the chestbreaker kept expanding in his body, the whole world in front of him seemed to be calling out to him.
——You are just a mortal, relying on luck to get here.
——How dare you... think you are superior to everyone else! ?
………………………………
Jiang Yu opened his eyes.
It is the ninth day, afternoon. There are still several hours before the final decision at dusk. The reincarnations of the Zhongzhou team are resting or doing daily preparations. And no matter whether to fight to the end or give up in advance, as long as the discussion reaches a consensus, everyone will fight to the end for the same goal.
The situation has not changed much. This city is compared with the day before and the day before. There is not much change except that there are fewer people.
Jiang Yu gently pressed his chest-his heart was beating strongly, not hurriedly, not slowly.
"Ayu, didn't you sleep well?" Xia's voice came from the side-he turned his head and saw the pink-haired beauty sitting on the chair beside the bed, casting a worried and concerned look at him. "It's still a while before the agreed time, you can rest for a while."
Her hand was holding Jiang Yu's hand. There is gentle heat under the slightly cool skin - the temperature in America has indeed dropped on a large scale at the end of September. But a little weak true energy flows over, soothing his nerves and the body wrapped in nerves.
"I'm fine." Jiang Yu said. He thought his voice would be hoarse and his chest would be dull, but it wasn't. "It's just that I was a little nervous when the last day came, so I had a boring dream."
It was indeed a boring dream. Because the past is not worth assuming, the future is only in your own hands. Trembling and frightened, like a frightened bird, it is useless for me. On the contrary, if I start to question my past, my decision and ability, everything I have grasped with my hands, and attribute them all to "luck". Then, sooner or later, everything I have will be lost in this self-pity and self-abasement.
Only the weak will be like that - Jiang Yu doesn't know if he can become a strong man, but he doesn't want to be a weak man.
So he got up from the bed. Change the protective gear needed for battle.
"Is everything still normal?" He asked Xia while getting dressed.
"There are not many changes in Raccoon City. But the security at the checkpoint has become stricter. About two hours ago, the police officers of Raccoon City evacuated from the police station and went to the checkpoint to cooperate with the Umbrella staff to carry out the evacuation of citizens at the beginning of the second part - one of the heroines, Jill Valentine, was among them. This may be a sign that the first part is about to end and the second part will begin."
"What about Ashford Villa and Raccoon City Junior High School?"
"There are no significant changes at present. But I did observe the appearance of Umbrella's shuttle fleet. And arrived at the research center half an hour ago - but there was no movement after they entered. At the same time, the sentries around Umbrella are still operating and remain highly vigilant. It is very likely that they have completed the transformation experiment of the heroine Alice in the original plot."
Jiang Yu nodded.
According to the time calculation, the Umbrella Research Institute should have almost completed its work at this time. And when the day comes tomorrow, the research center will be cleared, leaving only the male and female protagonists of the second part. The tracker Matt and the fusion body Alice will wake up in the afternoon, close to dusk. Matt will be awakened in the late night of Raccoon City in the later part of the plot.
In other words, before the research team evacuates, it is the last and best time for the reincarnations to launch an action to seize the T fluid.
Everything is normal.
The plans A and B of the reincarnations do not seem to have any impact on the world because of different choices.
——However, even if the bodies are cleared, the fact that the team was annihilated will not disappear. As long as we choose to confront the team head-on instead of passively escaping from their pursuit. This choice will cause a chain reaction in the world... They will know that there is still a powerful force in this city. They will feel the crisis. Then... they will take corresponding actions.
What is the action? I don't know.
Jiang Yu's intelligence is not enough to complete this level of deduction and calculation.
But what he can be sure of is that there will be a big change in Umbrella. And what he is betting on is that this huge movement will be revealed before the tenth day.
He doesn't know whether Alexia really exists - but he knows that there must be internal forces in Umbrella supporting Dr. Ashford. And since there are, they will be confused, nervous, and even anxious because of the sudden disappearance of the troops.
Yes, he used the laws of the Lord God... or the laws of mathematics. The path he chose is destined to have a challenge of fate, and this challenge cannot happen without reason. So as long as the monsters along the way are cleared before the action, the Umbrella forces in Raccoon City will be lured away from the tunnel area. At that time, what he and others encounter will most likely be forces from the Ashford faction.
It's a bit risky. When he finally found out that he really didn't encounter a monster. Before the enemy, he actually had some regrets in his heart.
But regrets are regrets, and actions are actions. And now...
-I am waiting for changes, changes from within Umbrella. If not, then use other, more risky ways to promote this action. And if there is, then... we may have a reason to act.
Jiang Yu rubbed the dimensional ring on his finger. The still sufficient ammunition reserves gave him full confidence. And in his perception... well, actually on the display screen of Kashejin's intranet terminal, all the members of the team were already physically and mentally active at this moment.
It's not bad to prepare more in advance.
………………………………
Dusk soon arrived in the city. When the last pre-war meeting was held, the reincarnationists changed to a new base. The place of conversation was moved from the hidden small building to the vast and gorgeous lounge inside the church. And the reincarnationists even spent a little time to set up a small position here.
The reincarnationists have a weakness - the weakness is that they must return to the small building as the landing point on time. This weakness must be disguised, so a new, attention-grabbing bunker position is needed. If it is exposed at a critical moment, it will be hit first.
The church in Raccoon City is such a good place. The church bell tower can be quickly reached from the internal lounge. It can also have a good view of most of the city. While Xia was on guard there, the reincarnations of the Zhongzhou team started the last meeting - or, in other words, they threw the detailed structural diagram of the Raccoon City Research Center on the table, waiting for someone to come up with a valuable and unique suggestion.
That 'someone' doesn't exist yet. So the reincarnations just looked at each other. Around the whole table, you look at me, and then I look at you.
Zhang Jie coughed lightly.
"Umbrella... seems to have strengthened the security of the research center." He tried very hard to emphasize his suggestion with a low sense of presence. "Is it because we killed too many zombies that Umbrella's originally dispersed forces were concentrated?"
There was a silence.
Jiang Yu and Zheng Zha looked at each other, and the former spoke first.
"But we can fight." Jiang Yu said, which was his foreshadowing for the "change" not to appear in the end. "The battle a few days ago has proved that Umbrella's troops are not as strong as we expected. As long as we remain in the dark and take them by surprise, the possibility of achieving our goals and escaping unscathed is very high."
"But we don't have to..."
"We have to take this risk." Zheng Zha took over Jiang Yu's words. "None of us can tell what the next reincarnation world will be. So before that, I want to enhance the combat effectiveness of everyone in the team as much as possible in a more familiar battlefield. Umbrella's research center is not strong for us. What's more, we don't have to leave from the original path."
He pointed to a point on the map on the desktop, which was a warehouse at the edge of the underground area of the research center. Then a map of the underground railway layout engraved on thin paper was superimposed on it. If these two intelligence drawings provided by the Lord God are completely correct, then the edge of the warehouse is only five meters away from an abandoned underground railway tunnel.
Five meters, in terms of modern construction technology, is a thick enough distance. But...
"There is still more than two-thirds of the bottle of alien biological acid." Zhan Lan murmured. She was the first to react and realized Zheng Zha's intention.
"We can have a way out." Zheng Zha nodded, with a natural sense of pride in his tone: "I also thought of it on a whim, but it was also thanks to Jiang Yu who exchanged the key topographical drawings of Raccoon City. Now, I think we have actually reached a consensus on whether we can take down the Raccoon City Research Center. And we also have a backup method to escape smoothly after getting the T original liquid."
He looked at Zhang Jie sincerely, and his voice was full of sincerity.
"Brother Zhang Jie, I owe you the share. I want to pay it back. Give me a chance, okay."
He said, and his words surprised Zhang Jie. And just when Zhang Jie was preparing to reply, a huge roar suddenly broke out in the distance!
The dusk and light night outside the window were instantly lit up.
At this time, the communication channel came from Xia's overall communication.
"Everyone! A battle has taken place in the direction of Ashford Villa and Raccoon City Middle School!"
The final night of the Resident Evil has begun.
