Survival in the game world starts with Resident Evil 2

Chapter 637 Millicent VS the Four Sisters

"Whoohoo-"

A blazing flame rose up, blocking the entrance to this room and the outside passage.

Li You stood at the gate with his sword in hand, while the rest of his companions had retreated to the end of the outer passage, leaving enough space for Millicent and her four sisters.

After the fire field was activated, Li You also stepped back and said to Millicent: "The knife I gave you can exert the greatest power in this field. I know you don't want to rely on the power of others, but just accept this level of help."

Millicent nodded, "I see. Thank you."

In fact, Li You did not expect at first that Millicent was going to fight her four sisters alone, but she insisted on doing so. In this case, Li You must respect her decision while also providing as much help as possible.

In the game, Millicent fought alongside the protagonist, the Faded One, but was still severely injured after the battle.

After that, in order to avoid fulfilling Gewei's wishes and blooming into a flower of corruption, she pulled out the golden needle in her body and chose to welcome death - this was her decision to implement her own will, and it was also the most crucial point that Li You valued about her.

"I still don't understand, Master, what is the relationship between Millicent and Marlenya?" Behind Li You, Kara asked this question through the mental link.

Edge was also very curious: "The auras of the five of them... except that Millicent has your power attached to her, they are almost exactly the same. If I didn't know beforehand, I would think they were five clones, not five independent people."

Li You had not previously told his companions in detail about Millicent, but everyone could see that she definitely had a deep connection with Marlenia.

In fact, Millicent and the four sisters who are confronting her are all related to Marlennia by blood, and they are not biological children or sisters, but are more like doppelgangers in essence.

In the Shattering War, Malenia fought the Shattering Star General Latan to a draw. In order to fulfill Michaela's long-cherished wish and to get Latan to Michaela's side, Malenia broke her own rules and took the initiative to bloom into a corrupt flower, causing great suffering to the people of Galide.

It was at that time that the will and dignity that Marlene had abandoned were stripped from her body. This was the preparation made by the corrupt law to make her a goddess, and Marlene's own resistance caused these separated parts to gain flesh and blood and turn into the Millicent sisters.

This is the truth that Li You learned from Torina, which is not much different from his previous guess. That is why Millicent and the others all have similar appearances and symptoms to Marlenya, and even have fragments of her memories.

Unfortunately, after the first war, Malenia fell into a coma, and the separated children were picked up by corrupt relatives wandering on the battlefield, and raised to adulthood with a purpose.

It wasn't just Millicent and the other four who were separated at that time. The scarlet flower in the elevator room was their sister who had come here in the past.

To be fair, Li You didn't have a very good impression of Marlennia. After all, whether or not she was bewitched and controlled by Michaela, she was the person directly responsible for Galid's transformation into a Jedi.

However, Millicent was another matter. Although even Torina didn't know which part of Marlenia that was abandoned she came from, in Li You's opinion, she should represent Marlenia's will and dignity.

Facing his companions' questions, Li You thought for a moment and did not elaborate: "Wait until this battle is over and let Millicent herself tell you."

As he said this, he snapped his fingers again, and a red light flashed on Millicent's body, and the blessing of fire had fallen.

Millicent certainly noticed it, but she just glanced sideways, said nothing, and looked at her sisters again.

"...I remember you, too. You were also raised by Gwei." She looked at the four sisters and whispered, "But you were blinded by him and forgot your true origins and mission. You really shouldn't have done that."

The four sisters stood separately, each holding a weapon. They looked similar to Millicent, dressed similarly, and all had signs of corruption.

The eldest sister Mary and the third sister Amy are both blind, the second sister Jasmine and the youngest sister Pollyanna are blind in their left and right eyes respectively. In general, the four sisters can only have one pair of eyes.

Compared with Millicent who lost her right hand, I don’t know which one is better...

But more importantly, the four sisters were not moved by Millicent's words. They were determined and had a clear goal, which was to come to Millicent and make her bloom into a flower.

Millicent understood what the sisters meant and knew that it was useless to say more, so she raised the knife in her hand and said, "Come on. But no matter what, I will never become something other than myself and bloom into a flower as others wish."

The five sisters, who were also clones, understood the essence of the problem. Their differences could only be resolved through fighting. The eldest sister, Mary, was the most decisive. She raised the sickle in her hand and swung it in the air. The golden halo flew and slashed towards Millicent!
Her move seemed like a signal, and the other three sisters followed suit. The youngest sister Pollyanna released the corrupt prayer silk again, while the second sister Jasmine and the third sister Amy carried spears and double swords, rushing towards Millicent from the left and right!
The four sisters had been acting together almost since they were young, and their cooperation was seamless. Even though they had no mental connection, they moved as if they were one, and their combined attack left no gaps, so there was no way Millicent could dodge without getting hurt.

However, Millicent reacted quickly, lowered her body and stepped forward, avoiding the swirling halo while swinging her sword upwards. A surge of power erupted from her not-so-strong body, and with one blow, she cut off the flow of Jasmine's energy and magic power, and instantly deflected her spear!

A hole suddenly appeared in the encirclement. Millicent rushed forward and knocked Jasmine back. She then turned around and swung her sword, making the pursuing insect silk miss its target. She also swung her sword and knocked away the double swords of the third sister Amy.

The combined attack of the four sisters was thus broken, but they remained calm. After one wave of attacks was resolved, they immediately supported each other, changed positions, and launched a second wave of attacks.

This time, the eldest sister Mary pressed forward with her sickle, while Pollyanna interfered with her dagger, blocking Millicent's movement. With Jasmine and Amy looking for a gap to enter, the offensive was more dangerous than before.

Millicent did not dare to underestimate her and tried her best. As she swung the scimitar in her hand, flames rose up. That was the help Li You gave her.

The flames of the spiral sword had a significant suppression effect on the power of the Scarlet Corruption. At the same time, after being strengthened, the flame blessing could also increase Millicent's power. In the flame field that enveloped the entire venue, she didn't need to worry about consumption at all, which really freed her from worries.

But even so, with four people on one, Millicent was still suppressed for a while. She kept moving around, looking for opportunities, and the five of them fought from the elevator room to this corridor, and then turned back, and the melee continued.

Everyone here looked a little worried. Aiji even asked directly, "Four on one is still too difficult... Why didn't she let us help? Li You, why are you just watching?"

Could your next sentence be, have you really betrayed me?

Li You almost said this, and after a pause, he replied: "You can see that Millicent wants to face her own fate, so she doesn't want us to interfere."

"Don't worry, we'll win."

Everyone: "?"

Including Yuzu, they were all confused, because if nothing else, Millicent was clearly being suppressed at the moment.

Will it win?
But when V turned around again, he saw that Torina was not worried either. After a slight pause, she seemed to be thinking about something.

Li You was indeed not worried, and he really thought that Millicent would win, and he was not just trying to plant a flag or play a trick.

The reason is simple. This world's Millicent is fundamentally different from her original self. After coming into contact with Torina, she unlocked almost all of her dusty memory fragments. These fragmented memories remain in her mind in a special way. As long as Millicent chooses to accept them, those memories can become her strength. Just like now.

Under the combined suppression of the four sisters, Millicent was gradually unable to hold on and could no longer maintain her uninjured state. She had several wounds on her body and face.

This was all fine, but with a self-sacrificing surprise attack by Jasmine and Amy, and the assistance of Pollyanna with the silk prayer, Millicent was finally forced into a corner with no way out, while the eldest sister Mary had already jumped up, swung her sickle and chopped down heavily!

Seeing that Millicent was about to be seriously injured, her eyes suddenly changed, becoming hazy and deep. The magic power in her body was rapidly depleting, almost reaching the bottom, but at the same time, the flame field immediately supplied her with magic power, allowing her to regain the ability to continue fighting.

At this moment, her whole person gave people a different feeling.

The four sisters were all startled when they saw this, and Millicent immediately swung her knife in the opposite direction. The blade vibrated rapidly at an incredible angle and amplitude, and actually instantly bounced away the spears and double knives that Jasmine and Amy were holding on her weapons.

Jasmine and Amy: "!?"

Millicent then gathered her strength slightly, slashed diagonally with her sword, and swung a flaming sword straight at Mary in mid-air!
Mary: “!!”

The power of the flaming sword was obvious at a glance. She absolutely did not want to take it head-on, so she could only retract the sickle and protect it in front of her to block the attack as much as possible, but she was still knocked away!
At the same time, Millicent did not stop. While Jasmine and Amy were forced to retreat, she turned around and rushed towards Pollyanna on the periphery!
Pollyanna was also startled, and immediately tried to use small steps to create distance, but she didn't expect that as soon as she took a step, Millicent seemed to have sensed it, and she turned sideways and kicked Pollyanna away, who had just dodged.

Pollyanna: "Ugh...!"

The encirclement that the four sisters had originally planned to achieve was broken, and Millicent was not even injured, but Mary and Pollyanna were definitely not safe and sound.

Looking at Millicent, whose eyes were still hazy, the four sisters were extremely alert. They sensed something different from the person in front of them.

Li You, who was watching from the sidelines, was very relaxed because he already knew what was going on.

Millicent, who has unlocked the memory fragments in her mind, can almost be seen as a young version of Malenia herself, and can use the same level of combat skills.

So Li You was not worried at all.

The youth version of Valkyrie is out, how can this guy lose! ?
Absolutely impossible!
Even though the four sisters are also the incarnations of Marlenia, their talents are not as good as Millicent. Just as Gwei, who raised the sisters, said, Millicent is "the best bud", she was like this originally, let alone Millicent who has unlocked the dusty memories?
The eldest sister Mary saw the clue and finally spoke: "...You unlocked those broken memories?"

Millicent's eyes returned to normal and she nodded, "That's right."

Although Mary is blind, she seems to be able to see everything clearly. She said, "Even so, the burden of unlocking the memory is great... It's not your power, and you can't maintain it forever!"

She said no more, and the four sisters gathered around her again, understanding each other's thoughts.

However, Millicent sighed softly: "It's all wrong."

Faced with the four people's encirclement again, she did not return to the previous state. Instead, she flashed and swung her sword like the wind, easily breaking their joint attack, and took the opportunity to counterattack, easily forcing the four sisters to retreat.

Four people: "......!? How is this possible?"

"So I say, you are completely wrong." Millicent stood with a knife in hand, and lightly pursued the enemy. At the same time, she explained to the four people: "The only burden of unlocking the memory is mental, because it will have a shock to our personality."

"These memories are not foreign. They belong to me...to us. I don't need to control them, nor do I need to maintain them. I just need to accept them."

As she spoke, she continued to dissolve the attacks of the four sisters, forcing them to retreat again and again with her own strength.

The second sister Jasmine was very surprised: "How could you... master such a skill?"

"I told you, these skills are ours. We just need to recall them." Millicent's face was calm and her tone was steady. You could hardly tell that she was in the middle of a fierce battle.

"All you need to do is recall the training and practice I went through in the past in order to be able to control my own destiny; all you need to do is recall the sins I committed when I broke the precepts. Then, mastering these skills will be a natural thing."

The four sisters could not fully understand what she was saying, they just felt the pressure was getting bigger and bigger. The fighting skills displayed by Millicent at this time even frightened Li You who was standing by, as he felt that she was not in the same dimension as them.

So the four sisters realized that if they still wanted to win, they had to fight to the death.

Then the four of them began to gather their magic power, intending to use their strongest fighting power to capture Millicent.

How could Millicent not sense their thoughts? She sighed softly and did not pursue them. Instead, she watched the four men complete their preparations.

"boom--!!"

Then, the four sisters attacked at the same time, each using their strongest attack, pressing down on Millicent! In an instant, a wave of magic power with a corrupt aura swept in all directions.

At this moment, Millicent's eyes suddenly widened!
She suddenly jumped up, picked up the scimitar, condensed all her energy and magic power into it, and then... swung it out at a very fast speed!

The blade lights she swung were almost connected, and even with Li You's eyesight, it was difficult to see her movements clearly. As Millicent swung her blade like a dance, the air blades turned into a storm, covering all four sisters!
Marlenya's signature sword technique, Water Bird Dance!
"Swiss, swish -"

The swords flashed, the air blades flew, and the four sisters concentrated all their magic power to attack, but they were mercilessly deflected by Millicent's Water Bird Dance. Even though Millicent had shown mercy, the four were still scratched all over by the aftermath of the Water Bird Dance.

"boom!"

The four sisters flew out and fell to the ground. Although they had not yet surrendered mentally, their bodies had lost the strength to fight again and they could not even get up.

Millicent, who had only used the basic stage of Water Bird Dance, landed lightly, put away her knife, and sighed softly.

"That's it."

The battle was over, and even Li You was amazed by the superb skills displayed by Millicent.

This is the swordsmanship inherited from the Flowing Water Swordsman who once sealed away corruption!
