Survival in the game world starts with Resident Evil 2

Chapter 708: Did this experimental subject get the wrong script?
In the core laboratory of the research base.

Radames stood in front of the two deepest culture chambers, looking at the two experimental subjects floating in the chambers without saying a word.

At the workbench behind her, nearly ten researchers were busy making final adjustments to Project Eden.

These are all the remaining researchers under Radames. As for the subordinates doing miscellaneous work, there are even fewer than the researchers.

At this time, one of the remaining clerks was reporting to Radames about their current losses. However, even though the reporter was terrified and didn't dare to raise his head, Radames's mind was not on him at all.

She already knew everything, such as the fall of subject No. 2, and that Simmons was a fake and had escaped with Ada.

Logically, Radames should be furious at this time, but perhaps because there have been too many unexpected events recently, she is very calm at the moment and has no extra expression.

As for his subordinates' reports, Radames interrupted them halfway through and went straight to the conclusion: "How many 'samples' do we have left?"

The reporter was stunned for a moment, then said, "There are... five copies left."

Radames didn't care about the specific number at all: "Release them all, set up defenses, and stop those guys from going deeper. You guys should come with us."

The reporter shuddered, but knew that he could not disobey her order, so he could only lower his head: "...Understood, ma'am."

After the reporter left, Radames looked at the incubator in front of him again.

The only two remaining incubators contained two test subjects, one male and one female. The female test subject had a soft face and was sleeping with her eyes closed, while the male test subject next to her looked more like a teenager, but he was wearing a special mask that covered the lower half of his face, and his body was also full of wires.

At this moment, the experimental subject suddenly opened his eyes, and his gray pupils looked at Radames.

Radames did not show any surprise, but looked at him and asked, "What's the situation?"

The subject paused before answering. His voice came through the equipment on the mask: "That body was knocked down by them."

Radames's expression darkened. "...I know. How did you do it? If you were fully activated, would you be able to defeat them?"

The male experiment subject thought for a moment and said, "It's not easy, but if you remove the restrictions on my body, you should have a more than 50% chance of winning. Have you seen the battle record?"

Seeing Radames shaking his head, the experimental subject's eyes moved slightly and said, "Then let me briefly explain to you. They fought very fiercely with my body and consumed a lot of energy. I suggest that I go and chase them immediately, which should catch them off guard."

Radames seemed to think for a moment before nodding: "...Okay."

Her statement was an order, and the researchers in the rear immediately got busy, preparing to lift the restrictions on the experimental subjects.

As the prompt sound continued to echo, the nutrient solution in the culture chamber on the left was continuously discharged, and the hatch opened immediately. The experimental subject inside walked out steadily and stood in front of Radames.

He took off his mask, revealing a face that was almost identical to the huge half-body before, but more childish, and then took a deep breath of the air outside the cabin.

"Go, get rid of the invaders and usher in your era," said Radames.

The real Test Subject No. 2 paused, then lowered his head slightly: "I understand... Mother."

He took one last look at the half-bald middle-aged male researcher at the operating table, and then walked out of the laboratory.

After No. 2 left, Radames called the half-bald, most capable researcher again: "Arrange the treatment measures and all the activation preparations for No. 1, and then thaw the Alpha injection and prepare it for me."

The researcher had no doubts: "Understood."

……

At the same time, on the road leading to the core laboratory above the research base, Li You and his team were advancing rapidly.

Li You had already learned most of the details of the Radames Project from Ada. With this level of intelligence, there was no need to be restrained. Since he already knew that the key to the Radames Project was her experimental subjects, it was clear what he had to do.

The only thing that is unclear now is what abilities Radames's No. 1 and No. 2 test subjects have. But based on No. 3, those two are probably upgraded and enhanced versions of him, and they should have other unique abilities.

But no matter what it is, there is no situation that Li You and his team cannot handle.

So Li You didn't delay and prepared to rush straight to Radames's lair.

As for the specific location, through the central platform main control computer cracked by V, they found the upper map of the base. Although Radames's location was not listed here, it could help them determine the direction to go deeper.

Passing through the complex internal passages and rooms with different functions, V couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't this base too big? And it doesn't look like it was built recently."

Leon also agreed with her judgment, and Shirley even judged: "Judging from the condition of the facilities, this place has been in operation for at least several years."

Li You was actually also surprised. Radames' base in the game was not here, but an underwater research institute she secretly built to cultivate chaos. If everything developed strictly according to the original time, then it is estimated that the construction there has not started yet.

But she has such a large underground research facility here? It looks even bigger than the underwater research institute in the original game.

It was Ada who answered everyone's questions: "This is the family's asset... It was built a few years ago when Simmons was preparing to invest heavily in research on biochemical viruses. However, the conservatives within the family strongly opposed it because the project was extremely expensive and Simmons did not have a convincing enough virus in his hands."

"So this place was only half built and then abandoned and temporarily sealed... It should have been like this originally. Maybe Radames later had second thoughts and happened to control the family's power in the Far East, so he built this place without Simmons' knowledge and used it as his own secret base."

Li You suddenly realized.

Leon, on the other hand, was a little worried about the fact that Ada knew so much about the family's intelligence. After all, Simmons had been looking for her, and she couldn't even hide, so why did she investigate him?

Just as Leon was about to ask a little, he heard a reminder in his head: "Something is coming!"

Everyone immediately became alert and looked towards the long passage ahead.

The next moment, the door at the end of the passage was suddenly slammed open, and several humanoid monsters of mixed shapes rushed out!

Those guys were obviously human mutants, and each of them looked weird. Some were extremely fat, with their bloated bellies constantly flapping on the ground; some looked like human-shaped moths, and some had protruding white mutant parts similar to insect larvae on their bodies, and their insides were constantly bulging, as if they could explode at any time.

There are five such mutants in total, and according to Edge's perception, there are seven or eight guards infected with Praka hiding in the rear passage.

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that there would be such mutants here. However, Li You looked at these guys and felt that they looked very familiar.
Aren't these some of the elite enemies in the original Resident Evil 6? Although the appearance is different from the game, the overall style is the same.

That being the case...

"boom--!!"

A gunshot was heard, but it was not Li You who did the shooting, but Shirley who was standing beside him. She picked up the Echo that Li You had not yet taken back, and shot through the mutant that seemed to be parasitized by a giant beetle larva.

Then there was a loud "bang" and the mutant's body suddenly exploded. The power of the explosion was so amazing that it even made the two sturdy power mutants next to it lose their way for a while.

Ada glanced at Shirley in surprise, and Shirley just smiled: "That guy will explode when he sees it, right?"

"Haha, the little girl has indeed grown up." Ada smiled and then pulled out her gun.

“Bang bang bang——!!”

Although these mutants have strange shapes, their fighting power is not enough in front of the group. Even without Li You and his friends, Leon and his friends can easily deal with them.

The last mutant quickly fell under Leon's sword. Its strong muscles and hard shell could not withstand Ye Ge's cutting. With a flash of sword, the mutant fell down.

Leon was about to charge forward with his sword, but when he glanced at the fallen mutant, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "What is this?"

Inside the tall mutant's body that he cut open with his sword, there was a vaguely short human figure, whose flesh and blood were connected to the mutated body. Its specific appearance could no longer be seen, but judging from its posture, it was obviously not the body shape of an adult.

Edge, who was in charge of intelligence, also noticed this. He frowned and came to the mutant's body. He squatted down and touched it lightly. His hand trembled slightly: "I'm afraid this is..."

Leon next to him immediately understood something, his face froze, and he tightened his grip on Ye Ge's sword.

At this moment, several people wearing guard-like uniforms walked out from the corner in front and looked over here in unison.

Li You raised his eyebrows, not understanding what it meant for them to come out in an orderly manner at this time. However, he then noticed the injections in these people's hands and understood.

It turns out he's going to try the mutation trick again.

It seemed that he didn't need to do anything at the moment. Leon couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to rush up and chop these guys into pieces.

But at this moment.

"Pfft-"

There were muffled sounds of sharp blades entering flesh, and there were several sounds at the same time. The guards standing in a neat row in front were pierced through the body by the sharp blade tentacles coming from behind and lifted into the air!
Everyone: "!?"

Blood gushed out, and the Plaka in these guards' bodies quickly activated, trying to repair the host's injuries through mutation, but it was useless. Because the tentacles that penetrated their bodies were stronger individuals born from the black light parasites, they could even secrete some targeted toxins, which quickly disintegrated the resistance of the Plaka parasites.

“Plop—Plop!!”

With a few muffled sounds, the bodies of the guards fell down. As for the injections they had originally held in their hands, they were now rolled up by several tiny tentacles and slowly moved backwards, falling into the hands of a robed figure who walked out from the depths of the passage.

Experimental subject number two.

His typical Eden-style appearance naturally could not be hidden from everyone, and the face that was 90% similar to the previous giant was not missed by Li You. However, he was actually wrapped in a rag as a robe, which surprised Li You.

Subject No. 2 took several injections in his hands, then looked at Li You and his group with obvious hostility, paused for a moment before speaking: "You are the ones who killed my 'weapon', I recognize you."

This sentence confirmed his identity, but everyone was not nervous, they just watched what he was going to do.

However, the next action of this experimental subject who looked like a teenager stunned everyone.

He put the injection under his robe, looked in the direction of Leon and Yuzu, and bowed: "Please help us!"

Everyone: "???"

——Not to mention Leon and the others, even the people on Li You’s side were stunned by the unexpected behavior of the experimental subject.

What is this operation? Did you get the wrong script?
Subject No. 2 was unambiguous. Seeing that Leon and the others did not attack immediately, he immediately raised his head and explained: "I am Subject No. 2 of the Eden series. I want to save my sister! And you can do it!"

"Wait, wait," Leon reacted, "You? And your sister? Are you Experimental Subject No. 1? But why would you want to ask us for help?"

Number Two made it very clear: "Because Mother doesn't care whether we live or die, we will be abandoned once we complete our mission... We all have self-destruct programs in our bodies, which can kill us immediately as long as Mother wishes. This is the case for Numbers Four to Nine, my sister and I, Number Three, and countless other abandoned individuals."

Leon frowned, not knowing how to answer for a moment, and Li You stepped out at this time and asked: "How do you know this?"

"I became conscious at a very early age. I overheard this from the researchers working for my mother."

"Then why did you ask us for help?" Li You asked again, "If what you said is true, then you have a self-destruct system in your body. Even if we help you rescue your sister, we can't save your life."

Number Two looked at Yuzu at this time: "Because of him. I saw him before. He is a person similar to us! There are all kinds of mixed viruses and parasites in his body, but they are completely controllable. Mother also said that he was researched by you, which means that your technology should be stronger than Mother's, and you have a chance to save us!"

Li You couldn't help but look at him again. This experimental subject brought him too many surprises.

He also thought about it, and then said: "Your proposal is very interesting, but I have two questions."

"First of all, if we help you, what can you give us in return? It's impossible for us to be kind for nothing, right?"

Number Two replied: "I know all of Mother's arrangements. My sister and I are the key. You are here to stop Mother's Eden Project, right? As long as you rescue my sister and help me and her get rid of control, I can convince her to stand on your side and not destroy the old world!"

Li You nodded: "The price is reasonable, you are indeed very smart. Then this is my second question."

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes and stared at No. 2: "You and your 'sister' are not siblings just because of the order of the experimental subject numbers, right?"

Number Two's expression changed in a very human way. He hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "...You guessed right. My sister...is really my sister."
