Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 194 Direct Cause
If Jill encountered something like this outside, she would definitely intervene immediately. But right now, she doesn't even know who the other party is, so even if it's truly internal strife, it's not her place to stop it…

So this punch, without any fancy moves, pierced through the man's left chest, instantly turning his heart into minced meat... Then, the punch came out from Zheng Zha's back.

Zheng Zha stared blankly at Mu Xiang, but didn't even utter a cry of pain. There was no surprise or anger in his eyes, only the same dullness and bewilderment he had shown when talking to Jill.

Mu Xiang pulled out his fist and then shrugged: "The abilities of each of us have been greatly enhanced under the infection of the G virus... It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the G-Human of his ideal, or even a god."

[That's incredible...]

“But our abilities are all focused; aside from the ones that have been drastically enhanced, the improvements to the others aren’t as significant,” Mu Xiang said calmly. “And they all come at a heavy price…”

Mu Xiang pointed to his head: "My power has been greatly enhanced, as you should be able to see... The price is mental instability, making me very prone to falling into a madness of bloodlust and destruction."

Just as Jill was about to speak, her eyes suddenly widened...

Jill wasn't very surprised that Zheng Zha hadn't fallen before... She guessed that Mu Xiang must have his reasons for doing this, and perhaps Zheng Zha wouldn't die.

But at this moment, Zheng Zha not only did not fall down or die, but the hole in his left chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Jill stared intently at Zheng Zha's left chest, watching the flesh and blood writhe inside and the nascent organs take shape, until the fair skin covered the still-healing hole. Only then did Jill turn her head as if waking from a dream.

Given her personality, she certainly wouldn't blush or feel shy like that... but given Zheng Zha's personality, he was about to lose control.

"Have you seen enough?" Mu Xiang said calmly, diverting Jill's attention. "He has enhanced his resilience... but his brain has also been greatly affected, especially his thinking, which often becomes sluggish."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Zhan Lan, who waved to Jill with a grin.

“Her brain seems to be the most healthy of all of us, but a little too healthy… You’ve probably heard of theories about brainwaves, and her brainwaves are extremely developed, giving her abilities like telepathy.” Mu Xiang waved his hand. “Say hello to her again.”

The next moment, Jill looked at Zhan Lan in surprise: "Was it you who spoke in my mind just now?"

“That’s right,” Zhan Lan thought to herself as she answered.

Mu Xiang glanced at Zhan Lan: "Her flaw is that her body and mind are not compatible... Her mind is too active, while her body is aging, so we need to find a suitable body for her and then transfer her consciousness there."

“Wait…” Jill asked, frowning, “What do you mean by ‘suitable for her body’?”

Mu Xiang adjusted his glasses: "Don't you find it strange? As security personnel for Umbrella Corporation, we didn't seem to possess the necessary qualities during the Hive incident. You investigated that, didn't you?"

Jill didn't answer, she just looked at Mu Xiang.

“We are not only security personnel, but also a kind of experimental subject,” Mu Xiang said calmly. “According to the intelligence I have… both Alice and the rest of us have clones. Or rather, we ourselves may be clones… the body that suits her is naturally her clone.”

Jill frowned. "Does Umbrella Corporation have this kind of technology?" "You've even seen the Tyrant's bio-weapons... What's cloning technology?" Mu Xiang pressed his hand against the door. There were sounds of limbs colliding and low growls outside; zombies were banging on the door.

Jill paused for a moment: "I want to know how you disappeared at the end of your time in the Hive... Based on the internal intelligence I've obtained, your mysterious disappearance at the end doesn't seem to be the work of the Umbrella Corporation."

Mu Xiang smiled: "No problem... Our goal is to bring down the company, so after learning that your STARS members are still investigating, we decided to meet with you. So, are you willing to cooperate?"

“We need more evidence and witnesses, and of course, your own extraordinary abilities will be of great help to us…” Jill pondered for a moment, “Now I can cooperate with you on my behalf personally.”

"Very well, then let's leave here first." Mu Xiang smiled slightly, then exerted a little force with his hand, and the iron gate slammed open, knocking away all the zombies outside and smearing them onto a wall across the street.

The five people left through the back door of the store, and Mu Xiang then began his deception.

“You probably don’t know the reason for the virus outbreak in Raccoon City…” Mu Xiang explained the situation over the past few days to Jill.

Jill blushed, realizing she had missed so many things... As a police officer, well, even though she was suspended, being so slow to react was really unacceptable.

Mu Xiang walked at the front and glanced at Jill beside him: "The direct cause of this virus outbreak is a virus leak from an underground laboratory in Raccoon City. Although the virus in the Arklay Mountains has already leaked out, it is still a long way from triggering a large-scale simultaneous outbreak throughout the city."

“An underground laboratory? You mean the Hive?” Jill asked, puzzled.

Mu Xiang shook his head: "No, the infected and bioweapons of the Hive were almost all wiped out in a huge explosion after we disappeared... We'll talk about that later. In short, it's not just us who are fighting against Umbrella Corporation. There's a huge entity hiding behind the scenes watching Umbrella Corporation. But I still don't know who they are."

"The underground laboratory I was talking about is Dr. William Birkin's laboratory. I don't know if you've investigated him..." Mu Xiang said, "He is the developer of the G virus."

Jill was taken aback: "I do know this person, but... he's the developer of the G-virus you mentioned? He's also in Raccoon City?"

Mu Xiang sighed: "It seems your investigation missed a lot. The Umbrella Corporation has set up too many experimental bases in Raccoon City. If you need, we can take you there later... William Birkin applied for funding for the G-virus as early as 1991, but he was reluctant to hand over the results to the company."

"Furthermore, he frequently contacts high-ranking military officials, which makes the company fear that he might hand over the G-virus to the military as a pledge of allegiance. After all, theoretically speaking, the G-virus is very likely to be a much more powerful biological weapon than the T-virus and the Tyrant... So the company decided to take a hard line." Mu Xiang slapped away a zombie that was approaching, and the zombie's head exploded while it was still in the air.

"On September 21, a week ago, the special forces team on a mission infiltrated his lab and killed him. Their primary objective was to seize the G virus, but during the conflict, the T and G viruses in the lab leaked into the sewers and contaminated Raccoon City's water supply."

Mu Xiang snapped his fingers as he finished speaking: "Dr. William is an absolute genius, a top student of Marcus, a company veteran... Oh, and William also has another fellow student, guess who?"

Jill had only heard some famous stories about Marcus, and when Mu Xiang asked the question, she immediately shook her head.

"Albert Wesker".

“F**k!” Jill couldn’t help but curse.
