Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 502 False Information and Termination

"Uh, this guy is Isaacs's true form?" Six telekinetic floating cannons deployed behind Zhang Heng, and he asked uncertainly, "Didn't you say his true form was asleep?"

Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses and said with a half-smile, "Who knows? Now that this battle has been brought forward, many details can no longer be inferred from the movie... Perhaps the Red Queen noticed the intrusion and released him."

"But why does he act so arrogant?" Zhang Heng scratched his head. "Is he out of his depth? Does he think he has the upper hand?"

Dr. Isaacs, standing at the entrance, smiled elegantly: "When you woke me, the Red Queen had already told me your previous intelligence... Unfortunately, you overestimated your own strength and underestimated the intricacy of the Red Queen's underlying logic. With your information, it was not enough to make the Red Queen betray me."

As they spoke, a piercing alarm sounded throughout the hibernation chamber, and all the hidden mechanisms revealed their fangs.

Zhang Heng shook his head, and a floating cannon, imbued with telekinetic power, shot out. Dr. Isaacs sidestepped, dodging the impact of the cannon.

“I am also very interested in the technology you possess… With these, it seems easier to rebuild a new world.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Heng was about to start cursing, but Mu Xiang and Liu Xi exchanged a glance and said nothing. A figure too small to be seen with the naked eye flew through the air; it was Zhao Yingkong, checking the mechanisms to ensure Alice's operation wouldn't be interrupted.

Dr. Isaacs was brimming with confidence. He had already been implanted with Umbrella Corporation's most advanced combat system, allowing him to anticipate the enemy's movements. Furthermore, certain modifications to his body gave him physical attributes comparable to the most perfect T-virus test subject, with strength, speed, and self-healing abilities all exceeding human capabilities.

According to Red Queen's intelligence, the strength of the people in front of him was only on par with Alice's. With the home advantage, he was quite confident.

"Then, what about this one?" Zhang Heng formed hand seals and pretended to be flying a sword. The floating cannons that had missed earlier, along with three other cannons, crashed towards Dr. Isaacs from different directions.

Dr. Isaacs' eyes showed a hint of surprise, but he still managed to leap out of the gap in the telekinetic floating cannons and escape the encirclement.

Watching Zhang Heng and Dr. Isaacs's performance, Mu Xiang thought that if Dr. Isaacs had appeared when he had just strengthened his bloodline and returned to the Hive for the first time, he might have been able to put some effort into it. However, now, Dr. Isaacs's seemingly swift movements only made Mu Xiang want to yawn.

If it weren't for giving Zhang Heng some practice, this guy wouldn't even have had a chance to speak.

Zhang Heng nodded slightly as he watched Dr. Isaacs dodge. To be fair, while it wasn't only fourth-tier beings who could dodge the impact of the floating cannons, it still required considerable reaction speed. The guy in front of him, who seemed to be Dr. Isaacs's true form, seemed to have a speed and reaction speed that exceeded the range of second-tier beings.

However, he overestimated his opponent. In fact, Dr. Isaacs himself didn't possess any particularly noteworthy combat awareness... His combat prowess came from the combat system, and his previous evasions were merely following the system's instructions and guidance. Dr. Isaacs himself was already greatly alarmed.

So when the other two floating cannons fired their telekinetic shock beams, Dr. Isaacs was blasted into dust before he could even scream... This stunned Zhang Heng, who looked at Mu Xiang after a long while: "He was so confident just now, but this is all he's capable of?"

Mu Xiang shrugged: "Perhaps he received the wrong information... Judging from his words just now, this guy doesn't understand the current situation at all." As he said this, he looked towards Alice's direction... A hibernation pod was opened, and an old woman woke up from it. At this moment, she and Alice were looking at each other in silence.

Zhang Heng asked in a low voice, "Is this Alice's true form?"

Mu Xiang nodded.

Many of the figures operating outside the Umbrella Corporation are actually clones. For example, Dr. Isaacs, Wesker, and even Alice and a series of mercenaries—their identities are all clones. Some clones know their true identities, while others do not, but ultimately, they are all just cannon fodder for the higher-ups.

This is also why Dr. Isaacs, who always believed himself to be the original and in charge of everything, broke down and killed his own original self in Resident Evil 6.

However, thanks to the Central Continent Team's prior planning and the Red Queen's intentional or unintentional cooperation, Dr. Isaacs's true form was killed without his knowledge. Originally incapable of being killed by the Red Queen, he was prematurely awakened through a perfectly procedural process, and then became Zhang Heng's prey...

Mu Xiang looked at Alicia, who appeared even older than Dr. Isaacs due to progeria, and chuckled softly: "We can say that our investigation into the side story has come to an end... Killing all the core executives of Umbrella Corporation ahead of time and helping Alice regain her childhood memories is most likely a side story. Let's go, their emotional manipulation is not something we need to get involved in."

Zhao Yingkong glanced at Alicia and Alice not far away, a faint glint in her eyes.

memory……

In this battle, Umbrella Corporation's armed forces were completely destroyed, its true headquarters were invaded, and all the still-dormant high-ranking officials, along with the deep base beneath the Hive, were crushed to pieces. Although Mu Xiang's actions greatly displeased the military, which wanted to obtain more intelligence, and certain biopharmaceutical giants, no one dared to make a move.

Although the world's situation has been greatly affected by this war, it's still far better than being plunged into a global biohazard crisis. After the Umbrella Corporation's destruction, there will be more power struggles and infighting over the distribution of profits, which might even trigger secondary crises... but all of that is irrelevant to the Central Continent Team.

"We've ended the entire series and completed many of the later storylines ahead of schedule..." Leaning against the window, Mu Xiang said to everyone, "Although our strength resulted in a less-than-generous basic reward, the difficulty of the mission increased due to the span of multiple movies and the handling of additional details, so it's still barely acceptable."

Zhang Jie, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, chuckled, "Generally speaking, completing the storyline ahead of time increases the difficulty level by one, ultimately resulting in double the rewards... And aside from the random rewards your team received, we also received triple the rewards for ending the entire series. But it seems the main god didn't add any special difficulty for you."

Mu Xiang shrugged: "Perhaps it's because I've already reached the fourth tier of strength, so the main god didn't strip me of my enhancements? I'm not sure. The triple reward might be because the horror movie has a wide range of content, which increases the difficulty level even more. But one A-level side quest and 15,000 reward points for everyone is barely acceptable."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions varied. Back then, after exhausting themselves completing a dimensional redemption mission, the entire team only received one A-level side quest and 15,000 reward points... This time, returning was as easy as a vacation, yet they still gained so much. Considering the random rewards from obtaining the T-virus source, slaughtering Umbrella Corporation executives, and helping Alice regain her memories, the cost-effectiveness seems much higher.

"Although I'm very unhappy with the way the main god forcibly pushes the plot forward... it's also made you guys make more money, and at least you can strengthen your power even more." Mu Xiang shook his head.
