I'm just an internet cafe owner

Tina took a deep breath, and watching as Claire, Chris, and Piris successfully boarded the escape pod and escaped, Claire breathed a sigh of relief. The final battle was truly thrilling.

Claire successfully found three different types of the drug. After injecting the destructive agent into the Chaos Zombie, Pierce and Chris found some heavy weapons.

In addition, since this chaotic zombie was not fully developed, the four of them successfully eliminated the last zombie and boarded the escape pod to leave.

The final scene of the game freezes on the opening of the hatch, showing the helicopter search and rescue operation outside.

"It's over, it's over... Next up should be 7 and 8, right?"

Tina leaned back wearily in her chair. She'd been playing games intensely ever since she entered the internet cafe that day. The sixth installment had a lot of story, but in Real Mode, multiple storylines developed simultaneously, making the actual gameplay experience faster.

But it's not a big problem! The most exciting thing for Tina after clearing the level was to select her reward, but she was stunned when she entered the reward selection page.

"Boss..." Before she could even wave, Liu Yuan, who had been standing behind her watching, said directly, "Your reward this time includes a Gastrea Virus Potion Package, which is what you need. For the rest, choose Ada Wong's Heart-Shaped Rocket Launcher with Unlimited Ammo!"

"Huh? Unlimited ammo?"

"You didn't know that, did you! This is a long-standing Resident Evil tradition: unlimited ammo. Take your pick. The rest is up to you. Oh, and remember to collect the hidden reward."

"Hidden reward?"

Tina perked up immediately, while Liu Yuan explained from the side, "The Resident Evil series is a bit special. If you complete 1 to 6, including the other spin-offs and movies, then you've completed it perfectly. Ethan's storyline is counted separately."

While listening to Liu Yuan's explanation, Tina chose her game rewards. Just as Liu Yuan had said, she absolutely had to get her hands on the potion specifically targeting the Gastrea virus. She checked the effects; the fusion agent was meant to preserve the Cursed Child's characteristics, giving it sufficient power.

The Destroyer completely eradicates the Gastrea virus, reducing the infection rate to below one percent and ensuring no recurrence under natural conditions. However, the infection rate must be below ten percent; otherwise, irreversible effects will occur. The Neutralizer Inhibitor reduces the Gastrea virus activity by more than ten percent. Using it while maintaining human form reduces the infection rate by about ten percent and grants the user the power of a cursed child, but this power will be reduced by about half.

The production cost is extremely low. Tina estimated that as long as she could acquire a mature production line, the cost of one dose might be less than one hundred yuan. As long as it's not used to harm Gastrea or overuse its abilities, the infection rate wouldn't change within ten years. Even if it did increase, it could be reduced using neutralizing agents.

The combination of these medications perfectly met Tina's needs.

"Phew, I can relax now."

Next, Tina was rewarded with unlimited ammo for the rocket launcher, unlimited ammo for the anti-material sniper rifle, and the perfect C-virus. In all her previous playthroughs, whenever the perfect virus option was available, Tina would absolutely choose it.

This thing is incredibly effective. Any cursed child can have their internal viral balance balanced and their combat power greatly enhanced by injecting the virus.

"I'll use it as soon as I get back; things have been a bit chaotic lately..."

Tina's Tokyo area is about to be attacked by Gastrea, and there's a lot of mess to deal with.

After receiving the completion reward, Tina also saw the final hidden reward.

"Whether to synchronize the Resident Evil world with the player's time scale, so that the game time flow will slow down when the player leaves the game."

Upon seeing this sentence, Tina excitedly stood up.

"Stay calm~"

Liu Yuan pressed down on her shoulder and said, "A hidden achievement. You can get this reward by not dying once from the first chapter to the end. But remember, as for Ethan's storyline, you can already stop it with your current strength, right?"

"Boss! Thank you!!!"

"You're thanking the wrong person. This is the result of your own hard work. Enjoy your game world."

Liu Yuan left. Realistic Mode—if it can't become a real world, then what's the point of talking about realism? Just unlocking Realistic Mode is incredibly difficult, let alone completing all the content consecutively. But after completing it, this world can be treated as another world of one's own, allowing one to experience life in another world.

This also allows players to reach the final ending together with their comrades who fought alongside them. Of course, if you can't accept the ending of getting old and the game ending, you don't have to enter the game.

Time flows very slowly within the game; in reality, only a few days have passed in the past few years.

Tina was very happy, and this state lasted until she returned home, when Chizu Natsuyo poured cold water on her.

"Tina, don't forget about the outside world."

In that instant, Tina calmed down.

The situation outside is dire, with the Aldebaran Gastrea army gathering around the outskirts of the Tokyo area. Due to the Gastrea siege, the entire Tokyo area is in a state of utter chaos.

"Indeed, Xia Shi, how's your progress?"

"We've successfully contacted 80% of the outer Cursed Children within the entire region, but their mental age is too young..."

The children of the curse are generally around ten years old, while those on the periphery who were abandoned have a slightly older mental age, but only slightly. Forget reading, even literacy is rare.

“We need the Holy Emperor’s assistance, but before that, Xia Shi, find a way to move the people on the periphery. I’ll try to contact the Holy Emperor. She’s the administrator of the Tokyo area, and she has the idea and actions to enact the ‘Cursed Child Law.’ We need to help her. This time, we might need to perform well.”

"Yes!"

A city map lay before Tina, marking most of the Outer Cursed Children she could find. With the Gastrea invasion imminent, these companions might face inhuman treatment.

Living in the Resident Evil world isn't just about fighting zombies; she also used examples to hypothesize about an apocalypse, such as how the cursed child could obtain human rights.

A rash act of resistance would only make the cursed children of Tokyo and even the entire Japanese region targets, leaving no chance for a comeback.

She now has three major tasks to complete.

1. Guide public opinion, gradually changing the impression of the "Children of the Curse" online, emphasizing that they are also human and not contagious after using inhibitors. Change public sentiment through rhetoric. Also, win over those with normal perceptions, such as police officers and members of the "Initiators" organization. About half of the police officers consider the Initiators like family, especially the orphaned officers, who are all potential targets for recruitment.

2. She will take the lead herself, giving the children of the curse a broad direction for development, and she must emphasize education. Having experienced the Resident Evil crisis, she deeply understands the importance of literacy. Many machines are intelligently operated, and those who cannot read may not even be able to operate them in the most basic way.

3. Unite with leaders like the Holy Emperor who are willing to change the situation of the cursed children, and use laws from top to bottom to change the situation of the cursed children.

Only by pursuing all three paths simultaneously can the cursed child's situation be completely changed.

The first two steps are already underway; now we need to proceed with the third step: making contact with the Holy Emperor.

However, the potions and formulas she possesses must never be revealed, especially the destructive agents. At the very least, she cannot hand them over until the treatment of the cursed children is improved worldwide.

After all, this is a relatively stable period; the number of people dying from Gastrea each day is probably less than those dying from traffic accidents. At this point, it's not a good time to use destructive agents. But fusion agents and neutralizing agents…

Chapter 88 Tina Wants to Change the Living Environment of the Cursed Child

Tina successfully made her way to the Holy Emperor's room.

The Holy Emperor was not asleep at this time, and she was protected by personal guards outside the house.

The Holy Emperor glanced at the time; it was already late at night, time to rest. But before she could lie down, she heard the window open. Before she could speak, Tina stopped her.

"Tina Sprite".

"you are?"

The Holy Emperor, of course, knew who Tina was; her arrest warrant had never been issued. According to the warrant, Tina was guilty of heinous crimes, murdering civilians, destroying public facilities, and even pinning the deaths of some police officers on her.

However, during this time, the Holy Emperor discovered many suspicious points while reviewing Tina's related documents. Therefore, when Tina revealed her name, the Holy Emperor calmed down.

"Please... help the cursed child."

“Tina…”

The Holy Emperor looked at Tina, who had her head bowed, and felt a mix of emotions. She, too, longed to improve the treatment of the cursed children. After all, they were just children infected with the virus; they hadn't done anything wrong.

Here's a joke: if you include the number of Initiators who sacrifice themselves, fewer Children of the Curse die each year than those who run outside the city walls and die recklessly. And those who die because of the Children of the Curse are the ones who deliberately infect others, raising their infection rates so they mutate on the spot and kill everyone around them.

“I will help you, but Tina, can I meet the person behind you?”

As the leader of the Tokyo area, she had been closely monitoring information across the region. During this time, the number of Cursed Children on the outskirts began to decrease, and they even disappeared altogether. At the same time, positive comments about the Cursed Children appeared online, leading her to realize that someone might be secretly manipulating the situation.

She knew the Tokyo area all too well; those old guys all wished the Cursed Child dead. While some police officers and civilians were indeed kind to the Cursed Child, their attitude was definitely not as compliant as it was online.

Yes, the online content seemed scattered, but the activity level was unusually high. She couldn't find some of the data, but after comparison, she found that the data was actually real.

That's why she suspected that Tina had an organization helping her.

Tina was stunned. Did she have an organization behind her? No, she didn't. So how did she come up with those plans? It might sound a bit mysterious, but she consulted with players from all over the world while playing the game.

So, in the game's timeline of 2000, she created a forum. The forum hypothesized a world where global order had collapsed based on a biohazard, and some of the children born in this world were infected with the virus. It also simulated the experiences and levels of the infected. At the same time, Tina would occasionally fabricate stories about real events in her own world and post them on the game's forum.

The results were encouraging. After more than a decade of development, the forum became very famous in niche circles, and some people even used Tina's real-life experiences as inspiration to write many novels.

Then the popularity of these novels made the forum even more popular.

Through countless discussions among netizens and experts, one solution after another was released. Tina tried them one by one, and finally chose the three solutions that are currently being implemented.

So there's no one really behind it, but the ones who devised the plans are all netizens in the game world.

However, these people are really capable. They know everything from astronomy to geography, and some even come up with ideas to rebel. All sorts of situations can happen.

Judging from the Holy Emperor's attitude, he probably didn't believe this statement.

Tina hesitated for a long time before nodding: "Okay, I'll go ask."

No sooner had she said she'd ask than she contacted Liu Yuan via TT. Liu Yuan had already locked the door and taken off his clothes, preparing to sleep. He locked the door not because he was afraid of a night raid, but because he was afraid Jibril might be up to no good and steal his clothes in the middle of the night.

Liu Yuan turned off the lights, lay in bed, and had just said goodnight to the air when he saw Tina's message.

He was silent at this moment. He had been cultivating immortality for several days. Although his physical condition and mental state were much better now, not sleeping for too long would still have an effect.

"I'd like to see which scoundrel is messaging me in the middle of the night. Oh? Tina! Never mind then."

After reading Tina's information, Liu Yuan sighed. If he went to Tina's world again, he would have been there three times already, and he would have spent tens of thousands of yuan in that world anyway.

But thinking about Tina's situation today, he could only sigh helplessly: "It's an investment, it's an investment. It's only Tina who's involved. From now on, if anyone asks me to go, I won't go unless they pay me!"

Liu Yuan put on his clothes and went downstairs. As soon as he got downstairs, he saw Mu Geng playing Red Alert with Jibril.

"You guys have fun, I'm going out for a bit."

"Good~"

While frantically ordering mobilization orders, Kisara suddenly remembered something and shouted to Liu Yuan, "Boss, a bottle of iced cola, please."

"I also want."

Liu Yuan took out two bottles of iced cola and accurately threw them over the heads of the two men before reminding Jibril, "Jibril, this will be added to your debt."

"Good~"

Anyway, he can run away in thirty years, and based on his daily calculations, a bottle of Coke is nothing. However, Liu Yuan's records are not based on actual prices.

A bottle of Coke costs 20 yuan, so let's round it up to 20,000 yuan. Jibril not only worked for nothing today, but she also lost money.

Upon arriving in the Dark Bullet World, Liu Yuan didn't immediately go to Tina's place. Instead, he wandered around for a while, as it seemed unreal that he had arrived so soon after agreeing to the agreement. He glanced at the Gastrea army outside, measured the range of his divine body transformed into a sword, and finally looked at the immortal sword in his backpack.

Feeling incredibly confident in himself, Liu Yuan gloated for a while before arriving at Tina's location. Tina was already standing in a large hall, which contained not only the Holy Emperor but also her assistant, the Heavenly Child Kikunojo, and guards.

However, apart from the Holy Emperor, everyone else seemed to be looking at Tina strangely.

Liu Yuan observed carefully and concluded that Tian Tong was a typical politician. He was capable of winning people over with enough benefits, and he was very shrewd. It was impossible to discern any of his thoughts from his expressions and eyes.

However, the captain of the guard named Howaki Takuto had a strange look in his eyes, and his desire to kill Tina was written all over his face, which was also clearly shown through his body language and micro-expressions.

Looking at the Holy Emperor again, Liu Yuan sighed helplessly. He was too young and lacked any real composure; he probably relied entirely on the old man beside him for support.

Liu Yuan's sudden appearance instantly put everyone in the hall on edge, because they recognized him as the man who had caused a ruckus in the Tokyo area and killed many people a while ago.
