Chapter 252 Transition Chapter

Fu Qinghai found the shape of Cathy Wheeler's biological shell quite interesting. He didn't know what the Plaka parasite would become if it continued to develop. Strong armor? Or Tyranids?

In fact, looking back at the previous generations of viruses and molds, we can find that the various villain organizations in Resident Evil all use these microorganisms and parasites as a genetic engineering carrier, just like E. coli and bacteriophages are the most commonly used genetic engineering carriers in the real world. Genes are constantly combined and improved to try to create more perfect organisms.

In other words, although the technology of Resident Evil is currently not very good, has many side effects, and a high probability of failure, it may be able to develop to the level of "genetic ascension" if given a certain amount of time.

Perfect Humanity, a reincarnation society that developed from the Resident Evil multiverse, can be said to have integrated the technological strength of many villain organizations such as Umbrella Corporation, Trinity Pharmaceuticals, the Alliance, the Church of Illuminati, Shen'A Corporation, FBC, and Wefamar Pharmaceuticals. It may indeed be the player organization most likely to realize this ambition.

…

Fu Qinghai killed the "giant carnivorous plant", and most of the parasite hosts that retained their intelligence hid in the intricate underground space of the underground maze city.

[Biochemistry]: Plaka parasite.

After obtaining research data on the Plaka parasite, Fu Qinghai did not chase after the escaped hosts. Instead, under the leadership of Huxley, he went to another laboratory that was more deeply hidden.

The two followed the secret passage to the lower space.

This is where the perfect human uses Huxley's special abilities to conduct antibody production experiments.

It can be seen that the researchers here evacuated in a hurry. Most of the experimental equipment and samples were left intact and had not been destroyed in time.

Fu Qinghai came to a computer, clicked on the experiment log, and asked casually:

"What stage is it at?"

Huxley still had a lingering fear about this place. After thinking about it carefully, he said:

"By the time they were drawing my blood, I was already fuzzy and couldn't even hear what they were saying. I didn't know what stage the experiment had reached."

Fu Qinghai looked at the information displayed on the screen, stroked his chin and said,

"Hmm... Kripin virus."

The Kripin virus, according to the experimental log, was the first virus Huxley was injected with, and it was the same virus that caused the birth of the human death demon in "I Am Legend".

In the original novel, the virus was developed by Dr. Alice Crippen in 1999 based on the measles virus using gene editing technology. It was originally intended to treat cancer, and it did cure cancer, so it was promoted on a large scale with the support of the US FDA. However, the virus subsequently mutated, leading to this world-destroying disaster.

[Biochemistry] Another item added: Cripin virus.

The Crippen virus failed to kill Huxley, nor did it turn him into a night demon, but it did extract corresponding antibodies from his body. This was the first experimental result of the perfect human being.

Fu Qinghai rolled the mouse wheel and continued to read.

After the Crippin virus, the subsequently injected Progenitor virus, T virus, and a series of derivative viruses starting with T, all failed to kill Huxley, and antibodies were extracted from all of them, but the remaining viruses had not yet been tried.

Wow, it really is a biochemical nemesis.

Fu Qinghai turned his head and glanced at Huxley.

Although he was wearing goggles, Huxley vaguely felt that the look in his eyes was somewhat malicious.

"Huxley, tell me, I released you once, saved you once, and helped you get revenge... How should you repay me for this favor?"

Fu Qinghai spoke quietly.

"Gulp."

Huxley swallowed.

I thought to myself what did you mean by "let me go this time"? It was clearly me who ran away that time.

I thought this in my heart, but I didn't dare say it out loud.

Huxley stammered:

"Qingshan, I, I know what you mean, but my physical condition is not very good now. Can you wait until I recover before we discuss this matter?"

Fu Qinghai laughed:

"Well, you are thoughtful."

Fu Qinghai thought: When you were caught in the sky by the flying dragon, your screams were so loud and powerful that they could be heard from a long distance away, and you didn't seem to be that weak.

The researchers took away the serum samples of virus antibodies when they evacuated, but Huxley himself was in Fu Qinghai's hands and he was fully aware of the experimental process, so it should be easy for him to replicate it.

Fu Qinghai led Huxley back to the outskirts of the ruins.

When he saw the corpses around the tank, he realized that when he was charging deep into the secret base, the enemy had also sent some hosts of subordinate parasites to try to attack the tank crew.

However, facing the huge iron turtle of the Leman Rust tank, conventional weapons were ineffective against the adamantine armor, and instead left behind a large number of unrecognizable corpses.

"Chen Xinlu, follow me."

Fu Qinghai said.

…

Different from the small valley in Shelter 79.

The underground maze city is really too big.

Fu Qinghai had no interest in a thorough search.

Open the door to the dimension, collect supplies, and pack them up to take away.

Having obtained the most valuable research data, what remained was the routine operation every time a secret base was found. Fu Qinghai moved boxes of food, water and fuel onto the Troy logistics vehicle. He knew that those who had escaped were hiding in the dark and observing quietly, but they dared not speak out, and no one wanted to come out and offend Fu Qinghai.

Compared with other city ruins, the supplies in the underground maze city are relatively abundant. A large number of survivors and reincarnations live here. Although they are all infected with the Plaka parasites, it does not affect their exploration and collection of various usable things. Fu Qinghai accepted them one by one without hesitation.

The My Little Pony, loaded with a lot of harvest, patted its butt and left the underground maze in the sky full of dust.

…

Continue heading north.

Fu Qinghai discovered that there were many unmarked "blank areas" in the north of the continent on the map of perfect humans. These places did not have secret bases and observation stations of perfect humans, but that did not mean they were deserted. Fu Qinghai decided to go and find out.

The crew of three women and one man now has one more person, Huxley. According to the basic principle of gender differences, Fu Qinghai and Huxley should ride in one car, and the three girls should ride in another car.

However, Chen Xinlu and others said that they did not want to squeeze together with Huxley, a middle-aged uncle, so poor Huxley was driven into the Troy logistics vehicle, where he barely found a place to stay among the full loads of supplies.

The journey begins again.

To this day, the three women feel that they are extremely lucky to know Fu Qinghai. In the Resident Evil movie universe that other reincarnations hate, following Fu Qinghai is like traveling. It is not only safe and guaranteed, but they also have food, drink and can take a shower.

This guy always gives people a very reliable feeling.

…

My Little Pony stopped and started along the way, crossing mountains, canyons, and rivers.

Today, in the evening, the tank crew temporarily stationed on a hillside selected by Fu Qinghai.

Astartes' profound military qualities have made Fu Qinghai experienced and accurate in planning routes, avoiding obstacles, selecting garrison locations, etc. The three women have become accustomed to not having to use their brains throughout the process and just obey Fu Qinghai's arrangements. They do whatever he tells them to do and go wherever he tells them to go.

An iron pot was placed on the gas stove, and food was boiling inside. The aroma of food was wafting around, making everyone present swallow their saliva.

Fu Qinghai's signature stew.

It can be seen that before entering the reincarnation world, even if Chen Xinlu, Jiang Yixia and Li Xingxian were not pampered young ladies, they were at least well-off. They had never cooked and had no idea about the word "cooking".

Fu Qinghai had no choice but to throw all the canned food, instant noodles and seasonings he found into the big pot according to his simple understanding of cooking, and boil them until they were done.

At least it tastes much better than ration bars.

By looking at the production date and production address on the food packaging bag, it is easy to determine whether the food was produced before the end of the world. If this information is not printed, the source of the food remains a mystery and people will not choose to eat it.

Fu Qinghai scooped a large spoonful of steaming stew from the empty cans in front of each person. Inside, one could see the paste of compressed biscuits, the head of dace soaked in black beans, half of the body of pickled sardines, and large chunks of fat from canned braised pork.

Huxley was eating a can of baked beans in tomato sauce with great relish. Jiang Yixia opened a small flat can of sturgeon caviar with his bare hands. Although it was expired, Jiang Yixia still scooped up a spoonful and tasted it. Then he squinted his eyes beautifully and scooped up another spoonful and handed it to Fu Qinghai's mouth.

Fu Qinghai looked at the spoon in front of him, which was still stained with Jiang Yixia's saliva, but he still opened his mouth and ate it.

The caviar was a bit fishy.

Li Xingxian glanced at Huxley and said:

"Is that stuff really delicious?"

Before Huxley could answer, Chen Xinlu sipped the instant stew and said calmly,

"Canned baked beans in tomato sauce are a must-have for breakfast for British and American people."

The words contained contempt for food desert areas.

Fu Qinghai smiled and interjected,

"Actually, the taste isn't that bad. Baked beans in tomato sauce is Rorschach's favorite food. I still remember it clearly."

"Who is Rorschach?"

Jiang Yixia asked curiously.

Fu Qinghai stirred the spoon and explained,

"A superhero from DC, and also my favorite superhero character."

oh...

Jiang Yixia silently kept this information in mind.

Huxley finished the food in front of him, put down the empty can shell, and said to Fu Qinghai:

"I'm done, Qingshan. I'm going back to the car."

Fu Qinghai nodded.

Huxley just returned to the Troy logistics vehicle. Jiang Yixia said "hot", then took off his sweatshirt, walked over and sat next to Fu Qinghai, trying to find a topic to chat with him.

Chen Xinlu watched coldly.

The temperature outside the car is sixteen degrees. You are hot, but you are hot as hell.

The reason why Huxley has managed to survive till now is not just because of his X-gene ability.

He has a high emotional quotient, is particularly perceptive, and is good at observing people's words and expressions and adjusting to the situation.

Originally, Huxley realized that Fu Qinghai was the key to whether he could safely survive this reincarnation world, like a super thick leg, so he particularly wanted to have a good relationship with Fu Qinghai. From time to time, he would come to chat with Fu Qinghai, share some reincarnation information and interesting gossip that he knew, agree with him in various ways during the conversation, and flatter Fu Qinghai without showing it.

But Huxley soon discovered that whenever he was present, the three women had cold faces, spoke little, and occasionally glanced at him with unfriendly eyes.

After Huxley reacted, he immediately and tactfully rolled back into the armored vehicle and stopped being a light bulb in front of the three women.

After finishing the meal, clear the dishes.

It was getting dark, so everyone returned to the tank.

Just as he was about to get into the cabin, Chen Xinlu suddenly grabbed Jiang Yixia and whispered:

"Asha, let me talk to you alone."

Jiang Yixia turned around, confused.

But he still followed Chen Xinlu and walked away.

After a satisfying meal, the sun sets.

The two of them walked slowly along the hillside until they reached a place where Fu Qinghai's Force perception and Leman's ears could not hear them. Chen Xinlu slowed down her pace. The breeze blew the two girls' hair. The afterglow of the setting sun spread over the distant ridge. The tough and sparse weeds rustled under their feet.

"You like him, don't you?"

Chen Xinlu turned and looked at Jiang Yixia.

Jiang Yixia shrugged:

"Well, you figured it out."

Jiang Yixia admitted it so generously that Chen Xinlu was silent for a moment. She thought about it and said slowly:

"You know he has a girlfriend, and my sister..."

"Xinxue just has a crush on him, that's all!"

Jiang Yixia interrupted without any hesitation.

She stopped, turned around and faced Chen Xinlu, and said seriously:

"Xinxue never said that she liked him, right? And she never really got together with him, right?"

Looking at Jiang Yixia's eyes full of seriousness, Chen Xinlu had to admit:

"Yes..."

She-Hulk smiled brightly:

"That's it."

Jiang Yixia turned around and continued walking forward, saying nonchalantly as he walked:

"They just experienced a reincarnation world together. They haven't seen each other for many reincarnations. No matter how much they like each other, they shouldn't be obsessed with each other, right? Besides, there are many men in the reincarnation world. I can introduce one to Xinxue some other day and that'll be it."

Who do you know to introduce her to someone...Besides, Chen Xinxue has many suitors, so there is no need for you to introduce her.

Chen Xinlu complained inwardly.

"As for my girlfriend..."

Jiang Yixia looked up at the slowly setting sun in the distance, pursed his lips, and said to himself,

"What's wrong with having a girlfriend? Even if there is a goal, the ball still goes in. I just like him, and I'll get him even if I have to. But Zhang Yuning is a spiritual reincarnation, so I'm at a disadvantage against her."

Having said that, Jiang Yixia turned to look at Chen Xinlu:

"I still have you here, and you're not afraid of those supernatural monsters and ghosts. I'm relying on you to pick up men, Xiaolu."

"You'll help me, won't you?"

Jiang Yixia blinked at Chen Xinlu.

"I..."

Chen Xinlu hesitated, not knowing what to say.

Jiang Yixia looked at Chen Xinlu with a smile and said:

"Why, you're not happy? Are you also..."

"No!"

Chen Xinlu shook her head decisively:

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Yixia glanced at her disapprovingly and said slowly:

"It's okay, Xiaolu. We are good sisters who have been through thick and thin together. He's just a man. When I've had enough fun, I can share it with you. I don't mind at all."

Chen Xinlu covered her forehead:

"Stop talking..."

…

The two of them walked and chatted, walking further and further away, and gradually out of the tank's field of vision.

Night falls quietly.

Jiang Yixia put his hands in his pockets, stood on a stone, turned his head and said to Chen Xinlu:

"It's getting dark. We've walked far enough. Let's go back."

"Um."

Chen Xinlu nodded, and the two turned around side by side and prepared to walk back.

Just at this moment.

"Click."

A barely perceptible sound, like a dead branch being crushed, came from the shadow behind the stone.

Jiang Yixia and Chen Xinlu immediately became nervous.

The two looked at each other and turned to look in that direction.

A tall humanoid creature stood quietly in the shadows, staring at the two women.

He is over three meters tall, with a sturdy body covered with sickly gray-green rough skin, an ugly face, thick lips, and holding a gun. From his aggressive eyes, it can be seen that he is not a confused zombie, but he is certainly not a human being.

Orc? Orc? Neither.

There are no two types of orcs' iconic tusks.

"What the hell is this?"

Jiang Yixia frowned.
