Dr. Isaacs, What a Good Man! / Teammates Must Die! (Please Recommend, Bookmark, Vote, Comment, or Whatever!)
The so-called mutual betrayal earlier had merely been Ada and Kevin discussing an action plan through veiled language.
Fortunately, their tentative cross-server chat finally matched up their code words, and even their ideas for the operation happened to align.
After some bargaining, the commander had no choice but to take the risk himself and restrain the dormant Alice.
In the end, female agent Ada seized the opportunity to aim the electromagnetic interference gun at the spot Kevin indicated, pull the trigger, and destroy the electronic components inside.
Everything went surprisingly smoothly. After lowering everyone's guard, the two conspiring man and woman succeeded with ease.
"Bastard!"
Realizing he had been played, Dr. Isaacs lost his earlier composure. He immediately grabbed the remote control device from the metal table, preparing to activate Eden's guardian.
However, it was already too late!
The skin on the back of Alice's neck heated up and flushed crimson. Then, under the stimulation of the powerful electromagnetic infection, every electronic component embedded in her cervical vertebrae burned out.
The hollow-eyed "doll" immediately collapsed into Kevin's arms and fell unconscious.
Once everyone came to their senses, they excitedly rose to their feet. Just as they were preparing to capture Dr. Isaacs, the culprit, and seize the concentrated antidote, another change occurred.
Six Ghost Unit members wearing octopus-faced respirator masks and black combat uniforms poured out through the hidden door behind the control room, seized the high ground, and suppressed the entire scene.
"Thank you all for saving us quite a bit of time. Unfortunately, from this moment on, the party is over..."
Wolf Mom Ruper sneered as she announced their final victory to everyone present.
Led by Kevin, everyone in the hall wisely raised their hands in surrender. No one made any rash moves; they were as obedient as a flock of sheep.
"Get lost! You sewer rats, don't touch my things. Let those people talk to me!"
Dr. Isaacs stared darkly at the hidden door that had appeared in the control room, tightly clutching his final bargaining chip.
Clearly, he had not been fully trusted by Umbrella Corporation's upper management. Those capitalists were always wary of their own people, especially those skilled at infighting.
However, arrogant as Dr. Isaacs sounded, he had forgotten one crucial point.
He had no force at his side to guarantee his right to negotiate. Eden's guardian had already been paralyzed...
So the cold-faced Ghost Unit commander casually shot through Dr. Isaacs's skull and easily took the vial of concentrated antidote from his arms.
Seeing Dr. Isaacs's shocked expression, his eyes still open in death, Kevin felt a chill run through him and secretly exchanged glances with his teammates.
These people probably weren't here to provide rescue or uncover the truth...
They were here to silence everyone!
P.S. Personally, I think the protagonist and Ada look perfect together. Neither of them is a good person, right? Hilarious.
Prepare to stay hidden! The commander silently conveyed the tactical hand signal to the others, whose hearts were filled with a creeping chill.
As those executioners skillfully copied the data and destroyed the evidence, the Black commander James ignored Kevin's warning look and stood up to ask.
"Is the company planning to dispose of us too?"
Even if he was going to die, he did not want to die without understanding why. Some things had to be made clear.
The Ghost Unit commander smiled and shrugged. He casually picked up the remaining half-bottle of red wine from the metal table, poured it into another glass, and raised it toward James.
"No, no... The higher-ups aren't that heartless. You died in the line of duty for Umbrella, and your immediate family will receive a substantial pension."
The three surviving Umbrella Squad members immediately looked awful. Although Kevin had persuaded them before, they had still held onto a sliver of hope.
"All right, send our dear colleagues on their way. Remember to be gentle..."
At the commander's order, Wolf Pack Squad scout Victor and virus collection specialist Four Eyes stepped forward with M4 carbines in hand.
"Wait. I suggest you take a look at Dr. Isaacs. He can still be saved."
Kevin helplessly raised his hands, glancing toward the corpse in front of the console that had not yet gone cold.
"Don't try to stall for time. It's time for you to visit hell..."
Just as Wolf Mom Ruper dismissed Kevin's clumsy delaying tactic with disdain, medical support officer Bertha suddenly cried out behind her.
"Captain... he... he's moving!"
The six Wolf Pack Squad members stationed around the room immediately stopped what they were doing, turning to stare blankly at Dr. Isaacs, whose head wound had healed as he struggled to climb up from the floor.
What a formidable man! I underestimated him...
Kevin took the chance to lead his teammates back toward cover. Looking at the empty double-helix glass tube beneath the console and the wineglass Dr. Isaacs had used, he could not help feeling somewhat moved.
The man valued his life, but when it came time to make a decision, he could even be ruthless toward himself. He was absolutely the sort of person destined to become a tyrant.
Kevin had not expected him to mix the Modified T-Virus and the new neutralizer into the wine and drink it in advance.
That way, no matter how things ended, Dr. Isaacs would have one final safeguard for himself.
Clearly, he had won his gamble!
Now, the tyrant had returned from the dead, and it was time for his official revenge!
Even in death, he had not forgotten to benefit the public. Dr. Isaacs, what a good man...
Someone smacked his lips, wanting to squeeze out a few crocodile tears, but ultimately failed.
"Something's wrong! Open fire!"
Wolves were naturally cunning and sharp. Their perception of danger far exceeded that of ordinary people.
Thus, at Wolf Mom Ruper's command, all six of them turned their guns toward Dr. Isaacs's head and torso and opened fire together.
Under the concentrated barrage from their submachine guns, Dr. Isaacs, who had only just managed to sit up, had his head blasted into a beehive. His body trembled and swayed continuously under the impact of the bullets.
At that moment, plasma and bone fragments splattered everywhere throughout the second-floor control room. The thing called "Dr. Isaacs" was barely recognizable as human.
However, what was even more horrifying was that less than ten seconds after Wolf Pack Squad stopped firing, that lump of stitched-together flesh began to squirm and grow.
"Blow up that thing!"
Hearing this, Demolitions Expert Beltway immediately threw the adjusted C4 onto the writhing mass of flesh and detonated it remotely.
Yet only moments later, the strange thing before them began growing again.
Moreover, even focused gunfire could not destroy it as quickly as it healed!
Soon, that bloody, mangled thing transformed into a monster with long, narrow arms and ten fingers turned into sharp beast claws.
He had not only lost his basic human form, but an enormous eyeball had even bulged out from his right shoulder. Compound eyes began appearing on his chest, while the skin across his body blackened and swelled.
"Activate The Hive's self-destruct sequence! Evacuate immediately!"
Seeing this, Wolf Mom Ruper made a swift decision. She prepared to lead her team out of The Hive through the emergency elevator shaft, then use the self-destruct device to bury this complete monster.
Because this was no longer something ordinary weapons could handle.
"Dr. Isaacs! Those people killed you! What are you waiting for? Get revenge!"
At that moment, Kevin, temporarily huddled behind cover, saw Wolf Pack Squad preparing to flee immediately and bury them along with the mutated Dr. Isaacs in The Hive. He promptly egged him on.
Because his head had suffered heavy damage, even though Isaacs had mutated and revived, his intelligence was clearly no longer functioning properly.
Helplessly, Kevin could only hope his provocation would awaken Dr. Isaacs's instinctive hatred.
Bang! With astonishing leaping power, the mutated Dr. Isaacs moved later but arrived first, blocking the path to the emergency elevator. His savage gaze fixed on Wolf Pack Squad.
Seeing this unexpected complication, Wolf Mom Ruper was furious. She immediately gave Ghost and Four Eyes a cold-faced order.
"Deal with them first!"
Since they wanted to drag us down with them, send these bastards to hell first! Dense bullets bombarded everyone's hiding place in rapid succession.
However, after spending so long around dangerous people like Leon and Kevin, these teammates had already transformed and improved.
They might not have been the most skilled fighters, but they were definitely among those with the sharpest instincts for danger.
Thus, the moment Kevin finished speaking, they calmly found cover and huddled in the blind spots of the firing lines.
Even Kaplan, the computer expert with the slowest reactions and the weakest mental defenses, cleverly hid behind Kevin and did not dare stick his head out.
Roar!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At the same time, driven by instinct and hatred, the brain-damaged Dr. Isaacs charged at Wolf Pack Squad in a burst of speed.
Under the dense curtain of fire, Dr. Isaacs actually held his two-meter-long right arm across his body. The submachine gun bullets could not fully penetrate it.
"Spread out!"
Seeing that concentrated fire was ineffective, the alert team members scattered in all directions without even needing orders from Wolf Mom, avoiding the risk of being wiped out all at once.
Of course, when a pack of wolves hunted, high-mobility harassment and coordination between each other were the tactical soul of the unit.
Therefore, even during this near-escape-like withdrawal, they did not forget to cooperate and counterattack.
For a time, the bombs thrown by Demolitions Expert Beltway, the strange injections fired by virologist Four Eyes, the scalpels hurled by medic Bertha, and the coordinated weapons of the other members kept the mutated Dr. Isaacs busy responding.
While Wolf Pack Squad and Dr. Isaacs fought each other to the death, Kevin leaned behind cover and gasped for breath, his forehead slightly hot.
"The T-Virus in his body is about to flare up..."
Ada noticed that not only was the commander flushed, but several blisters had appeared on the back of his neck. Her voice carried a hint of helplessness.
"Damn it! There must be T-Virus neutralizer or antidote up there!"
The anxious policewoman snatched Barry's sidearm from his hand and immediately prepared to rush into the control room, searching for medicine right under the eyes of both sides in the melee.
However, before Kevin could stop her, Ada pulled the exposed Jill back. Then, she tossed a tube of green medicine into the policewoman's hands.
"Don't forget, you owe me a favor..."
The female agent's lips curled up in a charming smile.
The commander nodded perfunctorily. He had not expected that after all those twists and turns, the final vial of antidote would still end up being used on him.
However, Ada rolled her eyes seductively at Kevin's response and pointed her pale index finger at Jill.
"I'm afraid I can't accept your favor. She'll have to repay it..."
"Fine!" Jill injected the antidote into the commander's vein without hesitation and readily agreed to Ada's request.
At that moment, Kevin read the words hidden behind Ada's smiling lips and could not help darkening his expression.
"Darling, no need to thank me..."
Clearly, this cunning Vixen knew she could not get any reliable promise out of someone like herself, so she simply shifted her target to policewoman Jill.
The commander thought resentfully, becoming even more wary of Ada's cunning and intelligence.
Unfortunately, someone utterly lacking in romantic sensibility probably had no idea that there was such a thing as a helpful assist.

During the rare moment of respite, everyone briefly bandaged their wounds. Afterward, their attention was once again drawn to the two sides fighting on the second floor.
At this moment, the mutated Dr. Isaacs looked even stranger. The bones extending from his shoulders had formed wing-like structures beneath a layer of flesh membrane.
Meanwhile, foul yellow fluid flowed from the two pairs of compound eyes on his abdomen. Sharp claws extended from his limbs, and his body had grown to twice its previous size.
