Mind Shock (Pseudo): An algorithm constructed by the [Red Queen] motherboard and the [Apocalypse Combat System], forming a mental field. Power is weakened, effective range is 5 meters, usable 1 time.

Kevin's eyes were bloodshot. Even with the external thought-assistance system shouldering most of the pressure, this kind of overloaded brain computation was still deadly for him.

"Get out of the way!"

The Commander, holding Alice, lunged forward. He bent down to dodge the sweeping claws and happened to step within five meters of the mutated creature.

As the Commander roared, Ada and Leon, the most alert among them, felt their scalps go numb as they looked at him, his eyeballs bulging and oozing blood tears.

Without hesitation, they grabbed Jill, who was still waiting in place, and rushed into the elevator, closing the inner door.

At the same time, ripples spread through the air, and the alloy floor cracked as if torn and crushed. The mutated creature, which had opened its massive maw to feed, was sent flying by the concentrated mental shock.

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!" The dense cluster of yellowish-red eyeballs around Dr. Isaacs exploded simultaneously, spewing out yellowish-red fluid.

The massive body, deeply embedded in the steel wall, twitched irregularly from time to time, like a lab rat whose main nerves had been severed.

"Go!"

The [Red Queen] motherboard, sparking with electricity in Kevin's hand, slipped to the ground. The Commander let out a weak growl before his body leaned back, and he completely fainted.

Section 47 Chapter 45 You Bastards, Let's Go Save the World!

Somewhere in the Acre Mountains.

"Boom!" The metal door disguised as a rock face slammed open. The elevator, accompanied by the blast wave of an explosion, shot into the air before crashing onto the grass, shattering into pieces.

Fortunately, the group were all well-trained elites. Their instinctive defensive actions meant they didn't suffer much damage.

However, as soon as they got up from the ground, the earth not far away collapsed and sank in large sections, with even flying debris shooting out in all directions.

The Hive! It's over!

Breathing the air on the surface again felt especially precious to them.

Because many people had already been buried in the tomb that was The Hive, and they would never have the chance to see the sun rise tomorrow.

"Cough... cough..." As if stimulated by the outside world, Kevin, who had been unconscious, quietly woke up. His mind was still groggy, and needle-like pain surged in waves.

At the same time, the satellite phones carried by the group rang urgently.

Kevin refused his teammates' request to rest and immediately answered the call.

Mayor Warren couldn't possibly know the exact time the rescue team escaped The Hive. If they received a call as soon as they got out, there was likely only one answer.

Someone in Raccoon City had been continuously calling this mixed unit. This meant...

The situation in the city was not optimistic!

"Did you bring it back? 137 people have already mutated in the quarantine zone. Although they were all safely eliminated by snipers, there are still at least 5,000 patients in serious condition lying in the hospital!"

"I can't just kill them all! We're about to collapse here!"

The moment the call connected, Mayor Warren, overwhelmed with exasperation, impatiently inquired about the antidote, not even bothering with pleasantries to ask if they were safe.

"We have the antidote. We'll head to the city center immediately to release it. Hold the line!"

Upon hearing this, Mayor Warren slumped back in his chair, relieved. Just as he was about to rub his temples to ease his mental fatigue, a guard's report came from outside.

"Your Honor, there are 28 more infected individuals who have shown symptoms in the East District. Do you authorize their elimination?"

Mayor Warren nodded painfully: "Authorize!"

Before the antidote arrived, the East District absolutely could not be in chaos. He would bear any burden.

Hopefully, it's not too late... Warren clasped his hands together, praying devoutly to God.

Meanwhile, after throwing the satellite phone to Jill, Kevin asked the others about the time and other circumstances.

"What time is it? How long will it take for the military helicopters outside the city to arrive?"

"7:30 PM. We have 30 minutes left..." Jill answered first.

"If we take a helicopter, it's 15 minutes from the military base to here, and then another 30 minutes to the city center, so round trip would be at least 45 minutes..."

Leon, who had ridden in helicopters with US soldiers before, recalled their casual conversation and stepped forward to provide the answer.

In another 30 minutes, Raccoon City would be overrun by T-Virus Infected. The first wave of mutations would hit, and at least tens of thousands of people would be sent to meet their maker.

What's more, in the ensuing chaos, it was highly uncertain whether these peacekeeping forces could even control the spread of the infection.

45 minutes... what a tough spot... That damn Pursuer, why did it have to attack a helicopter for no reason!

Kevin felt a headache coming on, but in a flash, he looked around at the surrounding Acre Mountains, stroked his chin, and held up the antidote.

"If I smash the antidote here, can it cover all of Raccoon City in about 30 minutes?"

Ada shook her head slightly, dismissing the commander's plan.

"It's hard to say. The mountains and jungle around here would block it, making diffusion difficult. Plus, the airflow isn't good, so the results are unpredictable..."

At this moment, Leon glanced at the three captives on the ground and weakly raised his hand.

"This Wolfpack squad managed to infiltrate the complex terrain of the Acre Mountains without a sound, and they weren't harassed by the Pursuer earlier. There should be a helicopter waiting nearby..."

Kevin slapped Leon on the shoulder, joy evident in his eyes. He had almost forgotten about these people...

Before, Dr. Isaacs was incapacitated, and The Hive was about to self-destruct.

Not only did the team members rescue Kevin and Alice, but in order to obtain the activation code for the elevator, they also brought along the surviving members of the Wolfpack squad.

"Where's the helicopter? Take us there!"

Leon still retained a good deal of his reasonable demeanor. He responded to Wolf Mom Ruper's question calmly.

But this only earned him a cold snort from Wolf Mom. While her team members hadn't died directly at the hands of Kevin and the others, they were absolutely linked to a certain conniving bastard.

Kevin placed a hand on Leon's shoulder and slowly stood up. His signature sly smile made the rookie cop inwardly mourn for the defiant captive before him.

"Tsk tsk, Carena Lespruss, former French special forces. After joining Umbrella, you single-handedly formed the Wolfpack squad. Quite an impressive resume..."

"I heard you accidentally killed your abusive husband for the sake of your daughter. You must love her very much, right?"

"Did you think that under Umbrella's protection, we wouldn't be able to find your child?"

"If news of your capture and the leak of information reaches Umbrella's higher-ups, guess which experiment table your daughter will end up on?"

The fierce mother wolf couldn't help but bare her teeth when she first heard her real name and experiences revealed.

But the malicious trap set by this bastard, targeting her daughter, made Wolf Mom's expression crumble as if her spine had been removed.

"[Grim Reaper]Hank, [Four Eyes]Kyoko Yamaya? It seems I don't need to introduce you two grandly?"

"Let's go, you bastards, and help me save the world."

The remaining three members of the Wolfpack tactical squad felt a chill run down their spines facing the smiling devil before them.

As mercenaries, the exposure of their information meant imminent death.

These people, they couldn't afford to offend...

Three minutes later, everyone safely boarded a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter parked in a mountain hollow. Barry, who had previously served in the US Air Force, naturally took the pilot's seat.

"There's about 25 minutes left. We've wasted too much time; I'm afraid we won't make it before the first wave of large-scale T-Virus mutations..."

Jill closed her eyes in pain. Faced with this time constraint, they were helpless.

"Don't worry, I've thought of a better plan."

Kevin patted Jill's shoulder in comfort, then took a coffee candy from his pocket and popped it into his mouth to chew and stay alert.

"Barry, head directly to the military base outside Raccoon City. At the same time, have Raccoon City urgently send a batch of silver iodide shells within 15 minutes!"

Years of trust made Barry immediately accept the order and act.

Amidst the roar of the propellers, Ada was the first to grasp the commander's intention, her eyes shining with brilliance.

"Extensive artificial rainfall at the military base?! What a great idea!"

The rest of them marveled at this. Raccoon City was located at a lower elevation and backed by the Acre Mountains, making its climate relatively humid, which would easily create conditions for artificial rainfall.

Moreover, even if large-scale precipitation didn't occur, the strong winds before a thunderstorm could accelerate the spread of the antidote.

Then, they would mix the antidote with the silver iodide shells and use the ground troops' anti-aircraft guns to bombard the clouds above Raccoon City, eliminating the crisis before it erupted!

"Don't call me... tired... Let me lean on something, I need to nap..."

Even after swallowing half a bottle of coffee candy, Kevin couldn't resist the signal of drowsiness from his brain. He drowsily leaned to the side and fell asleep.

Ada watched the female police officer who caught the commander's upper body a step before her, a playful smile on her lips.

A blush appeared on Jill's face, and then she gritted her teeth, gently resting the commander's head on her lap.

With steady breaths, the Black Hawk helicopter roared towards the military base.

Meanwhile, a black figure emerged from a cabin in the woods, speaking with a tone of pity and mockery.

"If you're not even worthy of being human, then what's the purpose of your evolution, Doctor..."

Section 48: Chapter Forty-Six: The Asura Field of the Mother Tyrants

"Cannibal demons appear in Raccoon City, the culprit is Umbrella Corporation!"

"Last night, a huge tremor was felt in the Arklay Mountains. According to experts, it was caused by the collapse of an underground Umbrella Corporation laboratory..."

"Thousands of stray cats and dogs in the city were innocently detained by the Raccoon City Police Department, a move that has drawn strong protests from animal protection organizations..."

"Mayor Warren ordered the shooting of Raccoon City residents. The victims' families have filed lawsuits, and Mayor Warren will be held accountable..."

Kevin put down the newspaper and leaned back on the pillow, enjoying the gentle breeze of the morning after the rain. He was no longer interested in the subsequent struggles in Raccoon City.

Although the crisis had been averted, Mayor Warren, who was now confronting Umbrella Corporation head-on, was likely in for a difficult time. After all, his opponent was a massive multinational corporation.

A centipede dies but its sinews remain.

Even with the evidence Kevin and others had obtained, dismantling Umbrella completely would be extremely difficult.

However, judging by the fact that there was no nuclear bombardment last night, this cunning Mayor Warren was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

Moreover, seeing the tip of the iceberg, as evidenced by the newspaper headlines, Mayor Warren had already gained a general control over public opinion, at least enough to stand on solid ground.

From now on, he would just watch the show...

As for fanning the flames, Kevin didn't even need to worry. A large number of "conscientious professionals" would emerge to take sides and cause trouble for Umbrella Corporation.

After all, Umbrella Corporation had monopolized the vast profits of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries for too long, and their methods had been rather unsightly.

"The apples this season taste great. Let me peel one for you..."
