Elsewhere, Uchiha Gen left the small room and made his way toward the Hive entrance.

This place had already been converted into a temporary operating room.

All the Hive survivors, including Alice, had been captured. Dozens of Umbrella Corporation scientific researchers in biohazard suits were busy transforming them into Biological Weapons.

Several squads of mercenaries stood guard nearby with guns in hand.

Other than the true Umbrella Corporation higher-ups lying beneath the Hive, no one knew that these self-important Umbrella elites were actually just clones meant to deceive others.

"Five mercenary squads, sixty men in total."

"Adding the researchers, there are a little over a hundred people."

Using the positions of their Chakra, Uchiha Gen quickly confirmed the enemy intelligence around him and began formulating a battle plan.

Then, he formed hand seals and used the Transformation Technique to become a researcher in a biohazard suit, silently appearing beside the outermost squad of mercenaries.

He called out to the squad leader, pretending that he had something to discuss.

But the instant he drew close, he erupted into action. Shuriken burst forth like scattered blossoms from a celestial maiden.

No screams rang out. In an instant, ten of the twelve mercenaries had their throats precisely slit by Shuriken.

Two Senbon shot from Uchiha Gen's mouth and struck the remaining two.

The gap between their neural reaction speeds was simply too great. Before Uchiha Gen, they were no different from unresisting bots.

His figure flickered. Almost instantly, he caught the collapsing mercenaries and laid their bodies on the ground, causing no further disturbance.

Then he repeated the process and eliminated the second squad of mercenaries.

But as he dealt with the third squad, the thick scent of blood spreading through the villa drew attention.

"Enemy attack!"

A shrill cry rang out. The remaining thirty-odd mercenaries panicked and instinctively gathered together.

"They're so cooperative. They even gathered on their own."

A cold smile appeared on Uchiha Gen's face.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

He quietly drew upon his Chakra, formed hand seals, and spat out a massive fireball.

"Over here."

Rat-a-tat-tat!

Some mercenaries spotted Uchiha Gen, raised their Assault Rifles, and unleashed streams of muzzle fire.

By then, Uchiha Gen had already completed the hand seals for his second ninjutsu.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

A fierce gale erupted from Uchiha Gen's mouth. Though cast later, it overtook the Great Fireball Technique.

Wind fed the flames.

In an instant, the Great Fireball Technique became a towering sea of fire, temperatures of several thousand degrees surging outward.

This Rank C wind-fire combined ninjutsu not only melted the bullets fired by the mercenaries, but turned the mercenaries themselves to ash in an instant.

After that, nothing stood in Uchiha Gen's way.

Like a tiger unleashed from its cage, he gripped a Kunai and charged at the remaining stragglers.

Before long, he had killed every last Umbrella researcher in a biohazard suit.

On the operating tables, Alice and the others were still on IV drips, unconscious.

In the room upstairs, Zheng Zha had now left his combat state. Looking at the wreckage scattered across the floor, he could not help vomiting.

Although he had fought Lickers before and had mentally prepared himself to take other lives in order to survive, when the moment truly came, Zheng Zha still felt sick from the bottom of his heart.

Beside him, Zhan Lan, who had watched the battle, did not look much better.

She had not only watched Zheng Zha's battle from beginning to end, but had also seen Uchiha Gen's entire battle downstairs through Mental Scan.

That usually gentle young man had slaughtered more than a hundred people with a cold, expressionless face.

He had not seemed to be killing members of his own kind. It had been more like slaughtering chickens and cattle, giving off an indifferent aura that inspired fear.

"All right, the battle is over."

"It's safe now."

However, that fear did not linger in Zhan Lan's heart for long.

Soon, Uchiha Gen's gentle voice broke the silence in the room.

When Uchiha Gen appeared before Zhan Lan again, his calm expression gave her an unexpected sense of reassurance.

That was right. He was her teammate.

And the people they had killed were merely the lackeys of the anti-human evil organization known as the Umbrella Corporation.

They were eliminating evil for the people. Just like killing Ryan, the chief culprit behind the creation of Resident Evil, it was no big deal.

"Alice's modification is complete, but she was given anesthetics. I already stopped the injection just now. With her immunity surpassing that of ordinary people, she should wake up in around half an hour."

Uchiha Gen explained the situation downstairs.

"There's an off-road vehicle downstairs."

"Captain, next we should leave this Hive Entrance Villa and take Alice out of Raccoon City."

"Before the Umbrella Corporation has time to react, our chances of getting out safely will be greater."

Zhan Lan spoke up, once again offering her suggestion.

Zheng Zha volunteered, "I can drive. Let's leave now. If I remember correctly, Raccoon City in the movie is only ten or twenty kilometers across, and the Hive we're in happens to be on the outskirts. At most, we should be able to complete the mission successfully in one or two hours."

"After that, we'll still have a day to rest, or find a way to spend money on some Firearms we need."

But Uchiha Gen shook his head and rejected the suggestion. "No. We're not doing the Main Mission. We're going straight to the bottom of the Hive."

Huh?

Question marks appeared over Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan's heads.

If they did not complete the Main Mission, would they not be erased for having negative points?

Two Rank C Side-Story Missions and Four Thousand Points were wealth that the entire Central Continent Team combined could not afford.

However, after several days of training and living together, Uchiha Gen had already established authority in their hearts.

Thus, neither of them immediately questioned him. They merely looked at Uchiha Gen with puzzled eyes, waiting for his explanation.

Unlike Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan, who had entered the Main God Space in 2007, Uchiha Gen came from 2025. He had watched the entire Resident Evil movie series and knew that the Umbrella Corporation's true higher-ups were lying beneath the Hive.

Kill them and end the Resident Evil movie series storyline. Setting aside any other rewards, he could at least obtain the Rank B Side-Story Mission and Five Thousand Reward Points awarded by the Main God for ending a Horror movie series.

However, while the Main God Space offered exchanges for information on various film and television works that surpassed the real-world year of 2007, their progress did not extend beyond 2009, coinciding exactly with the serialization period of Infinite Horror.

The Naruto manga had only a little over four hundred chapters, the Alien Movie Series only went up to the fourth film, and the Resident Evil movie series only had three films.

Theoretically, Uchiha Gen should not know the truth behind Resident Evil.

To present this information reasonably, Uchiha Gen began displaying the abilities of a Script-Level Intelligent Person.

Based on the outcome, he began inferring the cause of the events.
