Speedrunning Resident Evil—I'm Done Grinding

As Zhang Jie explained the rules of the Main God Space, the train car gradually began to slow down.

Resident Evil 1 was about to officially begin.

Uchiha Gen had watched the Resident Evil movie in his previous life.

It was about a biological virus leak in the Hive laboratory beneath Umbrella Corporation, prompting them to send a squad of mercenaries to investigate. They encountered countless dangers, battled Zombies, Lickers, and other monsters, and in the end, the protagonists narrowly escaped death.

This time, Reincarnators like them would also become part of the story.

At that moment, the previously silent Uchiha Gen spoke up and asked Zhang Jie:

"If I understand correctly, the Main God arranged for us to follow this black man named Matthew Addison into the laboratory because it wants us to experience danger."

"And face attacks from monsters like Zombies and Lickers?"

Although Uchiha Gen had not concealed the fact that he came from the Naruto World, there was no need to tell anyone that he was also a transmigrator.

Keeping firmly in mind his identity as a Naruto World native who had never seen Resident Evil, he summarized the information from the conversations between Zhang Jie, Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan, and the others before raising his question.

Zhang Jie glanced at Uchiha Gen and answered, "You understand correctly. All the monsters in this Resident Evil scenario carry infectious viruses, so you must be careful when facing Zombies and Lickers. Don't get hurt."

"Otherwise, once you're infected, you'll turn into a mindless Zombie that only knows how to feed."

He then briefly explained the plot progression of Resident Evil to Uchiha Gen.

Uchiha Gen nodded. "I see. Thanks for the warning."

Zhang Jie had just been about to continue lecturing him, to stuff the principle of not casually changing the plot into Uchiha Gen's head.

For example, Umbrella Corporation had powerful Firearms and all kinds of terrifying heavy artillery.

It also possessed Nuclear Weapons with destructive power far beyond that of the Third Hokage, enough to destroy heaven and earth—something a Chunin could never resist.

But unfortunately, the Horror movie plot had already begun, and he had no chance to say another word.

By then, the train had come to a complete stop.

More than a dozen mercenaries stepped out of the train car with guns in hand and cautiously approached the entrance to the Hive.

At the same time, Uchiha Gen made his move.

"Genjutsu: Hell Viewing Technique!"

Uchiha Gen rapidly formed hand seals, casting a D-rank genjutsu that enveloped the nearest black mercenary captain, Matthew Addison.

The effect of the Hell Viewing Technique was simple: it made someone see what they feared most in their heart for an instant.

In that instant, the black mercenary captain, whose expression had been resolute as he held his gun and guarded against possible danger, showed extreme terror.

He saw the horrifying scene of his mission failing and his entire family being executed by Umbrella Corporation's higher-ups.

"No!"

A shrill scream echoed across the platform at the Hive entrance, and his entire body fell uncontrollably to the ground.

Hearing the scream, the mercenaries who had been cautiously approaching the Hive entrance instinctively turned their gazes and gun barrels toward their black captain.

It was at that moment that Zheng Zha saw Uchiha Gen, standing beside him, blur in an instant.

Then came a series of dense impacts of flesh against flesh!

After casting the Hell Viewing Technique, Uchiha Gen had silently slipped behind a mercenary with his back turned and chopped at him with the edge of his hand.

Thud!

Zheng Zha instinctively turned toward the sound and saw three fully armed mercenaries rolling their eyes back as their bodies went limp and collapsed to the ground.

Uchiha Gen, who had been standing beside him moments ago, now moved like lightning, striking the back of a fourth mercenary's neck with the handle of his Kunai.

Only then did Zheng Zha finally realize what was happening.

Uchiha Gen, whom he had taken for a cosplay enthusiast, was actually a real ninja—someone who wielded extraordinary power!

"Over there!"

When Uchiha Gen took down the seventh mercenary, the remaining men finally discovered the source of the danger.

The mercenaries, who worked together seamlessly, did not need words. Driven by fear, they shouted at the top of their lungs.

Their gun barrels swung around at once, aiming at Uchiha Gen, who had just knocked down another mercenary.

Rat-a-tat-tat!

A dense burst of gunfire, like exploding beans, instantly rang out across the entire platform.

A hail of bullets shot from the barrels, hurtling toward Uchiha Gen at three times the speed of sound.

We're done for!

The battle had erupted in the blink of an eye, and the Reincarnators now understood what had happened.

One of their teammates had attacked the mercenaries but failed to take them all out immediately. Now countless gun barrels were trained on him, and he was about to be riddled with bullets.

They would be next.

Yet the next scene left everyone dumbfounded.

Though countless gun barrels were aimed at him, Uchiha Gen's expression did not change in the slightest.

In his eyes, the bullets moved as slowly as snails.

Body Flicker Technique!

Uchiha Gen formed hand seals and appeared behind the remaining mercenaries as though he had shifted through space.

His instantaneous high-speed movement broke the sound barrier, sending a violent gust sweeping through the Hive entrance and kicking up dust.

Then Shuriken flew from Uchiha Gen's hands, striking the guns that were spewing bullets.

The gunfire instantly fell silent.

With a few punches and kicks, Uchiha Gen knocked out every remaining mercenary.

"What are you standing around for? Tie them up."

"Are you waiting for them to wake up and take you down into the Hive to face Zombies?"

Uchiha Gen let out a long breath, then spoke to Zhang Jie, Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan, and the others, who were staring at him in stunned silence.

Zheng Zha suddenly understood.

That was right. Although the Main God required them to follow the mercenary captain Matthew Addison down into the Hive,

as long as they controlled the black mercenary captain, they would not need to go down into the Hive. They could simply stay at this safe entrance and wait for the Horror movie to end.

This was wonderful!

"Coming!"

Zheng Zha eagerly answered and hurried forward to help.

He took specially made steel wire ropes from Uchiha Gen and tied up the mercenaries one by one.

On the other side, Zhang Jie removed handcuffs from the mercenaries and cuffed everyone, including Alice.

"Why are there only three of you? Where are the other four?"

As he tied people up, Uchiha Gen curiously asked Zhan Lan, who was standing beside him without knowing how to help.

During the fight, he had not had the energy to pay attention to targets that posed no threat.

"They ran."

"The gunfire scared them out of their wits."

Before Zhan Lan could answer, Zhang Jie turned toward the train and spoke coldly. "Four eliminated."
