"At this point, it's actually not too bad."
"A Rank B Enhancement without any Gene Lock, all things considered, is still a mid-to-high First Stage transcendent combatant. It's a fairly even match against the Alien Queen. A Reincarnator only needs to break through a little and become more proficient with their enhancement to win."
"If they could unlock the First Stage Gene Lock and pair it with a Rank B Enhancement, they'd absolutely crush the Alien Queen."
"But because Zheng Zha picked random fucking enhancements, the power gained from his Rank B Side-Story was so low it could be ignored. He was only a tiny bit stronger than an ordinary person."
"In other words, he was using strength equivalent to a Tier 1 Blank to challenge the Alien Queen above his level."
"Fighting a monster with Rank B Side-Story difficulty while only getting paid a Rank D salary was truly absurd."
"In Original Infinite, Zheng Zha had earned his status as a veteran prisoner in the Main God Space entirely through his own ability!"
Uchiha Gen shook his head once again at Zheng Zha's earth-shattering wisdom, then began considering the circumstances of this mission.
"This time, we're facing the same situation. The rewards were set according to the standard of having Zhang Jie, a Tier 4 Transcendent combatant. The monsters should have been calibrated according to the Central Continent Team's overall strength at the end of Resident Evil."
"That means the monsters' difficulty was set based on one Chunin plus a Rank A Enhancement for me, two Rank B Enhancements for Zheng Zha, and a Rank C Enhancement for Zhan Lan."
"In the Main God's eyes, since I haven't unlocked a Gene Lock, I can only use ten percent of my Rank A Enhancement's power. Including the Chunin-level strength I already displayed in the Resident Evil World, I should count as an early-to-mid Second Stage transcendent combatant."
"Zheng Zha has two Rank B Enhancements. Even if he can't bring out much of their power, he should still count as a combatant close to the Second Stage. Zhan Lan is support, so her combat power can be directly ignored."
"The difficulty of this scenario should be raised by roughly one tier above that baseline, forcing everyone in the Central Continent Team apart from Zhang Jie to unlock their Gene Locks."
Having reached this point in his analysis, Uchiha Gen prepared to verify whether his reasoning was correct.
He spoke and instructed Zhan Lan, who had also risen to her feet, "Zhan Lan, scan the surroundings and gather intelligence."
Zhan Lan nodded. "Yes, Captain."
Use titles while working.
Big Lanlan did not change that just because of her intimate relationship with Uchiha Gen.
As she spoke, Zhan Lan activated Mental Scan and used Mind Link to synchronize everything she saw through the scan into the minds of the Central Continent Team.
At that moment, Uchiha Gen could clearly see that they were currently aboard a gigantic spaceship.
Judging from the engine reactor operating at full capacity, the ship was moving at high speed.
However, with no point of reference and nothing but endless, deep space around them, it was impossible to determine exactly how fast the spaceship was traveling.
Inside the ship, there was a massive Alien Queen, along with more than a hundred Xenomorphs of various other types.
These Xenomorphs were spread throughout the ship. They had just finished a massacre and were carrying corpses and flesh back to the nest as food for the Alien Queen.
Although the images shown by Mental Scan were bloody and horrifying, the Central Continent Team had long since transformed through real combat and grueling training. The scene before them did not move them.
"Why are there so many Xenomorphs? There are actually more than a hundred of all kinds!"
"I watched the movie Alien before. I clearly remember there being only one Xenomorph in the film!"
Zhan Lan said in surprise.
Not long ago, when the Main God announced that their second Horror movie was Alien, Zhan Lan had breathed a sigh of relief, thinking this Horror movie would end quickly.
They only had to kill one Xenomorph. With the Central Continent Team's current strength, even if she, the weakest member, took action, it would be effortless.
Soon, she would be able to return and have a sweet romance with her Captain little brother.
Yet in the blink of an eye, the Main God gave them a surprise.
"The Main God changed the difficulty. This Horror movie has fifteen people. I once heard the Central Continent Team's veterans say that the more Reincarnators there are in a Horror movie, the higher the difficulty. Missions at the fifteen-person level generally don't appear in science-fiction films."
"Instead, they're usually arranged in supernatural ghost films or bizarre, inexplicable movies."
"But since this difficulty has appeared, it means the Main God has drastically altered Alien's plot. Any kind of monster or strange plot development could appear. A mission at this difficulty could easily wipe out the entire team."
At this moment, Zhang Jie fulfilled his duties as a Half-Guide, explaining the situation in a grave tone.
"These Xenomorphs don't seem that strong. Judging by the intensity of their presence, they're only a little stronger than Lickers, and weaker than a Tyrant."
"Don't be fooled by the hundred-plus Xenomorphs. With our combat strength, we should be able to kill them easily."
"Even the Alien Queen, the one with the strongest presence, feels about as strong as Wesker. With my current strength, I can kill her easily."
Zheng Zha, however, looked relaxed and felt no pressure.
Although he had fought Wesker miserably while Score Grinding in Resident Evil and had nearly been beaten to death, he had grown much stronger since then.
He now had a Rank B Telekinesis ability. Compared to before, both his Chakra reserves and taijutsu had improved greatly.
On top of that, his equipment had been upgraded. His overall strength was already nothing like before.
Even if there were only around a hundred Xenomorphs aboard this ship, he was confident that he could kill them all by himself even if there were nine or ten times as many.
It would merely take some time.
Surviving in the Main God Space doesn't seem that hard after all.
The moment this inflated thought arose in Zheng Zha's mind, before he could deliver his victory speech ahead of time, Uchiha Gen interrupted him.
"Zhan Lan, focus the Mental Scan on the Ship Main Control Room."
Uchiha Gen had not participated in their discussion. He had been carefully analyzing the information revealed by Mental Scan.
Now, he issued an order.
Zhan Lan did as instructed, shifting the main view of Mental Scan to the Ship Main Control Room.
Then, everyone saw the following information on the main computer screen.
'The ship is expected to arrive at Planet Z233 in 12 minutes and 32 seconds for resupply.'
Besides the text, there was also a star map.
The map showed an azure planet with a considerable amount of land, covered in dense vegetation.
Clearly, Planet Z233 was a Garden Planet with an excellent natural environment, abundant resources, and a large human population!
