I don't know if it's a connection between two people deeply infected with the virus, or if the original form of the Nemesis had communicated with Alice.

In this brief battle, a deadly crisis triggered a kind of intuition, allowing this woman, who hated Umbrella and even loathed bio- Monster, to confirm the original identity of the person before her.

It was Matt Addison, his companion when he was first taken in by Umbrella Security Force and entered the Hive Base. Infected by the virus, he was eventually taken in by Umbrella Corporation and transformed into the bio- Monster before him.

Alice, who had experienced the same ordeal, also realized that she hadn't left the Umbrella facility unscathed; she too had undergone unknown experimental modifications by the Umbrella Corporation. This was evident from her previous extraordinary athletic performance.

Now that the Nemesis's weapons had been destroyed, Alice simply rushed forward to engage in hand-to-hand combat, raining blows upon her opponent. He must have been unwilling to become such a mindless Monster. All she could do was help him find release.

However, unlike the situation in the movie where the two sides are evenly matched, and Alice even has the upper hand, the Nemesis with mutated limbs uses inhuman fighting methods to repeatedly strike the perfectly infected person of the virus from unexpected angles.

Alice's indomitable spirit and unwavering determination allowed her to rise again and again to confront the Nemesis head-on. The two were locked in a fierce battle, neither willing to back down.

Green Arrow Duck wasn't just watching from the sidelines. The arm severed from the Nemesis was different from the bio- Monster in the game and movie versions, who died upon separation from their original bodies.

Tentacles also reappeared on the severed surface, as if this severed arm was about to become an independent creature, coming back to life and causing trouble.

Is this guy some kind of starfish? The Green Arrow Duck, with three black lines appearing on its forehead, obediently put away the Adamantium knife on its wrist. If it were torn to pieces, and then asexually reproduced and multiplied ten thousand times, that would be disastrous.

Since the bullets were ineffective and the high-yield bombs were all used up, Green Arrow Duck had no choice but to resort to its long-forgotten attack function. Grabbing the severed arm by the palm, it reached for the section from which tentacles were growing with its other hand.

If an ordinary person had grabbed him like that, they'd probably be entangled by the tentacles covering their arm, and some terrifying things would have happened. But the armored gauntlets were naturally unaffected. It was only then that Green Arrow Duck noticed that the Nemesis not only had a high concentration of virus inside him, but also a parasite that controlled his nervous system. Could this be the NE-α Parasite that created the Pursuer in the video game? This would explain why Matt Addison's modifications to the Nemesis were different from Alice's —because they were indeed created from different things.

However, this parasite was only observed here; it wasn't found on the Licker. Furthermore, there's no indication that the parasite has separated from its host, so it doesn't pose a threat of large-scale transmission. Therefore, the focus at this stage should still be on the virus.

Having reached this conclusion, Green Arrow Duck unhesitatingly turned his electric shocks to maximum power and continuously output high-voltage current, charring the arm that had been chopped off from the Nemesis until it was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The entire arm was like charcoal, and it shattered into pieces with a single clap of his hands.

This means that the cells of the Nemesis still have a limit to their tolerance and can be violently destroyed. Even so, doing so almost burned out the electric shock head of the Duck Leopard armor—Duck Type, and the stored power dropped by a large increment.

Trying to electrocute the entire Nemesis using the same method is clearly impossible. Even exhausting the power of the Duck Leopard armor—Duck Type won't work. Fortunately, his initial plan wasn't to use electricity to deal with the Nemesis's main body. Electrocuting its severed arm was just to confirm that the guy could be killed.

Bullhead is online.

Bonnie is online.

Skyhawk is now online.

Ursa Major online.

Four consecutive messages alerted Green Arrow Duck that reinforcements had arrived. He then yelled at the woman fighting, "Alice, get out of the way! The artillery is firing!"

Making demands without giving reasons is treating people like lackeys; those who lack trust will only resent it. But if someone gives a reason and still dares to run away, Green Arrow Duck will give them a thumbs up at their grave.

Meanwhile, Green Arrow Duck activated its super-control over the other Mecha, temporarily taking over control. The Mecha systems instantly calculated the optimal firing times for different weapons based on the positions of all the Mecha. Alice, clearly not stubbornly refusing to leave despite being ordered to, and not wanting to test the power of the artillery fire on her own skin, didn't hesitate to kick the Nemesis, trying to use the momentum to escape.

However, her kick was entangled by the tentacle on the left arm of the Nemesis, and she couldn't break free for a moment. Alice was even pulled back, getting closer to the bio- Monster.

Green Arrow Duck hadn't given the order to fire yet, so there was no risk of killing Alice along with it. But since she wasn't leaving, it wouldn't be good for him to blow up this Monster created by the Umbrella Corporation.

The previously retracted Adamantium blade popped out again, and Green Arrow Duck, which wasn't even in the artillery barrage, charged forward using its Micro-hover System. It severed the tentacles wrapped around Alice's feet with a single strike, and simultaneously carried her away.

The calculated timing of the artillery fire was precisely the moment Green Arrow Duck successfully rescued the person, exploding simultaneously on Nemesis! Within the blast radius, Green Arrow Duck activated the Isu Shield the instant he made the rescue, blocking the remaining force of the artillery fire at the last second.

In reality, it was far less dangerous than outsiders perceived. The entire process was meticulously calculated by Super Brain, with room for contingencies.

However, Umbrella's Nemesis's idea of dealing with five high-tech Mecha single-handedly without any firearms is simply wishful thinking.

Alice, being carried away, naturally witnessed firsthand the scale of the "bombardment" the Duck Plushie had described. This wasn't just a simple, sweeping bombardment like in war movies; it was countless cannonballs exploding simultaneously in one place, making it far more terrifying.

Moreover, having witnessed it firsthand, I could better appreciate its power. Although I didn't know how the flames and blasts were kept at a certain distance and didn't hit me.

When the dust settled, the spot where the giant bio- Monster had once stood was now just a crater blooming in the asphalt. Aside from the tentacles wrapped around Alice's feet, a testament to the Nemesis's existence, the towering bio- Monster had left nothing behind. Green Arrow Duck ripped off the tentacle and tossed it into the air. Another smaller volley of fire blasted the remaining tentacle to smithereens, leaving not even ashes.

With this, the Umbrella Corporation's Nemesis Project came to a complete end.
