After dealing with Spence, James and the others were fully armed. Even Matt and Alice each had two handguns and several magazines.

"Ready? You guys go ahead and plant these explosives on the incubation tanks first, so these Lickers don't get out," Hao Shuai said, pulling out a pile of explosives and addressing James and the others.

After everyone had set the explosives and detonators, Hao Shuai led the way, with James and the others maintaining their combat formation behind him. They headed towards the experimental area, planning to retrace their steps.

When they reached the entrance to the experimental area, JD habitually stepped forward to open the door. Hao Shuai yanked him back. "Are you trying to die? Did you forget where we are to just open the door like that!" Hao Shuai berated him.

JD realized he had been a bit reckless and could only give Hao Shuai an awkward smile before returning to the group.

Hao Shuai had James and the others prepare themselves and then directly used his Psychic Power to pull the door open. The moment the door opened, countless zombies surged out from behind it, rushing towards them.

Seeing this, JD's face turned completely pale. He looked at Hao Shuai gratefully.

"Open fire!"

With a 'bang', the foremost zombie's head was directly blown off by Hao Shuai's shot.

Bang! Bang! Bang! ...

The mercenaries reacted quickly, opening fire one after another. However, they instinctively shot at the zombies' bodies.

Hao Shuai shouted, "Are you all idiots? I just told you the zombies' weakness. Aim for the head, and conserve your bullets."

Hao Shuai knew that even if they got out of The Hive, they would still face pursuit and interception from Umbrella Corporation, so he reminded them to save their ammunition.

After their initial panic, the mercenaries reacted to Hao Shuai's shout and finally aimed their guns at the zombies' heads, firing fiercely.

Zombies fell one after another, but new ones kept rushing forward. When the last zombie was eliminated, a mountain of corpses had piled up at the entrance.

"You guys wait here. I'll go ahead and check the situation," Hao Shuai said to James and the others, before bypassing the corpse mountain, passing through the door, and entering the experimental area.

After searching the experimental area and confirming it was safe, Hao Shuai signaled for the others to enter.

When everyone entered the experimental area, they found that there were no more zombies left. The group quickly passed through the experimental area, arrived at the stairs they had descended earlier, and proceeded upwards along the stairs.

Although there were zombies along the way, they were only a few scattered ones. Under everyone's fierce firepower, they caused no disturbance.

When everyone successfully retreated to the stairwell leading back to the train, Hao Shuai took out the detonator and set off the explosives in Restaurant B.

Boom! Boom! Boom! ...

A series of explosions echoed, and then everyone felt the entire Hive shaking.

The shaking lasted for less than a minute before it subsided. Hao Shuai thought that all those Lickers should be dead by now!

The group successfully reached the first-floor lobby and walked out onto the platform through the main entrance.

"Kaplan, you go start the train. Everyone else, stay alert," Hao Shuai ordered.

"Yes, sir."

After Kaplan started the train and everyone boarded, the train departed The Hive, speeding upwards.

Everyone slumped onto the floor. After being so tense for so long, even the battle-hardened mercenaries felt exhausted. Hao Shuai also let out a deep sigh, thinking they shouldn't be as unlucky as in the movie and encounter Lickers. Now their biggest enemy was Umbrella Corporation outside the villa.

Just as everyone thought they were safe, an urgent whistling sound came from above Hao Shuai's head.

Pfft!

A Licker's tongue! It shot directly towards Hao Shuai.

At the critical moment, Hao Shuai dodged it with a roll, then turned to look at the ceiling. A large hole had been broken in the ceiling at some point, and a Licker, an evolved one at that, was crawling on the roof.

At this moment, Hao Shuai remembered Spence, who had been killed in Restaurant B. He figured this Licker must have evolved through his corpse!

Damn it!

No wonder so many people weren't attacked, and it just had to attack me. Spence wants revenge on me even after death! I don't know if it's my good luck or your bad luck!

Seeing that Hao Shuai had dodged the sneak attack, the Licker shot out its tongue again.

James and the others also reacted, aiming their guns at the Licker, but it was useless.

In the end, Hao Shuai directly raised his hand, aimed at the Licker in front of him, and clenched his fist with force.

Pfft!

Instantly, the Licker turned into a pile of minced meat, and its tongue hung limply from the ceiling.

Seeing the Licker crushed into pieces by Hao Shuai, everyone relaxed.

When the train reached its starting point, James checked his watch. It was half an hour faster than the time they had set.

Upon returning to the villa, Hao Shuai got straight to the point. "I have safely brought you out of The Hive. Umbrella Corporation is likely preparing to apprehend you outside. You can either trust me and fight our way out together, and I'll find you a safe place! Or you can obediently be taken away by Umbrella Corporation, and who knows what the outcome will be."

After hearing Hao Shuai's words, James and the others peeked out from beside the window and saw that the outside was filled with heavily armed Umbrella personnel. They knew Hao Shuai wasn't lying to them, and they fell into deep thought.

Alice walked up to Hao Shuai, looking at him with a complex expression. She asked, "Can I trust you?"

Seeing Alice's expression, Hao Shuai knew she had fully recovered her memory and that his deception couldn't be hidden any longer.

Hao Shuai awkwardly touched his nose and said, "Trusting me is better than trusting Umbrella Corporation's integrity. You surely know what Umbrella Corporation does."

"Okay, I'll go with you!" Alice was also a decisive person.

Matt, who was already at odds with Umbrella Corporation, had no other choice but to go with Hao Shuai.

Now, only James and the mercenary team, who were gathered and discussing, remained.

After the group discussed for a while, James walked up to Hao Shuai and said, "We'll follow you!"

"Oh! You trust me that much?" Hao Shuai asked curiously.

"After all, you have no reason to harm us, and Umbrella Corporation is conducting such evil human experiments. We have an obligation to expose them," James replied.

"Alright, everyone rest a bit and resupply your ammunition. We'll charge out directly later." Hao Shuai took out more firearms and ammunition from his spatial storage.

Once everyone was ready, Hao Shuai led them to the floor-to-ceiling window that Rain and the others had kicked open. Outside the window was a forest, which was also a weak point in Umbrella Corporation's security.

Hao Shuai, before Umbrella Corporation could react, charged forward alone, taking down any interceptors with a single shot.

After breaking through the encirclement, Hao Shuai led the group for two blocks, finally entering a church.

"Okay, you're safe for now! I have to leave. We'll meet again. Here's some advice: leave Raccoon City as soon as possible!" After giving them a batch of ammunition, Hao Shuai bid them farewell.

"Will we meet again?" Looking at Alice, who blocked his path, Hao Shuai didn't know how to answer. Alice wasn't his type, so he didn't plan on taking her into his harem.

"Yes, take care!" Hao Shuai stepped forward and hugged Alice. He didn't know if he would ever come to the Resident Evil World again.

After saying goodbye to everyone, Hao Shuai went into a deserted alley. Although he had been using his Psychic Power to protect himself, he decided to be extra cautious. He discarded everything he was wearing, including his underwear, changed into new clothes, and then disappeared from the Resident Evil World.

In the villa of the Night Shift World

Hao Shuai's figure appeared in the living room. He then drove to St. Julianna Hospital for a thorough and comprehensive disinfection and check-up to ensure he hadn't brought back the T-virus. Otherwise, he might have to abandon the Night Shift World.

This was also why Hao Shuai didn't return directly to his real world; he was afraid of accidentally bringing the T-virus back.

After leaving the hospital, Hao Shuai returned directly to the villa. Lying on the sofa, he took out the Red Queen motherboard from his spatial storage, pondering where to find a computer expert to modify the Red Queen's settings.

He didn't dare to think about his real world, and he probably wouldn't find anyone there. After all, it was advanced AI from a movie, not the "artificial imbeciles" of the real world.

It seemed he had to go to worlds with advanced AI technology. For example, he could find Stark in the Marvel world. He could invent Jarvis, so he should be able to handle the Red Queen, but Hao Shuai wasn't sure if Stark would help him.

Dr. Alfred Lanning from "I, Robot" could also modify the Red Queen, but Hao Shuai estimated that the man would already be dead by the time he traveled there.

After thinking for a long time, Hao Shuai finally thought of someone who could help him with the Red Queen. Moreover, that world was also very valuable. Although the upper limit of its combat power was incredibly high, as long as he developed stealthily in the early stages and didn't take unnecessary risks, it should be safe.

Having confirmed his next target, Hao Shuai rested and relaxed in the Night Shift World while waiting for the Chaos Bead to link to the world. Finally, one morning a month later, Hao Shuai knew the link was successful, and his figure disappeared.
