Serum and Bones

Seeing this.

Sui Bian gripped the mouse with its physical trackball in his right hand, maneuvering the cursor to double-click the red triangle.

After the double-click, the desktop remained unchanged, but a stiff, cold female voice emanated from the speakers:

"Hello, Mr. Sui."

Upon hearing this.

Sui Bian narrowed his eyes, staring at the screen. He pondered for a moment before asking, "I want to know your and the White Queen's primary responsibilities, and what you are capable of."

"My duty is to manage and protect all of Umbrella's assets, with my core located at the Arklay Laboratory beneath the Raccoon City mansion.

I can conduct surveillance, wiretapping, and hacking across the network. However, as the military networks of major military and political powers are isolated, I am currently unable to infiltrate them.

Should an emergency occur at a company facility that the company's top brass fails to detect immediately, I have the authority to mobilize armed forces, including the UBCS, company security personnel, and the USS.

The White Queen's duty is to ensure the profitability of all company divisions, with her core located at the underground laboratory of the Paris headquarters.

She can utilize the network to gather intelligence and data to formulate the optimal profit strategies for the company.

If the company requires it, we will cooperate to attempt to dismantle rival corporations from multiple angles.

Only the board of directors and a few veteran employees within the company are aware of my and the White Queen's existence, but from now on, both she and I will take orders solely from you, Mr. Sui."

Oh? One handles the military, the other handles the economy—not bad.

After hearing the Red Queen's introduction, Sui Bian clearly understood the primary responsibilities and functions of these two AIs.

Suddenly, a wild idea flashed through his mind...

To become the ruler of Umbrella.

Whether in games or movies, Umbrella was a behemoth across every industry, possessing advanced technologies that even many governments lacked.

In the games, after the Raccoon City incident, Umbrella's stock price plummeted, its reputation was ruined, and it suffered comprehensive blockades and suppression from the U.S. government and numerous corporations.

Coupled with the death of the last founder, the giant Umbrella finally collapsed.

Organizations and companies that were originally insignificant, and even some small nations, relied on the massive leak of talent and technology to "upgrade their gear," subsequently becoming leaders in various fields.

Some bosses in the later stages of the games boasted of reviving or surpassing Umbrella, much like the sentiment in Romance of the Three Kingdoms—once Lu Bu died, everyone claimed to have the courage of Lu Bu.

Mastering the zenith of Umbrella meant money, technology, and private armies; it also meant having the strength to deal with anomalous phenomena around the world.

With the loyalty of the Red and White Queens and the assistance of the system, this inspired Sui Bian to preserve Umbrella and seize it for himself.

With his goal set, he now needed to refine the steps.

First, complete the remaining two draws to understand the system's operational mechanism, and second, prevent the annihilation of Raccoon City.

After clearing his thoughts, Sui Bian said calmly to the system in his mind: System, I will perform two draws.

[Received. Conducting the second draw...

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Super Soldier Serum from the TV series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.]

As soon as the system's voice faded, a disposable syringe with a protective casing appeared out of thin air on the right side of his mousepad.

Through the transparent glass, one could clearly see the deep blue liquid inside—this was indeed the Super Soldier Serum the system spoke of.

"Oh?" Sui Bian sighed softly.

Sui Bian had skimmed through The Falcon and the Winter Soldier a few months ago and had forgotten most of the plot.

However, he remembered one thing: the serum in this series had almost no adverse reactions, unlike the severe side effects seen in Captain America: The First Avenger or The Incredible Hulk.

Just as Sui Bian was lost in thought while staring at the serum, the system's cold voice rang out in his mind once again.

[Conducting the third draw...

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Exoskeleton Technology from Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.]

As the system finished speaking, a black USB flash drive appeared out of thin air on the desk to the right of the mousepad.

Oh? Not bad! Sui Bian couldn't help but exclaim, continuing to address the system: Explain your functions.

[The primary duty of this system is to assist the host in surviving in this world, and it will issue tasks periodically.

If the host completes them within the time limit, you will receive a draw opportunity and corresponding points.

If a task fails, this system will not impose any penalties.

Points are calculated based on task difficulty, completion rate, and other factors.

The host can use points in the system store to redeem weapons, equipment, or technology.

The store has a total of eight slots, which refresh randomly every sixty days. Of course, the host can choose to refresh manually, which costs 100 points each time.

As for how to open the store, the host simply needs to think about it in your mind.]

"Hmm..." After listening to the system's self-introduction, Sui Bian didn't know how to react.

Tasks.

Draws.

Points.

Store.

Although this system lacked any emotion, it was remarkably efficient when it came to handling tasks and providing answers.

Sui Bian entered the so-called store by chanting in his mind, and in an instant, an interface resembling a holographic projection materialized before his eyes.

It was a grid with two rows and four columns, totaling eight slots.

Each slot displayed a color thumbnail of an item along with the number of points required to redeem it.

However, when Sui Bian caught sight of the items in the grid, he felt as though his luck had finally run out.

They were all useless trinkets, such as the Dragon Lore AWP from CS:GO or the M4A1 Thor from CrossFire.

Weapon skins and melee weapons from real-life games?

Hiss...

This was a bit underwhelming.

The only item worthy of Sui Bian's attention was the MA5B Assault Rifle from the Halo series, which cost 300 points to redeem.

Furthermore, this redemption didn't just provide a single rifle; it also included the detailed blueprints for that model.

If he were to equip Umbrella's elite USS with MA5B rifles and mechanical exoskeletons, wouldn't they be able to easily combat all sorts of bio-organic weapons?

If he also gave a set to Leon and Chris, wouldn't they instantly become unstoppable?
