"What if we refuse?" Albert·Wesker said. Ian's eyes turned to him. Umbrella Corporation's network security department is not a vegetarian.
During this brief conversation, they regained some control of the system, which is how Wesker was able to deactivate himself Silencing. Ian casually checked Morgana's operating system and confirmed that there was nothing to worry about. Umbrella's behavior was nothing more than a temporary bluff.
"A lot of things can happen," Ian replied calmly. "The United States government pays your company more than $300 billion every year for your weapons and research, not counting the secret agreements you signed with other countries such as Britain, France, Russia.
"Now that I have your data, I just need to sell it to these countries. After all, if they can do the research themselves, why should they pay you?" Ian laughed.
"And you are very Luck, I am in a good mood today. Otherwise, I only need to tap the keyboard a few times, and there will be problems with the heat and pressure regulation system of your boiler room. Then, boom! The whole building will explode." Ian's smile became a little cruel. "Don't you like the feeling of having to control everything manually?"
A female executive coughed to lighten the atmosphere. "There's no need to make it like this. We need to conduct comprehensive negotiations, but your plan is convincing enough."
"I'm glad to hear you say that," Ian nodded. "I'm waiting for your reply, but you only have two hours."
"Isn't this time a bit too short? Such an important decision--"
"Two hours is enough for you to make the antidote and prepare the transportation. Fortunately, I gave you time," Ian said and hung up the call rudely. However, as soon as the call ended, Ian cleared all traces on the computer and walked out of the hotel slowly. He changed cars and headed to the third hotel. This was a wise move, because less than an hour later, a group of Umbrella mercenaries appeared at the previous hotel.
Over the next two hours, Umbrella used all available resources to find Ian, including their contacts in various United States government departments. However, once the deadline expired, their system was compromised again, but this time Ian only left a five-minute countdown. With no other choice, Umbrella ordered the antidote to be sent to Raccoon City.
Ian was the first person to receive the notification from Reincarnation Watch. Although his antidote was to treat Zombie, it would also cause fatal damage to all Zombie. Therefore, the notification about the mission to kill Zombie was sent first.
Unfortunately, after he killed 1,000 Zombie, the watch stopped counting, so he only received a total of 1,550 points for all the Zombie killing missions. In addition, he also received an additional 2,300 points for killing 23 Licker.
Ian continued to evade capture, and on the next day, he received 10,000 points for rescuing Raccoon City. However, Umbrella still spared no effort to find him. Ian kept a low profile and hid until the expiration of three days, then a white light enveloped him and he disappeared from the world.
When he opened his eyes, Ian found himself in a white room, with members of his team - including William - right next to him. However, there was one more person - the reporter, Terry Morales. From the body language, he could see that she was very close to William. Ian thought of something, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
Everyone looked at William, who still remained calm and calm. However, before anyone could speak, a loud voice echoed in the empty room:
[You have passed the entry mission. Welcome, soldiers, to the Samsara Hall.]
This voice inherently carries a sense of oppression that makes everyone feel small and powerless. The strange thing is that it seems to be revealed inadvertently; it is not that this voice is deliberately exerting pressure, but its power is so great compared to mortals that they can't help but feel this way at the soul level.
'I haven't felt this way for a long time,' Ian thought to himself, and he felt his soul tremble.
[Does anyone need treatment? Since this is your first time, there is no need to spend points.]
"We need treatment," said the pale William.
[You need to pay 10 points for your companion]
"No problem," William said, looking at Terry with loving eyes, which made her face blush instantly. A ray of white light fell on them, and their faces returned to normal.
[Reincarnators 3G699376565, you have achieved outstanding achievements by completing the perfect task. Are you willing to announce your great achievements to the entire Reincarnation Wall?]
Ian pondered. Among the Samsara Hall, reputation is a very important part, especially for those who are more powerful Reincarnators. However, he does not want to reveal his information yet, although it will not take long for everyone to know. "Can I use a code name?"
[Only Reincarnators who reach Lieutenant Rank can get a code name, but in view of your special situation, we can make an exception for you.]
"Very good. I'm going to use the name 'Lord of Destruction'."
[Congratulations to Lord of Destruction for completing the one-star perfect mission.]
These words echoed throughout the Samsara Hall, shocking all members, from the weakest member to the strongest team - everyone knew it. At first, no one took it seriously because they thought it might be a top team using their overwhelming strength to gain points in low-level areas.
However, when Reincarnators discovered that they had no idea who "Lord of Destruction" was, people began to piece together clues and speculated that a new person might be on the scene. Many intelligence dealers immediately began to dig deeper, trying to find out Lord of Destruction.
[Now that the mission is over, you may enter private rooms or return to Earth. Here are the rules.]
A white light enveloped everyone and sent basic information about the Samsara Hall to everyone. Ian resisted showing any emotion because he was very disgusted that this hall could directly enter his brain, maybe even his soul. However, this is one of the risks that must be taken to participate in this mission.
Ian slowly checked the watch he had just updated:
Name: Ian·Bones
Reincarnation code: Lord of Destruction
Reincarnation ID:36699376565
Rank: Soldier
Level: Level 0 (sub-healthy mortal)
Designated area: Britain
Team: None
Mission: None (next mission is 1 week later Earth time)
Points:13900
Ian looked at his status and everything seemed normal, except for the designated area column. First of all, he was born in South Africa. Although he spent most of his time in Britain, it was not his designated area. Secondly, he didn't understand why everyone was forcibly separated in the first place.
Ian shook his head, and then focused his attention on the team. "Congratulations," Nate was the first to speak.
"Thank you," Ian responded casually. He originally wanted to bribe these people to keep his identity secret, but he realized that it was pointless. There was no way to restrain them. Well, actually - he could buy a magic contract from the reincarnation list. However, the things he could buy with points were cheap at the moment, which meant that others could buy better means to remove any restrictions imposed by Ian.
"Don't worry. We'll keep your identity confidential," Booth said.
"That's right," Nate agreed.
"No, I know that some of you will definitely betray this information, but that doesn't matter," Ian said calmly, his eyes never leaving William.
"I just like people who know current affairs. This way the game will be more interesting," William laughed.
Ian ignored him and turned to Dr. Frey. "Do you want to add me as a friend?" Reincarnation Watch allowed communication between Reincarnators.
"I'd love to."
"Very good," Ian nodded. She is the only person in this team that he really cares about. He has read the papers she published, and she is a very smart person - although limited by the era she lives in. If she becomes a Bloodline Wizard, she will be included in his list of recruiting talents for the Empire. Nate and William are the kind of people who will thrive in the Samsara Hall, but Ian knows that they will never be able to keep up with their own growth rate.
As for Booth, well, he's a waste. It's obvious that he has performed at least 2 or 3 missions, but he barely reached level 1. If nothing else happens, he will die in the next few missions. So, after getting Eve's number, Ian teleported to his private room.
