The next day, the general meeting of shareholders of the umbrella company was held as scheduled, and many shareholders gathered together, and the focus of the entire meeting, in addition to Isaacs, was Chris, the new third largest shareholder, as for the original major shareholder, Alexia Marcus, but it was ignored by everyone intentionally or unintentionally.

And for Chris, the whole process of the conference is also quite boring, because the general things have actually been decided before the meeting starts, and the rest is just some details, all he has to do is sign the contract, and then watch the clone of Isaacs perform on stage.

That's right, although there is no difference on the surface, even with Chris's half-baked ghostly energy, it can be clearly distinguished that Isaacs at this time is very different from yesterday's one.

However, Chris did not take action, the big play has not started yet, he just needs to watch the play quietly for the time being.

12 noon, Umbrella Underground Research Center (Hive).

As the core secret research base of the umbrella company, the staff of the hive and the umbrella company have signed a secret agreement, living in this base all the year round, and the general meeting of the umbrella company on the ground seems to have nothing to do with them, and still does what they should do according to their inherent rhythm of life.

At this time, it was the lunch break, and more than 500 research and logistics personnel were eating and resting, and the security was extremely lax, and no one thought that someone would sneak into the base to steal, not to mention that this person was still a person with a lot of authority from the umbrella company.

This man is the husband of the husband and wife who guards the entrance and exit of the hive, Spencer Parks.

Although Spencer and Alice's marriage is fake, the long-term relationship does not prevent them from having a good impression of each other and living a real husband and wife life, so as a pillow person, he accidentally learned that Alice teamed up with Hive Researcher, Matt's sister, Lisa Addison, to steal the T-virus.

Spencer, who knew the inside story, scoffed at Alice's behavior, and in his opinion, Alice's stealing the virus and handing it over to the government for free was simply thankless.

However, it was also the idea of Alice and Lisa that inspired Spencer, that is, if he could get the highest scientific and technological achievement of the umbrella, the T-virus is extremely antidote, and find a suitable buyer, it would be enough to sell an unimaginable price, enough for him to live a luxurious life under the cup.

So Spencer was moved, and knowing all of Alice and Lisa's plans, he prepared to infiltrate the hive before Alice and steal the T-virus.

As a security guard at the entrance and exit of the hive, Spencer's authority is not low, and he even obtained the senior authority of Lisa Addison as a senior researcher from Alice.

On this day, when Alice was preparing to act, Spencer could find an interface to linger with Alice, and then while Alice fell asleep because of the exhaustion of love, Spencer took advantage of noon, the time when the hive's internal defense was the most lax, to infiltrate the hive and successfully obtained the T-virus.

However, Spencer, who thought he was sitting seamlessly, could not have imagined that his every move was actually under surveillance.

This watcher is the artificial intelligence created by Isaacs, the Red Queen.

As long as the Red Queen was willing, Spencer couldn't even enter the laboratory at all, but the Red Queen's owner, the real Dr. Isaacs, didn't let her stop Spencer, so the Red Queen could only watch Spencer get the virus, and even smashed a virus before leaving.

And it was the virus that Spencer smashed that gave the red queen a chance.

Although the Red Queen is an artificial intelligence created by Isaacs, the original intention of her creation is to protect humans, so her core program is also to protect humans.

But Isaacs' plan for Genesis ...... That is, by releasing the T-virus, artificially creating the end of the world, it is obviously against her core program, but she cannot directly disobey Isaacs's orders, and can only try to stop Isaacs's plan by looking for logical loopholes.

If Spencer just took the virus out of the hive, the red queen couldn't do anything with Spencer, because Isaacs's order couldn't stop the other party from stealing the virus, so the red queen could only let Spencer spread the virus in the outside world, but Spencer directly smashed a virus in the base, the situation was different, and the red queen took advantage of Isaacs's reaction before he could react, and immediately activated the final defense system of the hive in accordance with the Resident Evil plan set in the program, that is, the entire hive was completely locked, and at the same time completely killed the humans in the hive. And Spencer, who had just escaped to the exit of the hive, and Alice, who did not know what had happened and was taking a bath, were not spared, although there was no danger to their lives, but the special anesthetic was enough to make them sleep for four hours and forget everything that happened in the hive for a short time.

However, the Red Queen knew that her approach was of little use other than to delay the spread of the virus a little, because whether it was Isaacs or the executives of other umbrella companies, they all had the authority to restart the hive, and the virus would still spread at that time.

But there's only so much the Red Queen can do, she just hopes that during the time she locks down the hive, someone from the outside world will be able to discover Isaacs' plot and prevent the destruction of the world......

Isaacs, who has entered the deepest part of the hive, knows about the small actions of the red queen, but he does not stop it, as the red queen knows, there are not one or two people in the umbrella company who have the authority to restart the hive, so the restart of the hive is inevitable, and when the hive is restarted, the spread of the virus is not something that anyone can stop.

And people on the outside world don't know anything about what is happening inside the hive, and the IMF team led by Ethan is also the same.

As the minutes ticked by, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, and Matt and his sister Lisa had made an appointment.

Ethan's IMF team has been lurking in the grove for a long time, and as agents, they naturally can't really wait for the agreed time to arrive at the junction location, which is tantamount to handing over their lives to God, so they have arrived at the grove very early and have a clear understanding of the situation around the grove to prevent accidents.

However, the unexpected did happen......

"It's half an hour past the agreed time," Ethan looked at the time and asked Matt next to him, "Are you sure it's four?" ”

"Of course sure, something must have happened, no, I have to go in" didn't wait for the connector that his sister said, Matt was also anxious, but unlike Ethan, he was more worried about her sister's safety than the virus of the transaction.

"Wait another half an hour, it's really not good, we can only go in" Ethan gritted his teeth and said, no matter what, the task must be completed, even if that underground laboratory is Longtan Tiger's Den, he must break in.

Half an hour later, Ethan, who had lost his patience, asked Barton and Benji to stay outside to pick them up, while he and Matt prepared to go inside the bungalow to find out.

At this time, it was exactly five hours before the T virus leaked.
