Chapter 50: An Inescapable Fate
Leon has a magical attribute in the future, that is, the vehicles he touched, whether it was a car or an airplane, as long as he touched it, most of them did not end well, known as the vehicle killer Li Sanguang.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. β
Ethan finally sat in the passenger seat, anyway, with his current strength, even if he had an accident, he couldn't hurt him, and the two women sat in the back.
The back seat of the police car was very uncomfortable, and his legs were almost stuck there, which was to limit the prisoner's movements, and Ethan would be very uncomfortable to sit there even if he wasn't a tall macho man like Logan.
So Serena and Claire very consciously left the co-pilot position to Ethan, and the two of them, who were much thinner, sat in the back.
It seemed like Claire was going to miss out on her 'initial loadout', but Ethan wouldn't let that happen, and as soon as he sat down, he rummaged around before finding the pistol and handing it to Claire in the back seat.
"Aren't you going to keep it?"
Ethan smiled at the young girl and nodded, then took out a Beretta from his inner bosom (which was actually the storage space) and signaled that he had a weapon.
"What the hell is going on here?"
Leon treats Ethan and Serena as locals, he has only just arrived here, and he has not even officially joined the company, so he has no idea about the situation.
"I don't know, but I just came here, and it turned out that there were zombie-like monsters everywhere. β
Ethan didn't want to make the situation too clear early, although Leon was naΓ―ve, but he was not a fool, he came up and said it to him, maybe the first thing this righteous rookie officer did was to arrest him.
Even if you want to tell the truth, you have to have a certain amount of trust in each other, and now they are still strangers.
"When I rode in, it was like I had met you on the road. β
Claire had always felt that these two people were familiar, and at this time she remembered that not long after she rode into Raccoon Town, there were two people standing on the side of the road, it was Ethan in front of her and Serena beside her.
"Yes, so we came here on purpose. β
Claire didn't know how the two men caught up with her on the motorcycle, but the other seemed to be kind? she didn't understand why she didn't stop her in the first place? But it wasn't good to think too badly for people, especially in such an environment full of monsters.
She is a smart girl, and even though she has many questions in her heart, she still expresses her gratitude at this time.
I don't know if it was because of Ethan's intervention, the car didn't happen in the end, but there was no way for them to move on.
"The whole street was blocked with all sorts of things, and we might have to find some paths to get through. β
Ethan struggled to recall the memories of Resident Evil in his mind, and he remembered that the official setting mentioned that the protagonists in the game had been walking through the paths, which was a bit troublesome to walk, but also avoided standing on the street and being overwhelmed by endless monsters.
Therefore, the official 'escape route' is to walk through various paths, which can minimize the possibility of encountering monsters.
"Are you familiar with this place?"
"I can only determine a general direction. β
Leon shook his head helplessly, and pointed into the distanceβthe direction of the police station, and the destination they were now heading to.
According to Leon, this kind of problem has arisen in the city, and the police department must have the final line of defense, and maybe there will be survivors or people with knowledge of the situation.
He only had a pistol and very few spare bullets, and Claire had a dagger except for the one he had just gotten.
Ethan certainly had a lot of weapons in his hands, but he didn't need to take them out now, so he only took a Beretta to deal with the situation.
Serena was the most armed, and she was used to carrying weapons with her, with two Beretta 93F automatic pistols hanging from her trench coat and plenty of magazines.
"Want to hear my advice?"
"What advice?"
In front of a few people, there were a few zombies wandering on the street. These things are vulnerable in Ethan's eyes, but Leon, who is a rookie police officer, is a little nervous, considering whether to clear these zombies and advance slowly, or rush directly through the gap. It seemed to him that these monsters were slow to react and not move fast enough.
"Try to hit them on the head with a cold weapon. β
Ethan picked up an iron pipe from the side of the road, he didn't know what it was, but it was just right now, he raised it and rushed directly to the nearest zombie, and then directly inserted the iron pipe into the zombie's head before the zombie could react.
The skulls of these virus-corrupted zombies have become very fragile, and it doesn't take much effort to blow their heads out.
Ethan pulled the iron pipe back again, and then retreated to Leon's side in a few steps.
"Pipes or fire axes work very well. β
Leon nodded, and he could see that these things reacted slowly and slowly, as long as they didn't swarm up, they could be easily killed with fire axes or iron pipes.
Doing so would also save the already small amount of ammunition, but this kind of work was clearly not suitable for the two women, and it seemed that it was up to him and ......
"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Leon Kennedy. β
Originally, they should have introduced each other in the car, but they were interrupted by Ethan several times, and everyone forgot about this stubble, and only then did they remember that they didn't know each other's names.
"Claire Redfield. β
Claire is not a delicate lady, under the teaching of that fierce brother, this nineteen-year-old girl is just as strong, and she doesn't need to be reminded by Leon or Ethan, Claire has already picked up an iron pipe from the side of the road.
"Serena. β
Serena didn't pick anything up, but both Claire and Leon recognized the automatic pistol in her hand and felt that having someone ready to suppress the monster with fire was a good insurance.
"Ethan. β
Leon nodded, not asking too much, anyway, it was enough to know what to call it. He looked around, and finally could only pick up an iron rod that was about the same, and then began to remove the zombies from this street one by one with Ethan.
Fortunately, there were only a few of them, and the two of them easily put down these zombies, but the way forward had been blocked, and they could only turn into an alley next to them, hoping to pass through here.
There were also two zombies roaming in the alley, also being overturned by Ethan and Leon, who did not exit to move in a different direction, because there was a gun shop in front of them.
Ethan had always wanted to complain about the shopkeeper, and in this situation, he actually ignored the huge floor-to-ceiling glass wall...... Where did he get the confidence that this thing could stop those zombies?
The four of them entered the gun shop together and met the hapless gun shop owner, who this time did not come over and lock the door because Ethan had locked it directly.
Then before the boss could speak, he pointed directly to the glass wall next to him: "You don't have a roller shutter door or anything here?"
As if he had just realized this, the owner of the gun shop immediately shielded the huge floor-to-ceiling glass wall with an automatic roller shutter door.
"Thank you for reminding me, young man. The gun shop owner stretched out his hand and shook Ethan's hand: "It's hard to see normal people now, so I'm sorry I was a little excited just now." β
As soon as several people entered, they were pointed at by the boss with shotguns, but fortunately he didn't shoot directly, otherwise Ethan couldn't guarantee that Leon, who was the first to come in, wouldn't be killed by a single shot.
After all, this is the real world, and the ghost knows if the gun shop owner will really shoot with a shake of his hand at that moment.
"We're going to the police station, do you want to come with us?"
"I don't think it's a good idea, it's all those damn monsters all over the place right now. "The owner of the gun shop didn't want to leave his lair because there were enough weapons here, and he felt safer staying here.
However, Ethan directly dispelled his idea: "If this city is full of those monsters as you said, then you are just waiting for death here, no matter how many weapons there are, how can you solve the problem of food and water? β
The gun shop owner thought about it and had to admit that Ethan had a point.
He is just a small shop here, and he usually does not store any food and water, he can stay here for a day or two at most, if there is no rescue at that time, even if he wants to leave, I am afraid that he will not have enough physical strength to escape to a safe place.
"You're right. β
The owner of the gun shop finally decides to act with Lyon, while introducing his own name: Robert Kent. The small team of four people became five, and all they had to do now was to make the best use of the resources they could.
This is a weapons shop, so it's not good to replenish your weapons and equipment, is it really like in the game and just take two boxes of 9mm bullets and leave?
Leon, who had restocked his ammo and was armed with some spears, was a little relieved that he didn't have to rely on a pistol with not many bullets left to face the zombies in the city.
Although he had plenty of ammo, Leon still brought a fire axe, and he felt that Ethan's previous proposal made perfect sense, and it was still good to use this thing when facing a small number of enemies, and it could also avoid attracting more monsters due to the sound of gunfire.
At this moment, there was a sudden explosion outside, and considering the chaos outside, it didn't seem strange that there was an explosion, but the sound seemed to be a little close.
Ethan suddenly had a strange feeling that the car they had just thrown on the street might not have escaped its predetermined fate.
