Chapter 39: Jill

Ethan looked at the sign in English and felt the urge to turn around and go in the other direction.

Raccoon Town, from the famous work Resident Evil, has appeared directly or indirectly in several works in the series, and is a city full of disasters.

So, he's now wondering which version he's in.

If it is the story of the game version, Raccoon Town is supposed to be a small town in the northwest of North America, not a big city, and the Ambrera company has arranged the research institute here for a long time without being discovered.

In fact, if it is a game version of the world, Ethan is not worried about the safety of himself and Arthur, although the biochemical incident is very difficult to deal with, but every time it is controlled in a controllable area, as long as he can take the initiative to stay away from the place of the incident, most of this world is still very safe, not much different from the earth where he lived in his previous life, and even slightly higher in technology - compared with the times.

If it's a movie version of the plot, it's not easy, even if he and Arthur turn around and leave immediately, they can't escape the biochemical virus that will spread into a global disaster.

But this time, he strengthened his control over the energy when he shuttled, and the space-time energy was honestly stored in the magic array in his left hand, so he and Arthur couldn't leave this world for a short time - he could only control the energy to prevent it from overflowing and dissipating, and he couldn't actively trigger it to send him back to the Sea of Calm.

Standing under the sign, you can vaguely see the city in the distance, the towering skyscrapers are very conspicuous, and it also indirectly tells Ethan which version of Raccoon Town this is.

"I remember the game version...... Cities aren't so advanced, and they don't have as many skyscrapers. ”

Ethan turned his head to look at Arthur, who was quietly waiting for him, and suddenly noticed the armor on Arthur's body.

"We're going to have to change our clothes first. ”

"What?" Arthur only knew that Ethan had the ability to travel between planes, but he didn't know that Ethan was very familiar with many planes. "Is the world safe?"

Ethan couldn't explain it either, so he could only use "It's easier to attract attention in our outfit now." This involves another big secret of his own, which he has not shared with anyone, and which is firmly hidden in his heart.

"So do you wear plain casual clothes?"

Ethan suddenly began to feel a headache. Arthur didn't talk about it for a while, the casual clothes he brought with him were all old styles, and even the clothes he brought with him were similar, which were as eye-catching in this modern city.

After thinking about it, in the end, there was no way, and Ethan decided not to change.

"Forget it, just wear the armor. ”

It's good to directly pretend to be young people who go to the Comic Con, there are many similar activities in this country, and they are not inferior to the island country in Asia, plus the two of them are less than eighteen years old and the other is only about fourteen years old, so it is not strange for young people to participate in this kind of activity.

The only thing to be aware of is not to let people get too close and notice that they are wearing 'real guys'.

"Where are we going now?"

"There......" Ethan pointed to the vaguely visible edge of the city, "the city called Raccoon Town." ”

As he was about to move forward, Ethan remembered that Arthur didn't speak English.

"Are your dizziness symptoms better?"

Arthur shook his head: "There are still a few more, but it doesn't affect the battle." ”

In this case, it is impossible to 'teach' the knowledge of English to Arthur, so let him pretend to be dumb for a while, Ethan and a depressed Arthur walk towards Raccoon Town.

In fact, he can leave this place, even if the outbreak of Resident Evil is inevitable, and even becomes a global disaster, but it will take a while to ferment, and no matter how long Ethan stays in this world, he will not stay until the day when the world becomes a desert.

It's just that he's shuttling between planes, for what? Is it just to find some food and water? That's a waste of power.

Compared to those, the most important thing is to collect the unique resources of each plane to make yourself stronger faster. Although Resident Evil is a sci-fi world, that doesn't mean those things aren't useful to Ethan.

The various viruses in the Resident Evil world are just a kind of raw material in the eyes of the mage, especially the movie version of the T-virus, which has a certain probability of stimulating a substantial increase in mental power, how can he not be tempted?

The only thing worth worrying about is whether this potion will pollute the mental power? As for the other side effects, it is easier to solve - the magic potion he learned to make is to extract a certain characteristic of the raw material separately, so he only needs to extract the effect of improving mental power, and he can get rid of the other effects attached to the T virus.

Of course, it can be done theoretically, but whether it will work or not depends on the actual thing. On top of that, he had to judge the current timeline to determine what period he was in.

From current observations, Raccoon Town still exists. As we walked in, more and more vehicles came and went, and it was already certain that Resident Evil had not completely erupted.

"By the way, when you came out, did Merlin prepare some gold jewelry for you or something? "He doesn't have any money on him, and now that Resident Evil hasn't broken out, Raccoon Town is still a normal city, and they need some money to live.

"I brought a little bit of gold. ”

Merlin was really thoughtful, and considering that currencies such as copper and silver coins might not be able to circulate in other worlds, he directly brought some gold to Arthur - if the gold could not be circulated, then there was no way.

However, in this world, gold can still be circulated. It's just that he wants to turn gold into money, and Ethan finds it more troublesome than he thought.

Regular shops don't accept gold from unknown sources, especially these two young people don't look very old, and the other party suspects where these two 'bad boys' melted the stolen goods and made these pieces of gold to sell.

Only a few private shops were willing to take over, and the price was disgusting to Ethan, but he still sold it happily, and now he urgently needed some money for food, lodging and clothing, and he didn't care about bargaining with the profiteers.

Of course, the two young men were peddling gold everywhere, and it was inevitable that some unscrupulous people were watching, and even though they had sold the gold, they still had cash on them!

Naturally, the result was a violent beating.

If it weren't for the fact that they didn't want to get along with the cops in Raccoon Town, these guys wouldn't have been let go so easily.

To Ethan's surprise, he actually found a Beretta from one of them, which was also the only trophy.

"It is truly a beacon of freedom. ”

Looking at the magazine, fifteen rounds filled the magazine, and Ethan put it away.

It suddenly occurred to him that in this world he could collect more thermal weapons, which were suitable for him to use now. The Sea of Calm estimates that no one can resist the firearms.

Instead of caring about the gangsters, Ethan and Arthur found a small inn nearby - because they had no identification, and they spent extra money to successfully move in, which made Ethan realize that he would need to solve the problem of identity as soon as possible when he entered the world of modern background.

Over the next few days, Ethan bought the clothes he and Arthur were going to wear next, and then bought a lot of handy modern items.

Having lived in a similar ancient world for many years, what he missed most was the convenience of modern society, and he even had the urge to buy everything he saw and bring it back to the Sea of Calm.

Unfortunately, it was an impossible task, many things could not be used in the Sea of Calm at all, and he couldn't bring much with him from exhaustion such consumables as toilet paper.

He went around the library in Raccoon Town and copied a great deal of modern knowledge with the Book of Heritage, which focused on books on the development and structure of navigation and ships.

Originally, he had planned to wait until the evening to go to the outskirts of Raccoon Town to find the villa that served as the entrance to the hive, but he didn't expect to come out of the library when he was stopped by a woman.

The woman in front of her had short brown hair, was wearing a blue-black training uniform with black boots tucked into the hem and a plain blue short-sleeved shirt on her upper body. Looking at the other party's face again, the more familiar appearance finally reminded Ethan of who this woman was.

Jill Valentine, or Jill Valentine.

A member of the Raccoon City Police Department's Special Operations Team STARS.

Compared with the characters in the movie version, Ethan has a deeper impression and better understanding of the characters in the game version, and the other party is not wearing the short skirt in the movie, so he didn't recognize the identity of the person in front of him for the first time.

"Raccoon Town Cop, Jill Valentine. ”

First, showing his ID, Jill pointed to the side, signaling that he had something to talk to Ethan, and it was better to get out of the way first.

"Okay, officer. Ethan walked to the side, and then looked at Jill who kept looking at him, "Is there anything wrong?"

"You have been accused of causing bodily harm to others and robbing them of their property. ”

"Huh?"

Ethan thought that he had come to investigate his sale of gold from unknown sources, or had he stayed at the hotel without any documents to arouse suspicion, but he had not thought that someone had accused him of personal injury and robbery?

He immediately remembered the gangsters who had been taught a lesson by himself: "It's really ......" Ethan couldn't think of any suitable words to describe this kind of thing for a long time, these guys deliberately called the police to disgust themselves, it seems that the day was light.

"I want to warn you that you're in front of an experienced police officer, and I can't pretend I can't see your look like you're trying to get into trouble. ”

Ethan looked back at the female police officer in front of him, and finally shrugged his shoulders: "I didn't say anything, I didn't admit anything, you said someone accused me, so now you want to arrest me?"

"No! I know better than you who that guy is. Jill suddenly showed a very serious expression: "What I want to know is, who are you?"
