Chapter 46: The Red Queen Again
"Found?" Ethan asked Kaplan carefully, "Are you sure you've got control?"
"I'm sure. Kaplan nodded: "And isn't the Red Queen already closed?"
Now that the Red Queen has been shut down, has lost the artificial intelligence as an opponent, and only has some mechanical defense programs left, Kaplan thinks that this thing can't stop him at all, and he doesn't understand why Ethan keeps emphasizing it?
Of course he doesn't know, where this elevator is connected, there should be a red queen host, Ethan is worried about the body that is very likely to be the red queen, what is he doing when he goes down?
Thankfully, Kaplan did gain control, and after everyone gathered around the console, Kaplan typed the last command on the computer, and then the console vibrated and began to descend to the bottom.
The mercenaries didn't even care about the zombies that kept falling from the higher and higher gates, and they all looked at Ethan in surprise.
At this time, Alice, who had gradually regained some of her memory, no longer seemed harmless as she had just been, and suddenly became more aggressive.
"Who the hell are you?"
This is the question on everyone's mind, why does Ethan know so much about the hive? Who is he? Seeing that his actions seem to be sabotaging Ambrera's plans, so he was sent by Ambrera's rivals, or is he an agent affiliated with an official organization?
But...... Do agents have to dress up like medieval knights?
This is what is most incomprehensible to everyone present. If Ethan and Arthur were dressed normally, even if Arthur looked like a teenager, he could be regarded as a specially trained young agent, but that armor ...... What the hell is that long sword?
"Me?" Ethan pulled out a cloth and wiped the sword, wondering if the sword needed to be properly disinfected, otherwise if he brought it back like this, would it spread the T-virus to the Sea of Calm?
When he heard Alice's question, his reaction was half a beat slower, and he casually coped with what he had said to Jill before: "It should be the savior of this world." ”
Everyone was speechless at Ethan's answer, but Alice did not laugh, but continued to ask.
"Do you think this virus will harm the whole world?"
At this time, Ethan completely came back to his senses, he remembered that there was an ultimate antidote at the bottom, as long as it spreads out, it will slowly spread to the entire world as the air spreads, and then all the T viruses and their derivative variants existing in this world will be destroyed. I'm definitely going to use that thing, so I don't seem to need to worry.
"Harm?"
He finally had the heart to answer Alice's question. The speed of this elevator is really slow enough, and as it descends deeper and deeper, there are no more zombies crackling down, and everyone can breathe a little sigh of relief.
The mercenaries hurried to refill their empty magazines, checking their equipment and checking for any wounds on their bodies.
At the same time, he was also paying attention to the conversation between Ethan and Alice.
"No, it's not just about harm. Ethan spoke in a very calm tone, casually about what was going to happen next.
After hearing that the biochemical virus spread, not only did most of the human beings become infected zombies, but even the plants were not spared, all of them withered and died, and the entire earth was almost completely turned into a desert, and everyone was frightened and overwhelmed.
"The End of the World...... Probably not, right?"
"If we lock the hive completely, maybe we will avoid the end of the world?"
After seeing the zombies in person, they believed Ethan's words very much, and almost no one thought that Ethan's description of the future was too bizarre and exaggerated.
Jill didn't talk much at this time, she originally followed Ethan with some 'see what tricks you can play', but she didn't expect to witness such a big thing, and now her mind is a little messy, and she doesn't know what kind of reaction to make for a while.
Only Alice remained calm, pondering how to avoid that terrible apocalyptic future.
Ethan told them directly: "It's all in Ambrera's plan, so it's just wishful thinking that you think that if you close the hive, nothing will happen." ”
"The Hive Research Institute is Ambrera's, do you think they can't open their own research base? What's more, the Hive is not completely isolated from the outside world, there are not many ventilation ducts and other facilities, can you guarantee that the virus does not leak out of these places?"
In fact, there is a separate scene in the Resident Evil film, where the ventilation duct is broken, implying that rats can enter and exit the hive through the broken pipes, and rats can carry the virus to the outside world.
Therefore, even if Ambrera does nothing, the outbreak of the virus is difficult to avoid, as if the fate of the world is predetermined.
This is also the fundamental reason why Ethan must come here: if he does not find the 'antidote', the biochemical viruses in this world are almost incomprehensible.
Maybe if Ethan stays in this world for a few years, he can solve this problem with the knowledge and ability of the mysterious side, but not to mention whether he can stay in this world for that long, even if he can stay for a few years and find a solution, how many people will be left on the earth in a few years?
This is from a large point of view, from a personal point of view, Ethan also needs this potion, understand the principle of it, and avoid accidentally playing big and playing himself to death.
He wants to use the T-virus to increase his mental strength, but only if he doesn't trap himself to death.
Mages often put themselves in danger in order to conduct some kind of experiment, so every mage has a wealth of means to save their lives.
If Ethan was an orthodox mage, he would have prepared a lot of life-saving means for himself before he started such a dangerous experiment. Unfortunately, his path as a mage is different from others, so more and more meticulous prevention work is needed.
He then gave a general account of Ambrera's plan to cleanse humanity, and everyone present felt that their worldview had been impacted.
They had been taken aback by the fact that a business giant like Ambrera had secretly researched the virus. But this is still within the understandable range, after all, this potion is indeed powerful.
Even if it is because they can't give up such a powerful virus, even if they risk a huge danger to open the hive again, they are not incomprehensible. Businessmen, for the sake of business opportunities, a little danger is nothing.
But what the hell is human cleansing?
"Does Ambrera think she is, God?"
As one of the humanity about to be cleansed, there was not a single person present who did not feel outraged. This kind of situation where other people casually decide life and death, but they don't even have a choice, are the most infuriating.
When Ethan said that Ambrella's management was hiding in the cryosleep bin below, quietly waiting for the end of the world to pass, and then come out to rebuild the earth as the leader of humanity, almost everyone began to gear up to give the group of high-flying guys a good look.
"I'm going to pull them out of that tin can and beat them up until they wake up. ”
Ethan, who has been addicted to spoilers, has no spoiler dog consciousness, and he now has a headache how to find that antidote. It seems to be the final boss in this movie world, and it's being kept by that doctor.
"Besides, this guy doesn't know if he's going to sleep?" He had only watched the final chapter of the movie version once, and the film was not particularly good, and there were a lot of slots, he was not too impressed at all, and now he only vaguely remembered some general content.
This is still the improvement of his mental power, and the memory of his previous life has been stabilized. Otherwise, after so many years, you may not even remember the content, and you can only remember a little summary.
While reminiscing, the elevator finally descended to the bottom, and everyone cautiously pushed forward, and to everyone's surprise, there was no security equipment or personnel, and what greeted them was rows of things that looked like tin cans.
"These are the people who are high up in the sky and think they can decide whether the human race in the world is alive or dead?"
Ethan glanced left and right and nodded: "It should be that, it's up to you to decide what to do with this group of guys." He moved on, and he remembered that this was where the final battle of the film would be.
This is the most central console of the entire hive, and the true body of the Red Queen is also hidden within this body. And through this console, you can wake up the real boss of this world......
"What's that guy's name?"
Without any impression or even remembering the name, Ethan stood in front of the huge screen and tapped on the console casually: "If you don't want me to blow this place into ruins, you'd better come out by yourself!"
Seeing that there was no response, Ethan continued to speak to himself: "I think you must know what is going on above, and if you don't want to end up like your subprogram, do as I say." ”
This time, the red queen no longer pretended to be dead, and projected the image of a little girl in front of Ethan.
Seeing the sudden appearance of red, the mercenaries almost instinctively raised their weapons in their hands, and then realized that it was just a projection.
"Why hasn't this thing been turned off yet. ”
Kaplan also deliberately looked at the red motherboard he was carrying, could it be that his partner pulled it out by mistake?
Ethan looked at the little girl who was slightly different from the red queen above: "So, you can control all the facilities of this base, so you can also call Alice 'herself', right?"
Actually, I woke Alicia when you came down. ”
