Chapter 588 Another Competition
Although the military Hummer had already stopped at the intersection, Li Tianyu and the others still had to deal with the lickers blocking their way first. But the Licker is no different than ordinary zombies, with super thick blood volume, and after eating him two Thunder Dragons, four Thunder Birds and one Thunder Flash, he can still get up from the ground.
Seeing this, Nana also came over to help him deal with the lickers. She waved and threw a blown kiss, and then shot arrows all over the sky. Her abilities are different from others, there is no difference between a sniper rifle and a shotgun, and all of them have special effects of petrification. However, even petrification is still limited in the face of lickers.
Although her captive arrow briefly petrified the licker, before she could attack, the licker forcibly broke free from the petrification effect, but the petrified part of its body shattered and sprayed out a lot of blood. It's just that such a small injury is still not enough to slow down the pace of the licker, but it makes it more violent, it opened its mouth suddenly and stuck out its tongue.
The tongue flew towards Nana like a sharp arrow, and Zhang Wenxin pushed her quickly, but the licker's tongue still penetrated Nana's shoulder. Li Tianyu and Lin Muxue immediately concentrated their firepower and launched an attack on the licker, hitting half a tube of blue before the licker finally fell backwards to the ground, twitched a few times and began to melt.
At this time, Zhang Wenxin helped Nana up from the ground, and with a slap of rice cakes, the zombies that rushed up in front of her were blown away. These zombies fell to the ground and tripped the zombies that came up behind. The scene was chaotic, but the zombies that fell on the ground were still crawling towards them unyieldingly, and one of them jumped at Li Tianyu's ankle and bit it.
Li Tianyu raised his feet to avoid the zombie's hands, and then stepped on the zombie's head hard, crushing its head.
"How is it? Can you still move?" Lin Muxue supported Nana and asked, Nana nodded while covering her shoulders: "Yes..."
"Hurry up, get in the car first." Li Tianyu urged them, and the zombies behind had already started to stand up slowly.
The three walked along the roof of the weapons store to the roof of the jewelry store next door, and then came to the coffee shop next door to the jewelry store, followed the billboard outside the coffee shop and jumped into the Hummer car. As soon as the three of them got into the car, two men dressed as soldiers drove the car forward. The driver exclaimed: "I didn't expect that there are still people alive in this place!"
At this time, Li Tianyu saw the words "S.T.A.R.S" on the body armor of the two soldiers. This is the "Special Tactics and Rescue Service Team" in Resident Evil. It has appeared many times in the series of Resident Evil games. The protagonist of the series Chris, Jill, Wesker and others are all responsible for this organization, which is actually a very important key organization in the series.
But in the movie of Resident Evil 2, "S.T.A.R.S" was reduced to the background wall of the Nemesis. Basically, it went through a cutscene, and then it was completely wiped out the moment it met the Nemesis. But in fact, the members of "S.T.A.R.S" are very capable in fighting, and they are not lost to professionally trained soldiers.
"Where are you going?" Li Tianyu asked tentatively.
"Let's find a safe base first, we have called for rescue, and the 'S.T.A.R.S' headquarters will send people to support soon. If you have no good place to go, I suggest you come with us. Although we are already surrounded by zombies, But we have sufficient weapons and ammunition to support the arrival of rescue." The other party said confidently.
Li Tianyu pondered for a while, he reckoned to go with these "S.T.A.R.S" players, and finally hide with them in the scene in the movie. In the original work, the Nemesis found the members of the "S.T.A.R.S" hiding here in a fast food restaurant and wiped them out. The playing time of the members of "S.T.A.R.S" before and after may only be two minutes.
If they go with "S.T.A.R.S", they will meet the Nemesis in the end at night.
But the Nemesis received the order to eliminate all "S.T.A.R.S" members, and the four of them are civilians and are not within the attack range of the trackers, so they can survive safely, but do they really want to take this route?
"What do you think is better?" Li Tianyu turned to Lin Muxue and asked, "Should we wait until dark with S.T.A.R.S and flee together, or go directly to the research institute now?"
"My shoulder hurts so much..." Nana cried while clutching the wound on her shoulder.
"Do you have any red herbs?" Li Tianyu asked, Nana was taken aback and said, "Well, I picked one up earlier..."
"Here you are, this green herbal medicine can restore 100% of your blood volume after being combined." Li Tianyu replied.
"Is it okay? Just use up a set of red and green herbs for such a simple matter?" Zhang Wenxin asked a little worriedly, "The game has just begun, what if you still need these recovery medicines in the later stage? The wound is not very serious."
"Forget it, just use it." Li Tianyu sighed, "The most important thing in this scene is not to be injured. The threat mainly comes from the little zombies. If you are bitten by the little zombies, you will be infected. The main problem , On the contrary, if you are injured, it is easier to deal with, there are recovery medicines to restore blood volume, and if not, there are resurrection coins to resurrect."
"Alright then." Zhang Wenxin said reluctantly, "But you still have to be careful? Don't let yourself get hurt."
Nana mixed the red and green powder and ate it, and the wound healed completely soon.
"Then, to continue the previous topic, which route should we choose?" Li Tianyu asked.
"If you ask me, I must have chosen to go to the research institute." Lin Muxue said as a matter of course, "Since I already know what the end of going with S.T.A.R.S is, why should I try that road? Of course I try it myself A new route. They won’t act until night, right?”
"But I think it's safer to follow S.T.A.R.S." Zhang Wenxin replied, "The ending of that route is not completely known. The period from day to night is unknown. Moreover, the plot of S.T.A.R.S after it is wiped out by the trackers is also unknown."
"I'll just..." Nana said tremblingly at the side, and Li Tianyu immediately covered his forehead: "Isn't it equivalent to not saying anything? I asked you because I couldn't make up my mind, you guys... "
However, during the conversation, the car had already arrived at the entrance of the fast food restaurant. This area had obviously been cleaned up. The density of zombies was much lower than other places, and some fortifications had been piled up near the windows of the restaurant. A sniper sat on the top of the restaurant and aimed at them, occasionally cleaning up a zombie approaching this side.
Overall, it looks pretty safe here. At this time, Li Tianyu's stomach also "gurgled".
"Go ahead and have a look." Li Tianyu replied, "It's time to replenish supplies."
So, the four of them followed the two S.T.A.R.S players to the restaurant, where the supplies were still sufficient.
Li Tianyu could see a dozen beers and some food on the side of the dining table, and the two people who brought them over waved their hands and said, "If you need anything, feel free. It would be better if you can help arrange fortifications. But overall As far as this place is very safe, we have cleaned up all the nearby zombies, and there is enough food for two or three days, and the best thing is that there is cold beer."
Li Tianyu was also polite, and immediately grabbed a sandwich and gnawed on it, then opened a bottle of beer and took a big gulp.
"Hurry up and eat something, we will continue to act later." Li Tianyu reminded Lin Muxue and the others.
"Hmm..." Zhang Wenxin thought for a while, then grabbed a Hawaiian rice ball and ate it, "I'm a little hungry."
"I don't know where Xiuyi is, I really want to be with him..." Nana said aggrievedly while eating a hot dog, Lin Muxue frowned and said, "Oh, you're almost there. We've reached this stage, so we should rely on ourselves." ?”
"I didn't have the strength to get to this stage..." Nana said pitifully, "It was Xiuyi who protected me, plus a little bit of luck, otherwise I would have been eliminated..."
"Luck is also strength." Zhang Wenxin said seriously, "Who doesn't have any element of luck?"
"Leaving aside the previous mode," Li Tianyu said, and opened another Hawaiian rice ball, "In this mode, you actually have an advantage. Your ability to fight zombies has special effects. It feels like the frozen bomb in the Resident Evil series." , When you fight monsters, you have your own control. One hit freezes and two hits kill, you have to make good use of this advantage, everyone's ability has a battlefield to play."
"That's right. You see, I'm not weak, but I can also be the MVP in the last mode." Lin Muxue persuaded, "They are all adults, and the game has reached this stage, cheer up, don't give Teammates are causing trouble."
"Okay..." Nana muttered, and continued to eat the hot dog.
Li Tianyu sighed beside him, he could understand Nana's uneasiness, and he also hoped that Shen Yan would be by his side, but what he can do now is to make a perfect start as much as possible. So far he hasn't reunited with Shen Yan, but he will definitely meet in the future. At that time, only if they have an advantage on their side can they make up for the possible disadvantages of their teammates.
After replenishing energy, Li Tianyu began to prepare for the next move. He asked the members of S.T.A.R.S about the specific location of the research institute in the city.
"Why are you going there?" an old man with a cigar in his mouth asked them sideways.
"I heard that that place is related to the Umbrella Company, maybe you can find something there. Vaccines or materials..." Li Tianyu explained simply, "You want to get these things too, right?"
"Umbrella Company..." The old man narrowed his eyes, and then unhurriedly exhaled a puff of smoke rings: "I advise you to forget it, the place is now surrounded by zombies, and it is not an easy task to enter the inside." But..." The old man said, shrugging his shoulders, "Your courage is still commendable, do you want to listen to my advice?"
The old man said, pointing behind him: "Stay with us here, as long as we are still alive, we will definitely keep you safe. Of course, if you insist on going, I won't stop you."
Li Tianyu knows that this is the branch of the plot, whether to follow S.T.A.R.S or go to the research institute by himself.
But they have to go early and late. After the S.T.A.R.S is completely wiped out by the trackers, their goal is still the research institute.
"I insist on going. If we can find a vaccine, maybe we can prevent this disaster." Li Tianyu replied seriously. Ray, fill up the Humvee's gas tank and get them some guns and ammo."
With that said, the old man took the car keys into Li Tianyu's hands: "Don't say I left you nothing."
In addition to Humvees, they also received a very sufficient supply of ammunition.
In the previous battle at the weapon store, their mana was consumed a lot, so the ammunition obtained in the weapon store has been replenished, and it is time to replenish it now. The military Hummer can also perfectly resist the attack of ordinary zombies, as long as it hides in the car, it is basically safe. They drove all the way, and finally came to the research institute that they were thinking about.
"It's finally here..." Li Tianyu let out a long sigh of relief, and then opened his heart network to sense it first.
The terrain of this research institute is extremely complicated. Although it looks like a science and technology research institute on the surface, in fact, the internal room structure is extremely complicated, and there are two labyrinth-like structures below. However, the good news is that when they got here, the prompt of "scan for treasures" finally appeared on their mobile phones, which indicated that there were "treasures" needed for the game in this place.
However, apart from this point, Li Tianyu also sensed several other "players" from this research institute. The reason why these people can be determined to be players is because the surrounding zombies are gathering towards them.
In this scene, the NPCs are all just going through the cutscenes to promote the plot, either dying instantly or standing in place, so it must be the player who will move to other places. At that time, Li Tianyu was a little anxious: Is this the competition routine of this model? Both players will pass through the same scene and compete for the same batch of resources?
If this is the case, then they must hurry up and speed up, otherwise the treasure will be snatched by hostile players.
"Hurry up, there are already people inside!" Li Tianyu waved his hands anxiously, and then ran inward with Lin Muxue and the others. Lin Muxue asked nervously after hearing the words: "There are already people? Then can you just flash and take us in?"
"It's not realistic." Li Tianyu shook his head, "My judgment in this scene is that I passed through all the space between two points by default, and would trigger all the enemies in this space, which is too dangerous. Moreover, there are treasures in this scene, we must search carefully."
"Okay, then let's hurry up!" Lin Muxue also knew the seriousness of the situation, and immediately speeded up.
