Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

As soon as he steadied himself, he lowered his voice and called out to the top of the train, "Stop dawdling and hurry up and catch up."

He had barely finished speaking when two more people jumped down from the roof of the car.

It was Shen Ye and Claude.

When they landed, Claude deliberately showed off, brandishing the greatsword that he had never parted from, striking an incredibly cool pose.

"Hey kid, keep a low profile." Shen Ye sighed and covered his forehead as he watched Claude strike a pose.

"There are no spectators here. Are you going to pose like that for the air?"

Claude, still posing, twitched at the corner of his mouth. He glanced at Shen Ye with some resentment, but still ended his dashing pose and slung the greatsword behind his back.

Just then, two more Shinra soldiers appeared at the station's entrance, and upon seeing them, raised their guns at them.

"Who are you?" one of the Shinra soldiers took two steps forward and shouted.

The members of Avalanche didn't bother to answer the question. Barrett even smiled dismissively and said to Claude and Shen Ye behind him as he walked forward, "It's your turn to step in."

Before Shen Ye could react, Claude rushed out first, drew his greatsword, and charged towards the two Shinra soldiers.

"Damn it, stop right now!" shouted the Shinra soldier who had spoken first. "Or we'll open fire."

But Claude merely glanced at him indifferently, then raised his greatsword high and slashed at them.

bang bang bang...

Upon seeing this, the two Shinra patrol soldiers immediately pulled the trigger, and countless bullets shot towards Cloud.

However, as a "1st" special forces soldier, Claude was completely unaffected by ordinary bullets. He wielded his greatsword, deflecting the incoming bullets one by one, leaving the two Shinra soldiers dumbfounded and forgetting to dodge.

Ordinary Shinra soldiers were no match for Cloud; in an instant, Cloud dispatched the two Shinra soldiers.

"Well done, Claude."

After Shen Ye and the others entered the checkpoint of the station, the fat man Weiji, who was at the back of the group, couldn't help but praise them. Then he went up the stairs to the next floor of the station.

Cloud showed no reaction to Vige's praise, remaining focused on dealing with the ever-appearing Shinra soldiers.

After he slew the last Shinra soldier, he ran up to the next level.

In front of a huge electronic door on the upper level, Jesse and Biggs are using their tablets to hack and unlock it.

Just then, Wiggie, who had seen Claude come up, ran up to him and gave him a thumbs-up with a look of admiration.

"Don't assume I'm on your side. Once the work is done, we'll go our separate ways," Claude said expressionlessly.

Wedge paused for a moment, feeling uncomfortable with Claude's indifference, and could only awkwardly withdraw his thumbs-up.

Upon hearing Claude's words, Biggs couldn't help but say to Jesse, "He's got a personality, seems like a bit difficult to deal with."

"Indeed, although he's very handsome, I don't like his personality." Jesse likes handsome men, especially good-looking ones, but Claude's personality makes her keep her at a distance.

“Shen’s personality is better; at least we can hang out together,” Jesse added.

"Thank you for the compliment, but you should be mindful of the occasion before speaking ill of others, as he can hear you," Shen Ye suddenly spoke up behind Jesse.

Jesse was startled by Shen Ye's sudden appearance behind him. He patted his rather large chest and said nonchalantly, "Anyway, it's an employer-employee relationship. It shouldn't matter if he hears it. Besides, judging from his personality, he shouldn't be the kind of person who holds grudges!"

"That's hard to say." Shen Ye glanced back at Claude, but the other stood there with his arms crossed and a cold expression on his face, as if he hadn't heard their conversation.

“Okay, I take back what I just said. He is indeed a magnanimous person.” Shen Ye smiled.

Upon hearing his words, Claude's expression finally changed, and he glared at him with some disgust.

"Is it still not done?"

Barrett, who had been standing in front of a fence, seemingly lost in thought or observing, turned around and walked over, giving Claude a shove as he passed by.

“Give me a little more time, Barrett. Shinra’s security software isn’t that easy to crack.” Jesse glanced at the cracking progress on his tablet; it was still at least a third of the way through.

"Hurry up, we don't have much time." Barrett knew this was a technical task, but he still urged them on.

As the saying goes, fat people are carefree. While waiting for the door to open, Wedge, who had been stunned for a while, seemed to have forgotten that he hadn't gotten a good look from Claude earlier. He ran up to Claude and said, "If it were just for money, you wouldn't have come to a place like this, would you? You must be like us, doing this for the planet..."

“I’m not interested in that. I’m only interested in the high hiring fee you’re offering.” Claude interrupted Wedge, not even bothering to look at him, and turned to look in the other direction.

Once again, Vicky was embarrassed when he didn't get a good look. He looked at Claude, then at Shen Ye and the others, and hesitated to speak.

Just as he was about to say something to ease his embarrassment, he suddenly heard Jesse cheering excitedly, "Ha, it's done!"

As Jesse's voice faded, the electronic door slowly opened.

"I'll go in first, you guys follow me." The door was only halfway open when Biggs rushed in with his gun in both hands. After confirming it was safe, he waved to those behind him.

"Let's go together," Shen Ye said to Jesse.

Jesse put away the tablet, nodded, and ran inside with Shen Ye, their backs bent low.

Barrett didn't go in with them, but turned around and called out, "Wedge, you go in first."

After Wedge left, Barrett continued to say to Cloud, "Although you are Tifa's friend, don't forget that we also paid a lot of money to hire you. You had better treat us politely and not disappoint us."

In fact, he already disliked this guy a bit; his cold personality made him impossible to like. However, since he had already hired him, and Tifa had recommended him, he could only put up with it for now.

Claude glanced at Barrett with a blank expression, then nodded indifferently and walked into the room.

"Wedge, are you alright? Don't mind that blond kid, that's just his personality."

On the way to the core area of ​​the Mako Reactor, Shen Ye noticed that Weiji was in a low mood, so he went over and patted his broad shoulder.

"It's alright." Weiji and Shen Ye had only met a few times and their relationship wasn't particularly good. Seeing the other party come over to comfort him, he smiled gratefully at him.

"It's alright." Shen Ye nodded to him, then looked back at him.

Behind them, Cloud was fighting against a steady stream of Shinra soldiers, with many patrol dogs trained by the Shinra Corporation also joining the battle. However, these soldiers and patrol dogs were just a bunch of grunts, and Cloud easily dealt with them all.

"Although his personality isn't very likable, his abilities are undeniable. We got our money's worth," Jesse remarked, glancing back at him.

"After all, he is the 1st, the strongest special forces soldier." Shen Ye nodded. Even if this 1st title was self-proclaimed by Claude due to memory confusion, and his true strength might not have really reached the 1st level, he still had to admit that Claude was indeed quite capable.

“Alright, now’s not the time for idle chatter. Biggs has cleared the way.” Barrett interrupted the two, watching Biggs cut through the fence blocking the way with tools, before crawling into the hole first.

……

As a large and complex building, the Mako Reactor is not only heavily guarded, but its internal routes are also extremely complicated, like a maze. Without a map, it is easy to get lost if you are not careful.

However, Shen Ye and his companions didn't need to worry about getting lost or going the wrong way, because they had a map of the interior of the No. 1 Mako Reactor.

Having a map, they were able to move much faster inside the Mako Reactor than outside, because they didn't have to take detours or spend time searching for the way out of fear of getting lost.

"I wonder where Tifa got that map of the Mako Reactor's interior. It's incredibly accurate!" Jessie exclaimed as she led the way with her tablet. She hadn't believed it at first, but once inside, she found the map to be ridiculously accurate, as if it were taken directly from the original design.

"Who knows? Maybe she has her own connections." Barrett didn't know either. Although he was a little curious, he didn't ask too many questions when Tifa gave them the map. After all, everyone has their own secrets.

Shen Ye nodded thoughtfully, recalling that when they parted ways at the walled shopping street last time, Tifa had left in Scarlett's car.

"It can only be her, otherwise Tifa would never have been able to get a map of the Mako Reactor's interior," Shen Ye thought.

Now that they had a map, the incident where Barrett questioned them after entering the interior and asked Cloud to lead them to the Mako Reactor land bridge did not occur. Therefore, they surprisingly did not have any further disputes along the way.

After taking care of another group of expendable henchmen, they arrived at an elevator.

"Biggs, you stay here, the rest of us will go up," Barrett instructed, then pressed the elevator door open button.

“Don’t worry, Barrett.” Biggs raised his pistol and gave them a reassuring gesture.

Afterwards, Shen Ye and the others entered the elevator.

……

(After working overtime for four consecutive days, I'm completely dazed. If I suddenly stop updating one day, it's definitely not because I don't want to write anymore, but because I'm too tired and end up in the hospital.)

(I'll continue updating this chapter after a short break.)

Chapter 170! The Malfunctioning Defense System

(The previous chapter has been significantly revised and two thousand words have been added.)

……

Just as they entered the elevator, in the president's office of Shinra Empire, a Shinra executive with a full beard, a scar above his right eye, and wearing a double-breasted coat walked in.

This person is Heidegger, the head of Shinra's security maintenance department.

"President, according to the investigation, those scoundrels call themselves 'Avalanche,' but we still don't know what their connection is with the Avalanche that tried to assassinate you." Heidegger stood behind the Shinra president, reporting the information he had obtained.

“However, they are only claiming to be involved. Whether they are actually the people from the avalanche remains to be seen, so Mr. President, please give us a little more time,” Heidegger continued.

Shinra's president looked at the screen, which clearly showed the elevator's surveillance footage. After listening to Heidegger's words, he nodded slightly.

Heidegger breathed a sigh of relief. Not receiving the criticism he had expected made him feel much more relaxed. Just as he was about to leave, the president of Shinra suddenly called him back.

"Heidegger, while you're at it, investigate further. It seems there's a mole within our ranks."

"What?" Heidegger exclaimed in surprise. "How did you know?"

The Shinra president pointed at Jesse in the surveillance footage: "This young girl seems to be very familiar with the inside of the Mako Reactor. She has never gotten lost once. I remember last time we went to inspect the Mako Reactor, even the person in charge almost led us astray. I think she must have a map of the inside of the Mako Reactor."

"I understand." Heidegger also realized the seriousness of the matter, and left the office with his feet together.

……

Inside the elevator, Barrett was gesturing wildly as he explained things to Shen Ye and Claude.
