Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

“Let her go…of course I will let her go.” Hojo crossed his arms, looked Alice up and down, and then nodded: “If you stay, I will let her go.”

"You're dreaming, Hojo. Do you think that's possible?" Shen Ye pointed his gun at Hojo, but didn't fire. When they came in, a squad of Shinra soldiers had already blocked Hojo's way, and Alice's foster mother, Emina, was being pointed at with guns by Shinra soldiers.

Although in the original storyline, Amina survived to the end, and Alice even died before Amina, when they arrived, Fila did not stop them. Therefore, Shen Ye dared not gamble on what would happen if he fired the gun now. If he failed, even if Alice liked him very much, she would find it difficult to forgive him.

Hojo shifted his gaze from Alice to Shen Ye, who also piqued his curiosity. The man before him was a pure-blooded human with a perfectly normal mind, so it was impossible for him to have been injected with Genova. His eyes were also normal black pupils, not the blue ones that came from soaking in Mako fluid. Yet, he was able to fight Sephiroth, which made Hojo both curious and eager to investigate.

"Strange, hehe, really strange." Hojo chuckled and shook his head, then said, "Whether it's possible or not isn't up to you, but rather the Ancient One next to you, Alice. I think she wouldn't want to see her foster mother die in front of her, right, Alice?"

Alice didn't speak, but simply nodded silently. Then, ignoring Tifa's attempts to stop her, she walked towards Hojo.

"Shen!" Tifa called out anxiously when she saw that Shen Ye was unmoved. She didn't understand why Shen Ye wasn't stopping her.

Shen Ye couldn't possibly tell Hojo that he saw Alice make a gesture to him while holding a magic crystal in her palm, so he could only give Tifa a reassuring look.

In fact, Bao Tiao was also a little puzzled, unable to understand why the man named Shen let Alice come over. However, since Alice had already walked up to Emina, he didn't bother to think about it anymore. He waved his hand and ordered his men to keep a close eye on Shen Ye.

"Mother." Alice walked to Amina's side and knelt down to untie the ropes binding her foster mother. The Shinra soldiers nearby had never witnessed Alice's magic before, nor did they know what an Ancient Race was, so after glancing at her, they turned their attention to Shen Ye.

Freed from her restraints, Amina took a deep breath, tears welling in her eyes as she hugged Alice, and said hoarsely, "You shouldn't have come, Alice. I'm old, and even if I die, it won't be a pity, but you..."

"Stop talking, Mother. You won't die, at least not here." Alice interrupted Amina, helped her up, and poured magic into the magic crystal in her palm.

This is one of the many magic crystals that Yuffie gave to Shen Ye. After being infused with magic power, it can instantly cast a wide-range lightning spell. Shen Ye didn't understand it, but Alice figured it out after getting her hands on it.

However, she didn't inject too much magic power; she only managed to activate the magic crystal before stopping. Then, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her, she activated the magic within the magic crystal.

In an instant, a purple magic circle crackling with lightning appeared within a radius of several meters centered on her. Accompanied by crackling sounds, the crackling lightning began to leap onto everyone except her. This was why she only injected a tiny bit of magic power; injecting too much would harm her foster mother.

The moment the magic circle appeared, Shen Ye shouted "Attack!" and raised his revolver to fire at the Shinra soldiers and Hojo.

However, he did not activate the special ability of the Epic Revolver. After all, the psychic waves he fired did not distinguish between friend and foe, so after the first round of shots, only half of the Shinra soldiers fell.

At this moment, the magic power in the magic crystal had been exhausted. As soon as the magic circle disappeared, the Shinra soldiers who had recovered were about to shoot Alice and Amina, but Tifa had already rushed into the crowd and unleashed a burst of punches, sending them flying.

"How infuriating! I never thought you could use magic even without any inheritance. Do ancient species have a unique way of inheriting knowledge? Good heavens, I really want to capture you and study you right now."

Although Hojo was a researcher, he was surprisingly agile. Although he was initially numb all over from the lightning of the magic circle, he ran away as soon as the magic circle disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in an observation room on the second floor of the research lab.

After entering the password to remove the restrictions, Bao Tiao stood by the protective glass and said to Shen Ye and the others in the central open space on the first floor of the research lab, "In that case, let you try this. It's the result of my years of research."

As he finished speaking, the glass cover of a petri dish opened from the middle to both sides, and a monster with tentacles covering its face and back, and arms like the tyrant Shen Ye had seen before, walked out.

“My masterpiece, sample HO512, I hope you won’t go easy on me,” Hojo said with a sinister smile.

Chapter 215! Crimson Thirteen

……

“I never show mercy to my enemies.” Shen Ye said coldly as he watched the sample HO512 stride toward them, then raised the Epic Revolver and pulled the trigger.

bang bang bang...

The psychic energy waves, accompanied by bullets, rained down on the monster. Almost instantly, the monster was blasted into pieces by the dense psychic energy waves.

"How...how is this possible?" Hojo's sinister smile froze as he watched the experimental sample turn into specks of green light and disappear into the air.

"How could all my years of painstaking research be like this? It's a hallucination, yes, it must be a hallucination." Hojo thought it was his hallucination, so he rubbed his eyes hard and looked again, but the experimental sample had indeed disappeared.

"This is your masterpiece? Your years of painstaking research? It's too weak, it's just a pile of garbage, no matter how many you bring, it won't make a difference." Shen Ye said disdainfully, then gave Bao Tiao a thumbs-down mocking gesture.

"Damn it, how dare you look down on my research results! I'm going to kill you—no, I'm going to capture you, dissect you alive, and then turn you into a monster too!" No matter how much he was cursed, Hojo wouldn't get angry, but when it came to his research results, he simply couldn't stand it. In a furious roar, he quickly entered the password to open all the culture dishes on the control panel.

Amidst the hissing of gas exhaust, all the petri dishes in the research lab were turned on simultaneously, and all the monsters, whether successful or not, rushed out.

"Grab them! Grab them!" Bao Tiao shouted frantically, ordering the experimental subjects to attack Shen Ye and his group.

However, only a small portion of these experimental samples obeyed his orders; the vast majority seemed mindless, randomly destroying the surrounding equipment and even starting to kill each other.

Shen Ye and his group quickly dealt with the monsters that pounced on them, and then rushed up the stairs to the observation room where Bao Tiao was.

But seeing that things were not going well, Hojo had already run away. No matter how evil he was, he was ultimately just an ordinary person who couldn't even kill a chicken.

Having escaped the research lab, Hojo frantically pressed the elevator door button, but every elevator stopped at the bottom floor. So he gave up on the idea of ​​leaving by elevator and turned to enter the corridor outside the lab. There was a safety passage not far ahead that he could use to leave.

But he hadn't run far when a crimson creature, resembling a wolf, pounced on him and began tearing at his body.

"Get away from me, get away from me, you beast!" Bao Tiao struggled incessantly, crawling towards the passage like a dog.

But the creature pressing down on him was as big as a calf, and his struggles were futile. He was quickly dragged back, and in the midst of the biting, an arm was forcibly torn off his body.

"Ah!" Bao Tiao let out a pig-like scream after his arm was torn off, rolling on the ground in pain.

"Pah! Your blood stinks just like you." The crimson creature flung the torn-off arm aside, speaking in a human voice as it crouched down, preparing to pounce.

Behind it, Shen Ye and Tifa had caught up, while Alice carefully protected Emina, following closely behind the two.

"Wow, this big dog can actually talk!" Tifa exclaimed in surprise upon hearing the red creature speak human language.

"You wretched humans, look closely, I'm not a dog." The crimson creature turned its head and glared fiercely at Tifa, baring its teeth at her.

"What else could it be but a dog?" Tifa asked, puzzled.

“I am…” The crimson creature paused for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it didn’t understand what species it was. So it said fiercely, “I am the guardian of the planet, Crimson Thirteen.”

"In the end, he's still just a dog."

Of course, Tifa didn't say these words, because she and Shen Ye were frowning as they watched a blond man slowly walk towards them, followed by two black hounds and a large group of Turks members.

"Hojo, you look really pathetic right now!" Rufus kicked Hojo's body upright, looking at him with a half-smile.

"President, save me." Hojo, pale from losing a lot of blood, grabbed Rufus's trouser leg with his only remaining hand, his groveling and begging look making him look even more like a dog than Red XIII.

"Of course I'll save you, since you're a high-ranking member of Shinra!" Rufus said insincerely, then took a step back, freeing himself from Hojo's grasp, and looked at Shen Ye and Tifa, as well as Alice behind them.

“The mess my damn father left behind is really giving me a headache!” Rufus shook his head and then raised his shotgun.

"Catch them."

"Yes!"

The Tux members behind Rufus responded in unison. Although some of them were already sweating profusely after seeing Shen Ye, they could not refuse the new president's order. They could only cross Rufus and rush towards Shen Ye and Tifa together with the two black hounds he brought.

Shen Ye coldly stared at them, raised his revolver, and fired a barrage of bullets and Nen waves at them. Unlike the monsters developed by Hojo that fought almost without any thought and relied entirely on instinct, humans could dodge. In the corridor wide enough to accommodate two cars side by side, the members of the TAX used various methods to nimbly dodge the Nen waves.

Even so, many members of the Turks were still hit and blasted into a cloud of blood mist by the violent energy.

Amidst what sounded like terrified screams, the members of TAX rushed in front of Shen Ye, brandishing various weapons and launching a fierce attack on him.

Although Alice behind them also used magic to help Shen Ye, as more and more Shinra soldiers climbed up to the sixty-sixth floor, Shen Ye and Tifa gradually felt the pressure.

Just then, another group of Shinra special forces appeared on the 66th floor, led by none other than Scarlett.

"You're late." Rufus frowned and glanced at Scarlett. He hadn't seen her all night, and she only came when he was about to win. She really didn't respect him, the new president.

But Scarlett shook her head and chuckled, saying, "No, we've come at the perfect time."

Then, she raised her hand and shouted, "Kill them all, leave no one alive!"

Immediately, the Shinra special forces brought by Scarlett launched an attack on Rufus and the members of the Turks.

However, in the midst of the chaotic battle between the two groups, no one noticed that Hojo had disappeared...

……

Chapter 216! Daughter? And yet another Sephiroth

(I got drunk last night, *covers face*)

……

"I can't die, I can't die yet, my research isn't finished, my experiment isn't successful yet."

In the deepest part of Hojo's research lab on the 68th floor, Hojo walked like a madman to a corpse entangled in countless instruments.

The corpse in front of him was enormous, like a giant, but its physical features indicated that it was a woman.

And she is none other than Sephiroth and Cloud's "mother," Jenova—the corpse that Shinra discovered in ancient ruins.

Hojo looked at Genova, who had gone mad. He quickly entered a line of numbers on the control panel, and a huge metal culture chamber in the instrument opened its door.

Inside the hatch was a woman, similarly entangled in countless instruments.

Her figure is perfect, and her appearance is so beautiful that no one can find a single flaw.

If you look closely at her appearance, you'll find that she does bear a slight resemblance to Alice.

In fact, this was his second "daughter".

It was also during his initial suspicion that after Sephiroth's death, he used Jenova's cells and Ivora's mother's cells to cultivate a "daughter" to replace Sephiroth.

And her name is Ifarna.

The only pity is that this "daughter" used to replace Sephiroth showed no signs of consciousness no matter what instruments were used to examine her, as if she were a soulless shell, which Hojo always found very strange.

But after seeing Sephiroth last time, he suddenly realized that the reason her "daughter" had no mind was perhaps because Jenova only allowed one offspring who could think for himself to exist.

So he came up with a new idea: to use a device to transfer someone else's consciousness into this walking corpse.

He conducted countless experiments for this purpose, but the few successful cases turned him into a madman within a few days due to the massive amount of information brought about by the dual consciousness.
