Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

System: "Now."

Before the sound had faded from Shen Ye's mind, a series of words flashed before his eyes.

"After the three-second countdown ends, the teleportation will begin. Please prepare, host."

"Hey, wait a minute, let me put on a coat..."

"three."

"two."

"one."

"Begin transmission."

As soon as the system notification disappeared, a white light flashed in the bedroom, and then Shen Ye lost all consciousness.

Chapter 2! Welcome to Raccoon City

……

I don’t know how long it took.

Shen Ye opened his eyes. The headache and dizziness brought on by the teleportation made him frown, but he still tried to look around and found himself lying on a park bench. The scenery around him seemed a little blurry, but the real touch of the bench made him realize that what had just happened was not an illusion.

"I really time-traveled."

Shen Ye sat up straight, looked around at the scenery, and clenched his fists with some excitement.

But soon, an unspeakable panic spread through my heart.

Although being able to travel into the story world was indeed his dream, the unfamiliar environment and unpredictable ending made him somewhat uneasy when it actually happened.

Of course, this was just a natural emotion that arises when people are in the unknown. After taking a few deep breaths, Shen Ye's sense of panic slowly disappeared.

After resting on the bench for a while, and once the headache and dizziness subsided, Shen Ye stood up, ready to leave and explore this story world.

But just then, the translucent light curtain reappeared in front of him.

This time, the screen displayed the plot of his world and the tasks he needed to complete.

……

[Story World: Resident Evil]

[Genre: Sci-Fi Thriller/Horror]

[Synopsis: Under the construction of the Umbrella Corporation, Raccoon City has become a new industrial city, especially in the field of biopharmaceuticals. However, the unscrupulous development of biotechnology and the power struggles within the Umbrella Corporation have caused a terrifying virus to spread around Raccoon City.]

On July 23, 1998, the Blavat Squad of the STARS, an elite police unit in Raccoon City, was ordered to conduct an investigation in the Arklay Mountains and subsequently lost contact with the Raccoon City Police Department.

On July 24th, the Alpha team from the STARS squad set off for the Arklay Mountains to investigate the reason for the disappearance of the Bulava team...

And you, a traveler from a mysterious Eastern country, have unwittingly become involved in this incident...

……

After reading the plot summary and mission, Shen Ye was delighted. He hadn't expected the first world to be the Resident Evil world, which was known as the beginner's village of the infinite flow genre. Although the plot summary suggested that this world was based on the game version, the game version's plot was richer and more thrilling than the movie version.

Moreover, judging from the mission requirements, there seems to be a great deal of freedom, and as the system said, there are no mandatory requirements. In other words, if he wants, he can even leave Raccoon City right now.

This is entirely possible.

But he wouldn't do that. After all, he'd finally gotten the chance to experience the story, and he didn't want to give it up so easily. Besides, just like the system's last prompt, he did have a wish he hadn't expressed, so he wouldn't simply complete it like that.

"However, on the other hand, although Resident Evil is known as the beginner village of the infinite flow genre, it is still quite dangerous. If I want to get involved, I must be fully prepared, and the most important thing is to obtain enough weapons and equipment." Shen Ye pondered as he walked out of the park.

However, both the terrifying BOWs and the Umbrella security soldiers that will appear in the future can threaten his life.

Moreover, after the mansion incident, the T virus, which spread throughout the city, made the infected citizens and the ubiquitous virus even more dangerous and deadly.

Just then, Shen Ye left the park and entered a street.

There were many pedestrians on the street, most of whom were shopping or working as usual.

Although there have been several deaths of tourists and hikers around Raccoon City in recent months, the mayor and police chief of Raccoon City have managed to keep the situation relatively calm and avoid causing major chaos.

This is why Raccoon City later became a hellish place. If the leaders of Raccoon City had not accepted bribes from Umbrella, the damage would likely not have been so severe.

"Hey!"

Standing by the roadside, Shen Ye looked at the passersby and felt sorry for these innocent citizens, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only sigh softly.

Fortunately, Shen Ye's frustration didn't last long. If some things can't be changed, then he can only let nature take its course. What he needs to do now is figure out how to participate in the plot that's about to unfold.

The Mansion Incident.

However, he needs to prepare some things before participating in the storyline.

First, he needs to get enough weapons. Sufficient weapons are a necessity for survival in Raccoon City. He might be able to kill zombies with his bare hands, but he definitely can't take down the Tyrant with his bare hands. He's not the protagonist in the game, so he doesn't have any special abilities.

Secondly, he had to find the exact location of the mansion, since this wasn't a game; there was no mini-map or text prompts.

Of course, compared to acquiring weapons, finding the location of the mansion was not difficult.

When Shen Ye first arrived on this street, he asked a passerby for the time. It was only a little past four in the afternoon, and there was still some time before the Alpha team set off.

He can easily find the approximate location of the mansion by following the helicopter carrying the Alpha team.

The premise is that he can keep up, but that's a problem to consider after he gets the gun.

As for how to get the weapons... Shen Ye patted his pockets, then shook his head helplessly.

Accustomed to using mobile payments, he didn't have a single penny of cash on him. But even if he had money, this was America, and RMB wouldn't work here. Even if someone was willing to accept it, he couldn't very well use a stack of banknotes from 2000 in 1998.

"It seems we have no choice but to use special methods."

After thinking for a while, Shen Ye had an idea, and a plan to get guns quickly formed in his mind.

That is, he intends to pursue an ancient profession, one that requires virtually no skill or cost.

Robbers.

Of course, he didn't intend to rob passersby to buy a gun; that would be too much trouble, so he planned to skip that step altogether.

He planned to rob the gun shop directly.

Chapter 3! Preparation

There are so many gun shops in the United States that you can find one just by walking around on the street, and you can even find gun shops in some supermarkets.

However, Shen Ye did not randomly choose a gun shop to implement his plan, as that would be too risky. After walking through several streets and carefully comparing multiple gun shops, he finally decided on a gun shop that was relatively easier to approach.

There were no security cameras in front of the gun shop. Although the location wasn't exactly remote, it could even be considered bad, since the Raccoon City Police Department was not far from the gun shop. Fortunately, there weren't many pedestrians passing by, and it was dark. In addition, due to the recent murders in the area, there were no Raccoon City police patrolling here, making it easier for the perpetrators to succeed.

Having chosen his target, Shen Ye didn't go in directly. There were quite a few customers inside the gun shop, so he could only hide in a corner opposite the shop and peek in every now and then.

After waiting for about half an hour, when it was getting dark, the customers in the store finally left. Shen Ye looked around to make sure no one was paying attention before walking towards the gun shop and pushing the door open.

As soon as he pushed open the door of the gun shop, a middle-aged, burly white man standing behind the counter enthusiastically spread his hands towards him:

"Welcome, my esteemed guest. Welcome to Robert Kendo's gun shop, the best gun shop in Raccoon City. We're sure to find something you like."

The enthusiastic gun shop owner made Shen Ye suddenly feel a little embarrassed. As he was wondering if he should go to another shop, he suddenly felt that the name Robert Kendo sounded familiar.

After squinting and thinking for a moment, Shen Ye remembered and muttered to himself, "So it's that gun shop owner, the one who participated in the STARS gun bidding. I remember he has a daughter."

Although Robert Kendo was just a supporting character, even though he was a minor character in the original Resident Evil games, his storyline was quite touching, so Shen Ye had some impression of him and felt a bit of goodwill towards him.

However, despite his goodwill, he still had to take action; he didn't have time to choose a new target.

"Consider it an advance payment," Shen Ye thought to himself. "Once the mansion incident is over, I'll find a way to help him and his daughter leave safely."

With this thought in mind, Shen Ye felt much more relaxed. He walked to the counter and, like an ordinary customer, first looked around at the gun shop's merchandise before saying to Robert, "Hey, buddy, although I've always been against violence, I desperately need a weapon to save my life right now..."

“I understand what you mean, young man. These recent events have caused quite a stir.” Before Shen Ye could finish speaking, Robert Kendo smiled understandingly. He glanced at Shen Ye, then took a shotgun from under the container and placed it in front of Shen Ye: “M870, Remington’s most classic shotgun. It’s the best weapon for self-defense. Believe me, every American has one behind their bedroom door, ready to blow an intruder’s head off at any time.”

“This is exactly what I need. It’s so beautiful.” Shen Ye nodded, looking extremely surprised.

“Of course, she can be your closest person, and she’s more reliable than your wife.” Robert winked at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye gave Robert a deep look, nodded, but said nothing. Then, pretending to be a novice with little experience in using firearms, he handed the gun back: "Um... could you teach me how to use it? You know, I've always hated the gun association, so I've never learned how to use them."

“Of course.” Robert Kendo was a warm and welcoming man, especially towards his guests. He took the shotgun, leaning forward slightly towards Shen Ye, and pointed to the handguard beneath the gun: “This is the handguard, which is the feeding mechanism. You just need to…”
