Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

"Has that driver gone mad?" Fabiola exclaimed.

But Shen Ye and Robert could see very clearly that the person driving was not the driver, but a person with a ferocious face.

At that moment, Shen Ye had only one thought in his mind: "I have to save him."

He then immediately rushed out of the hut, trying to catch up with the SUV.

But just as the three rushed out of the hut, a dozen villagers, armed with pitchforks and sickles, suddenly jumped out of the tall grass around the hut. Their eyes glowed red, and their expressions were ferocious as they slowly approached them.

Upon seeing them, Shen Ye and his two companions raised their guns and opened fire. Since they had obtained a large amount of ammunition from Shen Hua beforehand, they did not need to conserve ammunition like in a game. After a burst of intense gunfire, all the villagers fell down.

However, all of these villagers have Plaka parasites in their bodies. Although the current rate of Plaka parasite outbreaks is not high, nearly half of the villagers still crawled up with sickle-shaped tentacles on their heads.

Unlike the subservient parasites Shen Ye and his companions encountered on the train, these parasitized villagers were more aggressive and moved faster. After the parasites inside them exploded, they immediately attacked the three of them, and their bodies were also more resistant to attacks.

Fortunately, all three were top-notch marksmen. Facing the parasites that rushed towards them at breakneck speed, they took them down with just one volley of shots.

After dealing with the parasitized villagers, Shen Ye led Robert and Fabiola on a mad dash into the village. He had played both the original and remake versions of Resident Evil 4 and was very familiar with the village's terrain. It didn't take them long to reach the vicinity of the village square.

But they were too late. The driver's body was being hung on a giant tree in the center of the square by a group of villagers using iron hooks, while other villagers were placing wood around the corpse, which looked like another "sacrifice".

Besides, Shen Ye also saw a corpse in the corner of the square, the body in a fighting stance, which was obviously the policeman who was burned after death in the game.

However, to Shen Ye's surprise, the driver was still alive. After being hung on the iron hook, he let out a chilling scream.

Shen Ye sighed, then snorted coldly, and led Robert and Fabiola out of their cover with their guns raised, firing as they advanced toward the center of the square.

On their way here, the three men switched to long guns—AK74Us that Balalaika had provided them with, complete with 100-round drum magazines. Although 5.45 caliber bullets have always been criticized for not being as destructive as 7.62 caliber bullets, when faced with parasitized villagers who felt no pain, the rolling motion that occurred after a small-caliber bullet hit flesh perfectly compensated for the lack of destructive power. Villagers who were knocked down by them were not so easy to get back up.

Under the fierce fire of three long guns equipped with 100-round drum magazines, dozens of villagers gathered in the center of the square fell down in an orderly fashion like wheat being harvested. Even those who tried to get up were quickly brought down again by a few long bursts of fire.

After eliminating all the villagers in the village square, Shen Ye instructed Robert and Fabiola to be aware of their surroundings. Then, he walked up to the driver who was hanging on the iron hook and lifted him down.

The driver was barely breathing. Shen Ye tried to help him, but couldn't stop the blood flowing from his chest wound, so he had to give him an injection of adrenaline.

Not long after the injection, the driver opened his eyes. Seeing that it was Shen Ye, he said with difficulty, "I... originally... wanted to wait for you..."

The iron hook pierced his chest and damaged his lungs, so he was spitting out bubbly blood as he spoke.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have dragged you into this," Shen Ye sighed.

The driver shook his head: "Guest...you've paid..."

At this point, he pointed to his jacket pocket: "Wallet...address..."

Shen Ye immediately pulled a wallet from his shirt pocket, opened it, and saw a family photo. He then understood what Shen Ye meant.

“I will send someone to deliver the reward you deserve to your family,” Shen Ye said.

But the driver did not respond; he had closed his eyes forever.

Looking at the driver's body, Shen Ye sighed again, then carried the body to the car parked at the entrance of the square, and continued to move deeper into the village with Robert and Fabiola.

Chapter 367! Ada Reunited

……

Although the mysterious village is a village, under the management of the village chief Mondez and Sadler, it is surprisingly large, with not only fishing and animal husbandry, but also its own quarry and factory. On the other side of the fish farm, there is also an ancient family's castle and manor.

With so many industries and such a large area, a large population is naturally needed to operate them, so the number of villagers living here is also astonishing.

However, after the discovery of the Plaka parasite, the village's main industries have been largely abandoned, especially the factory, which has been completely abandoned.

At this moment, Shen Ye is facing a choice. He is at a crossroads with two paths in front of him. One path leads to the village church, which is full of traps and mechanisms, and Leon and the others may be there. The other path leads to the abandoned factory in the village, but it will pass by the village of Mondez's residence. According to the plot, Ada should appear there.

Although it was called a choice, Shen Ye hardly hesitated for long. After deciding on the direction, he stepped directly onto the road leading to the abandoned factory in the village.

The three of them hadn't walked far when they saw a slightly more luxurious house among a row of simple wooden huts on the side of the road. Shen Ye looked up at the glass of the house but didn't find any marks from bullets.

"Could it be that they haven't arrived here yet?" Shen Ye wondered.

However, the plot has changed. Not only Leon and his group are heading to the village, but Chris has also joined them. The two main male protagonists of the Resident Evil series are together, which is not as simple as one plus one. If they really fight, they might even be able to take down Wesker.

Moreover, Ada and Leon's relationship is currently limited to acquaintances, far from being familiar. Even if Leon gets into trouble, even if Ada does it for Shen Ye's sake, given her personality, she probably wouldn't do something like she would in the game to save him.

With that in mind, Shen Ye decided to trust his unusually good luck and continued towards the abandoned factory.

As it turned out, Lady Luck was indeed on his side. This time, the three of them hadn't gone far when they heard a barrage of gunfire.

“It sounds like a submachine gun,” Robert said with certainty after listening for a while.

"He's a seasoned shooter, with long-range shots," Fabiola chimed in.

“That’s Ada, no doubt.” Shen Ye knew Ada very well. She was an agent and a spy, so she liked weapons like submachine guns, which had high firepower and could be carried around. Just like when she was in the Raccoon City Police Department, her first choice was the MP5 submachine gun, which was more suitable for indoor use, rather than the M16, which had far greater power than submachine guns. After all, compared to submachine guns, the M16 was too long for indoor use, making it inconvenient to draw and aim.

Since Ada was in the abandoned factory, Shen Ye immediately quickened his pace.

Behind him, Roberta was somewhat displeased. Hearing the name Ada reminded her of the time in Roanapura, when Shen Ye spent more time with Ada than she and Levi combined. Seeing Shen Ye's eagerness now, she couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

She had never received such treatment before.

Speaking of which, she would never compete with Tifa and the others for this. She was very confident in front of them. Although she was dressed in a maid outfit, she always had the air of a big sister. At home, apart from Shen Ye, she always had the final say because she arrived earlier than Tifa and the others.

However, she clearly lacked confidence in front of Jill and Ada, and she also knew that Shen Ye was a sentimental person, and that his feelings for Jill and Ada were significantly different from his feelings for her and Tifa.

But this is also something that makes Roberta satisfied, at least her man won't forget his old love when he has a new one.

Lost in thought, Robert and Fabiola followed Shen Ye to the vicinity of the abandoned factory. The sound of the submachine gun became clearer, but the firing rate decreased significantly. It seemed that the gun's owner was conserving ammunition, or perhaps the situation had become so urgent that even reloading had become difficult, so they could only try to reduce the frequency of firing.

Shen Ye also sensed something was wrong with the gunshots. He sped up again and ran wildly into the factory, ignoring the villagers who tried to stop them along the way, knowing that Robert and Fabiola would take care of them.

After passing a row of wooden huts that were probably prepared for the workers, Shen Ye and his two companions arrived at the entrance of the factory, which was also filled with all sorts of wooden huts.

Just then, a woman in a red dress ran out of the factory exit. However, she seemed to be injured, and her steps were unsteady. She even had difficulty turning around to shoot the villagers who were chasing her.

Upon seeing that red figure he had longed for, Shen Ye immediately called out Ada's name and rushed over.

Hearing a familiar voice behind her, Ada, who was retreating, didn't take it seriously, thinking she was hallucinating again.

After all, she had been injured in a fight with a man in a long robe not long ago, and she had been experiencing both visual and auditory hallucinations. Even when she was fighting in the abandoned factory, she saw Shen Ye appear in front of her. In her dazed state, she wanted to hug Shen Ye. If it weren't for the pain from her wounds that brought her back to her senses, she would have almost fallen into the arms of a villager wielding a chainsaw.

So when she heard Shen Ye's voice behind her, she only thought it was because her body was getting weaker and her hallucinations were getting worse.

"I still love him too much. Even now, all I can think about is him. Maybe I should really go with him, but it seems like there's no chance now?"

A bitter smile appeared on Ada's lips. She was getting weaker and weaker, and she barely had the strength to pull the trigger. After she used all her strength to shoot down a villager who rushed at her, she could no longer hold on. Her feet slipped, and she fell backward.

However, just when she thought she was going to fall heavily to the ground, a pair of large hands wrapped around her waist, and then her head rested on a chest that smelled familiar.

Ada paused for a moment, then completely lost consciousness.

Seeing Ada faint in his arms, Shen Ye picked her up horizontally. Robert and Fabiola beside him kept shooting at the villagers who approached them, and then retreated under Shen Ye's command.

The two AK74Us equipped with drum magazines displayed exceptionally fierce firepower, and the nearby villagers fell one after another after being hit. At this moment, Fabiola took advantage of the time to change the drum magazines, pulled out a grenade from the backpack behind him, pulled the pin, and threw it.

The shrapnel from the grenade explosion knocked down more than a dozen villagers, but more villagers came out of the factory. However, the three men had already taken advantage of the smoke from the explosion to get far away from them.

……

Chapter 368! A Battle of Wits

……

The group of people evacuating from the abandoned factory area did not notice that a figure appeared on the top of the factory as they left.

The figure was dressed in a well-tailored suit and wore sunglasses even late at night; needless to say, he was Wesker.

Watching the group gradually disappear into the distance, a glint flashed in Wesker's eyes behind his sunglasses as he muttered to himself, "That guy, he always shows up at such a coincidence."

He had been keeping an eye on Ada. When Ada was injured, he originally wanted to help, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided to wait until Ada could no longer hold on before helping her. In this way, he could also make this woman, whom he could no longer understand, owe him a favor.

Just as he was about to make his move, Shen Ye and his two companions appeared. Wesker was surprised by Shen Ye's appearance, but he was also wary. Although they had joined forces to deal with Alexia in Roanapur last time, that was only temporary. The two sides were still enemies and rivals.

"Looks like I'll have to do it myself now. Sigh, I wonder what he's up to here. I hope he won't ruin things for me!"

Wesker's expression darkened slightly, and he seemed to have some doubts, but then he jumped off from the other side and disappeared into the twilight in the blink of an eye.

……

On the other side, Shen Ye carried Ida to an empty wooden house and carefully placed her on the bed.

However, just as he was about to get up and leave to pour her a glass of water himself, Ida, who was still asleep, seemed to sense something and suddenly murmured, "Shen, don't go..."

Hearing Ada's murmur, Shen Ye, who had just stood up, immediately sat back down on the edge of the bed and gently took Ada's hand: "I didn't leave."

As if she heard his voice, Ada's tightly furrowed brows relaxed due to her injuries, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on Shen Ye's hand.

Shen Ye had never seen Ida so vulnerable before. He patted Ida's hand, glanced back at Robert, who nodded expressionlessly, and then turned and left the bedroom.

A short while later, she returned with a glass of water.

Robert handed the water to Shen Ye and went out again. The mysterious village was fraught with danger, and she and Fabiola had to keep an eye on things outside to prevent the villagers from discovering them.

Of course, more importantly, he wanted to leave the two of them some space alone. She was a kind and understanding head maid, and she had to be generous.

Roberta gently closed the bedroom door as she left, and the bedroom became instantly isolated from the world, eerily quiet.

Temperatures in Europe are already quite low in the second half of the year, especially at night. Even in the bedroom, you can feel a chill. Perhaps feeling a bit cold, Ida gradually curled up.
