Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

While others might not understand, Mature and Weiss knew what he was trying to say.

"Who knows? Maybe he's lost his mind." Vice shrugged, speaking ill of Rugal maliciously, then looked at Kagura Manki, who was frowning at her and Mature, and gave her a smile that Kagura Manki found extremely wicked.

This made Kagura Manki frown even more. After thinking for a moment, she whispered to Shen Ye, "Shen-kun, let's not go. I have a feeling that this guy named Rugal has some ill intentions, including them."

Kagura Manki pointed at Mature and Vice. The Three Sacred Treasures family naturally disliked the Eight Orochi. Even though Shen Ye said that they, like Shermie, had given up on their destiny, she still didn't trust them.

This also made the Kagura sisters wary of Rugal, who had never shown his face. After all, someone who recruits two members of the Eight Orochi to do his bidding must not be a good person.

"I'd love to go." Shen Ye shook his head. He really wanted to figure out what Rugal was up to... Couldn't he see that Rugal was no match for him?

"Alright then, let's go together." Kagura Manki could not possibly object to Shen Ye's idea; the saying "a woman follows her husband wherever he goes" was perfectly embodied in her.

At this moment, Mai Zhu shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, Rugal only invited Shen."

"what?"

"Then we won't go."

The Kagura sisters spoke one after the other.

But Shen Ye said, "One person is fine."

Seeing that the Kagura sisters still wanted to say something, Shen Ye continued, "Don't you believe in my strength? Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Hearing this, the two sisters had no choice but to stop trying to persuade him and watched Shen Ye leave with Mai Zhuo and Wei Si.

Meanwhile, Mai Shiranui and the others looked at them with complete bewilderment. They couldn't understand why it seemed like there was danger when they were just going to receive an award.

Chapter 719! The True Power of Orochi?

……

"What exactly are Mature, Vice, and Rugal trying to do?"

On the way to the port, Shen Ye asked Mature and Vice, who were sitting in the front row.

"Didn't we already tell you? We didn't know either," Mai Zhuo said without turning her head as she drove.

Weiss, in the passenger seat, said, "But this guy hasn't shown up since watching your match yesterday. He only called me and Mature after the match results were announced today, asking us to take you to see him."

"I see!" Shen Ye frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.

Rugal is just an average guy, someone who can't even beat Kyoto Kusanagi. No matter what tricks or schemes he uses, he can't possibly pose a threat to Rugal.

After a while, seeing that they were still some distance from the port, Shen Ye asked again, "By the way, have you asked Rugal about NESTS?"

Weiss glanced back at him and shrugged. "I asked, and he said he'd never heard of it."

"Never heard of him? Isn't he a famous black market dealer? He should be very well-informed, right?"

"So I suspect he's lying; he doesn't trust me or Mature at all."

That's true. If it weren't for Sharmi and Goenitz vouching for me, I wouldn't have believed you... although I still don't quite believe you now...

With a sigh, Shen Ye said, "It seems I can only ask him in person. When I see him, I'll take action immediately."

"Then remember to hold back a bit, don't kill him. He couldn't even withstand one move from Goenitz."

"I know what I'm doing," Shen Ye nodded.

As they were saying this, they soon arrived at the port where Lucar's private aircraft carrier was docked.

After getting out of the car, Mai Zhuo and Wei Si led Shen Ye through the gangway into the aircraft carrier. Under their expert guidance, they arrived at the door of the room that used to be the captain's cabin.

The remodeled captain's cabin is several times larger than a normal captain's cabin, covering at least several hundred square meters. However, without the remodel, it would be impossible to house so many of Rugal's "collections".

However, Shen Ye tried to sense the walls of the captain's cabin, wondering if something had been installed inside, but he couldn't penetrate them at all. This made him sigh that Rugal, as expected of a black market merchant, was indeed highly vigilant.

bang bang bang...

At that moment, Mai Zhuo gently knocked on the door.

“Mr. Lucar, we have brought the man.”

As she spoke, Mai Zhuo turned her head and winked at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye nodded, then held his breath and waited for the door to open, preparing to rush in and take down Rugal in one fell swoop.

Soon, a deep male voice came from the speaker hanging on the door: "Come in!"

As the sound faded, the door opened from the inside.

The entrance door was narrow, and the three of them could only enter one at a time. Shen Ye was the first to rush in, followed closely by Mai Zhuo and Wei Si.

However, when Shen Ye went inside, he noticed that the door to the captain's cabin was several times thicker than the doors of a normal aircraft carrier captain's cabin, which caught his attention.

However, the most important thing right now is to capture Rugal, so he didn't think too much about it and looked directly at a desk facing the door. Behind the desk was an executive chair with its back to them.

However, at this moment, Shen Ye did not sense the presence of a fourth person in the captain's cabin besides them.

Shen Ye immediately shouted, "He's not here! This is a trap!"

"As expected of the champion of this competition, you guessed it."

The deep voice sounded again, but this time it came from all directions... The room had been filled with numerous megaphones.

At the same time, a loud bang occurred behind the three of them.

Looking back, the three of them found that the door had closed automatically, and the handwheel behind the door had started to rotate automatically. They could also vaguely hear the sound of the mechanical lock engaging and locking.

Weiss rushed forward, trying to turn her hand back, but as soon as her hand touched it, a powerful electric current repelled her.

But Weiss tried several more times, unwilling to give up, but the result was always the same.

"Don't bother, Miss Weiss. The high voltage up there is enough to electrocute hundreds of elephants... But I have to admire your physique; you've been electrocuted so many times and you're still fine," Rugal's mocking voice rang out.

"Damn it, Rugal, you bastard..." Weiss shook her hands, which were numb from the electric shock, and cursed at a camera on the door.

But Rugal's voice came out calmly: "Of course I know I'm a bastard... How could I be involved in arms dealing if I weren't a bastard?"

Lucarton paused for a moment, then said in a teasing tone, "However, it seems that Miss Weiss, one of the cruel and bloodthirsty Eight Generals, who possesses the power of the Great Serpent's Death, called me a bastard. It seems I really am thoroughly evil! Hahahaha..."

As he continued, Rugal burst into wild laughter.

Upon hearing Rugal's words, Vice and Mature were taken aback. Then, Vice asked with a cold gaze, "You actually know my identity?"

Rugal stopped laughing, his voice turning icy cold: "I guessed your identities the moment you approached me: Vice, who possesses the power of the Great Serpent, and Mature, who possesses the power of the Great Serpent Beast."

Later, someone told me your true identities, and that's when I was certain.

"But come to think of it, you Eight Orochi Warriors must have reincarnated and made yourselves stupid. Have you forgotten that Goenitz gave me the power of Orochi? And your approach to me was simply to observe what would happen after I obtained the power of Orochi, wasn't it?"

"Damn it..." Vice clenched her fists in frustration, but she had indeed forgotten that people with the power of Orochi could sense each other. However, the main reason was that Goenitz had only given Rugal a drop of Orochi blood, which meant that she and Mature had never considered Rugal as one of them.

Unlike the easily angered Vice, Mature calmly asked, "You just said someone told you about Vice and my identities. Who was that person?"

Rugal chuckled: "Although you will die here, I'm sorry, I don't want to tell you."

"However..." Rugal suddenly changed his tone, then said coldly, "But I can tell you something else: Orochi is about to be resurrected. Isn't this what you all want to see most? Now that I'm telling you, you should be able to die in peace, right?"

"Don't worry... Heh, even if the giant serpent revives, you'll be the first to die. It has no affection for humans," Mature said with a sneer.

"Of course I know that, but we have our own way of solving this problem. It's a pity you won't be able to see it. Perhaps you'll be able to see it when you awaken in your next reincarnation." Rugal's voice became lighter: "Even if you recover all your power by then, I won't need to use this method to deal with you anymore. At that time, I will directly use the true power of Orochi to send you back into reincarnation."

Upon hearing this, Mature and Vice were stunned again, while Shen Ye frowned... The real power of Orochi?

……

(Hmm, there should still be several dozen more chapters of this world's storyline... but this is just the beginning, there's so much to write about.)

Chapter 720! Martial God's Powerful Kick

……

Is there a distinction between the real and fake power of Orochi?

wrong……

Shen Ye suddenly realized that the true power of Orochi that Rugal was referring to was probably the power of Orochi itself, rather than the power of Orochi that the Eight Orochi Warriors possessed only a portion of.

However, how could Rugal be so confident that he could withstand the backlash from Orochi's power? You know, Goenitz only gave him a drop of blood, and later he exploded from overuse.

Besides, he's not one of the Eight Orochi Warriors. Even if he wanted to use Orochi's power, he couldn't be the vessel for it. Moreover, if he were the vessel, his consciousness would be taken over by Orochi, and he wouldn't be himself anymore. So why say that?

Shen Ye wasn't the only one puzzled; Mai Zhuo and Wei Si were equally confused.

Moreover, the three of them also learned from Rugal's words that he was currently cooperating with an organization; otherwise, no matter how well Rugal hid himself, Mature and Vice would have known everything.

"The organization you're collaborating with is called NESTS, right?"

At this moment, Shen Ye looked up at a camera in the room and asked in a calm tone.

"Oh, so even you know about NESTS... Hehe, I see. Judging from how familiar you were when you boarded the ship, your relationship must be quite special. Logically speaking, the Eight Heroes should have never heard of the NESTS organization. These old fogies don't even have time to enjoy life... I think the person who made Mature and Vice ask me about NESTS is you, the champion of this tournament, the first King of Fighters, Mr. Shen Ye."

“It’s me!” Shen Ye nodded, then made a regretful expression: “Speaking of which, when I agreed to let Mature and Vice ask you if you knew anything about the NESTS organization a few days ago, I already had a bad feeling. I always felt that it was a bad move, and now it seems that it was. If Mature and Vice hadn’t asked you, you probably wouldn’t have acted so quickly.”

"You're right. After all, Miss Mature and Miss Vice are both great beauties. I may have had thoughts of pursuing them. Unfortunately, the Eight Orochi don't like humans. What's even more regrettable is that they are about to die." Rugal's cold voice came: "I suddenly envy you a little, Mr. Shen Ye. It seems that you have a good relationship with several of the female fighters participating in this King of Fighters tournament."
