Infinite Terror: I Have a Chat Group
Chapter 8: My First Pot of Gold!
"I think I remember now!"
Just as Matthew Addison was about to lead everyone away, Lin Yu suddenly covered his head and spoke, which surprised Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan and the others, who wondered how Lin Yu dared to change the plot again.
"What did you remember?"
Matthew Addison stopped and asked Lin Yu a question.
This unusual situation made Matthew Addison very uneasy, and he was eager to know more.
"I remember what happened, it was a T-virus leak!"
What is the T-virus?
"The T-virus is a product of research at this base. It is an extremely special virus that can make the dead move."
"But they only move. People or animals infected with the T-virus have lost their reason; only the most primal desire remains: appetite!"
"The T-virus is extremely contagious. It can be transmitted not only through air and water, but anyone injured by a carrier will also quickly transform into a monster that only eats. A few hours ago, after the T-virus leaked from the base, the Flame Queen killed everyone and sealed this place off to prevent the virus from spreading!"
After Lin Yu finished speaking, the mercenaries fell silent. Although they didn't want to believe such an absurd thing, what Rein had just experienced proved that what this Asian man said was very likely true.
"Oh, Ryan, are you alright?"
Upon thinking of Raine, a mercenary remembered that Raine had been injured by those monsters and immediately cried out in concern.
"I...I'm fine!"
Raine said she was fine, but her face was pale. She didn't want to become one of those monsters that only ate people.
"It's best to inject the antidote within ten minutes, otherwise you'll turn into one of those monsters in about thirty minutes."
"Antidote? Where can I find the antidote?"
Matthew Addison immediately inquired.
"It's in the lab, but as for its exact location, I'm afraid we'll have to ask the Flame Queen right now."
Although there was an antidote in the carriage, ten minutes was clearly not enough time to get back, so they had to find the antidote in the laboratory.
"Alright, go back and reactivate the Flame Queen immediately!"
Matthew Addison stopped talking and immediately turned to leave, not wanting to waste a single second.
Seeing that Matthew Addison readily believed him, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He had taken the risk of speaking up, naturally for the sake of the side quest. Since Zheng Zha could get a side quest by saving Matthew Addison, then saving other mercenaries should also get one, especially since Rein had quite a bit of screen time.
As for whether there would be any danger, Lin Yu thought there would be some danger, but not much, because Zheng Zha had already gained Matthew Addison's trust to a certain extent, and the zombies had already appeared. What Lin Yu said could explain what had happened, making it easier for the mercenaries to believe him.
Even if Matthew Addison didn't believe Lin Yu, he wouldn't have shot him like he did Mu Gang. The risk was small, but the reward was large, so he naturally had to give it a try.
Furthermore, if the mercenaries go to find the antidote, the time for the Flame Queen to be reactivated will be delayed, and Lin Yu and the others will not have to face the danger of the crawler attack. It can be said to be a win-win situation. Of course, this is on the premise that the main god does not adjust the time.
......
The group walked outside, but after a few steps, they saw some swaying "people" walking towards them.
"Stop! Or I'll shoot!" A mercenary cocked his gun.
"These monsters have no reason and cannot communicate," Lin Yu said.
The mercenary glanced at Matthew, and seeing Matthew nod, he decisively opened fire, shooting the foremost zombie in the thigh.
After the gunshot, the zombies fell to the ground instantly, but quickly and unsteadily got up. Only then did the mercenaries truly believe that these people had really turned into monsters.
"Attack from the head; these monsters' only weakness is their heads."
Without further hesitation, the mercenaries all aimed at the zombies' brains and began firing. Soon, the zombies in front of them fell to the ground and never got up again.
However, the zombies behind them continued forward, seemingly endless.
"All team members, maintain formation and move towards the Flame Queen," Matthew Addison shouted.
The mercenaries moved while killing zombies. During this time, Matthew Addison even gave Zheng Zha a gun. Well, only Zheng Zha, after all, it was a life-saving favor, which couldn't be compared to a few words. It's not surprising.
The mercenaries had ample firepower and encountered no major dangers along the way. However, the endless zombies created a lot of pressure. Once they reached the Flame Queen and closed the door to the central computer room, keeping the zombies out, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Kaplan reactivated the Flame Queen, and Matthew Addison, without further ado, asked directly where the antidote was.
The Flame Queen remained silent, clearly hoping everyone would die here.
Matthew Addison didn't tolerate her either, pointing a gun directly at the Flame Queen's motherboard and telling her that if she didn't cooperate, he would smash her motherboard. Faced with this threat, the Flame Queen had no choice but to compromise, displaying a map that marked various locations where the antidote was found.
"Flame Queen, the T-virus poses such a huge threat, why was it leaked so easily?"
After the mercenaries finished their questions, Lin Yu asked his own.
Although Matthew Addison didn't know why Lin Yu would suddenly ask this question now, he didn't stop Lin Yu from asking because of Lin Yu's previous behavior.
The moment Lin Yu asked the question, Spencer, who was standing to the side, suddenly had a bad feeling, but he didn't know why, so he could only watch anxiously.
In response to Lin Yu's question, the Flame Queen directly displayed a short video on her computer, showing Spence stealing the T-virus and deliberately leaking it.
"No, it's not..."
Upon seeing this scene, Spencer's pupils contracted, and he immediately retreated in a panic. He finally remembered that he had indeed stolen the T-virus and leaked it, but at this moment he wished he didn't remember.
"asshole!"
Enraged, Ryan pointed her gun at Spencer, wanting to kill the culprit immediately, but she didn't fire directly. Instead, she glanced at Matthew Addison.
Matthew Addison did not stop Ryan; his anger was no less than Ryan's.
Seeing that the captain did not stop him, Ryan did not hesitate and opened fire. After a few shots, Spence, an important figure in the Resident Evil, was riddled with bullets.
At the same time, Lin Yu heard a notification from the main god, informing him that he had obtained a C-level side quest and 2000 reward points.
Well, this gain made Lin Yu quite happy. Before this, Lin Yu had considered what kind of reward he would get for defeating Spence. Theoretically speaking, Spence was more important than Matthew Addison and should have received a B-level or even A-level side quest, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed unlikely.
Zheng Zha's acquisition of the B-level side quest wasn't solely due to saving Matthew Addison; the bigger reason was likely his survival in the Laser Tubes. Simply altering the plot wouldn't likely earn the God of War an extremely generous reward.
While Lin Yu's use of mercenaries to deal with Spencer might significantly alter the plot, the difficulty was indeed not high. It was unlikely that the main god would offer a high reward, so Lin Yu was prepared to only receive a D-level side quest or even just reward points.
Unexpectedly, he was given a C-level side quest and 2000 reward points. How could Lin Yu not be happy?
