The final last straw for me was the Nemesis seemed to be active a long time ago based on the corpse's condition. Maybe Umbrella Corporation already ordered it to return.
Or maybe the rival company had dealt with it.
Anyway, the police station event had passed. Which meant Jill Valentine had left the city, or maybe she still remained? This was a viral outbreak, right?
I wanted to meet her so bad.
When I played Resident Evil, she was one of my favorite characters beside Ada Wong. They were so cool, and beautiful. And also, the fact she had survived the zombie outbreak in Racoon City was amazing.
First of all, I had to check the sewer.
Dr. William Birkin should be trying to hand over G-Virus to the US government. I didn't think that would be a good idea, since this outbreak happened due to rats being infected with the virus.
I was too late to stop it.
And because this outbreak happened after the mansion incident, Wesker should've infected himself with the experimental virus that could make him capable of doing inhuman feats, such as dodging bullets or moving really fast.
To combat him, I might need to risk myself by using the serum I could now buy from the system Shop.
Anyway, I got distracted again. Holding my revolver with full ammos in hand, I headed inside deeper.
A report arrived at the quarantine zone in Chicago.
Raccoon City had been overrun by the zombies. Many civilians had died or been infected during this time and the city was basically lost to the infection.
Military forces had tried their best to contain it, but to no avail.
Now, there were only two options for the people living there; either leave the city, or die with the rest of the population. Some of them even chose to kill themselves instead.
Wesker read the report while sipping his coffee. His expression was emotionless.
This man, Albert Wesker, was a part of a company called the Umbrella Corporation. He was assigned to S.T.A.R.S as the commander, and also worked with a government organization.
Now, he sat at his desk in his office. A stack of papers was on top of it.
Birkins had gone too far with his experiment. Not only that he had caused the outbreak of a biohazard, but also the death of many people. All because he refused to hand over his G-Virus samples to Umbrella Corp and tried to make a deal with the government instead.
The company would never accept that, of course.
And to prevent Birkins from selling his creation, they ordered him to move S.T.A.R.S to the mansion and stop the experiment there.
But he had failed and was too late.
'Is this the time to leave?'
The future of Umbrella Corporation seemed to differ from before. It had fallen down so hard after the strange zombie outbreak.
This world was strange. But he wasn't the only one who had noticed it. The rival corporation had also started moving to gain an upper hand in the competition for world domination.
With the US military at their back, it wouldn't be surprising if they succeeded soon enough. They had already begun to move to capture Dr. Birkin and the G-Virus he created.
Wesker had to secure his position in this new world if he wanted to move forward.
He knew Birkin would be trying to hand over a G-Virus sample to the government. And if that happened then the whole plan of using S.T.A.R.S as bait would go down the drain. He would lose all his men, including himself, for nothing.
His life was on the line.
And he knew this wasn't the end. This world would soon be consumed by chaos. The zombie infection would spread and the entire country would be destroyed.
'No. It might even reach the whole world.'
The virus wasn't only in America.
A global outbreak of zombies had already happened. Only that some countries managed to contain it quickly while some failed and were destroyed by it. America was one of the successful ones.
And the world would soon fall into a new age, an era of survival.
That's why Wesker needed to act fast.
'Soon enough, my power will be unleashed.' He smirked. 'And I'll take over everything.'
As a man who had prepared himself for a long time, he knew what to do next.
Firstly, he would have to go to the laboratory where Birkins was working and take the sample of G-Virus before it's too late. He would inject it into his own body and gain a power beyond human's capability.
He had already done it, in fact, but it wasn't enough.
Evolution was just around the corner. A new body, new power, and new authority!
Opening his drawer, he took out the parasite given by the boy. This was the Dominant species of the parasite.
If a person was injected by the serum made from it, the host would have its body remodeled and be reborn as a new life. The new form was stronger, faster, and tougher.
Not only that, it allowed one to control the Subordinate species within people. One could create their own army with this!
Wesker's smirk got wider as he looked at the worm-like creature. The parasite moved around the container like it was trying to find an escape route. It seemed restless, agitated.
'This power is perfect for me.' He thought. 'And the serum is also perfect for me to gain power and conquer this world!'
An evil chuckle echoed within the room.
