The necklace pendant was easily ripped off.
G William extended his still unmutated left hand and slowly opened the necklace pendant's cover, revealing a family photo of their family of three. Annette in the photo had the loving smile of a mother, while their daughter Sherry was innocent and pure. He, on the other hand, wore a cold poker face, as if completely uninterested.
It was just as he had said before:
Family was merely the product of his impulse.
The moment he saw the photo, G William's expression froze slightly, as if recalling something, but unfortunately, he quickly returned to normal. His remaining sanity vanished once more.
G William slowly took out a small G William sample crystal hidden inside, preparing to throw it into his mouth. Although the quantity wasn't large, it was enough to significantly increase his power.
However,
A loud, elongated gunshot once again interrupted G William's movements.
"Bang——————!!!"
It was the familiar ultra-long-range sniper shot again.
Before he could even clearly see where the person was, the bullet and gunshot had already screamed and flown towards him, emitting an ear-piercing shriek. It was a bullet fired from a sniper rifle, tearing through the air's barrier, carrying a powerful air current, and accurately shooting straight at G William's slender left arm!
"Bang!"
"Pfft…!"
The sniper rifle bullet instantly pierced through.
G William's left arm had not been enhanced by the virus and remained extremely slender. The power of the sniper rifle's bullet was enough to break G William's arm in an instant, so before he could even react,
Fragile as paper, G William's arm instantly snapped and hung by the bone when the bullet hit, connected only by some muscle fibers. The G Virus crystal sample he had been so focused on dropped and rolled under the room's table. Blood splattered in mid-air, and a sharp pain surged through G William's brain.
"Ho ho ho…"
"Roar roar roar————!!!"
G William, realizing what had happened, immediately let out a terrifying roar, his expression incredibly twisted. Purple veins bulged on his face, and the huge eyeball on his shoulder stared intently in the direction of the gunshot. His entire body's muscles tensed. G William was ready to eliminate these intruders who had disrupted his plans.
But…
In the dark corridor in the distance,
The sound of a bolt being racked was heard again. G William wasn't going to let them go, and Javier wasn't going to let G William go either. With the enemy exposed and them hidden, this was the perfect time for a sniper to attack.
"Click—clack—!!"
Bullet after bullet was loaded. Carrying the Springfield M1903 sniper rifle, Javier quickly pulled the trigger as soon as he aimed down the scope. Sniper bullets flew at G William from tricky and unpredictable angles, ready to slowly deplete his life force!
"Bang—!"
The first shot hit the large eyeball on G William's left shoulder, splattering viscous yellow liquid. The attacked eyeball painfully closed its eye, and the swollen tumor-like arm on his left arm grew even larger due to rage.
"Bang—!"
The bolt was racked again and the trigger pulled. This shot hit G William's slender leg, which still hadn't been reinforced by the virus. With just one shot, his knee instantly exploded and was pierced through. Unable to support his weight, G William crashed down, his twisted face opening his mouth as he roared furiously while half-kneeling on the ground, unable to stand up again for a while.
"Bang—!"
Another shot.
This time, it hit G William's roaring mouth. The sharp, penetrating bullet directly pierced deep into his roaring mouth, instantly bursting his throat. The furious roar abruptly ceased.
But such actions would only provoke G William's even greater rage, because he could not tolerate someone humiliating him in such a way, especially himself, who had already gained extraordinary power.
But Javier still wasn't going to indulge G William.
As a true fan of the story, Javier never found anything charming about William. Perhaps his talent and ability in virus research were indeed outstanding, and if used correctly, he might even truly change humanity and the world. But this still couldn't hide his cruelty in using Lisa… and hundreds of thousands of orphans and innocent people as virus test subjects!
Therefore,
"Bang—bang—bang—!!!"
Three consecutive bolt-action shots followed.
Bullet after bullet flew out rapidly, hitting G William's head, heart, and his remaining left knee respectively. Bursts of blood splattered. G William, having endured such precise concentrated fire, heavily knelt to the ground, unable to get up for a long time. He lay on the ground, trembling violently, constantly emitting whimpers from his mouth, unsure if it was due to severe injuries or some other reason.
But was he dead…?
Of course not.
Javier, who was familiar with the power of the G Virus, wasn't that foolish. If a G Virus monster could be killed by five or six sniper rifle bullets, then William should perhaps check if what he researched was a knock-off G Virus.
Therefore, facing the fallen G William, Javier didn't hesitate and prepared to rack the bolt for another round of fire. But awkwardly, the Springfield M1903 sniper rifle's magazine was empty. Seeing this, Javier immediately drew the Desert Eagle from his leg, and.50 caliber bullets poured out again.
"Bang…bang…bang…!!!"
Like a violent storm,
Dual-wielding Desert Eagles demonstrated immense suppressive fire. The power of.50 caliber bullets was astonishing. From hundreds of meters away, Javier's exquisite shooting skills still hit G William's body. The large-caliber metal warheads and the virus-enhanced flesh collided, producing a tremendous chemical reaction.
The seemingly tough virus-enhanced skin, at this moment, truly seemed like paper, bursting open with fist-sized, grotesque blood-holes. G William was like a human target, lying there in a daze, being furiously shot.
Even though his body was already covered in various terrifying wounds, he showed no signs of suddenly lashing out. Instead, blood flowed all over the ground, forming a deep red pool. He lay motionless, as if truly dead.
But Javier would never believe such a situation.
Unless a G Virus monster's body was blasted into powder, he would never believe it was dead. There was no other way… The G Virus's survival ability was almost the most tenacious among all viruses; it could adapt to any environment. He had to prepare for the worst.
The condition G William was displaying now,
Was not truly dead, but merely waiting for Javier to approach before launching a sudden, fatal sneak attack. After all, William's fusion with the G Virus was not yet perfect. At this moment, he couldn't control the rapidly expanding, massive, and bulky body of the G Virus, and his strong, huge arms were only slowing him down.
Therefore, William couldn't instantly kill Javier, who was hiding in the shadows as a sniper. That's why he could only feign death and wait for Javier to take the bait. If it were anyone else, they might actually have believed it, but Javier… as a spoiler-aware player, there was absolutely no chance!
"…"
"…"
Among the group,
Leon and Ada were both very surprised watching Javier's smooth shooting actions: racking the bolt, aiming down the scope, pulling the trigger. There wasn't a single wasted movement. What was even more absurd was… the aiming time was less than a second, almost an instant scope, yet every shot was a bullseye.
That old World War I and II veteran, the Springfield M1903 sniper rifle, seemed to have truly found its master, like the sniper sharpshooters on the battlefield back then, essentially one person, one bullet, every shot hitting its mark.
With such absurd shooting talent,
Leon and Ada's excellent shooting skills paled in comparison. They had both undergone rigorous systematic training, but neither was as absurd as Javier. Perhaps this was the difference between ordinary people and a genius (or a cheat)…
"Wait, is that monster almost done for?!"
Meanwhile, Claire, seeing G William being beaten back by Javier's continuous suppressive fire, couldn't help but show a look of admiration on her face. She hadn't expected this unreliable guy to be so powerful, almost as strong as her brother Chris.
"No,"
"That monster isn't that easy to kill. He's just waiting for us to get close before launching a sudden, fatal sneak attack. You two, stay away from me."
Seeing Claire next to him wanting to finish G William off with a shotgun, Javier quickly reached out to stop the reckless college student. At the same time, Javier slowly took out a Molotov cocktail from his tactical backpack. He lit it with a lighter, and as the flames leaped up, he threw it without hesitation at G William, who was still playing dead!
"Crack..."
"Boom—!!!"
The Molotov cocktail arced gracefully through the air. Just as it was about to hit G William and burst into flames, G William, who was playing dead, finally couldn't take it anymore. He decisively stood up and dodged, causing the Molotov cocktail to miss and shatter on the ground. The flames began to burn, forming a scorching wall of fire, instantly creating a safe fiery barrier that separated everyone...
Chapter 20: A Glimpse of Eternity
"Pfft..."
"Boom—!!!"
In the corridor, scorching flames burned fiercely, separating Javier and the others from G William. Because of the flames, Javier and the others slowly emerged from the shadows. When G William saw Javier's true face, his expression immediately became ferocious, and he opened his large mouth, roaring madly:
"Roar, roar, roar—!!!"
It seemed G William held deep resentment for Javier's recent firepower. Of course, more importantly, Javier had already disrupted many of his plans on several occasions. Back when he was in the Cadre Training Institute's surveillance, William had seen Javier once. At the time, he and Wesker thought he was a new rookie in the S.T.A.R.S, never expecting him to be so troublesome now.
Of course, the most crucial part was that Javier had repeatedly humiliated him with the Springfield M1903 sniper rifle. This was what enraged William the most. With his superhuman strength, he would not allow himself to be humiliated by a human like an ant.
And at this moment, the wounds on G William's massive body, previously shot by the sniper rifle and large-caliber pistol, had already vanished. There was no trace of bullet holes on him; everything had recovered perfectly. This was the tenacious vitality of the G Virus. You might be able to knock it down countless times, but as long as it wasn't completely killed, it would become stronger each time.
"How is that possible?"
"He's completely fine. Where are the bullet wounds from just now? They've all healed completely. This is just too resilient."
Claire and Leon, moving closer, murmured in surprise as they saw G William's robust body with no wounds.
This was far more powerful than the zombies and Lickers they had encountered before. Although those monsters were also strong, they still had certain weaknesses; hitting their heads would lead to immediate death.
But G William, in front of them, was like an unkillable slime. He had no organs like a heart or a brain. Aside from crushing him into oblivion, there was almost no other way to defeat him. Perhaps this was the difference between the G and T viruses.
"This is the danger of the G Virus."
"Once a monster is infected with this virus, it will be extremely difficult to kill, unless there are specialized weapons. So, you should understand now why I am so concerned about the G Virus sample, right? If the G Virus is recovered by the Umbrella Corporation, or even flows into the city for experiments, the disaster it unleashes will be incredibly terrifying."
At this moment, Ada Wong, who was beside them, interjected at just the right time to explain, still not forgetting to emphasize her own role. This female deceiver still wanted to mislead Claire and Leon at this point, while also glorifying her own righteous image, so that she could then trick Claire and Leon into obediently offering her the G Virus sample.
However, at this moment, just as Javier was about to continue fighting G William, the monster girl Lisa, who had been hidden behind Javier for a long time, suddenly slowly walked out from Javier's protection. Looking at G William in front of her, Lisa could feel a strange emotion.
G William had the same G Virus scent as her, but the virus in her body was the original strain, so it was stronger than the modified G Virus.
At the same time, that familiar scent also stirred Lisa's long-sealed painful memories.
This one glance... spanned nearly thirty-one years—
In Lisa's hazy, dark red eyes, she seemed to see that beautiful, sunny afternoon. The sun was warm, not too scorching, and the dense forests of the Akeley Mountains were not filled with the smell of decay, but still accompanied by the sweet scent of fresh air and grass. The sky was still incredibly blue.
A blue and white checkered canvas was spread on the lawn, with a woven basket on it, filled with various afternoon desserts and delicacies. Lisa could even recall the sweetness of cream on her lips and the joyful laughter of her loving parents.
Although Lisa had long forgotten their faces, leaving only a blur, that familiar scent and sound were something Lisa could never forget.
This beautiful memory came to an abrupt halt when a seemingly kind old man slowly appeared before them. He was dressed in a suit, his slightly hunched back unable to conceal his arrogant demeanor. His ambition was like a drawn sword, sharp and unyielding, without any bend. His face was covered in wrinkles, and white hair had begun to appear at his temples, but his shrewd face still looked vibrant.
The first time Lisa met him, she thought he was just a very energetic old man. But later, she learned his name was Oswell E. Spencer—
The founder and president of the famous pharmaceutical company, Umbrella Corporation, a prominent figure who often appeared on television. No wonder his demeanor was so unique. But Lisa still didn't pay much attention, because she had heard her father say that her excellent father had helped the Umbrella Corporation build a historical and great building, which took two whole years. The hard work was over, and now it was their time to reap the rewards of their harvest. The Umbrella Corporation was inviting them to a celebratory dinner.
Without any precautions, Lisa remembered their family of three joyfully entering that beautiful Mansion Villa, which was as beautiful as a castle from a fairy tale. Lisa loved it very much, but unfortunately...
When they entered the Mansion Villa, they found that what awaited their family of three inside was not a grand banquet, but a group of strange people holding firearms. Their faces were cold and terrifying, and the originally kind old man also had a sinister smile.
Before they could react, they were escorted underground. No matter how much Lisa cried, she couldn't reunite with her parents. And then... Lisa was forced into a cycle of insane torment. A group of strange people in white coats, wearing gas masks, injected tubes of medicine into her body.
At that time, Lisa felt her body was very strange, as if tens of thousands of ants were crawling inside. Sometimes she felt hot, sometimes cold, sometimes she fainted, and sometimes she felt excruciating pain. Her throat coughed up blood, her vision blurred, and her limbs lost control.
Lisa didn't know how long she was tortured. Eventually, she became numb. The only thing that kept her alive until now was the desire to see her mother and father again.
Her last meeting with her mother was in a damp, cold grotto. That day, she and her mother were also injected with strange medicine. She thought nothing would happen, but her mother underwent a massive change.
Lisa could never forget how her mother's hair was disheveled and messy, her hands gripped Lisa's shoulders tightly, her eyes incredibly red. She had tried to bite Lisa's arm with her teeth, but ultimately, reason triumphed over impulse.
When Lisa woke up... her mother was completely gone. After that came Lisa's body and mind, which became numb and senseless from human experimentation. During the experiments... Lisa even lost track of time and memory, because she spent every day in a dim cell, never seeing the sun of tomorrow, and having no concept of time. Every day awaited her was only experiments and experiments, and scheduled food feedings.
