Chapter 123 The whole family are actors!
"Mom, our dog... could it be an awakened dog too?"
Lin Fan gripped the steering wheel, his eyes filled with deep doubt about the world.
There's no doubt that Dad is a human monster.
And his mother's appearance here at this time clearly didn't seem like a normal, ordinary person.
As for his abilities, he's too lazy to even think about them now.
All he wants to know now is whether his dog "Wangcai," who lies at the door all day baring its teeth at him, is a normal dog.
After all, everything he's doing now seems a bit abnormal in this family, except for him.
Li Xiulan was adjusting her seat in the passenger seat when she heard this, so she simply turned her head and looked at Lin Fan.
A meaningful smile appeared on that well-maintained face.
He didn't say anything.
They didn't deny it.
Just watch quietly.
Lin Fan: "..."
understood.
At this moment, Lin Fan felt that his worldview of twenty years had completely collapsed.
So, the whole family, except for him who just woke up a few days ago, even the dog is a hidden master?
He even fought with Wangcai over bones before...
Looking back now, the way that dog looked at him was probably as if it were looking at an idiot.
"drive."
Li Xiulan withdrew her gaze and uttered two words calmly.
"Okay!"
Lin Fan immediately straightened his posture and dared not ask any more questions.
……
at this time.
Next to the black SUV.
The woman in red was breathing heavily.
Sweat had soaked through her clothes on the back, and her red trench coat clung tightly to her body, making her look extremely disheveled.
She watched as the old Raptor pickup truck started up, its engine roaring.
That terrifying woman got into that car.
Is this a sign that they're planning to leave?
A surge of overwhelming joy, like surviving a catastrophe, welled up inside the woman in red.
Good riddance!
Good riddance!
Although he didn't know why that woman had let him go, as long as he could survive, that was more important than anything else.
As for the mission?
To hell with the mission!
The Morgan family is gone, so what kind of mission are they supposed to carry out?
The woman in red frantically opened the car door, preparing to turn around and get as far away from these monsters as possible.
The best course of action would be to flee back to Europe, find a place in the countryside to hide, and never come to America again in this lifetime!
There's no freedom here at all!
however.
The instant her hand touched the doorknob.
A slender, pale hand reached out from the passenger window of the Raptor pickup truck that had already started moving ahead.
It was that woman...
The other person simply waved casually behind them.
The movements were gentle, as if he were calling to his own dog.
Followed by.
A calm, emotionless voice clearly reached the woman in red's ears.
The sound wasn't loud, but it seemed to explode directly in the depths of her mind.
"Keep up."
"Don't even think about running away."
"You should be aware of the consequences."
boom--!
The woman in red was struck dumb, frozen in place.
A chill ran from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head, making her blood seem to freeze instantly.
clear?
Of course she knew!
Not long ago, she witnessed firsthand how Morgan Estate, which had stood for a century, vanished into thin air in an instant.
There was no explosion, no fire.
It just disappeared so abruptly and irrationally...
Including the hundreds of people inside, the foundation, and that space.
It's like gently erasing a drawing with an eraser.
That terrifying power, which transcends cognition and dimensions, is something that she, a mere psychic awakener, simply cannot contend with!
run?
Where are you going?
He ran from one end of the kang (heated brick bed) to the other...
Is there any safe place on Earth in front of this woman?
The woman in red, her hands trembling, opened the car door and desperately entered the driver's seat.
Without any hesitation.
Ignition, gear shift, accelerator.
The black SUV, like an obedient lapdog, followed obediently behind the Raptor pickup truck.
I dare not overtake.
They dared not fall behind.
Always maintain a "safe distance" of fifty meters.
……
Meanwhile, at the Hexagon, in the command center.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the bizarre scene on the screen.
A beat-up pickup truck led the way.
A black SUV followed behind, looking like a wronged little wife.
And in the back of that pickup truck.
The once arrogant and ruthless man who had withstood a meteorite was now curled up in a ball, hugging his knees, letting the gale blow his hair into a bird's nest.
This scene...
It looks so out of place no matter how you look at it.
It's absurd no matter how you look at it.
"Can anyone tell me...?"
The American president said in a trembling voice,
"What exactly is going on here?"
"That woman...recruited those two monsters?"
No one answered.
Because nobody knows the answer.
The intelligence chief's face had turned a deep purplish-red as he frantically flipped through the documents in his hands, trying to find even the slightest reasonable explanation.
"Your Excellency, President..."
After a long while, he finally spoke with difficulty.
"Based on behavioral analysis..."
"I believe that woman should possess some form of control!"
"I even think that mysterious woman might be the mastermind behind all of this!"
"That's right!"
Another high-ranking official also joined in the speculation.
"This is no coincidence! This was a premeditated gathering!"
"An undead being capable of causing natural disasters."
"A destroyer with an invincible physical body."
"And then there's a mysterious woman..."
"My God..."
Some people covered their faces in despair.
"What is that? Is that Cerberus? Or have three of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse arrived?"
"So what exactly is their purpose?" the American president asked, his face full of doubt.
The technicians typed rapidly on the keyboard.
A few seconds later.
A red route map appeared on the big screen.
The arrow's endpoint points to a certain place.
"Report! If nothing unexpected happens, their destination is still Raccoon City!"
The technicians' voices were trembling.
"What?!"
Upon hearing the name of the place, everyone present turned deathly pale.
Raccoon City.
It's that damn Raccoon City again.
They had already deduced that the black-scaled monster and Lin Jianguo's destination was Raccoon City.
And now,
Even after this mysterious woman joined, it was still Raccoon City.
What is the attraction of that dead city that has been destroyed by fungi and turned into a forbidden zone?
"Why did they go there?"
The president slumped in his chair, his eyes vacant, still unable to understand the problem.
"What exactly is it about that place that attracts them?"
"Um... I think I know why they went to Raccoon City!"
Just then, Morgan, the representative of the forces behind Umbrella, spoke with a hesitant expression.
"Why?" the American president asked, looking him straight in the eye.
"Ann, below the Umbrella headquarters laboratory, there is... there's a part of Lin Jianguo's beast form..."
however,
Before Morgan could finish speaking, both the intelligence chief and the president asked in surprise.
"What???"
"You secretly transported that thing to the lab?"
"Damn it, isn't that thing in Area 51? You guys...!"
"I'm sorry, I don't know the specifics either, but I do know that what's stored in Area 51 is just a replica."
Faced with their questions, Morgan could only answer truthfully.
"Damn it, you bunch of bastards, how many more things are you hiding from me?"
At this moment, the American president was roaring like a madman.
"Do you even realize how much we'll lose if that madman gets that thing back?"
"That madman could very well unleash all his anger on us, and then the whole of America would be dragged into hell..."
Despite the ravings of the American president, no one dared to speak in the vast command center.
Anyone familiar with that tragedy could foresee that if that madman were to revert to his former self and become completely beastly...
That would be a devastating end for the entire nation of America.
"No! We absolutely cannot let him get that thing back!"
The American president jumped to his feet. "We can't let them into Raccoon City!"
"Stop them! We must stop them!"
"But……"
A general spoke with a bitter expression.
"How can we stop them? California's police force has collapsed."
The National Guard's heavy weapons were also ineffective against them.
As for that immortal brat... killing him will only cause an even greater disaster.
"And that mysterious woman..."
"We have no idea what her abilities are, so rushing to intercept her is practically suicide..."
Upon hearing this, the American president froze.
Yes.
What can stop them?
The conventional weapon is just tickling.
Unconventional weapons... nuclear bombs?
Dropping a nuclear bomb on its own soil?
Putting aside whether it will work, what if it triggers an even more terrifying disaster...
The consequences are unimaginable.
despair.
For a moment, a deep despair enveloped everyone.
They possess the world's most powerful army and the most advanced weaponry.
But when faced with this situation, they realized that they were just as powerless as they were.
"Are we... just going to watch?"
The president slumped back into his chair, looking as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
"Maybe……"
The intelligence chief's eyes flickered, and after a moment's hesitation, he said in a low voice, "We can ask those people for help..."
"Those people?"
The president looked up, a blank expression on his face, then, as if remembering something, subconsciously shook his head.
"No, no, no, we can't go after those people, the consequences..."
Before he could finish speaking, the intelligence chief interrupted:
"Your Excellency, this is not the time to consider the consequences. If we allow them to continue like this, our losses will be even greater..."
Yes,
If those three are allowed to continue their rampage, the losses will likely be even greater...
Thinking this through, the hesitation on the American president's face gradually hardened...
"Yes! Yes!!"
"Contact them!"
"Tell them that we'll agree to anything they ask for help with, as long as they come and help!"
