"This…how is this possible! Alexia…Wesker, have these bastards reached the realm of superhumans by relying on the power of the virus?"
Meanwhile,
Spencer, who was cowering in the corner, looked on from his wheelchair with an expression of disbelief as he witnessed the scene before him.
Spencer had never imagined that the power of the virus, which he had spent most of his life researching, would materialize in Wesker and Alexia.
Watching the dazzling, scorching flames and the blur of speed, Spencer felt an overwhelming envy.
If he hadn't been so cowardly back then, if he had injected himself with the virus a step earlier, would he also have gained such extraordinary power?
After all,
At this very moment, Wesker and Alexia had displayed an invincible, superhuman-like power, which filled him with immense envy and jealousy.
And this Alexia fellow, the former genius of the Ashford Family, he had thought she had completely vanished and died in the Antarctic Research Institute.
But now she had returned with powerful abilities, which was incredible. Thinking of this…Spencer's gaze fell upon the murky teacup beside him.
It contained Wesker's diluted blood. If he were to consume it now, would he be able to seize this last chance for evolution?
All sorts of desires filled Spencer's mind.
His ambition had now swelled to its limit again; the will to live urged him to quickly push his wheelchair slowly towards the direction of the table and teacup.
He completely disregarded the possibility of being affected by the battle between Alexia and Wesker. Spencer only wanted to drink that cup of mixed blood and complete his own transformation. This was his final ambition and desire!
However,
"Wait…"
"Where do you think you're going, old man? Although this is our first meeting, I feel I should formally introduce myself: Javier Li."
"One of the former S.T.A.R.S members in Raccoon City. You, a big shot from Umbrella Corporation, probably don't know a small fry like me. But it doesn't matter, you must know the woman beside me… No, a young girl, a girl in the prime of her youth."
Just as Spencer was about to stealthily move to the nearby table, the sharp-eyed Javier immediately reached out and stopped Spencer, his eyes narrowed as he calmly questioned the white-haired old man Spencer before him.
It was somewhat ironic,
Even though they were adversaries, Spencer, as the president of Umbrella Corporation, and Javier had never had any interaction, not even meeting each other.
After all, the disparity in their statuses was too great.
But now, the two had still become sworn enemies; one can only say… sometimes fate is truly wondrous.
"Javier…?"
"You…who are you—?!"
And sure enough,
Upon hearing Javier's self-introduction, Spencer indeed had no recollection. After all, in his memory, there was no such person, including Lisa, who had been staring at him with extremely angry eyes from the very beginning.
Spencer had no impression of any of these people.
Of course…considering that the Umbrella Corporation he founded and the bio-viruses he researched had killed many people,
So Spencer subconsciously regarded Javier and Lisa as some of the victims of his creation of bio-viruses.
"Lisa, leave this old man to me. I won't let him die for now."
"You go help Alexia deal with Wesker. Finish it quickly, and be careful not to let Wesker escape. After everything is settled, we'll come back and properly deal with this aged, somewhat senile old man."
Looking at Spencer's bewildered gaze,
Javier had an 'as expected' expression, then turned to Lisa and instructed her.
Wesker's matter had not yet been resolved, so Spencer could not be dealt with on the spot. Therefore, Javier planned to have Lisa and Alexia team up to take down Wesker, the big boss, first—!
"…"
"I understand…"
Upon hearing Javier's words, the furious Lisa slowly reined in her murderous eyes.
She turned her head,
And locked her crimson eyes onto Wesker, who was fighting fiercely with Alexia not far away, appearing evenly matched.
Since she couldn't vent on Spencer for the time being, Lisa would vent on Wesker, that bastard, first!
After all,
Besides Spencer,
Wesker was also one of Lisa's enemies, because after the Mansion Villa incident that year, Lisa, who had lost her parents but was immune to the T-Virus, became a dedicated test subject for Umbrella Corporation.
Because of her special antiviral physique,
Lisa was injected with hundreds of viruses, including some incurable diseases on Earth and mixed viruses developed by Umbrella Corporation itself.
And the people in charge of these experimental projects,
Undoubtedly, it was William and Wesker, the two master and apprentice. William was the executor, and Wesker was the commander.
Including the Nemesis-α Parasite back then,
It was also Wesker who ordered William to implant it, wanting to see Lisa's limits. After all, the Nemesis-α Parasite at that time was very destructive.
Many infected bodies could not withstand the power of Nemesis-α Parasite, which caused a lot of headaches for the French branch base that invented Nemesis-α Parasite.
And at that time, Wesker thought of Lisa, who could not be damaged by research but also showed no obvious changes.
So he implanted the Nemesis-α Parasite into Lisa's body, but this also, by a strange coincidence, allowed Lisa to regain a shred of sanity through the Plaga parasite.
Of course,
Why Umbrella Corporation didn't properly grasp Lisa as a perfect test subject was mainly because Umbrella Corporation didn't know Lisa was a perfect test subject at that time.
Although Lisa could withstand the ravages of hundreds of viruses,
Unfortunately, her body showed no obvious changes or feedback, including blood cell samples. This led to Umbrella Corporation being unable to obtain effective data samples.
It was like throwing a bunch of firecrackers to catch fish,
But each time, they unfortunately fizzled out. Not only did the firecrackers not burn, but no fish were caught, and not even a single bubble appeared on the lake. It could be said that they gained nothing.
Therefore, Umbrella Corporation gradually gave up on Lisa, this perfect test subject, later on. What was the use of being able to consume viruses?
Without producing changes, it was useless to Umbrella Corporation. But Umbrella Corporation was unaware that Lisa was at that time fusing to create the G-Virus, which could devour everything.
Only William, who was good at discovering, noticed everything.
After obtaining Lisa's blood cell samples and the G-Virus within them, he handed Lisa over to Umbrella Corporation to be dealt with.
Therefore,
In a sense,
Spencer, William, and Wesker were all Lisa's enemies, but Lisa hated Spencer even more.
Because the former was the culprit who caused her to lose her dearest parents and beautiful life, while the latter was the wicked person who tortured her in every possible way. Compared to the two, Lisa naturally hated Spencer more.
However,
This did not mean that Lisa would let Wesker off. That was simply impossible—!
"…"
"Thump, thump, thump…"
Without hesitation,
After locking her crimson eyes on Wesker, Lisa slowly approached the center of their battle.
She was completely unafraid of being affected by Alexia's wide-ranging flame power, nor was she afraid of Wesker's air cannon-like palm winds, because these abilities alone posed no threat to Lisa whatsoever.
And that white lab coat, coupled with black high heels, a pencil skirt, and a women's black shirt,
Anyone who didn't know her identity would truly mistake Lisa for an ordinary female researcher, as her deterrent power seemed too weak.
But in reality,
Lisa's dangerousness was understood only by Alexia and Wesker. In their eyes, Lisa was not a living human being,
But a monster in human skin,
Like a bright lamp walking in the dark, extremely conspicuous and dazzling, and one with a brightness of tens of millions of candelas.
Extremely terrifying,
Any creature in the dark would have their eyes stung by Lisa's dazzling daylight, utterly unable to ignore it. This was Lisa's power.
Now, having perfectly fused several viruses,
She had reached an unprecedented height. Even Wesker himself… had no confidence in directly confronting Lisa. The best and only way was to run, run fast—!
"Lisa…?! + 2"
Alexia and Wesker almost simultaneously muttered, seeing Lisa enter the battlefield.
They both stopped their actions and watched Lisa's direction with great vigilance. Alexia was surprised that Lisa would personally capture Wesker? This prey was supposed to be hers to hunt.
And Wesker was simply watching Lisa warily.
As long as Lisa had even the slightest thought of him, he would not hesitate to bolt.
There was no other way… he simply couldn't win.
You can't expect Wesker to sacrifice himself, can you? He still wanted to complete his Ouroboros Plan. As for Spencer on the side, Wesker couldn't care less about that old man's life or death, as long as it didn't involve him.
"…"
"Move aside, Alexia, I'll deal with him!"
"Wesker, the sins of your Umbrella Corporation in harming my father and mother, and the hundreds of virus experiments and tortures you and William Birkin performed on my body in the Mansion Villa Institute, it's time to repay them here. I have become human again, but that doesn't mean I will forget even a single painful memory from the past!"
Her crimson eyes were locked onto Wesker,
Lisa warned Alexia to move aside immediately, then slowly spoke, threatening Wesker.
At this moment, purple-black veins constantly bulged on Lisa's cheeks, and the whites of her eyes instantly turned black.
Her dark hair fell down involuntarily, and Lisa's pale hand slowly opened. Along with the voluntary cutting of her wrist, blood suddenly gushed out.
"Pfft…Boom!"
A scorching purplish-red ethereal flame suddenly ignited. This was a biological blood flame even more intense in temperature than Alexia's.
And the color was a special purple,
Formed by the mutation of the G-Virus itself, and in terms of power, it was naturally stronger than Alexia's flames.
During the great battle at the Antarctic Research Institute, the two had already clashed. Alexia's crimson flame simply could not compare to Lisa's ethereal purple flame.
"Crack…"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!!!"
Not only that,
Lisa's white lab coat behind her suddenly burst open, and a white bone wing rapidly spread from her shoulder blades. As the bone wing slowly expanded,
Thin, iridescent, translucent wings, folded within, also appeared before everyone, like the wings of a dragonfly.
At the position of her spine, several Nemesis-α Parasite tentacles also rapidly burst out, all undergoing metallic hardening, their tips covered with a thin, dark metallic film.
Like a drill, they could pierce through solid walls, and her remaining left hand also changed, with a sharp bone blade emerging from her arm, emitting a faint cold light.
Undoubtedly,
This was Lisa's highly aggressive state. Although it wasn't a true full-power release, it showcased a rich arsenal: flame magic, flying wings, long-range Plaga parasite tentacles, and a close-combat bone blade.
And it was in a minimized form, not an inflated, enlarged, weakened buff state. This was a very tricky boss posture in the Resident Evil law—!
"…"
"You are very strong, extremely strong…"
