Chapter 425 - 425

Whenever Javier saw the secret weapons hidden on the freighter, he couldn't help but complain like this.

Because it was only 2009.

Technological development in the Resident Evil world was much faster than in the real world; after all, the real world today didn't have things like the Helios Satellite or the "Chongo" attack satellite.

Nor did it possess individual electromagnetic particle cannons.

The Helios Satellite, which caused the Terragrigia Panic orchestrated by the FBC, was terrifyingly powerful.

It focused solar energy into thermal light beams to attack Earth's oceans, and the heat released was enough to boil and evaporate entire sea areas.

At that point, who would care about global warming and rising sea levels?

Just turn it all into water vapor. Javier had only seen such imaginative high-tech weapons in the hands of Nazi fascists in WWII Germany.

When Germany, led by Adolf Hitler, faced defeat and was besieged by the United Nations, Hitler once ordered the Nazi fascists under his command to organize a team of elite R&D personnel.

Specifically to develop various weapons that could turn the tide of war.

One of them was the very familiar Sun Gun.

Similar to the Helios Satellite, it involved creating a giant magnifying glass to form a light beam from thermal energy through the principle of focusing light to attack targets.

Unfortunately, that weapon failed, but now the Helios Satellite in the Resident Evil world was a success.

Next were the Nazi UFOs.

And the legendary, almost mythical Nazi Bell, the Bell of Death. There were many rumors about this bell.

Some said it could produce massive radiation upon explosion to kill all targets, making it a suicidal weapon.

But others said it was a treasure that could travel through time and space.

The energy generated upon activation could cause space-time distortion and travel, allowing their Nazi fascist legions to return to a point in time before their defeat to change history, and so on.

In fact, WWII Germany also wanted to create an atomic bomb, but unfortunately, they failed, and the United States was the first to develop it.

One could only say their imagination was extraordinary.

At the same time, this was also the Nazi fascists' desperate struggle before their demise.

Because they knew they were dying, they attempted to invent so many wonderful black-tech weapons.

People are driven by desperation.

Naturally, all sorts of weapons come out before death; it's not surprising. Now that there aren't as many wars, the development of weapons has indeed progressed slowly, relatively speaking.

And this was exactly what Javier was lamenting.

The Resident Evil world suffered from bio-viruses, and many black technologies were developed during that time. If they could just be a bit more sensible, the weapons they invented would be enough to destroy the world.

There was really no need to be obsessed with bio-viruses.

This resulted in bio-viruses developing rapidly today, but they were still no match for modern conventional weapons. This was quite frustrating!

The only advantage of bio-viruses...

...was probably the ability to infect enemy nations covertly, causing war to break out on another front.

After all, international treaties strictly forbid the use of highly infectious and destructive weapons in war, but it's hard to trace the source of bio-viruses, so they replaced weapons of destruction like nuclear bombs.

Another thing was the enhancement of carbon-based organisms by viruses.

Unlike other conventional weapons, no matter how strong a weapon is, it's just a weapon; the human body is ultimately fragile. Bio-viruses have the potential to change the upper limits of the human body's strength, so they are worth researching...

...

Cutting back—

"Jill, have you figured out how to use this weapon?"

In the freighter's main cockpit, as Chris felt the entire ship shaking, he couldn't help but ask Jill anxiously as she worked on the computer.

They had originally intended to use the cockpit's computer to send a distress signal to the BSAA and the Global Anti-Bioterrorism Alliance.

But they didn't expect that instead of sending the signal, they would discover an ultimate weapon secretly hidden by Tricell in this main cockpit.

Excella, the CEO in charge of this Institute base...

...fearing that the proliferation of the ouroboros virus would exceed her control or even go out of control, had applied for authorization from Tricell's headquarters.

She obtained the usage rights for an attack satellite named "Chongo."

This Chongo attack satellite could release a powerful laser beam from outer space to strike the ground. It was a very powerful weapon that only required a beacon to lock on for a precision strike.

Hearing this news...

Chris couldn't help but happily clap his hands!

Although Excella was a woman with more beauty than brains and an ultimate "love brain," she hadn't made any mistakes in virus research.

It's good that she was worried.

She applied for an attack satellite for them to use. This backup plan... even Wesker couldn't help but praise it as brilliant!

"It's gradually being confirmed..."

"Also, Chris, I've just obtained authorization for the Chongo attack satellite. Now we just need to launch a beacon to carry out a precision bombardment. As for the tool to launch the beacon, it's this."

"This Beacon Launcher is like a rocket launcher; it uses the beacon on top for targeting. The satellite's attack distance error will not exceed ten meters at most."

"If operated correctly, it will take about a dozen beacons to completely kill the King Ghidorah monster in front of us."

Hearing Chris's anxious inquiry...

Jill, busy at the computer, waited a moment before standing up with a sigh of relief, pointing to the data on the computer projection to explain to Chris.

As she spoke...

Jill pressed a button.

A section of the wall in the cabin opened instantly. Along with the opening of the mechanical door, Chris and Jill saw the Beacon Launcher stored inside.

It was similar to a rocket launcher.

But the only difference was that it didn't have shells.

It only needed to fire a needle-like tube similar to an anesthetic syringe. There was a red light flashing at the end, which was the beacon device used for positioning.

"Chris, Jill."

"I've found gas masks and protective suits. Put them on quickly! The King Ghidorah monster outside is already spitting out poisonous mist. If you go out recklessly, you might get infected!"

At this moment...

Sheva, who hadn't had a scene for a long time, rushed over from the other side of the cabin, her face full of panic.

She was holding several white protective suits and pig-nose gas masks. For a company like Tricell that specialized in researching bio-viruses...

...it was very simple to find a few protective suits and gas masks.

Meanwhile, looking at the poisonous mist slowly drifting outside the window, Sheva quickly closed the windows and doors of the main cockpit to prevent the toxic gas from invading and infecting them beforehand.

"Thank you, Sheva, but it's okay now."

"Jill and I have found a way to deal with this monster. This Tricell freighter has a weapon specifically for dealing with such creatures."

"They've really brought this on themselves. Now, without further ado, I'll go outside to launch the beacon for positioning. You and Jill stay in the main cockpit and try your best to send an emergency distress signal to the BSAA."

Looking at the gas mask and protective suit Sheva handed over, Chris didn't refuse. After thanking her, he quickly put them on.

Once everything was ready...

Chris carried the Beacon Launcher and intended to walk out of the main cockpit, leaving Sheva and Jill, the two women, to hide inside.

After all, the freighter was already in ruins. In a little while, it would probably sink to the bottom of the sea, so Chris couldn't afford to delay any longer.

Step step step...!!!

Without hesitation...

Chris, having prepared everything, duty-boundly carried the Beacon Launcher out of the main cockpit, ignoring the surrounding toxic gas.

He ran straight to the deck of the freighter.

He stood directly facing the towering King Ghidorah monster. This was his second confrontation with Wesker, and his last.

And as one of the protagonists of Resident Evil...

Chris was still the savior of this world.

"Wesker, it's time to settle all of this with you...!"

Looking at Wesker, who had completely turned into the King Ghidorah monster above him, Chris carried the Beacon Launcher and couldn't help but mutter to himself. Let all the karmic entanglements be cut off right now!

...

"Chris...?!"

At this moment...

The towering King Ghidorah monster looked at Chris, who had suddenly walked out below. Wesker, atop one of the giant snakes, gazed down at Chris, who was as tiny as an ant.

A look of deep confusion appeared on his face.

He didn't understand why Chris would stand up at this time, because Chris was now of no use whatsoever.

Wesker used to consider Chris his nemesis, the two of them pitted against each other, but now, gradually, Wesker no longer took Chris seriously.

His own power was getting stronger and stronger, while Chris was getting smaller and smaller.

He was always just a weak human. Just like now, even if he had turned into a monster, he, Wesker, was tens of thousands of feet tall.

Looking at Chris below was like looking at an ant.

With just a slight opening of his massive snake mouth, he could spit out terrifying black flames to submerge Chris. The gap in their strength was just that huge!

However...

What Wesker didn't know...

...was that those who defeat these dragons are often tiny humans like Chris...!

Bang...

Whoosh————!!!

But...

Chris didn't pay attention to Wesker's contempt; besides, he couldn't see any so-called contempt on the face of a giant snake monster.

Looking at the colossal creature before him...

Chris directly pulled the trigger of the Beacon Launcher.

There was no fire; the beacon immediately struck the giant body of King Ghidorah like a spear. With such a massive target, even a random shot would hit.

Beep beep beep...!!!

After the beacon successfully hit, the red light at the end immediately began to flash, letting out a rapid beeping sound.

After about ten seconds, a dazzling light like daylight suddenly appeared in the pitch-black sky.

Sizzle...

That light tore through the skirt of the goddess of night; it was a beam of light descending into the darkness. In an instant, the storm stopped, and the sound of thunder and lightning was jolted into silence.

An extremely strong sense of pressure descended from the sky.

Even humans, creatures who don't always know how to seek benefit and avoid harm, felt an inexplicable palpitation in their hearts.

As if some great terror was about to descend.

Seeing this... Chris looked directly up at the sky.

The King Ghidorah monster also had an ominous premonition. Just as it tried to look up at the sky, because of its sins against the laws of nature, God's "Heavenly Punishment" had arrived quietly—!

Boom...!

Rumble, rumble, rumble——————————!!!!!!!!!!!!

The heavens and earth exploded.

The ground shook and the mountains swayed.

The waves rolled.

A giant white light beam about ten meters in diameter crashed down from the sky.
