It radiated an incredibly terrifying and horrifying energy, carrying a thick aura of destruction, smashing down violently like a pillar supporting the heavens.
Before it could even react, the terrifying laser beam from the Chongo attack satellite had already pierced through King Ghidorah's body.
That body with its rapid recovery ability was directly decomposed into particles under the infusion of the beam; there was no such thing as a recovery ability anymore.
"Roar, roar, roar...!!!!!!"
With just one strike, the lower half of King Ghidorah was erased. Having lost half of its lower body, King Ghidorah immediately let out a painful wail.
This scream echoed through the sky, and a large number of tentacles flailed wildly, whipping up waves of towering giants.
Watching the scene before him,
Javier's expression was slightly dazed.
Good heavens, what kind of world-destroying power is this? A Giant Form? One strike turns the rivers and seas upside down; it's even more powerful than the Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong's Sea-Settling Needle, the Golden Cudgel.
With this one smash, half of King Ghidorah's body vanished. If this happened a few more times, wouldn't Wesker and King Ghidorah immediately turn to dust and disappear!
Meanwhile,
Javier finally recalled at this moment,
that in the game plot, there was indeed a weapon on the freighter that could control an attack satellite to fire laser beams, but that was a Tricell item.
He hadn't expected it to still be used by Chris and the others; as expected of the protagonist, where venomous snakes and insects dwell, the antidote is always within seven steps.
"Hmph..."
"Now we're even, Javier... this world isn't about individual heroism; showing off on your own is of no use,"
"You should try to believe in me, in us; as long as we work together, we can help just as much!"
And at this moment,
inside the main cockpit,
Jill, wearing a protective suit and gas mask, couldn't help but murmur such a lament as she looked at Chris and Javier on the freighter's deck.
Jill strongly disliked Javier's maverick behavior.
He always seemed to have many secrets and troubles, always solving them by himself, while they were the outsiders.
This made Jill very sad and frustrated.
She felt she could help Javier, but she had never gained his trust, and now... Jill and Chris had proven it.
Although they were just ordinary people,
it didn't mean they were useless; they weren't baggage. As long as they worked together, they could still erupt with powerful strength.
"Boom..."
"Swoosh... beep beep beep...!!!!"
One laser beam from the Chongo attack satellite gave Chris a taste of success, and without any hesitation,
Chris immediately launched a second beacon.
The beacon successfully hit King Ghidorah's body again, and the position of this beacon was the snake head where Wesker was located.
"Boom..."
"Puchi..."
"Boom, boom, rumble——————————!!!!!!!!!!!"
A sky-shattering explosion occurred.
A second thick, blindingly white laser beam instantly fell again, pouring down with lightning speed.
This time, the daylight-like energy light directly engulfed the massive snake head where Wesker was. When the blinding light disappeared,
the position of the massive snake head where Wesker had been was now completely gone without a trace, thoroughly decomposed into countless particles that vanished into the air...!
"Boom, boom, rumble—!!!!!!"
Chris's beacons were continuously fired onto King Ghidorah's body, and before it could realize what was happening,
King Ghidorah's towering, massive body was swallowed by the giant pillars of light in the blink of an eye.
Divine punishment falling from the sky covered it.
As the blinding white light vanished, King Ghidorah's body had completely disappeared from the side of the freighter.
It was no longer clinging to the side of the freighter,
nor using those three divine snake mouths to bite the freighter, let alone using its massive tentacles to whip up towering waves.
Its flesh could no longer exist in the world,
because the energy of the laser beam was too powerful and destructive; the high-temperature thermal energy could instantly evaporate all flesh.
Even something as strong as the ouroboros virus could not survive; it all turned to ash and vanished in tens of seconds!
And this...
is the terrifying thing about human wisdom.
Human wisdom is like Pandora's box; it can release incredibly evil things, but it can also release incredibly powerful ones. The real key depends on the person using it.
"It's over..."
With the Beacon Launchers on his shoulder completely exhausted, Chris set it aside. Looking at the vanished King Ghidorah monster and the riddled freighter before him, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and murmur.
This battle was the most difficult mission he had executed so far.
He had been executing the mission with the most concentrated spirit from beginning to end until now.
The moment he relaxed, Chris only felt his vision go dark, and he couldn't help but want to slump down on the ground to rest, but fortunately, Chris resisted it.
"Wesker..."
"Now we're truly even; there won't be any more karmic entanglement."
Recalling the previous Wesker, Chris also murmured a sentence. From the initial S.T.A.R.S of the Raccoon City Police Department to the betrayal at the Mansion Villa,
after about ten years of karmic entanglement, it was finally over. Chris could also give closure to his fallen comrades and the innocent civilians who had died.
"Ttap, tap, tap..."
"I didn't expect the real savior to be you, Chris. Are you okay?"
At this time,
a familiar sound of footsteps came from the freighter deck in the distance. Chris turned to look and saw it was Javier in a black protective suit and gas mask.
Beside him was Alexia, who had released the T-Veronica Virus to burn the toxic gas. The toxic gas in the air had mostly drifted away and been diluted.
But the cautious Alexia still used her Crimson Flame to spray fire above the freighter.
Only when it was about time did she slowly change back to her human form, still with that blonde-haired, blue-eyed, exquisite appearance and figure, casually finding a piece of canvas to wrap around her body.
At this moment, she didn't care about any obsession with cleanliness.
As long as she could cover her graceful body, it was fine. She could be seen by anyone, but she just didn't want that bastard Javier to get a free look.
Meanwhile, Javier, looking at Chris who had put down the Beacon Launcher, couldn't help but step forward to greet him.
The protagonist of this grand scene was still Chris.
But Javier was not jealous of Chris, because he himself had no way to terminate Wesker and King Ghidorah.
In that case,
it was also a very good thing that Chris could use the Beacon Launcher to control the Chongo attack satellite in outer space to release laser beams for the final elimination.
After all, Javier didn't want this farce to continue; anyone who could solve Wesker was fine, it didn't necessarily have to end by his hand to be considered a perfect conclusion.
"Javier, what are your plans next...?"
Looking at Javier slowly walking towards him,
although Chris really wanted to greet him—after all, the two were among the few remaining old friends from the Raccoon City S.T.A.R.S—
recalling Javier's various behaviors,
Chris understood this guy less and less. As a member of the anti-biochemical organization BSAA,
Chris still chose to keep his distance from Javier. Until he figured out Javier's true purpose, Chris would not open his heart to him.
"No plans."
"The matter is over. Next, I will continue my research. To tell you the truth, there are three main reasons why I came to West Africa."
"First is for Wesker; I was afraid Wesker would really use the ouroboros virus to infect the whole world, so for the sake of future life, I had an obligation to stop him. Second is for the ouroboros virus; you should be able to see that I have also become an infected person of the virus."
"But the kind without side effects. Like Spencer, my goal is to use the virus to complete my dream of immortality. The virus can grant eternal youth, and that's what I value. But don't be quick to get angry; although I study bio-viruses, I have never experimented on any living person so far; my experimental subjects are all animals."
"If you really find me one day using bio-viruses to cause trouble, Chris, you can bring the BSAA people to arrest me, and I won't have a single complaint."
"As for the third, it's the simplest point: Alexia and Lisa both have a grudge against Wesker. This time we came for revenge. Now that the farce is over, I will naturally leave to continue my experimental research."
Looking at Chris, who was so distant and maintaining a certain gap, Javier could only awkwardly withdraw the hand he wanted to extend.
Javier knew Chris still had certain doubts about his behavior.
But at this time, Javier didn't care anymore, so he didn't hide anything and directly poured out all his purposes.
"Immortality...?!"
"Javier, that's an impossible dream. You should know that no living creature in the world can violate the natural laws of birth, aging, sickness, and death. Turn back, Javier; as your only friends, we can still accept you."
Hearing that Javier had finally revealed his purpose,
Jill, who had just come down from the main cockpit nearby, walked up quickly and seriously began to persuade him.
Sheva also accompanied her. Jill was very worried that Javier would follow in the footsteps of the Umbrella Corporation, which is why she went to such lengths to persuade him.
At this moment, although everyone was once comrades in the Raccoon City S.T.A.R.S, they had already parted ways and drifted further and further apart.
Perhaps they didn't realize it themselves, but Javier's philosophy was already very far from theirs, and it would be very difficult to persuade him back.
"No..."
"Jill, you might not know, but at Spencer's Mansion Villa, if I hadn't saved you and Chris in time, you likely would have fallen into the abyss of the cliff with Wesker and eventually been captured by him to have a virus implanted in your body. By then, you too would be a member of the immortals."
"Because of the virus, your body will age slowly. When Chris is sixty years old and his temples are turning white with age, you will still be no different from how you are now at thirty. This is the power of the virus. At that time, you too will be caught in a whirlpool of conflict between being an ordinary person and the virus, unable to extricate yourself for a long time."
"I don't know if the virus can grant immortality, but it can indeed extend life. It could be a hundred years, two hundred years, three hundred years—I'm not sure, but immortality will be the goal I keep chasing. Don't try to persuade me anymore."
"Since the end of the Raccoon City incident, I have been planning this. Now it's been nearly ten years, and I've put in a lot of effort; it's impossible to just let go."
"But my friendship will always be open to you. I can't guarantee anything for the G-Virus and T-Veronica Virus yet, but I can already completely control the weakest T-Virus and produce a vaccine. If you ever want to extend your lifespan, you can come to me."
"The T-Virus can at least help you live to around two hundred years old. I don't want to have not a single person I know to talk to by then."
"Additionally, the T-Virus vaccine, the Plaga parasite suppressant pill, and the Ultraviolet Laser Removal Surgical Device appearing on the market were all developed by people I ordered."
"So you don't have to worry about me causing trouble or anything. Just by these things alone, the number of people I've saved is no less than tens of millions; I've just earned a little funding from the government, that's all."
Hearing Jill's persuasion,
Javier shook his head and refused without hesitation.
Those with different paths cannot make plans together; saying more would be to no avail.
Javier could only express everything he wanted to express; as for whether Chris, Jill, and the others could understand, that was another matter.
However,
Javier was certain that
the path he was taking was definitely right. He wouldn't call it righteous, but it should be right. He was merely pursuing the desires a person should have.
At the same time... it's unclear if the virus can grant immortality,
but extending life is absolute. Sherry is now in her twenties, but her appearance is no different from an eighteen-year-old girl.
Including Jill in the original timeline; she was successively infected with the Raccoon City The Pursuer's virus, and later injected with other viruses by Wesker for research. Jill in her thirties showed no signs of aging.
Even if immortality is truly impossible,
Javier would be satisfied if his lifespan could be extended by a thousand or eight hundred years. After all, in a sense, immortality is also a curse; living for over a thousand years would be enough to make it all worth it.
