"Bang—!!!"
Facing this powerful palm strike, Javier only blocked with one arm.
The massive force slammed into him, only making Javier take a single step back; he easily caught Diego the Bio-Monster's blow.
Pulling out a bone spur, he twisted it directly into a blade this time.
The sharp blade part swung out fiercely, forming a beautiful arc as it quickly sliced toward Diego the Bio-Monster's neck.
"Roar—!!!!!!"
Sensing danger, Bio-monster Diego let out a low growl and quickly retreated several steps, dodging the attack.
Despite being just a small human, it had to be admitted that Javier gave Diego the Bio-Monster a very strong sense of threat.
Like a hornet, seemingly small in body.
But the venomous sting at the tail can inflict great pain on enemies; this was exactly how Diego the Bio-Monster felt at this moment.
Unfortunately,
He was still mistaken on one point, because Javier was no mere hornet—though it wasn't entirely wrong to say so.
But rather, the size needed to be scaled up a bit more.
If Diego the Bio-Monster was a rhinoceros, then Javier was a hornet as big as a rhinoceros; such a ratio would be correct, otherwise, Javier's power couldn't be fully highlighted.
"Whoosh...!"
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh—!!!!!!"
Even so,
Javier still didn't slow down his offensive frequency; the bone spurs in his palm indeed danced wildly like venomous needles.
Constantly attacking Bio-monster Diego's body, before long, on Diego's muscular frame,
Numerous small cuts appeared, bleeding profusely, as if he had been stung by a swarm of hornets.
Fortunately,
These dense needle-like wounds were the result of Javier intentionally holding back; otherwise, with Javier's speed,
Poking holes in lethal areas like Diego the Bio-Monster's head or heart wouldn't have been difficult.
He just wanted the game to last a little longer.
After all, such suitable combat prey didn't come along often—not too strong, not too weak, very suitable for training.
"Father, wait for me, I'm coming to support you...!!!"
At this time,
Maria, unable to watch any longer, immediately rushed forward with her injured limb to help; father and daughter working together could overcome any obstacle.
Her intact right hand snapped the whip in her hand, the long whip tip striking toward Javier's body like a spear.
Meanwhile, Bio-monster Diego took the opportunity to clench his fists, leapt high after gathering strength, and smashed down with thunderous force, the momentum being terrifying.
"Snap—!"
The sneak attack of the long whip was useless, caught firmly by Javier's palm, with no possibility of breaking free.
But the heavy double-fisted hammer blow landed accurately on Javier.
This time, the terrifying power of the hands was too much for Javier to parry, sending him back dozens of steps, though he still didn't take much damage.
"Father, the situation has changed, let's retreat. Staying here to fight might lead to complications. That guy isn't simple; we can't fight recklessly!"
Seeing Javier pushed back several meters to a safe distance, Maria didn't hesitate and immediately turned to advise her father, Diego the Bio-Monster.
Because Javier, this human, was simply too eerie; Maria had every reason to suspect this guy was actually a living bio-monster.
One even more terrifying than her and her father.
Therefore, they couldn't stay here any longer, or the ones killed later might very well be the two of them.
Thus, the best way was to take this opportunity to escape.
Of the thirty-six stratagems, fleeing is the best; after all, they only came to take Rebecca away and didn't want to lose their lives for it.
"Roar—!!!!"
Hearing his daughter's command, Bio-monster Diego growled with dissatisfaction but was very obedient.
He immediately lifted his daughter Maria with one hand and placed her on his shoulder, then turned and ran without hesitation.
With no desire to fight, and running very fast.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the dim corridor, crashing through glass to leave the Institute...!
Volume 10: Resident Evil Village: vendetta - Chapter 9: Glenn Arias
"They escaped?"
Looking at the broken glass at the end of the Institute corridor,
And the disappearing figures of Bio-monster Diego and Maria, Rebecca and Bucky stood there dazed and murmured.
They didn't expect these two killers to run so fast.
Nor did they expect them to be so decisive; it was quite bizarre.
They had met with such confidence, saying they would take her away, but in the blink of an eye, they vanished, which was strangely contrasting and funny.
"What a pity..."
On the other side,
Javier looked at the disappearing figures and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Such a good training partner, gone just like that. If he had known, Javier wouldn't have held back just now.
He should have tried to cut off Bio-monster Diego's legs first to limit their mobility.
Then trap them inside the Institute for a final stand.
If he felt threatened, Diego the Bio-Monster would surely release his limiter.
And fuse with his daughter Maria; the new Tyrant monster born then might have given Javier a bit more fun.
"Javier, are you okay...?!"
Seeing the danger was truly over, Rebecca, who had come to her senses, hurried over to Javier and asked with concern.
While Sissy Becky behind her was somewhat afraid.
He didn't dare get too close, fearing Javier might do something dangerous.
After all, the power Javier had just shown was incredible; Bucky couldn't help but wonder if Javier was also a monster.
"I'm fine, let's leave here first. The commotion just now was huge; more infected zombies will probably gather toward us soon."
Shaking his head, Javier said he was fine.
He then prepared to lead Rebecca and Bucky out of the Institute. Javier was right.
The zombies in the Institute had indeed heard the sounds of battle.
So they had begun to move toward the first-floor corridor; staying any longer would only lead to being surrounded by zombies, with no benefit.
As for these infected zombie staff members, they couldn't just be left alone.
After all, the number of infected zombies in New York City wasn't high yet.
Glenn hadn't truly spread the gas throughout New York yet, so it would be very troublesome if these infected zombies escaped!
"Rebecca, use your phone to contact the BSAA and the US Government's Leon to clean up the mess. I'll go block the laboratory doors."
To prevent these zombies from sneaking out and infecting innocent civilians, Javier didn't hesitate and instructed Rebecca as they reached the entrance.
Then Javier immediately slammed the entire laboratory door shut.
He quickly broke off the door handle, then looked around, saw some chairs outside, and moved them all to block the main entrance.
He even pulled a car over and wedged it in.
After doing all this, Javier nodded in satisfaction. As for the fragile glass parts, Javier couldn't manage those.
He couldn't possibly block all the Institute's windows.
It was impossible; there were too many and it was too troublesome. This was enough—it would block what it could.
"..."
So fierce; the two couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
Was this really something a human could do? What normal person could pull a car to the Institute's entrance and wedge it in?
But complaints aside,
Rebecca hurriedly took out the laptop from her backpack and sent an emergency contact to the US Government and BSAA via email.
A regular phone couldn't contact the US Government or BSAA unless calling a specific member's number.
Like Chris; otherwise, a normal report call probably wouldn't reach the ears of the US Government and BSAA high-ups.
Fortunately, as a doctor of biology, Rebecca had her own special contact methods.
She wouldn't be treated as a prank caller by the operator and hung up on; after all, few would believe a bio-virus infection was happening in New York.
Javier could actually contact Leon and Chris immediately.
Because he had their private contact info, but Javier didn't want to reveal his whereabouts, so it was better to let Rebecca report it.
"Javier..."
"Where should we go next?"
After finishing the contact, Rebecca and Bucky now looked at Javier and asked.
Although they were out of danger, they didn't seem to have a suitable place to go yet.
Because they didn't know if more killers would come to assassinate them during the night.
Therefore, they needed a safe environment to spend the night.
Javier was currently the backbone for Rebecca and Bucky, so the choice of where to stay was left to him.
"..."
"We'll just go to the best five-star hotel in New York. I've just finished work, and I'll treat you both to a big meal as promised. How about it?"
However,
Compared to the fear felt by Rebecca and Bucky,
Javier seemed very calm and suggested an unbelievable place to stay.
They thought they would hide in some obscure corner tonight to get through it, but they didn't expect Javier to be completely unafraid of Glenn, the villain, sending more killers.
Instead, he planned to openly go to a five-star hotel in the city center for a big meal. At this moment, Rebecca and Bucky couldn't help but marvel at Javier's boldness.
But thinking back to the power Javier had shown earlier,
It seemed understandable.
Because Javier didn't seem to fear any sudden attacks from killers; he had absolute confidence in nipping all danger in the bud.
"..."
"This... alright..."
Seeing the confident smile on Javier's face, Rebecca and Bucky looked at each other.
In the end, they nodded silently and reluctantly agreed.
But the look of fear on their faces didn't disappear at all; they were still very afraid of Javier's choice.
"By the way, Javier,"
"Can I ask you a question? It's about the superhuman power you just showed. I've heard that the bio-virus can cause evolution,"
"And thus grant such extraordinary superhuman strength. Are you... Sorry, if you don't want to answer, that's fine. Just act like I never said anything."
Just as the three were about to leave,
Rebecca suddenly stopped, pulled on Javier's sleeve, and couldn't help but ask.
