Rebecca also hurriedly rose slowly from her chair.
Although she had just woken up and the hypnotic drugs still lingering in her system made her body uncoordinated and her steps unsteady, it didn't matter.
Even so, Rebecca gritted her teeth and forced herself to stand, attempting to escape this hellhole; no matter what, she could not become this madman's wife.
"Sarah, where are you going? Quick... put on the ring, stop messing around!"
However, at this moment, Glenn had already fallen into a state of obsession.
Looking at Rebecca before him, whose face looked more and more like Sarah's, Glenn had completely mistaken Rebecca for his wife, Sarah.
Therefore, he kept calling out her name.
At the same time, seeing Rebecca about to flee, Glenn grabbed her wrist, attempting to force the ring onto her finger.
"Get... get away! Stay away from me, don't come near me—!!!!"
*Clatter...*
Rebecca's reaction was even more intense.
Like a woman of fierce chastity, Rebecca would not allow her purity to be defiled in any way.
Watching Glenn draw closer and seeing the ring he tried to force onto her ring finger, Rebecca jerked her arm back with force.
She quickly shook off Glenn's hand.
At the same time, she swatted the ring away, which flew to the floor with a crisp metallic sound.
Because he didn't have a firm grip, Glenn dropped not only the ring but even the blackened arm of his late fiancée, Sarah, which rolled onto the floor.
"..."
Looking at the glittering ring on the floor, and the blackened arm of his fiancée, Sarah, Glenn suddenly snapped out of his fantasy.
Because the Rebecca in front of him was not his wife Sarah; that discarded arm and the ring were.
Of course...
More importantly, Rebecca's act of swatting away the corpse of his fiancée Sarah's arm
was the outrageous move that completely infuriated Glenn. He would not allow this substitute, Rebecca, to dare treat his beloved wife Sarah this way.
*Slap—!!!*
Without any hesitation, a hideous expression surfaced on the enraged Glenn's face.
He raised his hand and slapped Rebecca hard across the face. With a sharp crack, Rebecca was knocked off balance.
She couldn't help but fall toward the ground.
A red mark appeared on her fair, pretty face.
But Rebecca felt no sense of grievance; instead, she stared straight at Glenn with a look of indignation, her spirit still unyielding and strong.
"Bitch... you foul whore!"
"Since you refuse to cooperate, don't blame me for being ruthless. Just watch—all of New York will be completely turned into a city of zombies under my a-virus."
"As for you... since you won't be my wife, you'll get a taste of the a-virus. It's made using the Plaga parasite; you should know how terrifying the Plaga parasite is."
"It will parasitize your body and make you unconditionally obey any order from the one in command. When that happens, I'll make you listen to me like a puppet!"
A crazed look appeared on his face.
Glenn looked at Rebecca sprawled on the ground without a shred of pity, speaking in a vicious tone.
He had made up his mind; if Rebecca wouldn't cooperate willingly, then he would just use other methods to make her comply.
After all, as a former heinous Arms Dealer, he had ten thousand ways to make a woman cooperate, including various serums and drugs to numb the nerves.
He would force Rebecca to obey his commands. If she remained stubborn, Glenn could always inject the Plaga parasite into her.
"Madman..."
Hearing Glenn's words, a fleeting look of terror and paleness crossed Rebecca's face, but it soon returned to calm as she cursed Glenn with a face full of loathing and hatred.
Hearing the various methods Glenn just mentioned, Rebecca was indeed very afraid, but as soon as she thought of Javier Li, her heart quickly calmed down.
Because she firmly believed that Javier Li would definitely come to save her.
Because no matter what, Javier Li would never abandon her. He didn't abandon her in Raccoon City, and he certainly wouldn't abandon her now.
And in fact, that was indeed the case.
While Rebecca was suffering, Javier Li had already arrived at Glenn's Bottled Water Company... across the street.
That's right.
He was on the rooftop of the building opposite.
After all, trying to reach Glenn's office from the first-floor lobby was completely impossible.
Aside from the lobby below and the normal office areas on the upper floors, from the middle floors upward, almost everything had been privately converted by Glenn into a research base.
It stored a large number of zombies and was guarded by security. Trying to simply take the elevator up would be extremely difficult, and most importantly, it would be a waste of time.
To save time on dealing with zombies and security personnel,
Javier Li set his sights on the rooftop of the skyscraper next to Glenn's Bottled Water Company, where no one would stop him.
He could easily reach the top floor via the fire escape.
Javier Li's plan was to use a Grappling Hook Gun to fire a line to the rooftop of Glenn's Bottled Water Company.
Once the two were connected,
Javier Li could cross over to the rooftop of Glenn's company via the rope and then search floor by floor from the top down. That way, he could find the captured Rebecca.
Therefore, a short while later, many sharp-eyed office workers on the ground quickly noticed something wrong above their heads.
A figure resembling Spider-Man was between the rooftops of the two skyscrapers, using a rope to build a bridge, and was nimbly and quickly traversing the steel cable, a performance even more thrilling than tightrope walking.
Because Javier Li didn't use a pole for balance at all; he simply walked across rapidly. This Superman-like feat drew gasps of amazement.
But in reality, with the power of the virus, Javier Li's sense of balance was maxed out; even walking a tightrope, he was several times better than those stunt performers!
...
"Safely arrived at the destination..."
In less than ten minutes,
Javier Li had entered the interior of Glenn's Bottled Water Company. It was indeed different from what was shown on the outside.
There were no so-called offices;
it was all enclosed corridors and various densely packed sealed rooms joined together, most of which held experimental subjects turned into zombies.
Javier Li could even hear low hissing sounds coming from inside.
Besides that, there were security personnel stationed in the dim corridors, wearing body armor and equipped with standard assault rifles.
Upon seeing Javier Li, a stranger, suddenly appear in the corridor, they instantly fixed their gaze on him.
Because they never expected that a stranger could possibly break into the interior of the laboratory base.
One should know that the lower levels were guarded by specialized security, and there was only one elevator entrance to come up.
How did this stranger, Javier Li, bypass the layers of checks to sneak into the laboratory?
This was the most core and secret part of the Bottled Water Company; even some employees who came to work every day never knew of the laboratory's existence.
"Halt!"
"Who are you? How did you get in here...!"
Without any hesitation, the moment they saw the stranger Javier Li, the security personnel guarding the corridor immediately shouted a stern rebuke.
At the same time, they immediately flipped the safeties on their assault rifles and chambered rounds, entering a firing state. They were all subordinates of Glenn, the former Arms Dealer boss.
Their backgrounds were all as Mercenaries,
so they knew about their boss's dealings
and had experience in killing. Thus, facing the stranger Javier Li, they could be said to have their vigilance at the absolute maximum.
But unfortunately,
Javier Li was an existence even more terrifying than a Mercenary.
When he said he could speed-run this building in half an hour, he was definitely not lying.
Therefore, facing the warnings of these Mercenaries, Javier Li didn't take them seriously at all.
He leisurely took out that signature Desert Eagle from his waist and unhurriedly reloaded it with a fresh magazine.
"..."
"He has a pistol, open fire—!!!!"
When those few Mercenaries saw the Desert Eagle in Javier Li's hand,
their expressions changed instantly. With almost no hesitation, they resolutely raised their assault rifles to fire.
In this laboratory, nearly a dozen homeless people were brought in every day to be subjects for virus infection, so these Mercenaries were also very decisive about killing, quickly pulling their triggers.
*Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang—!!!!!!*
A burst of intense and dense gunfire rang out.
Bullets like raindrops swept in instantly. In the dim corridor, the muzzle flashes were extremely bright and clear.
Facing this hail of bullets,
Javier Li activated his ability almost the instant the bullets were about to reach his body.
The explosive power of the virus was triggered, the muscles in his legs tensed, and an almost anti-human scene occurred. Facing one side of the smooth wall,
Javier Li leaped up in a few steps, jumping to the top of the wall and hanging upside down like a bat, narrowly dodging all the bullet fire.
*Boom boom boom—!!!!*
Only after the assault rifle fire ceased did Javier Li slowly jump down from the top of the wall.
Taking the opportunity, he pulled the trigger of his Desert Eagle. With several loud gunshots, three or four Mercenaries instantly fell to the ground, each hit in the heart.
They died on the spot. Javier Li could have gone for headshots, but considering the scene would be too bloody, shooting the heart was better; it wouldn't spray blood everywhere.
