For the past four months, she had been in the lab, monitoring him, never leaving his side. It was truly exhausting; for a proud queen, guarding a man for so long was quite unexpected.
"Thank you," Eddie said sincerely.
Alexia paused, "From now on, it's your turn to guard me. I am your queen, and you are my only knight."
His only knight? Interesting!
After tidying up, Eddie went to check on Jill, Annette, and the others.
Seeing that Eddie was fine, everyone was relieved. Being safe and sound was the best outcome. They could now live for two or three hundred years and didn't want anything to happen to their husband.
Women are simple and straightforward; they would never harbor the dirty thoughts of men, like getting promoted, getting rich, and their wives dying.
Annette also gave birth to a beautiful daughter, whom she named Chelsea. It was her own choice. This was her precious daughter, and she would treat her just as she treated Sherry.
Wolf Mother Ruper also gave birth to a beautiful daughter, named Hailey, because she was born on an island in the Atlantic Ocean. Wolf Mother, after giving birth, seemed very languid, as if she had transformed from a fierce warrior into a housewife.
After doting on his three daughters, Eddie felt his responsibilities growing heavier. In the future, besides supporting his wives, he would also have to support his daughters. If he didn't work hard to earn money, he might not even be able to afford diapers.
Returning to the lab, the pretty Rebecca, with her big belly, was still observing data in front of the computer. She was responsible for vaccine research and development, possessing a unique talent and inspiration for vaccine production.
The once pretty goddess Rebecca was now a standard pregnant mother. This did not diminish her charm at all; instead, it made her appear more mature.
"You should rest more, even when pregnant." Eddie handed her a cup of black tea.
Rebecca smiled sweetly, "Because I'm not tired! We're not ordinary people, you know. Hehe, I heard you succeeded! You're really amazing; I truly didn't misjudge you."
"I was always worried that you wouldn't understand me. After all, after the Mansion incident, I could tell that you and Jill were disgusted by the virus. Now it seems I was overthinking it." Eddie chuckled, looking at Rebecca's big belly, a subtle sense of pride swelling in his heart. A goddess giving him children—how could he not be boastful?
"No, not at all. You're different from those people. Others only see the virus as a weapon, but you see it as a key to human evolution. The starting point and methods are different. It's like people who use guns; some are soldiers, while others are just bandits." Rebecca smiled sweetly. She would always support her husband.
"Alright, let me see the latest news. You should rest well and not overwork yourself." Eddie waved his hand after speaking and sat down at the computer to check the latest news.
He hadn't touched a computer for four months and had no news from the outside world. He wondered if anything new had happened, or if that little rascal had caused trouble during this time.
Alexia was organizing the data from this reinforcement, in preparation for the next one. She also yearned for more powerful abilities, especially the current properties, which seemed incredible but had truly succeeded!
Chapter 399: Pregnant Excella
The pharmaceutical companies cooperating with Umbrella signed contracts with the Western Federation, ensuring they wouldn't be prosecuted and would stand on the side of the victims. Coupled with the media's offensive, Umbrella's collapse was inevitable, having lost its biggest advantage.
Spencer, who had foreseen this, still took the opportunity to recover most of his funds, selling off the company's assets at a low price.
Despite Alex tricking him out of half of his funds, Spencer was still very wealthy. The wealth accumulated over half a century, even half of it, was enough to ensure he lived comfortably.
The remaining funds were injected by Spencer into the Caucasus Branch, in an attempt to rise again.
Interestingly, although Sergei was very loyal to Spencer, he harbored thoughts of reviving Tsarist Russia. It used to be a joke, but now with the T-ALOS Project, tyrants in heavy armor equipped with heavy laser weapons could directly confront armies.
Winning this battle was not impossible, and Sergei's target was the Eastern Slav Republic, a nation in Eastern Europe, which had historically been within the former Tsarist Russian sphere of influence.
What was amusing was that Tricell had another scandal. Its experimental personnel had fled, planned by Wesker and William over three months. They were transferred by ship, and the lab was emptied through a terrorist organization's channels.
The armed personnel were killed, and some direct descendants of the Travis Family, who were supervising there, were found to be dismembered beyond recognition when discovered.
This enraged Anruka greatly. After the Umbrella Corporation's downfall, it should have been Tricell's stage, but it suffered such a significant blow. It wasn't enough to be critically wounded, but it would sting for a while.
No one knew where William and Wesker went, but they certainly wouldn't be developing near the Atlantic Ocean.
Eddie drank coffee, looking at the latest news. "Wesker, that three-faced servant, actually betrayed them again! How interesting."
Aside from Tricell suffering heavy losses, the Western Federation had no issues whatsoever. Instead, Simmons proposed a treaty for using controllable biological weapons to eliminate soldiers. Initially, it was voted to use these monsters to clear out the bombed Raccoon City.
It seemed that after four months of silence, only Tricell had some problems; other forces were completely still.
"A representative from Shén Yà Pharmaceutical approached me before, wanting me to participate in the research of a special weapon. Unlike traditional weapons, this is a project that aims to eliminate the largest number of enemies with the smallest cost. I found it quite interesting and didn't refuse, waiting for you to wake up to decide." Excella walked over, elegantly clicking her high heels.
At this time, Excella was already a standard pregnant woman, and her aristocratic lady's aura made her appear even more uniquely charming.
"We can provide funding, but don't get involved directly. We don't need to risk joining; just treat it as a real estate investment, removing the risk. When necessary, we can profit without any capital." Eddie instructed.
Letting others do the research and then taking the credit—wasn't that what he often did?
"Furthermore, we found that Umbrella indeed has another very secret research branch in the Caucasus. Also, there are no signs of anyone entering the branch in Africa. Both research branches are currently unknown to anyone." Excella continued to report.
Her beautiful eyes flickered with a hint of pride. Excella knew she was an ambitious woman, and she also knew her husband didn't particularly like her assertive nature. However, she was very clever, always appearing submissive in front of her husband. Any arrogance or haughtiness was reserved for outsiders. This approach indeed made her less disliked.
"Just wait. I don't really have high hopes for his T-ALOS Project, but it's good for adding a bit of difficulty for Simmons. Oh, and which organization helped Wesker and them escape?" Eddie casually glanced at Excella's big belly. This made him a little proud; no matter how proud a goddess was, she still obediently bore his children.
"The Grey Hound Organization, a radical environmentalist group. Before, they were composed of people who loved nature and opposed ocean resource development. About two years ago, this organization became increasingly radical, and after some kind-hearted individuals left, it turned into a terrorist organization," Excella explained.
"It's pretty much as I expected," Eddie nodded.
"Husband, have you also been following this organization?" Excella didn't know her husband was aware of the plot; otherwise, she wouldn't have been manipulated step by step into being forced to marry him.
"Not much, I just heard about it. Alright, you rest well. The rest of the matters will be handled by Christine. She's been doing well lately. What do you think of her?" Eddie's expression was somewhat playful.
Excella, however, smiled seductively, "If she bears a child for husband, it would be even easier to gain trust."
For the next month, Eddie was adapting to his abilities. At the same time, Jessica and Lisa were his sparring partners; having been enhanced together, both women also gained current abilities.
The most powerfully enhanced among them was Lisa, who perfectly integrated everything, transforming it into a part of herself.
There was a pond on the north side of the island, where Turritopsis dohrnii were kept for research. The phenomenon of reverse growth, coupled with the endless division of cancer cells, was the key to eternal life.
The news world seemed much calmer recently. After Umbrella's collapse, there wasn't much news to report, apart from occasionally rehashing old stories to gain attention, or celebrity gossip.
As an active journalist, Alyssa had been dormant for a long time. It wasn't that she was lazy, but as a pregnant woman, she didn't have that much energy.
It turned out that when parents were New Humans enhanced by the virus, the babies born were also similarly enhanced, having been strengthened from the fetal stage.
Many of the common problems with infants were also reduced, making them very easy to care for. As long as they were fed and watered, the little ones would sleep, growing rapidly under their unique physiological system.
Jill's slight annoyance was that her daughter, at only four months old, was already starting to walk, growing very quickly. The mischievous child was becoming more and more playful; at just four months, she was developing at the rate of a two or three-year-old, which was a bit exaggerated and fast.
She once thought something was wrong, but it was actually just due to rapid metabolism. And after the number of cell divisions broke through the upper limit, there would be no defect of a short lifespan, so there was no need to worry about premature death.
Chapter 400: Carla's Revenge Plan
Sergei, at Spencer's behest, was preparing to unveil Umbrella's latest research on this cruise ship: a controllable Tyrant, and armored Hunters.
As he needed to guard the Caucasus Branch, Sergei entrusted this task to his colleague, Nikolai Zinoviev, who, like him, also loved Tsarist Russia.
A ruthless special forces instructor, skilled in using schemes and traps against enemies. Having lost his manhood in Raccoon City, Nikolai harbored intense hatred for the people of the Western Federation.
Sergei and Nikolai were both officers of Tsarist Russia, and they shared a ridiculous dream: to revive Tsarist Russia.
