Chapter 32 Brother and sister reunion, mutant Steve
Many of the electronic doors in the institute that were originally locked seemed to have been unlocked at this moment because of Alexia's revival.
After exploring several doors that he had been unable to enter before, Yang Ren came to a Western-style house.
That’s right, it’s another Western-style mansion.
There is actually a Western-style mansion like the one on Rockford Island in the Antarctic Research Institute.
When I pushed the door open, I just saw a man in a green uniform rescuing Claire who was pinned to the wall.
When the man heard the door open, he immediately turned Claire behind him and aimed his gun at Yang Ren with smooth movements.
"you are?"
After seeing who was coming, the other party narrowed his eyes.
Sunglasses, nightgown, why does he look a bit like Wesker?
"Nicholas Young."
Yang Ren said:
"Chris?"
It was she who saved Claire and traveled thousands of miles to Rockford Island. After discovering that Claire had left, she drove a fighter jet to the Antarctic Research Institute to chase her.
Claire's brother, Chris Redfield.
"I've heard about you."
"I heard you saved my sister in Raccoon City?"
Seeing that the other party was not an enemy, Chris put the pistol back into the holster and said.
In response, Yang Ren raised his head slightly and replied:
"Maybe I saved her, maybe she saved me."
Chris looked at Yang Ren in confusion.
Claire was carried to the stairs, and after a few shakes, she woke up quickly.
"Chris! I was so worried!"
The brother whom she hadn't seen for several months finally showed up, and Claire hugged Chris excitedly.
The brother and sister were finally reunited.
"You worried me to death, what little girl can run around like you?"
Chris touched Claire's head and said with a smile.
"How did you get here?"
Claire asked after the hug broke apart.
"Leon and Elliot contacted me."
After all, Elliot was a veteran police officer of the Raccoon City Police Department, so it was understandable that he had Chris's contact information.
"Listen, Claire, we can talk about this later. The most important thing is to get out of here."
But Claire suddenly remembered something:
"Wait, Steve is still trapped here, we can't leave him here alone."
“…Steve?”
Chris wondered.
"Ok?"
Claire's eyes suddenly stopped behind Chris.
Chris also noticed Claire's gaze and looked back.
In the middle of the second floor, a blonde girl in a purple dress was squatting on the ground, holding the stairs and looking at them.
"Hahaha…"
The other party let out a series of wanton, strange, and somewhat childish laughter.
Yang Ren looked at Alexia's beautiful yet childish face and was stunned for five seconds.
As expected, Veronica has both talent and beauty.
It truly lives up to its reputation.
Her looks cannot be said to be a disaster, but she is still better than 99.9% of the world's population.
But it only lasted five seconds.
He turned and glanced at Claire beside him.
Really, not even a hair as good as my little Claire.
The two people's personalities are completely different.
A man with a very high IQ, but who wants to use the whole world to experiment with the Veronica virus.
A sensible and considerate one, cute and kind, fragrant and soft, who can act coquettishly and clingy, can play with guns and fight, and likes motorcycles.
Also love cheeseburgers.
A clear distinction between superior and inferior.
"You are...Alexia?!"
Recalling the portrait she had seen on Rockford Island before, Claire immediately revealed the other person's identity.
"Oh? You know my name?"
Alexia stood up, still with a playful smile on her face.
"Didn't you die 15 years ago?"
Claire wondered.
"No~ I just slept for 15 years and merged with the Veronica virus."
Alexia shook her head in denial.
"…Veronica virus?"
Claire frowned when she heard this strange yet familiar name.
Is this another brand new virus developed by Umbrella?
"I say, how about we do an experiment on the Veronica virus together? Your friends are waiting for you in the arena~"
Alexia said jokingly.
After saying this, she let out a series of strange and wanton laughs, then turned and walked into a door on the second floor.
"Hey! Wait!"
The three people below immediately set out to chase Alexia.
However, on the wall beside, a huge python vine broke through the wall and stretched out.
The python vine collapsed the passage with one blow, and a large amount of rocks fell down with Chris, who was walking at the end, and crushed one of his legs.
"Chris! Are you okay?!"
Claire shouted to Chris below.
Chris below was holding his injured leg and seemed unable to move for the time being.
"Don't worry about me, go save Steve!"
Yang Ren and Claire had no choice but to leave Chris behind and set off.
In the research institute, which originally only had some large fluttering moths, a large number of flying ant-like insects suddenly appeared.
There were so many of them that they densely covered the entire ceiling.
Along the way, python vines would occasionally break through the wall and come out, blocking the two people's progress.
However, the two soon came to a grille iron gate and saw Steve in front of them.
He was confined to a stone chair, his back against a large stone pillar, and his head was stuck in the middle of a huge double-edged axe.
"Steve!"
The grille gate rose and Claire ran toward Steve.
"Don't come over here! Back off!"
Steve shouted immediately when he heard the two's voices.
The distance of more than ten meters was reached in an instant. Claire walked forward and tried to pry the huge double-edged axe that was stuck on Steve's head.
Not moving.
"I was implanted by that woman...it should be called the Veronica virus..."
"She wanted to test...whether I would obey her orders..."
"Claire…she wanted to see if I would kill you!"
Now that he was here, Steve also explained the reason.
"what…!"
Just as Yang Ren was about to step forward and pull out the axe, Steve suddenly screamed, grabbed his chest with both hands, and looked painful.
“I don’t want to…!”
“…Kill you!”
As Steve's veins bulged and undercurrents surged beneath his skin, he suddenly stretched out his right hand and grabbed the double-edged axe in front of his neck.
His body began to swell, and several cracks appeared on the stone pillars behind him. He pulled out the huge double-edged axe with one hand and picked it up.
At this moment, Steve has turned into a green monster.
All his clothes were torn, leaving only a pair of shorts.
Several bone spurs grew on his left shoulder, his neck became longer, his teeth became sharper, and only his hair retained some of its original characteristics.
"How...how could it be..."
Claire stepped back in disbelief.
Yang Ren looked around.
There are cage-like iron gates on all sides, making it look like an arena.
However, there is a large suspended ceiling above, and you can walk up along the broken stairs.
Overhead, Alexia, in a purple dress, watched the scene below with interest.
Steve picked up a huge double-edged axe and swept towards him. Yang Ren immediately grabbed Claire, who was standing there in a daze, and dived to avoid it.
Bang-!
The double-edged axe was embedded in the stone brick wall next to it, with half of the axe blade cut into it.
"Claire! Run up!"
Yang Ren threw Claire onto the platform above his head and let her leave first, while he kept distracting Steve's attention.
Claire simply leaned over to take a look at the two people fighting fiercely below, then resolutely walked up the stairs.
Steve has such a huge body, but his speed is totally inconsistent with this body.
The giant axe kept falling, and Yang Ren tried his best to dodge it. He didn't want to hurt Steve.
Feeling that the time was almost up, Yang Ren looked up.
Claire had walked up the stairs to three-quarters of the top of the arena and was about to reach the ventilation vent.
Using the protruding bricks on the wall and the broken stairs, Yang Ren ran up quickly and soon came to Claire's side.
Steve below suddenly leaned down, jumped, dug his claws into the wall, and caught up.
With his terrifying jumping ability, Steve quickly came to the two of them.
The axe chopped off the stairs in front of her, and Claire lost her balance and fell down screaming:
"what!"
Yang Ren immediately jumped out, caught Claire in the air and held her tightly, then turned over and fell to the ground with her back just before landing.
Snapped--!
pain!
The pain is like burning fire!
Feeling the intense pain coming from his back, Yang Ren's expression immediately turned into a mask of pain.
It really feels like falling from 3,4 or floors.
Steve above their heads took advantage of the momentum and kicked forward, and his huge body leaped down with a double-edged axe with destructive force, chopping towards the two men.
Yang Ren immediately pushed Claire aside and rolled to the other side to avoid it.
Bang!
When the first axe attack failed, Steve pulled out the giant axe again and chased Yang Ren who was rolling on the ground and chopped him repeatedly.
The latter rolled over to dodge several axes, then jumped up with one hand on the ground and kicked Steve in the chin.
Steve's huge body suddenly staggered backwards.
Taking this opportunity, Yang Ren quickly stood up and distanced himself, spitting bloody saliva, and took off his sunglasses:
"Don't make me beat you, kid!"
