Chapter 66: Opening the Way Through the Mountains
"Follow me and stay alert."
Leon called out and floated "slowly" forward.
To be honest, his current casual attire does look a bit weird when flying.
It feels like a high school student working hard in school and finding time to save the world.
The sewers are very close to Umbrella's laboratory.
Along the way, in the turbid sewage and on the mossy cave walls.
Strange mutated creatures kept jumping out and attacking everyone.
Some of them have one half of their bodies like a giant corpse, and the other half like a person infected by a giant leech.
Some are one-meter-long sewer insects, and some are huge mutant crocodiles that are ten to twenty meters long.
God knows how Umbrella turned an ordinary sewer into one with more biodiversity than the Rinkai in Japan.
These monsters are not only dangerous, but also numerous.
Normally, even if a small team of special forces came, there would be a risk of being annihilated.
But Leon flew ahead of everyone.
When you encounter a monster, beat it; when you encounter a wall, destroy it.
No monster could block his punch, and no wall could stop him for even a second.
The group had a smooth journey.
Except for the somewhat unacceptable environment, it's almost like going on a hike here.
Even King Ada, who had been extremely vigilant, only had time to shoot and kill a zombie fish that was pretending to be dead.
Other than that, she didn't manage to grab any monsters.
"Our Mr. Lyon really makes us feel safe. I admit that he is an absolute gentleman."
King Ada spoke words of praise, but wrung out her skirt with some disgust.
At this time, everyone came to a sewage treatment pool platform.
There are all water buildings here, and large sewage treatment machines are running continuously, making rumbling sounds.
They finally got rid of the sewage temporarily.
Marvin used a flashlight to illuminate the surroundings and could see stinking corpses in some corners.
"Look at these people. Some are wearing lab coats, and some are wearing combat uniforms. Umbrella really has a huge scientific research base here."
Elliot also gritted his teeth: "This city is under their control! These parasites deserve to die!"
"Capital holds power. Isn't that the characteristic of this country?" King Ada followed Leon nonchalantly. "Isn't that right, sir?"
Leon didn’t respond, took a few steps, and suddenly said, “Back off!”
"What?" King Ada was stunned.
Before she could react, Leon in front of her had already grabbed her arm and pulled her to his side.
The next second, she heard a sound of breaking air behind her. Turning back, she saw a giant mutant insect with its mouth wide open flying past her previous position.
The insect failed in its sneak attack and tried to escape, but was hit by Leon's whip kick and smashed into the wall, exploding into insect juice.
“……”King Ada was a little scared.
“Thank you.” She half leaned on Leon, supported by his arm and backed away, only to find that the arm felt like marble.
I couldn't help but sigh: "Nice figure!"
Leon raised his eyebrows: “I think so too, but you owe me one.”
"Girls won't like conceited men." King Ada raised the corner of his mouth.
"That's hard to say." Lyon continued walking forward.
Going further into the sewage treatment area is the monitoring room.
Through the glass, everyone could see a large platform at the other end of the monitoring room.
An armored cable car was parked on the platform.
"We're here," Leon said. "We can take the cable car to the institute."
"Thank God, we're finally here." Director Bud had the worst physical strength and he was already exhausted.
He took the initiative to open the door, but the iron door of the monitoring room was locked tightly.
"It's locked," Bud said.
So everyone looked at Leon.
"Let me do it, I can unlock it, please, Leon, you can't always..." Ada Wong walked forward and took out the lock-picking tools.
However, before she could finish her words, Leon had already pushed the iron door and the surrounding walls to the ground with one palm.
The two looked at each other.
Leon spread his hands innocently: "Maybe next time you can tell me in advance that you can open the lock."
"Just pretend I didn't say anything." Wong Ada put away the props.
"Then let's go and take the cable car." Leon turned his head and looked at the hidden corner in the monitoring room.
"Ma'am, if you're planning on taking a ride with us, you can come out now."
Everyone was shocked. There was someone else here?
Suddenly, all the guns were raised in unison, aiming in the direction Leon was looking.
There, a thin middle-aged woman with sunken eye sockets walked out.
She was wearing a white research coat and pointed a pistol at everyone.
"Police? You shouldn't be here. The only people left in the institute are the infected. You'd better leave now!"
She stared at everyone and issued a warning.
"Anni Birkin!" At this time, King Ada stepped forward with guns in both hands and confronted her.
"You and your husband are the creators of the virus and the culprits of this disaster!"
"There is no need for hypocrisy."
She warned sternly: "Now, hand over the G virus!"
At the same time, Ada did not forget to explain to Leon: "My purpose in coming here is to destroy Umbrella. The G virus is far more dangerous than the T virus. It must not be left in the hands of this woman."
Everyone looked back and forth at the two of them, feeling that the situation was somewhat complicated.
Director Bud hadn't even heard of the G-Virus.
When Annie Birkin heard the word G-virus, her eyes changed instantly and became sinister.
"I see, you are here for the G-Virus as well."
She smiled contemptuously, "Don't even think about it."
Under the cover of the voices, she took the opportunity to throw a grenade and then shot at Ada.
"Not good, dangerous!"
Marvin and the other policemen rushed to Leon immediately, trying to knock him down and block the explosion for him.
However, Leon dodged it, grabbed the grenade with his left hand, and pulled Ada Wong with his right hand.
The bullet grazed Ada's arm.
A few seconds later, there was a muffled sound, and Leon spread out his left hand, shaking off a few strands of black ash and debris, and his palm was still clean and fresh.
“This, this!?”
Everyone was stunned. He covered the thunder with his palm but there was no injury at all. Who is this person?
On the other side, Annie Birkin, who was about to leave the monitoring room, was also stunned.
She felt that even her husband, who had become a monster, could not do such a thing.
Leon glanced at the stunned Annie, took a few steps forward, grabbed her, and threw her to Marvin.
"Control her, and we'll go to the research institute."
Several people looked at each other and followed Leon onto the platform.
King Ada hesitated and wanted to say something, but when he thought of Leon's action of extinguishing the grenade just now, he didn't want to say anything.
On the platform.
Walk to the cable car.
Everyone discovered that the operation of the cable car requires the use of staff identity bracelets.
After coming to her senses, Annie Birkin smiled smugly: "I will never give you the authority bracelet, so just give up!"
"Um, Mr. Lyon?" Marvin and the others looked at Lyon out of habit.
It looked as if it was waiting for him to show off his skills and take down the heavy armored door with one punch.
King Ada was the first to get anxious: "Wait! Wait a minute! And Leon, calm down first! Opening the cable car violently may cause a malfunction!"
"I think we can interrogate this woman first." She pointed at Yani, "She must have an authority bracelet on her!"
Along the way, I was shocked and my worldview was challenged time and time again.
Now the cold temperament on King Ada's face has collapsed.
Before today, she could never imagine herself communicating with others in a tentative tone.
