Chapter 164
If the other party really held the press conference on that completely invisible spacecraft, no matter how hard the CIA technicians tried, they would not be able to find the person.
"..." Mr. President was silent.
"..." Others also remained silent.
"...Continue to try to locate them. If it doesn't work... Sigh - let the guys from the Air Defense Force try harder and see if they can find the spacecraft!" Mr. President could only sigh helplessly in the end.
……')094'\u003eChapter 93 Locking the Target
In fact, the people in the White House guessed correctly. Fang Yuan and the others did hold a press conference on the spaceship.
He is not stupid, how could he easily reveal the location of himself, Alice and others.
If you hold a press conference anywhere, wouldn't you expect to be surrounded and suppressed? The safest place is, of course, his own territory! And it’s still a moving territory! But instead of flying in the sky, they dived into the depths of the ocean.
Nowadays, Fang Yuan still has no idea about the engine upgrade of the spacecraft. If he wants to stay in the air for more than an hour without refueling, this is far beyond the limit of the spacecraft.
Therefore, he directly used the spacecraft as a submarine and quietly dived into the Atlantic Ocean with a group of news media reporters. He also found a place very far off course, leaving only a signal relay buoy on the water. Moreover, when the live broadcast signal is sent out, it has also been heavily disguised and encrypted by [Ether] to ensure that no one will detect their true location.
...The press conference was very successful! The gimmick of human cloning easily attracted the attention of a large number of people, and immediately pushed the Sanlian Group to the forefront of public opinion.
Moreover, major news media that were persuaded by Fang Yuan (physics) spared no effort to publicize all kinds of black materials released by Fang Yuan. Overnight, Sanlian Group turned into a sinister enterprise comparable to the Umbrella Company. It was already in disgrace. The stock price, which had almost reached its peak, finally collapsed completely, and all Sanlian-related stocks became worthless waste paper.
When this wave of public opinion offensive reached its climax, the US government finally responded.
They announced a complete freeze on Sanlian Group's assets, arrested relevant personnel, and would thoroughly investigate the whole story of the human cloning incident to reveal the truth to the public.
And not only the United States, but also various countries in Europe and Asia, as long as there are Sanlian Group branches in their territory, have made similar decisions.
After Umbrella, Sanlian Group became the second international monopoly group to collapse.
But, to be honest, after Fang Yuan and Alice's hard work during this period, there is nothing left of this company, and it is even far inferior to the original umbrella company - at least when the latter went bankrupt, there were still a lot of high-quality assets that were sold. Other companies are rushing to acquire it, but what about Sanlian? All that's left is some demolished land! As for arresting the people involved... Fang Yuan believes that it is almost impossible for the US government to find many people involved. Basically all the middle and high-level people in the Sanlian Group have been killed by him and Alice, and the remaining It is impossible for the minions to be responsible for this kind of thing, and those behind the scenes who have put on countless layers of white gloves cannot be caught so easily. This matter will most likely have to be left alone.
Maybe a few scapegoats will be introduced? Fang Yuan was waiting to watch their performance.
... "It seems that the masterminds behind the scenes have not exposed their tails..." Half a month later, Fang Yuan and others did not see any of the masterminds with enough weight being brought to justice. They knew that this case They can only take care of things themselves.
"So, which one should we look for first?" Alice asked.
Because of the existence of [ether], it is not too difficult for Fang Yuan and the others to determine the identities of those behind the scenes.
In addition, he has already obtained Simmons' memory. Although even Simmons himself is not very clear about the true identity of the masterminds behind the scenes, there are some relatively reliable guesses. Fang Yuan based on these guesses, and then let [Aether] closely monitors all communications from these suspects and can easily determine authenticity.
"Find her first!" Fang Yuan snapped his fingers, and a photo was displayed on the big screen in front of him.
The photo shows a white woman who appears to be in her 40s.
Judging from her posture and expression, she has both the pride derived from European aristocrats and a graceful demeanor. She is a very charming middle-aged lady.
"Who is she?" Alice always felt that this middle-aged woman looked familiar. Had she seen it somewhere... "Her name is Elizabeth Travis, and she is the grandmother of Excella Gioni. , who is also the head of the Sanlian Group of the previous generation, claimed to have died two years ago, but in fact he is still very healthy due to virus enhancement, and even has the tendency to get younger as he lives. "
As he spoke, Fang Yuan called up more photos of her, ranging from 50 years old, 60 years old, 70 years old... all the way to the latest 76 years old. It can be clearly seen that between the ages of 50 and 70, she is still beautiful. Normal aging, but after the age of 73, she became much younger every year, and in the end she even looked younger than when she was 50 years old.
Alice: "She was also injected with the T virus?" "No, what these old men and women used was obviously not the ordinary T virus. It should be their own modified mutant virus, just like the one I encountered when I rescued the clones. Just like that old man."
Fang Yuan briefly told Alice about the old man he met when he rescued the clone, and the enhancement in him that obviously came from Alice's genes.
"It seems that it is my genes that allow these old people to have a second youth?" Alice was a little stunned. When did she become a Tang Monk-like existence? "It's not just your genes. Sanlian Group has been studying the Ancestral Virus for quite some time. Although it may not be as good as the Umbrella Company, they should also have some research results of their own. It's just that your genes are very important." ”
This is Fang Yuan's guess. Whether it is true or not will be known until they catch these people involved.
"...A 'dead person' in the legal and social sense... She should not be on our monitoring list. How did you find her?" Alice was a little curious.
After all, [Ether]'s global monitoring is not omnipotent. If Fang Yuan wants to find out these masterminds, in addition to keyword searches in communications, another important clue is the suspects in Simmons' memory.
But even Simmons would not place suspicion on a dead man.
"She died too early!" Fang Yuan snapped his fingers and said this answer: "I checked the relationship between the Travis family members and found that the old man who cloned you is actually Elizabeth's father.
Think about it, even an old man in his 90s and nearly a hundred years old has not died yet, and she, an old lady in her 70s, died first, and the time of death was so coincidental..." "...after the Raccoon City incident was exposed... …" Only then did Alice notice that Elizabeth's official death date happened to be just after the Umbrella Company scandal broke out. Coupled with the premature death, this was indeed very suspicious.
“Then I asked [Ether] to cross-reference her photo with faces captured by all public cameras in Europe and the United States within a year, and finally found her! - This rejuvenated lady obviously loves to dress up and capture photos She was caught on camera near a high-end clothing store in Paris while she was shopping."
Alice suddenly realized that this was really her own fault. At this time, she still wanted to go shopping. It was strange not to reveal her identity! ')095'\u003eChapter 94 Unexpected Changes
late at night.
An old mansion on the outskirts of Paris.
Two figures, a man and a woman, gradually approached in the darkness.
"Is this right here?" the female figure asked the companion beside her. "Yes, this is it."
he replied.
"Are there no traps and ambush?" "No, this old woman is alone - it seems that she really thought that her fake death arrangement was perfect!" "Great! Then, let's go, sisters!" Follow her With an order, more figures walked out of the darkness behind them, and then everyone rushed into the mansion from all directions.
However, in the next second——Boom——! ! ! A huge shock wave erupted from the inside of the mansion, and all the dozens of people who had just rushed in were blown away, and countless bricks, stones and wood fell to the ground.
It seemed that the sudden explosion ignited the gas pipes in the building. The raging flames rose from the ruins of the mansion, illuminating the surroundings of the mansion, allowing everyone in the darkness to reveal their true colors. .
——Yes, it was Fang Yuan and Alice's group.
"Alice, are you okay?" Fang Yuan, who was not blown away because he was a step too late, stepped forward to help Alice up.
"We are fine, we were just thrown away by the sudden shock wave. No one was injured!" Holding Fang Yuan's hand and standing up, Alice sensed the sisters around her and found that everyone was safe.
In fact, it is not that easy for them to get injured when they use telekinetic shields all the time when performing tasks.
However, she still warned: "Be careful, the other party seems to be using telekinesis!" Just as the Alices got up from the ground in disgrace, a young female voice came from the burning mansion: "I'm still here Where did you think these little mice came from? Are they actually you experimental subjects?" Everyone looked up and saw a woman who was too beautiful to look like a human being walking out of the flames.
Her skin is as white as snow, as smooth as the finest ceramics, and her face is as delicate as the most perfect doll. She is dressed in a blaze of flames. Countless tongues of high-temperature flames surround her, but they do not cause any harm to her. Instead, she acts as if she is obedient. The pets usually play around her gently.
The woman in front of her suddenly had a beauty and charm that transcended the level of mortals.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone present, whether Fang Yuan or Alice, had much stronger mental powers than ordinary people, they might even have been captured by her charm the first time they saw this woman.
Counting it into COC, her APP must be at least 19, which is equivalent to having a weak human charm spell fixed on her body! "...You told me that this is Elizabeth Travis?" Alice looked at the incomparably beautiful young woman in front of her, and then recalled the middle-aged woman in the photo she saw before, with a look of disbelief on her face. .
"...How do I know! That photo was taken three days ago!" Fang Yuan also looked confused. Is this woman the old woman from before? "Ha! It seems that you know my true identity!" The woman who looked like a goddess of fire saw Fang Yuan's reaction, chuckled and said, "Why, are you surprised by my appearance?" It's really surprising!" Fang Yuan took a step forward, shrugged and said, "When I found out your whereabouts, you were at least 30 years older than you are now!" "Thank you for that! The little cutie next to me!" The woman raised a slender hand wrapped in a flame glove, and the burning flames around her swam and played between her fingers like a small snake, while pacing in the ruins of flames: "It is her genes that will The final piece of the Venus Project puzzle came together.
Just today, my transformation has finally been completed, and now I have finally become perfect! "The transformation has just been completed today! This is such luck... Fang Yuan almost thought that the whole world was specifically targeting him! "Venus Plan? "Alice noticed the name.
"Yes, look!" The woman opened her hands and showed her beauty that is far beyond ordinary people to everyone: "This beauty is the genetic enhancement that I tailor-made for myself. It is definitely worthy of a beauty god. At this point, her tone suddenly turned cold and her beautiful face was twisted with anger and hatred.
She looked at Fang Yuan and Alice below with cold and resentful eyes: "... I just pity my little Excella. I originally wanted to take her to become a god... She is still so young, and she can't do anything. I didn’t enjoy it, and I was actually killed by you!” It seems that she blamed Fang Yuan and Alice for the death of Axela.
She saw her hands suddenly waved forward, and the raging fire burning around her turned into countless flaming arrows, and she charged towards the enemy in front of her like a loyal knight.
"Be careful!" When Alice saw the flames coming straight towards her, she immediately stretched out her hand to stop it with telekinesis, but Fang Yuan suddenly raised his hand to stop her movement.
"It doesn't matter, I just want to try out the new power I just gained!" Before he finished speaking, the jet of flames had already arrived in front of Fang Yuan.
However, facing the oncoming attack, Fang Yuan did not make any move to dodge or block. He saw that the flames seemed to have hit an invisible wall, and could only spread in all directions in vain, but could no longer reach him. Push forward even an inch.
"Is this... telekinesis?" Alice looked shocked. She had not taken action just now. This telepathy was obviously not sent by any of them, so there was only one possibility - it was Fang Yuan's own power.
"...Is this the new power you are talking about? Did you inject yourself with the T virus?" Alice obviously thought that Fang Yuan was like those careerists who coveted her genes and used her genes to conduct some human experiments.
"No! Where did you go?" Fang Yuan shook his head: "This is just a high-end application of bionics. I won't just inject some messy things into my body!" Although Fang Yuan's words made Alice feel sad. She felt uncomfortable for a while, this statement seemed like her body was full of messy things, but when she heard Fang Yuan's statement, she also breathed a sigh of relief - at least her friends were not those careerists after all... "Oh? I didn't expect you too. You have this power, but I don’t feel the presence of the virus from you... Do you actually have a way to obtain this divine power through other channels?" Elizabeth, who transformed into the goddess of fire, was surprised when she saw Fang Yuan's performance.
As she said, she did not feel that there was any variant of the Ancestral Virus series in Fang Yuan's body, which meant that he obtained telekinesis by another method entirely.
"But, that's all, there's no way to stop me!" Elizabeth moved her hand, and more and more violent flames poured out from the ruins, turning into a flame tornado dozens of meters thick, pressing towards Fang Yuan and others. And down.
Fire Queen
"It's useless!" Fang Yuan shouted sharply, and more violent telekinesis surged out from the void, turning into a real force that shattered the flame tornado. Countless sparks flew everywhere, igniting the surrounding area. large lawn shrubs.
But in the next moment, icy cold air surged out from the ground, instantly extinguishing the fire that had not yet spread.
"Oh? Do you have other abilities? I am becoming more and more interested in you!" A sneer appeared on the corner of Elizabeth's mouth, and then she didn't see any movement. More violent flames suddenly exploded in the ruins that were gradually surrounded by low-temperature cold air. .
And not only that, she herself was also thrown into the flames at the same time, and the skin all over her body glowed with blazing light under the licks of the flames. Her whole body was almost assimilated with the firelight, and she looked like the incarnation of flames! Fang Yuan tried to use the electromagnetic cannon to attack, but found that the shells with several times the speed of sound only punched a few holes through Elizabeth's body, which was transformed into flames, and then were filled and repaired by more flames in the next moment, as if her body had been completely Made of flames.
Fang Yuan frowned a little.
The opponent in front of him has already demonstrated a variety of superpowers in just a few rounds of fighting - the one that knocked Alice and the others away from the mansion was telekinesis, and then when she appeared, she showed the ability to control flames. Ability, it seems that an element-like ability will be added now... This should be a mixture of the T-virus in Alice's body and the T-Veronica virus invented by Alexia. It actually strengthens both viruses at the same time... And this elemental-like effect is a bit too fantasy! However, Fang Yuan knows that this is not a real magical world. No matter how magical the opponents appear, their abilities still have to abide by some basic physical laws - for example, flame burning requires fuel and oxides! "Alice, please retreat further!" Fang Yuan said to the Alices behind him. Regardless of whether they heard it or not, his eyes shone brightly and he directly took action to remove the oxygen from the entire mansion and even the surrounding area. All refined into inert gas.
Sure enough, Elizabeth, who had turned into a genuine "Queen of Fire", suddenly suffocated the flames on her body, and then quickly fell down, leaving only a thin layer of pale golden fire on her body.
"Is this... expelling oxygen?" Elizabeth spoke with some difficulty. The loss of oxygen did have a great impact on her, but it was not to the extent that she would immediately suffocate.
The highly evolved and mutated virus has transformed her body into some kind of inhuman existence. She can still survive even in an oxygen-free environment. Even as time goes by, her feeling of suffocation gradually disappears. Finally, Completely returned to normal.
At the same time, the somewhat low flames in her body also surged again - as the virus automatically optimized and mutated, the combustion accelerant secreted by the body itself replaced the oxygen in the air, allowing her flames to remain strong even in a vacuum. Can burn.
Fang Yuan watched this scene of changes from beginning to end, and he was speechless - what on earth had this old woman turned into? But this alone cannot scare Fang Yuan.
Since the method of isolating the air is useless, then use ultra-low temperature to fight! Fang Yuan's telekinesis turned into invisible pen and ink, depicting a three-dimensional frozen formation around the entire mansion, completely surrounding Elizabeth's location. In the next moment, ultra-low temperatures that could liquefy nitrogen descended on the entire space. .
At the same time, Elizabeth, who had just completed a new round of evolution under the pressure of an oxygen-free environment, also launched her offensive - a viscous body fluid similar to napalm was secreted from her body surface and turned into a substance with substance. The flame tornado hit the ultra-low temperature cold wave sent by Fang Yuan.
The confrontation between extreme cold and extreme heat was at a stalemate for a while. One moment, the ultra-low temperature cold wave took over and extinguished large swaths of flames. Another moment, Elizabeth's flame physique evolved again, and stronger and higher-temperature scorching flames burst out from the body surface, almost The bone-chilling cold that was approaching forced me to retreat.
In order not to affect Fang Yuan's offensive, the Alices who retreated to the rear could only help control the aftermath of the battlefield and minimize the impact on the surrounding environment.
In the battlefield, this kind of confrontation between cold and heat broke out dozens or hundreds of times in a short period of time. The rapid heating and cooling repeated in a short period of time, and the effect of thermal expansion and contraction caused the entire ruins of the mansion to gradually... It became brittle and shattered, and after a few minutes, it finally couldn't hold up and collapsed.
The sudden collapse of the building interrupted the hot and cold confrontation between Elizabeth and Fang Yuan.
To be precise, a large amount of combustible dust poured onto Elizabeth, who had transformed into a flaming humanoid, causing her flames to surge in an instant, forcing back the ultra-low temperature cold wave that had gradually gained the upper hand.
"Tch!" Fang Yuan spat secretly, what a bad luck! This guy has the protagonist aura, right? How come all the good luck is on the other side? ! But complaints are complaints, and the battle must continue to be fought.
Fang Yuan turned his hand and retrieved the weapon design he had just obtained from the [Ether] database. Countless particles in his hand aggregated and reorganized, turning into a weapon that looked particularly sci-fi.
This was stolen from the B.S.A.A. confidential database. It is a unique weapon for this world to deal with B.O.W. - linear particle cannon! This is an energy weapon developed by Alexia's father, Alexander, specifically against the ancestor virus. It is a trophy that Chris brought back to B.S.A.A. - Alexia in this world was still killed by the Redfield brothers and sisters.
Fang Yuan had never thought that this world already had such black technology. It was not until [Ether] who was wandering on the Internet one day put this set of drawings in front of him that he suddenly realized that this world actually had something to deal with. The killer weapon of biological and chemical weapons.
This weapon, which uses a specific high-energy particle beam to directly bombard the virus in B.O.W.'s body, can fundamentally restrain those various biochemical weapons. As long as their basis is still the ancestral virus, they will definitely not be immune to this targeted restraint! Elizabeth obviously also recognized this weapon. When she saw the linear particle cannon in Fang Yuan's hand, her face suddenly changed-although this face, which was almost made of flames, could not see any other color.
She immediately wanted to stop Fang Yuan from completing the construction of the particle cannon. The flames around her turned into two fire dragons, attacking Fang Yuan from the left and right directions, but were blocked by an invisible force field-Fang Yuan has been using telekinesis all the time, and will not give the other party a chance! When the linear particle cannon was finally constructed, Fang Yuan quickly aimed the gun and immediately pulled the trigger, not giving the other party a chance to dodge.
The next moment, the particle cannon that had been fully charged let out a low roar, and a blazing white light flashed in the air.
')097'\u003eChapter 96 Killing \u0026 Acquiring Telekinesis
When the light flashed, Elizabeth put down her hands that were blocking her eyes. Although she no longer needed to breathe, she still felt relieved.
Fortunately, telekinesis can indeed block this high-energy particle beam... Before she could finish this thought, a high-energy particle beam that was ten times stronger than the previous one suddenly burst out from behind her, hitting the defenseless Elizabeth.
"Ah————————!!!!!!" The intense pain from every cell in her body instantly engulfed Elizabeth's consciousness. She let out a piercing scream that was not like a human, while she fell to the ground and struggled and rolled.
The high-energy particle beam specifically targeted the basic gene fragments of the Progenitor virus, bombarding every DNA in every cell in her body, destroying all the gene fragments from the Progenitor virus. The pain she brought to her was so deep that she couldn't even hold it for a second, and immediately fell to the ground and wailed.
Fang Yuan looked at Elizabeth, who was rolling on the ground in pain and had no goddess demeanor at all. He put down the useless particle cannon in his hand, without any shame on his face for attacking from behind.
——It was the other party who did not notice the formation behind her. She was foolish to be hit.
Yes, the linear particle shock wave that just knocked Elizabeth down was sent by Fang Yuan using the formation.
In fact, if he wanted to launch such an attack, he didn't need to make any physical guns. He could launch it with his bare hands.
After all, the linear particle energy beam was not a telekinetic field, and it was still within Fang Yuan's observation and understanding range. Besides, Fang Yuan had found a way to use telekinesis, so it was not a problem for him to use the formation to release the linear particle energy beam out of thin air.
The reason why he still wanted to refine the linear particle cannon in his hand was to confuse the other party, so that she would focus all her attention on the particle cannon in front of her and ignore the defense behind her.
After all, after getting the design of the linear particle cannon, Fang Yuan also tested it. With preparation, telekinesis can perfectly defend against this kind of energy attack, and this time the enemy happens to be a telekinetic one.
The only good news is that this old woman who compares herself to the goddess of beauty seems to have gone astray in the use of telekinesis, and all of it is focused on the auxiliary control of the flame, and cannot unconsciously maintain the whole body defense like Alice and the others, so Fang Yuan can find the opponent's flaw by making a feint to the east and attacking in the west.
Otherwise, this little trick may not be able to take her down.
Slowly walking towards Elizabeth, who has gradually lost her voice, her body is no longer burning, and her original goddess-like peerless beauty has been completely destroyed by the hideous scorch marks etched on her skin.
Her current appearance is more like the ugly god of fire Hephaestus than the goddess of beauty Venus - just right for her fire ability.
Fang Yuan pressed down the woman who was still struggling on the ground with one foot, leaned down, and put one hand on her head. [Ether] very consciously activated the memory scanning function and copied all of Elizabeth's memories.
"How is it?" Seeing that the battle was over, Alice approached from a distance - judging from the size of her chest, it should be the real body.
Fang Yuan saw the progress bar on the virtual screen in front of him quickly pulled to 100%, knowing that [Ether] had completed the work.
"Done!" As he said, he switched to the refining mode and transformed Elizabeth Travis, who had lost consciousness, into the Philosopher's Stone, allowing her to accompany her father.
"I didn't expect that I didn't help at all in this battle..." Alice was a little embarrassed. This kind of charge and battle should have been their job... "Nothing, this was originally my own request, and it was just right to test the effect of the new ability in actual combat."
Fang Yuan waved his hand indifferently, indicating that Alice didn't need to care about these.
