Chapter 577: Earth: Confrontation

-----

Ivan Wesker looked into the security cameras as explosions occurred everywhere, Chris and that new woman named Lucia were putting a great fight against his spawns, and were easily pulling through.

Something that could had easily gotten rid of them by now was being defeated thanks to Lucia, and even when Chris was on the verge of death, he somehow survived and came back even stronger by injecting himself with something else.

"All these useless scientists couldn't do a single thing decently! And then they call themselves experts or something?! This is truly beyond me; how pathetic can they be?!" asked Ivan in anger.

Deep down, Ivan had already begun to consider escaping, as long as he could remain alive, he could always fight another war… however, that would imply leaving Miranda to die here.

He wasn't able to properly transport her unless he were to do a large procedure, separating her tank into a mobile one would surely take hours, he couldn't do such a thing now.

And leaving her to die here… wasn't something he would want to.

After letting the first one die miserably, he really didn't wanted to see her perish once more… he even blamed himself for what happened to the original Miranda and thought that he had successfully revived her through this clone.

But of course, clones are not just revived people, they're separate and different beings of their own. They cannot possibly be said to be the same person, even though it is unknown in here that the concept of souls is a thing.

Chris looked at the stairs being torn apart, as the beast he was fighting was completely decimated by the explosion of his grenade. The creature possessed incredible capabilities of its own, but it was now more than dead, at the very least.

"Hahh… It's done…" he muttered, slowly walking back to his soldiers, the injured were being treated, but there were some heavily wounded.

Lucia looked at Chris as she felt a bit relieved. She herself felt tired, she had already burned an entire monster once more, and her head was once more killing her with a headache, taking another pill might help, but it will also worsen the damage, the pain is the only thing that will go away but the damage will continue to accumulate.

"You're alright?" asked Chris.

"Yes…" muttered Lucia, as she took a pill without hesitation. She didn't had anything else to do in this world than to work in here, she had been chased down her entire life due to her powers, terrified on her own self, now that she could help fight these monsters beyond human comprehension with her powers… it all made it more meaningful for her.

Perhaps she was even willing to give up her life fighting here, if that meant that her powers could bring some sort of change to the world, or at least, to save some people that might ultimately end if things went badly today.

She looked at Chris as she slowly regained her composure, but the exhaustion of her body was imminent, and not only her mind but also her body felt tired, so she was a bit dizzy, her body didn't responded completely to her commands either.

Her legs trembled as Lucia attempted to slowly stand up, then she looked at Chris with a weak smile.

"I am fine, don't worry… I feel like I've never done something worth something in my entire life… I am willing to die if I can protect some people at the end of the day… So I can just make a little difference…" sighed Lucia.

"Lucia…" sighed Chris.

Lucia was a young woman, perhaps around her early twenties, seeing her say such words broke Chris heart, he couldn't bear to see someone with such a big future ahead talking about sacrificing themselves like this, the Organization had really brainwashed her…

"Chris, if I ever die, make sure that someone… remembers me." Said Lucia.

"…I won't let you die, don't worry." Said Chris.

"Chris…" Lucia sighed, as she looked at the man's eyes, they shone brightly, with a new light on his eyes.

Since he took those Nanomachines that Chris felt as if he had somehow "evolved", in a way, his entire body felt "upgraded" his reflexes were stronger, his physical strength had become greater, his precision and speed increased as well, and what else could he develop now?

Somehow, within this newfound power, he felt like he had to use it to protect these younger generations, as a man way past his 40's, he couldn't bear to see a young girl like Lucia say such heartbreaking words, he wanted her radiant smile to keep on living, not to die miserably to these manmade horrors created by the lunatic of Ivan.

Chris quickly decided to continue the expedition, as they had already reached the last floor of the building and confronted the aberrations that emerged, lesser beings compared to these other two monsters they had fought before, which died after being burned to a crisp and blown into pieces by bullets.

As they reached the last and largest laboratory, Ivan Wesker, the mastermind behind everything, was leisurely standing in there, as if he was waiting for them without anything else to do.

This was perhaps the first time Chris ever saw him acting in this bizarre way, Ivan Wesker was always a selfish man that only thought about himself, he took pride in surviving above all other things, and he never thought that he had to stay in one place just to die.

If he could live another day, he didn't found it wrong to just escape and be capable of living for longer, the longer he lived, the more research he could do after all.

But now… things were slightly and strangely different.

Chris noticed the amorphous girl sleeping inside a large tank filled with a transparent liquid, she looked oddly similar to test subject zero, Miranda.

"It can't be… you've really cloned her…? You've not escaped though, that surprises me… So you've finally grown some balls, eh? Ivan?" asked Chris.

Ivan looked at Chris with a cocky smirk.
