After regaining his composure, Leon quickly tightened his grip on the steering wheel and lightly stepped on the brake with his right foot to avoid skidding in rainy weather due to sudden braking.
However, when the speed of the car slows down completely...
A faint sound of "Boom..." was heard, and the Jeep Cross Country driven by Lyon suddenly stalled as the speed of the vehicle approached below five kilometers per hour??
Could it be that his physical condition affected the vehicle?
Leon couldn't help but ask himself.
But when he completely recovered from the unclear coma and then to the unclear awakening, Leon discovered that the Jeep off-road he was driving had a manual transmission. No wonder it would stall if he only applied the brakes, because
His left foot didn't press the clutch.
But at this moment, Leon's focus is not on the manual transmission, clutch and flameout, but that he is in a dream now? Or is it a fantasy, or other dimensions?
Originally, he was standing in the simple room, witnessing the sudden appearance of the bloody red light, and arguing with Rum who wanted to persuade him to leave. Unexpectedly, he "traveled" here in just a moment that could not blink.
Immediately afterwards, Leon looked at himself through the rearview mirror, and this look made him even more disbelieving.
The content of the picture reflected in the rearview mirror is still Lyon, with blond hair, handsome appearance, and extremely young. However, Lyon is wearing a dark blue or dark blue special combat uniform, and there is a
Stamped with "R.P.D. (Raccoon City Police Department)".
Raccoon City Police Department?
After graduating from college, he bought his first Jeep off-road vehicle, and before joining the police station, his college girlfriend broke up with him, leaving him with a lingering hangover on rainy days, and other details...
Leon couldn't help but guess that he might be in Raccoon City in "1998".
But after the breakup, he drank a little too much, slept all day, and never arrived at the Raccoon City Police Station to take up his post as scheduled.
After that, he met Sui Bian and started his career as an intelligence agent for more than two hundred years.
In his impression, by the time he was about to drive to Raccoon City, the weather had already cleared up, and he had no experience of driving to Raccoon City in the rain.
Of course, this simple point in time and everything else could be an illusion created by the abnormal phenomena or creatures that spoke unknown words to him, based on the memories in his mind.
The most important thing is that after a period of analysis, Leon was sure that his physical body was still in Srilan's camp, and what he saw before him was all a dream.
That abnormal creature most likely wanted to destroy his will through dreams, and then achieve some kind of assimilation and corruption measures.
Want to corrupt him?
Leon will not give 100% denial, because such words will only be slapped in the face in the end, but Leon has enough confidence and enough experience to have a good fight with the abnormal bastards who dare to tease him, and at the same time, he is looking for
Find out how to escape from dreams.
Stabilize your mind and clarify your thoughts.
After setting the target, Leon stretched out his right hand to touch the outside of his thigh, and pulled out his long-lost "old buddy" from the holster, a VP70 (Matilda) pistol produced by HK Company, 9mm, with a magazine capacity of 18 rounds.
Can be fired three times in a row.
The VP70 had been with him for many years. Even when he became an intelligence agent for Umbrella and obtained a more powerful and reliable pulse pistol, Leon used to use it as a secondary weapon until the 2010s.
Eliminate them completely and collect them.
He checked the condition of the firearm and ammunition and confirmed that it could be used... At least based on his current touch, vision and hearing, after confirming that the VP70 could fire normally, he returned it to the holster on the outside of his thigh.
Then, Leon looked out of the car through the window that was constantly washed by rain. After observing for a moment, he found that he should be on Highway 70 in Colorado, probably just past Denver.
After deducing his location, Leon stepped on the clutch and put it back into neutral, then started the car, but he often held back the fire when changing gears the first few times.
Although it was a dream or illusion, the effect of the simulation was no different from reality, which really made Leon, who had not driven a manual transmission for two hundred years, a little annoyed. Finally, after repeating it several times, he reluctantly continued to drive forward.
During this period, Leon continued to adjust the radio to confirm whether he was the only one in this dream, and whether everyone in the camp was in the same dream.
However, when he flipped the button to a new channel, the nasal voice came out again, as if he was speaking with water: "Young man, surrender to me and serve me. I will give you absolute strength and supreme power."
"
After hearing these words, Leon looked as usual. He did not lose his mind due to the sudden strange whisper, or fall into fear, let alone collapse. Moreover, Leon opened his mouth slightly unhappily and complained to the radio:
"Forget about strength and power, I think my current position and salary are already quite high. They are so high that I don't even want to get any higher. Don't give me any nonsense."
As he spoke, Leon made a fist with his right hand and slammed the radio.
This blow made the abnormal man, who was intermittently unable to speak properly, silence himself.
And the anomaly no longer uses whispers to lure Lyon into the abyss, because this trick will not work for any veteran intelligence officer, and the anomaly seems to have noticed this.
Next, Leon continued to drive forward, and the useless act of adjusting the radio had long since stopped.
It didn't take long.
Lyon found that the rain was gradually stopping, and under the night sky in front of him, the outline of a city was vaguely visible.
At this time, a large sign that read "Welcome to Raccoon City" with a red and white umbrella logo and the words "Umbrella Enterprises" printed below also flashed by on the right side of the highway.
Some time passed.
Leon was getting closer and closer to Raccoon City, but he slowed down the speed of the Jeep off-road, stepped on the clutch, brakes, put it in neutral, and parked it on fire near a gas station outside the city.
There was a woman in a white dress lying in the middle of the road, so Lyon controlled the vehicle to stop not far away, unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and got out of the car, unbuttoned the holster with his right hand, and slowly stepped forward to check.
other people?
Leon does not rule out the possibility that other people have also "traveled" into dreams.
As for the woman's dress, which was not conducive to operations in the desert, Leon didn't have much trouble. After all, he was still wearing an R.P.D. police uniform, and the other party might also encounter a similar situation.
He approached slowly, keeping vigilance, and asked, "Madam, are you okay?"
"Uh" Hearing Leon's question, the other party let out a long low groan and struggled to stand up.
Sensing something strange about the woman, Lyon immediately stopped, pulled out the pistol directly from the holster, and pointed the gun at the head of the woman who had stood up straight.
When the woman turned around and showed "her" appearance, Leon saw that the other woman's skin was pale, as if it had been blistered, and the right half of her face was directly torn, and her dull eyes were exposed.
Outside, it's extremely disgusting and scary.
The most important thing is that this woman, who was obviously dead, straightened her arms and approached Lyon staggeringly.
If an ordinary person in the early 21st century were to stay here alone, their sanity might decline crazily due to the uncanny valley effect, and some people with poor mental endurance might even collapse directly.
But "Peng~!
"With a gunshot and a "plop", the woman who should have been dead fell to the ground again and completely lost her movement.
If you look carefully, you can see that there is a dark bloody hole as thick as an index finger in the woman's eyebrow area.
It turned out that the moment Lyon saw the woman's appearance, he had already pulled the trigger, causing the 9mm bullet to escape, piercing the rotten and broken skin and skull.
After the brain tissue was smashed to pieces, the woman finally died in the true sense.
Leon had long been accustomed to the scene in front of him, and he also clearly understood that the woman was a corpse infected by unknown microorganisms and only acted according to instinct.
Just a zombie.
However, it is not ruled out that the living dead are controlled by the psychic energy, magic or witchcraft released by the anomaly, but no matter what, years of experience tell Leon that a headshot is the best option.
"Peng!"
Add two more shots to confirm the status.
Seeing that the zombie stopped moving at all, Leon immediately turned his attention and sight around him, and found that more and more zombies with ragged clothes and ulcerated skin were pouring onto the street, trying to surround him and eat him.
Seeing this, Leon remained unhurried, easily headshotting the zombies closest to him and the Jeep Cross-country, and quickly returned to the driving seat.
He stepped on the clutch and put it into gear, starting away from this suburban gas station and away from the group of zombies that gradually closed in and stretched out their arms towards him and the Jeep Cross Country, all the while moaning with empty stomachs.
inside the car.
Leon braced himself and paid attention to the road conditions ahead and on both sides. The further forward, the more complex the city buildings and streets became, and the number of zombies continued to rise.
At this time, Leon noticed that the originally dark sky was almost instantly shrouded in a layer of red light, as if the sky above Raccoon City was ignited and lit up.
Although he was temporarily unable to determine what the sky phenomenon represented, the bright sky provided him with a good view.
Soon, Leon saw a burning Harley motorcycle parked outside a fast food restaurant on the left side of the street.
This discovery made Leon drive his Jeep off-road to the rear of the Harley. After confirming that the surrounding zombies were far away and did not pose a threat for the time being, he quickly got out of the car and pulled out the VP70 from the holster.
Approach the fast food restaurant.
Through the glass window, Lyon spotted a woman with a high ponytail, black leather shorts, a leather top, and a red sleeveless vest. She was backing away at a loss. In front of this woman was a man.
A zombie with fresh blood flowing from the corner of its mouth.
Looking at such a scene, Leon was not sure whether the woman was the same as him. Her physical body was lying in the camp on the black mountain peak, but her spiritual consciousness was "imprisoned" in this illusion.
But one thing Leon was sure of was that the zombies had to die, so he pushed open the door and rushed into the fast food restaurant steadily.
This action immediately caught the woman's attention, and she turned to face Leon, and Leon also saw clearly what she looked like...
At first glance, she looks like a female college student who has not experienced much social "torture", and there is a hint of panic in her clear eyes.
But Leon always felt that the woman in front of him looked familiar, and he couldn't place it for a while.
"Don't shoot!" The woman quickly raised her hands to indicate that she was not a threat.
"Squat down!" Leon yelled immediately.
Hearing this, the woman squatted down without any hesitation, giving Leon an excellent shooting angle.
"Peng~!" a gunshot sounded.
"Plop." The zombie whose head was shot also fell to the ground.
After solving this threat and entering combat mode, Leon's instinct told him to look behind him with his peripheral vision, and he saw that the streets that were empty just now were now filled with hundreds of zombies.
"Take the back door!"
Leon reminded the woman who had already stood up, and rushed towards the kitchen.
The woman had no time to respond, let alone think about anything, so she followed Lyon's route and escaped from the fast food restaurant through the kitchen full of lake smell.
Get out.
The first thing that caught "her" eyes was a dark alley. As for Leon, he solved a few zombies blocking the entrance of the alley, replaced it with a new magazine, and put the remaining few bullets in the old magazine into his pocket.
.
Next, the woman continued to follow Lyon out of the alley, ran to a police car that was also on fire, sat directly in the passenger seat, closed the door, and fastened her seat belt.
Lyon, who sat in the driver's seat a few seconds ahead of the woman, did not forget to glance at the back seat when closing the door.
Sure enough, with this simple inspection, he discovered a zombie police officer wearing a white shirt lying in the back seat.
Then, without saying a word, Leon raised his gun and shot the zombie policeman in the head. Then he put the VP70 back into the holster, held the steering wheel, and drove the automatic police car toward the center of Raccoon City.
When the police car entered the main road, and saw that the zombies no longer seemed to pose a threat, the woman tried to ask with a trembling tone: "You... are a policeman, right?"
But when Leon heard this question, he frowned and responded against his will: "Yes, if you think about it, I should have only been a policeman for one day."
"Huh..." the woman sighed, not noticing that Lyon was slowing down the car, and sighed: "I really don't know what's wrong with this city. I'm Claire, Claire Redfield. I don't know your name?"
"
After learning the woman's full name, Leon realized why she looked familiar. It turned out that the woman was Chris' sister!
Immediately afterwards, Lyon immediately parked the police car to the side of the road, then unbuckled his seat belt under the different eyes of "Claire", took out the VP70 from the holster again, kept a safe distance and aimed it at his head, and asked in a deep voice.
:
"Tell me how to end this dream."
"What?! What the fuck are you doing?!"
"Claire" suddenly lost control of his emotions and cursed uncontrollably, obviously not understanding what Leon was talking about.
but…
"Peng!", gunshots suddenly rang out inside the police car.
