Chapter 7 Taking Over the Base

After the battle, Fang Heng's side quickly completed preparations and was ready to depart at any time.

Four days have passed since I arrived here, and I need to hurry up and get moving.

Soon, Alice and Carlos arrived, ready to set off with Fang Heng.

After saying goodbye to Claire and the others, Alice piloted the helicopter towards the Umbrella Corporation's base.

Watching Fang Heng and the others leave, Claire also turned and left the rooftop. Although the zombies here had been mostly eliminated, there was still a lot to do. There were plenty of supplies in the casino, and she would be busy from now on.

Meanwhile, on the helicopter, Fang Heng was constantly operating the computer.

Although the previous electromagnetic suppression prevented the White Queen from knowing the situation on the ground.

However, now that they are outside the electromagnetic suppression zone, even with the backup plan left by Fang Heng, the White Queen will conclude that the mission has failed once she can no longer contact the personnel on site.

Because of his intervention, Isaac was not made the final boss, which means that Matthew, the security chief who should have been killed (I couldn't find his exact name, so I'm using the actor's name instead), has now taken over this North American branch base.

When Alice entered the base, she didn't encounter any defense forces because all the staff had been killed by Isaac.

However, with Matthew's presence, it will still be somewhat difficult for him to completely take control of the North American base.

However, compared to Isaac, who became the boss, Fang Heng felt that humans were easier to deal with, at least bullets could solve the problem.

The helicopter was very fast. After arriving at the scene, Alice was busy operating the helicopter and did not notice the mass grave, but Carlos did.

After the helicopter landed, Alice also noticed the clones that had been killed.

At this moment, Alice truly understood that her previous dreams were not dreams, but rather the experiences these clones had passed on to her when they died.

Alice was now beyond furious. Although she had dealt with Isaac, in her view, none of the high-ranking members of Umbrella were innocent.

"Fang Heng, can we charge in now?"

"Alice, calm down. The enemy must already know we're here, so we need to be prepared."

At this moment, Fang Heng looked at the information transmitted by the mask and knew that the three of them had been exposed. The people below were ready and just waiting for them to come down.

After the three entered the cabin, they did not rush down.

After scanning, Fang Heng quickly found the network interface.

"Alice, I'll implant a data bomb into the intranet here now. When we come down, we'll detonate it directly, which will force the base's main system into a reboot phase. We only have three minutes. Within those three minutes, we need to eliminate the guards as much as possible."

As Fang Heng spoke, he manipulated the computer on the wrist of his exoskeleton armor, using a pre-prepared program to hack into the base's internal network.

As the data transmission was completed, Fang Heng nodded to Alice.

After the mechanism was activated, a passageway opened in the middle of the cabin, revealing the elevator shaft.

As the elevator started, we quickly arrived at the top of the cabin.

After exchanging glances, the three of them stepped onto the platform.

At this moment, defensive positions had been deployed at the location of the elevator below the base, and the guards inside the base were already on high alert.

As the elevator began to descend, everyone tensed up.

"Ding!"

As the elevator arrived, the moment the elevator doors opened, all the guards opened fire simultaneously.

"Da da da!"

Countless bullets pierced the elevator; if there were any intruders, they would probably be riddled with bullets.

But at this moment, the elevator was empty.

"Ceasefire!"

At Matthew's command, all the guards ceased their attack.

"Where is the White Queen?"

"Manager Matthew, the system shows the person is on the elevator."

"Damn it!"

At this moment, Matthew also realized that these intruders had fooled the system and were preparing to issue new orders. Fang Heng also activated the data bomb.

[Warning: System compromised, firewall compromised!]

[Warning: The system has been compromised. The central system has entered emergency reboot mode. 3 minutes remaining!]

Matthew was somewhat surprised when the two warning sounds rang out.

Before he could react, something flew over from the elevator.

"Bang!"

With a flash of white light, everyone present felt their vision go white, followed by tinnitus and dizziness, and they were unable to maintain their formation.

"Da da da!"

Just then, Alice and Carlos appeared on the elevator and opened fire indiscriminately on the guards.

"Ah!"

As screams rang out, the guards here were quickly cleared out.

When Matthew saw something coming, he sensed something was wrong and reacted quickly enough to avoid being affected by the stun grenade.

However, the combined firepower of Alice and Carlos prevented him from retaliating.

Fang Heng's actions were also very swift. Wearing an exoskeleton armor, he sprinted at an extremely fast speed, directly overtaking everyone and entering the passage.

And as he passed by Matthew, he casually shot him, killing him instantly.

With everyone on the scene eliminated, Alice and Carlos quickly took cover and reloaded their bullets.

"Activate optical cloaking!"

Fang Heng didn't pay attention to Alice and the other person at the moment. On the way down, he only had one request: to temporarily retain the research staff in the base, as some follow-up work would still need to be done by the research staff.

Because he had downloaded the base's blueprints in advance, Fang Heng arrived at the central control room quickly.

There are 30 seconds left before the system restarts.

Seeing the wide-open control room door, Fang Heng didn't hesitate and immediately rushed inside.

【系统重启倒计时10秒，9、8、7...3、2、1，重启完成！】

With the central system restarted, the White Queen also came back online. After performing a self-check, she immediately saw Fang Heng busy standing next to her motherboard.

"Intruder, this is a critical area of ​​Umbrella Corporation. Please leave immediately."

"Alright, stop howling."

Annoyed, Fang Heng simply yelled.

At this moment, under Fang Heng's operation, all the devices have been connected and the cracking software is running rapidly.

[System intrusion detected, defending, defending...]

As the White Queen's projection disappeared, Fang Heng breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the notification on the screen.

[System overwrite complete, downloading database!]

This was Fang Heng's first time traveling through time, and he didn't know which time and space he would travel to, so he made a lot of preparations.

Fearing that they might enter some modern worlds, Fang Heng also had Ethan prepare a system intrusion software and a rewriting device, which could infiltrate and take over other people's systems, and now it came in handy.

After the system overwrite was completed, Fang Heng immediately located Alice and the others.

Alice and Carlos were also locked in a fierce battle at this point, and after Matthew's death, all the guards immediately went berserk.

As guards of the Umbrella Corporation, apart from the management who are natural persons, many of the remaining guards are clones who have long been implanted with the ideology of loyalty to Umbrella, so they will not show any mercy to Alice and Carlos, the two intruders.

Although Carlos was a veteran of countless battles, he was still just an ordinary person, so he was exhausted in the face of the relentless attacks.

Alice fared slightly better, but she still needed to constantly dodge attacks and also needed to rescue Carlos.

Fang Heng saw this situation in the computer room and immediately took action.

As the final command was entered, all the Umbrella Guards on site were instantly killed.

These guards are equipped with biological agents implanted by the Umbrella Corporation, which can kill the host in a very short time, serving as a form of insurance.

However, this is now the most efficient way for Fang Heng to deal with these guards.

At the scene of the battle, as the gunfire ceased, Alice and Carlos cautiously peeked out and saw all the guards lying on the ground. They also heard Fang Heng's voice in their ears.

"Alice, the guards have been dealt with. You two need to finish each guard off with a shot to the head to prevent them from turning into zombies."

"Okay, I understand."

Hearing Fang Heng's words, Alice and the other two breathed a sigh of relief and began to finish off the attackers.

Fang Heng did this just in case, since he didn't know if these guards had the T-virus in their bodies. If they did, turning into zombies would be a real problem.

Soon, Alice and her companion arrived at the server room and met up with Fang Heng.

"Fang Heng, what's the next step?"

"Alice, don't rush. The researchers at the base are still very useful. We should keep these people as guards. We can use the base's cloning equipment to create a batch of them. The gene templates can be from other personnel at the base or Carlos's own."

I just checked the information too. It's possible to use a gene editor to optimize and modify Carlos's genes, ensuring that the clone warriors he produces don't look exactly like Carlos.

At this point, Fang Heng couldn't help but admire the impressive gene programming technology of Umbrella Corporation. He paused for a moment before continuing.

"Umbrella Corporation's gene editing technology is very advanced. I can now confirm that this apocalyptic disaster was deliberately orchestrated by Umbrella. The top executives of Umbrella Corporation must be hiding somewhere in hibernation. Therefore, we still have a long way to go."

Upon hearing Fang Heng's words, Alice understood.

"Fang Heng, are you saying that Umbrella Corporation deliberately orchestrated this apocalypse?"

"While it's not 100% certain, there's roughly an 80% chance."

"Don't eat pickled radishes!"

Carlos cursed when he heard this, but he knew he couldn't change anything.
