A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 1296 The Kill Begins, Turning the Tide into the Initiative! (Please Subscribe!)
Inside the moving train carriage, a cold voice said:

"Excellent, you are the most well-mannered person among those who came this time!"

Then another voice rang out: "Where is this place? Who are you? Why am I here?"

Hua Shier had just woken up from the darkness when he heard the above conversation. He opened his eyes and saw a black-haired young man with a cigarette in his mouth sitting against the carriage wall.

This man was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with an ordinary appearance. Several scars ran across his face, making him look somewhat ferocious and terrifying. His senses were very sharp, and he noticed Hua Twelve the moment he opened his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes:
"Huh, it seems there's more than one person with good physical fitness!"

Hua Shier sat up, his voice slightly weak:
"Excuse me, what's going on?"

As he spoke, he noticed six other people standing next to him—four men and two women. The others were lying unconscious on the ground, except for a handsome young white-collar worker next to him who had already sat up, his face showing surprise and a hint of fear.

In addition, there were a dozen or so foreigners on the other half of the carriage.

Presumably, what he overheard was the conversation between the scarred man across from him and the white-collar worker next to him.

Hua Shier looked around at his surroundings and, considering the appearances of the people around him, a thought suddenly struck him:
"Holy crap, is this going to be another Infinite Terror?"

If that's the case, the scarred man on the other side should be Zhang Jie, and the white-collar youth should be Zheng Zha.

As for those foreigners, Hua Shier glanced at them and indeed saw the female protagonist of the bio-engineered world, Alice, proving that this was the original infinite conjecture, and this should be the first world that Zheng Zha experienced.

As a recent graduate who had only been working for a short time, Hua Shier felt somewhat fearful when she learned that she had entered the world of Infinite Terror.

But then he got excited. What was there to be afraid of? He had seen the original Infinite before and remembered a lot of the plot. Wasn't this like an open-book exam? As long as he followed the plot and avoided the pitfalls, and went straight to the right path, wouldn't it be easy to take off?

Feeling that he had a chance to escape mediocrity, he couldn't help but feel excited.

At this moment, Zheng Zha glanced at Ji Hua Twelve, who had just stood up, and asked Zhang Jie again:
"You haven't answered my question yet: why am I here?"

After he finished speaking, he specifically asked the foreigners in English, but unfortunately no one paid any attention to him.

However, his voice woke up the others one by one.

At this moment, the black-haired youth took a deep drag on his cigarette and then said:

"You must have many questions. Now think about it carefully, and it should have already implanted all of this in your minds."

After saying that, he exclaimed, "This is the first Resident Evil movie! Rookies, you're really lucky!"

Just as Zhang Jie was introducing the newcomers, something in Hua Shier's mind seemed to shatter.

Those were memories that he had sealed away through mental manipulation, and now they were rapidly reviving.

"Damn, I'm not that awesome after all! I got all excited for nothing!"

Back in the real world, when the Ancient One took out the watch, Hua Twelve recognized it as the legendary 'God Watch'.

The Ancient One confirmed Hua Twelve's idea that the Marvel Universe had also encountered an invasion by reincarnators who attempted to change the course of history.

However, no matter how well these reincarnators hide, they will eventually leave clues, because when the Ancient One observes the future, she will discover in advance that the reincarnators are causing timeline disturbances, such as changing people's fates and altering the course of history.

Then the Ancient One would use the Time Stone to trace back to the source, and it would be easy to find the reincarnator.

According to the Ancient One, those people's souls are protected by an unknown force, making it impossible to obtain answers from their souls. Furthermore, those reincarnators never reveal information to outsiders, clearly bound by some kind of rule.

However, when they were alone together, they inevitably left clues, which aroused the interest of the Ancient One. From these clues, she learned about the existence of the God Realm.

When Hua Shier heard Gu Yi mention this, he also became interested:

"So you stepped in, took care of them, and got this watch?"

Gu Yi laughed:

"No, it was TVA, commonly known as the Time Mutation Management Bureau. They also noticed the existence of those people and arrested them immediately. However, when TVA wanted to find out some secrets, those people self-destructed!"

“TVA can’t preserve these watches. Once those people die, the watches will disappear in a very short time. But I can, so I got my hands on several!”

"After several unsuccessful experiments, I found a way to use it!"

Hua Shier asked, puzzled, "Can wearing it allow me to escape the game?"

Gu Yi nodded;

“I can sense from the spacetime information carried by this watch that it is a multiverse different from the Marvel multiverse I live in and the world you live in. Although it is extremely similar, it is ultimately different. So if you can enter that world, it is like stepping out of the game!”

"Moreover, you can seek a solution to your soul's problem through the so-called supreme god over there!"

"It's that simple?"

Hua Shier felt that with his strength, entering the Main God Space was like a max-level character entering a newbie village.

Gu Yi smiled and shook his head:

"Of course it's not that simple. This thing has a selection mechanism. Only ordinary people can use this watch, so your real body cannot enter!"

“But we can go to a parallel world, and have the ordinary you in that parallel world wear this watch. Once that you enters the world where the watch is located, you can use my Kamar-Taj Dreamwalking technique to enter that space!”

After listening, Hua Shier nodded. He had been wondering why Gu Yi didn't use it herself, since she said it could help people escape the game, and why she risked her life to cling to Eternal's coattails. It turned out that only ordinary people could use it.

Upon hearing the Ancient One mention controlling a parallel world of himself and using dream travel to enter the Main God Space, he shook his head and refused without much thought.

"I don't want to interfere with my life in the parallel world. Besides, I need to resolve some issues on my soul's side. I think it's more reliable to go there in person!"

Gu Yi frowned slightly: "But you simply cannot meet the trigger requirements of this watch!"

Hua Shier took out a vial of blood from his storage space:
"I'll just clone a clone; I happen to have the technology!"

This vial of blood was left by him when he was an ordinary person, during his stem cell research in the 'World of Immortality'. The clone created using this vial of blood perfectly meets the requirements of an 'ordinary person'.

Hua Shier's cloning technology was already quite mature. He went to the laboratory of a very famous biological company in Shanghai and created a mirror space.

The characteristic of mirror space is that, apart from living beings, all buildings and things are exactly the same as in reality.

Therefore, the instruments that exist in that laboratory also exist in the mirror space.

Hua Shier spent a few days cloning a clone in the mirror space, then split off a very tiny wisp of his soul, making it only as strong as an ordinary person's soul, and injected it into the clone.

When the clone opens its eyes, Hua Shier can control it through soul connection, making it as easy to use as an extension of her own body.

Just in case, before using the watch, Hua Shier used strong psychological suggestion to temporarily seal the memories of that clone, which would only be automatically released once the subconscious was certain it was safe!

When Hua Twelve was ready, the Ancient One put a wristwatch on his clone, removed the spacetime energy, and activated it with a small spell.

The next instant, a cold, mechanical voice echoed in the clone's mind, along with a classic line:

"Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to truly live?" Hua Shier, having regained his memories, checked his physical condition.

Yes, although the body is that of an ordinary person, all the necessary memories are still there, so growing up shouldn't be too easy.

Just as Hua Shier was thinking about how to use his memories to dominate the battlefield, quickly earn reward points, and then empty the God's pockets, he felt the atmosphere around him suddenly turn cold.

He looked up and saw Zhang Jie staring coldly at a chubby boy next to Zheng Zha.

In the next instant, Zhang Jie seemed to transform into a black panther. Everyone only saw him bend his leg and spring up, and the next second he was already on top of the chubby boy, sticking a Desert Eagle into the chubby boy's mouth.

Hua Shier recalled that this scene was when the chubby boy interrupted and questioned Zhang Jie while he was speaking, and Zhang Jie used the chubby boy to establish his authority.

Zhang Jie then said in a ruthless tone:

"Do you want to try dying? Can you imagine the infinite horror?"

"I've been through three horror movies. The first one was A Nightmare on Elm Street. There were fifteen newcomers in that movie, and two experienced actors who had survived two horror movies before. But do you know the ending? They were all killed in their dreams. Only me and one other person survived."

Zhang Jie's eyes were filled with murderous intent. The chubby boy was so frightened that he was powerless. A gun had been stuffed into his mouth, so he couldn't even beg for mercy.

Hua Shier's eyes flickered, but he didn't do anything; he simply stood up like the others.

Zheng Zha and the others quickly separated them. After they parted, Zhang Jie first made some sarcastic remarks before continuing his introduction.

He told everyone that for each completed mission, they would receive a thousand reward points, which could be exchanged for anything from the Supreme God, including freedom!

However, the 50,000 redemption points left everyone somewhat desperate. They didn't need any rewards and still had to survive fifty horror movies. But how could they survive fifty horror movies without exchanging for abilities? It was simply impossible!

Next, Zhang Jie began to explain the task:
"Look at your watch. Is there a name in the upper left corner? Say it aloud."

"Matthew Addison!"

Several people read it out at the same time. At the same moment, on the other side of the carriage, a black man among the foreign mercenaries emitted a faint light before returning to normal. This was a hint that this person was the mission target.

"This is the mercenary captain from the movie. To limit the difficulty, the 'God' will eliminate us if we are more than 100 meters away from Matthew. Got it?"

A pretty girl wearing glasses nodded and said:
"One last question, what do these numbers represent?"

She pointed to the countdown on her watch.

Although the girl didn't introduce herself, Hua Shier knew she must be Zhan Lan. Sure enough, she had a great figure and her skin matched the description of being fair and glowing in the original story.

Perhaps because beautiful women receive preferential treatment, Zhang Jie spoke to Zhan Lan more politely:

"That's a countdown. If you survive this period, you can return to the 'Main God Space' alive and receive your reward once the countdown ends. Otherwise, you'll get nothing!"

Just then, the train began to slow down. Zhang Jie finished his cigarette in a few puffs, then picked up his Desert Eagle.

"Alright, the story begins now. Remember not to talk nonsense, especially don't reveal any information about the main god. If they hear our conversation, you'll lose ten points. Ten points for each word. The negative points will be deducted from your next reward. Newbies, survive well!"

As he spoke, he began to walk towards the other side of the carriage. Just as he passed Hua Shier, the latter suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist, then with a swift movement, twisted his arm behind his back and shouted:
"Hold still, police!"

"You think you can fool everyone with a made-up story? Illegal possession of a firearm, suspected kidnapping, and you were just threatening someone. You're going to jail!"

Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan, and the others were stunned. They had all believed it just now, and now someone claiming to be Uncle Hat was jumping out and saying it was a scam. They stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.

"Idiot, you're looking for death!"

Zhang Jie's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he suddenly exerted force with his twisted arm, using only one arm to shake off Hua Shier's two hands and break free in an instant. Clearly, he had also strengthened his body in the Main God Space.

After breaking free, Zhang Jie immediately pulled the trigger on Hua Shier's two thighs.

The reason he attacked Hua Shier's leg was because killing a newbie would deduct a thousand reward points, and he didn't want to lose those points. So he wanted to injure Hua Shier's leg so that he would fend for himself and die on his own. As long as he couldn't keep up with Matthew, he would definitely be eliminated by the main god.

But although his plan was good, he was dumbfounded the next moment. Two shots were fired, and all the bullets missed.

Although Hua Shier's cloned ordinary body did not have the original's superhuman physical abilities, it still retained its memories and experience. When Zhang Jie pulled the trigger and his tendons snapped, Hua Shier sensed it in advance and avoided the muzzle of the gun.

Two 12.7mm Desert Eagle bullets pierced the floor of the carriage, creating two holes.

As Hua Shier dodged the gun barrel, he had already circled around to Zhang Jie's right side. He bent his left index finger and struck Zhang Jie's acupoint under his ribs with his knuckle. This hand gesture is called Phoenix Eye Fist, a technique used in external martial arts to strike acupoints, and it has extremely strong penetrating power.

Although his physique was ordinary, when Zhang Jie was hit by the Phoenix Eye Fist, even though his body had been enhanced, he felt numbness and weakness on one side of his body and his hand holding the gun was also weakened.

Hua Shier snatched the Desert Eagle and fired two shots at Zhang Jie's torso. After Zhang Jie fell to the ground, Hua Shier fired another shot at his head.

Mozambique's shooting method is incredibly professional!
Zhang Jie was bleeding from his chest; his head had been blown off.

The mission had already begun. The foreign mercenaries, who had previously been unable to hear what was happening on one side of the train carriage, now heard the gunshots. They turned around and were immediately shocked, raising their guns in surprise.

Hua Shier had only one thought in his mind: With a gun in hand, I have the world at my command!

Although his physical strength didn't allow Hua Shier to use the flicking gun technique, he could still hit the bullseye every time with ordinary shots.

He had already started shooting when the other person raised their gun.

bang bang bang
Hua Shier fired several shots, each one a headshot. By the time he stopped firing, all that was left on the other side was the mission target, 'Matthew Addison!', and three people being held captive by the mercenaries: Alice, the protagonist of the biohazard series; Spence Parks, who caused the biohazard outbreak by stealing the T-virus; and Matt Addison, who impersonated a police officer to find his sister.

"Oh Shet!"

Matthew Addison hadn't raised his gun earlier because he felt his team was enough to deal with one person, but in the blink of an eye, all his team members were dead, and he was about to open fire on Hua Twelve.

Bah!
Hua Shier fired a shot casually, the bullet going into the barrel of Matthew Addison's MP5 submachine gun and exploding as Matthew pulled the trigger.

"Chinese police"

Hua Shier rushed over, pointed his gun at Matthew, Alice, and Spence, and shouted:
"Don't move, lie down on the ground, Chinese police!"

Matthew and the other two were dumbfounded. Seriously? You, Uncle Hat, from the other side of the world, are coming to our Michigan to enforce the law? Is that really okay?
However, when they were pointed at with a gun and heard that the other party was a policeman, they instinctively covered their heads with their hands and lay down on the ground.

Hua Shier then shouted to Zheng Zha and the others, "It's alright now, I've subdued the thugs!"

Zheng Zha's Adam's apple bobbed slightly:
"Comrade, look at that foreign woman in the red dress, doesn't she look like some big foreign star like Mila Go? Have you ever considered that what that person said before might actually be true!"

Hua Shier knew it was true, but he didn't want to follow the plot step by step, which was too slow. He chose to target Zhang Jie and turn the tables on Zhang Jie.

As a semi-guide, Zhang Jie is destined to die, and he can't be resurrected. So what difference does it make whether he dies sooner or later? Moreover, Hua Shier guessed that killing a guide wouldn't deduct reward points, and this has been proven true.

Of course, Hua Shier did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. Although Zhang Jie was set up by him and shot him first, once you start shooting, you are not innocent, but deserve to die. Hua Shier killed without any psychological burden.

As for those foreigners who got their heads blown off, Hua Twelve's moral compass didn't even consider their existence. He killed them, so what?
