The area where the three Class D personnel were located was exposed to approximately 0.005 ml of vaporized T virus, which is about one-tenth the volume of a drop of water.

Under the influence of these vaporized viruses, the three Class D personnel soon began to show symptoms.

Generally speaking, judging from the situation in the Resident Evil world, it takes about several tens of minutes to several hours for a normal person to become a zombie after being infected with the T-virus. During this period, the virus has an incubation period, after which the infected person will experience various adverse reactions, such as fever, vomiting, weakness, confusion, etc.

Now, perhaps because they are constantly under the shadow of the virus, the symptoms of the three Level D personnel appeared much earlier than normal, only a few minutes to a dozen minutes later.

Three Class D personnel began to feel unwell, experiencing adverse reactions such as collapsing, vomiting, dizziness, and convulsions in the No. 1 test area.

Soon, about half an hour later, the three Class D personnel stood up, their rationality completely gone, and began to wander aimlessly around the experimental area.

In just half an hour, the three infected Class D personnel developed symptoms of skin ulceration and turned from healthy people into zombies.

That's a phenomenon where the body's nutrients are consumed in large quantities during the T-virus infection process, resulting in rapid ulceration of the body.

Soon, the gate connecting Area 2 to Area 1 opened, and five armed guards swiftly killed the three D-level personnel who had been infected and turned into zombies. Afterward, disinfection personnel began to disinfect the experimental area.

Everything that happened during this time was meticulously recorded by the researchers watching from the sidelines, so that they could later coordinate with researchers studying other viruses.

Three hours had passed. After the personnel from Area 2 and Area 3 coordinated their efforts and the personnel from Area 3 conducted a second inspection of the experimental area, the door connecting to the exit finally opened, and the initial experiment came to an end.

The corpses that have turned into zombies will be collected by professionals and subjected to secondary research and detailed analysis within the containment facility.

"The research data has been collected. We will need to conduct ten more attack experiments for comparison to gather the most detailed information. Director, would you like to continue watching?"

The researchers standing nearby asked Takahashi Yu a question.

To be honest, because the experiment was so dangerous, the researchers were all terrified and turned pale. However, Takahashi Yu remained calm and composed, which truly impressed these adults.

As expected of the director, he can easily do things that are difficult for them.

"Let's continue. I'll leave if something comes up."

Upon hearing this, Takahashi Yu nodded.

To be honest, he was also a little uncomfortable. After all, this time he was not facing an abnormal disaster that threatened humanity, but a dangerous experiment that he had organized himself. He had a hard time getting over that mental hurdle, but fortunately, the feeling was not strong and Takahashi Yu easily suppressed it.

Ultimately, if he can't even overcome this obstacle, how can he save the world?

Sacrifice is inevitable, especially when it involves sacrificing a bunch of trash. Even he can't guarantee that he can save everyone. As long as you don't cross the line, never lay a hand on innocent people.

......

Soon, two days passed, and Takahashi Yu asked the academy for leave, spending all her time at the shelter.

Clearly, the principal of Shuchi Academy understood that Takahashi Yu's identity as the head of the Takahashi Foundation was not simply that of a student. Therefore, he very sensibly granted Takahashi Yu the privilege of taking leave at any time without being punished. Takahashi Yu was very satisfied with this and promised to donate more funds to the academy next year. The conversation between the two parties was very pleasant.

The initial experiments on the T-virus are finally nearing completion. With the research data collected during this period, further human trials should be unnecessary unless there is progress in the research on the perfect T-virus, in which case the next stage of experiments will not begin.

Just as Takahashi Yu was about to make himself a cup of coffee and take a break, Umebayashi, who was far away in Chiba Prefecture, suddenly sent him a new message.

"Lord Takahashi Yu, a new anomalous disaster has occurred in Chiba City."

......

Chiba City, Soubu High School.

Yukino walked out of the campus, unusually without a chauffeur, and walked home instead.

Because their own driver nearly hit a pedestrian this morning, the driver who usually picks up and drops off Yukino Yukinoshita was fired without explanation.

In response, Yukino Yukinoshita, who was increasingly dissatisfied with her family, refused her father's suggestion to have the new driver pick her up after school and chose to go home alone.

Yukino no longer wants to rely on the Yukinoshita family's power. She longs to prove herself to her mother and sister and has decided to live alone.

Originally, her mother would never have agreed, but her older sister, Yukino Yukinoshita, unusually pleaded for her, and with her father's help, Yukino's mother finally relented. Yukino will soon move from home to live alone near the school.

Thinking of this, Yukino felt a great weight lifted from her heart, and her steps became lighter.

Chapter 43: The Ghoul Attack, Yukino's Panic

Take a 15-minute tram ride through the city, then walk for 20 minutes.

The Yukinoshita family's residence was not located in a remote area, but because it was in a wealthy area of ​​Chiba City, there were far fewer pedestrians along the way.

I often pass through this section of road where snow falls, so this phenomenon isn't surprising; however, there seem to be exceptionally few people around today...

Only the sound of footsteps echoed on the silent road, and the setting sun stretched the shadows longer and longer.

Yukino Yukinoshita's pace gradually slowed down as she slowly realized something was wrong.

Even on a normally deserted road, there shouldn't be not a single person to be seen at this time of day!

—Zzzzt!

A screeching sound came from behind. Yukino quickly turned around, but she didn't see anyone. There were only a few scratches on the ground and the walls beside the road, as if they had been rubbed by something sharp and hard.

Upon seeing this, Yukino dared not linger and immediately turned around to flee the street.

She didn't know what she had encountered, but Yukino knew that the street was made of hard stone, and even the walls were made of brick, which could leave scratches. Whatever it was, it was very dangerous for her.

Unfortunately, before Yukino could escape, the creature in the shadows seemed to have sensed her intentions and jumped out from its hiding place, slamming into the ground in front of Yukino.

It was a brown-haired adult male who looked to be around twenty years old. His body was hunched over, and his scarlet eyes were fixed on the prey in front of him. Several blood-red tails that looked like tentacles swayed restlessly behind him, occasionally scraping the ground and walls, leaving deep dents.

Now, Yukino Yukinoshita understood where those scratches came from.

"Hunger, humans...food...humans...food..."

The adult male in front of her, with a monstrous blood-red tail on his back, seemed to be in a very abnormal mental state. After jumping out and blocking Yukino Yukinoshita's path, he stayed in place and muttered to himself in a hoarse voice.

Yukino Yukinoshita dared not confront the monster head-on and turned to try to escape. However, the monster seemed to have seen through Yukino's plan. Its blood-red tail, like a tentacle, shot out from behind and suddenly pierced through two cars parked on both sides of the street, crashing into Yukino Yukinoshita who was trying to run away.

Whizzing!

Yukino Yukinoshita instinctively lowered her head. Two cars that had been thrown off course roared past overhead and crashed heavily on the other side of the street, blocking the only exit.

Faced with this scene, Yukino Yukinoshita dared not linger and quickly turned and ran into another corner.

Behind them, the monster leaped and bounded, relentlessly pursuing them.

Before long, the two chased and fled, turning and twisting until they entered an alley, where Yukino Yukinoshita finally stopped.

To Yukino's despair, she realized that she had unknowingly run into a dead end. The walls on all sides were four meters high, which was not something Yukino could easily climb over.

Behind Yukino, the monsters from before had blocked the alley entrance and were closing in on her.

If the opponent were an ordinary person, given Yukino Yukinoshita's past training in Aikido, she could easily take down even one or two strong, adult men.

However, the other party is clearly not on the same level as ordinary people. Putting aside everything else, just take the action of blocking the road just now. The fact that the other party was able to easily swing a car weighing more than a ton into the air and finally smash it in front of Yukino Yukinoshita is a force that Yukino Yukinoshita's slender body could not possibly participate in.

"Humans...food...hunger..."

The monster seemed to have gradually come to its senses and was no longer staying in place, but slowly walking towards Yukino Yukinoshita.

Faced with this situation, Yukino Yukinoshita refused to surrender. She took off her schoolbag and threw the bag full of books at her opponent with all her might, trying to hurt her with the power of knowledge.

However, if a tail can be pierced by a car, what about a few books?

The backpack, thrown into the air, was pierced by a tail. The monster approaching Yukino, sensing the scent of food so close at hand, could no longer suppress its impulse. Its scarlet eyes, filled with bloodthirsty excitement, charged towards Yukino.

Just when Yukino thought she was about to die, a loud bang rang out all around her.

The walls on both sides of the alley were suddenly smashed down, and a special forces team of about fifty people, dressed in black special forces uniforms and wearing masks, poured in from all sides and the entrance, and surrounded the target in an instant.

Several special forces soldiers standing at the forefront, holding riot shields, rushed out and forcefully rammed back the ghouls that were charging towards them.

"Calling the containment facility. Second squad has located the target. The target is currently exhibiting extremely aggressive behavior and is preliminarily determined to be highly dangerous. Requesting the execution of forced containment measures."

"Repeating, the target is currently exhibiting extremely aggressive behavior, and the initial assessment indicates a high level of danger. Requesting mandatory containment measures!"

"Request received. The target's current condition meets the requirements. Forced containment is permitted. Undertake the task of dismantling the target's ability to resist while ensuring a minimum level of recovery."

Chapter 44: Yukino's Lucky Yet Unlucky Life

"Roger that!"

Upon receiving the order, the special forces team members standing at the front quickly drew their bayonets and rushed towards the ghoul who had been knocked away.

Swish!

Faced with this situation, the brown-haired ghoul's tail swayed and jutted forward.

However, the tip of the tail that had previously pierced through the sheet metal was now pierced by an inconspicuous military dagger. The immense force that could have overturned the car only caused the few special forces soldiers who came to meet them to retreat a short distance.

Meanwhile, the special forces soldiers behind them were not idle either. While the brown-haired ghoul's harpoon was pinned down by the military dagger, they set up their guns and aimed at his body.

A burst of gunfire rang out continuously. Sensing the danger, the brown-haired ghoul desperately pulled back its two tail kagune to protect itself, attempting to safeguard itself in this way.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain. Although ghouls have strength far exceeding that of ordinary people, their physical abilities are not that abnormal. In the original work, Rize Kamishiro, an SS-class ghoul, almost died from being captured by a falling object, let alone an ordinary henchman.

Soon, amidst a hail of bullets, the target ghoul's body fell to the ground. Although his kagune was large, it was clearly insufficient to protect his entire body.

"The objective is to render the person incapable of resistance and implement containment measures."

With the special forces team members working in perfect harmony and with a clear division of labor, a ghoul was dragged away by several special forces members after his magazine was emptied for more than half a minute, without any chance of resistance.

They carried him all the way to the entrance of the alley and threw the ghoul's blood-soaked body into a transport vehicle that had somehow arrived.

Are all these people Superman?

Yukino Yukinoshita, watching this scene, was stunned.

Yukino Yukinoshita had already felt how terrifying the monster that had been chasing her was. However, just now, these armed personnel who suddenly rushed out not only pierced the monster's tail, which was strong enough to penetrate steel, but also directly blocked the monster's power.

You have to understand, that's the kind of force that can lift two cars weighing over a ton. These people in front of us tried to block it head-on, but they only managed to retreat a short distance. How much strength does that take?

Given the way these people had just broken through the wall, even though the monster chasing her had been taken away by this group, Yukino Yukinoshita still didn't subconsciously believe that she was out of danger.

It was only then that the members of the special forces finally noticed Yukino Yukinoshita, who had been trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible.

"Calling headquarters, an unsuspecting person has been found on site. Should we take action against them?"

deal with?

Upon hearing this word, Yukino Yukinoshita immediately had some unpleasant thoughts.

Without a doubt, the monster that had been chasing her earlier, although it had a human appearance, did not possess the characteristics of a normal creature, such as its blood-red tails and astonishing strength. Add to that the equally powerful and fully armed personnel before her...

Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but suspect that she might have accidentally encountered a secret experiment by some mysterious organization, and that she had just happened to see something she shouldn't have seen.

These days, when people talk about "dealing with" something, do they really mean just getting rid of it literally?

Thinking of this, Yukino Yukinoshita took two steps back without making a sound, but her position had already been surrounded by special forces members, and with her current physical strength, there was no possibility of escape.
