The Only Player in Infinite Terror

Chapter 38 Where did all these traitors come from?

To the black captain Matthew, who was expressing his loyalty, Ling Qi replied meaningfully, "I am satisfied with your loyalty, but it's not time to completely relax yet."

"Those rebels have already laid a trap for us outside."

Are you scared?

Without any hesitation, the Black captain replied resolutely, "Reporting, Chief! As long as we're with you, we're not afraid of anything!"

Ling Qi chuckled lightly: "Very good, very energetic."

"I've come to Raccoon City for only three things: fairness, fairness, and fucking fairness!"

"Over the years, Raccoon City has been plagued by chaos under the rule of certain rebel groups."

"Especially good soldiers like you who are so loyal to the company, how can we allow you to be consistently overlooked and even ostracized?"

"But it doesn't matter, because I'm here! It's time to set things right!"

These words not only excited the black captain Matthew, but also the other mercenaries.

It's good to set things right!

They naturally understood Ling Qi's implication: once Ling Qi had purged the rebels in the company, he would have to arrange for his own people to fill the vacant positions, right?

Who are Ling Qi's own people?

Those must be the loyalists who were "ostracized" by the rebels and followed Ling Qi through thick and thin!

Matt, the movie's protagonist who is distraught and filled with resentment towards the Umbrella Corporation, suddenly finds hope for revenge upon hearing these words.

Not long ago, Matt, who was handcuffed, found his sister Lisa on the way back to the platform.

Having already turned into a zombie, she was shot in the head while attempting to attack the mercenaries.

After overhearing Ling Qi and the others' conversation, Matt didn't want to miss this opportunity for revenge.

He scoffed at Ling Qi's words, the executive of the company that was protecting him.

These executives from big companies are all birds of a feather. No one knows better than him just how evil and blasphemous these self-proclaimed superiors really are!

Where did all these traitors come from? To put it bluntly, it's just infighting among them!

But he knew all too well that he, an ordinary civilian, was nothing more than an ant in front of his enemies—the executives of the Umbrella Corporation, the protectors of Raccoon City.

However, since Ling Qi, this outsider, is very dissatisfied with the local bullies in Raccoon City, then this is his chance!

He decided to take the risk.

"Director Yuan, I can testify!" Matt shouted. "My sister Lisa is a systems analyst at Hive. Before the incident at Hive, she told me on the phone that a group within the company was trying to recruit her to steal the T-virus stock solution and antibodies."

She asked those people if they weren't afraid of being exposed, and to reassure her, they told her that the entire upper echelons of Raccoon City were backing them!

"I think my sister was probably murdered in the Hive because she refused them out of loyalty to the company!"

This is a lie.

In fact, Matt is an environmental activist, and his sister Lisa, strictly speaking, is not a "loyal subject" of the company, but rather a traitor.

Because she was an undercover agent for an environmental organization, her purpose in infiltrating Hive was to investigate and expose the crimes of Umbrella Corporation.

Ling Qi was well aware of this, but he was even more aware of one thing: sometimes the dead are more useful than the living.

"Is this true?" Ling Qi feigned surprise at just the right moment. "Matthew, quickly have your men remove this witness's handcuffs and protect him properly later."

"Don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you and avenge your sister!"

"I swear, I will never let our loyal employees and their families bleed and weep!"

Matt pointed at Alice and pleaded, "Director, could you help us unlock this lady's handcuffs? She was just misled by that traitor."

"I believe that she will definitely be willing to contribute to your cause of restoring order."

Ling Qi knew very well that mere handcuffs could not restrain this movie heroine who had awakened her telekinesis.

Therefore, he was happy to do her a favor and ease the tension in his relationship with the female lead.

"No problem." Ling Qi nodded readily.

Alice, her handcuffs removed, remained expressionless; she wanted to give Ling Qi a cold shoulder.

But upon seeing Ling Qi's smiling face, all the unpleasantness from before melted away like snow under the sunlight.

And she didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Ling Qi and the other people were different from the image she had in mind before.

Brother Jie glanced at her with some surprise, then intensified the hypnotic power of his suggestive eye, making her completely forget her thoughts at that moment.

The train slowed down again and gradually approached the platform.

The platform was deathly silent, just as it had been before everyone disembarked.

Matthew did not relax. He gave a tactical hand signal to his mercenaries and led the way in a reconnaissance formation, slowly advancing towards the exit.

A small infrared dot suddenly appeared and shone on Matthew's body.

The battle-hardened Black captain, Matthew, felt a chill run down his spine. Without a second thought, he rolled to the side, shouting, "Ambush! Take cover!"

Experience told him that it was too late for him to dodge.

The expected pain of being shot did not come.

The muffled sniper rifle shot came from under the silencer. The black captain Matthew looked closely and saw a tranquilizer bullet frozen in mid-air, half a meter away from where he had just been.

Immediately following was the sound of sniper rifles firing.

But without exception, all those tranquilizer darts crashed into an invisible wall and remained motionless in mid-air.

Ling Qi emerged from the carriage at some point.

He crossed his arms over his shoulders, stood suspended in mid-air, and walked step by step through the air.

Seeing Ling Qi's calm and composed demeanor, the black captain Matthew and his mercenaries, who had been panicked by the ambush, all calmed down.

Yeah, what's the panic? Director Yuan is invincible!

"Who gave you the courage to attack the company's top management? Are you trying to start a major rebellion?!" Ling Qi asked calmly.

His voice wasn't loud, yet it seemed to travel hundreds of meters in the air, booming like thunder in the ears of all the ambushers on the ground.

The UBCS squad soldiers, dressed in the same black uniforms as Matthew and others, looked at each other in bewilderment.

They couldn't understand how a perfectly good bullet could be stopped by something unseen.

They dared not continue their attack when the mysterious figure who could walk in the void claimed to be a senior executive of the company.

The person in charge of the operation on site thought to himself, "Oh no, we're in trouble. Are we going to get caught up in the company's internal strife?"

Without a second's hesitation, he immediately contacted the next level of UBCS leadership via walkie-talkie—Major Timothy Kane, the military director.

"Supervisor, an unexpected situation has arisen during the arrest operation. There appears to be a high-ranking company official among the target group! Should we continue the operation?"
