From Resident Evil to becoming a gacha god

A week later.

At Manhattan Central Hospital in New York, a grand press conference was held as scheduled.

Xiao Miao stood in the crowd wearing sunglasses, surrounded by enthusiastic family members of patients.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to solemnly announce with great excitement that the Phase II clinical trial of Kripine virus has been a complete success!"

"All 2,315 volunteers who received treatment had their cancer cells completely eliminated! The cure rate is 100%!!!"

As the host announced the result in a trembling voice, the venue erupted in cheers. Countless family members of the volunteers wept with joy, and the cheers nearly lifted the ceiling.

"Waaaaah, thank you, thank God!"

"Fool, you should thank Professor Crippin!"

"It must be God's will! God sent Professor Crippin to save us!"

"Thank goodness, my wife is finally alright."

"..."

Xiao Miao suddenly heard a familiar voice in the noisy crowd. He looked around and saw Alice pushing through the crowd and walking towards him.

The two met up, their conversation completely drowned out by the cheers from the surrounding crowd.

"Have you found anything on your end?"

Alice shook her head: "No, it's a normal virus research institute. Everything is legal and compliant, and there have been no illegal human experiments."

Xiao Miao glanced at the frenzied crowd around him: "There are more than enough legitimate volunteers; there's absolutely no need for them to take any risks."

Alice nodded: "It seems the Umbrella Corporation really wasn't behind this. We need to find our next target."

At this moment, the host on stage solemnly announced Professor Crippin's appearance. A small door on one side opened, and Professor Crippin walked onto the stage in high heels.

Xiao Miao looked up at Professor Kripine's head but did not see the dice of fate.

pity.

Let's try our luck with Professor Robert at Wells.

"Let's go, it's too noisy here, let's leave first."

"it is good."

Professor Robert works for the U.S. military, and ordinary people would never see him under normal circumstances.

Xiao Miao had intended to use his status as a reporter to invite Professor Robert out under the guise of an interview, but he couldn't find Professor Robert's email address at all, and the invitation he sent to the U.S. military also went unanswered.

Finally, Xiao Miao had a flash of inspiration and contacted the reporter who had interviewed Professor Robert. The two arranged to meet at a coffee shop in the city center.

The reporter was balding on top of his head, tall and thin, with beady eyes, and looked somewhat sleazy.

After meeting, Xiao Miao didn't bother with pleasantries and went straight to the point: "I need Professor Robert's contact information."

The reporter shook his head immediately: "Impossible, I don't have his contact information either."

Xiao Miao frowned: "Then how did you find him in the first place?"

The reporter smiled and said, "That's a trade secret, I can't comment."

Xiao Miao understood, took out two Franklin bills and placed them on the table. The bright green banknotes immediately caught the other person's eye.

The reporter scoffed, "You're wasting your time. I have professional ethics; I would never sell any information about the person involved for a mere two hundred yuan."

Xiao Miao pulled out two more bills, and the four Franklin bills were stacked together. The reporter glanced at them twice and then looked away with difficulty.

"Give me a break! I'd rather starve to death, die out there, or jump off this cliff than take your filthy money!"

As the sixth Franklin was placed on the table, the reporter's tone softened: "If it were you, would you betray your information channels?"

A hint of impatience flashed across Xiao Miao's face as he pulled out four more Franklins and stacked them together: "It's just a private contact method or an opportunity to meet. This is my highest offer."

The reporter was breathing heavily. A thousand US dollars was equivalent to more than half a month's salary for him. He subconsciously wanted to agree, but his greed made him think twice.

Maybe they'll ask for more money.

Seeing that the other party was still hesitating, Xiao Miao picked up her coffee, took a sip, and made no attempt to hide her impatience: "If you want to say it, just say it now, or I'll deduct it from your account."

"Stop joking, I said no..."

Swish!

Before the reporter could finish his rambling, Xiao Miao snatched away two tickets.

The reporter couldn't sit still any longer. He pounced on the table like a vicious dog grabbing poop, clutching the remaining eight banknotes tightly in his hands. Just as he was about to get up and put the banknotes in his pocket, a slender hand pressed down on his wrist.

The hands, though not broad or thick, were surprisingly strong, like a vise. The reporter tried with all his might to pull his hands back, but they wouldn't budge.

"Tell me the intelligence first."

"..." The reporter's expression changed several times before he lowered his head and whispered, "In Central Park."

"Explain in more detail."

"Every weekend morning from 6:30 to 7:00, Professor Robert goes for a run in Central Park. You go there first, then...blah blah blah, Wabi-bab..."

The reporter, as if she had opened a floodgate, recounted the entire process of how she created the opportunity to "coincidentally" meet Professor Robert.

Xiao Miao nodded and noted it down, then got up and left. The reporter, feeling like he had been granted a pardon, stuffed the eight banknotes into his pocket.

Two days later, on Saturday, Xiao Miao arrived early at Central Park and waited patiently, successfully spotting a familiar face on the lakeside path.

Will Smith, now he should be called Professor Robert.

As Xiao Miao expected, a fate die was floating above Robert's head. When he tried to communicate with the fate die with his mind, the information that came back surprised him.

[(Suspected) Plot Character: Robert Neville]

[Current Bond: Cannot be activated]

[Draw Cost: 300 Fate Points]

Isn't the cost of one draw a bit too high? And what does it mean that the bond can't be activated? Is this person heartless? Can a story character still be 'suspected'?

As Xiao Miao approached using the method the reporter had instructed, several plainclothes officers immediately blocked his way. It seemed that the previous interview had sparked public outcry, leading the military to increase Professor Robert's security level.

"Fine, let's try one shot first!"

Since the bond cannot be activated, there is no need to force it. Xiao Miao communicated with the fate dice with his mind, and 300 fate points disappeared instantly.

A burst of orange light erupted from the die above Robert's head, and Xiao Miao's breathing suddenly became rapid!

Oranges are out!

Under Xiao Miao's expectant gaze, a special card appeared on the system panel.

[Item Card: Invitation - Nightmare's Bane (Instantly grants one Trial of the Gods upon use)]

After drawing the card, the fate dice above Professor Robert's head slowly faded and disappeared completely under Xiao Miao's gaze!

A flash of understanding crossed Xiao Miao's eyes.

This special situation can perhaps only be triggered by interacting with the main character before the story begins.

On the surface, this invitation is just an opportunity to travel through the heavens, but the main world is not a harmonious and beautiful paradise. If you encounter a crisis that you cannot overcome in the future, you can use it to temporarily escape from the enemy.

Then take a Superman Hancock character card from Robert and go back to give the enemy a big surprise.

Xiao Miao stopped, turned and left under the watchful eyes of the plainclothes officers, returning to the hotel to meet up with Alice.

Alice was also busy during this time, finding clues in the vast sea of ​​news and successfully locating a virus research base of the Umbrella Corporation.

"After reading these news reports, I suspect that the Umbrella Corporation is colluding with this local councilor named Ichiro Fujito. Ichiro Fujito is their lackey planted in the government. The Umbrella Corporation has invested in building a marine science research institute here!"

Alice presented the clues she had found to Xiao Miao.

"Ichiro Fujito? In Japan?" Xiao Miao paused for a moment after hearing the name, then flipped through the clues and noticed a familiar name: "Tokoname City Marine Science Research Institute...Tokoname City!!!"

"Have you been to this city?" Alice sensed the subtlety in Xiao Miao's tone.

"I've never been there, I've only heard of it."

Xiao Miao was very familiar with Bed Owner City. The name came from an anime he watched in his previous life. He had a deep impression of the scene where Ru kiln dodged bullets!

"We have to go to the main city of this bed, let's set off now!" Xiao Miao immediately said to Alice.

This kind of world with low combat power is perfect for him, Xiao, to pretend to... cough cough, to seize fate points!
