But the strange thing is that there is no keychain or chain lock at the main entrance of the church hall. How could it be stuck here and unable to be opened?

But soon,

Javier's eyes were fixed on the bell tower next to the church.

Generally, churches have bell towers to remind believers to gather for prayer. But if you can't get in anywhere, then it's very likely that the mechanism for Open Sesame is inside the bell tower.

It is said to be a bell tower.

But it was just an ordinary bell tower, with a spire as tall and thin as a church, and a golden bell hanging on top. A thick hemp rope was hanging down, which could be used to shake and hit the bell when needed to make a loud bell sound. It was the oldest bell tower, not a gear-operated bell tower...

"clang----!"

“Ding-ding-ding-ding!!!”

Looking at the big metal clock above my head,

Javier didn't hesitate. He took the thick hemp rope and started shaking it. As the rope was shaking, a deafening roar came from the huge bell, slightly stinging his eardrums. Javier even suspected... This thing couldn't be heard even miles away. It was simply a noise maker!

but,

Although the huge bell was shaken,

But the expected things did not happen, the hidden mechanism did not appear, and the main door of the church did not open, which made Javier and the other two confused. Could it be that they had guessed wrong again... Isn't this bell tower a mechanism for unlocking?

But it was soon proved that Javier's guess was wrong, because the real mechanism was on the floor below the bell tower. In the corners of the four stone brick floors, there were four special patterns, which should correspond to some mythological stories.

And by chance...

At this moment, Rebecca, who had the aura of the protagonist, stepped on the correct floor pattern.

"Crack!"

A strange sound was heard.

The floor beneath their feet dropped down instantly, and as if a mechanism had been activated, the main door of the church, which had been locked and could not be opened at all, suddenly opened automatically. This inexplicable mechanism scared Javier and the other two. It turned out that the floor was the real mechanism.

"Huh?"

"The door of the church is actually open. Hey... Javier, you guessed wrong. The floor is the switch to open the door of the church."

Feeling the strangeness under my feet,

Rebecca immediately raised her head and exclaimed in surprise. She didn't expect that she was so lucky to touch the button at once.

"floor?"

Following Rebecca's gaze,

Javier also slowly looked at the floor under Rebecca's feet. As expected, a part of the floor had sunk in. Seeing this... Javier hurriedly asked Billy to check the main door of the church. As expected, it was open without any obstruction.

But at this moment,

Just as Javier and the other two were about to enter the church, the door of the church that had been opened suddenly closed again, as if playing a joke on them. This made Javier slightly stunned, not knowing what was going on.

It was not until he saw the sunken mechanical floor in the corner of the bell tower rise up again that Javier suddenly realized that this thing was a gravity device. A person had to stand on it at all times to maintain entry into the main hall of the church.

This design...

Isn't it just to separate these three partners?

He wanted to let them enter the church alone, while the other one stayed outside. If it was just Rebecca and Billy Cohen, they might really fall for it, but now with Javier... Haha, this mechanism design is too stupid.

In full view of the public——

Javier ran directly to the lake next to the church and fired several shots at the stone pillar guardrail beside the lake with his Desert Eagle pistol. The stone pillar guardrail, which was already covered with moss and eroded by wind and rain for many years, was shattered to the ground in an instant. Holding the heavy stone pier, Javier moved it directly to the mechanism floor under the corner of the bell tower, and then let go and smashed it down hard!

"Oh!"

Feeling the gravity falling,

The mechanism started again, and the originally tightly closed door of the main hall of the church quickly opened again. Javier patted the dust on his hands with satisfaction. Which stupid designer set up this mechanism? It was too easy to separate their group!

"Okay, it's over neatly,"

"Let's go into the church. I want to see what secrets are hidden inside. After all... I have many sinful secrets in my heart. I want to confess them to our great God and beg for His forgiveness. Amen!"

I wiped the stains off my hands with my pants.

Javier's expression changed quickly, and he acted like a devout Christian. He said seriously, which made Rebecca and Billy beside him look at him with contempt. What sins can you confess? After all, you are a complete bastard.

Moreover,

You are a member of the Raccoon City Police Department's STARS team. When did you convert to Christianity? How come I have never heard of it? Did you convert temporarily? God will not accept a lost lamb like you who is so obsessed with the subject...

"Ta Tata..."

But Javier ignored the contempt of Rebecca and Billy Cohen.

Instead, he calmly stepped into the main hall of the church. Humph... You boring believers, how could you possibly understand the Lord's intention? The Lord likes nothing more than to take in lost lambs like him.

The interior of this church,

As expected, it is very beautiful.

There are colorful broken glass on each arched window. When the sun shines through in the morning, this kind of glass will emit a rainbow-like light, which is very beautiful and sacred.

In addition to these, there are many lifelike reliefs carved on the walls inside the church, even the most famous one is the Last Supper of Jesus and his twelve disciples. The portrait praying in the center is not Jesus himself, but the more sacred and great Virgin Mary. As the Mother of God, she is standing in the portrait with a gentle and kind face, holding Jesus in her arms.

Fully demonstrating the tenderness and greatness of a mother——!

Overall... this temporary church is indeed more beautiful than the church in Raccoon City. It is worthy of the Umbrella Corporation. They are willing to spend money and have a very good aesthetic.

With the warm yellow light,

The Virgin Mary in the church is set off to be even more sacred and full of glory, making people feel pious, as if they have endless words to say...

only,

While it was sacred, it also gave Javier a strange feeling.

This weird feeling is reflected in the atmosphere, not the surrounding environment. The surrounding environment is sacred enough, but the breath is quite weird, which makes people have an ominous premonition. It is hard to explain and it is very helpless!

But, the play has to be the master,

"Merciful and great Lord, and loving Virgin Mary, your faithful followers are in great confusion. I am like a lost lamb that has lost its way in the vast grassland, wandering around and hitting the wall. I have a sin that I want to beg for your forgiveness."

"I have extraordinary power, but I don't know how to use it. So, should I just go with the flow and do whatever I want, or should I put the people first and save them from danger like you did? This question has troubled me for a long time. Please answer my humble request...!"

With a serious look,

Javier stood under the images of Jesus and the Virgin Mary and prayed earnestly, trying to get a response from the Lord, but unfortunately... the Lord is a liar and has never answered the questions of the lost lambs.

After waiting for a long time,

There was no imagined voice.

This made Javier angry and helpless. He was angry that the Western gods were indeed liars, a bunch of frauds who deceived the world and stole the reputation. He was helpless... Where did the gods come from these days? Could he not be so naive? Although it was true that he had a golden finger, having a golden finger did not mean that there really was a god. This behavior was too funny.

Even Rebecca next to him was speechless.

What do you mean you have extraordinary powers? I don’t know how to use them. Why haven’t I seen anything special or magical about you along the way... You really can brag, and you brag to the Lord at that. Are you really not afraid of the Lord’s punishment?

"cut!"

"Jesus is really fake and useless. I don't know why there are so many believers. Or is it because there are too many believers and they are too lazy to reply to messages from a lost lamb like me? That's right... There are also many girls in my phone who are attracted by my beauty. Many times they want to call me to have sex, but there are too many of them and I am too lazy to reply."

"Our Son of God Jesus must be like this too. How pitiful!"

His expression changed.

Javier shrugged and changed his mindset to complain, which made Rebecca next to him raise her head completely. This guy is hopeless.

I don't want to bother with Javier, the soliloquy actor.

Rebecca and Billy began to search the church. If they guessed correctly, there should be some kind of props or information here. After all, they had been like this all the way.

When Javier saw that no one paid attention to him,

He opened the door of the room next to the church hall. It should be the study where the priest usually stays, because the room is filled with various books, all neatly placed on the bookshelf. A desk lamp next to the desk is still on, and under the lamp is a typewriter that Javier is very familiar with!

typewriter--

A prop that runs through most of the plot scenes of Resident Evil. Whenever a boss battle is about to take place or an important chapter is passed, this thing will appear, because the typewriter is the archiver of Resident Evil, a thing specifically used for archiving and reading files.

Retro design,

Yellowed paper,

The familiar 26 English letters and the real mechanical keyboard. Compared with this thing, the mechanical axis of the current computer keyboard is simply weak. This is the real mechanical axis. As if on a whim, Javier walked to the typewriter and skillfully typed a row of English letters.

Probably means:

"On July 1998, 7, at 23:3 in the morning, the Raccoon City Police Department's STARS team, Javier Lee, Rebecca Chambers, and a surviving Marine, sneaked into the research institute to explore and search for evidence of the Umbrella Corporation's heinous crimes. Now they are passing by the church and have left evidence behind to prevent any accidents..."

A simple archive is completed.

After doing all this, Javier breathed a sigh of relief. Just when he was about to doubt whether this typewriter had the function of saving the game,

Right now,

Rebecca and Billy Cohen, who were in the church hall, screamed as if they were attacked by something!

"what--!!!!"

"Bats, so many bats, where do all these bats come from!"

"Be careful, these bats are carrying viruses, don't let them bite you! Bang-bang-bang!!!"

Bursts of screams were heard one after another, accompanied by deafening gunshots, which made Javier, who was in the study, panic and he hurriedly ran out of the study. Could it be that the boss really came?

Chapter 41: Church Burning

bat--

Lots of bats.

I don’t know since when, a lot of bats began to infiltrate the church. Their bodies were extremely black, and they were like dark shadows running around in the sky above the church, making chirping sounds from their mouths, which was particularly harsh and made people feel extremely annoyed!

and,

All of these bats have scarlet eyes.

The teeth are much sharper than those of ordinary bats. There is no doubt that these bats are just like the crows outside the institute. They have eaten the rotten flesh of zombies and have been infected and turned into mutants. They are much more aggressive.

Even more difficult to deal with——

Or the solidarity of these bats. Although bats will not hunt together like wolves, they can indeed communicate as a team, which is something that ordinary animals do not have. Bats will go out in groups to forage for food, and then when they return to their nests, they will gather together in large groups to roost and rest.

This means that they are very tolerant of each other's species, and therefore very strong in communication. Once you are targeted by them, it is difficult to escape the hunting range and you will be harassed from time to time, not to mention that the virus now strengthens their series of behaviors, which makes it even more difficult to deal with!

It is also worth mentioning that

In fact, 70% of bat species are vegetarians, mainly feeding on nectar and fruit. Only the remaining 30% choose to suck blood for a living. But unfortunately, now they are infected by the virus and become extremely violent. I am afraid that even omnivorous bats will be extremely eager for flesh and blood.

And even more terrifying,

These bats carry a large number of viruses. As we all know, bats are one of the most adaptable mammals in the world. They can withstand a wide range of temperatures, up to 50°C, which is a fatal fever for humans. The organs and brain in the body will be burned, but for bats, it is completely tolerable.

Then when the ambient temperature reaches about 16°C, bats enter a deep sleep, reducing their metabolism and energy consumption, which allows them to survive longer.

This amazing physical constitution, coupled with excellent flying and propagation capabilities,

This has caused bats, a mammal, to become one of the best natural carriers of zoonotic viruses. Their excellent temperature adaptability allows them to accommodate a large number of viruses. A bat may have more than a dozen disease viruses in its body. This is a very scary thing.

Therefore, scientists speculate that

Many human disasters and plagues,

It is most likely spread by bats. After all, they are the most adaptable to viruses and will not die, and they have excellent flying and transmission capabilities, so it is very easy for them to spread a virus!

However, in fact, it is true.

Many modern viruses are indeed carried by bats, but it is not advisable to blame them for this. However, in any case, bats carry a lot of viruses. Even if they are only slightly infected by the T virus now, if they are bitten...

It is estimated that those who are infected will suffer a fate worse than death.

Because you have no idea what the T virus combined with a dozen disease viruses in bats is. If such a mixed virus is injected into the human body, the taste must be very sour. Even if a great immortal came and gave you a golden elixir antidote, it would be impossible to save you!

therefore--

In Javier's view,

These bats are undoubtedly very troublesome infected bodies.
