Kamen Rider ZZZ from the American comic book world

"Are you alright?" Li Ai turned and asked. He knew what Sherry had gone through in Raccoon City and was worried that this might touch on Sherry's psychological trauma.

Shirley shook her head, then said confidently, "It's okay, I'm not a little girl who has to hide anymore."

“Alright, then we’ll get started.” Li Ai looked down into the depths of the sewer and released all the ZZZ sensors to scout ahead.

Before long, a rough holographic map of the sewers appeared on Li Ai's glasses. The two followed the holographic map and soon arrived at a steel gate guarded by soldiers.

This steel gate appears to have been built a long time ago. There are only simple electronic switches nearby, which are not connected to the internet and there is no surveillance.

Just as Li Ai was about to break the barrier himself, Shirley stopped him.

"Leave these two security guards to me. You can save your energy to deal with the enemies behind you."

After saying that, Shirley holstered the triple-shot rifle in her back pocket, darted out of the shadows, and kicked the two security guards to the ground before they could even issue a warning.

After doing all this, Shirley turned around and made a 'safe passage' gesture to Li Ai, who then stepped out of the shadows.

"You're really good at this," Li Ai said, praising him as she unlocked the door.

Hearing this, Shirley tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and smiled helplessly, "The rigorous training almost killed me."

For Sherry, who possesses superhuman healing abilities, to say something like that, the amount of training she underwent in the past must have been considerable.

"Remember to ask your supervisor to issue you a sick leave slip when you get back," Li Ai said, trying to change the subject as she unlocked the door.

“It’s okay, it’s all in the past. Working for Leon, even on a mission like this one that doesn’t get reimbursed, makes me happy.” Shirley smiled, but mentioning Leon reminded her of something else.

"Speaking of which, do you know what happened to Leon? I have a feeling that he's not just relying on his equipment anymore..."

"Because he was injected with the enhancement serum." Li Ai directly told Shirley about Leon's situation.

Upon hearing that it was 'serum' rather than some kind of biochemical virus, Shirley immediately felt relieved.

"The same serum as Captain America? Do you know where that serum came from?"

“Because I made that serum.” Li Ai’s simple words made Shirley pause slightly.

"You can do this?" Shirley asked incredulously. "How can you guarantee a success after the injection?"

"Because my ability allows me to adjust the serum using a large amount of data without harming anyone," Li Ai said as she walked forward.

"Moreover, I'm not considering mass-producing enhanced serum; each vial of serum is essentially custom-made."

"So that's how it is..."

As she spoke, Shirley thought of the unrepaired battlefield remnants in Washington, and a sense of unease about the future arose in her heart. After a few seconds of silence, she took a deep breath and tentatively asked:

"Could you make me a vial of enhanced serum? I can provide all the necessary samples."

Do they have samples with G virus antibodies? For Li Ai, there was no need to refuse, but he needed to make some things clear.

"Sure, but I have to make it clear to you beforehand that the process of enhancing the serum takes quite a while."

"no problem."

As they talked, the two explored deeper into the room and soon discovered a room specifically used to imprison experimental subjects. The people here were all injected with large amounts of sedatives and would only be taken away when live experiments were needed.

“The country’s rebels, foreign tourists… and Svetlana’s political enemies?” Li Ai’s gaze swept quickly over the people in the cell.

At this moment, Shirley reached out to stop Li Ai again, reminding her, "Be careful, there are surveillance cameras there."

“Having electronic equipment actually makes it easier for us to collect evidence.” Li Ai ordered a sensor to crawl into the blind spot of the surveillance camera.

As a 'Hack Successful' notification popped up on the lens, Li Ai pressed her glasses and said:

"Asurada, it's your turn to step up."

Through the camera entrance, Aslarda gained access to the base's local area network, but it also issued a warning.

"This local area network has strict controls on file access. Even accessing just one byte will trigger an alarm. Do you want to continue the task?"

“Are there any other cells holding the victims?” Li Ai asked.

“This is the only place,” Asrada replied quickly.

"Okay, copy down all the evidence they have of researching biological weapons."

After giving the order, Li Ai took out the Surge Capsule, and a blue current of energy carried the innocent prisoners away from the cell.

At the same time, Asrada began copying the entire contents of the base's core database at maximum speed, with each piece of information packaged into an encrypted data stream and continuously transmitted back to the host.

This action immediately triggered the base's security system, and the entire base instantly entered a state of high alert, with piercing alarms echoing in the ears of every technician and soldier.

"Network intrusion? How is that possible? We're using a local area network; we're not connected to the outside world!"

A sweating tech manager frantically pounded on his keyboard, trying to track down the intruder, but Aslarda was no match for him.

And they will face something even more terrifying.

"Wait a minute, isn't the data recording for the Speed ​​Tyrant still incomplete?" A technician glanced back at the hibernation pod that was being emptied of nutrient solution and immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Oh no! It can't distinguish us from the intruders yet!"

Chapter 137 This can only be considered a family trip

Meanwhile, in the presidential palace's reception room, Svetlana is meeting with BSAA investigator Ada Wong.

The two sat facing each other at a coffee table, and staff members in suits poured tea for them.

As the finest black tea was poured into a white porcelain teacup inlaid with gold thread, President Svetlana spoke first to the BSAA investigators:

"I can guarantee that the official army has not used biological or chemical weapons. The East Slavic country has always abided by international regulations. As president, I cannot allow my country to be put in danger."

“I think it’s better to look at the evidence, Ms. Svetlana.”

Ida was dressed in a black and red striped women's suit, with red-rimmed glasses on her face, exuding the air of an office worker, but her presence was in no way inferior to that of the Iron Lady president in front of her.

"All we can find in this country are shell casings."

Svetlana picked up the gold-inlaid white porcelain teacup and took a small sip, as if to tell the BSAA investigators that the tea was not poisoned.

Suddenly, a message popped up on Ida's glasses that only she could see.

[Evidence obtained, can withdraw now.]

Upon seeing the message from Li Ai, Ada smiled slightly and said calmly, "You have a great sense of humor, President Svetlana."

“Unfortunately, this country needs me more than the stage,” Svetlana said with righteous indignation.

Suddenly, a tremor ran beneath their feet. The black tea in the gold-inlaid white porcelain teacup rippled and bounced back and forth between the bottom and the saucer. The surrounding furniture and furnishings also began to shake.

Ada believed this might be an aftereffect of Li Ai's battle against biological weapons underground, and asked directly:

"I remember that your country's geographical location means that earthquakes are rare,"

Although the natural earthquake intensity in East Slavic countries does not exceed level four, the presidential palace can be considered the face of the country, and it was naturally designed with strong earthquakes in mind during its construction.

If even the Presidential Palace on the ground felt a noticeable tremor, what exactly was happening underground?

Svetlana remained calm. She rose from her chair, smoothed the wrinkles in her skirt, and looked up at Ida, saying calmly:

"It seems I must excuse myself, Madam Investigator. There are places in this country that need me more right now."

“But I think you’d be better off staying here and watching what happens next,” Ada said, picking up her teacup while observing Svetlana’s expression.

Upon hearing this, Svetlana's expression changed slightly; she was certain that the sudden 'earthquake' was related to this BSAA investigator.

The staff member next to him noticed something was wrong and reached for his lower back, intending to draw his gun and assassinate Ada.

But Ada had already noticed the staff member's subtle movements, and with a flick of her wrist, the red tea was splashed onto the staff member's face.

In the chaos, Ada struck first, disarming the staff member in one move and then striking him on the head with an elbow, knocking him unconscious on the spot.

As Svetlana watched a strong man being dealt with so easily, she silently connected the dots of the recent strange events in her mind. Her eyes narrowed, her muscles tensed, and she prepared for battle at any moment.

"A super soldier who can handle several Lickers, a sudden earthquake, a highly skilled BSAA investigator... no, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"To be precise, this can only be considered a family trip," Ada joked as she shifted her position, trying to block Svetlana's escape route.

Svetlana saw through Ada's intentions, but she didn't understand Ada's true purpose in coming to the East Slavic country. She clenched her fists slightly and asked, "You should know that I used to be a special forces instructor, right?"

"know."

"Did you know I'm still a special forces instructor?"

Before she could finish speaking, Svetlana made the first move. Wearing five-centimeter high heels, she moved with incredible speed. Her hand-sewn skirt did not hinder her agility. In an instant, she was close to Ida. She lowered her shoulders, twisted her waist, and bent her arm into an acute angle. Her elbow, sharp as a blade, struck Ida's temple.

Seeing this, Ada grabbed Svetlana's wrist, attempting to break her arm with a grappling move.

Svetlana saw through Ida's intention. She quickly adjusted her center of gravity, turned around in the direction of Ida's force, escaped the predicament, and then spun around to try to turn the tide with a roundhouse kick.

But Ada stepped back in time to dodge the spinning kick, and Svetlana then threw two consecutive hooks.

Ida dodged to the side, her right hand already clasped together like a knife, her fingertips taut, making a faint whistling sound as it sliced ​​through the air.

Svetlana managed to lean back and dodge, but her clothes were still torn by the chop.

"Super Soldier?"

Svetlana felt that Ada's reflexes were not something that could be achieved through training. Having seen super soldiers before and having one under her command, she was certain that Ada was the same kind of being.

“You’re half right,” Ida said.

Super soldiers have physical abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people, making it completely impossible to win through hand-to-hand combat. With this in mind, Svetlana smashed the display shelf behind her and took out a combat dagger as a souvenir.

Faced with the seemingly invincible super soldiers, Svetlana wielded her combat dagger with incredible agility, striking different targets with each attack, seemingly to conceal her true intentions.

But as the tremors beneath her feet intensified, Ada knew she couldn't continue entangled with the female president. With bullet time activated, Svetlana's sword-wielding trajectory became clearly visible.

Ada weaved through the blade's trajectory, meeting Svetlana's bewildered gaze, and knocked the witness unconscious with a chop to the neck.

After resolving the matter, Ada picked up the briefcase she had brought into the living room. She turned the handle, and the briefcase cracked open, turning into pieces of armor that attached to Ada's body.

As the armor rapidly attached, Ada's women's suit flashed red light and quickly transformed into her basic combat uniform.

The basic combat uniforms don't differ much in appearance; they are both black, but the lines have been modified to suit male and female genders.

Because the suitcase is not large, the enhanced armor 2.0 is much lighter. The black and gold lightweight armor fits perfectly on the slim-fit basic combat suit, which perfectly matches Ada's agile style.

The Scarborough Fair armor was stored in the clips on her limbs for easy access by Ada. Information flashed inside the fully covered helmet with its soft curves. After the simple auxiliary system planned an escape route for her, Ada carried Svetlana away from the presidential palace.

Boom—

After Ada left the presidential palace carrying the important witness, the building behind her suddenly exploded from the inside out, flames shot into the sky, and the ground rose half a meter high.

At that moment, a two-meter-tall figure passed through the sea of ​​fire, its emotionless eyes scanning back and forth.

Chapter 138 The Speedy Tyrant

Looking at the tall figure searching for life in the sea of ​​fire, Ada now understood what was going on.

"Playing with fire will only get you burned," Ada said with a sneer, her tone carrying a sense of expected expectation.

But at that moment, the Speed ​​Tyrant in the sea of ​​fire also noticed Ada's presence, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared before Ada's eyes.

Realizing something was wrong, Ada activated bullet time again, only to see the Speed ​​Tyrant standing beside her, ready to throw a punch.

Ada quickly rolled over to dodge, and with a flick of her wrist, both guns fell into her hands.

The speed tyrant's plan failed; it only smashed one brick wall to pieces, and some rubble covered the unconscious Svetlana.

“There are enemies here that only you can defeat.” Ada sent Li Ai a message without hesitation.

The Speed ​​Tyrant is so fast that Ada has to maintain bullet time to dodge its attacks.

Ada, who kept bullet time active, dodged between the empty houses, barely managing to avoid a few punches.

However, bullet time is a superpower that consumes a lot of physical and mental energy, and Ada was soon panting heavily.

"Looks like we'll have to rely on the armor's energy absorption." In front of Ada was the Speed ​​Tyrant's raised right fist, the shadow cast by the punch enveloping her entirely.

Just as Ada decided to believe in the armor's capabilities, a golden bolt of lightning streaked across the sky.

In an instant, the Speed ​​Tyrant's right fist was sliced ​​off by a light blade formed from high-density golden lightning. Immediately afterward, Ada heard a familiar voice.

【Good Morning! I?Na?Zu?Ma! Rider! Z?Z?Z! Plasma! 】

Golden lightning outlined Li Ai's figure. He stood in front of Ada and the Speed ​​Tyrant, gazing at the biological weapon that had not been instantly killed.

Red light flashed at the severed arm of the Speed ​​Tyrant, and in the blink of an eye, a fully functional forearm regenerated. Although it lacked subcutaneous armor, it still possessed the terrifying power to shatter alloy walls.

"You go first," Li Ai said, her back to Ida.

"Ah."
