Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2
Chapter 126 Gunsmith Rupert, Doctor Camden
The next day, at dawn.
With the orange light in the sky, the sun gradually rose into the sky, and the light returned to the earth.
Abandoned urban area, on the roof of the building.
In the middle of the roof, the second-stage Yuzu was lying on the ground, his back rising and falling gently, as if he was resting.
Li You sat on the ground leaning against him, his hunter suit splattered with dark blood. His various weapons, hand cannons, machetes, shotguns, sniper rifles, were scattered all over the ground, thrown left and right.
The long-handled Primal Spear was nailed to a concrete pillar beside it, and two evolved Night Demons were pierced by the gun body.
A little further away from Li You and Yuzu, the bodies of the Night Demons piled up into a small hill.
Inside the building, all the Night Demons were here.
Li You leaned on Yuzu and fell asleep.
Last night, he and Yuzu were guarding the roof of the building and killing all the Night Demons that kept emerging below.
Because this building was their nest, the Night Demons did not retreat, but fought until the last Night Demon fell.
But although they were determined to defend the nest, Li You didn't want to fight them.
Originally, after killing the night hunter Hassan and the night demon Les last night, Li You planned to take their bodies and retreat directly.
But who knew that when Li You was about to ask Yuzu to leave together, his eyes suddenly turned blood red, and the bloodthirsty desire that had been suppressed surged again!
And this time the desire was so strong that it was like a natural disaster tsunami, easily drowning Li You's consciousness.
So, Li You, with red eyes, rode on Yuzu and rushed towards the night demons again.
Until the last two night demons were pierced and nailed to death by the javelin he threw with all his strength, the bloodthirsty desire seemed to be finally satisfied and slowly receded.
But before this desire completely subsided, Li You suddenly became dazed, and the world around him suddenly flickered, and then continued to distort, and finally became a completely different appearance in front of him.
When Li You raised his head from the trance, he found that he was already standing in the passage of a cave.
He seemed to have recovered, but when he tried to start the system, there was no response, and all the weapons disappeared.
"Where is this...?"
Li You felt that the scene in front of him was somewhat familiar. He walked forward a few steps, and the passage suddenly opened up. Behind him was a wide cave, which was dozens of meters high.
In the center of the cave, there was a sea of blood and corpses.
Li You thought that they were human corpses, but when he looked closely, he found that most of them were night demons, and a few with human appearance were obviously infected.
Then, Li You looked up and saw a figure wrapped in dark bandages sitting in the center of the mountain of corpses.
Li You hesitated for a moment and decided to go over and take a look.
But suddenly, the figure turned back and looked at him.
Li You only saw the man's face wrapped in bandages, and the eyes emitting light blue light, and then he heard him let out a piercing scream!
"Wra——!!"
Li You subconsciously covered his ears, but he couldn't stop the penetrating power of the scream, and the whole person was stunned without any resistance.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself still on the roof.
The effect of Hunter Frenzy also disappeared.
Li You fell to the ground on the spot and retched violently.
He felt extremely empty inside, and his entire body was drained of all his physical strength. He hadn't felt this way for a long time.
He didn't have time to think about what he had just seen. He struggled to lean on Yuzu, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Yuzu was busy preying on the evolved night demons on the ground, but when he saw Li You sleeping against him, he immediately stopped moving.
He gently lay down and adjusted Li You's position with his tentacles to make him sleep more comfortably.
Then, Yuzu lay there like that, and kept rolling up the night demon corpse with his tentacles, eating it in small bites.
Li You woke up slowly until the sun shone on his face and the "beeping" sound of the radio in his ears kept making noises.
"Hey-ah!"
He yawned, still feeling a little tired.
Li You picked up the radio first. It was Karim calling.
"…Hello?"
"Boss! You're fine! That's great!"
Karim's excited voice, mixed with cheers from the other end, suddenly woke up Li You, who was still a little sleepy.
He twitched his mouth and said, "What can I do? I was just too tired from killing the Night Demon last night, so I took a nap. I'll be back soon."
After hanging up the call, Li You stood up and moved around briefly. After realizing that it was Yuzu who had been guarding him, Li You patted him and said, "Thank you."
Yuzu growled in response.
Then, Li You looked at himself first.
The system was operating normally, the five senses were normal, there was no sign of loss of control, and there was nothing different about his body from before.
Except for being still tired, he was in good condition.
"What I saw before should not be an illusion..."
Li You pondered for a moment, then seemed to think of something and called up the description of the hunter suit.
[Hunter Suit]
[Suit Features: Hunter Frenzy. It can be used once every 24 hours. After activation, it will slightly increase weapon damage and movement speed, but it will stimulate the wearer's anger, irritability, bloodthirstiness and other emotions, and there is a small chance that the wearer will see things that were originally invisible. 】
"There is a small chance that you will see things that were originally invisible..."
Li You frowned slightly, "It is indeed very consistent with the game style of Bloodborne, but the first time I used this ability, it triggered this negative effect?"
"My face is too dark, isn't it? Is this the first time I use fixed skills?"
But as he spoke, Li You saw the primitive gun stuck on one side.
Li You: "Fuck."
Why did you forget this thing? This gun will affect your luck!
Li You's mouth twitched. It seemed that the Hunter's Frenzy special effect really couldn't be turned on too often in the future.
Otherwise, with the primitive gun in hand, he was afraid that once he fired it, his spiritual vision would increase once, and every time he fired it, it would increase once. If he continued like this, it would only take a few times, and he would probably be able to drink tea and chat face to face with the Bloodborne Spider.
After making up his mind, Li You began to clean up the scene.
As soon as he picked up the Hand Cannon X on the ground, he heard Yuzu yelling at him.
Li You immediately understood what Yuzi meant: "You want to change back? Okay, I'll let you change now."
Li You immediately called up the system and selected the function to return Yuzi to one stage.
Yuzi was suddenly shaken, and without caring about anything else, she lay down on the spot, and then the muscles all over her body began to emit high heat, and even wisps of heat rose up.
The flesh and blood around him continued to rupture, but not much blood spattered out, but mostly tissue fluid that looked like water. During this process, Yuzu's size continued to shrink.
After a full minute, Yuzu pushed aside the tissue covering her that looked like peeling off skin and walked out.
He regained his human form.
At the same time, the status in the companion section has also been updated.
The above shows that Yuzi entered a short-lived state of weakness that lasted for 24 hours, during which her physical fitness was reduced to half of normal.
Then the phased degradation function also went into cooling down, which lasted for a full week.
However, the stage evolution function can still be used. If necessary, Li You can let Yuzi enter the second stage again immediately.
It's just conceivable that after entering the second stage in a weak state, Yuzu will either be unable to exert any strength at all, or she will lose control and run away.
So Li You would definitely not do this. He turned off the system panel and said to Yuzi, "Thank you for your hard work."
At this time, Li You had collected all the weapons and equipment scattered on the floor, and took out Yuzi's military coat from the companion section, intending to throw it to him.
But when Li You saw Yuzi's appearance up close, he couldn't help but say "Eh".
"Your appearance... seems to have changed a bit?"
In response, Yuzu just tilted her head.
But Li You was sure that he was not dazzled. He came to Yuzi, made Yuzi kneel on the ground, and observed carefully.
Then he noticed that Yuzi's skin had changed slightly.
Yuzu's body was originally thick orange or even dark brown skin. This skin was formed on the basis of the tyrant's body, and then the Nemesis Alpha parasite in the body continuously secreted a special substance and combined with the skin.
This skin is also the key to the Nemesis Tyrant's defense being far superior to that of ordinary Tyrants, allowing them to even withstand rocket launchers.
But at this moment, Li You discovered that the skin of Yuzi was slightly pale among the orange and dark brown.
The color was somewhat like weathered marble, but closer to the pale color of Night Demon's skin.
"Is this...absorbing the changes caused by the Harlan virus?"
Li You thought.
If you look more closely, you can see that Yuzu's face has changed a bit.
Originally, except for his two eyes, his overall face was basically the same as the biochemical triple version of the tracker.
At this time, Yuzi's face was also vaguely white, and skin began to grow on the exposed flesh and blood of his lower jaw.
Li You didn't know whether his changes were good or bad, so he could only ask Yuzi: "How do you feel?"
Yuzi understood his question and let out a loud roar that made Li You's ears buzz to express that she was fine. Li You shook his head, feeling a little helpless at Yuzi's answer. However, no negative effects have been found so far. For example, there is no sign that grapefruit is afraid of ultraviolet rays.
So Li You decided to put the matter aside for now, and after telling Yuzi to tell him immediately if he felt something was wrong, Li You gave Yuzi his military coat and asked him to put it on himself.
Later, Li You handed over to him the remains of Brother Rice, who had finally dug them out from the corpse pile of Night Demon.
"Let's go back, they should be waiting in a hurry."
Although Yuzu's all attributes have been temporarily halved, her basic abilities are not affected. So he carried Brother Rice's body behind his back, grabbed Li You, and jumped off the edge of the roof!
"Oh——huh!!"
Amid Li You's excited shouts, Yuzi swung his tentacles, walked through the building in the same posture as Good Neighbor Spider-Man, and rushed towards the old city.
At about half past nine, Li You returned to the radio station.
Everyone cheered to welcome him and Yuzu back, but they barely came up to hug them.
Li You was a little confused by their formation and didn't know what was going on. It wasn't until Karim came up and explained to him that their explanation to the ordinary members was that Li You and Yuzi went out last night and attacked the night devil's lair, and then they lured away the night devil group that besieged the radio station.
That's why everyone was so excited to see Li You and Yuzi come back unscathed.
Li You was somewhat amused and helpless about this, but it was true that he had forced back the Night Demons and saved everyone last night, so he would not clarify it. Karim handled it just right.
Li You was indeed relieved to leave these small matters to him.
So Li You convened the management again and told everyone that Rice and the attackers last night had been completely dealt with by him.
Everyone was overjoyed.
Li You left the next matter to Karim and Troy. Rice and his brothers were dead, and the Rice Gang had fallen apart, but some of the Rice Gang's bases were still in the old city, where some remnants were entrenched.
These remnants were all targets to be cleared.
So the next task for the Light Guard and the Tower was to take down the remaining bases of the Rice Gang and completely erase the last traces they left in Harlan.
These matters could be left to Cran and his group. Li You did not intend to participate. He had more important things to deal with.
After Li You announced the adjournment of the meeting, Troy immediately came over and said a few words to him.
"Oh?" Li You's eyes lit up, "Dr. Camden and old Mr. Rupert, are they awake?"
Troy nodded: "They all want to see you."
Li You said: "Okay, I also want to see them."
Li You went to find Rupert first.
Old man Rupert, with gray hair and heavy glasses, was still wearing the wizard hat and his dark plaid shirt, playing games with the children in the lobby on the third floor of the radio station.
When he saw Li You coming, he immediately clapped his hands to quiet the children, and then said to them:
"Children, look! Our heroic leader of the Knights is here!"
"It was him who defeated the evil demon king and his minions and rescued the wizards and children in distress. It was also his knights who delivered the magic potion that was stolen by the demon king and rescued Orya who was cursed by the devil."
"He is the hero of the kingdom and a leader loved by everyone! Children, go and thank him."
Hearing his words, the children immediately chirped and swarmed around, encircling Li You in the middle.
"Captain! Thank you!!"
"Captain, you defeated the demon king! So cool!"
"Can I join the Knights in the future, Captain?"
Faced with the children's enthusiasm, Li You did not act pretentiously, half-knelt on the ground, and communicated with them cordially.
He touched this and patted that, and it took a long time to satisfy all the children who came to pay tribute to the "hero".
As if seeing that Li You still had something to talk about, Rupert clapped his hands and said, "Okay, children, you have played enough with the Knight Commander. Now the wizard grandfather has something to talk to the Knight Commander, you go play by yourselves first."
The children were very obedient. After greeting the "Knight Commander" Li You with a slightly funny etiquette, they dispersed and went to play by themselves.
Rupert walked over and said to Li You, "I'm sorry, I asked you to help me deal with the children, but they are really grateful to you and want to meet you."
Li You smiled: "Don't worry, communicating with children is not a waste of time. Even the wizard stays with them all day, and I, the Knight Commander, should also set a good example for adults."
Rupert smiled bitterly: "Don't mind, I really don't want to leave a shadow in the children's hearts, so I lied to them that I am a wizard, you are the Knight Commander, and Les who has become a night demon is the devil."
"In this way, when they grow up, they may blur their childhood memories into one A fantasy story, rather than an indelible horror memory in my heart. "
Li You nodded: "I think what you have done is very admirable."
Rupert shook his head and sighed: "Unfortunately, this is all I can do. Let's not talk about this, I haven't formally thanked you yet."
"Mr. Li You, thank you for saving my life and the lives of the children. I can't repay you for everything you have done, so if you are willing, I still have a few skills in my old bones. As long as you have any orders, I will do my best!"
Before Li You answered, he heard the system prompt.
[Ding!]
[You have obtained the highest favor of Rupert, a master-level gunsmith.]
Li You's eyes lit up: "Sure enough!"
I knew Rupert's craftsmanship must be master-level!
But Li You has always been a little strange, why in the system classification, the level of "master" is above "master"?
It should usually be the other way around, right?
However, these details did not matter much, so Li You shook Rupert's hand and said, "Master Rupert, you are too polite. It is an honor for us to have you join us."
Next, Li You asked Rupert about his skills in detail, and then found that he was indeed better at modifying and adjusting firearms.
As for blacksmith skills, he was not proficient, and claimed that he only knew a rough idea.
Then Li You looked at his skill level in the intelligence section of the system.
[Rupert]
[Favorability: 99, Trust: 99. ]
[Relationship rating: I can't repay you for saving my life. ]
[Personal skills: Gunsmith-Master level; Knifesmith-Quasi-Master level (lack of breakthrough opportunity); Carpenter-Proficient level. ]
Li You: "..."
"Only know the rough idea", and then he was only one breakthrough opportunity lower than the knifesmith level of old man Alexei, who had made knives all his life.
It's been a long time since I saw such a high-level Versailles.
But anyway, Rupert's gunsmith skills are definitely top-notch, so Li You thought about it and handed over the guns he used most often to him, asking him to help maintain and adjust them.
Including the hand cannon X, the M3 shotgun, the riot suppressor, the Springfield sniper rifle, and the same grenade launcher as Claire that he had snatched from the soldiers of the Rice Gang before.
As for the prototype of the Samurai Blade with unlimited bullets, Li You certainly wouldn't take it out.
Rupert exclaimed repeatedly when he looked at Li You's pile of guns, saying that except for the grenade launcher that was in a shitty condition, all the other pieces were masterpieces.
So Rupert didn't hesitate to take all the guns away, took them to the workshop that the light guards had prepared for him temporarily, and said that he would contact Li You after he was finished.
Li You was very confident in Rupert's skills, so he simply greeted him, and Rupert responded casually, without even looking back, Li You left to find Camden.
Dr. Camden was a capable man with short hair and a beard. He looked younger than Rupert, probably less than fifty years old.
He was in the temporary infirmary on the other side. When Li You came in, he was holding a teacup and drinking hot water.
He was immediately startled when he saw Li You, and then he wanted to say something, but he choked himself and his beard was soaked.
"Cough cough-cough!!"
Li You said that there was no need to be so excited.
Unexpectedly, Dr. Camden jumped down and rushed to him, eagerly saying: "Are you Li You? Thank you for saving me! But can you answer me a question first, Hassan, where is Hassan? Did he run away?"
Li You was stunned by him and asked: "You said Hassan... Do you know that the identity of the Night Hunter is Hassan?"
Camden said: "He captured me so that I could find a way to stabilize his physical condition, of course I know! Tell me quickly, where is he?"
Li You said: "Hassan... has been solved by me. But I brought back his body, and also the body of Les who turned into a night demon."
Camden was also slightly stunned when he heard his words, but after learning that Li You brought back the body, he didn't care so much and said:
"That's fine! Can you give me his body? I think maybe through this body, I can find the key clues to the antidote!"
The antidote mentioned by Camden is naturally the serum that can cure the Harlan virus.
Li You had always hoped that the two doctors could make a breakthrough in the research of the antidote. He had previously sent the body of the Evolved Night Demon he had killed to Dr. Zere in the slums, hoping that it would help his research.
In the game, Li You certainly did not intend to let go of the special infected people, the fugitives, who were closely related to the development of the antidote. He had already arranged the task of capturing fugitives in the organization.
Unfortunately, because the difficulty was too high, it was difficult for others to complete it. Li You and Clan did not have time to catch them in person, so they were always short of samples.
But at this moment, Dr. Camden said that the body of the Night Hunter Hassan might contain the key to developing the antidote?
Li You seemed to have caught something, but he was not in a hurry. Instead, he said: "Dr. Camden, calm down a little. I will definitely give you the body of the Night Hunter. After all, you and Dr. Zere are the key to studying the antidote."
"But in the same way, I also have a few questions, and I hope you can answer them for me."
Dr. Camden was a little surprised: "Questions? What questions can I answer for you?"
Li You said: "It's about Hassan. In fact, you have already answered one just now."
Dr. Camden just mentioned that Hassan captured him in order to study ways to stabilize his physical condition.
So obviously, Dr. Camden should have conducted a detailed examination of Hassan's body and understood his condition.
So it happened that he could answer Li You's questions.
Camden looked at Li You, and then said: "So you want to ask about Hassan... Well, you tell me, I will tell you everything I know."
So Li You nodded and asked the first question:
"First of all, I want to know, how did Hassan become the Night Hunter?"
Thanks to "Reader 1453908414438531072" for the reward!
