CHAPTER 79: CHAPTER 79: WEAPONS FROM RESIDENT EVIL

The dark red blood slid from the man’s arm onto his face, soaking into his eye sockets.

Su Changxing said coldly, "I’m going to ask you some questions. If you don’t want to die painfully, you’d better not scream."

Sweat streamed down the man’s face as he nodded repeatedly, unable to endure the pain and fearing that Su Changxing would torture him further.

Su Changxing loosened his grip slightly and said, "I’m going to ask you some questions, and you’d better not hesitate at all. What’s your name?"

The man took a deep breath, unable to breathe as Su Changxing covered his mouth, and said, "Deng Yin River."

Su Changxing continued, "Gender."

The man paused for a moment and said, "Male."

"Do you have a wife?"

"Huh?"

Su Changxing gave him a stern look, "Answer quickly."

"No, I was single even before the apocalypse."

"Are you an employee of Shield Company?"

"Yes."

"Are all of you employees of Shield Company?"

"Not all of us."

"How many of you are there?"

"More than twenty people."

"What’s your position?"

The man looked puzzled, "What?"

Su Changxing stared into the man’s eyes, feeling like he wasn’t lying, and asked again, "What’s your superpower?"

The man hesitated for a moment and said, "I have no ability; I’m a pseudo power user. My body is enhanced, but I haven’t gained any special strength."

Su Changxing looked at him and asked, "Do you know why Shield Company wants to establish the Energy Station?"

The man immediately said, "To benefit society and achieve social transformation. But as a low-level employee of Shield Company, I guess the true reason isn’t this, but I don’t know the specifics."

The man speculated that Su Changxing likely wasn’t from another world; he knew too much about these things, probably a person from Jackal.

Jackal had gone crazy, starting to attack them for some unfounded secrets.

Su Changxing frowned and continued, "Do you know how the Energy Station is made?"

"I don’t know."

"Then do you know how to delay the infection time?"

"Eh, I don’t know."

Su Changxing looked at him speechlessly, "Why do you know nothing at all? Are you even from this world?"

What kind of people are these? Clearly, the questions you’re asking are too tricky, right?

The man was very scared, daring not to express his anger, and said, "Please don’t kill me. I know someone who knows about this as long as you spare me."

Su Changxing’s expression remained unchanged, and he nodded, "Hmm, tell me."

"The Lady of the House should know."

"Hmm?"

The man whispered, "That’s the CEO of Shield Company in Anxing City, used to be."

Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, "Then why do you call her the Lady of the House? Is the Saint Heir referring to that monster in the sewer?"

The man’s face changed, his emotions becoming inexplicably excited. He glanced at the door and said, "She’s just a pervert. If it weren’t for her, more of us could have survived..."

As the man spoke halfway, his eyes rolled back, and he suddenly died, his life coming to an abrupt end.

Scared to death?

No, that’s not right.

Su Changxing confirmed that he had no fatal wounds, and it wasn’t possible for him to die suddenly without warning. It was unscientific.

Was it that Lady of the House?

Had she already sensed my presence?

Su Changxing guessed that these people were most likely controlled by the so-called Lady of the House in some way.

But was the man’s death voluntary or forced?

Su Changxing took a deep breath, knowing that this place was likely not safe anymore.

He glanced at his phone, 7:40.

The Mysterious Shop had been refreshed.

Su Changxing showed a surprised expression; this time, it offered weapons of precious quality.

But can this be used?

[LEMI Semi-Automatic Pistol (Precious), 50% off, 1000 points]

[LEMI Semi-Automatic Pistol: Damage 100, Attack Speed 0.45

A weapon from the Resident Evil world, an ordinary, worn-out pistol that became extraordinary due to its former owner, Ethan.

Trait: +50% damage to zombie-type creatures, -20% damage to other creatures.

Note: This gun never wears out.]

Su Changxing had envisioned various scenarios for this shop refresh but hadn’t considered firearms.

"So can this pistol be used? Since the discount shop offers it, it should be usable, right?"

Without much hesitation, Su Changxing spent 1000 points to exchange for the LEMI Semi-Automatic Pistol. With a flash of white light, a silver pistol with a doll pendant and wrapped with tattered cloth on its grip appeared in his hand.

This pistol gave an indescribable feeling, seeming ordinary yet feeling special.

[Total Points: 3762]

Scrolling through the shop’s ammo section, he found available handgun bullets.

[Handgun Bullets (Quantity 50), 20 points.]

[Handgun Bullets: Ordinary handgun bullets, usable in any situation.]

Su Changxing exchanged for seven bullets, loading them one by one into the magazine, engaging the safety, and placing the gun in his pocket.

This handgun’s magazine capacity is also seven rounds, considered a relatively low-capacity pistol.

With this gun, Su Changxing instantly felt much more confident; no matter what demons or ghosts come, a spray of bullets would at least cripple them if not kill them.

Fear often stems from insufficient firepower.

Su Changxing then looked at the other items; the food was still self-heating rice, only the side dish had changed to scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Food

[Self-Heating Rice (Quantity 10), 40% off, 20 points

1L Bottled Water (Quantity 10), 50% off, 1 point]

Weapons

[Steel Saber (Quantity 5), 50% off, 30 points

Longsword (Quantity 5), 50% off, 30 points

Iron Mallet (Quantity 5), 50% off, 30 points]

The weapons section had an additional item, the Iron Mallet.

Equipment

[Flashbang (Quantity 5), 50% off, 300 points]

[LEMI Semi-Automatic Pistol High-Capacity Magazine (Quantity 2), 50% off, 500 points]

[Flashbang: Emits strong light, can temporarily blind people, can be used for illumination.]

[LEMI Semi-Automatic Pistol High-Capacity Magazine: Holds fifteen rounds.]

High-capacity magazine?

"And this kind of tricky maneuver? Selling guns and accessories separately. Although it’s a bit expensive, it’s still necessary. A fifteen-round high-capacity magazine effectively provides double firepower, and extra magazines can speed up reloading. In a fight, it’s impossible to reload one bullet at a time."

Su Changxing exchanged for two LEMI Semi-Automatic Pistol High-Capacity Magazines and also exchanged for thirty bullets to fill the two magazines, placing the loaded magazines in his pocket.

Su Changxing steadied himself, holding the Shadow Bow as he walked down the corridor. Taking the initiative to attack is always better than being passively beaten.

He was likely already discovered, so the best plan was to kill as many as possible before these survivors gathered.

After roughly searching this floor, Su Changxing found no one else; most of the rooms were already abandoned.
