After everything was settled, everyone began to stand guard around the Red Queen’s main computer to prevent any unexpected situations.
“Alright, if I press this button this time, she won’t be able to close it again. Just wait to be burned!”
If he wanted to ask the Red Queen, he naturally had to have a bargaining chip.
So Chad had made some preparations. If the Red Queen was out of control, they could choose to destroy her.
“Buzz!”
As the system restarted, a red light flashed in front of everyone.
The Red Queen’s figure flashed and disappeared, startling everyone.
“Starting the power might burn the circuit board,” Chad explained.
“Ah! So you’re here. The things I’m collecting are beyond my control.”
Although the Red Queen’s projection did not succeed, her voice came through the loudspeaker.
Clearly, she had been successfully activated.
The Red Queen seemed to still have emotions. As soon as she appeared, she began to mock him.
‘I told you long ago not to close her. Now, you’re happy!’
“Give me that control button now. I want to burn your ass.”
Seeing a computer mocking them, Rayne was the first to lose his temper. He wanted to snatch the control button and burn the gloating computer.
The others hurried to hold Rayne back.
“Didn’t I warn you?”
The Red Queen expressed her innocence. She had warned them from the beginning but they were disobedient and insisted on shutting her down. Now that the situation had spiraled out of control, it was not her fault!
“What is this place for?” Rayne was the first to ask.
“Research and development of the virus.” said the Red Queen, who did not hide anything.
“What is the T-Virus!?”
Matt’s purpose here was to find evidence of the umbrella company’s illegal research of the virus. He wanted to understand what the T-Virus was.
Why did it turn those people into walking corpses?
“The T-Virus is a huge breakthrough in pharmaceutical science. It can also become an expensive military weapon.” the Red Queen explained.
The T-Virus was first studied to treat terminal illnesses and benefit humans.
However, the sharper the sword, the more two-sided it was.
It could be used to save people or kill people.
Some people used it to treat illnesses, while others used it to kill.
“Then what has this got to do with those things outside?”
Chad looked puzzled. Didn’t they say that this virus was used to treat diseases? Why did it create a bunch of human-eating monsters?
“Even if humans are dead, their bodies are still alive. Their hair and nails are growing, and their cells are metabolizing.”
“And the brain still retains a small amount of electrical charge until a few months later.”
“The T-Virus can produce huge vibrating waves to maintain cell growth and track the electrical pulse energy.”
“In other words, it can resurrect the dead,” continued the Red Queen.
“You call that resurrection?”
When Rayne heard the Red Queen’s explanation, he really wanted to kick the computer.
This thing created a group of human-eating monsters. It did not look like a revival.
“Not completely. They only have the simplest mobility and might have some memories. In theory, they don’t have any intelligence.”
“They are driven by the most basic nerve impulses and fundamental needs.”
“What do you mean?” Chad asked doubtfully.
“Eating.”
“Why did you kill everyone below?” Matt asked.
