Revy, however, was very happy to see this scene and secretly smiled with her lips pursed.
"Aiden, to be honest, if the monster you mentioned only has this level of strength, then the previous worry was completely unnecessary." Maybe because the atmosphere felt a bit dull, Dutch thought for a moment and spoke up.
"Of course, it's not just this bit of strength." Aiden lit a cigarette and said, "Lickers are one of the lowest-grade B.O.W.s, just a bit stronger than those zombies transformed from humans. There are many things stronger than them."
"Can you talk about what else there is? Hmm, like the tyrant or Nemesis you mentioned earlier." Dutch asked.
"They are a type of powerful organic biological weapon, smarter than Lickers, look more human-like, and some of them even use weapons, like rocket launchers and such."
"Can use rocket launchers? Then I really want to see it." Revy interrupted.
"Better not see it." Aiden shook his head forcefully. "I don't want to meet them."
As he was speaking, a loud booming sound suddenly rang out outside the store.
The few resting people immediately stood up and leaned against the wall to look outside.
It was a squad of three EO armored vehicles, followed by some soldiers, moving toward the inner city.
"Speaking of which, who exactly are they?" After they passed by, Revy asked.
"EO's mercenaries," Aiden said. "The guys who attacked us last time at the Yellow Flag Bar."
"It's them, huh? What are they doing here? Are they suddenly feeling kind and planning to save the residents here?" Revy asked again.
"How could that be? They came specifically for your Black Lagoon Company. After all, they suffered losses last time and lost so many people."
"But their luck wasn't very good. As soon as they entered, they got wiped out by B.O.W.s. But it looks like their grudge is strong, coming back and regrouping to enter the city so quickly." Aiden said.
"Well, that's perfect. Let them fight those monsters. Best case scenario, both sides get badly hurt." Revy said excitedly.
"That's a bit difficult." Aiden shook his head. "They have armored vehicles. Ordinary B.O.W.s aren't their match, unless…"
He hadn't finished speaking when an accident happened.
The first armored vehicle that had just come out of the street entrance was suddenly hit by a rocket fired from who knows where, instantly turning into a ball of fire.
The remaining armored vehicles hurriedly backed up, then cooperated with the nearby soldiers and set up a defensive formation.
"Where did the rocket come from?" one of the armored vehicle commanders shouted over the comms.
"Didn't see clearly." Another commander replied. They didn't have onboard night vision, so they only saw a flash of light.
"Send the infantry to check. Find their position, then guide the vehicle-mounted cannon to destroy them." The first commander shouted.
After that, a few infantry soldiers left the main group and slowly moved forward, but they had only gone halfway when another rocket flew over and took out another armored vehicle.
This time, everyone saw clearly. It was from the second-floor window of a three-story building not far away.
The only remaining armored vehicle immediately moved its turret, aimed in that direction, and its 30mm cannon roared to life.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
After a round of dull cannon fire, the outer wall of the building's second floor was turned completely to dust.
"Did we get them?" The remaining vehicle's commander muttered, "Under this firepower, no creature could survive, right?"
But right after he said that, a third rocket was fired, still from the same spot.
Watching the rocket streak over with a long tail of flames, the commander immediately shouted, "Fall back!"
But it was too late. The last armored vehicle also turned into a fireball. Seeing this, the EO mercenaries instinctively wanted to retreat, but just then, a furious roar was heard.
Then, they saw a huge figure leap down from the second floor.
"Revy, now you can witness it." Seeing the massive figure carrying a rocket launcher, Aiden said helplessly.
The Nemesis has arrived!
A huge figure stepped through smoke and fire, revealed under the streetlights and flames to everyone.
A thick, tight military coat, strange devices wrapped around its body, probably to suppress parasites, and a custom rocket launcher on its arm.
It was the messenger of a god. And its appearance brought overwhelming pressure.
"Damn, this monster can use weapons."
The EO mercenaries who hadn't had time to retreat all instinctively backed away after seeing the terrifying monster.
At this moment, a sergeant-like mercenary shouted, "If we keep running, EO will have no honor left. Brothers, let's kill it!"
Actually, this was the best choice, because these mercenaries were also carrying heavy weapons like RPGs.
And B.O.W.s have no way to defend against RPGs and such. If they really fought, it might not be a loss.
Maybe they were truly inspired by that shout, or maybe the pressure from the Nemesis was too strong. One EO mercenary carrying an RPG shouted and pulled the trigger.
Whoosh!
The rocket flew toward the Nemesis.
However, they were too close. When the rocket reached the Nemesis, the ignition had just started. It was caught by the monster's free hand, aimed at the sky, and released. The rocket shot upward like a firework.
Seeing such a shocking sight, the EO mercenaries lost all their hard-earned courage again. They turned and ran.
But how could they outrun the Nemesis? It caught up easily and slaughtered them like chickens.
Seeing the Nemesis's terrifying speed of killing, Dutch broke into a cold sweat. He looked at Aiden and asked, "Honestly, I thought the monster you talked about was only a bit stronger than those Licker things, but now it looks way too strong. So, Aiden, what do we do now?"
He had always been cautious. If it weren't because Roanapur was a good place for him to make money, he'd have left long ago.
"What else can we do?" Aiden tightened the rifle strap to secure it to his body, then took the shotgun from his back and said, "Of course we strike first while those EO mercenaries are still alive, and work with them to take this guy down."
As he said this, he raised his gun and rushed out, firing at the back of the Nemesis's head as it roared while grabbing a mercenary.
His shotgun was loaded with solid slugs, very powerful. That shot directly blasted a hole in the Nemesis's head, sending blood and bits of flesh flying.
The wounded Nemesis howled, threw away the mercenary in its hand, turned around, and looked to see which fool had shot it. But when it saw Aiden, sealed memories and commands instantly flooded its mind.
"S.T.A.R.S." it roared, then charged at Aiden with big strides.
To be honest, Aiden was stunned for a moment when he heard this, since this wasn't Raccoon City, and there was no S.T.A.R.S. here. Then he noticed that this Nemesis looked familiar, and he also realized, the thing wrapped around it might not be parasite-suppressing devices, but metallic tentacles.
'Could it be the Nemesis from Raccoon City?' A bizarre thought popped into his mind, but was immediately interrupted.
"Get out of the way, Aiden!" Revy shouted, raising her gun and firing at the Nemesis.
Roberta and Dutch also opened fire, along with the EO mercenaries who had regained their senses, but the Nemesis completely ignored them and kept charging straight at Aiden.
Aiden had no choice but to retreat while continuing to shoot.
He really wanted to know how this second-form-normalized Nemesis had been recovered by the Umbrella Corporation, but clearly now wasn't the time to think.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Aiden emptied all the rounds in his shotgun, but facing the second-form Nemesis, they barely had any effect. He tossed the shotgun aside, drew his dual pistols, and continued firing as he retreated.
But then the Nemesis suddenly raised the rocket launcher in its other hand and aimed at Aiden.
Whoosh!
The rocket fired.
Aiden didn't have the Nemesis's insane physical strength or crazy reflexes, he obviously couldn't catch a rocket. Seeing the rocket flying at him, he broke out in cold sweat, realizing he couldn't dodge in time.
But at that moment, he suddenly remembered something. Then, his heart started pounding faster, his blood rushed, and some unknown hormone surged through his body.
'Adrenaline.'
He activated the system-rewarded skill.
In an instant, a powerful force different from the gene lock but just as strong surged through him. Everything around him slowed down.
Swish!
Aiden moved. Just as the rocket was about to hit, he bent backward hard into a limbo move, then sprang up, raised both guns, and fired at the Nemesis's head.
BOOM!
The rocket exploded just as Aiden emptied both magazines, but under the hormone's intense effect, he became excited. After instantly reloading, instead of retreating, he rushed toward the Nemesis, sticking close and firing around it.
"What's going on with him?" Revy asked Roberta, confused as she watched Aiden jump around the Nemesis.
Roberta didn't know either. She only knew her RPK was useless against this monster, so she switched to the RG6 light grenade launcher Aiden had given her. She opened the chamber, checked the grenades inside, closed it, and aimed at the Nemesis.
However, with Aiden so close to the monster, Roberta had no chance to fire. So she shouted, "Aiden, move aside!"
Although adrenaline made Aiden extremely excited, thankfully he hadn't lost his mind. Hearing Roberta's voice, he quickly leapt to the side, then pulled out a defensive grenade from the system space and threw it at the Nemesis's feet.
BOOM!
The shrapnel grenade tore up the Nemesis, covering it in wounds, but still didn't deal much damage. Seeing Aiden run off, the Nemesis roared, and the metallic tentacles wrapped around it started wriggling. Then several of them shot out, aiming for Aiden.
At that moment, several heavy firing sounds rang out.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Several high-explosive grenades were launched under the chamber pressure of the light grenade launcher, landing on the body of the Tyrant.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
A series of explosions rang out
