Chapter 6 Branch

Chapter 6 · Branch Line

It was J.D. who was saved, but the Lord informed Kaplan. Something that had no reason to happen suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Yu at this moment. And the shock it brought to him was more shocking than knowing that Gu Hejun could actually become a sister!

How could it be! How could this happen! ?

The information about the Lord God that he knew... was it not reliable! ?

He stood there blankly, his mind full of confusion - J.D. thought he was scared, so he helped him sit down. Lane gave him a bottle of energy drink, and he just held it blankly, and then put it to his mouth.

He was thinking... fast and thinking quickly.

At the same time, at the main control center of the Flame Queen. The mercenary captain, who looked tired and had obviously just survived a life-and-death crisis, also received J.D.'s report before shutting down the mainframe of the Flame Queen.

"Captain, we were attacked by... some kind of biological weapon. It looked like a skinned frog, but as big as a lion and very fast. With Jiang's help, Ryan and I solved it. The problem now is that we found many working freezers in Restaurant B."

The mercenaries knew the names of the newcomers in the reincarnation because all of them had registered in Umbrella's security system.

The captain of the mercenary frowned and looked at the Flame Queen in the holographic projection state, and then looked at the bloody laser channel with some lingering fear.

Zheng Zha was right next to the entrance of the channel. When he saw him looking over, he squeezed out a simple smile.

He smiled back-it was obvious that Zheng Zha had already got his first pot of gold. The only regret was that the mercenaries who were traveling with him could not be saved.

"Kaplan, suspend the action." The captain raised his hand and stopped the technical soldiers from dismantling the Flame Queen. He walked to the stereoscopic projection of the little girl. When they were performing their tasks, the AI ​​kept warning them that their actions would bring terrible disasters.

"Why didn't you tell us about Restaurant B?" he asked.

"This is a company secret, I have no right to disclose it." The AI ​​replied.

"Besides Restaurant B, what other secrets does Umbrella have that threaten us?"

"This is a company secret, I have no right to disclose it." The AI ​​repeated.

"It seems that there are indeed threats outside of Restaurant B." However, the mercenary just nodded. The rigid AI was indeed not as good as his sophisticated rhetoric.

So he took another step closer.

"You said that the reason you killed all the employees in the hive was because if they left alive, they would bring great disaster to all mankind. Combined with the report provided by my soldiers... biological weapons. I have reason to believe that a large-scale biochemical crisis has occurred here, right or not?"

"This is a company secret, I have no right to disclose it." The Flame Queen said the same thing for the third time.

"... Umbrella really has some ridiculously big troubles." The corners of the mercenary captain's mouth twitched slightly. "Then, you probably won't take the initiative to release those biochemical monsters to attack us, thus causing a second outbreak of the biochemical crisis, right?"

The AI ​​did not answer. But the captain of the mercenaries had already gotten the answer he wanted.

He connected the communication.

"J.D., are you okay? Are you injured?"

"No, Jiang saved my life. Otherwise, my head would have exploded under the tongue of that monster."

"Very good. Jiang, and Zheng. They are trustworthy. Does the monster have any weaknesses?"

"They have sharp hearing and are afraid of noise. Stun grenades are particularly effective against them." On the other end of the communication, J.D. told the information he knew.

"Stay there, don't act rashly. We will be here soon." The captain terminated the communication.

"Kaplan." He said to the technician, "You and two people stay here to watch this AI, everyone else. Prepare indoor shotgun weapons, stun grenades, and C4 explosives."

He paused, then said.

"Although time is tight, it is not too short. I judge that the refrigerators will have problems after the Fire Queen is shut down, so we will spend more time before that to deal with everything that will become a problem-everyone, run!"

His will changed the fate of the mercenaries.

…………………………

——I understand.

——The reason why Kaplan was saved this time is because this Licker will kill him in the future! In the original plot, there was only one Licker that escaped from the cold storage, and Kaplan survived until he got on the train leaving the hive, but was killed in an instant by the chasing Licker in the final trial!

——Side plot...Yes, this is the true meaning of the side plot. I didn't change his fate for a moment, but his fate for a lifetime! Only in this way can it be justified!

In Restaurant B, Jiang Yu clenched his fists gently. His thinking paid off. He saw J.D. standing guard at the door with Lane after the call ended, and he and Matt were transferred to a safer sealed small room.

To be precise, he was transferred in. Matt was handcuffed at the door, and they had let down their guard against him because a few minutes ago, he was still sharing hardships with them.

Reverse the fate of the mercenary Kaplan and obtain a C-level side story and 2000 reward points.

Before the Lord informed him of this, Jiang Yu had always thought that even if he got a side story, it should be the side story of Rayne or J.D. Because the one he fought side by side with was them, not the technical soldier who was at least a few hundred meters away.

This was unreasonable - and even more unreasonable than this was the side story mechanism he knew before crossing. He really couldn't understand why those fan fiction protagonists could easily pick up a lot of harmless side stories. But the Zhongzhou team in the original work struggled hard and could hardly get a few.

This was unreasonable.

The Lord was not here to open a charity hall. The reward points were given so harshly, so how could the side story be given away by clicking. Moreover, if you can get a side story by saving a mortal supporting character, then when this person encounters a death crisis for the second time and saves it again, will there be another side story?

Obviously not, and there are real examples there.

Matthew Addison... Zheng Zha saved his life, and then he easily survived the team battle of Resident Evil 2. However, he was the only one who survived. Even though he was a captain with excellent action and decision-making ability, the candidates who survived to the second part were still the same as in the original movie.

This shows that the side plot does not correspond to a one-time rescue, but a lifetime of rescue. This is like the "death calamity" in fortune-telling. As long as you survive it and no longer encounter the supreme power of the Lord God, the character who earned the side plot should be able to live to natural aging and death without pain or disaster.

This is just a guess, lacking enough evidence to prove it. With Jiang Yu's brain, it is actually impossible to deduce such a detailed result... He would not even think in this direction. But now he is standing on the shoulders of the giants who have formed the entire set of subsequent additional settings of the original author and the countless fantastic ideas of many fan authors.

——I have a guess.

——Saving people once is saving people for a lifetime. Obviously, only reincarnations can do this. And the reason why reincarnations can do it is because the power of the Lord God drives it.

——What is the purpose of the Lord God? Ha, knowing the subsequent settings, I naturally understand that its essence is a large-scale rehabilitation center for veteran cadres, with the goal of allowing the saints who died in the past to return or for the lost heritage to sprout again. It encourages reincarnations to throw themselves into challenges one after another and continue to grow.

——So, saving once means saving a lifetime. It is the power of the Lord God. The Lord God extracts the disaster of a character and turns it into a branch plot that can be obtained. This means that there is no such thing as a free pick-up of the branch plot. Once the reincarnation wants to obtain it, it will appear in front of the challenger in the form of the disaster extracted by the Lord God.

The branch plot is a challenge created by the Lord God using the disaster of others. Only by crossing it can it be obtained. And the challenge will be related to the disaster itself-for example, Zheng Zha triggered Matthew Addison's branch, so the disaster he faced was like a laser channel. And I triggered Kaplan's branch, so I have to fight against the Licker.

——But I didn't trigger Kaplan's branch... No, I don't need to, because someone helped me trigger it. It was Zhang Jie, who was the one who left me in Restaurant B. That's why I got this branch plot that I need to pick up with my hands... Because it's against the rules! The Lord God is telling me that if I want to trigger the plot, I have to pick it up myself!

——Then Zheng Zha was also against the rules that time... No, it wasn't Zheng Zha! Zheng Zha opened his mouth to warn, but he was called in with Mou Gang, who had no abnormal behavior from beginning to end. Mou Gang was the one who was challenged by Zhang Jie to open the branch in violation of the rules, which led to Mou Gang's death, and the Lord God gave Zheng Zha the same advice!

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, all of this was just speculation. And he felt that he could bet that Zhang Jie should not be able to force the opening of the branch many times in a short period of time, so Li Xiaoyi was captured by the suddenly appearing alien in the second game, and Zhan Lan was suddenly forced to face the curse in the third game. And if his judgment is true, then at this moment when he is facing the challenge of fate, Mu Gang should not have died under the guns of the mercenaries.

The small room is very quiet, Matt can't see here-Jiang Yu silently opened the suitcase he had been carrying with him. He took out the injection gun inside, and then carefully installed the green medicine.

The blue medicine is T stock solution, and the green medicine is T vaccine. He injected the vaccine into his body because he guessed that he might be able to use it soon.

Because he spoke when everything was put back to the original state-

"Are you scratched? I don't think that thing is very safe, it's best not to get close to it." This was said a little late, but for Lane, who would be infected by being bitten, it was a perfect warning.

Sure enough, in the next second, he heard the answer from Lane, not J.D.

"Don't worry, we are professionals." Her voice was full of the confidence of a warrior. In the conventional fan routine, Lane in this state has been saved by the reincarnations.

The Lord God did not issue a notice.

——Very good... It seems that no matter how careful I am, I will be infected with the T virus.

Jiang Yu thought, and he heard a series of footsteps. He carried the box on his back and walked to the door. He happened to see the mercenary captain with four intact bodies, rushing to the place where Restaurant B was located with a group of people.

He saw Zheng Zha in the crowd, and also saw Mou Gang who was still alive.
