Chapter 57 - Chapter 57: Reunion, Ada

"Slavs don't have this kind of habit." Balalaika naturally didn't believe it.

"No creature could possibly miss under gunfire, Aiden, you must have been scared." After saying this, she waved her hand again, and the adjutant switched the photo.

"These people don't need your introduction, I know them very well." Looking at the people in the photo, Balalaika said, "People from Country M's military... hmm, I really want to engage them right now."

In the photo were actually members of the Echo Six squad, and of course, some people Aiden didn't recognize. It looked like there were dozens of them.

However, that wasn't the main focus, because the final group of photos appeared.

"Actually, the final group of photos are all from the same company." Looking at the portraits in the photo, Balalaika said, "According to the information, they all belong to a pharmaceutical company called Umbrella?"

"But I find it a bit strange. Even though they use the same logo, they came in separately as two groups, and they don't seem very familiar with each other."

While speaking, Balalaika had the adjutant switch the photo again.

"After entering, they had no contact with each other, didn't even meet face to face, but their logos are the same, like an umbrella."

Balalaika said with great confusion; she felt something was off.

And after Aiden saw the last group of photos, he suddenly stood up and stared at the woman in the photo and said, "How could it be her?"

A blonde young woman appeared in the photo. But she looked very young, seemingly only in her teens.

"You know her?" Seeing Aiden's extremely serious expression, Balalaika asked.

"Yeah, if I'm not mistaken, she should be the heir of the Ashford family, Alexia Ashford."

"Is she very strong?" Balalaika asked, "Compared to that guy named Wesker you mentioned, what's the difference?"

"In her eyes, Wesker is probably not even as good as a dog." Aiden said.

"Aiden, you're getting more and more exaggerated." The one who refuted him was Revy.

"Just now you said that guy named Albert ignored all modern weapons, and now this woman who's supposedly even more powerful. Is she a god or something?"

"Revy, actually you're not wrong. She… really is a god." Aiden looked at the woman in the photo and said slowly.

'Speaking of which, this is my fault. If it weren't for me, she should have already died.'

At this point, Aiden's expression became serious.

Alexia Ashford.

A genius young girl.

Although in the original storyline, Alexia eventually died due to the arrangements of her idiot father, killed by the particle weapon specially prepared for her.

But now, things were different. Because of Aiden's appearance, Jill and Claire didn't follow the original storyline and had gone through many different things.

Especially Claire, she never went to the Antarctic Research Base. Naturally, she didn't use that particle weapon to kill the not-yet-fully-adapted-to-the-virus Alexia.

So, Alexia could be said to have evolved almost perfectly.

And after leaving the cryogenic pod, she returned to Country M, and using her genius-level skills and nearly invincible strength, drove Spencer out and became the leader of the Umbrella Corporation.

Moreover, she became the thing Spencer envied the most, an immortal… and ageless being.

"You're sounding more and more mysterious." Behind Mr. Chang, Shenhua said, "What god, what ignoring modern weapons, how is that possible? How can a person be faster than bullets?"

"We should believe in science."

"Is that so? Then why do you always use cold weapons?" Revy couldn't stand anyone criticizing Aiden and immediately responded, "Miss Shenhua, I know your past. As a former professional assassin, you usually preferred to use a kukri knife and things called concealed weapons."

"Because bullets always run out. The power of the body is the strongest." Shenhua touched the sheath of the kukri on her leg and said.

"There you go then." Revy clapped her hands hard and said, "Maybe those so-called pharmaceutical companies are actually pursuing stronger physical power."

"That's right." Aiden nodded, "Of course, their original goal was to develop a drug that could cure any disease and extend human lifespan. But they soon discovered that the drug they created could be used militarily, to produce B.O.W.s with absolute dominance. That is, Bio-Organic Weapons. These cheap creations, once mass-produced, could have a serious impact on small-scale conflicts."

"However, once these bioweapons came into existence, many people became addicted to the unimaginable power they brought."

Aiden clenched his fist tightly, then swung it hard.

"The several bioweapons I've encountered were incredibly powerful. Although each had some flaws, they've been constantly improving them."

"And experimentation, especially combat testing, is their best way to validate the virus."

"Raccoon City, that pitiful little city, became the first testing ground. Although… that was just an accident."

As for the bioweapons Aiden talked about, Balalaika and the others still didn't have a detailed understanding. And Aiden found it hard to explain to them, because it would take a long time.

But listening silently on the side, Roberta fell into deep thought. She had once worked for the Colombian Revolutionary Army, and knew some special inside stories.

She knew that a cartel boss in South America, named Javier, once spent a fortune to buy a drug said to cure any disease, hoping to treat his wife and daughter, a mother and daughter on the brink of death from a genetic illness.

But what happened afterward, she didn't know clearly. She only knew that this boss named Javier gradually transitioned into human trafficking.

Although it was called trafficking, all the ones he dealt with were young women, and once they reached his hands, there was basically no news afterward.

She heard many say that these young girls were hidden away by him, for his own enjoyment. But now, it seemed that wasn't all.

Thinking about it, Roberta still didn't speak. That was only her guess. After all, she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.

'This has nothing to do with me.' Roberta looked at Garcia and thought, 'My mission is to bring Young Master back. Everything else has nothing to do with me.' With that thought, Roberta's gaze gradually brightened.

———

This multi-party meeting lasted for about half an hour before ending due to various reasons.

The Moscow Hotel still had to continue monitoring the various forces entering Roanapur.

And the Triad, in addition to assigning some manpower to assist Balalaika, also had to serve as mediators.

There were too many foreign forces, already stirring up quite a bit of unrest in Roanapur. Many small gangs started getting into disputes with them over interests.

So after the meeting ended, Mr. Chang left the Moscow Hotel with Shenhua. Then came the Lagoon Company and Aiden's group.

However, just as they were about to leave, Balalaika called out to Aiden, hoping he could give some guidance.

To this, Aiden only said one sentence, "Prepare more heavy firepower. Although it may not be useful against some people, it's enough for self-defense."

Then, they left.

On the way home, Aiden and the Lagoon Company parted ways midway.

So only one car returned home, alone.

However, just as he opened the door, and Roberta and Garcia entered, Aiden froze when he saw a box suddenly appear in the corner of the hallway.

He remembered, before he left, that box wasn't there.

Thinking for a bit, he walked over, opened the box, and found a note inside.

He turned to look at Roberta and Garcia in the room, then picked up the note. Opening it, there was only one number on it.

Nine.

'Nine.' Looking at the number, Aiden froze briefly, but very soon, he caught a familiar scent from the note.

'Ada, is it you?'

He had been in close contact with Ada, so her scent, or rather, her body fragrance, was very familiar to him.

'So you're here too. Good. Since you're here, I also understand what you're trying to expr

Stuffing the note into his pocket, Aiden also walked into the room, then directly entered the bedroom and locked the door behind him.

Garcia looked at the door, touched his head with some confusion, then seeing Roberta busying herself, frowned and returned to his own bedroom.

To put it bluntly, he still hasn't forgiven Roberta…

Inside the bedroom, Aiden took out the walkie-talkie that Ada had given him back then from the system space. After connecting the earpiece, he adjusted the channel to Channel 9.

"Ada, is that you?" Aiden shouted into the transmitter.

Then, a familiar female voice sounded in his earpiece. "Aiden, long time no see."
