No doubt, this was the most satisfying BOSS fight from the start of the game.
The empty plains were filled with fire and explosions.
Firelight crisscrossed, and it was clear that where Heisenberg's transformed body had metal joints, they glowed dark red.
In a game, this would almost be a clear sign to players: these are the BOSS's weak spots, attack them quickly.
But right now, Ben didn't really want to end the fight so soon.
Driving the tank had been too much fun.
This part of the game really proved the saying: "Fear comes from a lack of firepower."
There was no fear at all, only extreme excitement.
However, even with all that, the fight was still very thrilling.
Because in the middle part, Heisenberg entered a new phase. Whether it was a story event or something else, in this phase, Heisenberg gathered his magnetic powers and absorbed all the metal around him into his core.
During this phase, Ethan, who was in the tank, fell out and had to fight on foot.
But even though it was a fight on foot, ammunition supplies were very plentiful.
The ground was littered with shotgun shells and sniper rifle ammo. Using the grenade launcher to continuously bombard the transformed Heisenberg, Heisenberg quickly entered his final berserk mode.
He once again created a magnetic tornado, sucking everything into his core.
Even Ethan was sucked up this time.
"You really should have taken the chance I gave you! Goodbye, Ethan Winters!"
"See you in the next life, Rose!"
"Once I kill that slut Miranda, Rose's power will be mine!"
On the entire open ground, the tornado created by magnetic force sucked in all the metal, making for a truly overwhelming spectacle.
Even the tank that Chris had made was sucked into the air.
At this moment, Heisenberg was incredibly arrogant.
But he didn't know that Ethan, currently in the air, had managed to return to the tank.
At this time, Ethan was struggling with his hands to grip the tank's cannon lever.
"You're the one who should die!"
Ethan in the air pulled the cannon lever.
Boom!
With a loud noise, the cannon fired from its barrel, hitting the center of Heisenberg's core and dealing immense explosive damage.
Along with the core's explosion, a pained scream came from Heisenberg's mouth, full of unwillingness.
"No! No! This can't be my end! I… have to… kill her!"
However, time was not on Heisenberg's side to vent his hatred.
A second explosion struck.
Fire shot into the sky, and a massive explosion swallowed Heisenberg in the center, leaving behind only a crystal-like structure.
Ethan, lying on the grass, panted as he got up.
At this time, Chris called.
"Ethan? I just saw the explosion on your end, are you alright?" Chris's voice came from the phone.
"I just dealt with Heisenberg, and now I'm going to find Miranda and save Rose," Ethan answered the call.
"I'm coming with you, it's too dangerous for you alone. Wait there, you hear me?" Chris said on the phone.
However, just as Ethan was about to reply, he suddenly heard the cry of a baby.
The moment he heard the sound, Ethan recognized it as the cry of his daughter, Rose.
"Rose…"
Chris, on the other end of the phone, heard Ethan's mumble and immediately sensed something was wrong, shouting urgently, "Ethan! Do you hear me? Ethan! Ethan! Answer me!"
However, at this moment, Ethan had no mind to listen to what Chris was saying on the phone. He was frantically looking around, trying to find the source of the crying.
But the next moment, as Ethan turned his head, a woman appeared before him.
Ethan froze: "Mia?"
It was Mia walking towards him. Mia spoke as she walked towards Ethan: "Our child… she's the most important thing in the world, right?"
"She's my everything!" Ethan said without hesitation.
"Me too. But Heisenberg is dead, and your lead is gone. What will you do next?" Mia asked.
At this moment, Ethan realized it. He pointed his gun at the 'Mia' in front of him: "I don't know, but I will definitely save Rose!"
"Heh…" The Mia before him, or rather Miranda, let out a disdainful laugh: "You always know nothing, don't you? Even when I took Mia's place in your home!"
"Where is Mia and Rose!" Ethan fired directly.
But the next second, three pairs of black wings grew from Miranda's back, enveloping her. The bullets hit them but couldn't harm her at all.
And on the ground around them, a large mass of black, viscous liquid surged in, forming plant-like roots, just like when facing the final Evelyn in the previous game.
"Remember Evelyn?" Miranda paced back and forth, changing forms every so often.
Mia, Miranda, and the old woman they met in the village before.
"What do you mean?" Ethan recalled the memories from three years ago, pointing his gun at Miranda.
"Rose inherited her abilities… No, it should be said that Rose is the most complete form. She can completely control humans. And I want to possess her!"
"Go to hell, you crazy hag!"
Listening to Miranda's words, Ethan became completely enraged. Even though his gun couldn't threaten Miranda at all, Ethan kept firing because it was the only thing he could do at the moment.
"Calm down, Rose will be saved. Because the Mold recorded everything about us, but she will be reborn as my daughter then," Miranda said, looking down on Ethan like a lofty emperor.
"She's my child! Not yours!" Ethan was furious, but in Miranda's hands, he had no power to resist.
"You're a useless little test subject."
"Miranda, get out!" Ethan was extremely angry. He didn't care about anything else, nor did he want to know about Evelyn or the Mold. He just wanted to save his Rose.
But the moment the words left his mouth, the elusive Miranda appeared before him.
Then… "Pfft!"
A claw instantly pierced Ethan's chest.
"Don't worry, Ethan, your death has come."
"You will be added to the Mold's records…"
A beating heart was pulled out by Miranda.
"I will record your blood sample, and when the ritual is complete at dawn, I will become her true mother, and this bloodline will last forever!"
Amidst Miranda's maniacal laughter, Ethan finally couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed on the ground. The scene before him blurred and finally turned to darkness.
Ben, in the game, was completely stunned.
Dead… dead!?
Ethan is dead!?
Boss Lucas, you're back again, aren't you!?
On one hand, he let the player experience a mech shooting battle, and now, in the story, he's stabbing the player straight in the heart.
