Chapter 17: Ninjas and Pistols

Family affection? For Tina, it was simply a luxurious synonym.

As the cursed child, she was mostly abandoned after birth, and people's attitude towards them was more about cursing and resenting them. If she could experience family affection...

She took a deep breath and accepted Minato Namikaze's suggestion, opening Resident Evil.

When she got here, Minato Namikaze didn't suggest what to play, because he had no idea about these games.

"Are you having trouble, guest?"

Hearing Liu Yuan's inquiry, Tina pointed to the Resident Evil icon that opened a series of selections and asked, "Which of these... is interesting?"

Indeed, family affection was tempting, but Tina always felt strange experiencing it in a game.

At the same time, she also felt that the man next to her had ill intentions, but it was the owner of this internet cafe who seemed more responsible.

"Interesting? Just like this guest said, if you want to experience family affection, you can play the Eighth Generation. This generation allows you to experience what it's like to be a father, or rather, a somewhat qualified father. If you want to experience the plot perfectly, I suggest starting from Zero. If you prefer a more immersive experience, I recommend 2. Just starting out as a rookie cop and a female college student searching for her brother, the rest of the identities are slightly more special."

Looking at the entire history of Resident Evil, only the protagonists of the 2nd generation seemed the most ordinary.

But if you were familiar with the plot, in fact, the two protagonists of the 2nd generation were the toughest.

They fought all the way through Raccoon City, a rookie cop and a female college student, clearing Raccoon City without any injuries?

After weighing her options, Tina found that Claire from the 2nd generation looked very attractive. There was also this character in the games that followed, but not before. So this character should be a transitional one. After thinking about it, she chose Claire to start.

Next, Tina showed what real skills were. As a cursed child, she had excellent physical fitness coupled with systematic firearms training, so she quickly adapted to the game.

Entering the game, she felt the uniqueness of it, being able to sense the outside world while her five senses had extremely realistic experiences.

The weight of the firearms was exactly the same as in reality, even reloading and ballistics, everything matched reality, so she didn't need any adaptation.

Tina gradually found her rhythm and felt relaxed in this environment.

She had intentionally revealed her identity earlier, but no one in the shop reacted.

Only Liu Yuan looked somewhat surprised, but the glint in his eyes was not rejection but curiosity, like the curiosity of seeing someone with changing pupils for the first time.

Tina felt relaxed for the first time sensing these gazes, much better than the usual malice.

Tina progressed smoothly, encountering Leon, experiencing a car accident, and exploring the police station. It could be said to be a standard process.

Minato Namikaze, who had been observing, found nothing special after watching for a long time and feeling no strange power, so he also entered the game.

However, after entering the game, he found that something was a bit off.

Tina indeed encountered some disgusting zombies after entering the game, but they were only slightly disgusting. With guns and teammates, she easily passed the opening tutorial.

But when Minato continued from his previous save, he found that the car he was in had flipped?

The person who caught him died, and his daughter was missing?

There were footprints on the snowy ground, and through these footprints, he could tell that his 'daughter' had been abducted.

In the game, Minato Namikaze couldn't explore freely due to the difficulty level, so he could only follow the footprints.

First, he walked through the dark snowy field, saw some bloodstains on the ground, and heard strange sounds.

After walking down a dark path, the view suddenly opened up, and he saw a village.

This village had smoke rising and a castle, giving him a feeling of grandeur at first glance.

Then, he felt the deep malice from the game.

Encountering villagers, being taken away, armed with a knife and a gun, he immediately chased after them.

"So dark..."

He fell into a basement, and the large number of corpses in the basement accelerated Minato Namikaze's heartbeat. But in order to find his daughter, he continued to explore until...

"!!!"

He was suddenly startled by the appearance of a werewolf, and when he tried to block with his hand, the werewolf bit his finger and swallowed it.

Pain, excruciating pain.

This pain felt so real.

But he endured it, and the small knife in his hand instantly stabbed into the werewolf's eye socket, then he forcefully slashed, killing the werewolf before it could escape.

"Whew... this feeling..."

Minato Namikaze felt that his finger was gone in the game, but in reality, he could still feel the presence of his finger.

Without the physical fitness of a ninja, even if his reactions were fast, he could only get injured when facing such a sudden attack.

Looking at his bleeding right hand, he quickly wrapped it with a piece of cloth.

With a slightly stronger body of an ordinary person, he faced enemies that he couldn't defeat without using chakra. His first thought was to retreat, but now all he could think about was one thing: rescuing his daughter. If he hesitated for a second, his daughter could be in danger.

Ethan's character influenced him, and with his child about to be born, his love for his child gradually immersed him completely into the role.

Although Minato Namikaze was playing in game mode, the game mode only restricted the range of activities and the direction of the plot. There were no restrictions on how to fight or explore.

This time, Minato Namikaze tried to use his wisdom to defeat the enemies.

At the same time, he was curious about the pistol in his hand. With the help of the system and Tina's previous demonstration, he knew it was a device that could shoot projectiles.

The pistol was his name, and the bullets were his 'shuriken'.

He tried the power of the pistol, and it was considerable. If he approached a lower ninja within seven steps, this compact pistol could instantly take the life of a lower ninja.

At this moment, he became curious about this firearm...

Behind him, seeing Minato Namikaze dismantling the firearm, Liu Yuan considered whether to tell him that there were more useful firearms in other RE games.

For example, the rocket launcher that Ada Wong could obtain in the 2nd, 4th, and 6th generations. Various assault rifles, Magnum, and flamethrowers.

But considering that for newcomers, these firearms were a surprise, he kept quiet.

Three hours quickly passed, and when the machine prompted that the balance was insufficient to log off, Minato Namikaze left without hesitation.

However, unlike last time, when he returned home, he suddenly discovered that he had a backpack similar to that of a game character, and the pistol was conspicuously placed in the props column.

"What is this..."

With a thought, the pistol appeared in his hand.

LEMI semi-automatic pistol, the earliest weapon obtained by Ethan in Resident Evil 8.

Could this weapon be brought out?

Minato Namikaze originally thought that the internet cafe was simply the whim of some powerful existence, but now he realized it was more than just a whim.

Through the Flying Thunder God, he hurried to a secret training ground outside the village and took out the pistol to fire a few shots.

Then he took out the shotgun, and the effect of a single shot made his heart race.

Sneaking behind enemies with the Flying Thunder God and then ambushing them with the shotgun, he couldn't imagine how anyone could evade it.

Most importantly, firearms didn't require chakra to use; as long as one's fingers could move, they could be utilized.

Both the feel and the power were exactly like in the game. In that moment, his heart raced.

But soon, he regained control of his emotions and returned home, waking Kushina.

"Wake up."

"What's wrong?"

"Take this. I'll teach you how to use it. Keep this weapon for self-defense, but don't let others know about it."

In a direct confrontation, this weapon could defeat even high-ranking ninjas, let alone middle-ranking ones.

But in an ambush? Within seven steps, a single shot could hit the target instantaneously.

In his world, there were no firearms like this. If Kusina learned to use this weapon, even if she encountered unexpected situations, she could handle them as long as she used it properly.

The speed of sound, a speed that most high-ranking ninjas couldn't reach. Yet, every bullet fired by this little thing could reach the speed of sound. It was perfect for ambushes.

The only downside was that after giving the firearm to his beloved, he would no longer have it.

At the same time, however many bullets were in the game, that was how many bullets he could bring out.

At this moment, Minato regretted using so many bullets in the game; if he hadn't used so many, he could have left more for Kushina.
