Chapter 39 Damnation

Leon eyes goes to Big Liu "Where the hell are we right now?"

"We should be in Mediteranian sea. I listened from the Pilot, they plan to land on German. And there is war happened on some ex Yugoslavian country so right now there is a no fly zone around here and they are trying to evade it"

"Which Resident Evil with the background of German or Yugoslavian country" said Leon, then he asked "Find any newspaper?"

"Ah here it is, but I can't read it" said Mr Wolfe as he give him a bunch of newspaper from a back seat.

Leon gave the paper to Christine, "Can you read it?"

"It's in Germans" she said, "I could read this"

"Check if there anything mentioning biological weapons, and check the date"

"The date is 23 January 2012"

"Raccoon city incident happened in 1998, so we could rule out most <Resident Evil> scenarios. Did any of you have deep knowledge about the <Resident Evil> franchise?"

Daniel raise his hand timidly "I know Resident Evil"

"Which Resident Evil happened in 2012?"

"2012? The closest Resident Evil scenario would be Resident Evil 6" say Daniel.

"So does it happen in German or Former Yugoslavia" ask Big Liu.

"Ah yes, it focused on Edonia Republic, but wether it was placed in Eks Yugoslavia we don't know"

"Found some information related to Bioweapon. President Svetlana of Eastern Slavia Republic published condemnation on rebels using bioweapon" said Catherine.

"The terrorist who use the virus also speak against Eastern Slavia and cursing Svetlana", Daniel startled.

"No, not Resident Evil 5, it seems like…." said Daniel, when suddenly a shake happened.

"This is the Pilot speaking. It seems we have a problem. One of the engines is on fire, and our fuel is leaking. It seems we would be on a crash landing on a nearby air base. All passenger brace for impact!"

Leon looks at others and quickly takes a seat on an empty chair. The second deck has been cleaned from the zombies remnants, but there is much blood left.

"We are going down, the plane no longer able to fly…. This airport is not responding to my call. Brace brace brace!"

Sound of the plane hitting the runway was felt by everyone, then the sound of something breaking as the plane body crashed onto the runway and started to break apart. The few other surviving passengers are crying or praying.

Leon just stays silent and when the movement stops, he quickly releases the seatbelt and checks outside. Outside he saw remnants of T-72 tanks.

"We have landed. Everyone stays together and gets out of the plane. Careful, we are in warzone!" he speak to others.

Everyone gets out slowly. Interestingly, no one died in the rough landing. The plane was breaking apart, but not that bad.

When the Pilot get out from their windows using ropes, they are startled when they see the plane.

"What the..."

"Sorry for the loss of your crew and passenger captain. Somebody used a biological weapon in the back section" Leon spoke to the Captain. There they see remnants of zombies on fire. The worst are strange mutations that lay around everyone. The Captain and the Co-Pilot throw up watching the gruesome scene.

At that moment the System voice was heard in their brain"First Stage Quest : Landing completed. Reward 1000 points. Rescues civilian : 10 people Reward 100 points. Situational Rewards check bracelet"

Leon touch his bracelet as it gives him more detailed report "Experimenter : LEon Connor. First Stage Quest completed : Rewards 1000 points, Rescues 10 civilian rewards 100 points, Kills early stage mutated zombies 24 Rewards 120 points, Kills advanced stage mutated zombie(incomplete) rewards 100 points, kills ordinary zombie : 285, rewards 28 points. Total Reward 1348 points"

"Experimenter Leon Connor Present points : 13 Present surplus time 195 hours 20 minutes Unsettled points: 1348"

Leon eyes twitched…"Unsettled points?"

"Reward points only given after the total completion of the Quest" answer the system

"God damn it"

Well now Leon just sighed. When they see everywhere lays remnants of war. Broken tanks, armored cars, trucks. But there are no remains of the corpse. It was quite eerie.

At that moment the System voice was heard again "Second Stage Quest : Contact Rebel Army and enter Rebel Army camp. Note : Rebel Army are moving to the City Airport at this moment"

Everyone look at each other. Big Liu asked "It order us to make contact with the Rebels? Compared to the quest before, this one ain't simple. Daniel could you give us more information?"

"Well not many know, but Capcom, the one who owns Resident Evil made 2 CGI movies about Resident Evil. <Resident Evil :Degeneration> and <Resident Evil : Damnation>"

Said Daniel Kapoor. Then he sighed again "And there is a probability we are in Resident Evil Damnation plotline. This is very bad as we are likely are embroiled in a civil war situation"

"General plot of the story?" Leon asked.

"This country is called Eastern Slav Republic, basically it was lead by a 12 elder council, but after Uni Sovyet disintegration it was made to have a parliament and basically a Republic. But under capitalism the development goes astray, domestically the economy is controlled by several oligarchs, the economy is so bad as the gap between rich and poor keeps widening until it finally erupted into a civil war. Both sides use biological weapons, but there is no evidence for the international community. Leon Kennedy infiltrated here to find the evidence, and it became the reason for US and Russia military intervention. Because of the involvement of foreign military, the condition ain't going better leaving this country poor and miserable" shiver Daniel answering Leon.

"So in another word, different from the typical Resident Evil plot where we are dealing with slow moving zombies. We also dealing with the risk of more advanced bio weapon running loose, but also a civil war situation?" ask Leon.

"Exactly, beside this is a National level war, and it means mass production. The difficulty is no longer a Novice Level, this is Nightmare level"
