Chapter 55 Truth_1

The Boeing 737 cruising at an altitude of 10,000 meters in the rear cabin, Qin Ming, fastened in his seatbelt, was dozing off without truly being asleep. On this world, airplanes were quite unsafe, each one's opening scene involved a plane being sacrificed.

While he was en route to Tokyo, Ada Wong arrived in Tall Oaks City by helicopter. Situated in the northern part of the United States, this remote city had just been hit by a biochemical terrorist attack. Countless zombies and virus mutants roamed the streets and alleys, explosions, and corpses strewn everywhere, it had essentially become a hell on earth.

She jumped straight down from the ten-meter-high helicopter, a roll on landing bringing her to the vicinity of the church. After effortlessly dispatching the bodies that crawled out of the graves, Ada entered the catacombs beneath the church.

The space hidden beneath the church was incredibly spacious, made up mostly of wooden structures. Spiral staircases extended deep underground, and within these layered spaces, a considerable number of virus experiment creatures were detained.

The fight along the way also made her understand what Qin Ming meant by enhancing combat strength.

She found that her strength and speed had significantly increased, able to punch a zombie's head to smithereens with one blow, able to run 100 meters in 5 seconds at full speed, which, if she were to compete in the Olympics for a sprint, could win her a gold medal.

The nanobots not only gave her superhuman healing abilities but also turned her into a little superwoman.

It was then that Ada truly realized just how significant Dr. Qin's nanobots were as a scientific breakthrough. She needed to explore this place as soon as possible and then go to Tokyo to bring the person back. If he were to die, it would be a colossal loss to the whole of human civilization.

After some effort, Ada finally reached the very bottom of the laboratory. She looked at the five-meter-tall stone platform in front of her; instead of using a grappling hook, she got a running start and leaped directly onto the platform.

Below the platform was a wide circular plaza, paved with gray slabs.

At this moment, a man and a woman were fiercely battling a mutated female with eight huge insect limbs.

The man with parted hair was Leon, fighting alongside him was the newly appointed national security agent, Helena, and the fruit girl was Helena's sister Deborah, who had turned into a monster because of the C-virus.

The mutated Deborah no longer recognized her kin and only wanted to kill her sister in front of her. Her sharp insect limbs fiercely stabbed at Helena. Helena rolled away, narrowly avoiding this deadly strike.

But, Leon wasn't so lucky. Three mutated limbs came at him, their attack impenetrable. One of them, taking advantage of his momentary lapse, glinted with a cold sharpness, seemingly about to penetrate his chest.

At this critical moment, Ada Wong sprang high from the platform, dragging a steel pipe with her as she jumped ten meters into the air, and with all her might, smashed down, sending Deborah flying with the tremendous force.

Ada Wong landed from mid-air and saw that the steel pipe had bent at a ninety-degree angle, clearly no longer usable. She casually tossed aside the steel pipe, cracked her knuckles, and lunged unarmed at the struggling fruit girl.

With the Nano System, she was unafraid of the virus and ordinary physical damage. With a ferocious tactic of trading blow for blow, she completely overwhelmed Deborah's mutated form, leaving her no chance to fight back.

"Ada?"

Leon was utterly shocked as he watched the red cheongsam-clad woman brutally beat the mutant.

It had been over a decade since their last encounter in Africa. He didn't know what this woman had been through these years, but she had become so violent and fierce, she was virtually a humanoid bio-organic weapon.

Hearing Leon's voice, Ada Wong landed a heavy punch to knock Deborah down and then smiled at the old acquaintance.

"Leon, we meet again."

"Why do you all have that look as if you've seen a ghost?"

"Ada, is it really you?" Leon's face showed surprise and curiosity. "Your body?"

"You mean my strength?"

"It's the latest technological achievement."

"You'll find out eventually."

Ada didn't say much more. Her high heels sprung sharp blades, and, beneath her cheongsam, her long legs whipped through the air like a fierce gale, delivering a crushing kick that burst Deborah's head wide open.

After doing all this, she turned to Leon:

"Looks like you've been dragged into this mess too."

"Yes, because of Simmons."

The two parties began to exchange information. Ada Wong only then realized that Leon and Helena had also been framed by Simmons, and that the biochemical terror attack in Tall Oaks City was orchestrated by him alone.

The President of the United States came to Tall Oaks City intending to disclose the truth about the Raccoon City tragedy from more than a decade ago, but he was attacked and turned into a zombie. As the agent tasked with protecting the President, Leon had no choice but to draw his gun and kill him.

Simmons and his family's influence were immensely powerful; they had always maintained the world's stability from the shadows, ensuring that the United States led the global order. They didn't want a president to change all that. If the President revealed the truth about Raccoon City, the United States would lose all authority, and the global political order would collapse. Therefore, Simmons and his family had no choice but to kill the President.

After sharing this, Leon also told her about the existence of a videotape and that laboratory.

The two parted ways, with Leon and Helena preparing to confront Simmons in Tokyo.

Meanwhile, Ada Wong continued her exploration in the laboratory, where she found the videotape and saw someone who looked exactly like her emerge from a chrysalid.

"She really does look like me, no wonder Leon couldn't tell us apart,"

After watching the video, Ada immediately realized that the person she had been talking to wasn't really Simmons but Carla.

At that moment, Carla, who had been masquerading as Simmons, called her:

"So, do you understand everything now?"

"I will destroy everything he's built, including you!"

"Is that so? Then let's see who has the last laugh."

Ada Wong hung up the phone and looked eastward, "Dr. Qin, I hope you're safe."

Without hesitation, she set off to Tokyo to find Carla and Dr. Qin.

Ada Wong was determined to stop Carla's plan to destroy the world and to find Dr. Qin.

Tokyo was about to get very lively.

The truth had surfaced. Since ancient times, a beautiful woman has often been a source of trouble and, in reality, the root of all this chaos could be traced back to Simmons and Ada Wong themselves.

Simmons, as the National Security Advisor of the United States, became deeply infatuated with the talented and beautiful Ada Wong during their time working together. After Ada left, Simmons's pathological possessiveness drove him to attempt cloning her using human experimentation, but hundreds of test subjects ended in failure. Finally, Simmons discovered that Carla, one of his female researchers, was the most suitable candidate.

Carla also harbored feelings for Simmons and, under his persuasion, she was transformed into the likeness of Ada Wong through the C-virus and Ada's DNA fragments. The reborn Carla, initially brainwashed, truly believed she was Ada Wong and helped Simmons in all sorts of deeds. However, as time passed, Carla's remaining consciousness revived and she began taking her revenge on Simmons. She founded the Neo Umbrella Corporation and planned to use the C-virus to destroy the world that Simmons and his family had worked so hard to maintain.

In terms of romance stories, this was a melodramatic tale of two women and one man locked in endless strife, a saga of love turning to hatred.
