As Ben was filled with confusion and bewildernt, the ga screen had turned black.
It was like a thunderclap at the start!
Ethan was definitely going to face so things, and he was ntally prepared for that.
He had already made many guesses beforehand, such as the organization called the "Well-Fed" causing another big event.
Evelyn might not be dead and would make a coback in this ga.
But what he completely didn't expect was Chris suddenly bursting into Ethan's ho with his team and killing Mia.
What is this all about?!
Could Chris be the real mastermind?
But that made no sense at all!
Although Chris only appeared once at the end of the previous ga, there was DLC content that allowed players to control Chris.
Based on the story description of Chris in that content, he was clearly a good guy.
He had saved the world many tis and eliminated evil bio-pharmaceutical companies.
But what is the situation now?
'Go! Go quickly!'
The escort team mbers wearing gas masks behind him pushed Ethan, urging him to move faster.
Outside the door, Chris stood with his back to Ethan.
Just then, a baby's cry was heard. A team mber ca down from the second floor, holding the infant Rose, and handed her to Chris: 'No threat, target secured, sir.'
Looking at his own daughter before him, Ethan beca furious.
'Rose? What are you going to do with my child?'
Behind Chris, Ethan gave orders to the team mbers.
'Take him away.'
As Rose cried, Ethan, worried about his daughter, unleashed unimaginable strength, struggled free from the team mbers escorting him, and charged towards Chris, wanting to get his daughter Rose back.
'I said! Don't touch her!'
However, before Ethan could reach Chris, a team mber next to him knocked him out with the butt of his rifle.
The world spun around him, only Rose's cries in his ears, and his vision gradually blurred.
Ethan struggled to get up but was dragged outside by the escort team mbers. He desperately raised his hand, as if to grab Chris and keep his daughter: 'Rose... Rose...'
In Ethan's cries, the scene turned black.
About two or three seconds later, in a daze, a phone rang. Ethan seed to return to the past.
However, the slightly hazy scene told the player that this was a flashback.
The world spun, only the sound of Rose's crying could be heard, and his vision blurred.
Ethan struggled to get up but was dragged outside by the escort team. Despairingly, he raised his hand as if to reach for Chris and keep his daughter: 'Rose... Rose...'
As Ethan called out, his vision went black.
After about two or three seconds, in a hazy daze, a phone ring was heard, and Ethan seed to have returned to the past.
However, the slightly blurry scene told players that this was a flashback.
'Hello, Doctor.' Ethan answered the ringing phone.
'Mr. Winters, your child's results are out. If it's convenient, would you and your wife be able to co to the hospital next Thursday at 4 PM for a consultation?'
'No problem, see you then.'
After hanging up, Ethan looked at Mia, who was slowly walking towards him, and explained: 'It's the doctor's call, we have an appointnt next Thursday.'
But Mia looked worried.
Ethan looked at Mia and comforted her: 'Mia, be optimistic, we've talked about this.'
'Yes, we've hardly talked about anything else.'
Mia sat on the armrest of the sofa, shaking her head: 'I've been wanting to tell you, it's not Rose I'm worried about.'
'Then what are you worried about?' Ethan didn't understand Mia's aning at all.
'She's perfectly fine, I know.' Mia stood up and looked at Ethan.
'Then what are you concerned about?'
'I'm concerned about us! Ethan!' Mia walked towards the door, shouting angrily.
'I care about you! But you just...'
'Mia, what are you talking about?' Ethan walked towards Mia: 'Are you hiding sothing from ? Please talk to , okay?'
As soon as he finished speaking, Mia's expression beca even uglier. She looked at Ethan with a complicated expression, wanting to speak but hesitating. At this mont, Ethan's phone rang again.
'Damn it... I... I'll take this call first.' Ethan waved his phone.
Mia, standing by the door, gave Ethan a deep look, angrily punched the doorfra, and then left the room.
Ethan's phone continued to ring in the room, but at this mont, Ben was completely confused.
What on earth is going on?
A string of questions swirled in Ben's mind.
Why did Chris kill Mia?
What was Mia hiding from Ethan?
Why did they snatch Rose?
Couldn't they just say everything at once?!
Why be so hesitant and cryptic!
What kind of things would happen next? Ben's mind was full of questions.
At this mont, the ga screen slowly appeared.
Amidst a ringing sound, Ethan slowly opened his eyes, and the surroundings were a ss.
Around him were bodies of escort team mbers and damaged vehicles. Apart from Chris, all other team mbers seed to have t their end.
Just like those unlucky souls in the DLC of the previous ga, Resident Evil.
'So the story will revolve around discovering the truth of why Chris snatched his daughter?'
'Good heavens, looking for his wife in the last ga, and now looking for his daughter in this ga, like The Witcher 3!'
Ben couldn't help but sigh.
As for this kind of cryptic setup, though it's an old trope, it's always effective.
And it always sparks players' curiosity. You might be stomping your feet in frustration, but you still want to know what the armadillo said!
At the sa ti, several more mysteries arose. How did the car flip over? What kind of entity attacked them? Where did Chris and Ethan's daughter Rose go?
Everything clearly relied on Ethan to discover.
Controlling Ethan as he staggered up from the ground, a man's voice ca from the phone.
After only two sentences, the other party realized Ethan wasn't the owner of the phone and imdiately hung up.
'So... it's starting now, asking to explore!? What the hell! In the last ga, it was sunny before entering the house, but now it's dark at night?!'
Picking up the flashlight from the ground, Ben swallowed.
At this mont in the ga, heavy snow was falling, and it was pitch black. In front of him was a dark path that seed to have no end. The flashlight beam was not very bright, and the snowy weather made his vision very limited.
The only good news was that the ga still followed the tradition of the previous ga; this flashlight was nuclear-powered.
'This feels so familiar...' Ben moved forward cautiously, muttering to himself.
The narrow field of vision, the cramped path, the eerie and terrifying atmosphere, and the not-so-bright flashlight.
Bad mories from the past repeatedly surfaced in his mind, and combined with the current scene, he felt a little numb, his heart beating faster.
However, fortunately, the journey was uneventful. Apart from being startled by a crow that wasn't quite dead and a dark shadow he couldn't make out, there wasn't much high tension, just a slightly unsettling atmosphere.
Of course, what Ben complained about even more was Ethan's left hand, which had been through a lot.
In the previous ga, his wife Mia had sawed it off with a chainsaw. Now, just as the ga began, it was bloody from a barbed wire fence. Who knows how much more suffering it would endure later.
Following the path in the snow, Ben soon controlled Ethan to a dilapidated small house. However, he didn't find anything useful. But as he entered the basent attic and turned around, a rumbling sound startled him greatly.
But what worried him more was that it sounded like there had been a fight upstairs.
And would he encounter monsters soon?
He was unard now!
Cautiously, Ben controlled Ethan to slowly go upstairs. But what he found, unexpectedly, was nothing unusual, except for so blood that seed to have just flowed out and had not yet dried.
Through the gaps in the door and windows, he could see that the sky outside was already dawning.
Howling wind and snow blew in through the gaps.
Ethan crawled out through the gaps in the wooden walls of the attic and the clutter, and ca outside the house, proceeding along the cramped path.
Soon, the field of vision suddenly widened.
'Where... where am I?' Ethan looked at everything in front of him and murmured.
