FBI: Chapter 162/163

Chapter 162: Arming the Entire Universe to the Teeth

Dante gasped.

He no longer knew if this broken system was here to help or to take revenge.

To say the things it gave him were useless would be unfair to it.

But to insist they were useful would be like a dead duck refusing to admit defeat.

However, he still needed to study them carefully, what if there were some hidden functions he didn't know about?

So Dante first turned his attention to the black god consciousness he obtained from Mother Miranda.

This black god consciousness, to put it plainly, was the Mold Master's vast mental domain.

Why was Mother Miranda so persistent and certain that she could resurrect her daughter, Rose?

Because the consciousnesses, or rather, the souls of thousands of people, including Rose, who were directly absorbed by the Mold Master, were stored within this black god consciousness.

It was equivalent to a soul storage tank with an almost unlimited capacity.

Another function was the ability to create a mental world within this consciousness domain.

It's worth noting that in the original Resident Evil 8 DLC content, Rose, Ethan's daughter, ventured through a mental world constructed within the black god consciousness and reunited with her father.

Unlike the black god consciousness in the original game, Dante's black god consciousness was completely blank and did not inherit the Mold Master's chaotic thoughts.

How to construct this mental world was entirely up to his own ideas.

To be honest, it wasn't bad at all…

This thing might only be a mental world now, but in the future, it's really hard to say.

After all, Dante had a thing called the Aether Particle in his hand, who knew what strange synergy it might achieve?

Next, Donna Beneviento's plant manipulation.

Nothing much to say, a low-tier Poison Ivy.

And a low-tier one in every aspect.

But the only good thing was that it wouldn't connect to the Green.

When Dante thought about becoming an extreme environmentalist like Poison Ivy, he couldn't help but shiver.

It was too outrageous.

Oliver Queen's shooting talent, however, was an unexpected surprise.

Anything that had the concept of a projectile was applicable to this talent…

He had long wanted to play with Captain America's or Captain Carter's shields.

Those originally incomprehensible, bizarre ricochet arcs could now be perfectly replayed in his mind after gaining Oliver Queen's shooting talent.

How to apply force, what angle to throw it, and in which direction to move to perfectly catch it.

Conceptual things always have their uses.

After looking at the first three, even if Dante didn't want to, it was time for the new ability he dreaded most.

Damn, you really can't complain too much about certain things, in this boomerang era, who knows which word you say will come back to hit you in the face.

Dante, feeling utterly exasperated, checked the description of the Vehicle Killer ability…

The more he read, the more comfortable he felt.

Not only was this a conceptual skill…

It was also an active skill.

If Leon S. Kennedy's passive Vehicle Killer was the ultimate pitfall.

But when a passive skill turned into an active skill, Dante couldn't help but be amazed.

What incredible luck.

Dante unilaterally declared.

Leon S. Kennedy, from today onwards, was his dear brother from another mother and father.

Dante even had the idea of recruiting all the Resident Evil protagonists into the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

What if they performed missions together in the future and triggered other conceptual skills?

Like an active version of "Teammate Killer."

…

The mass production and distribution of the vaccine proceeded very quickly.

It was even completed before nightfall.

Dante stood side by side with Fury, watching the sun gradually rise from the horizon, its light illuminating the Earth.

Above the Earth, there was no longer any trace of the E-Mold.

"Dante, actually, after every incident, I always think about one question…"

"What? You think I'm underpaid?"

"You are indeed underpaid… But what I'm thinking about is, if you had never appeared in this world, what direction would these incidents have taken?"

"This is not me bragging to you, but if it weren't for me, things would still be resolved, but…" Dante shook his head, "This Universe would accelerate its destruction."

Fury turned his head sharply, surprise showing in his single eye.

"Are you serious?"

"Although I give you nicknames, take your car for a drive, and date your daughter, I have never lied to you."

"…You damn well made a move on Harley!?"

"What the hell, is your focus a bit off!?"

Upon hearing this, Fury temporarily suppressed the urge to punch Dante in the eye, then coughed twice and continued, "Ahem, you really haven't lied to me."

Everything Dante had done, he had indeed seen with his own eyes.

Trust is mutual.

This overly suspicious guy, Dante, had given him complete trust from beginning to end.

To what extent was Fury suspicious?

He was a ruthless person who even doubted himself and lied to himself.

But now, he had absolute trust in Dante.

It wouldn't be a problem to say that Dante was now an absolute number two figure with equal authority to him.

If Dante didn't need to stay on the front lines, Fury would have even considered directly giving the Director position to Dante.

He had proposed the topic of changing the secondment to a full transfer to the Republic General Bureau at least dozens of times.

All of them were rejected by that guy, Tao Brothers.

And every time, he would reply with a dog head emoji, followed by "You think I'm stupid, bro?", which always made Fury lose his composure.

Damn, are Republic people so good at messing with people's minds?

"Since you haven't lied to me, can you explain why you say that without you, the destruction of this Universe would accelerate?"

"That involves threats from beyond the Universe."

Dante pouted.

Don't look at him as if he had no pressure, but one thing always weighed on his mind…

That was to make the positive forces within this Universe stronger.

Although there were already two God of Humanity located in Metropolis and Storybrooke Town respectively, it was not enough.

And Dr. Jack Bright, who was currently sunbathing on the roof of the headquarters, also indirectly proved that beyond this Universe, there existed the Foundation Universe, an existence that could be called the cancer of the Multiverse.

"Beyond the Universe…"

Fury murmured.

He had thought the biggest threat came from extraterrestrial sources, but Dante said the biggest threat came from beyond the Universe.

Doesn't that mean…

The things he had planned needed to change.

The goal of shielding the Earth had to be completely abandoned.

Arming the entire Universe to the teeth was their ultimate goal.

Thinking of this, Fury sighed.

This was no longer just the responsibility of the America General Bureau.

It seems…

The five General Bureau needed to hold a meeting.

"Dante."

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, if you make Harley unhappy, I will definitely cut all your funding!"

"Your current mindset is quite similar to another one-eyed old man."

"Who is that?"

"Oh, that old man is called Odin, nothing special, just an ordinary King of Gods."

(To be continued.)

Chapter 163: Don’t Hide, Evelyn

Fury has always been a man of action.

Just like when he first thought of creating S.H.I.E.L.D. specifically to deal with extraterrestrial forces, the space station that would serve as its base had already been launched and was currently orbiting near Earth.

As the host and initiator of the Five General Bureaus' meeting, Fury was also decisive, directly sending invitations to the other four General Bureaus.

Fury originally wanted Dante to attend, after all, this matter was proposed by him.

But who is Dante?

Make him attend a meeting?

Dream on.

Let the Five General Bureaus discuss it themselves.

After leaving Director Fury with a sunny yet mischievous smile, Dante jumped into a portal.

Fury's complaints, Dante naturally could no longer hear.

He arrived at the Federal Bureau of Investigation's medical department.

The team members who had just participated in this operation, as well as the Resident Evil protagonists, were all here.

"Yo, Cole, are you done with the check-up?"

"All of our people have been tested, and there's no E-Mold residue."

"That's good... What about the others?"

This result was within Dante's expectations. After all, although the Federal Bureau of Investigation team members who went on this mission didn't have any special abilities, they were the elite of the elites. If they could be infected by a group of Molded creatures, they really wouldn't need to be in this line of work.

Go home and sell sweet potatoes or become a CEO.

"The others... You should see for yourself."

Cole said, then led Dante to another room.

This room was larger and better equipped, and all the top experts from the Federal Bureau of Investigation's medical department were gathered here.

A joint consultation of experts.

And the one being consulted was our dear human Molded creature, Ethan Winters.

As for the other Resident Evil protagonists, they also became key observation subjects.

"Amazing, simply amazing." Dr. Stephen Strange, the chief surgeon of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's medical department, took off his medical gloves and walked towards the two, "He is clearly the same kind as those bizarre Molded creatures that were brought back, yet he still retains human consciousness and memory... I truly don't know if it's a positive effect of the E-Mold, or a hymn to the human soul."

"Good day, Dr. Stephen Strange." Dante stepped forward and shook hands with the famous Dr. Stephen Strange, "It was truly not my intention to pull everyone out of their sleep for overtime this time... I suggest asking Director Fury to give the medical department a raise."

"Hahaha, Agent Dante, in the entire America General Bureau, besides you, there isn't a second person who can force Director Fury to give a raise."

Stephen Strange, before becoming Doctor Strange, was indeed an exceptionally proud and arrogant fellow.

But as the saying goes, when you are weak, you are surrounded by bad people.

But when you become strong, you will find that everyone is exceptionally kind.

Given Dante's position in the America General Bureau, who would dare to show him disrespect?

Perhaps only Hela, Ada, and Harley, these three women, would mess with him a bit when they were feeling jealous.

However, Dante didn't really care about these things.

"Dr. Stephen Strange, have you already discovered Ethan Winters's anomaly?"

"That's right, at first we only thought there was a slight E-Mold residue, but then we found out... This isn't just a bit of E-Mold residue, this is practically a human soul that grew out of the E-Mold, it's truly amazing."

Stephen Strange nodded and continued;

"And it's not just him, his wife and daughter also show obvious anomalies!"

"His wife was infected with E-Mold for a long time, but she always remained on the borderline between mutation and stability... Of course, she is now tending towards stability. But all other infected individuals, once they reached this borderline, without exception, irreversibly turned into those bizarre Molded creatures."

"And his daughter is even more outrageous, she's essentially the child of a Molded creature and a human close to mutation!"

"Leaving aside issues like reproductive isolation, the most important thing is that her daughter, after testing, can be said to be a perfect E-Mold carrier. One hundred percent stable. Which means... through various coincidences, a human evolutionary form was truly created through the E-Mold!"

Dante looked at the overly excited Stephen Strange and quickly reached out to interrupt him.

He was afraid this fellow would pass out if he couldn't catch his breath.

"Stop, stop, Dr. Stephen Strange, you can keep these world-shattering discoveries to yourselves internally..." Dante smiled and continued to ask, "What I want to know is, have you told Ethan about this?"

Stephen Strange finally calmed down a bit after being interrupted, but his tone was still somewhat excited, "Of course not. We are very compliant with Federal Bureau of Investigation regulations. We won't reveal a single bit of information to the patient before reporting it to Director Fury for a decision."

"That's good." Dante nodded, "I'll make the final decision on this matter. Don't tell Ethan the truth. You just need to report it to Director Fury later."

"This matter will certainly be as you wish." Stephen Strange nodded, not at all thinking there was any problem with being ordered by this young man.

"Thank you, Dr. Stephen Strange."

Dante shook hands with Stephen Strange again, then walked into Ethan Winters's hospital room and asked all the experts inside to leave...

Just like watching a giant panda.

And aren't the other Resident Evil protagonists unique too.

Who among these people doesn't have some positive enhancement from a bio-virus.

Especially Jill in this Universe, even if put into the Federal Bureau of Investigation Academy, she would be considered a promising talent.

Closing the door, Dante walked towards Ethan's family.

"Good morning, tough guy, your body is fine now, right?"

"Haha, Dante, don't tease me. Fighting is really not something a systems engineer like me should be doing." Ethan smiled easily, then introduced, "This is my wife, Mia."

"You must be Agent Dante. This rescue truly owes a lot to you... I really don't know how to thank you."

"Mrs. Winters, just call me by my name." Seeing Mia about to get up, Dante quickly stepped forward to stop her, "As long as you are all safe, then everything I did was meaningful."

No sooner had Dante finished speaking than Rose, who had been in a deep sleep, suddenly opened her eyes, seemingly sensing his presence.

In those innocent eyes... there was actually deeply hidden calculation and hatred.

Dante frowned, as if remembering something, and then a gentle smile appeared on his lips.

"May I hold this adorable little princess?"

"Of course... Yes, support her little bottom with one hand and her neck with the other."

Under Mia's guidance, Dante held the newborn baby in his arms.

And with this contact, the black god consciousness was instantly activated.

Dante grinned.

As expected...

He lowered his head and whispered into the newborn's ear.

"Don't hide, Evelyn."
