Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2

In front of the big Dickas elevator, which was as huge as a city gate, Kara put the two talismans together and raised them high above her head.

The pyroxene amber in the center of the talisman gave off a pale golden light. Echoing this, the heads of the two statues guarding the golden tree on the big elevator also lit up with golden light. The two statues that originally stood opposite each other slowly turned towards Li You and his party.

Amidst the vibrations and roars of the "ground", the smoke and dust stirred up, and the large elevator slowly lifted up and moved to higher places.

When light began to appear at the end of the elevator shaft, the speed of the large elevator gradually slowed down. Finally, in the sunlight shining overhead, the elevator made a "rumbling" sound and reached the highest point.

What appeared in front of everyone at this moment was a piece of golden land. Golden trees, grass, and the golden royal city in the distance. The golden tree, which was closer than ever, shed light, brightening the sky and even faintly eclipsing the sun.

"This is the Yatan Plateau. It is not a souvenir like Shadow Yatan, but the land that truly carries the royal city." Kara introduced to everyone. Everyone except Li You looked at the golden tree in the distance. and the majestic royal city.

"Is that the capital of the Golden Dynasty?" V looked at the faintly visible city wall in the distance, "It looks really amazing."

"No, what you see is just the outer wall." Li You said, "The real royal city is at the foot of the golden tree... farther away."

"Moreover, the current royal city is consistent with the overall style of the junction area."

Everyone understood now: "I see, it's pretty shabby, right?"

Next to Kara, Melina appeared. She looked in the direction of the golden tree, silently thinking about something.

Kara naturally noticed her and said, "Don't worry, I remember our agreement. After returning from the volcano, I told Master that we would go to the Royal City."

Melina nodded to her: "Thank you. I'm not worried, I believe in your promise. I just... miss you a little."

"I was born at the foot of the Golden Tree, and it was there that I accepted the mission given to me by my mother. But now, I have lost everything.

"...I must know the reason why I can continue to live even if my physical body is burned down and turned into a body in the form of a soul."

The conversation between the two did not hide from others, and Li You also heard their conversation. But when it came to Melina's issue, he couldn't get a word in.

Thanks to the old thief's fragmented narrative, many of Melina's stories were unclear. The information Li You had was also fragmented, so he would not speak randomly.

After Melina finished speaking to Kara, she disappeared again, while V looked at the city wall in the distance and said, "Then shall we go over there next, or is the volcano in another direction? It's a long way to go anyway. Come on, Li You, take out the car."

"Ah, about this." Kara suddenly said, "Actually, I have lit up the blessing on the other side of the volcano, and it can be sent directly there."

V: "?"

Yuzu and Aiji: "...?"

V couldn't hold it back anymore and asked, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier? We've traveled a long way in vain?"

Kara replied: "Isn't that because I happened to collect two talismans, so I wanted to try riding on the big lift. I've never been on one before... I'm sorry."

V's expression was obviously distorted, but Li You's expression remained unchanged: "I have known for a long time that you have the blessing point on the volcano side. After all, you can use the Origin Magic Comet Yazler."

The origin magician Yazler is in the Gmir volcano. Kara can learn his magic because of course she has met him. Combined with Kara's statement that she had seen an ancient dragon on the Yatan Plateau, it was obvious that she should have walked up the ancient ruins cliff in the past. As for collecting two talismans, it should be after this.

V on the side was stunned: "?"

"...So why didn't you say anything?"

Li You answered matter-of-factly: "Because I also want to take the big lift?"

V: “…………”

She covered her face hard: "Two lunatics."

Kara looked at Li You and said, "Okay, actually it's more than just that. In order to find Master Yazler, I circled the volcano several times and sucked in countless ash. I just want Master to let you Let’s have a taste of this... No, I want everyone to feel the joy of success after hard work!”

Li You commented seriously: "Although you changed your words, the meaning is basically the same, and you said both sentences completely."

Kara's expression remained unchanged: "What are you talking about, I don't understand."

V had given up communicating with these two people and walked aside to breathe fresh air. And Aggie stood next to her, sighing: "Kara's character has really changed a lot. She used to be... a cold one?"

She deliberately said this to V, and V also knew it. After all, Ai Ji's operation of sending messages from both sides could not be hidden from other people at all. What's more, she herself didn't want to hide it, she just insisted that Li You didn't know, otherwise it wouldn't be fun.

V was a bit hurt by the brain circuits of Li Youkara and his master and apprentice. He felt that the computing power of the chip could not keep up, so he simply asked Aiji: "What was she like before?"

With a smile on his face, Aiji said, "Well, let me tell you about this..."

The two of them chatted on the sidelines.

"... Well, actually I'm not just here to take the big elevator." Li You was still arguing with Kara, "I came up from here to pick up something along the way."

Kara guessed something: "Could it be..."

"It's the amber starlight I mentioned before." Li You nodded, "As far as I know, that thing is nearby."

"Oh..."

Seeing Kara's eyes wandering around him again, Li You immediately stopped her sternly: "Stop! Don't mention someone to me!"

Kara smiled and said, "I haven't said anything yet, Master."

"Forget it, since we all have ulterior motives, let's call it a draw this time."

Li You had a blank expression: "How do you know it's a draw?"

"Don't I have to do the teleportation?"

"That won't work either!"

...

After another round of arguing, the group finally started to move. They moved along the road leading to the royal city and found a blessing next to the fork in the road ahead.

After that, Li You asked everyone to search in the vicinity and finally found an inconspicuous valley.

There is a gray-black statue in the valley, depicting a mother holding a child, and the amber starlight is just below the statue. In the small valley, there are also many holy blood wood buds.

This statue and these wood buds are all vaguely related to Michaela. Others may not notice it, but Kara noticed something wrong at a glance: "These things are..."

With the character of the old thief, he placed something with such a strong hint next to the amber starlight, which is basically certain to express something. So it's not surprising that some people would suspect that this piece of amber starlight is actually related to Michaela.

But Li You couldn't be sure of the truth. Anyway, Michaela is dead now, and he has nowhere to ask even if he wants to get to the bottom of it. Or maybe Tolina will know?

But Li You didn't plan to ask Tolina. Anyway, even if this amber starlight is really related to Michaela, and Michaela really has some conspiracy in this matter, it will not be realized now.

So he just nodded to Kara: "Don't worry. Collect these holy bloodwood buds, after all, they are rare materials."

As for the amber starlight, it is a sharp and slender fragment with a dark blue base and amber light inside.

This thing is said to be an illusory fragment produced by the passing starlight. According to the stargazers of the Kalia royal family, it is the starlight that controls fate, and the amber starlight represents the fate of the gods.

Therefore, the special potion made with this amber starlight can turn demigods into puppets...at least in theory.

"That bastard Servis actually wanted to trick me into drinking this. He really thinks highly of me...No, did he see part of my power?"

Although he didn't want to mention Servis, before handing the amber starlight to him, Li You must consider whether there would be any problem. Apart from anything else, if he fell out with Lani for a bottle of potion that he didn't know whether it could be used, it would be a big loss.

Although Servis didn't think of giving it to Lani this time, he wanted to give it to Li...

"Tsk, this damn Nantong is really disgusting."

After a little pause, Li You put the Amber Starlight into the system backpack, and Kara and the others had already collected all the Holy Blood Wood Buds.

"Let's go, it's time to go to the volcano."

...

Gmir Volcano.

This volcano is located to the west of the Yatan Plateau and the north of Lake Lienia, covering a considerable area.

The volcano is famous for its sharp and irregular rock walls and the dark and unsettling sky. After the Shattered War, this characteristic became even stronger. Just by approaching, you can smell the sulfur smell in the air.

The Volcano Mansion is located on the top of the Gmir Volcano. Even in the eyes of many insiders, it is a terrifying area that should not be approached.

However, in the eyes of Li You and his party who have already climbed the Spiked Mountain, the Gmir Volcano is still a lot worse. As for the Volcano Mansion, although they did not come to kick the door and cause trouble this time, it is almost the same in essence.

——The blessing on the road leading to the Gemir volcano.

The golden light lit up, and Li You and his group teleported out.

Li You identified the surrounding environment and the distance from the volcano, and then made a guess: "Is this... the first rest stop?"

"As expected of a master, you can tell at a glance." Kara echoed beside him.

"Don't talk about those useless things. Isn't this the entrance to the volcano road?" Li You looked at her, "You should have lit up the blessing deeper, right?"

Kara turned her head away: "There are no other blessings."

Li You: "... Are you serious about what you just said?"

"No, I'm not kidding." Kara was a little helpless, "There are really no deeper blessings. Although I have lit up other blessings in the volcano area, they are all in the other direction of the boiling river, not in the deeper part of the volcano."

Li You stared at her for a long time before confirming that she was telling the truth: "Okay, I understand."

Although this is somewhat inconsistent with Li You's game experience, it is not an exception. From the Dark Souls world to the Junction, he has encountered many similar situations, that is, there were bonfires/blessings in the game, but not in the real world.

This type is mainly based on the bonfires and blessings that are opened after defeating the BOSS. For example, in the classic Dark Souls III, from the Dragon Hunting Armor to the Big Library, there is actually only one bonfire.

So in the real world, blessing points are much less than in the game.

"In that case, then..."

Li You raised his hand and summoned the recently repaired armed floating vehicle.

Looking at the flying car that fell from the sky and stopped steadily in front of everyone, Kara couldn't hide her surprise: "This is...master, the flying car that you deceived in other worlds?"

"What are you talking about? This is a gift from a friend!" Li You was annoyed, "Why do you think I'm like a certain bald man who goes around deceiving people?"

"Sorry, sorry, slip of the tongue." Kara said, reaching out to touch the open door of the floating car, "Although magic is very good, future technology is also good!"

"Ah, that's right! Master, you promised to show me the robot that could turn into Mersemer last time! You almost got it!"

"Okay, okay, I didn't forget, get in the car." Li You waved his hand, "The prosthetic puppet is inside, but it is responsible for driving the float vehicle, so don't mess with it."

"Got it!" Carla's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she jumped onto the floating car.

Li You and others also got on the bus one after another, and only V was left behind.

Kara, who was looking around in the car, noticed her: "Why don't you get up? Are you motion sick?"

V: "...No, I always have a bad feeling about riding in this floating car."

Kara: "?"

Li You: "...Shut up, or I'll take your drink!"

V then spread his hands and jumped into the car. Kara looked at the interaction between the two and Aggie's expression on the side, and guessed something, so she quietly held the Dark Moon Tin Staff in case of any eventuality.

The float vehicle immediately took off and flew towards the Gmir Volcano at a moderate speed.

During the trip, Li You activated the crystal ball system built into the floating vehicle, and the inner wall of the vehicle became as if transparent, showing everything outside. Kara looked at the scenery below and marveled;

Of course, Li You won't be excited about this. He is more concerned about the mess on the road leading to the volcano.

Although the Broken War has passed, some areas of the border still have the aftermath of the war. There are soldiers encamped and patrolling in areas such as Lake Lienia and the Yatan Plateau, and Gmir Volcano has to go further.

Here, the soldiers belonging to the royal city are still engaged in small-scale conflicts with the forces under Rakad.

At this moment, there is a mess below, with scattered corpses and toppled defense facilities, completely looking like a battlefield. Even at this time, two small groups of Golden Tree soldiers could be seen fighting with a metal war machine that looked like a torture tool, the Iron Maiden, but was equipped with wheels and wielded a sickle and a circular saw.

The iron maiden-like metal doll is called the Captive Girl Doll. It is a specialty of the Volcano Mansion. In addition to weapons such as sickles and circular saw spurs, their torsos can actually open and extend their tentacles to capture enemies. Caught and executed.

At this moment, below, there was an unlucky soldier who failed to evade the grasp of the puppet and was dragged into the torso like a torture instrument, and a shrill scream came from it.

Although cruel, the other soldiers were not frightened. Instead, they surrounded him and tried to destroy the doll.

Unfortunately, they were out of power and were all blown away by the doll's rotation, which also left scars of varying depths on the doll's torso.

After getting rid of this group of soldiers, the girl doll continued to wander on the road here, waiting for the next group of enemies, or prey.

Li You saw all this but did not intervene. The conflict here is the follow-up to the Shattered War. Both sides have actually lost the meaning of fighting and are just trapped in the war.

The soldiers from the royal city forces looked human-like, but in fact they had already lost their hearts. Even if they went to help them, they would only get weapons wielded in return.

"...But you see, they seem to be collecting the corpses of their companions?" Ai Ji pointed to a place below, where there were many soldiers from the royal city, scattered and kneeling beside the corpses of their companions, playing with something.

"Do you really think so?" Li You snapped his fingers, and the scene there immediately zoomed in, showing the details below, and then everyone else was shocked.

The soldiers played with the corpses not to restrain them, but to tear off pieces of meat from the corpses and feed them into their mouths.

"Uh...!!"

"They are actually...eating the corpses of their comrades?"

V was stunned when he saw it, and Li You said: "So, they have lost their minds. Even if they did, the forces in the royal city and us are not on the same front. Instead, they are likely to become enemies in the future, so I will not save."

The float car continued to move forward, and on the road below, in addition to the Iron Maiden dolls and soldiers from the royal city, there were other messy things mixed together.

Rhea Lucalia's six-armed puppet soldiers and bird-headed puppet soldiers were fighting against the limbed nobles who came from nowhere. There were also demi-humans sneaking around on the edge of the battlefield, ready to make a move.

The scene here is simply like a microcosm of the broken war.

The aerial vehicle flew by. Although the optical camouflage was turned on, it was still noticed by the demihumans below. They were chirping and trying to knock the float down with stones thrown from their slings.

Of course, these stones were bounced off by the aerial vehicle's shield and had no effect.

Li You glanced at V and raised the corners of his mouth.

V didn't respond.

The hovercraft continued to move forward and began to rise in altitude, following the volcano upwards, but was discovered by bird-headed puppet soldiers on the way. This type of puppet soldier has the ability to fly for a short time. They flew in the air and threw flame pots and explosive crystals at the hovercraft.

Similarly, although these things are a little stronger than stones, they cannot break through the shield of the hovercraft and were all bounced away.

Li You glanced at V again.

V: "..."

In the process of increasing altitude, they also encountered random arrows shot by puppet soldiers and crossbow sniping by soldiers from the royal city, but unfortunately they were not a threat to the hovercraft.

Seeing the top of the mountain in front of them, Li You finally spoke and said to V: "How is it? There was no accident this time, right? How could these rags break through the defense of the hovercraft!"

V raised her eyebrows: "I know the performance of this hovercraft better than you, so... um, what do you think?"

She pointed to the side, and Li You turned his head and saw a huge rock wrapped in purple magic flying towards the hovercraft!

Li You: “!!?”

“How is it possible——!!”

V sighed: “I knew it.”
