The beautiful daily life of Black Light Salted Fish

"Hey! How are you?"

Miss Watson slung her gun over her shoulder and waved at a brown bear.

"Roar?"

Brother Bear shook his head, as if he recognized human weapons, turned around and ran away.

"Huh~? Don't go! Let me hug you..." Miss Watson's face was full of regret. She had originally thought about riding a bear, but wild animals were still too disobedient. I don’t know how Russians raise bears. Maybe next time, I can prepare some food first? She ran two steps quickly and jumped onto the short slope more than ten meters away.

There are no paths to walk in the mountains and forests. You have to jump between mounds of earth and rocks. Only when you encounter some relatively gentle terrain can you walk normally. In order to blend in with the environment, Miss Watson specially changed into a snow camouflage uniform - there was no one around, and she started to stop pretending. Why do you need to wear more clothes when it's cold? Can some snow freeze me?

If you wear one more piece, I lose!

It was now the second day after entering the mountains. Except for confirming the location and direction, Ms. Watson spent most of the time running at high speed. She had traveled more than 2 kilometers. If the terrain hadn't been too rugged and she had to spend time hunting wild animals to replenish energy, she might have crossed the country.

Miss Watson even bought an extra pair of boots just to be on the safe side.

Before heading back to Albania, Miss Watson had already marked the location of the "village" on a paper map based on Mrs. Viper's hard drive data, and planned the starting point, landmarks and route. The entire journey is now nearing the end. If the terrain ahead is in good condition, we may be able to reach our destination smoothly in the afternoon.

What she wants is naturally the "fungal root".

In the "Resident Evil 8" game information, fungal roots are described as "can absorb and store the genes, memories and consciousness of organic life forms, and imprint them into the host that combines and symbiosis with them." The host that lives in symbiosis with fungal roots: the game villain "Miranda" also kidnapped the protagonist Ethan Winters' several-month-old daughter Rose for this reason, hoping to resurrect herself who died in 1919. ’s 10-year-old daughter Eva.

Yes, 1919.

Miranda, a peasant woman from Eastern Europe who was born in the late 19th century, has successfully survived with the help of fungal roots until she was killed by the protagonist Ethan in 2021. The protagonist Ethan, who had done something important, was also seriously injured. In the end, he resolutely chose to take the bomb, sacrifice himself, and die together with the fungal root, leaving his wife and daughter crying on the plane.

Of course... Ethan, as early as in "Resident Evil 7", was infected by fungal roots and turned into a non-human being. He may not really die. But in any case, Miss Watson was not going to let this story happen.

If Ethan's family can live happily and live an ordinary life, this may be the best outcome.

The point is, that fungal root was blown up! ! !

What a waste! ! ! !

Miss Watson has an intuition that the fungal roots can allow her black light body to usher in a comprehensive evolution. If nothing else, let’s talk about the transformation ability of the goddess Miranda. This woman can completely transform into a certain person by extracting DNA. For example, Ethan's wife Mia, given that Miranda himself is a cult leader, not to mention the acting skills honed over the past hundred years, has not been noticed by Ethan's "husband" for several months; in addition, Miranda Da can also transform into other forms, such as disguising himself as a godly old woman to spy on the villagers.

So, after absorbing the fungal roots, can I also unlock the iconic "transformation ability" of the black light virus?

This is not a simple change from male to female.

Clockwork Man Carl Laprecht Cronan, Viper Lady Ophelia Sarkestein, and Spider-Woman Jessica Drew can transform themselves into their appearance, possessing nearly A perfect, impeccable new identity. At that time, you can use this to carry out operations. With those absorbed memory fragments, it is not impossible to break into Hydra.

Moreover, the fungal roots have been growing under the soil for long enough that the "branches" at the top have completely spread. It is no exaggeration to say that any living thing that dies on this land will have its consciousness, memory, and genes absorbed by the fungal roots beneath the land. According to the game settings, the fungal root has been forming for at least hundreds of years, so how many people has it absorbed in total?

Isn’t this what Silent Hill needs?

If Silent Hill can get them, will I be able to have the highest level of authority in an instant? Although Alessa's evil little sister said that Silent Hill wanted souls, Miss Watson didn't know whether memory, genes and consciousness were linked to "souls", but no matter what, she had to absorb the fungal roots.

If this thing really comes to pass, it will definitely be a huge profit.

As the journey neared the end, all the surrounding wild animals had disappeared. Miss Watson used all her strength to squeeze her chest out from the narrow stone gap, and the scene in front of her suddenly became extremely cheerful. A huge basin surrounded by mountains, a ferocious Baroque castle is located in the front right, and among the mountains and forests, sparse low roofs can be seen vaguely. The sky seemed to be covered with a veil, dark and depressing, as if it was another world.

Start choosing.

Where to go first?

Miss Watson put one foot on the stone wall and raised the telescope.

From a safety point of view, there is a high probability that you will be unconscious when you absorb the fungal roots. Therefore, of course, there should be no enemies present, including potential enemies. It is best to kill them all. But to be honest, the land ahead is full of enemies. If you encounter Miranda who is "privately visiting" again... this is not a game plot. There is an awakened little sister Rose. Use your will to resist to forcibly weaken the villain. Facing Miranda in her prime, I'm afraid there's no need to waste bullets. Just use the black light virus to either suck her out or be sucked out by her.

Well, fast forward directly to the final battle.

I have to think of a way, but I can't confront Miranda from the beginning.

Looking at it, his eyes focused on a large house on the left side of the cliff.

Benevento House.

Let’s get rid of the “Puppet Master” first.

Mother Goddess Miranda has many minions under her command, first of all, the four major lords who have been transformed by fungal root products, and secondly, there is an army of werewolves. The kobolds are stationed in a medieval fortress to the southwest of the village, but a few are scattered throughout the area. Although they are also the product of failed "virus fusion", they are more intelligent than the Raccoon City zombies. Not only do they know basic team combat, but they can also use various cold weapons including bows and arrows. Although the werewolves were not strong individually, they were numerous in number. If they didn't attack quickly enough and one of them howled, Miranda might be alarmed.

For Miss Watson, among the four lords, the puppet master Donna Benevento is the easiest one to deal with.

The Puppet Master's attacks mainly rely on mechanical puppets and psychedelic pollen to make people harm themselves in hallucinations or fall into traps. But this kind of pollen will most likely have no effect on the black light virus. Even if Miss Puppet Master can control a few detached dolls, it won't cause much trouble. As for her true body, her mutated body is comparable to that of a mortal. She is not at all physically strong like other lords. She is a type that can be taken away with a knife in the forehead. Moreover, both of Donna's parents died when she was young, and her family declined, which made her very afraid of social interaction. In such a poor place, she naturally could only become more withdrawn as she grew older.

This means no friends to help.

Even werewolves don't like to get close to her...

Clap!

The heel broke a branch.

Miss Watson was walking in the dense forest. The snow here was much thicker than outside, and there was also a gloomy atmosphere lingering there. She knew what it was, so she silently put away the gun and took out the military ax from her body. Sure enough, after walking for more than ten meters, there was sudden movement at my feet. Withered hands poked out of the snowdrift, and then, the upper body of a mummy slowly crawled out, but not long after it appeared, it received an ax on the forehead.

"Uh......"

Weird sounds came from all around. Apparently there was more than one mummy buried in this place, and they were all crawling out of the snow one after another at this moment. Miss Watson pushed the fungus-infected creatures back into the ground one by one, just like taking a walk after dinner. After walking this section, she turned around and saw two rows of twisted corpses. She immediately began to regret. Why didn't she bring a camera to take pictures?

Forget it, let’s climb the mountain.

The main road leading to Benevento House was an old bridge, but in view of the possibility of meeting people on the way, Miss Watson simply did not consider taking it. Now that she was under the building, she could just climb up the cliff and appear outside Miss Donna's window. When he took off for a running start, his fingertips touched the rough rock surface and his whole body was immediately firmly attached. Miss Watson once again solemnly thanked Spider-Woman. This climbing ability is much more useful than a mountaineering pickaxe.

As we climbed all the way to the middle of the cliff, snowflakes fell on our shoulders.

Snow ~ flowers fluttering ~ north wind howling ~ howling ~~~

No, I can't sing it.

Miss Watson grinned, wanting to laugh more and more as she crawled. She didn't know what was wrong with her now, but she felt an inexplicable feeling of happiness welling up in her chest.

I'm afraid I'm not crazy, right?

and many more……

This is not right!

She stopped on the cliff and waited for several minutes before the inexplicable surge of emotions began to calm down. Miss Watson slowed down and climbed to the top little by little. As soon as she emerged, she saw hundreds of yellow flowers growing in front of her. Just like the original sun staircase, there is a faint dust on the surface of the stamens spreading around.

This is where hallucinogenic pollen comes from.

Miss Watson took two steps closer with an expressionless expression, picked up a flower and threw it into her mouth. For a moment, the picture in his eyes fluctuated like ocean waves, but soon returned to calm. The black light virus in the body continued to work, suppressing all subtle effects. She chewed a few more ones, and after confirming that there would be no more abnormal reactions, she turned her attention to the Benevento mansion in front of her.

There are dead branches and leaves, and there is a turbid waterfall behind it.

The roar of the water and the light snowfall provided perfect cover. Miss Watson took two steps up the wall, fixed the dangling objects on her body with tentacles, and slowly opened the west window.
