Chapter 573: Earth: The Mysterious Red-Haired Girl
------
Ivan looked at the security cameras with anger while gritting his teeth, his aberrations, direct spawns of Uroboros capable of resisting bullets with ease, to regenerate flesh tissue without any problems, and to even develop supernatural capabilities were all dealt with very easily!
By someone…
"Who… is she?"
Ivan Wesker had been engulfed on his own work and dreams for way too long, especially because he had not delved in many other things, he didn't knew what an Esper exactly was.
He only saw a woman suddenly generated flames and burn his spawns in mere seconds, turning them into charred corpses that quickly were torn apart into black ashes over the floor.
This was something… completely beyond his mind, he had never seen someone wield fire as if it were something like magic.
But this wasn't magic, it was something else, it was the power of an Esper, the ability to use the mind which had evolved into a transcendental level, capable of using psionic powers that could generate natural phenomenon.
This woman, Lucia, was a Pyromancer, a woman capable of generating flames through Pyrokinesis, a mental ability that granted her the power to create flames through her mind energies alone.
She also had other powers, but they were lesser, one of such were things like Telepathy, Far Sight, and more.
"This woman… I cannot let her easily get through us... I have to kill her… She's dangerous, too dangerous." He thought.
Ivan Wesker looked into the slaves he had at his side, all the scientists were already tied by ropes around him, by him, of course, they were his pawns now.
If they were not going to be useful to him anymore through their knowledge, they would be useful to him in other ways.
"All of you will have to sacrifice yourselves for me. But rejoice, you're given the privilege of tasting the power of my glorious godliness, Uroboros!" he laughed.
Ivan suddenly shapeshifted, as from his back, a large appendage emerged, resembling the head of a worm, with spiraling teeth around its mandible, and leaking slime everywhere.
The monstrous worm head moved near the people, taking out a long tongue and inserting it inside the mouths of the people, filling their stomachs with aberrant eggs.
The scientists began to scream in agony as one by one, they were all made into aberrant monsters as the eggs hatched inside their stomachs and merged with their bodies, mutating their bodies into amorphous aberrations beyond human comprehension.
"Now go! Ambush them, distribute yourselves around them, do anything necessary!" he said.
Ivan had a unique ability that could potentially stop all these zombie breaks from ever happening all around the world anymore, the ability to command zombies at will. Indeed, not even his own creations, anything with the Virus Z on it could be controlled by him mentally, issuing orders to their heads.
He was simply put, something like a "King". Thanks to the advanced and evolved strain of the Virus, which had evolved into Uroboros on him, he had such a powerful authority, the entire world was his playground, and every zombie break was most of the time orchestrated by him.
He wanted to create Chaos so the Organization would be kept busy while he continued his investigation, his goal wasn't to conquer the world or something, his goal was to transcend. He was an insane and lunatic man, he only desired to reach the apex of all things, become a god.
Could it be possible?
For him, it was.
After he had consumed and absorbed Uroboros and had evolved with it over the many battles he underwent against Chris and his allies, he had gained countless insights.
The virus itself, Uroboros, seemed to even have developed its own consciousness, and it told him the steps he had to do to continue his path towards evolution.
Unifying with the Mold after it had reached its full maturity was one of them, which was even said by the Virus to be "the other half that will complement it" in some sort of way.
It felt as if this was destiny to Ivan Wesker, the woman named Miranda… she was going to be the one that would become one with him so he could ascend to a god.
He often gained "oracles" from Uroboros, telling him what to do, or even getting glimpses of the future, as if he was foresight. Without realizing it, Ivan Wesker had also begun to develop Esper-like Abilities due to having evolved into such a powerful entity.
"Nobody is going to stop me from achieving perfection… Chris, you're only going to die tonight, and I will make sure that you and your little friend won't go in peace…"
The girl floating inside the flask looked at Ivan from within the water she was submerged. Her crimson-red eyes looked at him expressionless, and devoid of any light.
Ivan noticed she was looking at him, as he looked back and touched the tank lightly…
"Miranda… Don't worry, I will protect you this time…" he said with a lunatic smile.
The girl expressionlessly looked at him, her thoughts, her mind, everything seemed submerged in a constant darkness, she couldn't awaken from it yet, and everything always seemed blurry and fuzzy.
She even lacked consciousness and sentience, and most of what she did was out of reflex, lightly opening her eyes sometimes… and more.
She suddenly touched the flask with her little hand, as if touching the belly of a mother that was carrying her in her womb.
Her hand touched Ivan's hand across the other side of the flask, the man's eyes suddenly opened wide, this small show of affection, which was only a reflex, made him fascinated.
"Ahh…! Miranda… You're eager as well, aren't you? Don't worry, after you fully mature, we will become one, and we'll never feel alone anymore." He said.
…
Chris and Lucia rushed across the Organization's building, rushing upstairs to catch Ivan before he could escape from their grasp.
Although the North Korean army had said that they would attempt to stop him if they were to see him escaping, there was no guarantee they would actually do as they said…
