96: A destined showdown!

And!

What Alice didn't know at this moment was that she and her group had already been targeted by Augustus.

Alice had already killed dozens of Abnormal Zombies with her powerful superpowers, and such a terrifying record made it hard not to attract attention.

It should be known that after the second mutation, the Abnormal Zombie's overall attributes had greatly improved; their strength was such that even in a one-on-one fight against a Licker, they would hardly be at a disadvantage.

But even so, Alice still managed to take down dozens of them, which showed that Alice had clearly become a threat in Augustus's eyes.

"Annoying ants, all of you should die!"

At this moment, Alice didn't realize that someone was secretly watching them. Alice and the others had already found Angela according to Dr. Ashford's guidance and were heading towards the evacuation point Dr. Ashford had mentioned.

However, even Ashford didn't notice one thing at this time: his little actions had actually been detected by Umbrella Corporation's security captain, Cain, who was sent to meet him.

Ashford's behavior, in Cain's view, was completely meaningless, and Ashford's clandestine actions were also something he could not tolerate.

Therefore, he decided to immediately execute his other plan: to test Nemesis's abilities!

Nemesis, originally transformed from Matt, had now been fully modified. This time, the company sent him not only to meet Ashford but also to test Nemesis's strength.

Of course!

The most important point was to lure Alice into a battle with Nemesis. After all, only Alice and Matt escaped from the Hive, and Dr. Isaacs injected both with the t-virus precisely to compare whose abilities were stronger and who was more destructive between Alice and Nemesis!

At this moment, Ashford was fully focused on the computer in front of him, but suddenly, the sound of a gun being cocked behind him brought him back to reality.

Ashford first raised his hands, then slowly asked,

"Who is it?"

"Doctor, you seem a bit restless."

"Raccoon City has become the company's testing ground, and your actions are going against the company. You are doing something very dangerous."

The next second, Cain pressed the muzzle of his pistol against Ashford's back, his voice cold.

"Dangerous?"

"I just want to find my daughter."

"Since you won't help, I can only let others help me find her."

After the initial shock, Ashford turned around, slowly lowered his hands, and looked at Cain with a calm expression.

"Daughter?"

"Doctor, you are our company's important asset. Currently, the company doesn't have extra manpower to search for your daughter."

"Her fate is already sealed. Why bother remembering a dead person?"

Cain shook his head, looking at Ashford with a cold-blooded expression.

"Dead person?"

"My daughter isn't dead; she's still alive, and she's doing well."

"Look, the people I found have already located Angela. As long as they bring Angela over, we can leave here."

Hearing this, Ashford immediately became a bit agitated and quickly picked up the laptop next to him to show Cain.

However, what Ashford didn't notice at this moment was that when Cain saw Alice's figure, a hint of joy suddenly flashed in the depths of his eyes.

He was just wondering where to find Alice to make her duel Nemesis, but he didn't expect that Ashford had already found Alice first and even had Alice help him find his daughter. This immediately made Cain look at Ashford with new respect.

So, the next second, Cain directly looked at Ashford and asked,

"Where are they now?"

"What are you going to do?"

Hearing Cain's sudden question, Ashford's heart tightened, but for his daughter's sake, he didn't answer Cain's question immediately.

And when Cain saw Ashford's worried expression, he immediately tapped Ashford's head with the butt of his pistol, warning him,

"If you want your daughter to return safely to your side, you'd better answer my question, Doctor."

Looking at Cain's warning expression, Ashford fell silent.

He didn't know whether he should tell Cain Alice and the others' current location. After all, his daughter was also with Alice, and if Cain did anything dangerous, it could very likely harm his daughter.

But he couldn't ignore Cain's threat. After all, although he was the founder of the t-virus, he was merely a disabled researcher.

"They are at..."

After a few seconds, Ashford made his choice and reported Alice and the others' current location.

And Cain, having received the location information, sneered and walked out without looking back.

A few minutes later!

Somewhere in Raccoon City, a monstrous creature nearly two meters tall, clad in a tight-fitting long suit, suddenly moved. It held a Gatling gun and strode purposefully in a certain direction.

Meanwhile, at the Umbrella's team base in Raccoon City, Cain began observing the situation through Nemesis's perspective. Through the display screen, Cain sneered and said,

"Yes, keep going like this."

"Let him and her have a big battle; that way, it will be easier for us to collect more accurate data."

"This big guy should give his old acquaintance quite a surprise."

As Cain's words fell, Nemesis on the display screen gradually approached the area where Alice and the others were.

Currently, in Alice's team, besides Angela, only Jill Valentine and Carlos remained.

As Jill Valentine's good friend, Payton was unfortunately bitten by a zombie while hiding with Jill Valentine in the church and was eventually executed by Jill Valentine.

Now, besides Angela, whether it was Alice, Jill Valentine, or Carlos, all they wanted was to leave Raccoon City!

Having come this far, they had clearly understood that Raccoon City was beyond saving; this city... was beyond saving.

At this moment, Alice and the others had no idea that danger was approaching. Angela, the only girl in the group, was protected behind Alice and asked innocently,

"Is Dad really waiting for me?"

"Am I really going to see Dad soon?"

Angela's small face broke into a bright smile. Ever since her mother died, her father, Ashford, was her only living relative in the world.
