97: Alice vs. the Chaser!

"Of course it's real."

"Little sister, you'll see your dad very soon."

Jill Valentine said, standing beside Angela.

"That's right, very soon."

Carlos was at the very back of the group, covering their retreat while also keeping an eye on their surroundings.

"Mhm."

Seeing that the older brother and sister, with whom she had gradually become familiar, both said so, young Angela nodded heavily.

However, at that moment, something unexpected happened!

Angela suddenly saw a figure standing at the corner ahead. At that moment, the young girl didn't even think much, nor did she carefully try to figure out why her father was standing. She instinctively called out,

"Dad!!!"

Angela's sudden shout immediately drew the attention of Alice and the other two. They all turned their gaze to Angela, and then followed her line of sight to a corner ahead!

"That's..."

Almost instinctively, Alice sensed the coming danger. She immediately reached out her arms, embraced Angela, and then dove to one side.

At the same time.

Just as Alice fell to one side, holding Angela, Jill Valentine and Carlos also reacted. They immediately turned and dove to the ground.

Rat-a-tat-tat!

The next second, terrifying bullets poured from the corner. The fearsome firepower directly turned into a line of fire, violently tearing apart the cars and walls around Alice and the others!

At the same time, seeing Alice and the others evade his attack, Nemesis walked directly out from behind cover. While continuously firing, he also began to advance towards where Alice and the others had fallen.

"Damn it, what the hell is that?!"

"What kind of monster is this!!!"

By this point, Jill Valentine and Carlos had also reacted. While cursing and dodging the bullet fire, they ran towards a distant tall building, intending to escape Nemesis's attack.

Alice, who had reacted before them, had already sprinted tens of meters away with Angela in her arms. The situation just now was too dangerous; even if she had wanted to warn Jill Valentine and Carlos, she couldn't.

She could only instinctively, after diving to protect Angela, take the latter and flee without looking back.

This was also because Alice was stronger now. If it hadn't been for Angela's cry, even if she had reacted, she would have sustained considerable injuries.

"How could this be?"

"That wasn't Dad. Dad didn't come."

Angela was terrified at this point. Although she was still held in Alice's arms, the look of horror on her face still lingered.

"Will my dad still come?"

"What was that monster just now? My dad won't be in any danger, will he?"

Angela's face was still filled with deep terror, but despite this, her heart still worried about her father, Ashford.

Facing this, Alice was at a loss for words. Her thoughts raced. The monster that had just appeared was clearly after them. Although she didn't know the specific target, it definitely had a purpose.

However, with the city's transportation paralyzed, who could so accurately locate them and dispatch such a powerful monster?

Umbrella!

Almost instinctively, Alice came to that conclusion!

As for whether Ashford was involved, or if he helped Umbrella provide their location, Alice didn't know, and she didn't want to think about it. If it truly was as she suspected, it would be too cruel for Angela!

Of course!

It was also possible that Angela's father, Ashford, was not involved. So, their most important task now was to quickly reach the previously mentioned rendezvous point. Then, everything would become clear.

"Don't worry, your dad should be fine. We still need to go find him."

Alice carefully soothed Angela's emotions. She was now moving quickly with Angela in her arms. Although she had a little girl like Angela with her, Alice seemed to feel no weight at all, moving extremely fast. In just the blink of an eye, she had already moved ten meters forward.

And during their escape, Alice once again reunited with Jill Valentine and Carlos. This was their unspoken understanding; they had known the final destination from the beginning. Their current reunion was merely an inevitable occurrence.

"Did you get rid of that monster?"

"I haven't seen the monster chasing us yet."

"Good. Angela, stay with you two. If the monster reappears, I'll draw it away."

When Alice and Jill Valentine met again, they quickly decided on their next plan in a few words.

As her words fell, Alice finally released her arm holding Angela, and instead motioned for Angela to follow Jill Valentine.

Angela naturally had no objection to Alice's arrangement. Both Alice and Jill Valentine were people she could trust. Alice having her follow Jill Valentine was, of course, for her safety.

Seeing that Alice and Jill Valentine had already formulated a plan, Carlos, who was beside them, called out,

"Let's go."

However, the moment his words fell, heavy breathing came from ahead, followed by slow but powerful footsteps.

Alice immediately looked forward and saw a huge figure slowly walking towards them in the middle of the road directly in front of them.

"Damn it, how did it appear again?"

"Are we being targeted?"

"How did this monster find us so quickly?"

At this moment, seeing Nemesis reappear, Carlos's face changed dramatically. He immediately raised his gun, ready to fire at Nemesis.

But just then, a hand suddenly reached out and pushed down Carlos's gun barrel. It was Alice. Upon seeing Nemesis's arrival, she immediately stepped forward to the front of the group.

The next second, after waving to Jill Valentine and Carlos behind her, Alice immediately charged towards Nemesis.

Bang bang bang!

Rat-a-tat-tat~

In an instant, gunshots erupted. Alice directly engaged Nemesis in a chaotic battle, holding him in place.

And seeing that the battle had begun on Alice's side, Jill Valentine immediately picked up Angela with one arm and ran with Carlos towards a nearby street.

Their current location was not far from the evacuation point. As long as they brought Angela there, and as long as Ashford kept his word, they would be able to leave Raccoon City.

Of course!

Everything depended on the plan going smoothly, but at this moment, neither Alice nor Jill Valentine knew that Augustus, hiding in the shadows, had already targeted them, and also the Umbrella Corporation squad led by Cain.

Now Augustus needed the entire city as a sacrifice. How could he possibly allow anyone to leave Raccoon City?
