Seeing Javier who saved her, Fong Ling also wanted to thank him, but the hunter's attack came again. She had to dodge once more, and her pistol fell into the hunter's hands.
"Take it!" Javier took out a pistol from his inventory and threw it to Fong Ling. She caught the pistol and, together with Javier, killed the hunter.
"Thanks for saving me! Here, take it back." Fong Ling retrieved her own pistol and returned the other to Javier.
"Keep it. You might need it."
The five hunters were quickly eliminated by the group.
"It's not over yet. Now, witness the power of a true biological weapon," Morpheus said, grinning sinisterly at everyone.
Just as they were celebrating their victory, a loud roar echoed, and an ugly monster emerged from the same direction the hunters had come from.
When Javier saw the creature, information about it appeared instantly in his mind.
The Tyrant T-091 was 7 feet tall. When the T-virus and G-virus were combined, they fused into the TG-virus. A Tyrant model was created using this virus, built with the same technology as the T-103 Tyrant, and given the new designation: T-091.
However, due to the virus's instability, the Tyrant's surface tissue had rotted, and the unique electrical abilities of the TG-virus had failed to manifest. Additionally, its claws had been replaced with tentacles.
T-091 still belonged to the new subspecies of T-103. Despite being considered a failure, it retained formidable attack capabilities. Its tentacles were highly elastic, adaptable, and could attack quickly and violently. However, due to its deterioration, it exhibited stiffness after attacking.
It was riddled with flaws—just like the first experimental Tyrant model.
Bruce and Fong Ling were initially shocked at the sight, but quickly realized this was what Morpheus had referred to earlier.
"Anyway, it's a bioweapon. We have to kill it quickly," Fong Ling said, raising her gun and opening fire. But the Tyrant was far more resilient than standard bioweapons. The bullets had no effect.
"The big lump on its back is the weak point—aim for that!" Javier instructed.
Following his lead, the group noticed a large bulge on the Tyrant's back that resembled a heart.
They circled around and targeted the weak spot. Slowly but surely, they brought the Tyrant down.
"Damn it. A failure is still a failure," Morpheus growled in frustration as he watched the Tyrant fall.
At this point, the wound caused by the grenade was still bleeding. Morpheus was nearing death from the blood loss.
"I've already accepted life and death. Umbrella... and all of you clowns, prepare for my revenge."
With that, Morpheus pulled a vial from his coat—inside was the TG-virus.
TG Virus
Developed by the European division.
As the name implies, it was created by combining the T-virus and G-virus.
Unlike previous variants, in addition to enhancing strength and agility, it granted non-physical abilities.
It could form a difficult-to-penetrate electromagnetic barrier around the host.
This barrier would repel physical attacks, and only extreme force could break through.
Any male injected with the TG-virus would become female.
Tyrant T-091 had also been injected with the TG-virus. Unlike previous Tyrants, the claws had been replaced with chain-like appendages—possibly to reflect the gender transformation.
Morpheus injected himself with the virus. His body immediately surged with electricity, surrounding him in arcs of power.
Meanwhile, Javier and the others found a lifeboat that could accommodate ten people. They began lowering it into the water, preparing to escape from the cruise ship.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps echoed in the distance—sharp and rhythmic, like high heels.
"Are there any survivors here?"
Javier frowned and turned toward the voice.
"Where are you all going? The party's not over yet, is it?"
It had to be said—this wasn't a woman. It was a Tyrant.
"Morpheus?" Bruce said in disbelief.
After injecting the virus, Morpheus underwent a massive transformation.
Despite the mutation, he retained his human intelligence. The synthetic TG-virus allowed him to maintain a humanoid appearance while also gaining the speed and power of a Tyrant.
Now, however, his gender had completely changed—even his voice was feminine.
No one had expected the TG-virus to actually cause gender transformation.
"You have no idea how grand my ideals are—not even that old bastard at Umbrella," Morpheus said furiously.
Obsessed with "beautiful things," Morpheus's ultimate goal was to destroy everything "ugly" and create his perfect world.
A narcissist to the core, he considered himself "the embodiment of perfection." To preserve his youth, he had undergone multiple cosmetic surgeries.
"Bah." Bruce spat in disgust. Seeing this, Morpheus became enraged.
His right hand's claws glowed with electricity, and he launched an attack at Bruce.
"Crap!!" Bruce hadn't expected Morpheus to lash out over something so minor. It seemed this guy had some kind of obsessive-compulsive cleanliness disorder.
Javier quickly loaded explosive rounds into his Magnum and opened fire. Everyone else did too.
But it was no use—the bullets only bounced off Morpheus, making a harsh metallic screech.
"It seems I'm immune to your weapons," Morpheus said proudly as he admired his body.
"How are we supposed to fight this?" Bruce muttered, swallowing hard.
Morpheus was extremely satisfied with his current form. Seeing the shock on their faces, he smirked.
In a flash, he dashed toward Bruce, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him into the air.
"You bastard, how dare you spit?" Bruce kicked and struggled, his face contorting in pain as he started to suffocate.
Javier fired another explosive round from the Magnum. The blast hit Morpheus squarely, causing him to stagger and wounding him.
Seeing this, Morpheus tossed Bruce aside and turned his wrath toward Javier.
