Main text:

On the evening of March 29th, Luo Quan organized a unique premiere.

From the filming of Resident Evil 1 to its release, there wasn't much promotion, let alone a premiere.

And now, Resident Evil 2 can be considered a globally famous IP; major theater chains in the US are fighting to promote it, and many film critics are waiting to join in the fun.

But this time, Luo Quan didn't invite too many film critics to the premiere; instead, she invited hardcore fans of Resident Evil from all over the world.

In the name of a premiere, she held a carnival.

The gift Luo Quan prepared for the fans was actually the behind-the-scenes of the movie filming, and she also let the main cast wear their movie costumes to come on stage and interact with the fans.

Not to mention anything else, when Alice and Jill came out, the cheers from the audience were enthusiastic and surging.

If you were to choose the sexiest look of Luo Quan on the big screen, it would definitely be Alice.

Just that cheongsam revealing snow-white long legs already made countless fans' imaginations run wild, not to mention she could perform various high-difficulty actions, such as backflips, triple kicks in the air, and dual-wielding Desert Eagles to blow up zombie heads.

This simply satisfies all the fantasies boys have about their other half: beautiful, sexy, and with off-the-charts combat power.

So after Luo Quan came out, it's no wonder the fans were so excited.

By comparison, the response to the protagonists of the second installment was slightly more lukewarm, after all, everyone didn't know them yet.

But they would know them soon.

With the end of this special premiere, when midnight struck, marking the arrival of March 30th, Resident Evil 2 was officially released.

The fans who attended the premiere didn't leave either; they started watching the movie right there, which can be considered a gift Luo Quan gave to these lucky hardcore fans.

The movie started with a recap of the previous events.

In the first installment, the scenes of the STARS team fighting zombies in the underground Hive flashed back over and over again, quickly helping the fans recall the plot.

Ten seconds later, the screen finally focused on the protagonist, Alice.

Like the beginning of the first installment, Alice still gave everyone a treat at the beginning of the second.

After being captured by people from the Umbrella Corporation, she had been in a coma, being studied by countless people in white coats.

And when she woke up, the laboratory had already become dim and dilapidated.

Through the faint light, one could see Alice covered with a white sheet, lying on the experimental table.

Her whole body was inserted with various needles, looking quite creepy.

Amidst a scream, Alice pulled out the needles on her body one by one.

Standing on the ground again, the white sheet on her body slid off quietly.

"Whoa!"

Seeing this, the fans immediately let out surprised and excited shouts.

However, because the light was really too faint, even if the white sheet slid off, it was impossible to see clearly at all.

In the darkness, one could only vaguely see Alice's perfect body contours.

Those curves were like rolling green mountains, peaks gathering, waves raging.

This scene, because of Alice's beautiful body to the extreme and the hazy artistic conception of light and shadow interlaced, became quite artistically beautiful.

In the darkness, Alice squatted down, felt for the cloth, and tied it back on her body.

Next, she followed the emergency evacuation signs of the laboratory and walked toward the exit, finding a patient gown to change into along the way.

Through the light, Alice discovered that many places in the laboratory were covered with blood and bullet holes, indicating that a massacre had occurred here.

The bodies were gone, meaning they had all turned into zombies.

Looking at the dim road ahead, it seemed like a zombie could pounce out at any time.

Eerie music sounded, and the tense atmosphere immediately made the fans' heartbeats start to accelerate.

As a thriller, Resident Evil is well-known both inside and outside the industry for its atmosphere rendering.

And the duty of a thriller is to arrive when everyone is unprepared.

Now everyone thinks a zombie will come out, but Luo Quan went the opposite way, letting Alice walk out of the exit safely.

Leaving the dim laboratory, the world immediately became bright, but the entire city had completely changed its appearance.

Vehicles lay scattered on the road and on the side of the road, streetlights were crooked, and newspapers were flying everywhere.

As the camera pulled back, the fans discovered that it wasn't just this area; the entire city had fallen into chaos.

The scene shifted to the entrance of the Raccoon City police station.

Jill, wearing a blue vest, walked into the police station with heroic spirit, looking at all the chaos before her.

The camera gave a shot to the newspaper on the wall nearby, enough for the fans to quickly browse the main content:

"STARS team members temporarily resigned to rest, team member Chris and others went to Europe."

And Jill, who was temporarily resting, appeared here, naturally to deal with the chaos in front of her.

The entire Raccoon City had seen a large number of cases of civilians suddenly attacking others, and the police station had already been filled with these criminals.

But Jill knew that these were actually zombies, and those civilians attacked by zombies would also quickly turn into zombies.

After she came out of the underground Hive, she told the police chief about this, but the chief didn't believe them at all, instead thinking they were too nervous and gave all the surviving team members a vacation.

Chris didn't know where he got the news about the Umbrella Corporation and went to Europe alone to investigate.

And Jill stayed in Raccoon City until the virus completely spread.

At this time, Jill saw a handsome police officer nearby, who was struggling to fight a criminal who had already turned into a zombie, wanting to subdue him.

Jill fired directly, hitting the zombie between the eyebrows.

"They are no longer human, you must deal with them like this."

Jill looked at this new police officer and reminded him seriously.

"Hello, my name is Gao Liang, a police officer who just came to report to Raccoon City." Gao Liang introduced himself to Jill.

It was also during this time that the zombies in the police station finally lost control and began to attack the police; more and more police were bitten and gradually turned into zombies.

"This... what is the situation?"

Gao Liang witnessed all this happening and showed a surprised expression.

"This is all the fault of the Umbrella Corporation's virus. They, and even this city, are beyond saving."

Jill said, taking Gao Liang to the gun room, bringing enough guns and ammunition, preparing to leave the city before it got dark.

However, when the two arrived at the city's entry and exit checkpoints, they found that it had already been blocked by government troops. They were ordered to ensure the virus would not spread, and all survivors could only camp here and could not leave.

"Let's go, go back to the city."

Seeing this, Jill planned to leave directly.

"Why?" Gao Liang didn't quite understand.

As soon as the words fell, a shrill scream came from the crowd gathered around the checkpoint.

A chubby middle-aged man suddenly turned into a zombie and hugged a woman, biting her until she was covered in blood.

Then, one after another, zombies that had completed their transformation began to attack the crowd.

The soldiers standing on high ground couldn't tell who was human and who was a zombie, holding their guns and unable to pull the trigger for a long time.

But as the situation gradually spiraled out of control, the military high command finally ordered them to fire indiscriminately.

The massacre began just like that.

And Jill and Gao Liang, who had already left the checkpoint, watched helplessly as civilians and zombies all died at the hands of these soldiers.

While denouncing those high-level officials, the two helplessly returned to the city.

On the way, they met Claire, a reporter who came to Raccoon City to find her brother Chris, as well as a dozen other survivors.

According to horror movie conventions, when the crowd and the protagonist group reunite, their death date is also coming soon.

Sure enough, when this crowd took refuge in the church, it didn't take long before they encountered an attack by Lickers.

Jill was no stranger to this kind of monster; when they took the train to leave the Hive, it was this monster that attacked them and almost wiped everyone out.

Originally thought there was only one, but the actual situation was that three of these guys were hanging on the church ceiling.

Soon, a Licker jumped down and rolled the priest away with its tongue.

Other Lickers seemed to have received a signal and also began to kill, with cannon fodder dying miserably one after another.

Although Jill and Gao Liang had superb marksmanship, they only shot two to death.

Just as the last one was pouncing on them, a motorcycle broke through the church glass and descended from the sky; it was Alice, who had already changed her clothes.

On the motorcycle, Alice was in a black leather jacket and jeans, both cool and sexy.

Her strong body stepped on the motorcycle, letting it hit the Licker.

And Alice herself performed a backflip with a perfect arc in mid-air, then landed with one hand on the ground.

Immediately after, she lifted her jacket, pulled two large-caliber police pistols from her waist, and fired at the Licker hit by the motorcycle, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

"Damn, this is too cool!"

"Deserving to be the protagonist, the entrance is perfect."

"This action scene is satisfying as hell."

"I'm exploding!"

The fans let out excited exclamations, and in the movie, Alice's timely appearance helped Jill and her group out of the siege.

Appearing with Alice was also a soldier from the Umbrella Corporation, Carlos.

However, Carlos was an external staff member of the Umbrella Corporation, equivalent to a mercenary. The mission this time was to rescue the experimental personnel and their families of the Umbrella Corporation in Raccoon City.

But they encountered a zombie tide not long after they arrived, and the team members basically all died.

From the information given by Carlos, everyone knew that the military had already planned to nuke the entire Raccoon City.

And they needed to find Dr. William, who had been missing until now; with him, they could contact a helicopter to take everyone away.

At the same time, as a high-level executive of the Umbrella Corporation, Dr. William also held quite a lot of secrets about Umbrella and the T-virus.

If he was found, many secrets could also be unraveled.

However, Raccoon City is so big, aimlessly searching definitely won't work, so everyone prepared to split into two paths.

Alice and Claire went to Dr. William's residence to search.

Carlos, Gao Liang, and Jill went to the Hive laboratory where William conducted research to search.

And this laboratory was exactly the same laboratory Alice left earlier.

The story seemed to have returned to the starting point again.

Night fell, and the real danger descended upon this city with the helicopter drop from the Umbrella Corporation.

Cages were smashed across the city from the air, and inside, covered by black cloth, no one knew what was hidden.

After the two groups separated, they both encountered huge zombie tides on the road, and cannon fodder died one after another.

And just as Jill and her group were very close to the Hive laboratory, she received a call.

It was from a colleague at the police station, saying they suddenly encountered a monster that was hunting down all the police officers, telling Jill to be careful.

As soon as the words fell, explosions and gunfire came from the other end of the phone, followed by screams.

Jill knew he had met with misfortune. Just as she was considering the next plan, a tall humanoid monster wearing a black trench coat and with a ferocious face suddenly appeared on the street at night.

This was the humanoid weapon Nemesis from the Umbrella Corporation, with extremely fast speed and immense strength, and pistols almost couldn't cause any damage to it.

Nemesis headed straight for Jill. In order not to implicate others, Jill chose to run away from the crowd alone, letting Gao Liang go in to find Dr. William.

Carlos couldn't let go, so he also chased after them.

Gao Liang was alone, bracing himself to enter the Hive laboratory, and happened to meet Ada Wong, who also came here to investigate.

Ada Wong claimed to be an FBI agent, ordered to investigate the illegal activities of the Umbrella Corporation.

Gao Liang didn't doubt it, so the two teamed up to go deep into the company.

And on the other side, Alice and Claire, who went to Dr. William's house, also encountered an attack by a tall figure.

It's just that compared to the ferocious Licker, this humanoid weapon was wearing a mask, and its limbs were more agile and coordinated, not much different from a normal person, and its combat power was also stronger.

Obviously, this was a fully completed Tyrant that had already been successfully researched.

And from the look in his eyes under the mask, Alice discovered that he was Ma Te, who had been captured by the Umbrella Corporation with her earlier.

It's just that now one still maintained a human form, while the other had already turned into a monster.

In order to save him, Alice let Claire go to Dr. William's house to search, while she stayed behind alone to deal with Ma Te.

The plot continued to develop. Claire found Dr. William's daughter, Sherry, in his house. Sherry said her mother was still in the laboratory and had just called her not long ago, wanting Claire to take her to find her father and mother.

And outside, Alice finally awakened Ma Te after a fierce fight, letting him regain his memory and humanity.

Alice and her group, having completed the mission, immediately rushed to the Hive research institute to reunite with Gao Liang.

On the way, they encountered Jill being hunted by Nemesis. Ma Te took action, fought with this Nemesis, and finally tore it in half.

It was precisely this shocking scene that made it a famous scene in Resident Evil 2.
