Everyone followed Zhang Jie's gaze towards the train.
They could see Lee, Mou Gang, Little Fatty, and the middle-aged woman running with all their might, past the train, and along the tracks in the direction they came from.
Their speed clearly showed that they had been terrified by the sudden outbreak of gunfire.
At this point, only their backs could be seen.
Boom!
Then, after the four had moved a hundred meters away from the black mercenary captain, a violent explosion rang out.
Uchiha Gen could clearly sense that the life signatures of the four people in the distance had vanished.
At this moment, Zhang Jie sneered, "See? Those four have been erased by the Main God Space. We talked for a long time earlier, but they didn't take it seriously, couldn't accept reality, thinking this was a movie world, or that they were dreaming."
"Now they've reaped the bitter consequences, haven't they? Everyone only has one life!"
In an instant, Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan, who were still alive, felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
Amidst their fear, there was also a hint of relief, relieved that they hadn't been scared into fleeing by the gunshots, relieved that they were still alive.
At this moment, they deeply realized that they had entered a horror game where they had to struggle for survival.
The right to live, which they had taken for granted, now required all their strength to obtain.
Beside them, Uchiha Gen's expression was calm, his emotions unaffected by this sudden turn of events.
Although he had lived in an era of peace in his previous life and was only twelve years old in this one, he had experienced quite a bit of killing since graduating from the Ninja Academy at the age of ten.
He had long cultivated a calm state of mind in the face of change.
"A slacking big shot?"
At this moment, Uchiha Gen was deep in thought.
Although he had been fighting the mercenary team just now, Uchiha Gen had kept a portion of his attention on Zhang Jie, to prevent him from interfering with his quick score-farming.
Because of this, he was very sure that this person's mental fluctuations had remained stable, and he hadn't made a move against those slacking Reincarnators, which perfectly matched the benevolent persona that the author Zhang Heng had designated for him.
According to Zhang Heng's later settings, the Main God Space was a rehabilitation center for powerful beings, and all Reincarnators chosen to join the Main God Space were reincarnations of powerful individuals.
However, some powerful beings were unwilling to awaken, so they would choose to slack off.
They wouldn't integrate into the team, nor would they unleash their potential; they would seize any opportunity to deliberately fail.
It seemed that the four who had died were exactly like that.
The Main God Space erasing four teammates silenced the Reincarnators for a while.
Then, they continued their actions, tying up all the movie characters.
"Is this the culprit who caused the Resident Evil?"
Finally, Uchiha Gen pointed at the corporate spy Ryan, asking Zhan Lan beside him.
After defeating the mercenaries earlier, he received rewards from the Main God Space: two B-rank side quests and nine thousand reward points.
If all went well, killing this culprit in front of him would also yield rewards.
"That's right."
Zhan Lan nodded in response.
Then, Uchiha Gen casually plunged the Kunai in his hand into Ryan's heart.
As expected, the Main God Space gave Uchiha Gen a reward: a C-rank side quest and 1500 points.
Zhan Lan turned her head away uncomfortably, her face slightly pale, but she didn't say much.
Beside her, Zheng Zha was the same.
Killing a villain didn't disgust them; what they found unsettling was the taking of a fellow human's life.
Smelling the gradually spreading scent of blood in the air, they once again realized that they had entered a world of infinite horror and reincarnation.
On the platform, there was a long silence.
At this moment, Uchiha Gen had already gone to find the box containing the t-virus and the antidote.
This time, there were no additional rewards; rather, the plot item itself was a form of reward.
Seeing Uchiha Gen return, Zhan Lan finally recovered her composure. She broke the silence, saying, "Thank you again, Little Brother Gen. If you hadn't acted, we would have gone into the dangerous Hive with these mercenaries, and who knows when we would have died at the hands of zombies."
"From now on, we'll have to rely on each other. Shall we introduce ourselves?"
Zhan Lan thanked Uchiha Gen, then introduced herself: "My name is Zhan Lan, Zhan as in Zhan Tianyou, Lan as in mountain wind. Before coming here, I was a writer..."
Although Zhang Jie and Uchiha Gen had introduced themselves to each other earlier, unfortunately, Zhan Lan and Zheng Zha were still unconscious and thus hadn't heard.
Beside them, the retired soldier Zhang Jie and the former white-collar worker and business supervisor Zheng Zha also had no objections; everyone had the idea of sticking together.
After completing their self-introductions, they all turned their gaze to Uchiha Gen, who was currently the strongest on the surface in the Central Continent Team.
"Uchiha Gen, a Chunin of the Konoha Uchiha Clan. Please take care of me."
Uchiha Gen said with a smile, introducing himself.
In the Reincarnation World, before reaching Fourth Order combat power, sticking together offered a higher survival rate.
Although Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan were just ordinary people at the moment, they still had great potential for growth in the future. Therefore, even though Uchiha Gen's strength was much greater than others, he was not averse to integrating into the team.
"So you really are from the Naruto World. I initially thought you were a veteran playing cosplay. Thanks to you, we were able to get through this horror movie so safely."
Zheng Zha said with emotion upon hearing this.
At this moment, Zhang Jie finally found an opportunity to instill his slacker philosophy into everyone: "I just wanted to say, don't change the plot. This time you succeeded in taking down these mercenaries, but what if you failed? Your teammates could very likely have been dragged to their deaths by you."
As he spoke, Zhang Jie stared at Uchiha Gen, somewhat reproachfully.
He was taking advantage of Uchiha Gen's youth, trying to morally bind and restrict Uchiha Gen, making him a slacker like himself.
However, Uchiha Gen's smile was gentle, and he wasn't angry. He replied, "I simply chose the simplest and most efficient way to complete the mission. In my opinion, preventing civilian teammates from entering dangerous areas is the best approach."
"It's a pity that the Main God Space's missions cannot be abandoned. Otherwise, based on my past mission experience, I would choose to directly abandon dangerous missions and lead my teammates safely home."
This simple sentence instantly greatly increased Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan's favorability towards Uchiha Gen, as they were the ones being looked after.
Zhang Jie actually agreed with Uchiha Gen's concept of friendly mutual assistance in his heart. At this moment, he had already acknowledged the enthusiastic and friendly Uchiha Clan youth before him.
However, this did not align with his interests.
So he continued to try and speak, "The Main God Space will continuously increase mission difficulty to allow Reincarnators to evolve, and it will even change the plot of horror movies. So in the future, try to follow the horror movie plot as much as possible; this way, everyone's chances of survival will be higher..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Zhang Jie heard a grating sound of metal rubbing.
The group instinctively looked in the direction of the sound and found that the Hive's main gate had automatically opened at some point.
A dense swarm of Lickers had silently appeared and were now staring menacingly at the Central Continent Team.
