As soon as Liang Shi opened the game, he put away his handgun and switched to a dagger.

Influenced by Fang Qi, Liang Shi and a couple of other people all began to use their daggers instead of handguns.

“…” Fang Qi glanced at the players. “Do you all plan to pass the level with daggers?”

“Hahaha… My hands are itchy for the dagger!” Liang Shi chuckled as he scratched his head.

“You don’t have to be in such a hurry,” Fang Qi laughed. “Later on in the game, you’ll have a lot of chances to practice your knife skills during ‘Knife-Only Speed Runs’.”

Ever since they began playing Resident Evil, Song Qingfeng and the others had seen obvious improvements in their strengths. Moreover, this game was much more fun than practicing martial arts, which was both boring and exhausting in comparison. Therefore, they had become daily customers to Fang Qi’s internet café.

“Knife-Only Speed Runs?” Song Qingfeng, Lin Shao, Xu Luo, Li Xi, and Ping ran over to Fang Qi’s shop early in the morning. As soon as they heard a new term, Song Qingfeng immediately asked, “What’s that?”

“It’s a mode that forces the player to pass the level with pure skills,” Fang Qi explained. “You’ll understand when you pass the game.”

He remembers that in his previous world, the official Resident Evil One Remake offered the player two modes after they passed the game: real survival mode and invisible enemy mode. Knife-Only Speed Runs, on the other hand, was a suicidal challenge that players invented themselves.

This required the main characters to play the entire game with just a dagger; no one would do anything like that in real life, but games were different. After passing the game, many advanced players were unsatisfied by its difficulty. Therefore, they came up with a more brutal challenge for themselves.

That was how the ‘Knife-Only Speed Runs’ came to exist.

However, the System’s Resident Evil One: Virtual Reality Remake would force the players to play under the ‘Knife-Only Speed Runs’ mode right after he or she finished the game!

Of course, those who could finish the game with just a dagger under virtual reality mode were unquestionably the best of the best!

This was because fighting with just a dagger required immense combat skills! Or else, with the hunters’ incredible attack powers, the players would die almost immediately!

“I guess I have to practice using my dagger more!” Song Qingfeng laughed out loud as he opened his game.

Soon, a horrific-looking monster with scales on its body appeared on his screen!

A hunter!

“Young Master Song, you finally encountered the hunter?” Lin Shao and the others immediately glanced over.

“A hunter!”

More and more people turned their attention to Song Qingfeng; encountering the hunter meant that the player was more than half way through the game.

“Does that mean he’s going to pass the game soon?”

“You guys enjoy.” Fang Qi rubbed his empty belly and remembered that he hadn’t eaten yet.

The transformation by the T-Virus could be seen as a type of evolution; evolving the human body to a state of perfection. That was what the T-Virus did!

In the history of Resident Evil, almost no one evolved perfectly! Almost everyone who was infected mutated into monsters.

Fang Qi’s evolution, however, didn’t cause any mutation at all! It was a perfect evolution!
