Even before the game's promotional CG was released, the Adventurers were already buzzing with discussion.
However, there was no doubt that everyone was pessimistic; in their opinion, CGs were never good.
Just then, Chen Yu's promotional CG arrived as scheduled.
It appeared on the “Biochemical Crisis” interface, visible to all players below.
“Holy crap, it’s here, it’s here…”
“The cover looks awesome, I wonder what it’s like inside?”
“I hope it doesn’t turn out to be a pile of crap and disappoint me.”
The Adventurers clicked on it one after another.
The CG began to play.
Night, shattered streets.
A city, ruined by zombies, appeared before everyone.
Looking at the appearance of this steel city, the Adventurers who clicked in were slightly shaken, their gaze deeply captivated by the exquisite CG.
The camera slowly panned down.
This was a street.
Darkness adorned the fragmented scene on the street, and abandoned steel vehicles appeared before everyone.
Under this night, faint footsteps sounded.
Four or five special forces soldiers, both male and female, holding firearms, watched their surroundings vigilantly.
Their mouths were tightly shut, not uttering a word.
A suffocating atmosphere permeated the group, deeply affecting the Adventurers watching outside.
“Holy moly, what is this place?”
“Another new version I’ve never seen before. Is this a city? How come it’s a bit different from our cities? This place is all built with materials called rebar and cement.”
“It’s too depressing. After leaving the laboratory, has the world turned into this?”
“Where are the zombies?”
As soon as this Adventurer finished speaking, he saw a corpse wedged between two cars. The moment the flashlight shone on the corpse, it transformed into a zombie, frantically trying to pounce.
“Holy crap, holy crap, you scared the hell out of me!”
“Don’t suddenly jump out like that!”
“Luckily, it was stuck between these two cars and couldn’t move, otherwise, this Tactical Squad member would definitely have been attacked by the zombie.”
The CG was playing smoothly.
Suddenly, the scene shifted, gunshots rang out, and another squad appeared, quickly engaging in battle.
One female team member burst into a room.
Under the flashlight’s beam, suddenly, at the corner of the wall, a red figure appeared, clinging to the ceiling. The figure’s brain was exposed, and its appearance was hideous and terrifying.
Upon seeing this, the bullet comments instantly exploded.
“Holy crap, a Licker!”
“Sure enough, the Licker is here too. How can they possibly win against that?”
“One-on-one?”
“Holy moly, it really is one-on-one. Who does she think she is, Li Ruoshu?”
“Wait a minute…”
“What the hell? My Licker just went offline like that? Lord Chen, come out, let’s talk this through.”
As the plot progressed, the subsequent scenes became even more outrageous, stimulating the Adventurers’ nerves one by one.
Heavy firepower, RPGs! Other survivor enemies!
And a large number of unknown monsters.
Lord Chen additionally added a large number of monsters later on. This incredibly powerful squad faced one monster attack after another, engaging in combat.
Various high-tech weapons and heavy weapons were used, gradually exciting everyone's minds.
“This is so cool, this RPG is just too cool, I want to grab one and try it out too.”
“One shot, that’s so satisfying, this scene really has a great feel to it…”
“Holy crap, if the actual gameplay is like this, I’ll totally hype it up, okay?”
“Zombies, a large number of zombies are coming out! Damn it, the Tactical Squad is surrounded, can they even survive this?”
“What are those hanging from their waists, Gatlings? The bullets are spitting out too fast, they’re even glowing blue.”
“Cool, cool, cool, it’s really too cool.”
The Adventurers exclaimed continuously.
The short promotional video, only a few minutes long, had already left them utterly captivated.
They wished they could enter Resident Evil right now and begin this adventure.
“It looks like it supports multiplayer teaming, that’s definitely going to be super fun.”
“Damn it, I haven’t passed the novice mode yet, so I can’t play this.”
“If you haven’t passed novice mode, don’t come join the fun. Bad controls will drag down your teammates.”
“I can’t take it anymore, I’m going to post this on the forum. Such a cool promotional video must be seen by everyone in Tide Town.”
“Right, right, right, I won’t allow anyone to not have seen such a cool CG.”
Forum.
1L OP: 【Holy crap! Great Xia Nevernight City's Resident Evil series has new content! “Resident Evil: Raccoon City Operations” first CG reveal!】
【Video Link】 Everyone, come in and watch on your knees!
2L: Damn! That eerie camera work at the beginning! Night + police car rooftop lights flashing by, I got goosebumps immediately!
3L Reply to 2L: I couldn't hold it! At the start, the Tactical Squad shone flashlights into an alley, and then in the close-up shot, half a rotten arm suddenly reached out! My eyes immediately latched onto the system. Shouldn’t this old Lord Chen compensate me with a free play session?
4L: Holy crap, holy crap! 1 minute 23 seconds! The Licker pouncing down from the ceiling in slow motion! Its tongue piercing through the bulletproof vest! This Licker is two sizes thicker than the one in novice mode!
5L Reply to 4L: It gets even more absurd later! When the Licker was feasting, the background glass suddenly shattered, and that zombie doctor in a white coat crawled in, dragging a scalpel, with bloodstains all over the ground! Ahhh!
6L: The coolest part is the team battle scene! The Tactical Squad stood back-to-back, firing guns, bullet trajectories flying with sparks, and in slow motion, you could see spent casings suspended in mid-air! Behind them, a giant monster wearing a gas mask slowly emerged in the firelight, the sense of oppression was maxed out!
7L Reply to 6L: No way! Is that big guy with the gas mask a new Boss? He crushed an armored car engine hood with his bare hands! He punched the Tactical Squad from the second floor down to the underground parking lot! Is this even a human, or a giant dragon?!
8L: Move aside! The helicopter crash scene was the real genius moment that only an exploding brain could come up with! The propeller sliced through the Licker's waist, and blood rain mixed with gasoline bombs exploded together. In slow motion, you could even see zombie severed hands flying in the air!
9L: The final easter egg was also amazing! A silhouette flashed past the entrance of the burning police station, and the Raccoon City clock tower exploded into fireworks! The bullet comments were all screaming “All rise!”
10L OP Reply to 9L: I really can’t imagine how Lord Chen’s brain works, to be able to produce something so explosive in just a few days.
11L Reply to OP: You’re right, every time Lord Chen brings something out, it makes me feel so excited, like my whole body is about to explode.

The entire forum of Tide Town was ignited by this promotional CG. Countless Adventurers fantasized about being a member of the Tactical Squad, setting the whole city ablaze.
However, what followed was the second promotional CG, titled “the road to survival,” which severely slapped the Adventurers in the face.
