Seeing that the captain was determined to go, Mao Jiarui and Wu Qi looked at each other, and after two seconds, they coincidentally took out the isolation agent from their pockets.
"Let's go, that beast is waiting for us..."
The midnight wind gently blew across the faces of several people. Yin Ji had already reached the edge of the square and stopped.
Looking at the connected patches of gray-yellow sand on the ground in front of him, the skinny mouse's face was full of resentment and determination.
"Sheep and Scorpion, wait for me!"
After muttering something in his mouth, Yin Ji raised his legs and stepped forward resolutely on the strange gray-yellow sand.
The expected sinking feeling did not come from the soles of the feet. The boots landed on the ground, but instead made a gentle click.
"Huh? The sand seems to have solidified?"
Yin Ji took two steps and found that except for some changes in the color of the ground, the street was almost the same as the ground in the square.
Seeing that Yin Ji had stepped onto the dangerous sandy ground but was still safe and sound, Mao Zi and the weapons who were left behind immediately followed.
After careful attempts, the two finally determined the solidity of the sand under their feet, and their hearts that were hanging in the air felt slightly relieved.
"Boss, do we really want to go to that hotel..."
Wu Qi, who did not operate the computer, once again returned to his previous weakling appearance. Although the alley in the distance was not deep, it still revealed a terrifying atmosphere against the backdrop of the night.
What's more, he also witnessed the previous weirdness with his own eyes and knew that the building complex ahead was not made of ordinary reinforced concrete.
His thoughts were pulled back and forth between enlightenment and confusion, and Wu Qi felt that he was suffering psychologically.
What's scary? What is not understood is frightening;
So what are you most afraid of? The most frightening things are half-understood but not fully understood.
"You follow Brother Yin, and I will come to the rear."
Mao Zi quickly noticed the look on Wu Qi's face and instantly sympathized with the other person's psychology.
Although Mao Jiarui was scared himself, he still slowed down and let Wu Qi walk in front of him.
At the same time he spoke in a low voice.
"Weapon, you follow Brother Yin, I will come to the rear. Don't worry, even if you die, you will be the last one..."
Although the behavior of Queen Mao Jiarui gave Wu Qi a lot of comfort, the words he said made the young man's face change.
"Mao, Brother Mao, stop talking, you're so scared..."
Wu Qi waved his hands repeatedly to signal Mao Jiarui to stop talking. He quickened his pace and followed Yin Ji closely.
The building complex formed by gray-yellow sand is not far from the central square, probably only separated by a road.
The three members of the Secret Assassination Team soon arrived at the entrance of the alley.
Looking at the increasingly low visibility inside, the three people had different expressions on their faces.
Yin Ji, who was walking at the front, was not afraid. He just bit his teeth lightly and activated his first-level ability.
As the captain of the Dark Sting Team and the first D+-level personnel at Research Station No. 22 to undergo gene grafting surgery, Yin Ji is well aware of his first-order abilities.
Foreign gene fragment - shrew.
The shrew is the smallest known mammal on earth. It looks very similar to a gray mouse, but make no mistake, it is not related to a mouse in any way.
As a ground-dwelling creature, the shrew's snout extends into a flexible snout, giving it an extremely sensitive sense of smell.

Five-toed appendages provide strong support for rapid movement.
But the most feared thing is its saliva.
Who would have imagined that this small creature that looks like a mouse has salivary glands under its jaws that can secrete a highly toxic substance.
Although the shrew feeds on insects, earthworms and other small animals, this does not prevent it from poisoning a strong man.
Once bitten by a shrew, if not treated in time, it is likely to cause extensive organ failure and eventually death.
"First-level ability!"
Spark-like red light overflowed from the pores on Yin Ji's body, wandering around on its surface, as if a thin shield had been formed in the air.
Not only that, Yin Ji's appearance also changed slightly after his ability was turned on. His originally tall and narrow nose became more convex, and the beard around his lips began to grow slightly, making his appearance, which was already close to that of a mouse, even more... Obscene.
However, Wu Qi and Mao Jiarui at the back did not care whether their captain became handsome or ugly. In their eyes, what deserves more attention is always strength.
"Is this a first-level ability..."
Mao Zi looked at the red light surrounding Yin Ji, his eyes full of envy.
Wu Qi was even more rude. He seemed to want to take a closer look and stepped forward, almost landing on Yin Ji's back.
"Boss, you are so strong..."
While muttering words of praise, Wu Qi also felt a wave of oppression coming from his past. Although he had also been grafted with foreign genes, he was still an enhancer who had not yet awakened.
When the abilities of the esper are unleashed, ordinary enhancers simply cannot bear it.
Whether it is the physical strengthening system or the brain strengthening system.
"You two should cheer up, you may encounter danger next."
Yin Ji's voice became shriller after his ability was released. If I had to describe it, it was like the noise made by a steel wire rubbing back and forth against glass.
"With Brother Yin, a first-level ability user like you, no danger will be a problem..."
Mao Jiarui's eyes remained alert, but the tight muscles on his face were obviously relaxed.
"By the way, boss, what is your first-level ability?"
Wu Qi looked at Yin Ji curiously and asked.
I thought Yin Ji would give a straightforward answer, but unexpectedly, the man with a mouse face changed his expression and said coldly.
"You will know by then. Why are you asking so many questions now?"
"Well, yes, why are you asking so many questions about weapons now? With Brother Yin, we will see it sooner or later. Wouldn't it be better to keep some expectations? Let's focus on the task in front of us..."
Compared to the ignorant Wu Qi, Mao Jiarui obviously understands the world better.
Although they and Yin Ji are teammates, Yin Ji is also the captain of the Dark Assassin team.
The captain's status is D+ level, while the team members are only D level.
It is not appropriate for a subordinate to ask his superior for secrets.
"Oh fine……"
Wu Qi didn't seem to realize that he had said the wrong thing. He just nodded in understanding and stopped asking about Yin Ji's abilities.
The three of them entered the alley one after another.
As mentioned earlier, because the mission happened suddenly, the Assassination Team arrived at Yunlong Town overnight, so they did not change or replenish their equipment, and they did not have any night travel equipment such as night vision goggles.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
When we were outside, we were lucky enough to have good weather, and we were able to enter the town safely under the illumination of the moonlight.
But now they entered the alley, and the only moonlight was blocked by the buildings on both sides, leaving only darkness in front of the three of them.
"It's too dark. Fortunately, the light on the gun head was not taken off..."
After muttering something in his mouth, Mao Jiarui turned on the light on the submachine gun.
The white lights reflected on the walls on both sides of the alley, showing wavy patterns. If you look closely, you can barely distinguish the gray-yellow sand grains.
It's just that the color of these sand grains is rapidly darkening, becoming more and more similar to the color of cement.
"Brother Mao, you have a light, why don't you go to the front? I see that the boss doesn't have any lighting tools with him."
Noticing the light coming from behind, Wu Qi turned his head and suggested in a low voice.
"No, I can see it."
Before Mao Jiarui could respond, Yin Ji, who was walking at the front, spoke.
After pausing for a moment, as if he felt that his answer was a little imprecise, the rat-faced man added again.
"In the process of releasing my first-level abilities, my sense of smell and hearing will be greatly improved, so the dark environment does not pose a restriction to me. I guess this is also the reason why the organization dispatched our team here overnight. One of them..."
"The sense of smell and hearing can be improved during the process of releasing the first-order ability... This is really a good phenomenon..."
Wu Qi murmured in his mouth and quickened his pace by two points.
I don't know if it's because of Yin Ji's ability to spread out, but Wu Qi always feels that the opponent seems to be moving much faster than before, and it is easy to fall a certain distance if he is not careful.
"You don't think everyone will receive a similar improvement after awakening, do you?"
At this moment, the three members of the team were approaching the entrance of the alley, and they could be considered to have passed through the alley safely. Yin Ji's face showed a little relief, and as his mood improved, he unconsciously spoke a little more.
"Is not it?"
Wu Qi is like a curious baby, alert to his surroundings while still not forgetting to make up for his own shortcomings in knowledge.
"The enhancement obtained after awakening depends on the first grafted foreign gene. For example, for you and Mao Zi, the foreign genes are pufferfish and African bull boxhead frog respectively. After awakening, the improvement obtained will also be different. .”
"I see……"
After hearing Yin Ji's explanation, Wu Qi and Mao Jiarui read in unison.
"You are D-class personnel. Logically speaking, you do not have the authority to know this information. However, as long as I can successfully rescue Sheep Scorpion and return alive, I will slowly tell you everything I know in the future."
As he spoke, Yin Jianchang raised the steel knife and slowly brought it to his mouth.
In the shocked eyes of Wu Qi and Mao Jiarui, the rat-faced captain Yin calmly stretched out his tongue and licked the side of the blade lightly.
"Forehead……"
Seeing the captain who suddenly made a strange move, Wu Qi and Mao Jiarui looked at each other again.
But this time they didn't say anything, they just silently shook the weapons in their hands and prepared for the battle.
Although they had passed through the alleyway composed of gray-yellow sand without incident, several people knew that this did not mean that the mission was over.
What we have to face next is the real crisis.
"Form into a triangle, take care of your perspective, let's enter the hotel!"
Yin Ji took a deep breath and ordered in a deep voice...
