Along the way, we passed through bustling neighborhoods. The various looks cast around them made the four of them feel as if they were in a giant monster jungle. The hunger in their eyes was like daggers, piercing deeply into everyone's heart.
Walking through the busy streets, you can see the bustling street lights. Everyone paused in front of a gorgeous signboard, and two kimono women wearing fox masks opened the door to the hotel for everyone.
"Youth?" Nobuko glanced at the waiter in front of the hotel.
"This is our best hotel! It is also the first choice for foreign VIPs! The people who live here are all famous people. You can rest assured and stay here. I guarantee your satisfaction!" Mrs. Gui said with a smile. Make a gesture of invitation.
Entering the hotel, there was already a buzz of people near the stage in the center of the hall. Two women wearing fox masks and gorgeous kimonos showed off their magical powers on the stage with cherry blossom fans. They freely transformed water and fire into different appearances, and danced in a series of postures like two dragons playing with fish and two dragons playing with pearls. Although they are wearing masks, just by looking at their dancing, you can feel that these are a pair of stunning beauties.
"What do you see?" Ye Yin asked Ye Xiu sideways.
"The dancers and waiters here all have spiritual powers. Moreover, many of them are mutants." Ye Xiu said.
"What else can you see?" Ye Yin asked.
"Their strength is on average above level four, and they have more or less unique skills of their own." Ye Xiu said.
"What else?" Ye Yin asked.
"More? Brother, do you know something?" Ye Xiu looked at Ye Yin expectantly.
"These two dancing girls are mutants. Moreover, they are mutants who can switch between water and fire attributes at will. Although they wear masks, their pupils are gray." Ye Yin frowned.
"What? Gray? You mean, these two dancers are actually corpses? How did you find out?" Ye Xiu looked at the center of the stage in surprise.
"Look at their movements, it looks like free dancing. In fact, it is the magic of water and fire that complement each other to help them complete complex movements. The reason is that their hands are in the shape of palms and the movements of their footsteps It's also very stiff." Ye Yin said.
Ye Xiu said in surprise: "It's so evil to secretly manipulate corpses to earn ticket prices for yourself. But where is the person who manipulates corpses!?"
"Not only evil, but also perverted. If you look at the audience in the audience, although they all have blood on their faces, almost all of them voluntarily gave their money to the dancers. Is this kind of obsessed look normal? "Ye Yin frowned.
Ye Xiu frowned and looked at the audience. Each one of them seemed to be drunk, swaying along with the dancer's movements, shouting "Hello" unconsciously. And most of the audience, almost all move in the same way. It looks like a living person, but in fact it is almost like a puppet.
"You mean, the caster also cast illusions on the audience?" Ye Xiu asked doubtfully.
"It's not impossible. But I can be sure that this spell caster has released at least two or more arts. He can release more than two arts at the same time with ease. He must be a top master." Ye Yin said.
"Yes, this is just the outskirts of Shadow Island. If you step into Shadow Island, you don't know what you will encounter." Ye Xiu frowned.
Everyone came to the front desk of the hotel. Several women wearing fox masks and kimonos received everyone politely. And gave everyone a gold medal with the word "Heaven" written on it.
Following the waiter to the room with the character "天" (天), the first thing that catches your eye are the large rooms on both sides and the luxurious living room in the middle. The design style of the rooms is all in the technological style of black gold and diamonds, which is extremely luxurious.
After the two waiters left, Entropy quickly closed the window and locked the door. Signaling everyone to be silent, he took out a lightbulb-shaped instrument from his pocket and raised it above his head. Circles of red aperture flashed across the tip of the instrument, and the aperture expanded to every corner of the room, and finally returned to the instrument.
"Make sure there is no listening device in this room. Everyone can talk now!" Entropy Bing said.
"Everyone, some of the waiters and actors in this hotel are mutants, and some are corpses. I think everyone must have noticed it." Nobuko said.
"Huh? Corpse? Can corpses move like normal people?" Fang Qing said in surprise.
"No, they didn't have normal activities, they were just controlled." Ye Yin said.
"It's hard to distinguish between the corpses controlled in this hotel and the normal mutants. But the person controlling the corpses behind the scenes is definitely extremely dangerous. Everyone must be careful when entering and exiting the hotel. I have heard that this hotel, on the surface, There are so many people singing and dancing, but there are countless dirty deals behind the scenes." Entropy Bing said.
"Yes, although this hotel accepts guests from all over the world on the surface, if you are deemed to have insufficient financial strength when entering the village, then you may be regarded as a poor person by the patrolling magician. You know, These days, resources are extremely scarce. It is not easy for this village to maintain various forces, normal consumption and transactions here. As the outer circle of Shadow Island, people who are considered to be economically weak are easily The magician obliterates it," Nobuko said.
"Why? Don't you deserve to live if you don't have money?" Fang Qing asked.
"It's not that they don't deserve to live. In this world, the strong can be stronger and have more resources. The weak will often be deprived of even some of their own resources. Because their strength is too weak, they may not even be able to live. I can't hold on to any of my own resources. It would be better to die happily if I live in constant panic like this." Nobuko said helplessly: "In this age of cannibalism, fairness and freedom are really luxurious."
"So, you want to tell us that we should be careful about magicians?" Ye Yin asked: "Then what kind of strength do magicians have? Can you introduce them in detail?"
"That's right! Magicians are mutants who can freely transform the attributes of the five elements and have powerful magic control capabilities. Their strength is basically around the fourth or fifth level. Their existence can be feared, good or evil. Basically, as long as you give money, Give them food, and they can work for any organization." Nobuko said, "And for the benefit of their employer, they may attack anyone."
"We shouldn't be their targets. After all, we have nothing to grab. But the instructor and Miss Nobuko, you two should be careful," Feiyu said.
"No, just the opposite. Many of the puppet dancers in this hotel are young people. And all of your skills are relatively special. It will be easier to take you down than to deal with us. And even if you can't become a dancer However, the underground organ trade is also very profitable. Therefore, no one can take it lightly. For the next action, everyone must be together." Entropy Bing said.
"We don't have to go together. We will go to the bank in the village later to exchange the currency of Shadow Island. You guys stay in the hotel and don't go anywhere. If you go out, you don't know how many pairs of eyes you will be watching." Nobuko said.
"But if you stay in the hotel, you'll be safe?" Entropy Bing asked doubtfully.
"Of course it's okay to act together, but if you blend in with the crowd, won't you fall into the illusion? Besides, they have learned very little about how to crack the illusion. Once lost, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find. Stay in the hotel, At least they are still guests, and for the sake of service, at least they will restrain themselves. But once they arrive at a crowded place, it is difficult to tell. The magicians they have to face may come from various institutions." Xinzi glanced at Entropy Bing, and said calmly Said: "You can measure the risks yourself. I am not an alarmist, I can actually reduce the risks for them."
"Okay! Then listen to Miss Xinzi."
After saying that, Xinzi and Entroping opened the door and left. The four of Ye Yin were left in the room, meditating individually. He was about to practice meditation when he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Hello! Waiter!"
The four of them looked at each other, suddenly becoming more cautious.
"What's the matter?" Ye Xiu responded.
"Bring tea! Fruit!"
Ye Xiu opened the door, and a waiter wearing a fox mask handed out a plate of exquisite snacks with a smile.
"Guys, please use it slowly!"
"Wait a minute!" Ye Xiu asked confused: "We didn't order these, who gave them to us?"
"This... is the tea specially prepared by the hotel for guests in the Tianzi room." The waiter responded respectfully.
"Oh? Thanks! But we don't need it. Foreigners can't get used to it." Ye Xiu said.
"Sir, tea is delivered to every guest who comes to the hotel. Besides, everyone agrees on our special tea! You can try it!"
"I told you everything..."
"Axiu!" Ye Yin walked up to the waiter and took the tea: "Thank you very much!"
"Please use it slowly."
After closing the door, the waiter took off the mask. A man with a blue face and a lightning scar tattooed on his left eye took out an intercom device: "The target is determined. Except for the dark energy body, the other three are the God of War Ji Ling and the other one is the God Creation System. . Hall Master, do you want to test their strength?"
"awaiting notice!"
"yes!"
On the other side of the door, Ye Yin put his ear against the back of the door and heard very clearly. His face looked a little ugly, and he carefully observed the plate of tea. He pressed his palms slightly, and the black smoke swirled slightly. The entire plate of tea gradually disappeared with the whirlpool of black smoke.
"This waiter is fake! We have been targeted!" Ye Yin frowned.
"Yes, the waiters in this hotel all have the same posture, but this guy is different." Ye Xiu frowned and said, "Brother, what did you hear?"
"I heard him talking about the hall master. It must be related to Shadow Island! As soon as he came, he was eager to find out our details. Obviously, he will take action against us in the future." Ye Yin said.
"This is indeed the outer circle of Shadow Island! News spreads fast enough!" Ye Xiu said.
"What? That guy just now came here to get information? If I had known, I should have killed him!" Feiyu said.
"Yes, Ye Yin, you heard everything and still let him go?" Fang Qing asked doubtfully.
"If we kill him directly, aren't we asking for trouble? Although we are being targeted, the other party does not know our purpose. However, the other party may know that I use dark energy. This will affect future actions. It will be very disadvantageous!" Ye Yin said.
"Once you get to the island, the other party will soon know that your purpose is to seize the eye stone." Ye Xiu said.
"Do you want to report this matter to Captain Entropy and Miss Xinzi?" Feiyu asked.
"I think they should have known this a long time ago!" Ye Xiu frowned.
"Knowed it a long time ago? Why did you bring Ye Yin here on purpose?" Fang Qing asked doubtfully: "Is this causing trouble for yourself!?"
"You think about it, how could a high-ranking officer of the legion enter the island easily without knowing the methods of Shadow Island? So I said that this operation has an ulterior motive." Ye Xiu said doubtfully: "It's just that we don't know. What are your plans, two officers?"
At the same time, Xinzi and Entropy Bing had already exchanged the special currency for Shadow Island. On the way back to the hotel, in order to avoid the crowds of people, they chose a less traveled road.
"This time, the investigation team of Shadow Island has definitely discovered Ye Yin." Nobuko said.
"Isn't this exactly what Miss Xinzi expected?" Entropy Bing's face looked a little ugly.
"Captain Entropy, if you have something to say, say it directly and don't leave any hidden meanings behind your words." Xinzi said doubtfully.
"My subordinates dare not! I just hope that Miss Xinzi has achieved her goal and can let Ye Yin and Ye Xiu go. Miss Xinzi also knows that once the soul in Ye Yin's body is angered, the legion will also face a big crisis!" Entropy Bing said.
"Ha! Having a spirit with a rebirth attribute like the island owner is much more valuable than a Ye Yin with a strong destructive ability! Right, Captain Entropy?!" Nobuko smiled playfully: "If you sacrifice a Ye Yin, you can If the resources of the entire legion are inexhaustible, then the legion will be able to expand in strength. As for the soul you mentioned in his body, I don't believe that he can win over our major general."
"But...even so, we still lost talents! You know, if they are trained well, they can become great officers!" Entropy Bing's face was extremely ugly.
"Talent is more important, or is the future of the entire legion more important? Captain Entropy, which one is more important, I don't need to explain more." Nobuko looked at the road ahead, with a slight curl in the corner of his mouth.
"Of course I can understand what you said. But the key question is, how can Ye Yin and Ye Xiu be so easy to fool? Besides, the soul in Ye Yin's body comes from the void, and its integration with the main body is also I don’t know to what extent. Our legion’s self-made micro virus tracker has been destroyed by it long ago. The one inside Ye Xiu’s body will probably be dismantled by Ye Yin soon! Therefore, we still have to deal with this special unit. You have a kind attitude! Besides, although we didn't express your plan clearly, wouldn't they be surprised? You, a military doctor of such a high level, risk your life to help a new recruit improve his spiritual power? How can this be so? Our army is unprecedented!" Entropy Bing frowned.
"You don't have to worry about this. I have a way!"
