After passing through the long alleyway, the two soon ran to the square in the center of the town.

Strangely, when the two of them stepped onto the stone slabs in the central square, the tremors not far away suddenly intensified, and the buildings made of gray-yellow sand collapsed.

Under the moonlight, another strange scene of flat horses appeared in the north of Yunlong Town.

"Saving..."

Wu Qi stared blankly at the scene not far away, and struggled to take off the gas mask from his face.

"Look, listen to mine, if we run out later, we will both have to be buried..."

Yin Ji sat on the ground, breathing in the dusty air.

At this moment, he didn't care whether he should maintain the captain's majesty and survive, which was his greatest luck.

"Boss, how did you rescue Sister Yang? And how did this poetic hotel collapse? What happened in the growth area just now?"

After finally breathing evenly, Wu Qi raised three questions to Yin Ji in a row.

I don’t know if it’s because he is anxious to find out the answer, or because Wu Qi’s temperament has changed. In short, at this moment, he no longer has the restrained appearance he used to be.

Both in terms of tone and attitude towards inquiry, they all became a little arrogant.

"You boy...hehe..."

Faced with Wu Qi's attitude, Yin Ji was not only not angry, but also laughed happily.

"Don't worry, I'll talk to you slowly."

After rectifying the dust on his body, Yin Ji chose a suitable position for himself and took out a small iron box from his pocket on his chest.

He skillfully opened the iron box and contained several white cigarettes.

Yin Ji, regardless of whether there were any stains on his hands, picked up one and stuffed it into his mouth. Then he took out a cigarette lighter as thick as a thumb from the cigarette box and lit the cigarette.

After taking a deep breath of smoke, Yin Ji's fatigue was relieved. As the smoke slowly came out of his mouth, he also began to tell.

"I won't talk about the situation of the Russians for now. When I was on the first floor, I noticed something was wrong with him. However, his condition was not serious at that time. In addition, I was anxious and wanted to find the sheep and scorpion soon, so I didn't point it out."

"Later, I met Wang Jue and learned some of the information, so I had a general understanding of the overall situation."

"Although we don't know the real reason why the experimental subject is out of control, considering that Wang Jue, a C-level personnel, can survive safely underground, I have come up with two speculations."

"Presumably, the experimental subject under the poetic hotel may not be out of control in the true sense. It just killed all the experimental personnel on the site, and to some extent, it is still under the control of Wang Jue."

"Photograph 2: The experimental subject under the poetic hotel is completely out of control, and Wang Jue has long been dead. What exists in front of us is just a product of the experimental subject, which may be an hallucination or a parasite, but it is not Wang Jue who controls the overall situation, but the out-of-control experimental subject with no real body on the other end."

After saying this in one breath, Yin Jiyou took a deep breath of cigarette.

The red light of the cigarette butts turned from dark to light, and the tobacco in it burned rapidly under the night, making bursts of burning sounds.

"From Wang Jue's reaction before, I feel that the first type is more likely. After all, she can detect our strength. I think she is also a capable person, but I don't know how many levels it is."

After listening to Yin Ji's speculation, Wu Qi calmed down and added.

"If the speculation is true, then according to the information I know, Wang Jue should be a first-level abilities of the physical strengthening system, and I can feel it."

Yin Ji said lightly, then took another sip of the cigarette in his hand.

"But there is something strange. Since Wang Jue and I are in the same physical strengthening system, why is her athletic ability so poor? She can't even keep up with the running speed. I still need to recite it when going to and from the egg breeding area."

"Maybe it's not a physical strengthening system..."

Wu Qi added, but then he seemed to think of something, and he looked reluctant to speak but stopped.

"If she is not a person with the same-class ability, how could she sense our situation? Even if her ability is special, we should not be able to sense her strength."

"If this doesn't make sense, then there is only the possibility of speculation two. Is Wang Jue a product of the experimental subject? Or is it our hallucination? Parasites?"

Although Wu Qi's temperament became a little arrogant, his mind was still easy to use and soon followed Yin Ji's ideas.

"Yes, I personally think that the second speculation is more likely. If Wang Jue is not a real reinforcer, then a reasonable explanation can be found for a series of things that happen underground."

"Boss, what you mean is that Wang Jue is not actually a human? It is a product of the experimental subject? What really controls everything is actually the task we are going to investigate, the shield and earth?"

"Yes, just like the bugs on the Russians, maybe Wang Jue has been controlled by parasitism, or maybe she is just an hallucination in our minds."

Speaking of this, a hint of hesitation appeared on Yin Ji's firm face. He didn't know the truth of the matter. Everything was based on guessing. There was too little real information given to them.

However, Wu Qi's doubts were obviously more. Although he could understand Yin Ji's statement, his overall understanding of the incident was still not comprehensive enough.

"Let's answer your first question first, how did I rescue the sheep and scorpion."

Pointing to Yang Xiu lying on the ground, Yin Ji showed a hint of relief on his face.

"At that time, I was in the growth zone, because I noticed something wrong with the shadows, and neither you nor the Russians had the ability to see things in the dark, so I made a separate search decision and asked you two to wait for me at the entrance first."

"The worm tide composed of 'failed products' can swallow light and cover the original appearance of the hole wall. Logically speaking, it is impossible for me to find traces of sheep scorpions in such an environment."

"But the sheep scorpion appeared, just hanging so obviously in a corner of the cave wall. Although there were surging shadows around her, those 'failed items' seemed to be completely interested in her and were too lazy to get close to them."

"At that time, due to the constant approaching insect tide and the situation of something wrong with the Russians became more and more serious, I did not explain to you. I just wanted to rescue Yang Xiu soon and wait until the rest came out of the growth zone."

"The reason why we turned off the flashlight at that time was because of the possibility that the insect tide was attracted by the light. After all, we were sprayed with isolation agent on our bodies and should not be discovered."

"Is it phototaxis... It's really possible..."

Wu Qi nodded and agreed with what Yin Ji said.

"I was worried that I would be discovered by those monsters when I got close to the worm tide, but the result was very smooth."

"The bugs seemed to be unable to feel my existence, and some even deliberately avoided me, which made me quickly approach the Sheep Scorpion and brought her back."

"But as soon as I came back, I found you stabbed the Russian in the shoulder."

Speaking of this, a hint of helplessness appeared on Yin Ji's face.

"Although your temptation is clever and the result proves that your approach is absolutely correct, it is too impulsive to attack your teammates in the environment like the growth zone."

Although there was blame in Yin Ji's tone, he was still worried more.

"Let the hidden danger grow around you and ignore it is the source of danger..."

Wu Qi had a tough rebuttal with dissatisfaction on his face.

If it were before, he would never have done such a thing.

"Oh... it seems that you are really awakening, but you really have a thought."

Yin Ji looked at Wu Qi with a hostile face and smiled happily again. He did not respond to whether the other party's words were correct, but just pointed a lightly.

"What?!"

Hearing Yin Ji's words, Wu Qi was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed the changes in himself.

"It's okay, this is a normal phenomenon. Just control your emotions and don't be taken away by the feeling of being arrogant. After this period, you will be able to adapt."

Yin Ji didn't say anything more, as if he had noticed the hotness of his fingertips. Yin Ji pressed the burned cigarette butt to the ground and cut it out.

Then he took out one from the cigarette box, lit it and started smoking.

The two of them sat quietly, Wu Qi seemed to be ashamed of his attitude just now, while Yin Ji seemed to want to seize this moment of peace to restore his strength.

After the second cigarette was finished, Yin Ji continued to speak.

"I know that the situation of the Russian is a little wrong. The reason why he has not pointed it out is because his situation has not affected our actions."

"I'll ask you, do you know the bugs on the Russians?"

A glimmer flashed in Yin Ji's mouse's eyes, and his gentle voice became sharp.

"Before we have learned enough information, we will take action rashly, which is likely to harm the lives of the Russians. Our team has lost Lao Xia and can no longer lose the Russians."

"I got it, boss..."

Faced with Yin Ji's severity, Wu Qi did not refute this time, but just responded in a low voice.

Although he still had dissatisfaction in his heart, when he realized that this was a side effect caused by the secondary virus strengthening his body, he began to consciously control his emotions.

"Um."

Yin Ji nodded and took another breath of cigarette.

"Then why not kill that bug? I feel that if the bug was born at that time, the underground space of the poetic hotel might not have collapsed."

Although Wu Qi had already understood Yin Ji's intention, he still had a grudge about letting go of the monster insects. So, he seized the time to rest now and continued to ask questions.

"Let's start from the initial logic and sort it out. If the existence that controls the overall situation is not Wang Jue, but the shield-grave-gun that does not see the true body, then after we enter the poetic hotel, are we completely exposed to the other party's vision?"

"Since the organization has given the message that 'isolating agent can work', logically speaking, Yang Xiu, who sprayed the isolating agent, shouldn't be caught."

"From our subsequent experience, the only point where the isolation agent works seems to be when encountering mutant No. 42 in the egg breeding area and rescuing sheep scorpions in the growth area."

"And Brother Mao was also caught by a bug called "Failed Product"..."

Following Yin Ji's thoughts, Wu Qi whispered.

"Yes, have you noticed the contradiction?"

The thick smoke was spit out from Yin Ji's mouth, and the second cigarette burned to the end.

"The information given by the organization does not match our actual experience... Isolating agents do not have a shielding effect?"
