Chapter 350: Longtan Tiger's Lair (2)
At the moment, the woman who launched an attack on Ji Donghai was none other than Yang Xiu, the assaulter in the assassination team.
Seeing this, some people may say, Ah, wasn't this Yang Xiu dragged to the ground by a tie made of gray and yellow sand grains, why did he suddenly appear again now, and he also attacked Ji Donghai?
The clock had to go back another twelve hours.
Inside the basement level of the Poetic Hotel.
After completing the recording, Yin Jian led his two teammates to go deeper underground, and because he knew about the existence of the strange fat worm, the vigilance of several people was pulled to the highest.
Especially Mao Jiarui, because he was the only one who could see the fat insects just now, he naturally assumed the position of vigilance.
I thought I would run into that weird bug soon, but the three of them walked for a while, and they didn't encounter anything wrong.
The entire underground of the Poetic Hotel is quiet, as if no one has ever been active here.
Moreover, the surrounding walls are getting rougher and rougher, and not only is the color of the building no longer what it should be, but even the texture has changed.
"Brother Yin, don't you think it's a little strange?"
Mao Jiarui, who was walking at the back, shone a flashlight on Yin Jian, and his tone was full of worry and fear.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly, let it go quickly, say what you find, don't grind and chirp!"
Yin Jiaotou, who was walking in front, said without looking back.
"The walls around here...... Forehead...... And the steps under our feet seem to be getting rougher and rougher......"
Mao Jiarui looked around carefully, his face was almost on the wall, but he still just looked at it, and he didn't dare to touch it.
He had seen the scene where the gray-yellow sand particles dragged Yang Xiu into the ground, and in the face of the walls and ground composed of these sand grains, he naturally did not dare to act rashly.
"As I said, the world is different now, don't think about things in the same way as before, calm your emotions and concentrate!"
Yin Jian stopped and glanced at Mao Jiarui behind him, as if reminding and comforting.
"We've all been sprayed with tissue rationed insulators, and judging from the mission information, the target shouldn't be able to spot us, as long as we're careful enough not to stick it on the target's face, there won't be any major problems."
"Boss, Brother Mao, he shouldn't mean to be afraid......"
Wu Qi, who was sandwiched between Yin Jian and Mao Jiarui, answered in a low voice, and on the way, the young man was also constantly observing the surroundings.
Mao Jiarui's discovery was not a hallucination of his own, as several people continued to go deeper, the fineness of the surrounding walls did decline very seriously.
If it was just a rough house that was not renovated before, it can almost be called a cave that has just been mined for a short time.
"It's true that the surrounding walls and floors aren't as fine as they were when you first entered the basement level, and have you noticed ......, boss?"
Wu Qi swallowed, a subtle hint of fear flashing in his eyes.
"We seem to be going down all the time...... But I didn't see the bottom two floors......"
As soon as these words came out, the three members of the Assassin Team fell silent at the same time.
That's right, five minutes have passed since they walked from the basement to the present.
Although the speed of the progress of several people is not fast, the time of five minutes is enough to walk from the first basement to the second basement floor.
But now the scene in front of the few people is still a diagonal downward passage, and there is no sign of the appearance of a level.
"Normally, in order to consider the convenience of pedestrians, the building will set up a tarding platform every eighteen steps, if calculated according to the height of three meters on the first floor, we have to enter the second basement from the first basement, at least through a tarding platform."
"But now we've walked almost a hundred steps, and we still haven't encountered a single platform."
Wu Qi told the information he had learned through his observations.
"What do you mean?"
Yin Jian nodded slightly, what Wu Qi said
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
He had already discovered these details, but because he didn't encounter any emergencies, he chose to put them on hold for the time being.
"Combined with what Brother Mao saw before, I feel that the bottom of this hotel is not artificially built, but more like it was excavated by some creature......"
Wu Qi muttered, and finally said the guess in his heart.
I thought that after saying this guess, Yin Jian attached great importance to it, and no matter how bad it was, he should show a surprised expression.
Unexpectedly, Yin Thorn's mouse face not only did not have the expression that Wu Qi expected, but also became calm, and he chuckled twice, as if he heard something that he didn't need to care about.
"Like it was excavated by some creature? Isn't that normal...... The target of our mission is a mutated creature. ”
"But...... A mutated creature that can make such a big movement? ”
Mao Jiarui's face still had a little fear on his face, and the movement he was talking about was referring to the scene where the buildings on the north side had risen from the ground before.
"Didn't I say it, the way of the world is different from before, don't use common sense to judge everything you see, otherwise you won't even know how to die."
"If you want to live, you have to show your value to the organization!"
Yin Jian's words seem a little twisted, but the actual idea is extremely simple.
As operatives within the T-Organisation, it is difficult for these D-Levels to get the full range of information, and they are always in a foggy cloud.
It felt like walking in a dark forest, with only a faint fluorescent candle flame in your hand.
The danger around them could take their lives at any moment, and there was nothing they could do about it.
But fortunately, this pitch-black forest was planted and established by the T organization, although it is indeed unreliable at times, like a child who plays with fire and burns himself, but in general, it should still be under control.
As long as they can show their value to the organization, the organization will show them a safe path, and in such a situation, even if they don't know the whole story, they can save their lives safely.
"Although we must be vigilant at the moment, we don't have to worry too much, these mutated creatures are made by the organization after all, and there must be a way to deal with them, and the most important thing at the moment is to find the sheep scorpion."
Yin Thorn's shrill voice echoed in the passage, matching the current atmosphere, sounding a bit ghostly.
However, these words played a role in stabilizing the morale of the army, and I saw that the fear on the faces of Wu Qi and Mao Jiarui slowly receded, and within a moment, they returned to the best state of performing the task.
"Brother Yin is right, how to say it here is also the territory of the organization, since we are members of the organization, there is no reason to worry too much."
"That's right, the boss has a point."
The trio continued down the passage, and after five minutes, they finally caught a glimpse of flat ground at the end of the darkness.
"It's here!"
Although Mao Jiarui was at the end of the line, he was the first to speak.
"This should be the second basement floor of the Poetic Hotel, cheer up!"
Yin Jian, who was at the forefront, whispered that he didn't have Mao Jiarui's flashlight, but under the strengthening of exogenous genes, Yin Jian was still able to move freely in a dark environment.
"Aside from being a little bigger than the basement level, there doesn't seem to be anything special about it......
Wu Qi took advantage of Mao Jiarui's flashlight to quickly look at the layout of the second basement floor.
The second floor of the Poetic Hotel is a small oval-shaped space with no decorative furnishings, clean only sand and dust.
However, on the surrounding walls, there are also many doors of different sizes neatly arranged.
Some of the doors are made of wood, others reflect the sheen of metal in the light of flashlights, and they are completely different in size, old and new, and look as if someone had taken them down somewhere and hastily installed them here.
"Is there the bug you saw earlier?"
Looking around, Yin Jian turned his gaze to Mao Jiarui behind him, open
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Kou asked.
"Uh...... There should be no ...... Yes, there's no such bug ......."
When Mao Jiarui heard this, he carefully scanned the surroundings with a flashlight, and after confirming it, he said slowly.
"It's good if you don't have it."
Retracting his inquiring gaze, Yin Jian looked at the doors that were neatly arranged on the wall.
After a rough count, there were roughly more than fifty of them.
However, these are only normal doors that can accommodate adults to pass through, and at a distance from the three people, there is also a string of small doors, only half the height of normal doors, which seems to only accommodate children.
Adults who want to enter through such doors must crawl on their knees.
"Well, there is no door on the basement floor, it seems to be abandoned, how can there be so many doors here out of thin air? Could it be that behind each door, there is a separate room? ”
Wu Qi also looked around, only to see him cautiously walking towards a wooden door, tentatively pulling the handle on the door.
Yin Jian and Mao Jiarui didn't know whether Wu Qi had touched the doorknob or not, but they saw that he seemed to touch it quickly, and then jumped away several meters like a rabbit.
Just when the two thought that Wu Qi was in some danger, the young man suddenly spoke.
"The door seems to be locked...... I can't open it......"
Yin Jian and Mao Jiarui's heads hung down with three black lines.
"You can't open the door, why are you moving so much, I thought there was high voltage electricity on the doorknob......"
Mao Jiarui, whose mood had recovered, added angrily, as if he was planning to laugh at Wu Qi's timidity.
"So many doors, all locked?"
Yin Jian didn't mean to laugh at the other party, and his attention quickly focused on the front of him.
"Why don't you try it? There's no fat bug here anyway......"
Mao Jiarui seemed to be very afraid of the strange insect on the first floor of the basement, and when he saw that there was no such thing on the second floor of the basement, the whole person suddenly relaxed a lot.
I saw him step forward in two steps, and also tried to push and pull the wooden door that Wu Qi had touched, and found that the door was indeed locked as the other party said.
Without the intention of staying, Mao Jiarui tried in order to continue, except for a few doors that showed signs of loosening, the other doors seemed to be firmly glued to the wall, and they couldn't be pushed or pulled at all.
"Damn, these doors shouldn't be built directly into the wall, how can there be such a tight lock......"
seems to be dissatisfied with the current situation in front of him, Mao Jiarui's words are mixed with two swear words.
It's no wonder that Mao Jiarui is a real physical enhancement system, although he has not been able to awaken the first-order ability like Yin Thorn, but he has already surpassed ordinary people in terms of strength.
When pushing and dragging the door, Mao Jiarui deliberately increased the force in his hand, but most of the doors were in a state of not moving, which made him feel a little frustrated in his heart.
"It shouldn't look like it's built in a wall, you see, there's a mark on the ground from the friction of the door panel."
Yin Thorn's eyes were like two keen searchlights in the dark, and he quickly spotted the clues on the ground and pointed them out.
"Brother Yin, I don't look like these doors are made of sand, you look at the surface of the door panel, and there is rust, this must be a serious iron door......
Mao Jiarui looked at the door that Yin Jian pointed out that there were traces of friction, and said in surprise.
In fact, since entering the underground, everyone in the Assassin Team has identified a concept in their hearts, that is, since the Poetic Hotel is formed by the accumulation of gray-yellow sand grains, the furniture decoration in it must also be composed of sand.
That's why I subconsciously think that the gate is also formed by the convergence of sand grains.
When Mao Zi's words fell, the three of them fell silent in place, Yin Jian did not speak, and Wu Qi did not speak.
Everyone was thinking, thinking about the oddity in front of them.
In this quiet moment, a discordant creak suddenly came from the corner......
