"Actually, the employer didn't say anything, there's nothing that can't be revealed, don't worry." Seeing Ye Yuansong and Ye Shaoheng looking blank, Andrei waved his hand indifferently: "They just asked us to take you in."

"And you?" Shi Yin asked.

“Of course we have to stay at our posts. You’ve given us a lot of trouble.” Andrei spread his hands: “We attracted those zombies to be guards. If you kill them all, we’ll have to guard the fortress ourselves.”

Shi Yin: "..."

“Brother, you’re a nice guy.” Ye Shaoheng’s opinion of Andrei had changed: “I thought you were hard to talk to and would fight us.”

"Oh, how could that be? It's not easy working these days, of course we want to avoid trouble." Andrei patted his chest. "Come on, let's go in..."

"Bang!"

"Well done, but unfortunately, androids always have flaws compared to humans." Shi Yin raised her gun and, before anyone could react, fired several more shots, killing all the witnesses.

"Yin, Sister Yin?" Ye Shaoheng was completely bewildered. What was going on?

They were just having a good chat, and this big guy didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards them, so why was he suddenly killed?

"I felt something was off when I first met you. You're such a homebody, and I couldn't get you to leave Milica even with three green crystal cores. How did you suddenly come to Yanlong Kingdom?"

“You’re right about one thing: you’re a mercenary with principles. You’re not swayed by wealth or status, except when it comes to me.” Shi Yin put away her gun. “When you heard me say that back then, you were furious and we had a good fight.”

“You are indeed exceptionally capable, but making you a guard right now is not a good choice.”

"An android? What's going on?" Ye Yuansong accurately grasped the key point in Shi Yin's words: "Could this person be a robot?"

“Yes, a disposable product with a short lifespan after being implanted with human memories.” Shi Yin sneered, “Unfortunately, this hastily produced semi-finished product is too immature.”

Ye Shaoheng and Ye Yuansong exchanged a glance. They were already under a lot of pressure, and now they were even more nervous. Knowing too much about some things can cause fear, but humans also feel fear about the unknown.

It puts people in a dilemma.

After passing through the main gate and another sturdy, thick wall, the three finally reached the central area. Compared to the simple solidity of the first gate, this wall and gate were clearly designed for attack.

The walls were covered with electric fences and barbs. There were three surveillance cameras glowing red on just one gate and a short section of wall. The sight of the central building surprised the three of them even more.

These buildings have been expanded far too much; they've become like a small castle.

From the outside, they could only see the taller building standing in the center, but as they got closer, they realized that the building was not independent. It was surrounded by shorter buildings on all four sides, and even shorter buildings were attached to the three sides of the shorter buildings.

This building has been artificially constructed to resemble a pyramid.

"This is too outrageous. Does the enemy also have high-tech talents like us?" Ye Yuansong exclaimed in surprise.

Could it be that those behind the scenes also possess brilliant scientists like Helmod? If so, wouldn't their task be significantly more difficult?

"Of course not. This building probably contains the blood and tears of more than a hundred superhumans, right?" Shi Yin gently tapped the metal wall. "The superhuman fluctuations are very obvious. This building was constructed purely with superhuman abilities."

“These people don’t know about Sister Yin’s arrangements, so they will most likely overwork themselves.” Ye Shaoheng realized: “Are these people treating people with superpowers like slaves? Aren’t people with superpowers a scarce resource?”

It's important to know that everyone initially disagreed with Shi Yin's exile plan because Shi Yin said that anyone who didn't want to stay in Yanlong Kingdom, whether they were a superhuman or an ordinary person, could leave.

Superhumans are a scarce resource. If a superhuman is developed and trained well, they can become a top-tier combat force, more effective than many firearms.

With the area of ​​human activity greatly reduced and many factories shut down, the efficiency of gunpowder and some weapons production has been greatly reduced, and people even have to cut back on spending. As a result, people with superpowers have naturally become the front line.

But if he understood correctly, were these superhumans being treated like dogs here? Like cattle and slaves? The more Ye Shaoheng thought about it, the more illogical it seemed.

"Don't make a fuss. Our main fighting force is the superhumans, their main fighting force is the zombies." Shi Yin said helplessly, "Your thought process is too straightforward. Why can't you think about things in a more logical way?"

"Oh, right..." Ye Shaoheng chuckled dryly. He had just inadvertently mistaken those people for normal people like himself.

The three continued walking forward, and just as they reached the glass door and were about to push it open, the door suddenly opened from the inside, and a person wearing a black robe and a mask stood in front of them.

"Welcome to Black Bat Prison, you've really come." The person in the black cloak seemed to be wearing a voice changer; their voice was heavily electronic and androgynous.

"What do you mean we're really here? You captured the bear just so we could come!" Ye Shaoheng couldn't help but retort.

The man in the black cloak smiled without saying a word, ignoring the man's words. Instead, he turned to Shi Yin and said, "Miss, our master has something he wants to discuss with you. Entrusting the task of welcoming a bear to the renowned Major General of the Yanlong Kingdom shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"What if I refuse?" Shi Yin asked rhetorically.

“You won’t refuse. You desperately want information about the person behind the scenes. This is your chance.” The man in the black cloak bowed politely. “The person who wants to see you is a high-ranking official.”

Shi Yin frowned, about to say something, when Ye Yuansong interrupted her.

"It's alright, Shi Yin, you can stay." Ye Yuansong looked at Shi Yin calmly: "We believe in you."

"That's right, that's right. Just come quickly after you've finished dealing with this. No one can stop you, right?" Ye Shaoheng said nonchalantly.

"You see, even your companions are saying that." The man in the black cloak seemed to be in a good mood, but the voice he uttered through the voice changer was grating and strange.

Shi Yin remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.

Another person in a black cloak emerged from the darkness. Perhaps due to the disguise, the two people in black cloaks looked exactly alike when they stood together, and even Ye Yuansong did not notice any flaws.

The newly emerged man in the black cloak bowed to the two men and walked ahead. Ye Yuansong and Ye Shaoheng exchanged a glance and quickly followed.

"So, who wants to see me?" Shi Yin stroked the scepter in her hand and sighed softly, "You just want to stall for time and keep me here."

"What do you think?" The man in the black cloak chuckled twice.

"That's too naive." Shi Yin commented truthfully: "Although Ye Shaoheng is stupid, he's not that fragile."

"Yes, yes, how naive, how naive. But you're not facing me." The man in the black cloak chuckled, then suddenly leaped into the air, lifting his cloak and transforming into a cloud of black mist.

"It's not about defeating those two idiots, our target is you."

"It's you, it's you!"
