Thanks for the exercise with the ball of yarn
"Carmen has a way to catch up with us." Noticing Xiao Qingcen's distraction, Shang Yiqi shook his wolf ears slightly.
These wolf ears are for Wang to grab easily.
Fortunately, the people who had just met them were not familiar with the unlucky guy and could not tell the difference in height.
"Okay." Xiao Qingcen touched Shang Yiqi's ear, and the fur on his ear felt wonderful.
It’s fun to interact with Wang Tietie.
Shang Yiqi followed the mercenary.
Carmen's investigation was not smooth. After taking away all the data about the researcher, he left this inconspicuous room openly.
But he didn't find anything valuable afterwards, and was almost discovered by a mercenary. He left the scene while chatting and laughing with the other party.
A special ability of the elves came into play at this time.
They can all transform into animals, but the spirits are different from the Thousand Mimics. The Thousand Mimics can mimic, changing from animals to humans and from humans to animals, switching between two different states, but the spirits can exist in two different states at the same time.
When they are young, the spirits only have animal form, but when they reach adulthood, they can take on human form. If the spirits wish, they can control both an animal form and a human form and move around in this world.
As one of the few five-star police officers in the world, Carmen had already split himself into two as soon as he entered the archives room and found that there were no surveillance cameras.
It's a bit like one brain controlling two different game consoles and performing activities at the same time.
When the Eldar reach adulthood, their animal form is spirit-like and does not truly exist, but can be detected by various interstellar-era technologies, making it a very suitable ability for investigations.
His animal form moved to the left and his human body moved to the right. Soon, his soul drifted and caught up with Shang Yiqi and Xiao Qingcen who were walking slowly.
"Something just doesn't feel right."
As they moved forward, Shang Yiqi heard several mercenaries in front of him communicating in very low voices.
"I think there's something wrong with it, too."
"I originally thought I wouldn't think too much about it if the money was enough, but it's hard not to think too much about it now."
"Those researchers weren't satisfied with the consumables, so they also took action on themselves?"
"There's no guarantee they won't turn around and attack us."
They spoke in very low voices, and if Shang Yiqi had not had outstanding hearing, he might have missed the whispers.
"Let's find a chance to get the money and run away from here." The leader of the mercenary team also said.
They reached a consensus and continued to move towards the location mentioned in the broadcast without changing their expressions.
The whole floor was silent. Xiao Qingcen didn't know when it started, but he suddenly realized that there was no other sound here except their footsteps and breathing.
The mercenaries had probably realized this as well. They held their breath and focused their attention, with the crisis radar in their brains at the highest level.
Something bad seems to have happened.
The door at the end of the corridor was not closed, and a group of people walked in one after another. Suddenly, they felt their bodies shiver violently - it was so cold!
There must be some unknown danger hiding here!
Carmen, who has the ice-attribute ability and has arrived after much difficulty:?
The mercenaries, who were still unaware that they were battling a battle of wits and courage with a mass of air, rolled their eyes and became particularly slick when facing the man sitting behind the seat in the office.
After all, these were mercenaries who had experienced countless life-or-death experiences; such a small scene wouldn't really scare them. Carmen sighed regretfully, sending a gust of cold air behind the ear of a mercenary with relatively weak mental defenses. The latter shivered again, his entire body shivering. He looked back but saw nothing suspicious.
The man in front of me had a very ordinary face, plain and mediocre. In short, there was nothing worth noting about him.
Xiao Qingcen looked at the other person through Shang Yiqi's vision. He was really the kind of person you would forget about in three seconds if you bumped into him on the street, except that he would occasionally feel a little out of place. But Shang Yiqi suddenly tensed up.
His ears were erect, and Xiao Qingcen felt that he was alert.
'Is there something wrong? ' he asked.
Just now, Shang Yiqi did not notice anything wrong with the researcher because of the door, glass and the mercenaries. But the moment he stood in front of this man, there was one result that was beyond doubt.
"Cen Cen, this thing in front of me is not a human." His right hand subconsciously slid into his pocket, restraining the urge to quickly draw his weapon.
It would be unwise to draw your weapon in this situation.
At the very least, we need to figure out how many monsters like this exist in this world.
The man's neck tilted, revealing a seam slightly darker than his skin tone. It was so tempting to draw your eyes to the seam.
"Hello, I'm very happy to be able to talk to you here. My name is Jia Ziben."
Xiao Qingcen couldn't help but grab Shang Yiqi's ears, trying to ensure that he wouldn't laugh too wildly.
The name is backwards.
Aren’t they just capitalists?
The other party did not hear Xiao Qingcen's laughter, but did not pay attention to anyone's greetings. He continued talking to himself as if it was a mechanical program.
"You've seen the situation at our institute. Most of the highly intelligent and technologically advanced talents are confined to the official research institute. The researchers at our institute are rare and precious..."
Before he could finish his words, one of the mercenaries couldn't help but yawn.
This kind of fake concern from a high-ranking leader was what they found most intolerable, especially since there were only five minutes left until their usual shift ended...
To put it in an equivalent way, isn't it like the boss in your company who always demands meetings at the end of the working day? He makes a lot of big promises, but in fact, none of them are successfully fulfilled.
Listening to him talk is like listening to a fart, but I still have to sit and listen while suppressing my sleepiness.
There didn't seem to be much difference between the interstellar age and the modern society that Xiao Qingcen had experienced, except for technology.
'Three minutes to go.'
The man in front of him was still chattering incessantly. Xiao Qingcen's mind was empty. He only roughly understood that he was probably asking whether or not he was willing to really join them. If he was willing, he would pay more than five times the reward.
Xiao Qingcen clearly heard the mercenary next to him sneer.
There's no such thing as a good thing. You uncovered a mysterious and unusual incident within a sinister organization, and instead of telling your boss to shut up, he offered you a hefty salary. There's no such thing as a good capitalist.
I wonder how many of these things are here... Xiao Qingcen thought, if he guessed correctly, this should be the same thing as the legendary counterfeit that was assassinated by Shang Yiqi five hundred years ago.
The little snow leopard rubbed its paws, unable to contain itself any longer.
Suddenly.
The entire underground of the research institute shook violently, as if a violent explosion had occurred.
Xiao Qingcen, who already knew that the tribesmen had arrived, raised his tail and watched Shang Yiqi fly forward at the same time.
He quickly threw the man who wanted to run away to the ground. The latter cried out in pain, and the lines on his neck suddenly made a tearing sound after such movement.
Carmen, who followed them in animal form, was obviously not idle either. He took two steps at a time and quickly pushed the young man who had just been blown by him to the ground.
The cat's sharp claws scratched fiercely, and the clothes on the other person fell off, revealing the same stitching marks as the man's.
A black thing suddenly protruded from the man's eyeballs, as if it wanted to leave in this way. However, Xiao Qingcen, who had been exercising with yarn balls all day, was no longer the same as before. The moment the black thing came out, he couldn't help but slam his claw down and smash it into a pile of small pancakes.
I don’t know if he died like this.
Before the little snow leopard could try to pick up the black dirty pancake with its claws to check it, it was stopped by Shang Yiqi.
"Cen Cen, don't touch these." Shang Yiqi still frowned as he spoke.
The black sphere looked exactly like what he had seen after killing the impostor.
Without a doubt.
They are making a comeback.
There are even more ethnic groups than before.
The latter took out a small container from his pocket, which looked like it was used to hold balls of yarn, and stuffed the dirty black biscuit into it.
The sudden appearance of the little snow leopard, Shang Yiqi and Carmen undoubtedly scared the mercenaries present. They had guessed Shang Yiqi's identity through the snow leopard.
——It’s over.
This is probably the common thought of all the mercenaries present.
To the point that these scumbags even completely ignored the companion they had abandoned on the ground.
A black ball also popped out from the opponent's eyeball.
But just like Xiao Qingcen could flatten it with one claw, this black ball was undoubtedly held in the palm of Carmen, the three-tailed cat. In order to keep it alive, he kindly found an empty can on the table and stuffed the black ball into it.
The black balls themselves should not have any combat power. They can only move around by seizing the body of a certain creature. After being discovered, their panicked escape from the body will expose all their weaknesses.
Even someone as weak as Xiao Qingcen could easily kill them in seconds.
These things are most dangerous after they mature.
Their adult bodies are somewhat similar to spiders, and they can inject some milky white lines into the human body, using this method to control the psychological activities of others.
Shang Yiqi recalled how most of the Qianni tribe members were controlled by that imposter, and frowned slightly.
This thing had disappeared for over five hundred years, so why would it suddenly appear now? And why would it appear on a remote planet like Ancient Blue Star?
The flames blazed. A barrage of embers ripped through the building from above, burning the place down to a skeleton of steel.
"It's great that the king is okay!" The consuls crowded in front of him and looked worriedly at Xiao Qingcen's paws that had just touched something dirty.
