381 Infiltrate the Assassination (1) Underground Research Institute
381
After walking around Yutian Road, Zhang Xiao quickly locked in several uninhabited houses except for the hospital separated by a wall. By chance, one of them was suspected to be a house hiding the institute, just before he got out of the dead end of the sewer.
He didn't pay attention before, but now looking back, this house is indeed in line with his goal: old, uninhabited, black houses, and the dim street lights at the intersection, making it look very gloomy.
After carefully exploring several other houses, Zhang Xiao finally returned to where he came and looked at the house on the edge of the dead end, silently.
"Is this fate?"
After going around and back to the original place, I have to say that it feels like a sense of destiny.
This made Zhang Xiao very alert.
Since guessing that the world is likely to be conscious or simple, rigid self-defense mechanisms, Zhang Xiao has been very sensitive to things like coincidences.
Recalling the various tasks and trials given by the system made him sure that there were no so-called coincidences in this world.
Everything is fate, and it is a script that has been arranged by some existences.
But for Zhang Xiao now, none of this matters.
Whether he is vigilant or worried, all his emotions are suppressed by him into the depths of his heart, and he is now in an extreme state of restraint.
"It doesn't matter if coincidence or fate is achieved. As long as my purpose can be accomplished, it doesn't matter who can use me."
At this time, only he himself can understand the true meaning of Zhang Xiao’s words.
...
After a while, Zhang Xiao entered this empty house, he was sure that this was where he was going to find.
Because this place is different from the old unmanned houses I just discovered. It is so clean. Not to mention wild cats, wild dogs, rats, cockroaches, there are not even an ant.
Although the furniture in the room also looks dilapidated and there are abandoned rags everywhere, if you look closely, you will find that there is no gray layer in the house, and the air is actually fresher than on the street.
Where can empty houses be cleaned so clean?
Of course, this is the case as a camouflage empty house hidden in the Institute of Biochemistry.
This level cannot be described as "cleaning clean". I am afraid that using professional instruments to check, there will be very few bacteria in the room.
This is actually an isolation measure, similar to biological isolation, a physical isolation method, which may be to prevent accidental leakage of the virus.
After confirming this, Zhang Xiao immediately raised his original vigilance to the higher level, and walked in the dark like a shadow to prevent possible peeping or encountering an enemy.
Although the house in question has hidden the entrance to the institute before it is confirmed, it is always impossible to be careful and alert.
Zhang Xiao was not familiar with the assassination, but fortunately it was not forced to him.
With his current strong physical control ability and his physical fitness that approaches the peak of humanity after his life and death trials, it is definitely not difficult to avoid patrols, surveillance and play the beautiful Assassin's Creed.
In the blind spots of various lights, Zhang Xiao slowly groped forward, looking for the underground entrance of the real research room.
If there is really an entrance, it is not difficult to find it, at least for Zhang Xiao, who has drilled through the sewer next to the house.
"The underground research room will definitely not be small. So when the second floor is excluded, the direction of the sewer is eliminated, and the main search is for the direction of the first-level bedroom."
Soon, he found an abnormality in the second bedroom, which was also full of garbage, which might be the entrance.
That "abnormal" is hidden under the bed that seems to be about to collapse.
Of course, Zhang Xiao did not have the habit of drilling under the bed, but he felt that the bed with only three legs was made of steel. It was not only hard, but also like it was welded to the ground. When it could not be moved, he immediately knew that he had found the right place.
However, finding the right place does not mean you can enter. Zhang Xiao has noticed that there is no surveillance in this room. In this case, it seems that just by opening the iron bed mechanism, you can sneak in secret, but Zhang Xiao will never think that the other party will make such a low-level mistake.
Then, it is only possible that the other party is confident that this iron bed can block the snooping of outsiders, thus giving up external monitoring and reducing the risk of exposure.
Zhang Xiao didn't think he could think of a way to open the iron bed mechanism in a short time. If he relied on brute force to split the iron bed, let alone whether there was really an entrance hidden under the iron bed, at least he would have failed to sneak into this section.
When facing an enemy in the future, it is even more questionable whether he can achieve his goal.
Zhang Xiao didn't think he could play Assassin's Creed as an assassin's Unparalleled, so it was necessary to hide his actions as much as possible and not expose them before achieving his goal.
Fortunately, it's night, and he is already proficient in the ability to move shadows.
After changing his position slightly to block some moonlight outside the window, Zhang Xiao carefully felt the approach of the shadow dimension.
No, the shadow dimension is the closest alien dimension to the real space, it is always there without getting close.
The one who approaches Zhang Xiao, through his own shadow, builds a bridge between the shadow dimension and the real space.
Zhang Xiao was really talented in space abilities. Soon, he vaguely felt that his shadow had reached a deeper place, bigger and wider.
Of course, this is not because his shadow has become bigger and wider, but because his shadow connects the shadow dimension and senses the space hidden underground and is also shrouded in shadow.
With a thought, Zhang Xiao suddenly disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he was already standing in an equally dark corridor. There was darkness in front of him, and even his dim vision could not be seen clearly.
He did not move rashly. After adapting for a while, he could barely distinguish the walls and stairs, so he took steps and walked down carefully step by step.
This place is like the entrance to the abyss, quiet and terrible, as if something is hiding in the dark and quietly watching you, and it seems that at the end there are depraved monsters waiting for people to fall into the trap.
Zhang Xiao didn't know if there was a monster in the dark, but he knew that there must be monsters waiting for him at the end of this corridor.
Because even here, he could smell the strange smell of disinfectant.
He was even more sure that he had not found the wrong place.
This made him more alert, and he would not feel that he would be able to go so smoothly in the future.
"Based on the current mental power, the shadow movement can be used for about 4 consecutive times. If it is not continuous, if there is one to two minutes in the middle, it can be used for about 7 times. After that, it must be stopped, otherwise I will definitely faint."
Just like he maintains the frequency state, the more frequent and dense the shadow moves, the more mental energy is consumed. On the contrary, it can be extended to a certain extent. Of course, they all have an upper limit.
Zhang Xiao estimated that if he could freely master the frequency state, his mental power would be able to last for about fifteen minutes; if he rested at least one minute at a time, he could maintain at least about forty minutes in total, and he would increase by more than half.
But this is just empty talk now. He doesn't understand how to enter the frequency state, let alone the switch that freely controls this state.
Fortunately, frequency status is not necessary for infiltrating assassination.
Shadow movement is.
