"Ridiculous!" Uncle Zhou scolded. "Yinlin, are you out of your mind? How can Yelai withstand the attacks from Gaze? With your Rank Four physique, there's no way you can endure a close-range assault."
With Zhang Yinlin's willingness to sacrifice himself and his eagerness to save others, Uncle Zhou calmed down. He took a deep breath and sighed.
"I was reckless. I shouldn't have tried to make direct contact to check their body temperature. Even if I used my hand to feel it, it would be hard to determine accurately. After all, Xiaoli and the others are frightened, and their bodies will secrete adrenaline, causing their temperatures to rise. Trying to assess their temperature now could easily lead to a misjudgment."
"What should we do then? If we can't determine their temperature, is there another way?" the Squad Captain said, feeling a headache coming on.
Before he could finish, Uncle Zhou immediately interjected. "Let me handle it. The only way to judge Gaze's host is through body temperature. Let's measure theirs first; we can rule out as many as possible."
"No way, Uncle Zhou! You just said that doing this is dangerous and that I shouldn't go. Why are you volunteering now?"
"You can't go because you're Rank Four. I'm Rank Three; I can handle being possessed."
They bickered back and forth, each wanting to step up and take responsibility. Just as they were caught in a brief argument, Yelai interrupted them.
"Yinlin, what are you all arguing about?"
"Who said you had to take risks to determine Gaze's host? I haven't even spoken yet." He didn't turn around but fixed his gaze on Xiaoli and the other six, continuing calmly, "Just stand there and don't move. It's just about finding out who Gaze has possessed; there's no need for everyone to rush in and offer themselves up."
His words carried a hint of mockery mixed with exasperation, leaving Yinlin and the others stunned.
Then Zhang Yinlin was the first to catch on to Yelai's implication. "Yelai, do you have a way to find out who Gaze has possessed?"
"Of course," Yelai replied as he stepped in front of Xiao Jun and the others, his nostrils flaring slightly as he continued speaking.
Others discovered that the only way to identify Gaze was through body temperature, but I have a faster method.
As the last word fell from my lips, Yelai took a deep breath, his nostrils flaring.
In the next moment, a strange smile appeared on Yelai's face, the corners of his mouth curling upward. Without any warning, he suddenly lunged forward and threw a punch directly at the face of the team member standing farthest to the left among the three Xiaoli.
It was as if he had been struck by a massive hammer. The team member's face caved in, and his nasal bone shattered in an instant. With tremendous inertia, the team member was sent flying backward.
A hundred meters away, Zhang Yinlin and the others heard the commotion coming from Yelai's direction, their hearts racing with shock.
Had they just found Gaze? Or had Gaze ambushed Yelai?
They dared not open their eyes, fearing that Gaze might take advantage of them; instead, they strained their ears to listen intently for clues about the situation.
On the other side, while Zhang Yinlin and the others were eager to understand what was happening, Xiao Jun and Xiaoli were terrified.
"Brother Ye Lai?" Xiao Jun whimpered.
He didn't know how to react; upon hearing the loud commotion nearby, his lack of composure made him want to open his eyes despite not having the steadiness of an adult.
"Xiao Jun, don't be afraid. Brother Ye Lai has found Gaze, and he's dealing with it now. Just keep your eyes closed, okay?"
Xiao Jun nodded heavily.
At that moment, he didn't even realize that because he could only listen and not see, he was tightly closing his eyes out of fear, gripping his phone so hard that his knuckles turned white.
And after hearing the noise, his body instinctively leaned toward the source of the sound.
The mobile camera captured the intense battle between Yelai and Gaze in sharp clarity.
On the other side, it was the team member who was being beaten, specifically Gaze.
