Chapter 84: Strange body

　　 Song Xiaodie slowly turned the infrared thermal imager at an angle, pointed it at the northernmost tower of the castle, adjusted the focus, and then pressed a button, and a blurred image appeared on the display.
Although it is daytime, the image quality will be affected to a certain extent, but you can still see a white tower shape-inside the tower and the shallow underground, there is no abnormal color block, that is to say, over there No creatures.
　　 Of course, except for cold-blooded animals.
　　 These cold-blooded creatures, because their body temperature changes with the environment, their images, which are generally projected on a thermal imager, are easily confused with the surrounding environment and cannot be distinguished at all.
　　 I still have to go check it out in person!
"Your mission should be to record these images, right? It should be finished now! I plan to go in and take a look. You will be careful when you return to the city." Qi Lin checked his equipment again while facing Song Xiaodie said.
"I'll go in with you." Who knows that Song Xiaodie suddenly pursed her lips a little unhappily. At the same time, she pulled the compound bow in her hand slightly, staring at Qi stubbornly, as if to show that she also had a good combat power. Lin, it means "if you don't let me follow you, I will shoot you cold arrows in the back".
"If you think about it clearly, you might hang up." Qi Lin said lightly. If this girl must follow, there is no need to refuse. After all, a first-level evolutionary is already a good help, and Because of Song Xiaodie’s special circumstances, she and Xiao Lei are now the only people Qi Lin can trust in the game.
　　 "When there is danger, I can run by myself, and you don't need you to protect me." Song Xiaodie gave Qi Lin a white look. Qi Lin was a little surprised to find that this girl's white eyes were quite charming, and it would be a disaster when she grew up.
　　 "Color is emptiness, emptiness is color, I am not a perverted loicn..." Qi Lin deliberately pretended to be indifferent after reciting a few times in his heart, and said coldly:
　　 "Ahem, I didn't say to protect you, I mean, if you hang up, you don't have to clear the attributes. If the thermal imager is lost, do you have the money to compensate your employer?"
　　 "I can hide the instrument on the city wall. If I die here, I can take it from my resurrection."
Although I don’t know why Song Xiaodie is so persistent, it seems that she is determined to follow. Qi Lin is not afraid that the other party will have any unfavorable ideas. After all, in the real world, the relationship between the two The distance is less than ten meters.
　　 "Well, you take care of these things, I'll give you five minutes."
　　……
　　 Five minutes later, Qi Lin and Song Xiaodie, who had finished their preparation, followed a rope and slid into the castle from the inside of the outer wall.
The two people settled in a low brick house. When the castle was still inhabited, this area was for the servants who were in charge of various chores in the castle. It was the place with the worst living conditions in the castle. It was better than the entrance to the castle. The ruins of the military camp are still in ruin.
　　 But it is precisely because of the remoteness of this place, far from the courtyard and square of the castle, the two of them don't have to worry about bumping into some mutant creature "Rua!" and give themselves a bite.
Song Xiaodie’s evolutionary gene comes from an elite mutant Scottish terrier. Its prominent attribute is agility. Its main weapon is an alloy composite bow. It has an active explosive skill of [hunting], which can greatly increase strength and agility in a short time. The four basic attributes of, physical fitness, and perception can also improve one's concentration. The effect shown is that the running speed and archery frequency are greatly increased. At the same time, the range, power, and hit rate of arrows can also be greatly improved.
Qi Lin walked in front, and Song Xiaodie was placed 20 meters behind him. This distance allows the two to take care of each other. Similarly, once one person is in danger, the other person will have time to get out and get out again. Find a way to support it.
This is the position commonly used by two of the mercenaries when performing tasks. Generally, recruits with no battlefield experience always like to get together, as if this seems to be more secure, but as everyone knows, this will not only make their own. The goal is more conspicuous. In case of stepping on a landmine or something, there is no time to react. If the enemy has heavy weapons, even one cannonball can kill everyone.
　　 "Don't make a sound, pay attention to your feet and surroundings, and make your turn and head turn as small as possible..."
　　 Qi Lin quickly entered a paragraph of text on the brain and sent it to Song Xiaodie. Now he suddenly had an illusion that he seemed to have returned to the battlefield a few years ago, and Song Xiaodie was just a recruit from the team.
　　 In the castle, because of the low soil radiation, the grass grows very lush, reaching the height of Qi Lin's waist. As long as the cat is on the waist, this piece of grass can provide the best cover for the two.
　　 As he walked, Qi Lin suddenly felt that something was kicked under his feet. He immediately stretched his left hand back and pointed his palm towards Song Xiaodie. In the tactical gesture, this meant "stop forward".
Changed the hunting knife in his right hand to his left~EbookFREE.me~ Qi Lin squatted down and pushed aside the dense grass-a corpse was revealed. Obviously, he just kicked this thing. .
　　 Qi Lin turned the mummy over, and saw the corpse wearing a rotten security costume. Although his face was extremely distorted and terrifying, it can still be seen that this security guard was a human before his death, not a zombie or a zombie.
　　A corpse from an old age?
　　 Qi Lin carefully inspected the corpse and found that it was exactly the same as the half of the fort, with the fatal injury on the neck.
　　 is different from the hideous wound of the half corpse on the fort. The wounds on the whole body of this dry corpse are only two small round holes on one side of the neck.
These two round holes were just at the position of the neck’s aorta. Qi Lin gently cut through the skin of the mummy with a hunting knife. Only the blood vessels under the wound had obvious rupture and expansion, which was formed by a large amount of blood flowing through here. Mark of.
　　 The cause of death of this person should be that something bit two holes in the neck, and then he sucked up the blood all over his body and died!
　　Just, why did Qi Lin look at the wound, the more he thought of a creature that only exists in legends?
　　 Although no one has actually seen this creature with his own eyes, it is active in various novels, movies, and TV series of the old age, and it is one of the indispensable elements in many Western magical works.
　　 Legend has it that this creature fears sunlight, silver, garlic, and crosses. It likes to hang out at night and feed on human blood. It has an unexplainable relationship with bats...
　　 just...
　　 "...a vampire? Does such a thing really exist?"
　　 But, if it is done by other blood-sucking beasts, why are there no scars except the two holes in the neck of the corpse?
