Wasteland Code Survival

Chapter 84 Strange Corpse
Song Xiaodie slowly turned the infrared thermal imager at an angle, aimed at the tower at the northernmost end of the castle, adjusted the focus, and then pressed a button, and a blurry image appeared on the screen.

Although it is daytime now, the quality of the image will be affected to a certain extent, but you can still see the shape of a vast white tower - inside the tower and the shallow underground, there are no abnormal color blocks, that is to say, there There are no living things.

Of course, except for cold-blooded animals.

Because the body temperature of these cold-blooded creatures changes with the environment, their images are usually projected on the thermal imager, and they are easily confused with the surrounding environment and cannot be distinguished at all.

You still have to check it out yourself!

"Your task should be to record these images, right? It should be considered complete now! I'm going to go in and have a look. Be careful when you return to the city." Qi Lin checked his equipment again, and said to Song Xiaodie said.

"I'll go in with you." Unexpectedly, Song Xiaodie suddenly pouted with some displeasure. At the same time, as if to show that she also has a high combat power, she slightly opened the compound bow in her hand, and stared at Qi Qi with stubborn eyes. Lin, it means "If you don't let me follow you, I will shoot you in the back".

"If you think about it clearly, you might die." Qi Lin said lightly, if this girl must follow, there is no need for him to refuse. After all, a first-level evolutionary is already considered a good help, and Because of Song Xiaodie's special situation, now she and Xiaolei are the only people Qi Lin can trust in the game.

"I'll run away if I'm in danger, I don't need you to protect me." Song Xiaodie rolled Qi Lin's eyes, and Qi Lin was a little surprised to find that this girl's white eyes are quite charming, and it might be a disaster when she grows up.

"Sex is emptiness, emptiness is sex, I'm not a perverted lolicon..." Qi Lin said inwardly several times before deliberately pretending to be indifferent, and said a little coldly:

"Ahem, I didn't say I want to protect you. What I mean is, if you hang up, the attribute will be cleared. 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 come and get it when I am resurrected."

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 has any unfavorable thoughts for him. After all, in the real world now, the relationship between the two The distance is less than ten meters.

"Okay, you take care of these things, and I'll give you 5 minutes."

……

Five minutes later, Qi Lin and Song Xiaodie, who were ready, slid into the castle from the inside of the outer wall along a rope.

The two settled in a low brick house. When the castle was still inhabited, this area was for the servants in charge of various chores in the castle. It was the place with the worst living conditions in the castle. The ruins of the military camp there are still dilapidated.

However, because of the remoteness of this place, it was far away from the courtyard and square of the castle, so the two of them didn't have to worry about bumping into some mutated creature "Rua!" to give themselves a bite.

Song Xiaodie's evolutionary gene comes from an elite-level mutated Scottish Spaniel. The outstanding attribute is agility. The main weapon is an alloy compound bow, which has an active burst skill of [Hunting], which can greatly increase strength and agility in a short time. The four basic attributes of body, physical fitness, and perception can also improve one's concentration. The effect shown is that the running speed and shooting 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 20 meters behind him. This distance not only allows the two to take care of each other, but also if one of them is in danger, the other has time to escape and think again. method to support.

This is the usual position used by two of the mercenaries when performing missions—generally, recruits with little battlefield experience always like to get together together, as if it looks more secure this way, but as everyone knows, this will not only make their own The target is more conspicuous, in case of stepping on a landmine or something, there is no time to react, and if the enemy has heavy weapons, it only takes one shell to kill everyone.

"Don't make a sound, pay attention to your feet and surroundings, turn around and turn your head as small as possible..."

Qi Lin quickly entered a paragraph of text on the smart 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 a recruit who had just been recruited in the team.

In the castle, due to the low radiation of the soil here, the wild grass grows very lush, and the height reaches Qi Lin's waist. As long as the waist is bent, this grass can provide the best cover for the two of them.

As he was walking, Qi Lin suddenly felt that something had been kicked under his feet. He immediately stretched his left hand back, with the palm facing Song Xiaodie. In the tactical gesture, this means "stop moving forward".

Changing the hunting knife in his right hand to his left, Qi Lin squatted down and pushed aside the dense grass—a mummy was revealed. Obviously, it was this thing that he kicked just now.

Qi Lin turned the mummy over and saw that the corpse was wearing decayed security clothing. Although the face was extremely distorted and terrifying, it could still be seen that the security guard was a human being before death, not a zombie or a zombie.

A corpse left over from the old days?
Qi Lin inspected the corpse carefully and found that it was exactly the same as the half of the fort, with the fatal wound on the neck.

Different from the hideous wounds on the half of the corpse in the fort, the wounds on the whole body of this mummy are only two small round holes on the side of the neck.

These two round holes are just located at the position of the aorta of the neck. Qi Lin gently cut open the skin of the mummy with a hunting knife, and saw that the blood vessels under the wound were obviously ruptured and expanded, which was formed by a large amount of blood flowing through here. Mark of.

The cause of this person's death should be that something bit out two holes in his neck, and then sucked up all the blood in his body and died!

However, the more Qi Lin looked at the wound, the more he thought of a creature that only existed in legends?

Although no one has really seen this kind of creature with their own eyes, it is active in various novels, movies, and TV dramas of the old era, and it is one of the indispensable elements of many western magical works.

Legend has it that this creature is afraid of sunlight, silver, garlic and crosses, likes to haunt at night, lives by sucking human blood, and has an inexplicable relationship with bats...

only……

"... Vampires? Does such a thing really exist?"

However, if it is said to be the work of other blood-sucking beasts, why are there no other wounds except for the two holes in the neck of the corpse?
　Congratulations to WE for qualifying to the semi-finals, mommy, watching tonight's game made me almost have a heart attack. . .
