Chapter 51 What the Hell!

Hao Ren studied the new changes in his body with great interest. He firmly believed that this was the physical strengthening effect that Raven 12345 had promised before. There was no doubt about it - it was impossible for normal people to see two things with the naked eye under the cover of night. It was impossible to reach a tree branch three kilometers away, even in broad daylight, but Hao Ren found that it was quite easy.

This unexpected joy even made him temporarily forget about the things at the castle, and instead concentrated on tossing his eyes. He found that the sudden super night vision ability and amazing sight range did not bring any inconvenience at all. He can only see thousands of meters at night when he concentrates. Under normal circumstances, his vision does not change at all. It is as if his eyes have a highly intelligent night vision zoom lens. Switching in the middle Do as he pleases, just like... just like he was born with this ability.

"That raven didn't trick anyone this time," Hao Ren happily pressed his temples, "She said at the time that the physical strengthening program would be slowly opened up as I adapt to my ability, and there would be absolutely no side effects. Look now. Well...at least this vision can be controlled quite smoothly."

"Humph, isn't it just that I can see further at night, which makes you happy?" Vivian snorted disdainfully, "Your eyesight has improved, haven't your other physical qualities changed?"

"You can't say that. I started out as an ordinary person, but if I have some special abilities, I am completely transformed," Hao Ren said seriously, "Think about yourself, you usually don't have more than two hundred dollars in your pocket, right? , if one day you suddenly have a thousand yuan in your pocket and you can't lose it, how will you feel?"

Vivian was startled, and then her whole face brightened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Hao Ren spread his hands and said, "Look, there is a truth."

At this time, Lily finally cleaned the straw sticks and sand out of her hair. She looked at the castle not far away: "When are we going in? Landlord, why hasn't that connector sensor you mentioned shown up yet?"

"It stands to reason that it's time to show up." Hao Ren then remembered the business of his trip. He touched the back of his head strangely, and then took out the data terminal, "Hey, do you have any new news?"

"No, this aircraft has not received the updated mission information, and the target person has not yet appeared. It is recommended that the aircraft owner wait at the current location."

Such a sentence appeared above the data terminal, and it entered the standby state again. Hao Ren knocked on the casing a few times, and a line appeared on the device: "This machine is thinking about life, please do not disturb if there is no important event." There was movement.

"Another one who slipped up at a critical moment." Hao Ren looked at the data terminal that had not been very easy to use since he got it, and then focused on the small camp not far away. "I can't even see them. Go to the castle to investigate the situation. Aren't these people here to catch ghosts? Are they just waiting outside the castle?"

"Maybe you are a little worried about the situation in the castle, and it has collapsed into such a ruin. Who would dare to enter it casually," Vivian said, looking up at the moon, "The moonlight is being blocked by clouds. If there are really undead spirits, This should be the time.”

As soon as he said this, Hao Ren suddenly became nervous. However, the "professional ghost hunters" not far away seemed to be still ignorant. Those ghost fans (ghost fans) holding strange detectors and wearing strange clothes , is that the right word?) People gathered in twos and threes in front of the lights of tents or carts. Some were laughing loudly, some were talking mysteriously and quietly, and some simply spread out picnic cloths and invited a few acquaintances. Even eating and drinking. It was late at night, but no one looked tired, like a group of nocturnal animals. However, the atmosphere was more like a masquerade party than an exorcism battle. The big European man who came in the carpool with Nangong was already familiar with hooking up with a few drunkards. Went together.

Angus, the hotel owner who drove Nangong and others here, seemed unwilling to participate in the late-night party of these "professionals". The fat uncle said a few words to Nangong, then staggered back to the car, and then They started the car and left this small campsite. It seemed that Nangong and the others only asked Angus to bring them over and had no intention of going back tonight.

Among the crowds of paranormal enthusiasts dancing wildly, Nangong and the Indian monk became the two most eye-catching people: they did not go to the busiest tent to brag with others, nor did they carry any weird spiritual body detectors Taking a sharp photo in the direction of the castle, there were several "ghost hunters" who were drinking nearby and dressed like medieval alchemists, loudly calling for them to come over and drink together. Nangong and the Indian monk turned a deaf ear to it, and they just found each other. In a quiet place, he sat on the floor and checked his tools.

Nangong opened his black suitcase and took out a small, strange-looking crossbow. This crossbow was more like a work of art than a weapon. Its size made people doubt how lethal this thing could be. Nangong carefully placed the hand crossbow close to his body, then took out a black cloth strip with many small silver arrows tied to it from the suitcase and wrapped it around his waist. Finally, he took out a monocle from the mezzanine of the suitcase that looked like a filming prop. Wearing it on your face means you are ready for something.

The Indian monk next to him took out a small pot of spices from his colorful robes, and kept sprinkling some spices on himself and the ground around him. He looked solemn and muttered something, completely unlike those around him. A paranormal enthusiast with impetuous behavior and ridiculous equipment. Even just from the expression on his face and the calmness of his temperament, this skinny Indian monk looks more like a genuine demon hunter than Nangong. Hao Ren's eyes almost completely fell. In this monk, he felt a vague master's temperament from the latter.

But this kind of expert temperament is obviously not felt by everyone. Next to the Indian monk is the group of European men who organized a picnic. When they saw the skinny old man carrying spices with him, they immediately sent a representative over and took the spice from the old man’s hand. I bought a box of spices and went back...sprinkled them on the barbecue...

Hao Ren immediately gave up any hope for these professional ghost hunters.

Is this **** all here to die? !

"Look at those two people," Hao Ren pointed in the direction of Nangong and the Indian monk. His suddenly alienated eyes came in handy now. Every move of the two people was clearly visible to him, "They are still It’s really like that, it feels like it’s completely different from the other people around me.”

"Well, it looks like he has some reputation," Vivian frowned, "I originally thought that Nangong was just a pure liar, but I didn't expect that he really knows his stuff. Those small silver arrows are not only made of silver, but they also contain special repellent properties. The magic ingredient, you see the moonlight shining on the arrowhead, the refracted light has a light blue color. And the spices that the Indian monk sprinkled on my body made me very uncomfortable...I feel uncomfortable even from such a distance."

Hao Ren was suddenly shocked: How could a high-ranking vampire like Vivian, who could almost be described as a living fossil, be afraid of the spices that the Indian monk sprinkled on her body?

Could it be that this Indian monk who suddenly appeared is really a hidden master? !

"I don't like curry," Vivian frowned. "When I went to India to eat curry, I was upset for a long time."

Hao Ren: "..."

At this moment, Hao Ren noticed that the moonlight around him suddenly dimmed. He looked up and saw that the thick clouds had finally completely blocked the moon.

Whether it was an illusion or not, the moment the moonlight was blocked, Hao Ren vaguely heard a low whistling sound from the surrounding wind.

"There is movement over there in the castle!" Lily's tail suddenly exploded, and her golden eyes were extremely bright, "There is light!"

Hao Ren didn't need Lily to remind him that he also saw the strange movement in the direction of the castle. Almost at the same time that the moonlight in the sky was blocked, several faint lights appeared in the completely collapsed ruins. This light lasted for a few seconds and gradually faded away. Disappeared, but reappeared in other parts of the castle a moment later. At the same time, bursts of howling wind also came from the ruins of the castle - but now there is no wind at all nearby!

Hao Ren swallowed: "Damn... there's really a ghost!"
