The forest was silent, and the attackers seemed to be nowhere to be seen. However, judging from the frightened flight of the birds, there must be an enemy.

Wang Xiaoxin lay behind a rock and carefully searched the forest with a telescope, but found nothing. He then adjusted the mode to passive infrared mode, which is generally used for night observation, but can also be used to see through camouflage in dense forests, after all, human body temperature and plants are still very different.

After switching to the infrared mode, I saw a lot of animals in the forest, many of which are not available on Earth, but unfortunately none of them looked like attackers.

"Base, immediately check the image of the drone before it was shot down......" He immediately used the terminal to talk to the base.

After a while, a video was sent back from the base. At the same time, the intelligence non-commissioned officer said: "Captain, we have already processed the video, pay attention to the red circle part of the image, it is suspected that the hostile target ......"

This is apparently a screenshot of a drone footage showing a humanoid creature surrounded by red circles standing on a branch of a large tree with dense foliage. The cloaked humanoid was looking up in the direction of the drone, having just lowered its crossbow.

After seeing this creature, Wang Xiaoxin was stunned: "Hey, what is this? Elf? No, it's not Yasha's elf, but it's a bit like an invader from Kunzhou." But it's not exactly the same, it's actually black-skinned and red-eyed...... Is there so many kinds of this kind of elf-like form? It's a different world......

The creature is similar in silhouette to a human, with a slender build. The moment he looked up, Wang Xiaoxin saw the creature's face clearly, with long pointed ears and human-like facial features revealing under the hood. But its eyes are red, it has no pupils, and its hair is white. But its complexion is pitch black.

The video was accompanied by a map and a demarcated location.

Wang Xiaoxin immediately looked in the direction set by the map, but still didn't find it.

"Well, has this guy transferred? Looks like he's a warm-blooded animal, so why can't he see it in infrared mode. Could it be that this thing still has infrared stealth ability?"

There are still creatures that can achieve infrared invisibility after the revival of the aura, and some spells and equipment can also do it. Therefore, in this world, if you want to be anti-invisible, you have to consider other ways.

At this time, someone sent a communication request, and he saw that it was the No. 2 "half-dragon girl" of the special service, which is also the only one in the special service team who can recover her language ability, and she also has short-range telepathic ability, can communicate with her comrades who can't speak, and translate their meaning into human language, so she has become a communicator.

A hoarse female voice sounded at the terminal: "Report to the captain, the special service team has found suspected hostile targets, they have infrared stealth capabilities, and One's life detection ability has found them...... The specific coordinates are ......"

Then the half-dragon girl sent a map with several coordinates.

Wang Xiaoxin knew that the "quasi-phase willow" was the strongest combat effectiveness in the special service group, not only was it infinitely powerful and invulnerable, but it also had the ability to control water flow and spray venom, and it also had a variety of detection capabilities. It detects the fluctuations of living organisms, in other words, the subtle waves of neural activity.

There are many means to cover one's own heat and make infrared detection ineffective, but there are even fewer means to cover one's own nerve waves. In the eyes of "Quasi-Xiangliu", the more intelligent the creatures, the stronger the nerve waves, so the targets hiding in the woods at the moment are as dazzling as large light bulbs in his eyes.

Wang Xiaoxin and their group of five, Meng Yan, who can transform into an "electric eel essence", also has a similar electric field sensing ability, but he must change to a "combat form" before he can do it, and the humanoid state is not used.

Wang Xiaoxin looked at the map, immediately sent the coordinates to his subordinates, and gave an order: "The first squad, the second squad, pay attention, and conduct fire reconnaissance to the following coordinates." ”

"Boom, boom...... Boom Boom Boom ......"

The 40mm grenade launcher spewed out orange-red tongues of fire, and one grenade after another covered the four marked coordinate positions. Countless frightened animals and birds fled in panic.

"Dada...... "More than a dozen automatic rifles and machine guns also spewed tongues ......of fire, sending branches and leaves flying across trees.

"Ah......h

"Whoosh...... Sou...... Whoosh...... "A few arrows flew out of the woods, but because the distance was far beyond their range, they fell to the ground weakly when they were still seventy or eighty meters away from Wang Xiaoxin and them.

After the attack, the enemy finally could not hide their figures, and they appeared one after another in the infrared glasses of the officers and soldiers.

"All shoot ......" Wang Xiaoxin hurriedly gave the order to attack.

Suddenly, a continuous burst of gunfire rang out from the position.

The other party was obviously not that kind of iron-headed baby, and after trying to get close and unable to attack, they left a dozen corpses and fled to the southeast.

"Stop shooting and release stealth drones to track them. You are here to clean up the battlefield and search the forest carefully...... The Qilin battle team will follow me...... "Wang Xiaoxin issued a new order, leaving his subordinates to clean up the battlefield, and he led the five-person battle team to chase after those creatures.

Those guys were extremely agile, except for the five of them, the other subordinates couldn't keep up, and they couldn't keep up, so they simply didn't bring any of them.

The five of them had already outrun all normal humans, following behind the cloaked "elf-like creatures" at no less speed.

About thirty minutes later, Wang Xiaoxin left his footsteps in front of the entrance of a crypt.

The enemies had just run into the crypt.

Wang Xiaoxin took a closer look around the crypt. A lot of footprints left by messy shoes were found on the ground nearby, both new and old, indicating that this was a passage frequented by people.

At this time, Meng Yan threw away his gun and backpack, as well as the bits and pieces on his body, and took off his body armor, helmet, coat, and shoes. He put them in a storage ring and then threw it into his mouth

His body then changed at a rapid pace, his body swelling, his head and neck elongated, and several tentacles protruding from behind him. After more than ten seconds, he turned into a humanoid monster similar to an "electric eel spirit", with more than a dozen tentacles sticking out of his back.

The short tentacles on Meng Yan's lips trembled for a while, and he quickly said, "My electric field sensing organ has discovered them." These guys are in ambush inside, a total of 24 people, the number has increased compared to just now, and they must have joined up with the guards guarding here......"

"All the battle form!" Wang Xiaoxin ordered, and the five-person group all took off their clothes and shoes, concocted them like Meng Yan, and put the temptation into the storage ring and threw it into their mouths. This is a way for the expert groups to come up with a way to keep them in a less embarrassing position before and after changing their combat form.

Soon, the quintet turned into five tall humanoid monsters.

"Now let's go in and catch the rats. Fei Dunshan and I have the highest defense, and we go ahead to attract their attention. Fang Chang, you are the fastest, and you will be invisible, so take the opportunity to sneak attack. Li Dada, you use the biological missile to kill the head at the end. Meng Yan, you ......" Wang Xiaoxin immediately arranged the task.

"Captain, wait a minute......," Meng Yan suddenly interrupted him: "It's very humid here, I just used a microcurrent to probe, and most of them are now stepping on the water." The water here is all hard and very conductive, and I thought I could surprise them. What do you think, what does the 800 kV electric shock taste like, ho ho ......"

Wang Xiaoxin immediately agreed: "Okay, you have given them electricity first...... "Of course, it would be best to electrocute a batch of corona first."

Meng Yan walked to the entrance of the cave, the yellow plates on his body began to glow, and more than a dozen tentacles swayed, crackling and sparks. Then his entire body was levitated.

Then, a dozen tentacles quickly reached the puddles and wettest places at the mouth of the cave.

A blue arc flashed, and there were faint screams from inside......

............

Hot spring town.

"Sister Chen, the architectural design company has given you a few design drawings, which one do you think is better?"

Su Lei took out a stack of renderings of the mansion and put them on the table, and asked Chen Shiyi to come as a staff officer.

As mentioned earlier, his aesthetics are rather strange, and there is no way to talk about the beauty and ugliness of architecture. Anyway, in his eyes, a house is a house, and as long as it reaches a certain level, it doesn't look good or not. However, this time the price he opened was not low, and the architectural design company naturally gave him a good whole.

So in his opinion, it seems that each one is almost the same, which really makes his choice more difficult.

Chen Shiyi picked up those renderings and carefully watched them one by one: "Which type do you like?" Modern, Modern, Futuristic, Oriental Classical, Western Continent Classical or Southern Classical......"

"It doesn't matter, you know that I don't pick a person, it's easy to use......"

Chen Mei smiled and said, "If you pursue easy use, it will be modern and futuristic." More functional......"

"Okay, I'll leave the selection to you, anyway, if you're satisfied, I'm satisfied......" Su Lei heroically threw the matter to Sister Chen.

"Okay, I'll give us some revisions......" Chen Mei accepted the task very happily.

It's a new house, isn't it...... Thinking of this, her face turned red.

Su Lei, who lost the package, let out a long breath, and said with a smile: "By the way, Sister Chen, let's organize an interview after the Spring Festival, this time to select the staff of the Baron's Mansion." What do you think you need......?"

"I think. The butler has to have one, the assistant butler has to have one, the attendants or secretaries, cooks, drivers, housekeepers, these service personnel have at least seven or eight. Oh, according to Imperial law, you also have to prepare a private army to respond to the Imperial call if necessary, and guard the territory in peacetime......"

"Ah, there has to be an army?" Su Lei's eyes straightened. How much does that cost?

"That's right, the nobles of the fief have to prepare their own armies, although they generally don't recruit private troops below the viscount, but at least there must be a security team. However, if you don't want to raise it yourself, you can also apply for the Imperial Garrison, but you will have to pay the garrison fee. Anyway, this money is indispensable...... But I don't know the details, you can consult someone who knows how to ......," Chen Shiyi thought for a while.

"Okay, let me ask Ying Lina, doesn't his family have an army......" Su Lei immediately remembered his old classmate.
