What is the experience of becoming a vampire

Chapter 47 Senior Owl

Xiang Kun originally thought that the mutation direction of that owl should mostly rely solely on animal instincts and original habits, rather than deliberately training and guiding like him.

But not far from the owl's cliff nest, a rock full of claw marks next to a stream in the forest made Xiang Kun realize that this owl was actually undergoing targeted training.

Xiang Kun did not see the claw grinding in the picture of the owl in the memory of the owl. Instead, he judged that these claw marks were left by the giant owl based on the claw spacing left on the rock.

Judging from the traces on the rock, it is not only grinding claws on this stone, but also has a large number of scratches, thorns, and jujube attacks. The traces of the claws "chiseled" can be seen very shallow in the early stage, and the later the more The deeper it came, it was obvious that the stone was attacking as an imaginary prey. Xiang Kun could also imagine that its claws must be scarred and often broken at first, but it has the ability to recover and has no impact on survival. After drinking blood mutation, the sharpness and hardness of the claws will definitely be greatly improved.

The huge and sharp claws of that giant owl are intensified by such mutations.

After discovering the training methods of owls, Xiang Kun also thought, can he imitate owls and sharpen his nails?If he also had sharp claws before, he wouldn't need any weapons anymore. Facing the giant owl, a direct attack on the black tiger would be quite lethal...

But he dismissed this idea almost instantly. After all, the structure of bird claws is different from that of human hands. The main function of human hands is to use tools.If you can mutate ten "iron claws" that can stretch freely, if you mutate your nails into beast-like pointed claws, or they are hard and long, it will not only be eye-catching, but also inconvenient to do things on weekdays. The keyboard is easy to get stuck.

Xiang Kun was still in the cave nest on the cliff of the owl and found a pile of pebbles. At first he didn't understand what the owl was doing with the pile of stones, and it didn’t seem to be laying a nest. Could this owl still give Your own "landscape"?

However, after searching the memory of owls and discovering a scene of hunting, drinking blood and actively swallowing stones, Xiang Kun had a guess:

Could this be a way for owls to suppress their sleepiness after drinking blood and return to the nest to sleep again?

You know, the wild is not like a city. There are various dangers in the mountains and dense forests.

Xiang Kun buys meat rabbits at the vegetable market and keeps them at home. They are slaughtered and drink blood when needed. After drinking, they fall asleep when they are sleepy, unless their relatives and friends cannot contact him in an urgent matter. Come to your door, otherwise there will be no interruption and no danger.

But if the owl wants to drink blood, it needs to hunt it by itself.Because if the blood leaves the body for too long, or if the prey dies for too long, it will have no effect, so basically it will directly drink blood on the spot or transfer to nearby to drink blood, instead of specifically catching the prey back to its lair— —After all, many of the prey types it hunted after mutation were not small.

In this way, if this owl is the same as Xiang Kun, it will have a strong drowsiness after drinking blood, and it will sleep for a long time and is not easily awakened, then it is dangerous to find a place to sleep in the wild.

So it swallowed the stone into its abdomen to suppress sleepiness, and it flew back to the nest, spit out the stone in the abdomen, and then fell asleep peacefully.

Otherwise, it is really impossible to explain why it swallows stones, and it happens to be spit out in the nest on the cliff wall. After all, it only drinks blood after mutating, and cannot eat other food. It does not need to swallow stones to promote digestion.

As for why it is a stone, rather than meat or other plants, which are more suitable for "eating", Xiang Kun guessed that the stone is more singular and denser. It is easier to be suppressed when you feel vomiting, and also when you feel like vomiting. It is easier to vomit clean all at once.

Of course, these are all just Xiang Kun's reasoning and guessing. If it is like this, he plans to do experiments to verify it himself after he returns.

If effective, this is also an occasional emergency solution.

It's like after a big battle with the owl that day, if he could stay awake temporarily by this method, he might be able to see the process of the disappearance of the owl's body. This is for him to understand the mutation factors in himself and the owl. There is no small help.

Of course, it is more important to avoid prolonged sleep in unsafe places.

Although the reason for this owl's mutation was not found this time, exploring the process of its mutation based on the various traces of its habitat and the comparison of memory images is also very helpful for Xiang Kun to understand himself.

After all, if one hunts and drinks blood, there will be one sleep and mutation. This giant owl has mutated too many times than Xiang Kun.

Regardless of the number of mutations or the time, it is Xiang Kun's "big predecessor."

Moreover, the four and a half days of living in the mountains also allowed Xiang Kun to better experience the improvement and changes in his body functions after this mutation, and to further familiarize and train.

In addition to the night vision ability gained from the blood of the owl, his dynamic vision, hearing, and smell have been greatly enhanced, and this enhancement is not only an increase in sensitivity.

In the mountains and forests, he has a very strong instantaneous ability to distinguish sounds and smells caused by many other creatures. This is something that Xiang Kun, who has been living in the city, did not have before-it is equivalent to having the owl's hearing and smell. "database".

This makes it very easy for him to survive in the mountains and forests, and even often feels like the world is in my grasp.

Sometimes he even thought that if he had the flying ability of an owl, it would be great.

Of course, this is just to think about it, if he really wants to mutate a pair of big wings now, then he can really only live in the mountains and forests.

...

Xiang Kun, who was running wildly on the ring road, suddenly stopped, stood on the side of the road, and looked back towards the mountain.

Naturally, here is not a "deep mountain". It is already far away from the area where he is in the past few days. Although the development is still not high and there are no people, at least the winding road has been built. There are villages on the mountain, temples, and occasionally. The villagers drove up and down the mountain, and some pilgrims went to the temple for incense.

Xiang Kun stopped because he heard the sound of a car. After ten seconds, an SUV appeared on the corner.

He raised his right hand, compared to his thumb, and gestured for a ride.

To be honest, he was actually not very hopeful. Four cars that had descended from the mountain had passed by him before, and none of them responded to the "hand of like" he extended, and had no intention of stopping.

Of course, he has no complaints about this. Even if the location changes, he is driving, and he will not stop when he sees such a tall, dusty, bare-footed bald man on the side of the road. Come down.

Anyway, he ran all the way, "cutting corners" from time to time, and he wouldn't be much slower than hitchhiking. There were too many bends on this mountain road, and no one dared to drive fast even when it came down.

He checked the map when his cell phone had a signal before. There is a big village down the mountain. It should be possible to hire a car to send him to the most advanced county or town and buy a ticket to go home.

But this time he was lucky, and the SUV slowly stopped beside him.
