What It’s Like Being a Vampire

　　 Chapter 40 Prey

　　 When he saw the paw, Xiang Kun realized that the picture he saw was from the perspective of that giant owl, and it should not be real time.

　　 In other words, what I just saw was the picture in the memory of that owl?

　　 In Xiang Kun’s understanding, the memory of a general animal should be stored in various neurons in the brain, and he just swallowed a little blood, not the owl’s brain. What is the principle?

　　 temporarily put aside the speculation about the principle, this short picture of more than one second also contains a lot of information.

　　 The rabbit in the torn garbage bag in the picture seems to have been killed when he drank blood.

　　 Xiangkun can't help but think of the legends in various vampire literary works. People who have been bitten by a vampire without death will also be transformed into a vampire. As if there is a virus in the vampire's saliva, the people who get it will be transformed. Maybe this owl mutated because it ate the rabbit that got his saliva?

　　 But Xiang Kun immediately rejected this guess because:

　　1, when he took the blood from the rabbit, he put the blood in the container and then drank it, and did not let his saliva get on the rabbit.

　　2, in the picture he saw, "self" had very huge claws, and it was obviously a giant owl that had mutated.

　　 Xiangkun recalled the surrounding scenery in the picture for more than one second and made a judgment that it should be in the garbage dump.

　　Is this giant owl, after finding the rabbit by chance, became interested in him, so he found it?

　　 But if this is the case, the owl should attack itself directly, why is it catching mice and dogs?

　　 can't use this behavior to attract him deliberately, to lure him to this remote place, right? He met the dead mouse and was interested in the special smell left by the owl on the dead mouse, but it was completely accidental. If he wanted to deliberately attract his attention, the dead mouse should be thrown on his balcony. Besides, if you really want to find a remote place to attack him, then when he is in that hill these days and nights, it is a better chance.

　　 This owl should be the same as him. Is it a mutated creature for some reason?

　　 As for why he wanted to attack him, Xiang Kun also understood after tasting the blood of the giant owl-this was to treat him as food.

　　 He also suddenly realized why the dead mouse died miserably but was not eaten. This owl, like him, probably had its entire digestive system mutated and only drank blood instead of meat.

　　 Such a huge body should also be the result of mutation.

　　 And the owl threw the carcass of the mouse into the mountain, and threw the carcass of the husky into the lake, maybe... was it destroying the corpse?

　　 Xiangkun looked at himself in the moonlight, his body was covered with mud and blood, his T-shirt had been taken off, his upper body was naked, and he looked like this. If he was walking on the road and was seen, he would have to call the police? …Or shake the tone when shooting a video?

　　 Although it is past early morning, there is not a single person on the road.

　　 And when he returned to the community, he would definitely attract the attention of the security guards. This was something he didn't want to see.

　　 After thinking for a while, Xiang Kun walked to the lake not far away, and jumped directly into the conversation by the lake. His body immediately sank into the mud, not to his waist.

　　 simply washed the blood stains off his body with the lake water, and then climbed up from the lake. The pants were also covered with silt, and the original blood stains were no longer visible.

　　 returned to the community where he lived, such an embarrassing appearance naturally attracted the attention of the security guard at the door.

　　 Xiang Kun responded with a wry smile: "Going for a run, I accidentally fell into the lake."

　　 The security guard looked dazed, and then looked at Xiang Kun walking into the community with sympathetic and caring eyes.

　　 Going home naked, muddy and wet, Xiang Kun quickly threw the wet pants and shoes directly into the trash can, then took a brief shower and sat down in front of the laptop.

From the search engine, Xiang Kun learned that the world’s largest owl is the hairy-legged fish owl, with a body length of 70-77cm and a weight of 1.5-5.5kg. As a bird, it is already very large, but compared to Xiang Kun at night The giant owl I encountered was still several times smaller.

Birds that reach 1.5 meters or 1.6 meters in length and weigh tens of kilograms are not uncommon, such as ostriches, emu, and cassowaries, but these birds may run fast on the ground, but they cannot fly because they are too heavy. Up.

　　 Xiangkun searched the pictures of various owls again, and felt that the appearance of the giant owl was more similar to the Great Grey Owl, with a large and round head, a very obvious face and no ear clusters. However, compared to the picture of the Great Grey Owl he found, the giant owl he saw had significantly darker feathers and did not have any white spots. It was hidden in the dark in the dark and was very difficult to find.

　　 Such a big owl, appearing near the city, as long as it is seen by people, it will definitely attract great attention!

　　 There are so many surveillances on the street now. Almost everyone has a mobile phone. Almost all mobile phones can take photos and video. As long as they are seen, they will be easily captured.

Therefore, Xiang Kun searched the Internet with keywords such as giant bird, giant owl, strange bird, etc., but after not getting the desired results, he further expanded the search keywords and used crawler scripts to assist in the city and surrounding areas. Search and grab information in local forums and post bars in three cities.

　　 But judging from the results, no one found this giant owl.

The only thing Xiang Kun thought might be somewhat related was a post on a post bar in a certain county in a neighboring city. Some people said that he was taken aback when he saw a person standing on a tree in their village looking at him at night. I wanted to take a light on the phone, but the person disappeared.

　　 Judging from the description, it is probably the giant owl. Xiang Kun almost mistakenly thought it was a person in a coat standing on the tree.

　　 It's a pity that the person reacted a little bit slowly and didn't take the picture.

From the previous tracking of the giant owl and the one-second-plus footage he saw, Xiang Kun felt that this giant owl should have an IQ far superior to that of its kind, and it was deliberately avoiding humans. It appears around the city in the middle of the night, and hides in some hidden places during the day without appearing.

　　 This giant owl either just mutated and became such a giant not long ago, or it should have lived in the deep mountains and old forests before, and it is understandable that it has not been found while deliberately avoiding humans ~www.novelmtl.com~.

　　 Otherwise, if you stay around the city for a long time, even if you are careful, it will be difficult for such a big giant bird to completely avoid the sight of human beings.

　　 If it came out of deep mountains and old forests, what was the reason for it? Was this owl deliberately looking for it and found the rabbit carcass thrown at Kun in the trash, or was it just discovered by accident?

　　 These questions have no answers for the time being.

　　 The giant owl used Xiang Kun as a prey before, and now Xiang Kun is also interested in the giant owl.

　　 He felt that perhaps from this owl, he could find the reason for the series of changes in himself.

Of course, the blood of that owl is also what he needs very much. He can be sure that the blood of this owl is far more energy to the body than any blood he has tasted before, such as rabbit blood, chicken blood, duck blood, etc. many.

　　According to the original law, today he will feel hungry and drink blood. The family has already bought three meat rabbits. This time he will increase the blood consumption and take the blood of two rabbits.

　　 He can advance the time of drinking blood, start now, and then wait until he wakes up, if it is still 25 hours, it should be tomorrow morning, just to go out at night to find the giant owl.

　　 One more blood drink and one more mutation, regardless of strength, recovery ability, sensory ability will also have a certain improvement, it will be a lot of help for him to fight against that owl.

　　 But Xiang Kun was a little worried. What should I do if the owl is frightened after the fierce fight at night, or thinks his prey is too difficult to deal with, so he gives up and leaves?

　　 If it pierced back into the deep mountains and old forests, several tens or hundreds of kilometers away, Xiang Kun would not be able to track it.
