What It’s Like Being a Vampire

The huge "raptor" was huddled in the dense forest at the mountain col, in a state of invisibility, motionless, and seemed to be resting.

It didn't know that several small drones hidden in the canopy of trees a few hundred meters away from it had firmly locked onto its position even though they didn't make any movements.

Mr. Liang, who was farther away, naturally knew its location very well.

The reason why we are not attacking now is not to observe, but to wait for equipment.

At this moment, his driver Lao Xie was driving in his direction. Of course, driving will definitely not reach their location at this time, and drones will be sent to pick up the equipment.

During this time, Mr. Liang had roughly figured out the various specificities of the "giant raptor". He no longer wanted to play the "game" of chasing you with this big bird, so he decided to put this big bird here. The bird was captured alive.

This mountainous area is far away from the main scenic spot of Wushu Mountain. There are no villages within a certain range of the surrounding area. Except for the occasional patrols by people from the forestry department, basically no one sets foot here. It is a good place to get started.

While waiting for the equipment, Mr. Liang was still thinking about a question——

How did this "giant raptor" become like this?

Even if it is a "blood-eating creature", if it wants to have a dramatic mutation or evolution in appearance or physical characteristics, it must basically meet two conditions.

One is to predatoryly drink blood from other "blood-eating creatures", and the other is to have a harsh enough external environment to force them.

Like him, he is probably the only "blood-eating creature" that forces himself and actively chooses the direction of mutation and evolution without external pressure.

Mr. Liang thought of the video and photos of a thunderstorm in Zihuan Mountain in Citong City, and a suspected "giant raptor" flying away with flames.

Maybe that terrifying lightning storm was the external environment that caused the "giant raptor" to undergo such big changes in a short period of time?

This can also explain why it can withstand electric shocks and transfer the heat generated during the electric shock to the outside of the body.

But the question is, why did it get caught in a lightning storm in that place?

With the maneuverability of the "giant raptor", he can leave before the weather gets bad, and the scope of the lightning storm is not large. When he senses that the lightning storm is about to break out,

They can all fly away in time and are unlikely to be trapped in a lightning storm and be covered in fire.

Could it be... that it was deliberately attacked?

This "giant raptor" also has the consciousness to use the harsh environment to adjust its own evolutionary direction?

Judging from the previous chase, Mr. Liang was reluctant to believe this. But judging from the fact that this "giant raptor" has many experiences of predatory blood-drinking, it seems reasonable that it is such a "chosen bird".

It seems that there is some objective reason that affects or guides its evolution.

With a thought in his mind, Mr. Liang tapped a tiny bump next to his ear, and a projection screen appeared in front of his eyes, with several documents opened on it - only he could see these projections, through his Implementation of related technologies inherited in the cornea.

These documents were all briefings sent from various places during his pursuit of the "giant raptor", and his attention was instantly locked on the investigation briefing sent by Zhou Rui from Chongyun Mountain.

With a slight shake of his head, the other documents in his sight disappeared instantly, and only Zhou Rui's briefing filled the entire visual projection area.

I quickly read the briefing, including relevant news information, photos taken during on-site investigations, photos of the winged ants found, close-ups, simple research reports, and videos of lightning storms shot from a distance that were circulated on the Internet earlier. , Mr. Liang’s uncovered eyes moved slightly, thoughtfully.

Of course he knew that the "invisible insect" had been preyed upon by the "giant raptor" and no longer existed in this world. Those special "flying ants" in the Chongyun Mountains must be related to the "invisible insect" Nothing to do.

When that lightning storm occurred, the "giant raptor" was also in the process of being chased by him, so it must have nothing to do with this big bird.

But judging from Zhou Rui's findings, those "flying ants" may indeed be related to other "blood-eating creatures".

And judging from the videos taken by netizens, the type of lightning storm that occurred in Chongyun Mountain is indeed similar to the lightning storm in Zihuan Mountain.

Considering the huge strides in evolution of this "giant raptor", Zhou Rui may have been fooled. This lightning storm may have some inner connection with the mutation of the "blood-eating creature".

Mr. Liang didn't think much about it, and simply asked Zhou Rui to continue the investigation according to his ideas, and sent a message to Fang Pingfang in Star City, asking her to take Ye Chong and Li Shijue back to Haixi Province to participate in the investigation, and ordered Ye Chong to return to Haixi Province to participate in the investigation. At the same time, all resources of "Shenxing Technology" within Jianzhou City can be mobilized to the maximum extent to provide multi-faceted support.

If everything goes well with him, he might stop by and take a look.

Anyway, it is very close to Chongyun Mountain.

It was not until nightfall that the "giant raptor" changed places and landed on a hilltop two kilometers away in a straight line. It seemed that it had completely escaped Mr. Liang's pursuit.

Because its position was still firmly locked, Mr. Liang did not move. The dozens of drones also did not move. Only a few micro drones circled to the opposite side of the "Giant Raptor" to monitor it from a distance.

After this period of pursuit, Mr. Liang has a very clear understanding of the sensory alert range of this big bird. He knows how far away it is, what type of drone he uses to spy on it, and how much movement it can cause without being noticed by it.

That "giant raptor" is not only visually invisible, but its body temperature sometimes fluctuates and changes with the environment. If it were other ordinary people, even if it locked the target through the camera on the drone for a short time, even with infrared As a supplement, the thermal imaging system can easily lose the target.

Even Mr. Liang, who was very experienced in dealing with "blood-eating creatures" and had special abilities, lost track of him several times at the beginning.

But now, he has fully mastered the characteristics of this big bird. Unless the "giant raptor" can burst out with extremely fast speed in a short period of time to directly throw away all the drones, or destroy all the drones, otherwise, in his Under manual locking, the "Giant Raptor" is in an area and cannot be hidden once it is discovered.

In the second half of the night, several medium-sized drones dragged a box over a mountain and slowly landed next to Mr. Liang.

This box is actually not big, almost the size of a full-tower chassis.

Mr. Liang did not need any lighting. He pressed his hand on a screen on the surface and opened the box.

Inside the box are some accessories with no apparent purpose, all of different sizes.

Mr. Liang casually picked up a metal plate that was about the size of a mobile phone and placed it on the back of his left hand. The metal plate seemed to be suddenly activated and integrated with his left hand.

Then one component after another was "installed" on Mr. Liang's body and turned into corresponding "equipment".

After a while, his whole body was covered with various "devices", and these "devices" all seemed to grow on his body, completely integrated with him, and did not require any pendants, straps or buckles to fix them. , as if it were his organ, part of him.

These "equipments" are one of the most direct research results of "Shenxing Technology" in recent years. However, all "equipments" can only be used by him and are specially made for him. Only he can exert these "equipments". device”’s strongest capabilities.

After installing the equipment, Mr. Liang stretched his limbs and then started running on the mountainside.

There were only five or six steps in the entire approach. At the last step, his thighs bent, and the two power-assist devices attached to his thighs immediately started operating, adding to his already powerful pedaling force.

Mr. Liang's figure shot into the air like a sharp arrow. After flying four or five meters, the bulging "equipment" on his back snapped out a pair of long and thin wings.

The wings seemed to be folded, but once unfolded, they seemed to become extremely strong, allowing Mr. Liang to fly into the sky.

Not only does it have a pair of wings, but there are also two small jet engines on Mr. Liang's waist to propel him forward quickly.

Mr. Liang controls the equipment on his body just like he controls his own organs, and does not need to operate it with his hands or other limbs. Of course, in terms of proficiency, there is still no way to fully master the skills. In terms of perception, it is not as good as the original organ.

Mr. Liang flew directly to the location of the "giant raptor" at an extremely fast speed. During the flight, his body directly entered the invisible state, and even the "devices" attached to his body disappeared. He could only Two contrails were faintly visible.

…

Xiang Kun took "001" and "002" and more than a thousand "flying worker ants" and "little worker ants" into the northern mountainous area of ​​Wushu Mountain.

The reproduction speed of ants is already extremely fast, and under the catalysis of Xiang Kun's methods, the reproduction speed is even more astonishing. The speed at which eggs hatch into ants has also been accelerated many times.

In a very short period of time, Xiang Kun was able to establish a huge ant colony in the mountains.

Of course, under this kind of catalysis and transformation, those worker ants also have some flaws, but for what Xiang Kun wants to do, these many flaws can be ignored.

According to Xiang Kun's plan, he planned to use "Zero Zero Two" to give birth to some colonial ants in two or three days, and then distribute five to eight secondary queens to establish a new colony.

Xiang Kun then "tune" the behavioral patterns and ability derivation directions of these secondary ant colonies by influencing the external environment.

When encountering some details that he cannot control specifically, he can let "Zero Zero One", the absolute overlord-level worker ant, intervene within the colony.

In Xiang Kun's opinion, under the dual dominance of environmental selection and internal genetic variation selection, coupled with the competition between several communities, he should be able to "tune" a "mutated creature" that suits his liking in a short period of time and can be used to disguise "mutated creatures". "Pseudo·mutant ant" colony.

But what he didn't expect was that on the first night he entered the mountain, he discovered other "mutated creatures".
