What It’s Like Being a Vampire

　　 Chapter 47 Senior Owl

　　 Xiangkun originally thought that the mutation direction of that owl should mostly rely solely on animal instincts and original habits, instead of 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.

　　 Xiangkun was in the memory of the owl, and did not see it grinding its claws, but based on the claw spacing left on the rock, it was determined that these claw marks were left by the giant owl.

Judging from the traces on the rock, it is not only grinding its 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 at first its claws must be scarred, and even often broken, 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 have been strengthened 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 the 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 sharp 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 look like he was laying a nest. Could this owl still give Your own "landscape"?

　　 But 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 their nest to sleep again?

　　 You should know that 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 and fall asleep. Unless his relatives and friends cannot contact him in an emergency, it is possible. Come to the door, otherwise there will be no interruption and no danger.

　　 But the owl wants to drink blood and needs to hunt by himself. 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 own lair— —After all, many of the prey types it hunted after it mutated were not small.

　　 In this way, if this owl is the same as Xiang Kun, it will have a strong sleepiness 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 the abdomen to suppress sleepiness, until it flew back to the nest and spit out the stone in the abdomen, 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 mutated, and cannot eat other food, and 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 single and denser, and 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 just Xiang Kun's reasoning and guessing. If it is like this, he is going to do experiments to verify it himself after he returns.

　　 If effective, this is also an occasional emergency method.

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, more importantly, you can 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 from the various traces of its habitat, combined with the comparison of memory pictures, is also very helpful for Xiang Kun to understand himself.

　　 After all, if you follow a hunting and drinking blood, there will be a sleep and mutation. This giant owl has mutated too many times than Xiang Kun.

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

　　 And these 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 the mutation, and he further familiarized and trained.

　　 In addition to the night vision ability acquired 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 directly having the owl's hearing and smell. "database".

　　 This makes his survival in the mountains and forests very easy~www.novelmtl.com~ There is often a feeling that the world is in my control.

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

　　 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.

This side is naturally not a "deep mountain". It is far away from the area where he is in these 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, there are temples, and occasionally. The villagers drove up and down the mountain, and some pilgrims went to the temple for incense.

　　 Xiangkun 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, sitting in a gesture of asking for a ride.

　　 To be honest, he is actually not very hopeful. Four downhill cars have passed by him before, and none of them responds to his "like hand" and has 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 mobile 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 home.

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