Xiang Kun first used his computer to open a red rice cell phone that cost 1199 yuan in Jingdong. The cell phone that he had bought previously was also a 1000-yuan cell phone. After using it for more than a year, there was no need to repair it anymore.
In any case, he used to spend most of his time in front of the computer. His cell phone basically did not contain any games, and he rarely even watched videos. At most, he would browse Zhihu, Github, Csdn, and read e-books on the subway. Now, most of his energy and time were spent on training for mutations. The most commonly used function of a cell phone was to count the time and use a flashlight…
Moreover, he didn't have any income now, and he was in danger of running out of money. If he broke a cell phone that was too expensive, he wouldn't have the money to change it.
He took a look. There were goods in the warehouse in the city. They would be delivered in the afternoon.
At the same time, he found an email packet on Taobao. It was the cheapest pair of black-framed glasses. The pair of glasses from before had been shattered by the lake. He had to buy a new replacement to maintain his familiar image in front of his friends.
Then Xiang Kun began to do what he had to do every time he woke up. He began to measure and calculate the data of his body.
In terms of weight, he had gained another 1.4 kg and his weight had reached 95.4 kg.
His body temperature did not drop much. 27.4 c
Perhaps it was because of the two battles with the gigantic owl, his body had suffered heavy injuries many times, making him feel that he was in extreme danger and needed to increase his recovery speed. Therefore, the recovery speed of his knife wound had been greatly increased from 12 minutes 23 seconds to 10 minutes 55 seconds. This was even when his recovery speed was suppressed during the day. According to previous calculations, his recovery speed after sunrise was suppressed by about 20%. The recovery time after sunset should be around 9 minutes 05 seconds to 9 minutes 06 seconds. The improvement was huge.
The improvement of his sense of smell and hearing could not be calculated in detail yet, but subjectively, he could feel that the improvement was very obvious.
There was something else that surprised Xiang Kun. His bones seemed to have changed. Compared to the pictures he had in the beginning, the width of his shoulders and the length of his arms seemed to have changed. On closer inspection, it seemed like his height had also increased?
Xiang Kun stood by the wall and marked it before measuring it with a ruler.
179.7 cm, indeed higher.
Previously, during the company's physical examination, his height was 177.5 cm. Although the measurements in the morning and at night were measured at different times, the measurements would differ slightly. In university, during the physical examination, his height was also measured 178.9cm. However, even with that height as a reference, he had grown by nearly 1cm now.
Unfortunately, after the first mutation, he did not measure his height, shoulder width, and arm length. After all, he did not think that his bones would change too.
However, after the battle with the giant owl last night, he was not too surprised that his bones were starting to develop again.
He was actually thinking about the dream he had last night after drinking the owl's blood and falling asleep. It was his first dream since his body mutated on July 11.
When he first woke up, he did not pay too much attention to it. But now that he thought about it again, he suddenly realized that it was not just a dream.
The scene in his dream was similar to the one-second scene after Xiang Kun tasted the blood of the owl. They were all moving around in the owl's first sight.
This time, in the dream, Xiang Kun saw more than one second of images. There were many, but the sequence of events was very chaotic. There was no logical connection and the scenes were very dramatic. He saw them one by one.
Moreover, most of them were scenes of flying or diving. To be honest, the experience wasn't very good.
However, when Xiang Kun recalled the scene in the dream, he realized that he could "see" it again.
This was completely different from recalling the scenes he had seen in reality or other memories.
It was as if a small window had been opened in his brain, allowing him to browse through other people's experiences.
Yes, the images he saw in his dream should be the memories of the giant owl.
Previously, he had only licked a mouthful of blood, so he only obtained a scene that lasted more than one second.
Later on, Xiang Kun drank the blood of the owl and had a dream. He obtained a bunch of memories that belonged to the gigantic owl.
Could it be that the memories were really stored in his blood, and the more he drank, the more he would obtain?
He had drunk chicken blood and rabbit blood before, but he had never seen anything like it. It seemed that this characteristic only existed in mutated creatures like him and the giant owl. If the owl drank his blood, could it see his memories?
However, there was no time to arrange these images. There was no pattern at all. It was really a headache.
Perhaps it was because the owl's IQ was not high enough that its memories were in a mess, or perhaps it was because it used this method to obtain memories.
The useful information in those memories still needed time to be slowly analyzed and extracted, but there were a few points that could already be determined.
Firstly, the owl was not as special as it was born. Like Xiang Kun, it had mutated after birth. However, as to how it mutated and how it mutated, he had to slowly dig out the memories.
Secondly, the owl was just like Xiang Kun. After mutating, it relied on drinking the blood of other creatures to survive. From what he saw, the number of creatures that the owl had killed and eaten was much higher than Xiang Kun's.
Thirdly, the owl had indeed lived in the mountains. Later on, it discovered the rabbit that Xiang Kun had killed in the garbage dump and targeted Xiang Kun. However, it did not seem to be able to track Xiang Kun's location accurately. It must have been an accident for it to bump into Xiang Kun, who was searching for a dog by the lake.
As for why it had left the mountains and entered the city, there was no answer. However, from the images, Xiang Kun was indeed the first human it had attacked.
Obviously, the reason why the owl was so big and could continue to fly was because of the same mutation as Xiang Kun.
For ferocious birds like owls who needed to hunt for a living, their way of survival was to hunt. Their mutation was naturally because they had stronger hunting abilities. After their size increased, their prey became richer, and their sharp claws could even pierce through the tough skin of wild boars.
The owl's intelligence had also increased with the mutation.
Xiang Kun could not help but wonder if the monsters in history were mutated animals.
Xiang Kun even thought that if a mutated animal was raised by humans and had strong urge to communicate with humans, could it evolve its ability to speak through the mutations?
And after death, it would turn into powder and completely dissipate. Perhaps this was also the reason why legends were always legends without any evidence?
Of course, these were just guesses.
Xiang Kun had always wanted to find the same "case" as himself, but it turned out to be an owl.
Furthermore, the owl wanted to kill him. In the end, it died in his hands and drank his blood.
Xiang Kun could not help but wonder if he was the first mutated human.
