What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 42: The Animal World

Even though he had fought close to him once before, Xiang Kun still felt a little shocked when he saw the tall owl standing on the rock under the moonlight like an adult.

Xiang Kun maintained a high degree of vigilance. He was reading the body language of the owl, and he could clearly feel that the owl was jealous and afraid of him.

But it didn't flap its wings and fly away as soon as it found itself - if that was the case, I would definitely not be able to catch up, so I could only continue to follow the direction it flew away slowly, but in that case, it would be difficult before dawn. found it.

And with the owl's perception ability, when it found him, it had already found itself, and it just had to fly away, there was no way for it to do so.

If it doesn't fly, it proves that it has other ideas...

Or, for some reason, it is temporarily unable to fly.

Or, it was still a little unwilling and wanted to kill Xiang Kun.

According to Xiang Kun's judgment, the second reason is more likely.

Whatever the reason, this is his opportunity.

However, he didn't dare to rush up to do it directly, for fear of scaring the owl away, it would be best to let it attack on its own initiative.

Xiang Kun stopped at a distance of more than ten meters from the owl, because he noticed that the owl's body moved slightly backwards, as if showing signs of retreating, probably because he observed that his recovery was better, so he was ready to escaped.

Xiang Kun's mind was spinning rapidly. This confrontation would definitely not last long. As time went by, the more that owl felt that it could not take advantage, the more it would choose to flee.

Xiang Kun slowly lifted the screwdriver in his hand, put it in his mouth and bit it, then slowly took out the Swiss Army Knife from his pocket, opened the blade, and moved as slowly and gently as possible to avoid frightening the owl, allowing it to directly fly away.

After opening the blade of the swiss army knife, Xiang Kun took the knife and made a long cut on his left arm.

The blood flowed out quickly, and then dripped down the elbow to the ground drop by drop.

Xiang Kun put the knife in his left hand again, and also made a long cut on his right arm.

So he showed the wounds on his arms to the owl.

He had licked the blood left on his arm by an owl before, and felt his body's strong thirst for that blood, so he guessed that the owl was probably also coveting his blood.

The reason why this giant owl attacked him by the lake should not be purely because of its aggressiveness, but its purpose of hunting.

Otherwise, if it has the habit of attacking human beings, it should have been exposed long ago, and it does not conform to the behavior habits it displays.

The owl's blood has a strong temptation to Xiang Kun. It is not purely a sensory desire for delicious food, but a cry from the body's instinct. This kind of temptation is higher than the general animal's desire for food.

Xiang Kun thought he was more rational and restrained, and still needed a lot of perseverance to resist the temptation of blood. In fact, the big reason why he chose to face this extremely dangerous giant owl at the risk of appearing here is also because of the need for blood.

Even if the giant owl had a higher IQ than other animals, he didn't believe that this beast could really have such a strong control.

The wound on the hand no longer oozes blood within ten seconds, the blood becomes viscous and lacks fluidity, and the wound begins to slowly close together from both ends.

So Xiang Kun took another cut with a swiss army knife to let the blood continue to flow out.

While showing his wound and blood to the owl, he slowly took two steps forward. Xiang Kun noticed that the owl's posture had obviously become aggressive.

It can't help it!

The owl's pair of giant wings opened suddenly, flapped and flew towards the top of Xiang Kun's head, and then snapped down,

Spread the claws and press down on Xiang Kun.

Xiang Kun's attention has been kept at a high level of concentration, and his sensory ability has reached its peak. He can even hear the heartbeat and breathing of the owl.

So when the owl was just about to attack, he had already realized it in advance.

When the owl rose into the air, Xiang Kun had already taken the screwdriver he was biting into his hand, lowered his center of gravity, and was ready to attack.

Xiang Kun's dynamic visual ability was also brought to the extreme, firmly locked on the owl's position in the air, without dodging or flinching at all, and when the owl pounced down on his head, he also charged up with all his strength.

Xiang Kun's plan was very clear, no matter if he hit other parts of the owl with a fist or a screwdriver, it might hurt or even seriously damage it, but it was very difficult to make it lose the ability to fly and fight back.

So his goal is very clear, the owl's eyes!

And it was the eye that was blinded by him before and has not fully recovered yet!

Xiang Kun's reaction was completely beyond the expectation of the giant owl. It has a much higher IQ than ordinary owls. It can even tell that Xiang Kun is deliberately tempting it with blood and forcing it to attack, but it really can't stand such a temptation , I don't want to bear it anymore.

In its judgment, facing its attack, Xiang Kun's first reaction should be to dodge and then fight back, just like before at the lake, so its first pounce did not do its best, and it was confident After Xiang Kun dodged, he caught it with the second pounce, and then took it directly into the air, into its real home court.

However, Xiang Kun did not dodge to the side, but jumped up directly to meet it, so that it could cope with the failure. In addition, the eyes on one side had not yet recovered, and the vision was deviated, allowing Xiang Kun to pass between the two paws and fly in the air. Hold it!

While hugging the owl, Xiang Kun used a screwdriver to insert it into the owl's eyes, then pulled it out, and inserted it in again!

With a shrill cry, Xiang Kun fell from the sky with the huge owl in his arms, rolled down the mountain, and soon hit the tree trunk and bounced off, the screwdriver flew out, but Xiang Kun still hugged the owl tightly and did not let go .

The owl didn't die immediately either, and fought back desperately. The two fought hand-to-hand on the ground again, this time it was a more brutal fight.

...

The warm sunlight fell on his face, and Xiang Kun slowly opened his eyes.

He found himself lying sprawled on the hillside, with one leg hanging from a tree trunk, his body stuck in the weeds, like a S.

He retracted the legs hanging from the tree trunk, and the man rolled down the hillside, and then hit another tree to stop.

Xiang Kun rubbed his painful waist and got up, rubbed his head, and looked around.

Still on that hill, looking at the position of the sun, it should be morning.

But Xiang Kun knew that the battle between him and the owl must be more than a few hours away.

He looked up and saw that there were many broken branches on the hillside, which looked like a mess. It was the place where he had the last fight with the giant owl.

Xiang Kun climbed up to the place where he finally lost consciousness and fell asleep. Except for one of his shoes, there was no sign of a giant owl, not even a feather or blood.

But Xiang Kun knew that the owl did not run away.

He was pretty sure the owl was dead in his arms, and he drank a lot of blood, before falling asleep.
