What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Xiang Kun walked directly to the riverside, avoiding surveillance cameras everywhere-now he doesn't even need to switch the infrared thermal imaging visual mode to observe, directly through the "sixth sense" to help him determine the location of the camera, and the approximate The recording area, and then through calculation, so that he can avoid the camera range like avoiding light.

He followed his previous observations on the way back and analysis of online maps, and found a remote, dim, and uncovered area on the river bank.

Xiang Kun turned over the river embankment, first carefully inspected the grass on the riverside with various sensory methods, and then began to take off his clothes and socks, only a pair of shorts remained.

Put the clothes, mobile phone, and room card in a dry place that has been observed and hide them before Xiang Kun walked slowly into the river.

Around him, there are six coins and twenty tungsten steel **** floating in the air-these are the "super-connected objects" he has always carried with him.

Stepping into the icy river water, Xiang Kun slowly leaned his body, let the river water completely cover himself above his head, and the twenty-six "super-connected objects" followed into the water.

On the surface of the river, there were only a few ripples, and then there was no movement, there were no bubbles, and it was calmer than a sinking stone.

Under the surface of the river, Xiang Kun opened his eyes and looked around, but he didn't seem to bulge and hold his breath, as if he was on the ground, he seemed very comfortable.

Yes, Xiang Kun does not need to take a breath to maintain his activity needs. His current body can actually "breathe".

Since the mutation last year, Xiang Kun has conducted experiments and training on holding his breath, and has always recorded the time of holding his breath.

Although holding his breath longer and longer, he is still very sure that even after a substantial body mutation, he still needs oxygen.

Just after walking back to the hotel with Lao Xia, Tang Baona, and Yang Zhen'er all the way back to the hotel, Xiang Kun had some "inspiration", so he filled the sink with water and exhaled his breath before dipping his head. Go in.

Then he found that after holding his breath, he could turn on an "anaerobic mode" that he had never had before. He stopped breathing, but did not have any breathing difficulties or hypoxia. It seemed that the body would not need oxygen at a time. .

However, Xiang Kun felt that it was not that the body did not need oxygen, but that he had evolved other ways of "breathing" after swallowing the "mutated parasite".

Because the hotel does not have a bathtub, it is impossible to experience the feeling of being in the water all over, so Xiang Kun simply sneaked out of the hotel and directly leaked into the river at night.

Relying on his not-light weight, Shen Jiang went quite smoothly, and in the water, after switching to that special "anaerobic mode", Xiang Kun once again experienced the kind of stopping breathing in the hotel bathroom. Feel.

Xiang Kun carefully perceives the changes in his body, swaying like an abandoned stone sculpture under the water.

Then he found that after switching the breathing mode, his body functions had declined to a certain extent, but this did not affect the various sensory abilities and the brain's thinking. Obviously, this aspect was automatically provided by the body.

Most of the decline is in the functions of strength, endurance, and explosive power. Of course, he only has a rough estimate of the specific degree of decline, and he has no accurate judgment without actual tests or experiments.

However, there is no obvious change in the sensation when the muscles are exerting force, as well as other operating modes of the body, and when breathing normally.

Just like an electrical appliance, the screen can still be brightened, but the brightness of the screen is reduced, and the internal operation does not seem to have essentially changed.

So Xiang Kun guessed that what he switched after holding his breath underwater was not the "anaerobic mode" but the "oxygen saving mode."

So, where does oxygen come from?

Xiang Kun knew that fish breathed underwater, relying on gills.

A fish can rely on small gills to capture dissolved oxygen in the water, and also to discharge carbon dioxide through the small gills. Even if he has the function of fish gills, he has to open his mouth to absorb water and drain water?

But the fact is that he doesn't need to open his mouth or filter water while underwater.

Xiang Kun immediately thought of his observation after he caught the "mutated parasite".

Most of the endoparasites in this world rely on glycolysis for energy and do not need oxygen.

But obviously, that "mutated parasite" is not among them. It can still survive after being separated from its host. It has certain athletic ability, and its mobility and adaptability in water far exceed that of land, so it needs to breathe. of.

However, in Xiang Kun's observation, that guy did not have a gill-like structure.

So how does it breathe?

Xiang Kun continued to perceive carefully, and then noticed a slight cold feeling on the skin. He actually noticed this feeling from the beginning, but at first he thought it was just because of the cold water.

At this time, carefully recalling the nuances before and after being completely submerged in the water and turning on the "oxygen saving mode", I immediately realized that this slight cooling sensation all over the skin may be the skin "breathing".

Xiang Kun carefully observed his skin in the water. Through the continuous switching of low-light night vision and infrared thermal imaging visual modes, he can still play his visual advantage even in the water.

Many times, some cosmetics advertisements will promote "human skin can breathe" and "pores can breathe", but in fact, pores do not have the function of "breathing".

However, it seems that on Xiang Kun, those slogans have come true. He seems to be breathing through the pores to a very low level, taking in oxygen in the water, and expelling the metabolized carbon dioxide through the pores, just in the water, this process After being broken into pieces, all kinds of tiny reactions are not only difficult to observe visually, but even hard to perceive clearly by himself.

After determining his breathing mode in the "oxygen saving mode", Xiang Kun began to expand his attention outwards and let go of his perception.

Following the "inspiration" that accompanied Lao Xia and the three on the riverside, Xiang Kun once again used the "parasitic all things" mode to perceive the surrounding river water.

Then he discovered that while "breathing" through his skin, he also possessed a new perception ability in the water-his skin seemed to have a more sensitive perception of the fluctuations of water, and he could judge through this perception Information about the trajectory of living creatures in the water more than ten meters or even twenty meters away, and the position of dead objects in the water.

Xiang Kun carefully perceives this information, and believes that it does not only come from the evolution of abilities brought about by "mutated parasites", but most of it is due to the combination of his own already super sensory ability, information processing and judgment ability. Only then will there be this kind of comprehensive information scanning capability in the water.

Then Xiang Kun stopped "following the flow", but started to swim actively in the water.

He had only learned the breaststroke before and he could swim very generally, but now when he moves in the water, he swims according to an "instinct".

His swimming posture is like a fish, similar to the butterfly-leg snorkeling posture, but compared to the human butterfly-leg snorkeling, he is much more relaxed and relaxed. His hands are stretched out from under his chest from time to time to control the direction. Let yourself be more labor-saving with the help of water currents and water potential.

After swimming in the water for a while, Xiang Kun found that the connection between himself and the river seemed to have become closer again, as if a pair of shoes had just been put on, and after wearing them for a while and exercising for a while, they attached more and more. Together.

So Xiang Kun's movements in the water are getting smaller and smaller, but his swimming speed and flexibility are getting higher and higher.

After swimming in the water for more than an hour, Xiang Kun stayed still again, and then controlled the twenty-six "superlinks" that followed him down the river to gather around him.

Immediately after he started swimming, he half let go of control over these "super-connected objects", but after swimming a certain distance, he gathered them again, so as not to look back and be taken too far by the river and out of his control. It is too troublesome to get them back one by one.

But at this time, Xiang Kun "sent" the 26 "super-connected objects" farther away from the bottom of the water, the farthest one was even hundreds of meters away.

At this distance, he could sense it, but he certainly couldn't control it. He had to enter the "super-sensing state" and accurately locate it before he could perform the corresponding operation.

But now in the river water, Xiang Kun passes through the "super-connected object" magnetic field from near to far, but finds that the river water is like an adhesive, and the single magnetic field of 26 "super-connected objects" is in Xiang Kun's Perceived to form a whole.

And with this "super-connected matter" matrix, Xiang Kun's perception in the water has also been expanded to a large extent, reaching more than a hundred meters away, and the details of perception should be richer.

He can perceive the small boats moored by the river on the opposite side, the fish swimming around, the snails of different sizes and other plankton hidden on the bottom of the river.

Slowly, Xiang Kun discovered that not only could he perceive, but he could also have a certain "manipulation" ability.

Through the influence of the "super-connected things" matrix, he brought together twenty-six "super-connected things" again, and then tried to intervene in the flow of the river to find the power points that can be borrowed to influence the current.

In constant attempts, he finally formed a tiny vortex in the water.

However, what Xiang Kun in the water didn't know was that while he was conducting these experiments, some abnormalities appeared on the river surface.

The wind seemed to change its direction slightly, and it also became a little bigger. On the surface of the river near the whirlpool, there were layers of very light fog, but because it was rare, it was blown away by the wind in the blink of an eye.

Of course, no one can see this scene on the river late at night.

Xiang Kun in the water is still obsessed with the research and experiment of controlling the river water.

At this time, nearly three hours had passed since he sank into the river.

Just when Xiang Kun had touched the doorway through research and experimentation, and found the use of the "super-connected matter" matrix to better control the water flow by the power of the water flow, he was more than 60 meters away from the riverside where he was. The small object fell into the river, accompanied by a series of women shouting on the shore.

The twenty-six "superlinks" that were originally gathered around Xiang Kun instantly followed his will and shot out in the water like a torpedo, rushing away like the place where the water fell.

Xiang Kun soon discovered that the man who fell from the embankment to the river was an adult male, while the one who yelled at the bank was a woman.

Stumbled into the water?

Xiang Kun quickly had judgment in his mind, and people still had to be saved if he could. This distance, at his speed, should be too late to swim past and rescue people.

But he has been sinking in the water, and there is no process of jumping off the side. It is now in the middle of the night, there is no other people beside, and there is no boat on the river. He just popped out of the water and rescued people so suddenly. Abrupt.

Can't save people, just shout "the light of the right way" and turn your head and jump back into the water to sink and disappear without a trace, right? That is going to scare people.

And looking back, maybe there will be a big news tomorrow, attracting a lot of attention and investigation that he didn't want.

So Xiang Kun's decision was to use the "water control" method he had just touched the doorway to save people while swimming over there.

...

a few minutes ago.

Waterfront.

A car stopped on the side of the road.

The back seat door opened, and a young girl with short chestnut hair got out of the car angrily and headed to the river.

On the other side of the back seat, a handsome young man hurriedly opened the door and followed him quickly, calling the girl's name as he ran, and pulling her hand.

Obviously, this is a young couple quarreling.

The two pilots and co-drivers in the car looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, put down the window, and started chatting, waiting for the young couple to come back after arguing. As friends, they have seen this scene countless times.

But the development of things was a little different from the past. The young man seemed to have drunk a lot of alcohol and was a little agitated. After arguing with the girl a few words, he yelled, "How the **** do you believe me? Jump from here, do you believe it?"

The girl was already angry, and she said, "You **** have a seed..."

She saw that the wide river was suddenly excited. She wanted to brake and didn't finish her words, but it was too late. The young man over the alcohol shouted "Jump and jump!" After that, she made a run-up and jumped into the river. .

"Ah? Ah! Fuck! Help!!!!-Come and help!!!!" The girl yelled again and again, and even wanted to jump down, but she and her boyfriend were all land ducks. Jumping by the river, yelling to let the companions in the car come to rescue people.

When the two companions in the car realized that something was wrong and hurriedly got out of the car and rushed over, they saw a scene that surprised them with the girl who was already crying with snot and tears.

The young man who fell into the water whirled on the surface of the river and moved quickly to a beach not far from the shore. From his posture in the water, it was certain that he was not swimming by himself.

After seeing the young man being brought to the bank downstream by the river, the three rushed over.

When they arrived, the young man was lying in a patch of water and yelling, crying while screaming, while crawling up the embankment.

The three of them took a lot of effort to pull their companions up.

"Fuck, you guy who almost drowned in a 1.5-meter swimming pool, dare you jump into the river? You are so **** silly..." The man who was driving the car cursed with fear.

The young man’s girlfriend also kept crying, crying and asking her boyfriend if she had hurt him and whether to hit 122.

"Fart 122, it's 120!" The man who drove reluctantly scolded the girl, and said to his companion who was in the co-driver before: "You call his brother, let his brother know that, we will send him to the hospital... …Hey? What are you doing in a daze?"

He looked up and saw his companion standing by and staring at the river in a daze, he couldn't help but wonder.

But when he followed his companion's line of sight and looked towards the surface of the river, he was also stunned.

Just now under the moonlight, the surface of the river on the opposite bank was clearly visible. At this time, a whole piece of mist was engulfed, and this mist turned out to be only between where they were and where the young man jumped into the river.

After dozens of seconds, or even a few minutes later, the fog quickly dissipated, and a gust of cold wind blew through, causing several people on the riverside to chill~www.novelmtl.com~ At this moment, the surrounding street lights suddenly turned on. , And then they suddenly realized that just now it seemed that when they ran over this road, the street lights had dimmed a lot, but they were anxious to save people at that time and didn't care too much.

Now it’s not brighter, just restored?

At this moment, the man who was lying on the ground, wet, crying and humming for a long time, suddenly raised his head and shouted to his girlfriend and two companions: "Run...Run! In the water!" There is something... there is something in this water!!!"

The three people who were a little hairy in their hearts were all startled by his voice.

When the three men stumbled and left with the help of the jumping river man, half of their bare heads slowly rose up on the surface of the river near the shore.

Xiang Kun looked at the four people who panicked and ran to the roadside car. His eyes were a little helpless. He wanted to try his best to make it seem like an "accident." The man who fell into the water was washed up on the beach with "good luck". It's scary.
