What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 50 Three Experiments (Part 1)

It was already 8:30 in the evening when Xiang Kun returned to the city where he lived. As soon as he opened the door of the house, there was a pungent smell.

He wasn't surprised, there were three rabbits in the cage in the kitchen, and no one shoveled their excrement for almost five days, so the smell was certain.

Xiang Kun first opened the kitchen door and window to ventilate, and then checked the meat rabbit in the cage.

Before he left, he stuffed all the vegetables in the refrigerator into and around the cage, and the sink was filled with water.

As for how many days those vegetable leaves can be eaten, he will come back in a few days. Of course, he doesn't have the time and energy to think about it. What he raises is food, not pets.

At first, he thought that these meat rabbits should be GG, but he didn't expect to check and found that although the three rabbits looked listless and dying, they were still tenaciously alive.

Xiang Kun hesitated for a while whether to kill all three rabbits and drink their blood, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided to follow his usual schedule and rhythm.

Moreover, he plans to conduct some experiments, and some things that need to be prepared in advance have not been prepared yet.

So Xiang Kun helped the rabbits clean up the cage, then rummaged through the refrigerator, found an apple that was left by the previous tenant for an unknown how long, cut it into thin slices and put it in the trough for them to eat.

At this point in time, he would naturally not go out to buy food for the rabbit.

After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Xiang Kun sat in front of the computer, opened the file, and wrote down some summaries of his trip to the mountains.

In addition, I also listened to Associate Professor Li's daughter Xiaoping Ping on the way, and how to understand the meaning of bird calls, which was also sorted out and recorded according to his understanding.

He is quite interested in this ability, and also feels that it should be easy to learn with his unique sense of hearing.

But he is actually more interested in Associate Professor Li himself.

Although Associate Professor Li didn't take topics like Xiang Kun's mutations and vampires very seriously, he didn't even think about discussing them in depth. However, judging from Associate Professor Li's professional background and working environment, he is indeed the person Xiang Kun has access to at present, the most likely and capable person to help him study the reasons for his body mutation in private.

Of course, it's just "possible", Xiang Kun will naturally not disclose any information to Associate Professor Li now, and will not even contact him in a short time.

He didn't care if he would guarantee that people would be willing to help him, or whether he would keep it secret in advance. After he knew Xiang Kun's secret, he backhandedly sent him a paper as his major discovery and research result.

Either there is a deep emotional foundation, or there is a consistent interest drive, otherwise Xiang Kun will never put his own safety on the moral bottom line of others.

Generally speaking, although this trip in the mountains took almost an entire blood-drinking cycle, the harvest was still good.

What's more, the four and a half days in the mountains were another form of comprehensive training, which was of great help to him in mastering and familiarizing himself with the abilities obtained from the blood of the giant owl.

But there are also regrets. The biggest purpose of this trip to the mountains is to find the reason and clues for the mutation of the giant owl, followed by looking for other mutant creatures, and finally the reason why the owl left its habitat and entered the urban area.

He thought it was normal that there were no results for the first two points, but Xiang Kun felt a little uneasy when he found no definite clues for the third point.

For this owl, there is no need for seasonal migration, and generally it will not easily leave its familiar territory and go to a place two to three hundred kilometers away where humans live.

You know, it is impossible to have any natural enemies in that mountain forest. Not to mention that there are no beasts like tigers and lions there, even if there are, they need to be afraid of the owl.

What's more, judging from the behavior habits of that owl and the memory picture obtained by Xiang Kun,

It is very aware of the dangers of humans. When it comes to places where humans live together, it will do its best to avoid humans, avoid being discovered, and even deliberately dispose of the corpses of prey that it kills and drinks blood.

In this case, it is very abnormal for it to appear around a big city.

If it appeared near Xiang Kun's community and was aimed at Xiang Kun, then it had to fly around the garbage dump first before it could find the rabbit corpse that Xiang Kun had discarded and smell Xiang Kun's scent.

He didn't think that the owl could sense him "tactfully" from hundreds of miles away.

There must be some irresistible reason that forced it to leave its habitat and approach human settlements cautiously.

Not affected by the environment, not threatened by natural enemies, could it be that there is not enough food?

It seemed impossible. Although the prey that the owl mutated became bigger and bigger and more and more, but the forest area was very large and wide, so it would not be able to find a blood supply in a short period of time.

or……

The blood of ordinary animals can no longer meet its needs, so it must absorb the blood of other mutated creatures?

This was just Xiang Kun's guess, and there was no evidence to prove it, neither the traces in the mountains nor the memory pictures of the owls could prove it.

But he still felt that this possibility was the greatest and most reasonable, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why the owl left its habitat and ventured closer to human settlements.

When he smelled that giant owl for the first time, it could be said that his body gave him the cue to pay attention to the smell.

In other words, mutated creatures have the instinct to hunt and kill each other and draw blood from each other?

This also made Xiang Kun a little vigilant. Will there be a day in the future when rabbit blood cannot meet his survival needs, and he must ingest the blood of other mutant creatures?

Early the next morning, Xiang Kun went out. He needed to purchase some things. In addition to meeting the hunger that might arrive on schedule today, there were three more experiments to do.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Xiang Kun had already bought what he needed, returned home, and started the first experiment.

He used a 1ML disposable needle to draw a small amount of his own blood, and then slapped them on two meat rabbits respectively—he found a way to inject rabbits intravenously on the Internet.

Then he changed another needle, mixed a little bit of purified water with his own saliva, and injected it into the other two rabbits.

Today he bought back five meat rabbits. Together with the previous three, the family already has eight. However, the four dogs used for the experiment were all newly bought, and they seemed to be in good spirits.

Xiang Kun divided the four rabbits injected with blood and saliva into two newly purchased cages, and then began to time and observe.

He wanted to see if his blood or saliva could infect other creatures and turn them into mutated creatures?

After all, in film and television and literary works, people who survived being bitten by vampires would be transformed into vampires.

Naturally, he wouldn't bite a rabbit, but if he could be assimilated by being bitten, he could inject saliva and blood directly into the blood vessels, and it would be the same.

However, after half an hour of observation, the four rabbits didn't seem to have changed except for looking a little timid and listless.

Of course, he didn't just plan to observe for half an hour. He pointed the cheap cameras he bought at the two cages, connected them to the computer, and started recording videos. He was going to observe and record for a long time.

Then Xiang Kun ignored the rabbits and started preparing for the second experiment.

On the table in front of him he placed four glassware, with four corresponding stoppers.
