Chapter 42: The Animal World

Even though he had already fought in close quarters once before, but now that he saw the owl standing on the rock like an adult under the moonlight, Xiang Kun still felt that this picture was a little shocking.

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 himself.

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

And with the owl's perception ability, when it found him, it had basically discovered itself, and it just flew away, and there was no way to do it.

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

Or, for some reason, it can't fly for the time being.

Or, it's still a little unwilling, and it's still thinking about killing Xiang Kun.

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

Whatever the reason, this is his chance.

However, he didn't dare to rush up directly to do it, for fear of scaring the owl away, and it was best to let it take the initiative to attack.

Xiang Kun stopped at a distance of more than ten meters from the owl, because he noticed that the owl's body moved back slightly, and it seemed to show signs of retreating, probably observing that his recovery was better, so he was about to escape.

Xiang Kun's mind was spinning rapidly, this confrontation situation would definitely not last long, and as time went by, the more the 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 startling the owl and letting it 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.

Blood flowed out quickly, and then drop by drop fell to the ground along the elbow.

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

He showed the owl the wounds on his arms.

He had licked a mouthful of the owl's blood left on his arm before, and felt his body's strong thirst for that blood, so he guessed that the owl was most likely coveting his blood.

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

Otherwise, if it has the habit of attacking humans, it should have been exposed long ago, and it does not conform to the habits of action that it embodies.

The blood of the owl has a strong allure to Xiang Kun, which is not simply a sensory desire for deliciousness, but a cry from the body's instinct, which is higher than the craving for food in ordinary animals.

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

The giant owl, even though it had a higher IQ than other animals, didn't believe that the animal really had that much control.

The wound on the hand stopped oozing blood in just a dozen seconds, the blood became viscous and fluid, and the wound began to slowly move closer from both ends.

So Xiang Kun took a Swiss army knife and cut it again, so that the blood continued to flow out.

While showing the owl his wounds and blood, he slowly took two steps forward, and Xiang Kun noticed that the owl's posture was clearly starting to become aggressive.

It's going to be unbearable!

The owl's pair of giant wings opened suddenly, flapped and flew towards the top of Xiang Kun's head, and then suddenly snapped off, spread its two claws, and pressed down on Xiang Kun.

Xiang Kun's attention has always maintained a high level of concentration, and his sensory abilities have also reached their peak, and he can even hear the owl's heartbeat and breathing.

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

When the owl soared into the air, Xiang Kun had already taken the biting screwdriver in his hand, lowered his center of gravity, and prepared for the attack.

Xiang Kun's dynamic visual ability was also exerted to the extreme, firmly locking the owl's position in the air, without dodging or retreating, and when the owl swooped down on top of his head, he also tried his best to rush upward.

Xiang Kun's plan is very clear, whether it is with a fist or a screwdriver, hitting other parts of the owl may be able to injure or even severely damage it, but it is difficult to make it lose its ability to fly and counterattack.

So his goal is clear, which is the eyes of an owl!

And it's the eye that was blinded by him before and hasn't fully recovered yet!

Xiang Kun's reaction was completely beyond the giant owl's expectations, it had a much higher IQ than the average owl, and it could even tell that Xiang Kun was deliberately tempting it with blood and forcing it to attack, but it really couldn't bear such a temptation and didn't want to endure it.

In its judgment, Xiang Kun's first reaction in the face of its attack should be to dodge and then counterattack, just like it was by the lake before, so its first pounce actually did not do its best, it was sure that the second pounce after Xiang Kun dodged grabbed it, and then took it directly into the air and brought it to its real "home field".

However, Xiang Kun did not dodge to the side, but jumped directly towards it, so that it made a mistake, and the eyes on one side had not yet recovered, and the vision was deviated, so that Xiang Kun passed between the two claws and hugged it in the air!

While Xiang Kun was hugging the owl, he had already inserted a screwdriver into the owl's eyes, then pulled it out and inserted it again!

With a terrible chirp, Xiang Kun fell from the sky holding the huge owl and rolled down the mountain, and soon hit the trunk of the tree and bounced off, and the screwdriver flew out, but Xiang Kun still hugged the owl tightly and did not let go.

The owl did not die immediately, and fought back desperately, and the two of them fought hand-to-hand on the ground again, this time even more fiercely.

......

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

He found himself lying on the hillside on all fours, one leg hanging from a tree trunk, his body stuck in the weeds, and his whole person looked like an S.

He retracted his leg from the trunk, and the man rolled down the hill before striking another tree and coming to a halt.

Xiang Kun rubbed his sore waist ribs 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.

He looked up and saw that the hillside was a mess with broken branches, where he had fought the giant owl for the last time.

Xiang Kun climbed up to the place where he had finally lost consciousness and slept, where there was no sign of a giant owl except for one of his shoes, not a single feather or bloodstain.

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

Before he went to sleep, he was quite sure that the owl was dead in his arms, and that he had drunk a lot of blood.
