Chapter 440: Could it be the Chosen Bird?

The huge "bird of prey" was shrinking in the dense forest at the col at this time, in a state of stealth, motionless, as if resting.

Unbeknownst to it, several small drones hiding between the canopies of trees a few hundred meters away had locked on to its location, even though they had not made any moves.

Mr. Liang, who was further away, was naturally very clear about its location.

The reason why I don't attack now is not because I want to make observations, but because I am waiting for equipment.

At this moment, his driver, Lao Xie, was driving in the direction where he was. Of course, it is certain that they will not be able to get to their location at this time, and there will be drones to pick up the equipment at that time.

During this time, Mr. Liang had roughly figured out the various specificities of the "giant bird of prey", and he no longer wanted to play the "game" of I chase you with this big bird, so he decided to capture this big bird alive here.

This mountainous area is far away from the main scenic spot of Wushu Mountain, and there are no villages within a certain range of the surrounding area, except for the occasional patrol of the forestry department, basically no one will set foot here, and it is a good place to do it.

While waiting for the equipment, Mr. Liang was still thinking about a question-

How did this "giant bird of prey" become like this?

Even if a "blood-eating organism" wants to have a leap in mutation or evolution in appearance or physical characteristics, it basically has to meet two conditions.

One is to predatory blood drinking other "blood-eating creatures", and the other is to have a bad enough external environment to persecute them.

Like him, in the absence of external persecution, he forced himself to take the initiative to choose the direction of mutation and evolution, which should be unique.

Mr. Liang thought of the video and photos of a thunderstorm on Zihuan Mountain in Thornton City, and a suspected "giant bird of prey" flew away with flames.

Maybe that terrifying lightning storm was the external environment that caused the "giant raptor" to change so much in a short period of time?

This also explains why it can withstand the electric shock and transfer the heat generated by the electric shock process to the outside of the body.

But the question is, why did it get caught in a lightning storm in that place?

With the maneuvering ability of the "Giant Raptor", it is completely able to leave before the weather gets worse, and the scope of the lightning storm is not large, even when it senses that the lightning storm is about to erupt, it can fly away in time, and it is unlikely that it will be trapped in the lightning storm and be split into flames.

Don't...... Did it deliberately go to the hack?

This "giant bird of prey" also has the consciousness to take advantage of the harsh environment to adjust its evolutionary direction?

Judging from the previous period of chase, Mr. Liang is not willing to believe this. But if you look at the experience that this "giant bird of prey" can have many predatory blood drinks, it seems very reasonable that it is such a "chosen bird".

It seems that it is some kind of objective reason that is influencing or guiding its evolutionary path.

Mr. Liang's mind moved, and he tapped a tiny bump next to his ear, revealing a projection screen before his eyes, on which several documents were opened—projections that only he could see, made possible by the technology he had inherited in the cornea.

These documents were all briefings sent from various places during the period when he was chasing the "giant bird of prey", and his attention was instantly locked on the investigation briefing sent by Zhou Rui from Chongyun Mountain.

With a slight flick of his head, the other documents in his sight disappeared instantly, and only Zhou Rui's briefing spread over the entire visual projection area.

After a quick look at the briefing, including relevant news information, photos taken from the field investigation, photos of the winged ants found, close-ups, simple research reports, and the video of the lightning storm that had been circulated on the Internet earlier and shot from a distance, Mr. Liang's eyeballs without eyelids rolled slightly, thoughtfully.

Of course, he knew that the "invisible insect" had been predatory and blood-drinking by the "giant bird of prey", and it no longer existed in this world, and those special "flying ants" in the Chongyun Mountains must have nothing to do with the "invisible insect".

When the lightning storm happened, the "Giant Bird of Prey" was also in the process of being pursued by him, so it must have nothing to do with this big bird.

But judging from Zhou Rui's discovery, those "flying ants" may indeed be related to other "blood-eating creatures".

And judging from the videos taken by netizens, the type of lightning storm that occurred in Chongyun Mountain is indeed similar to the lightning storm in Zihuan Mountain.

Linked to the great stride evolution of this "giant bird of prey" now, maybe Zhou Rui was really blinded, and this lightning storm may really have some intrinsic connection with the mutation of the "blood-eating creature".

Mr. Liang didn't think too much about it, and directly asked Zhou Rui to continue the investigation according to his train of thought, and sent a message to Fang Pingfang in Star City, asking her to take Ye Chong and Li Shiyu back to Haixi Province to participate in the investigation, and instructed Ye Chong to use all the resources of "Shenxing Technology" in Jianzhou City to provide multi-faceted support.

If all goes well on his side, he might stop by and have a look.

Anyway, it's also very close to Chongyun Mountain.

It wasn't until nightfall that the "giant bird of prey" changed places and landed on a hill two kilometers away in a straight line, as if it felt that it had completely escaped Mr. Liang's pursuit.

Because it was still firmly locked on its position, Mr. Liang did not move its position, and the dozens of drones also did not move, only a few micro drones circled the opposite side of the "giant raptor" to monitor it from a distance.

After this period of pursuit, Mr. Liang is already very aware of the sensory alertness range of this big bird, knowing how far away, what type of drone to peep at, and how much movement it will cause, and it will not be detected.

The "giant raptor" is not only visually invisible, but also the temperature of its body sometimes fluctuates and changes with the environment, and if it is an ordinary person, even if the target is locked on through the camera on the drone for a short time, even if it is assisted by an infrared thermal imaging system, it is easy to lose the target.

Even Mr. Liang, who is very experienced in dealing with "blood-eating creatures" and has special abilities, was lost several times at the beginning.

But now, he has completely mastered the characteristics of this big bird, unless the "giant raptor" can burst out at a very fast speed in a short period of time to directly throw off all the drones, or destroy all the drones, otherwise under his manual lock, the "giant raptor" is in an area, as long as it is discovered at the beginning, it cannot hide.

In the second half of the night, several medium-sized drones dragged a box over a mountain and slowly landed next to Mr. Liang.

This case is actually not very large, almost the size of a full-tower case.

Mr. Liang didn't need lighting, so he pressed his hand on a screen on the top surface and opened the box.

Inside the box are a number of accessories that have no apparent purpose, all kinds and sizes.

Mr. Liang casually picked up a metal plate the size of a mobile phone and put it on the back of his left hand, and the metal plate seemed to be suddenly activated, merging with his left hand.

Then there were one piece after another parts, all of which were "installed" on Mr. Liang's body and turned into corresponding "equipment".

After a while, his whole body was full of all kinds of "equipment", and these "equipment" all seemed to grow on his body, completely integrated with him, and did not need any pendants, straps or buckles to fix, as if they were his organs, a part of him.

These "devices" are one of the most direct research results of "Shenxing Technology" in recent years, but all the "equipment" can only be used by him, and they are made exclusively for him, and only he can give full play to the strongest ability of these "devices".

After loading his gear, Mr. Liang stretched his limbs and started running on the mountainside.

The whole running process was only five or six steps, and at the last step, his thighs were bent, and the two boosters attached to his thighs immediately began to run, adding to his already powerful pedaling force again.

Mr. Liang's figure shot into the air like a sharp arrow, and after flying four or five meters, the bulging "equipment" on his back snapped out a pair of long, thin wings.

The wings seemed to be folded, but when they were unfolded, they seemed to become extremely strong, allowing Mr. Liang to take off into the air.

Not only does he have a pair of wings, but Mr. Liang also has two small jet engines on his waist side that propel him forward quickly.

Mr. Liang controls the equipment on his body as if he were his own organs, and does not need to operate it through his hands or other limbs. Of course, in terms of proficiency, there is still no way to completely do it. In terms of perception, it is not as good as the original organ.

Mr. Liang flew directly towards the location of the "giant bird of prey", the speed was extremely fast, and in the process of flying, his body directly entered an invisible state, and even the "equipment" attached to his body disappeared, and only two trails could be faintly seen.

......

Xiang Kun took "Zero Zero One" and "Zero Zero Two", as well as more than 1,000 "flying worker ants" and "small worker ants" into the northern mountainous area of Wushu Mountain.

The reproduction speed of ants is already extremely fast, and under the catalysis of Xiang Kun's means, the reproduction speed is even more amazing, and the speed at which eggs hatch into ants is also accelerated many times.

In a very short period of time, Xiang Kun had the means to establish a huge ant colony in the mountains.

Of course, under this kind of catalysis and transformation, those worker ants also have some defects, but for what Xiang Kun wants to do, these few defects can be ignored.

According to Xiang Kun's plan, he plans to spend two or three days to let "Zero Zero" give birth to some breeding ants, and then distribute five to eight second-level queens to establish a new community.

Xiang Kun then "adjusted" the behavior patterns and ability derivation directions of these second-level ant communities by influencing the external environment.

When encountering some details that he can't specifically control, he can let "Zero Zero One", an absolute overlord-level large worker ant, intervene within the community.

In Xiang Kun's view, under the dual dominance of environmental selection and internal genetic mutation selection, coupled with several communities competing with each other, he should be able to "tune" a "pseudo-mutant ant" community that suits his heart and can be used to camouflage "mutant creatures" in a short period of time.

But what he didn't expect was that on the first night he entered the mountain, he found other "mutant creatures".
