my stealth fighter

Chapter 482 Salt

In fact, there is no need to wake up Lafei, maybe the cold mask irritated her skin, and she opened her eyes after a while.

If a normal person wears a metal mask on his face during sleep or coma, the first reaction after waking up must be to scratch the mask anxiously and terrifiedly with both hands, trying to get the strange thing off his face, but he lost his mind. Raphael didn't do that. She seemed to have not noticed the mask at all. After waking up, she continued to stare at Arabella through the glass, but immediately realized that there was someone behind her, and immediately turned around.

Even though she had a mask on her face and was unarmed, Jiang Chanji still didn't dare to be careless, because her nails were long and sharp, almost like eagle claws, they could cut people open if they caught them on the stomach.

Her metabolism is too fast, there is no point in clipping her nails, even if she pulls them out, they will grow back quickly.The inside of the glass was covered with white scratches from her fingernails.

"Ho-ho-"

Since Raphael became a vampire, she has never eaten human beings, nor has she tasted human flesh. This is a blessing in misfortune, otherwise her desire for flesh and blood would be even more difficult to contain.

"Raphael! Calm down!"

Arabella patted the glass anxiously. She had already used her ability. Even if the target was the giant bear in the forest, she would quickly calm down. It also had an effect on Raphael, but it wasn't the kind of immediate effect.

Although the bulldog that has been trained for a long time can barely restrain its snapping action towards strangers under the scolding of its master, barking is unavoidable. At this time, Raphael is wandering back and forth in the transition zone between attacking and not attacking.

Catherine frowned from the outside, if it was only to this extent, she would not agree to release Rafael.

Fortunately, after a while, after the short-term stimulation brought by close contact with living people, Raphael began to calm down slowly, and the frequency of breathing decreased significantly.

"That's right, Raphael, sit down!"

If Jiang Chanji wasn't in a dangerous situation, he would be a little funny. Did Arabella really train Rafa like a dog?

But if it is training dogs, there should be food as a reward, right?
Rafa looked back at Arabella, squatted on the floor reluctantly, and stared at Jiang Chanji again.

"Raphael, don't you know me?" He tried to communicate with her.

She didn't have an obvious reaction, so it's no wonder that they are not even friends, at most they are companions who have been together for a short time.

"Alright, Ji Chan, let's come out now!" Xiaosui said worriedly.

"Don't be busy, we're all here anyway, you have to try everything you need to try, otherwise you'll be in for nothing." He looked at Arabella through the glass, "When does she eat?"

"She hasn't eaten for more than a day, this is to weaken her metabolic ability, so as not to cause anesthesia, so she is very hungry now..." Arabella said worriedly: "Although I have confidence in Rafa, but now In this case, Chan Ji, you should come out first, and it won't be too late to try again after she eats a little."

Jiang Chanji shook his head, "Since it's a test, of course we have to test the limit, so as to ensure her safety with us in the future. If she goes crazy if she doesn't eat for a day, it only means that she has to continue to be locked up here."

"I think you can try it." Zixuan interjected, "This mask will release a compound that can neutralize the amine odor for a long time. As long as you don't leak air when you put the mask on her, she shouldn't be able to smell it. Without the smell of blood, she will be less stimulated when eating."

With Jiang Chanji's insistence and Zixuan's assurance, Arabella had no choice but to agree.

This glass container for imprisoning extraordinary animals must be designed with a feeding trough. Zixuan took out a blood bag from the freezer next to it, put it into the feeding trough, and then pressed the button to send the blood bag into the container.

"Isn't this human blood?" Qian Yang was a little dizzy and asked fearfully.

"No, it's pig blood." Zixuan explained, "Pig blood is closer to human blood. You should have heard that some of the internal organs of pigs can theoretically be transplanted to humans, right?"

"Oh, that's good." Qianyang doesn't care about the pig's internal organs, as long as it's not human blood, her psychological pressure will be relieved.

Arabella said: "At the beginning, the teachers fed her human blood bought from the blood bank, because Rafael was very repulsive to blood other than human blood, and he couldn't mix human blood with animal blood, because When different bloods are mixed, coagulation or hemolysis reactions will occur, so we can only feed most of them human blood and a small part of animal blood, and it was Zixuan who helped us solve this problem."

"Ah? I haven't heard you mention it!" Xiaosui asked Zixuan curiously, "Did you invent some kind of artificial blood?"

As soon as the words came out, Xiaosui sensed something was wrong, Zixuan had just said that it was pig blood, not artificial blood.

"It's not that complicated at all~" Zixuan said, "I didn't do anything at first, but when I was wandering around the various floors of the laboratory, I saw some supernatural animals brought back by students, some were alive and some were dead. Some animals can keep it alive, but some have to be killed after the research is over—that’s what Chan Ji you called before.”

"What is a 'vicious beast'? Those who have eaten humans are vicious beasts. Not only supernatural animals, but ordinary beasts must also be killed if they have eaten humans. Otherwise, they will remember the taste of human flesh and blood, and then continue to eat people whenever they have the opportunity "Zixuan continued to explain, "I had an idea, and thought why is this? Why is human flesh and blood so attractive?"

"After I checked the information, I found that there are three main reasons. Everyone can guess the first two. It is nothing more than the fact that human skin does not have many and thick hairs or feathers, and human flesh and blood are softer. The third reason is that there are very few. Someone knows, that's because... Humans are the only species that can obtain salt steadily. Human flesh and blood are rich in salt, which is higher than most creatures, so I tried to add it to pig blood A certain proportion of table salt and other inorganic salts are added."

Xiaosui suddenly realized, "Then Raphael..."

Zixuan nodded, "At least she is no longer so resistant to pig blood. She sweats a lot, has a very fast metabolism, and needs more salt, so she craves human flesh and blood."

Everyone else felt enlightened. It is easy for everyone to understand this matter, but if you insist on thinking about it, few people can think of it.

Especially Catherine and No. 33, they thought of the black goat they met in the forest after the plane crash, which was eating one of the thighs of the victims of the air crash.

Animals such as goats and deer are particularly fond of licking rock salt. Their sense of smell is also very sensitive to salt, and some experienced hunters will use this to make traps to kill them.

Even cats, who are not supposed to eat too much salt, like to lick salt if they get the chance, and salt is fatal to most animals.

Purchasing human blood to feed Raphael will not cause economic problems for everyone, but the psychological burden caused by it is difficult to eliminate. After all, blood donors donate blood to help the injured, not to serve as food for inhuman monsters , Now that Zixuan has solved this problem, it is tantamount to solving everyone's heart problems.

"Have you ever tried boiling pig's blood into pig's blood jelly for her to try? The stir-fry is delicious!" Jiang Chan was in a dangerous position, but he still heard their conversation. The taste will never be forgotten.

"..."

Everyone else outside was speechless.

"I really didn't think about this, but your brain is so flexible that you can think of this?" Zixuan sarcastically said, "Is there still blood after cooking blood?"

"Uh..." Jiang Chanji was speechless.

"However, this reminds me that maybe without changing the taste, we can add a little coagulation-promoting substance to pig blood and make pig blood into a jelly shape, which is convenient for storage and carrying, and does not need to be kept in the refrigerator all the time. ..." Zixuan thought.

"If it doesn't work, I can take it with me." Aurora volunteered. Fortunately, Layla was not here, otherwise Layla would definitely be given the nickname "Mobile Refrigerator".

Jiang Chanji walked around to Rafael's side, squatted down and picked up the blood bag from the feeding trough. In order to reduce Rafael's stress on the blood red, the blood bag was white, opaque, and came with a hose.

When feeding Rafa before, because she didn't know that the blood bag was food, so she could only feed her with blood in a basin or a plate, so she didn't react when she saw the blood bag.

Jiang Chanji slowly approached her with a blood bag.

It has been a long time since she has been in contact with humans without a thick glass. Even with Arabella's order, when he gets too close to her, she still jumps up, bends her knees, and stretches her hands forward, as if Animal-like pouncing.

He stopped still, but feeding her was clearly impossible in these conditions.

At this time, there was a small commotion outside the glass.

Everyone was watching the situation inside the container with trepidation, when a strange figure suddenly appeared and firmly drew their attention away, and they were all taken aback.

Qianyang almost exclaimed "Ghost!", but fortunately Xiaosui covered her mouth.

"No. 2...22?"

They stared dumbfounded at the man coming from the other room.

This person is wearing clothes made of animal skin and white cloth, but if you knead it with your hands, you will find that it is not real animal skin, but some kind of cloth with a texture very similar to animal skin.

She...or he, looks very neutral. It can be said to be male or female, or it can be said to be female. In short, her gender cannot be distinguished from her face alone.

In addition, she has a vivid third eye between her eyebrows, full ears, serious smile, and thick hair coiled high in a pagoda shape with a crescent-shaped ornament in the hair.

Her exposed skin is all indigo, which is by no means the skin color of a normal person.

Everyone realized that this was the number 22 after changing clothes, but if they hadn't known it in advance, no one would have recognized it.

"Raphael! Do you recognize me?"

On the 22nd, he spoke in Sanskrit that everyone could not understand, with a deep and majestic voice.

Rafa reacted to the Sanskrit, turned around subconsciously, and the moment he saw No. 22, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
Her knees began to tremble, and finally she knelt down with a plop, no longer the sound of "ho ho", but a series of weird babbling sounds in an extremely difficult and hoarse tone, and finally managed to fight after ten seconds or so. What she wanted to say came out: "Lord Shiva!"

Not only that, but everyone could clearly see two lines of inconspicuous tears flowing from her eyes.

Everyone turned pale with shock. It seems that Raphael's degree of devotion to God is higher than they expected. You must know that Raphael can still pop out one or two words in the early stage of vampireization, such as "she hates to the bone" Kali", she was unable to say anything later, and now she was stimulated to speak again, fully proving that this method is effective.

No. 22 paced majestically, walked slowly to the side of the preparation room, winked at Zixuan, told Zixuan to open the door, and she wanted to go in, because she only knew one sentence in Sanskrit, and even if she could speak Even more Sanskrit, Rafael may not be able to understand, or physical communication is more effective.

On the 22nd, he also worked hard, relying on the fact that he was in Hongye College, it would be fine if he was injured, as long as he didn't die, he could ask Lu Weijing to help him treat him.

She entered the preparation room, entered the container from the preparation room, and walked slowly towards Raphael.

Different from resisting Jiang Chanji's approach just now, now Rafa has no intention of resisting, and is watching No. 22 with tears in his eyes.

Number 22 was worried, but his face was as calm as a clay Buddha statue in a temple. He stretched out a hand and slowly placed it on top of Rafael's head.

Rafa remained motionless, but his gray-white eyes exploded with splendor, as if he had received a great honor.

No. 22's outfit took a lot of work, and she couldn't keep acting like this in the future, so she had to let Rafa's obedience to her be transferred to other people.

So, she raised her hand, took Jiang Chanji's hand, placed his hand on top of Rafael's head, and then covered it with her own.

She didn't know if Rafi could understand the meaning of this, so she could only try. In fact, it would be more appropriate for Rafa to empathize with Arabella, but it was obviously impossible for Catherine to allow her younger sister to contact Rafa rashly.

Rafa remained motionless, and after a while, No. 22 moved his palm away, signaling Jiang Chanji to feed Rafa.

He inserted the flexible tube on the blood bag into the special port on the metal mask, and the tube protruded into Raphael's mouth. Anyway, she was panting with her mouth open all the time, and then squeezed the pig's blood in the blood bag into her mouth.

As soon as he tasted the blood, Rafa was instinctively stimulated again, and his body was ready to move. At this time, No. 22 put his palm on top of her head again, increased his strength, and pressed her head to stop her from moving.

After a short period of slight struggle, Rafa suppressed the bloodthirsty impulse with his devotion to God, drank the blood in the blood bag in a relatively calm manner, and still maintained his kneeling posture.

Jiang Chanji tried to give her a second bag of blood to drink. This time, No. 22 stayed on the sidelines. Rafa was still a little impulsive, but No. 22 no longer needed to intervene.

Everyone outside the glass finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the biggest difficulty was overcome.
