Chapter 4 Experiment
Xiao Xiao was absent-minded for a while, staring blankly at his own face in the window. He seemed to be thinking a lot, but also seemed to be just in a daze.

Superman and the like are really too unrealistic, right?

Maybe it was just a small wound, so it’s normal for it to heal quickly, right?

Forget it, whether it is accidental or inevitable, we can just do a simple experiment.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao suddenly became anxious. He clenched the black notebook tightly with his fingers and strode towards the elevator.

Xiao Xiao heaved a sigh of relief only when he could no longer see the shadow of the library. He touched the notebook in his hand and calmed down.

Under the overly bright sunlight, Xiao Xiao belatedly noticed some changes in the notebook.

The black cover has a peculiar texture, like gold, jade, and ancient sandalwood, with a touch of heavy and old charm. There are faint intricate and strange patterns on it, with a slight silver glow, and a hint of blood seeping out of the silver, which seems to foreshadow something ominous.

As for the changes in the notebook, Xiao Xiao, who had been "trained" a lot during this period, was surprised for a moment but then accepted it calmly. His own body might have changed, so what was there to be surprised about the changes in a mere notebook?

When he returned to the dormitory, everyone was not there, so he just went to the bathroom.

With a bit of caution in his heart, Xiao Xiao carefully put away the black notebook which now looked particularly "high-end".

With a quick glance, he saw the Swiss Army knife on the boss's desk that had not been put away. He wiped the sharp blade, took a deep breath silently, and finally made up his mind to cut his finger.

At first he didn't dare to cut too deep and stopped immediately when he saw bleeding.

Hiss~ It hurts so much, it's simply self-torture, Xiao Xiao complained while opening his eyes wide, staring at his fingers without blinking.

There was an obvious knife mark on the raised finger, and the skin and flesh could be seen curled up, with blood slowly oozing out.

Hmm? Xiao Xiao wiped the blood off his finger with a tissue and found that the skin of the finger that should have been injured was smooth, without any trace of the previous knife marks.

It happened so fast that Xiao Xiao didn't even blink, but when he looked again, his finger was already healed.

It seems that the cut was too shallow.

After this attempt, Xiao Xiao felt more confident.

It was the same finger, but this time it was almost cut off.

He is also ruthless and impatient to try again and again to see where his limits are.

However, he became a little flustered when he looked at his finger that was bleeding profusely. He had not intended to cut so deep, but he did not control the strength well and cut too deep.

After all, he was a novice and it was understandable that he was not familiar with the business, but he was the one who suffered.

Xiao Xiao felt like crying but had no tears. What if his finger was really broken?
Eh, it doesn’t seem to hurt as much?

His eyes were fixed on his fingers in a strange way.

The moment before, he was still panicking that he had been too harsh and was afraid that his finger would be broken. What should he do?

I didn't even dare to touch the wound. I just dared to close my fingers loosely to prevent them from succumbing to gravity and falling off.

The next moment, he was surprised to find that the blood on his finger had not increased at all, and the finger that was originally shaky was now intact.

He subconsciously flexed his fingers without feeling any pain or discomfort.

He moved a little closer, rubbed his eyes vigorously, first carefully touched a scarlet finger, and the next moment he rubbed his fingers roughly.

Ha, it's really healed! In just a short period of time, less than a minute!
The disordered and tense heartbeat finally returned to normal, then rose high again in the blink of an eye, and then fell heavily. Xiao Xiao felt a little dizzy.

Xiao Xiao took a tissue and slowly wiped the blood off his hands. The fingers that were supposed to have deep cuts were restored to their original state, and there was no hindrance or pain when his fingers were bent and closed.

This scene, which was supposed to happen in a novel, actually happened to him. He felt as if he was dreaming.

After these two experiments, Xiao Xiao let go and started cutting all over his body.

He is not invulnerable to swords and guns like the protagonists in some novels, where the so-called invulnerability only leaves a white mark on the skin. Instead, he has amazing recovery ability. When injured, he does not need treatment and the wound will heal quickly without leaving any trace.

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but wonder, was he captured by aliens and experimented on while he was sleeping?
But no matter what, at least for now, this is a good thing, a pie in the sky!
Xiao Xiao was quite complacent about his "invincible" cockroach body.

He did not measure the limit of his body's healing ability. After all, he did not have a tendency to self-abuse. Cutting himself was already the maximum he could do. He could not bring himself to hurt himself any further.

Moreover, in his opinion, this level of self-healing was sufficient. He was just an ordinary student, so how could he be seriously injured? Unless he was extremely unlucky and suffered an accident caused by natural disasters or man-made disasters, he could only blame himself for his bad luck.

Haha, brother can also enjoy the treatment of the protagonist. Xiao Xiao is in a very happy mood.

……

Xiao Xiao didn't think too much about the inexplicable changes in his body. He accepted it calmly and adapted well. After all, it was a good thing.

However, he was not too happy. After reading so many novels, he knew what the consequences would be if he exposed his specialness without any scruples. He had no intention of being caught in the laboratory and being a guinea pig.

Therefore, Xiao Xiao could only be happy in secret.

However, when walking on the familiar campus again, he would always look around from time to time, subconsciously looking for the monster called Ear Mouse, or any other monster?
A few days passed like this, and just when he thought the little monster might have left the campus and felt a little regretful, he unexpectedly saw it again.

It was under a big banyan tree. The scattered sunlight gently shone through the lush branches and leaves, casting a mottled and blurry light on the ground.

The monster named Ear Mouse was squatting with its head held high. Its strange appearance and the interweaving of light and shadow made it seem like a fleeting glimpse, almost making people think it was an illusion.

Xiao Xiao opened his eyes wide, without blinking, fearing that he would lose the monster again.

After hesitating for a while, and then looking around as if he was guilty, Xiao Xiao finally walked quietly under the tree.

It's impossible to say that I'm not curious about monsters, right?
Besides, this monster looks small. Although it has an intimidating aura, it should not be a ferocious and powerful monster, right?

Xiao Xiao was thinking randomly while approaching the monster cautiously.

He was so focused that he forgot to hide his expression, and didn't notice the strange looks others were giving him.

After all, in the eyes of others, Xiao Xiao approached the empty tree with a cautious look on his face, which inevitably made people feel a little absurd, funny, and a little weird.

Several people could not help but stop and look, and carefully examined it from top to bottom, left to right. It was just an ordinary banyan tree, and there was nothing under the tree. They sighed and left, thinking that the strange man was another mentally ill person.

Many people lament that there are more and more mentally ill patients these days.

But no one asked anything, they just shook their heads and walked away quickly.

No matter what, there is always something creepy about mentally ill people.

Xiao Xiao didn't know that he was already a mental patient in the eyes of others. His entire attention was on the monster that was getting closer and closer.

When he was only three steps away from the monster, the monster turned its head, its scarlet eyes were cold and ferocious, as if two sharp swords were breaking through the air.

Suddenly, Xiao Xiao seemed to hear the sound of the air being cut.

Xiao Xiao subconsciously narrowed his eyes, only to feel a sharp pain between his eyebrows, which made his nerves tense and his hair stand on end.

The monster stared at him without blinking, and he stood frozen three steps away.

The sun was scorching, and my slightly narrowed eyes looked a little dazed.

A strong wind swept past.

When he opened his eyes again, the monster was gone.

The only sound I could hear was the rustling of branches.

Xiao Xiao felt a little regretful, but also laughed at his own performance.

I have been looking for monsters intentionally or unintentionally these days, and when I really see one, I get so scared that my limbs become cold.

Is this what is called Ye Gong’s love of dragons?
It's just a little monster...

I wonder if I will have the chance to see the kind of big monster described in the legends in the future?
Under the warm sunshine, Xiao Xiao felt his previously cold limbs gradually warming up. Looking up, he saw a bright sky.

Well, it’s such nice weather.
