Chapter 11 Rats

Chapter 11 Rat

Three days passed, and Zhou You and Shen Ling finally made preparations and were ready to go.

The two first used a rope to wrap the lock of Shen Ling's entrance door, and then pulled it.

The door opens.

The two of them worked together to push the door open completely.

The sweeping robot walked out along the multiple layers of cardboard that had been laid out in advance, and slowly moved out of the threshold.

When the robot reached the elevator entrance, the drone also approached the elevator. Zhou You pushed forward the long pole made of two chopsticks and pressed the elevator button.

The elevator door opens and the robot enters.

The drone also flew in thanks to its excellent hovering ability.

Zhou You repeated his old trick again, using chopsticks to press the button to go to the first floor.

The first batch sent out was the conveyor belt made by the two.

Finally, the sweeping robot arrived on the first floor and stopped beside the hybrid off-road vehicle.

The drone was parked on the roof of the off-road vehicle.

Shen Ling used the key in the carrier to control the vehicle to open the sunroof.

Zhou You threw down a thin hemp rope with knots every 5 centimeters from the basket, and then followed the hemp rope into the car. After a lot of trouble, he first turned on the car stereo and selected a song with heavy emphasis. For bass-based rock music, turn up the volume to a higher volume.

Then, he opened the car door from the inside.

Outside, Shen Ling had already slid a rope down from the roof of the car and dropped it into the door handle. Looking back, the two of them would use the door handle as a fulcrum to pull up the assembly parts of the conveyor belt one by one.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou You jumped off the car door threshold.

The door sill is more than 25 centimeters from the ground. If converted to the previous height, traveling around is equivalent to jumping from a height of five meters.

For people without professional training, this is an extremely dangerous behavior and can easily result in serious injury or even death.

However, after a few days of adapting to their bodies, Zhou You and Shen Ling noticed some changes after becoming smaller.

The most significant ones are naturally the parameters related to explosive power and strength that Shen Ling tested on the way back.

Compared with the past, the height that today's small humans can jump relative to their body, the relative speed when running, and the relative strength relative to their body weight have all increased significantly.

During these three days, Zhou You and Shen Ling tested more things.

There are also related studies on the Internet that are constantly being updated.

After all, the state machine is still functioning, and various scientific research work is gradually being carried out.

Humanity has indeed become different.

For example, many people test neural reaction speed by grabbing randomly dropped sticks.

Assume that in the previous test, ten sticks were placed in front of people's eyes, and then dropped randomly, and then raised their hands to grab them. When the center of gravity of the stick dropped to about 30 centimeters, an untrained normal person could catch it. .

But now that human height has shrunk twenty times, the original reaction distance of thirty centimeters has also shrunk to less than two centimeters.

This vertical drop reaction distance is consistent with the ratio of human height.

This means that people’s dynamic vision, neural responses, muscle responses and other data have been greatly improved compared to before.

In addition, scientists also found that the strength of human bones and tendons has not declined much compared to before. Considering that the average weight of humans today is only less than two hundred grams, this means that as long as they can adjust their falling posture, even if they fall from several times Even if it falls from a place ten times its height, it can still land safely like a cat.

In a sense, this is evolution.

It is precisely because of this forced advantageous evolution that today's human situation is not so difficult.

Although humans do not have the evolutionary advantages of super fecundity, sharp teeth and claws that most mammals of the same size possess, they can use metal weapons, process metal armor, and have unique wisdom.

These are all super advantages that humans have over other animals.

Thanks to these advantages, Zhou You and Shen Ling succeeded in getting the automatically deployable conveyor belt to extend into the car door despite some setbacks.

The first step is completed and the conveyor belt has been installed.

Zhou You and Shen Ling controlled the sweeping robot back to the elevator with a relaxed mood, and went up to the twelfth floor again, preparing for the second transportation.

But just as the two struggled to tie the rope and move the things, an accident happened.

Two mice came in through the wide open living room door.

As soon as the mouse entered the door, he bumped into the two of them. Fortunately, the conflict did not happen immediately.

The two mice seemed to have little interest in the two "same kind" whose heads were as big as their own, and were only busy looking for food.

In the past, this kind of rat that grew up in the community was not very afraid of people, but now it is even less afraid. It parades through the living room with a swagger, just like a lord patrolling his territory.

Zhou You and Shen Ling looked at each other with extremely nervous expressions.

Zhou You quickly glanced around him. The nearest weapon was a utility knife, so he quickly grabbed it.

Over there, the two mice went to the kitchen first. Unfortunately, Shen Ling, a technical geek who spent all her spare time as a UP majoring in graphics cards, did not have the habit of cooking by herself. The kitchen was empty except for two in the trash can.

The takeaway box that was not thrown away just smelled a little oily.

Then, the two mice immediately went straight to the living room and searched around based on the smell.

Zhou You and Shen Ling simultaneously turned their attention to the opened bag of potato chips not far away.

These potato chips were just the lunch for the two of them, and there was still a lot left in them.

The two mice seemed to have discovered the potato chips, but they did not come over immediately. Instead, they huddled in the corner with their heads facing each other, touching their mouths from time to time without making any sound.

Holding the utility knife in both hands, Zhou You, who was highly nervous, intuitively believed that the two mice were weighing and discussing to determine whether it was necessary to compete with his two "kinds" for food.

The results of the mice's discussion came out quickly. Without any warning, the two mice suddenly turned their heads and rushed toward Zhou You and Shen Ling.

Zhou You immediately protected Shen Ling behind him, holding the utility knife in both hands and stepping forward.

Unexpectedly, the two mice suddenly separated into two groups halfway through the journey.

The larger one suddenly changed direction, increased speed, and ran in an arc, trying to outflank it.

The smaller one squeaked like a demonstrator and swooped over.

Although Zhou You was somewhat mentally prepared, he was still an ordinary person at heart. He had never even killed a chicken, so he had no experience fighting an animal of similar size.

This description may be too complicated, but if you think of an ordinary person in the past facing a swooping oversized Tibetan mastiff, you can understand.

I saw the smaller one getting closer and closer to Zhou You from the front.

The bigger one also approaches from the side.

Its target was Shen Ling who was hiding behind.

Zhou You gritted his teeth, turned around, and decided to ignore the little mouse and focus on protecting Shen Ling.

He pushed Shen Ling to his side with his hand again, then hooked the utility knife with one hand, using his armpit as support, and barely swung it out horizontally.

If all goes well, the big rat will collide head-on with the blade of the utility knife.
