Zhao Lin originally dismissed the bat spirit.
Since getting the spirit beast map, he has been concerned about how to improve his combat power, such as strength, speed, armor, and even the ability to discharge electricity like an electric eel.
He doesn't care much about auxiliary abilities such as hearing and smell.
But the experience of the past few days made him realize the importance of reconnaissance.
If he had hearing as sensitive as a bat, he would never be attacked by a sneak attack!
What are the specialties of bats?
That is, of course, super hearing.
Any elementary school student in the past life will know that bats rely on echolocation to determine the direction, distance, size and other information of a target.
Radar was invented based on the principle of echolocation.
Another thing is that bats have poor eyesight, so their hearing can replace vision most of the time.
If I gained this ability, would I still have to worry about sneak attacks?
Thinking of this, Zhao Lin could no longer hold back and took a deep breath at the chrysanthemum-headed bat spirit that flew up to his mouth.
A small ball of silver light spread in the head.
Unlike the old scalpers, bear bears and black horned antelopes who focus on physical transformation, the changes caused by the horseshoe bat are mainly concentrated on the head.
The soul turned into three strands of silver light.
A stream of silver light entered the throat from the nose, and the other two streams entered the left and right ears respectively.
"Tu tu tu tu..."
Zhao Lin felt that his throat was equipped with an electric motor, vibrating at an extremely high frequency, his ears were buzzing, and all kinds of messy sounds came one after another.
Not physical pain, but mental torture.
He knew that this was the only way for the soul to transform the body. He was neither surprised nor afraid. He just closed his eyes and waited for the matter to pass.
During the tea time, the spirit animal picture flashed with brilliance, and a chrysanthemum-headed bat appeared on the third grid.
"I really didn't expect that I would choose a bat in the third grid of the spirit animal map."
Zhao Lin breathed a sigh of relief, listened carefully, and was surprised to find that his hearing had not changed much.
"Why is there no movement?"
Zhao Lin frowned. The effect of absorbing souls several times in the past was immediate, with strength and speed immediately added to his body.
"By the way, the bat's ultrasonic waves are emitted from the mouth and nose, and are received through the ears after encountering obstacles."
"In other words, I have to send out ultrasound first!"
Zhao Lin's heart moved, and his Adam's apple trembled rapidly and imperceptibly.
It's like dropping a pebble into a quiet lake, causing waves to spread out in all directions.
The water waves hit the rocks in the lake and swayed back...
Immediately afterwards, countless voices reached Zhao Lin's ears.
This sound is different from the sound heard by human ears. The ultrasonic waves are refracted back and bring various information together.
Zhao Lin can quickly outline the exact location, size, and shape of objects in his mind.
If the object is moving, continuous ultrasonic waves can also describe the moving direction of the object and even detailed movements.
Although it is called hearing, it is actually a dual experience similar to hearing and vision!
Ten meters away in the grass, a dung beetle was struggling to push the dung ball.
A squirrel takes a nap in a tree hole on the edge of the cliff.
A grasshopper sat quietly on the dog's tail grass, greedily chewing on the tender green grass leaves...
For a moment, Zhao Lin felt as if he had opened his eyes, overlooking the earth from a high altitude.
Everything that happens within a fifty-meter radius can be seen at a glance!
He closed his eyes and fully experienced this wonderful feeling, as if he had opened the door to a new world.
But soon, he became annoyed by the constant noise.
Because there are so many sounds that can be received, it is comparable to a bombardment of information, and it is completely impossible to process it in a short time.
Zhao Lin quickly stopped the vibration of his Adam's apple, and his hearing immediately returned to its original state.
But in this way, the annoyance is gone, but the excellent hearing is gone.
“It’s either annoying as hell or it’s ineffective.”
Zhao Lin thought for a while and thought of a way.
Instruct your Adam's apple to vibrate rapidly three times with every breath, so that you can receive the surrounding information without disturbing it too much.
After practicing for about half an hour, this movement has become as natural as breathing.
It is similar to a "standby" state: it can monitor external sounds at any time, and once it detects something unusual, it will fully activate the hearing.
If everything is normal, there will be no unwanted effects.
"good, very good!"
Zhao Lin was convinced that with this ability, he basically didn't have to worry about being attacked by others.
Coupled with his own speed, it is simply a life-saving weapon.
"How come you haven't thought of such an outstanding ability before?"
Zhao Lin began to re-examine his plan for the spirit beast map.
It seems that we need to think more and learn more about the beasts in this world.
Three of the nine grids have been used, so the next six must be used sparingly.
As your martial arts improves and you encounter more strange beasts, there will be more abilities waiting to be developed in the future.
Unlike other mammals, the horseshoe bat has relatively little modification to its body. Zhao Lin didn't feel very hungry. He ate a few pieces of dry food and then went into the cave to sleep.
The next day, return to Qinghe County.
Zhao Lin did not go directly to Liuhemen, but came to the morning market.
There are many people here and the environment is noisy, which is suitable for practicing listening.
Zhao Lin was wandering around the morning market, and his hearing was still on standby, emitting three ultrasound waves every other breath.
In this way, although it cannot receive continuous and complete sound, it can still hear all directions.
Several people were walking around behind, some were approaching, some were moving away, and you could see it clearly without looking back!
Try it again with full firepower!
Zhao Lin's Adam's apple vibrated at high speed, and what he heard was another scene.
"Cooking cakes, cooking cakes, freshly baked cooking cakes."
"Ms. Lin, look at how beautiful this floral cloth is. If you pull it off a few feet and make it into a pullover, it will definitely look good!"
"The plowshare is damaged. I asked Zhang Mu'er from the town to add one and a half kilograms of iron and beat it..."
The sound of footsteps, shouts, and the clinking of pots and pans from half a street all rushed towards me.
These sounds were too dense, and Zhao Lin felt uncomfortable again.
He suppressed the annoyance in his heart and listened patiently, trying to filter out the useless information and treating it as background white noise.
It must be said that people are very adaptable. It only took Zhao Lin less than half an hour to go from feeling nauseated and uncomfortable at the beginning to gradually adapting to fully accepting it.
"It's so useful!"
Zhao Lin had a smile on his face. If what happened a few days ago happened again, he would definitely be able to spot the assassin hiding behind the door from a long distance away.
Although ultrasonic waves cannot penetrate objects, unless the other party does not breathe or move, it cannot escape its "ear".
Leave the morning market and come to Liuhemen.
With his super hearing, Zhao Lin discovered that the breathing rhythm and footsteps of each apprentice were actually very different.
Although he cannot directly judge a person's level of cultivation based on this information, he can still roughly estimate the person's status and realm.
"I didn't expect hearing to have such a wonderful effect."
Zhao Lin took off his coat, walked to the iron pot, picked up a shovel, put the burned iron sand into a sack, swung it and beat it on his body.
"Brother Feilong, the boss has spoken and wants you to take action as soon as possible."
When it was almost noon, Zhao Lin's ears suddenly heard a voice coming from a distance.
