Chapter 23 I’m so awesome because I can see at night!
"Hahaha!" Xu Ge laughed loudly towards the sky.
The little Si dog was startled and ran back with a whimper.
Li Dongshui frowned: "What's wrong with you again?"
"Let's go back." Xu Ge stood up, lit up the skill grid as he walked, and added the remaining two skill points to the new skill.
Sniffing: Elementary (3/5).
boom!
Xu Ge only felt a sudden loud noise in his head, and the whole world immediately became different!
Chirp, chirp! The sound of an unknown bird in the distance.
Rustle! The sound of snowflakes rolling on the sand and stones.
Woo woo woo! The sound of the wind blowing.
Buzz! The sound of the air conditioner in the barracks not far away.
Suddenly, many sounds that I had never heard or paid attention to before came into my ears, and even the sound of snowflakes falling could be faintly heard!
Xu Ge looked up and saw a very three-dimensional snowflake falling right in front of him.
It took him a moment to react. Not only his hearing, but his vision seemed to have changed as well!
I sniffed, and hundreds of familiar and unfamiliar smells instantly flooded into my nasal cavity, stimulating the analytical nerves in my brain.
The massive amount of information elements directly impacted Xu Ge so much that he felt dizzy and couldn't even walk steadily.
Li Dongshui held him and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Ge scratched his ears and turned his head: "Why are you so loud?"
Li Dongshui: ???
"I wasn't very loud, was I?"
"Don't move, let me slow down!"
Xu Ge leaned on Li Dongshui, closed his eyes and began to slowly adapt to this new world.
He smelled the odor coming from the military dog squad's kitchen more than a hundred meters away and heard the sound of snowflakes falling overhead.
What is certain now is that the sense of smell and hearing are indeed several times stronger than before, the vision has not changed much, but the range of vision has become wider.
After a long while, Xu Ge slowly opened his eyes and returned to the familiar world.
My sense of smell and hearing are so abnormal at the beginner level, what will it be like at the master level?!
"What happened to you just now?" Li Dongshui asked curiously when he saw Xu Ge return to normal.
Xu Ge shook his head: "It's okay, I was a little dizzy just now, but I'm fine now. Let's go quickly."
"What are you in such a hurry for?"
"Aren't you hungry? There is a tricycle selling things in front!" Xu Ge said lightly.
"How did you know I was hungry?" Li Dongshui looked ahead. The road was empty. "Where is there anyone selling anything?"
Xu Ge didn't say anything and quickened his pace. He could hear the boy's stomach rumbling through his coat.
After turning a corner, a tricycle parked on the side of the road appeared, and the stall owner was leaning on the car and chewing spicy strips.
Li Dongshui was shocked: "Fuck, how did you know there were people selling things here?"
Xu Ge smiled. He could smell the spicy strips clearly from a hundred meters away.
Li Dongshui was buying things, while Xu Ge was silently sensing his surroundings.
Now that he has gradually adapted, he has a rough idea of the basic sniffing ability, which is that he can capture smells within a radius of 200 meters, and can hear sounds of normal decibels within 50 meters.
Just based on these two points, his perception surpasses everyone he knows.
No, Thor's vision is also extremely sharp.
When Xu Ge thought of this, he looked around and found that the view was indeed much wider.
If the combined visual angle of a normal human's two eyes is 180 degrees, then he now has at least 200 degrees, which means that Xu Ge's peripheral vision can now see a wider range.
In addition, Xu Ge also found that he had become very sensitive to the dynamic capture of objects in his field of vision. Even if there was a slight change in position, his eyes would automatically follow.
At this point, Xu Ge finally figured out that this new sniffing skill could not only enhance his sense of smell, but also his hearing and vision. No wonder the word "sniff" was in the skill's name.
In other words, Xu Ge now possesses a weakened version of the same perception ability as the little Si dog!
This ability actually has very limited effect on the little Si dog, but if it is applied to a human like me who has a high IQ and can analyze, identify and integrate information, it would be incredible!
. . .
. . .
Until the lights were almost turned off at night, Xu Ge was learning how to ignore the unnecessary smells and sounds from the outside world.
It was only at this time that he realized that being too sensitive was not always a good thing.
In fact, in the human world, there are all kinds of smells and sounds at every moment, but everyone has learned to automatically filter out those uninteresting factors in their day-to-day lives.
Xu Ge is now like a baby who needs to start learning this skill from scratch, otherwise his life will be seriously disrupted. He is even worried that he will develop neurasthenia.
There's no way, my perception is too sharp!
For example, just now, he was sitting on a stool in a daze, and the beeping sound of the test alarm in the combat duty room downstairs made him shudder.
In the past, he could never hear this kind of sound.
Also, there are those unbearable smells around him!
The smell of stinky socks, the smell of hydrogen sulfide, skatole, and volatile fatty acids excreted by the human body, the smell of disinfectant on veterans' sheets and quilts, and the smell of dead insects...
All of this made Xu Ge have no way to escape and he was on the verge of going crazy!
He knew he had to adapt to this situation as quickly as possible, so on weekends, while everyone was having fun, he stayed alone in the dormitory, silently enduring all kinds of smells and sounds, and trying hard to improve his sensory threshold.
"Xu Ge!"
Guo Yuanshuai had already lain down in bed when he suddenly remembered something. Seeing that Xu Ge had not yet gotten into bed, he called him over.
"What's wrong, Deputy Class Leader?" Xu Ge came to Guo Yuanshuai's bedside.
Guo Yuanshuai patted his bed and said, "Sit here. I want to ask you something."
Xu Ge sat over and sat next to Guo Yuanshuai.
"Did that idiot say anything else when he gave you something last time?" Guo Yuanshuai asked in a low voice.
Xu Ge didn't react at first: "Which idiot... Oh, Wolf Head! He didn't say anything, just asked how you were feeling lately."
"Didn't he say he was going out on a mission? Did he say how long he would be gone?"
"About one or two months."
Guo Yuanshuai frowned and thought for a moment: "Counting the days, they've been gone for over half a month. I hope our battle preparations this time are just a false alarm like before!"
"Deputy squad leader, what do you mean? Is our battalion's combat readiness related to Hidden Wolf and the others?" Xu Ge also lowered his voice.
Guo Yuanshuai: "According to the information conveyed by the battalion commander, this is most likely the case."
Xu Ge then recalled what Wolf Head had said to him last time, and asked in confusion, "Deputy Squad Leader, last time Wolf Head said that our Border Quick Reaction Force had better not have any contact with the Hidden Wolves for the rest of our lives. What did that mean?"
"Didn't you hear what the battalion commander said? Our mission is to provide border support."
Guo Yuanshuai explained, "Once we're needed, it means the troops out on the mission have been caught by the enemy and need support. They definitely hope to never have to deal with us again!"
Xu Ge suddenly realized: "If that's the case, then if we really go out this time, it means that something has happened to Yinlang and the others..."
"Shut up! Quick, bah bah bah!" Guo Yuanshuai glared at Xu Ge, "Don't say anything nonsense!"
"Pah, pah, pah!"
Because the two were too close, Xu Ge accidentally spat in Guo Yuanshuai's face.
"I'm sorry, Vice-President, I didn't mean to..."
"roll!"
Xu Ge returned to his bed dejectedly, and as usual took out his phone to chat with Lin Wan before going to sleep.
After the two chatted for a while, Xu Ge asked Lin Wan if there was any way to ignore the surrounding interference as quickly as possible.
Lin Wan asked Xu Ge to explain in more detail, and Xu Ge vaguely described the general situation, which was nothing more than that he suddenly became sensitive to sounds and smells.
Self-suggestion and diverting attention, this is the method Lin Wan gave.
She said that you can take ten deep breaths before going to bed to calm your mind completely and focus on self-awareness, or find something else to focus most of your attention on.
Xu Ge: I’m about to go to bed, why are you looking for something to distract me?
Lin Wan: Chat with me, give me your full attention. Don't worry, I'll respond accordingly! When you feel sleepy, just go to sleep. Don't worry about me.
Xu Ge: Let me try. Doctor Lin, where is your hometown?
Lin Wan: Beijiang, what about you?
Xu Ge: I'm from the Central Plains. How many people are there in your family? Besides your sister, do you have any other siblings?
Lin Wan made a sweating face: I told you to concentrate on chatting, not to check my household registration here!
Xu Ge: Oh, then how should we talk about it?
Lin Wan: How about this, I ask questions and you answer them, and I’ll take the lead?
Xu Ge: Yes.
Lin Wan: Do you have a girlfriend? Have you ever been in a relationship?
Xu Ge: No, we never talked about it.
Lin Wan: Have you ever fantasized about the opposite sex? When did it start? How old were you when you first had an erotic dream?
Xu Ge: Doctor Lin, I’m sleepy.
No, this topic led by Dr. Lin is too late, isn't it?!
Xu Ge turned off his phone, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
But to be honest, after Lin Wan's interruption, his attention was indeed diverted, and the external interference at that moment was much smaller.
Xu Ge began to try to regain his previous feeling, and silently answered Lin Wan's questions in his mind.
What boy hasn't had fantasies about the opposite sex? When was your first time? I think I was 14 or 15...
Unconsciously, Xu Ge fell asleep in his wild thoughts.
Crash!
In the middle of the night, Xu Ge suddenly opened his eyes. He was awakened by the sound of drainage in the pipes outside the building.
Damn! Why is someone still using the bathroom at this hour? Don't they know they can hold it in until dawn?
This is the disadvantage of having keen hearing. Before, this kind of sound would never have disturbed me.
Xu Ge sighed, feeling his mouth a little dry. He got up naturally and walked to the study table. He took his water cup, opened it, and drank two gulps.
Just as he put down his water cup and prepared to walk back, he suddenly froze in place.
Oh shit!
How can I see so clearly?!
Xu Ge stretched out his hands, and the lines on his palms could be clearly seen.
No, how come my eyesight is better than during the day?!
Xu Ge noticed something unusual and quickly glanced around. He found that everything around him had a clear outline in his eyes. He could even see clearly who was sleeping with their heads covered in the dormitory.
You know, it’s 2 a.m. now and the whole dormitory is dark!
In an instant, Xu Ge thought of the reason, it was still because of the sniffing skill.
Because dogs can see everything clearly in the dark!
After figuring this out, Xu Ge immediately went to the window and looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance.
What appeared in the eyes were also clear outlines, and even every stone on the vast Gobi Desert was within sight.
He was very sure that even in the moonlight before, he could only see a vague shadow.
Wow!
Night vision? That's kind of cool!
An idea suddenly popped up in Xu Ge’s mind: With my super strong sense of smell and hearing, wouldn’t I be awesome at night?
Especially on the battlefield, when both the enemy and us do not have night vision capabilities, we are completely attacking those enemies who hide in the dark and think they are hidden!
