Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga
Chapter 62: Urban Legend - The Crow Man
Late November.
More than half a month has passed since the events of Halloween.
Hangar.
Shen Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood on the high platform, and looked at the mecha that was already mostly assembled in front of him. A faint smile appeared on his lips.
The mech in front of me, which is nearly 60 meters tall, only has the cockpit, power reactor, and arms that are not yet fully assembled.
"At the current pace, this mech should be completed by late December at the latest."
Because its interior is entirely composed of ligandron biological tissues, the assembly speed is greatly accelerated.
Shen Yun looked down and saw that the mecha's skeleton was wrapped in pink biological tissue, with various cables connected to the internal skeletal system through this tissue.
It's like a monster covered in an alloy shell.
However, the advantage of this is that it allows the mech to output power far exceeding that of ordinary monsters, and the assembly speed is also very fast.
"Alright, that's enough for today. We'll continue tomorrow." Shen Yun waved his hand, indicating that it was time to go home.
After leaving the hangar, Shen Yun returned to his research institute to analyze the artificially synthesized drugs.
After his research and analysis over this period of time, he discovered that although the drug inside the lollipop was not from Earth, its compounds could be artificially synthesized.
Although they had failed several times before, they finally managed to create this special drug through artificial synthesis.
Although this drug has only been used on animals so far, Shen Yun has roughly figured out its effects.
Because it is a synthetic drug, its efficacy has been significantly reduced.
Although he cannot manipulate children like Kiranbo, he can have the same effect on adults.
Unlike Kiranbo, which only targets children and has little impact on adults.
Anyone who drinks the drug he concocts will fall into a dazed state, whether they are an adult or a child.
At this point, he or she will believe whatever others say.
Even after waking up, the other person won't feel that anything is wrong.
"What kind of common sense is this?" Shen Yun rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
His original plan was not to develop such a thing.
"I'm a little hungry. Let's see what we can eat in the cafeteria."
Shen Yun glanced at the time; it was almost nine o'clock at night, roughly time for a late-night snack.
After sealing the vial, Shen Yun quickly went to the canteen inside TPC.
At this time, there were still quite a few people in the TPC cafeteria.
"Shen Jun! Over here!" Karen waved to Shen Yun as soon as she saw him.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yun looked up and saw Karen and Mayumi sitting at a table in the cafeteria eating a late-night snack.
After getting her food, Shen Yun sat down opposite Karen with her tray in hand.
He looked at Mayumi, who was dressed as a nurse, and asked, "Mayumi, are you on duty today?"
Although the TPC base is located offshore, its security is extremely thorough.
People take turns on duty and patrol every day, and the medical department also has people on duty in shifts.
The Victory Team is on standby 24/7.
"Yeah." Mayumi nodded, pouting, "Night shifts are so boring. Luckily, Karen-chan keeps me company."
As she spoke, Mayumi hugged Karen and rubbed her face against Karen's.
"By the way, have you heard of the recent urban legends?" Mayumi asked mysteriously, as if she had suddenly remembered something.
"Urban legends? Aren't they all lies?" Karen asked curiously.
"Of course I know it's a lie, but it's very interesting," Mayumi said with a smile.
Shen Yun buried himself in his rice; he wasn't very interested in this kind of topic.
Urban legend?
All fear stems from insufficient firepower.
Do you even know what physical exorcism is?
"That's true." Karen nodded in agreement, then asked, "So what kind of urban legend is it?"
"Don't be afraid of what I'm about to tell you," Mayumi said in a creepy, ghost-story-like tone.
"Mayumi-chan, stop keeping me in suspense and just tell me," Karen urged.
Mayumi didn't keep them in suspense any longer and said directly, "They're crow people."
A crow-man? (Alert)
Shen Yunqian paused in his eating and immediately perked up his ears to listen.
Mayumi continued, "I've heard that crow people are the vengeful spirits of crows killed by humans, who possess humans and use them to take revenge. Humans captured by crow people become their accomplices."
"Moreover, the Crowmen specifically target lone individuals; all the crows in the metropolis serve as their eyes and ears."
"Be careful if you're walking alone at night, the crow people might spot you and kidnap you."
"A crow person?" Karen asked curiously, "What do crow people look like?"
"I don't know either, but since they're called Crow People, they must be half human and half crow," Mayumi guessed.
Upon hearing this, Karen took out a pen and paper, drew a picture, and asked, "Is it like this?"
Shen Yun glanced at the drawing of the raven-man by Karen. It was half human face, half raven face, half human body, half raven body, half human hand, half raven wing, half human leg, and half bird leg. It looked quite comical.
"Pfft! This can't possibly be left and right, can it?" Mayumi burst out laughing when she saw Kallen's drawing of the crow people, and couldn't help but complain.
"So that's up and down." Karen picked up her paintbrush again and quickly drew a new picture.
This time, Karen drew a crow-man with a human head but a crow's body.
Incidentally, the human head that Kallen drew has a receding hairline with a few sparse hairs, looking exactly like a middle-aged office worker.
It doesn't feel like an urban legend at all; on the contrary, it's quite funny.
"Pfft, haha! This is hilarious!" Mayumi clutched her stomach and laughed.
This is hilarious! I never expected Karen to have such a strong comedic talent.
Shen Yun couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the picture.
"Did I draw it wrong? What's so funny?" Karen looked at the smiles on Shen Yun and Mayumi's faces, puffed out her cheeks, and said with dissatisfaction.
It's terrifying to have a crow with a human head standing outside your window staring at you, isn't it?
This is the Crow Man she designed based on horror elements from many horror movies.
They really don't know how to appreciate things!
"Ahem, I was just thinking about something happy." Shen Yun coughed twice, his smile fading.
"What's making you happy?"
"I'm old..." Shen Yun was about to blurt out the words etched in his DNA, but thankfully he changed his words in time, saying:
"Ahem, that's not important. Try drawing it upside down."
"Turn it upside down?" Karen turned the painting upside down.
"It's about drawing a crow's head and a human body," Shen Yun said.
"I understand." Karen suddenly realized, and then picked up her brush and drew another picture.
A crow-man with a crow's head and a human body appeared on the paper.
"It might just be the crow man from urban legends, that's it!" Mayumi said confidently, looking at the crow man that Kallen had drawn.
Looking at the crow-man on the paper, with its crow's head and human body, Shen Yun suppressed his smile.
Urban legends are not without foundation.
While most urban legends are false, this crow-man is most likely a Lebik alien, if nothing else.
