The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 1349: Noobie’s Abnormal Behavior

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Vivian would hurl a Lightning Ball or merely run away every time she saw Hessiana. But deep inside her, Vivian still cared about her “offspring.” Especially when she learned of bat’s strange situation, her face turned grave.

“The Blood Clan doesn’t dream,” Vivian explained to Hao Ren. “Of course, I’m an exception. But Hessiana’s situation is consistent with ordinary vampires. When I made Hessiana, I regarded myself as a vampire. Naturally, Hessiana evolved into the characteristics of the standard Blood Clan.”

“So is she influenced by illusion spell,” Hao Ren glanced at the bat, who shot back with an unwelcome stare and snort, “or other things?”

“I didn’t find traces of illusion spell.” Vivian shook her head. She had a connection at the soul-level with Hessiana, Vivian had carefully examined Hessiana through this connection and ruled out the possibility of illusion spell. “I suspect that what she had seen my memory.”

“Your memory?” Lily was a little surprised. “Battie, you still have memory?”

“Get lost! I’m not asking for advice from you.” Vivian glared at Lily. “I might be forgetful, but I remember a lot of things. The ‘dreams’ that Hessiana has had are my past experience. It’s not hers. Plus, she is like part of me, so what is wrong with her inheritance of some of my memories in her soul?”

Hao Ren hemmed and then said, “I think it is better to have it checked. Hessiana, would you like to go with us?”

At first, the bat was to refuse, but when she saw Vivian standing beside her, she changed her mind. “I do! I’d like Vivian to check my body personally.”

Vivian’s face twitched and mumbled, “I think this kid must have misunderstood.”

Since Hao Ren and Vivian had finished their business here, and with the convenience of the teleporting machine, they brought Hessiana back to their home in Southern Suburbs. As soon as they reached home, Hao Ren immediately shoved the bat into the coffin—medical pod—in the basement.

Hessiana’s wish of being examined by Vivian did not materialize. Instead, it was Hao Ren that threw her into the ‘coffin.’

The medical examination completed in no time and the report indicated that Hessiana was normal.

Noobie was as fit as a fiddle. The bat even chased Hao Ren for about ten minutes as if she was high on drugs. Vivian tromped her to the ground.

With Hessiana now under the foot of Vivian, Hao Ren looked at the bat with the medical report in hand. “It seems that you are not sick, not a malignant disease. All you need is drink plenty of water, go to bed early, and eat less meat.”

“Mr. Landlord, that sounds familiar,” Lily said.

“Usually that’s what everybody says when having no idea about the treatment,” Hao Ren said.

Hessiana pouted as she looked at the MDT in Hao Ren’s hands; it was the MDT that projected her examination result with a hologram. Hessiana was doubtful. “Is this thing reliable?”

“It’s more reliable than any doctors and quacks you can find. When it says you are okay, you are okay.” Hao Ren shot the bat a sideways glance. “But Vivian’s bloodline is unique, which also makes you unique. So I will keep an eye on you. But you have to keep track of your changes. If you dream again, recording what you see in your dream and notify us immediately.”

“Now this sounds more professional,” Hessiana mumbled. Her eyes started to dart around. It was not like Hessiana had the chance to come here often, she had to look around Vivian’s living quarters as if it was a pilgrimage.

While Hessiana looked around, a small figure that emerged suddenly from the corner of the wall shocked her.

It was evening. The Noobie, waking up from her nap like clockwork, came out of the mouse hole. The little thing bared her fangs and brandished her claws as if she was doing an exercise. After that, Noobie lunged at Hao Ren and fired a Shadow Bolt.

“Biubiubiu! Aah~~.”

“What’s going on?” Hessiana was stunned. She bounced on her feet with a pair of translucent bat wings on her back. “How come this thing looks like Vivian?”

At this time, the Noobie had noticed the stranger in the living hall—no one knows whether Noobie can recognize if one is a stranger, but let us assume that she can—and bounced into the air with an Ahh! With extreme cautiousness, Noobie lunged at Hessiana. “Ghsss—”

Hessian was shocked by this sudden ‘attack.’ With the stroke of her hand, Hessiana smashed Noobie away. “What the heck is this?”

Noobie screeched as she was sent flying backward and dropped into a large teapot of Y’zaks at the other end of the living hall.

Y’zaks, reading the paper, looked up at the teapot and then Hao Ren before asking, “Is this a new flavor?”

Hao Ren was dumbfounded.

“Is this your offspring?” Hessiana came to her senses. She calmed down. Her eyes affixed on Noobie, who climbed out of the teapot and shimmered with two pieces of tea leaves on the head. But Noobie was full of spirit and firing her Shadow Bolts at Y’zaks. “Biubiubiu, pupu~~.”

The biggest damage the Shadow Bolts did was burning a few holes in the newspaper in Y’zaks’ hands.

Noobie was excited to imagine herself as a demolition king, but she could damage nothing at all.

Hessiana was wide-eyed. Her eyes and her finger darted between Hao Ren and Vivian. “You both have...”

Without waiting for Hessiana to finish, Vivian summoned a bright lightning ball in her hand and warned, “You would become a retard for half a year after struck with this lightning ball. I dare you to continue to spew nonsense.”

The lightning ball scared Hessiana, who grew up being struck by it countless time. “Ahem, Who is she?” Hessiana quickly asked.

“Remember the Malevolence?” Hao Ren reminded. “It’s the senseless ‘evil spirit.’

“You mean this is...” Hessiana could not believe what she heard.

“Yes, it is.” Hao Ren pointed to Noobie who was scampering around on the coffee table not far away. “This thing split from Vivian’s body while Vivian was sleeping. We don’t know why but this thing isn’t the same as a descendant of the blood as you are. She is completely a Malevolence formed by negative energy.”

Hessiana, seeing Vivian and everyone else nodding, believed what Hao Ren said at last. She then came up to Noobie, curiously looking at the little thing that was still behaving threateningly. “But it looks so cute. It’s not a threat at all.”

“All creatures look cute when they are small,” Vivian said. “You were very cute when you were a tiny little bat.”

Noobie had no idea that everyone was talking about her. She just scurried around to vent her excess energy. A moment later, Noobie suddenly stopped and remained quiet.

Tilting her head seemingly listening to some distant sound, Noobie began to emit a subtle glow on her body.

At first, Hao Ren thought that he had an illusion. But it was real. Just when he was about to examine Noobie, the glow disappeared, and Noobie shook her head and began to scream.

Lily had also seen what happened. “What happened just now?”

“Who knows,” Vivian replied casually. “She has always been irrational and been retarded suddenly.”

Hao Ren shook his head, but he was not as careless as Vivian was.

Noobie’s external appearance would not fool him—a Malevolence was a Malevolence. No matter how weak this little thing was, she was still the ‘negative residue’ excreted from Vivian’s body. There was a reason for the sudden abnormal behavior of the Malevolence.

He decided to keep a close eye on Noobie. If her situation got stranger, Hao Ren would have to bring her to Raven 12345.
