Chapter 134: Seriously, Who’s Not Normal?

However, just as Xiang Kun was about to leverage the momentum to twist the vampire’s arm and suppress him to the ground, a sudden change occurred.

The handsome, well-dressed vampire with the slick-backed hair in front of him suddenly transformed into a creature over two meters tall, with eight eyes on its head, various protruding lumps, a large mouth full of sharp teeth, and eight arms!

The appearance of the monster was so abrupt it was as if the vampire was supposed to look like this all along. He even smelled the various stench discharge from the monster’s body, felt his hand growing larger, and that the texture of the skin was completely different from before, uneven and slightly slippery.

“Holy shit!…”

Xiang Kun was genuinely startled. Reacting instinctively, he let go and jumped back while slashing forward with the small white knife he had taken from the vampire’s hand.

The position was supposed to be where the vampire’s neck was, but now it was the monster’s chest.

When Xiang Kun retreated quickly five or six meters and looked again, he was stunned to find that the over two meters tall eight-armed monster had disappeared instantly. Only the handsome vampire was left, covering his neck and stumbling backward, with blood constantly flowing from his fingers.

Was that just an illusion? A visual trick?

Xiang Kun felt baffled. It was impossible. That touch, that smell, even with his peripheral vision he noticed the shadow on the ground had indeed transformed into a tall monster.

But he didn’t have time to ponder as he quickly caught up and easily restrained the panicking vampire trying to escape.

Xiang Kun opened his eyes, and forcefully sat up from the ground, glanced around, and with the help of his night vision ability, noticed the shirt, suit jacket, leather shoes, etc., beside him. As for the vampire, he was nowhere to be found,

Of course, he didn’t run away.

Xiang Kun checked the time on his phone while recalling the previous situation.

It was 1:12 on October 9th.

Calculating the time spent in bringing the vampire here and the brief encounter, Xiang Kun estimated that after drinking blood, he had slept for approximately 30-40 minutes, a duration even shorter than that after drinking the Owl’s blood.

Xiang Kun could feel a significant enhancement in his bodily functions. His hearing, smell, vision, and other sensory abilities, which had reached a bottleneck after his previous evolution, had again evidently strengthened. It felt like the world had been stripped of a filter, becoming even clearer.

Xiang Kun stood up and gathered the clothes and other items left by the vampire. He packed them all in the suit jacket and hid them in a pile of grass. He intended to purchase a backpack outside first, then return to retrieve these items. Carrying these packed in just the suit jacket might attract attention and appear strange.

After falling asleep, he had a dream where he experienced various scenarios as if he was watching a VR movie.

Having experienced drinking the giant owl’s blood, he wasn’t surprised and realized these were the vampire’s memories.

However, possibly because this vampire was transformed from a human and compared to the owl, the vampire’s memories were far more numerous and not in chronological order. They consisted of a mix of disjointed fragments, and many scenes were hard to comprehend without knowing the cause and effect.

The majority of them were scenes of him slaughtering humans or animals and then drinking blood. Surprisingly, a large proportion of those being slaughtered were black or white people. Judging from the surroundings, it seemed not to be in his own country but in a remote, backward nation, possibly in a war-torn African country.

He also saw a nurse open the door and bring in a syringe filled with blood, addressing him as Dr. Guo.

After the nurse left and the door was closed, he immediately took out the blood from the syringe and gulped it down.

He also saw the vampire pleasantly talking to a homeless man scavenging through rubbish by the road. He offered food and medical assistance from a charity organization and suggested he tag along, convincing the homeless man to get in the van he was driving.

Apart from drinking blood, he was mostly having sexual relations with various women.

Additionally, there were a large number of disjointed scenes and fragments that made it difficult to ascertain the specific circumstances.

In essence, Xiang Kun found the experiences of this vampire to be entirely dissimilar to his own aside from their shared blood-drinking habit.

He did not see this vampire engage in any targeted training other than direct confrontations with humans and animals. It felt like, apart from hectic attempts to draw human blood, his entire time was spent on sleeping with women.

However, he seemed to have amassed considerable wealth. Xiang Kun saw him living in a luxury mansion with a pool, saw luxury apartments on high floors with floor-to-ceiling windows offering broad ocean views, saw him being attended to by beautiful women in the back seat of a Maybach, saw him driving a Porsche convertible, and cruising with gorgeous women.

What a perverse, monstrous brute!

Xiang Kun cursed inwardly. As a “good vampire” who only drinks chicken and rabbit blood, he felt contempt and a sense of superiority towards the “evil vampire.”

However, he couldn’t help but wonder, if that vampire drank his blood, what memories would he see?

Stabbing himself with a knife for an observation experiment?

Burning himself with fire for an observation experiment?

Cutting his own flesh with a knife for an observation experiment?

Scrolling through biology, medical, computer-related books, textbooks, or articles on the screen; training his olfactory sense in various odorous places; running on a deserted hill at night with a weight vest for uphill and downhill drills; staring at a tissue for a long time; staring at a coin for a long time; staring at a ballpoint ball for a long time; seriously smelling a canary’s droppings to analyze its health and dietary condition…

Xiang Kun couldn’t help but touch his nose. It seemed… he was not very normal either.

In those memories, he saw the vampire signing contracts under the name “Guo Tianxiang”, but in another scene, he saw him typing “Li Ting’an” onto a screen. He wasn’t sure which one was his real name, or if either of them were his real name at all.

Despite the scattered memories, Xiang Kun identified several key time frames from certain scenes.

In one of them, the calendar on the wall showed the year 2010. And in that same scene, he was also drinking blood.

In other words, this guy had been a vampire for at least nine years!

A nine-year-old vampire? Xiang Kun found it difficult to comprehend why this vampire was so much weaker than he was, a vampire of less than three months?

Moreover, from his memories, the number of times he consumed blood was too countless to measure. In this case, why were his strength, speed, agility, and so on so comparably weaker?

Of course, weak here was relative to him. To an average person, this vampire would already be regarded as overpoweringly strong.

But this was a minimum of nine years!

Did vampires degrade over time?
