Chapter 291
Although he usually threw lightning bolts at Hesperiana or simply ran away when he saw her, Vivian actually cared a lot about this "descendant" of hers, so upon hearing the abnormal situation described by the little bat spirit, she immediately became serious.

"Bloodkin don't dream," Vivian explained to Hao Ren. "Of course, I'm an exception myself, but Hesperiana is the same as a normal vampire in this regard. When I created Hesperiana, I already regarded myself as a vampire, so Hesperiana naturally evolved into the characteristics of a standard bloodkin during her subsequent 'development'."

"So she's being affected by illusion magic?" Hao Ren glanced at the little bat spirit, who returned his gaze without any politeness and let out a cold snort. "Or is it something else?"

"I didn't find any traces of illusion magic," Vivian shook her head. She had a soul-level connection with Hesperiana, and she had just used this connection to conduct a careful examination of the latter and ruled out the possibility of being affected by illusion magic. "I suspect she saw my memories..."

"Your memories?" Lily was a little surprised. "Bat, you have memories?"

"Get lost, you can't expect ivory from a dog's mouth," Vivian glared at Lily. "Although I'm forgetful, I still have a lot of stuff in my head, okay? Many of those 'dreams' Hesperiana mentioned are things I experienced back then, and she didn't experience them. Plus, she herself is like a part split off from me, so is there anything wrong with her inheriting some of my memories in the depths of her soul?"

Hao Ren cleared his throat twice: "Ahem, in any case, I think it's better to check it out. Hesperiana, are you willing to come with us?"

The little bat spirit's first reaction was to subconsciously refuse, but before the words could come out of her mouth, she saw Vivian standing beside her, and immediately succumbed: "I'm especially willing! I want Master Vivian to personally give me a full-body checkup!"

Vivian's face twitched, and she muttered in a low voice, "I think this little brat must have misunderstood something..."

Since everything here had been dealt with, and there was a convenient space teleporter, Hao Ren and his party did not waste any time. They directly took Hesperiana back to their home in the southern suburbs, and then, without thinking twice, stuffed the little bat spirit into the coffin in the basement—oh goddess, these healing pods have finally come in handy again.

Obviously, the scene Hesperiana had been looking forward to, "Master Vivian personally in charge of the full-body checkup," did not appear. Even at the moment she was stuffed into the coffin, Hao Ren slapped her in.

The final results of the examination came out quickly, but the instruments showed that the little bat spirit was completely normal.

In fact, she was a little too healthy—after crawling out of the medical pod, she chased Hao Ren for ten minutes like she was on drugs, and she probably would have kept chasing him if Vivian hadn't kicked her down.

After everything settled down, Hao Ren looked at the examination report in his hand and said to Hesperiana, who was being suppressed by Vivian, "Alright, it seems you're not sick, at least not a malignant disease. Drink more water, go to bed early, and eat less meat..."

Lily asked from the side, "Landlord, landlord, why do I think these suggestions sound familiar?"

Hao Ren waved his hand: "Nonsense, everyone says that when they don't know how to treat something."

Hesperiana looked at the data terminal in Hao Ren's hand with puffed cheeks (her examination report was a holographic image projected by the terminal), her face full of suspicion: "Is this thing... really reliable?"

"More reliable than any doctor or charlatan you can find. If it says you're fine, then you're definitely fine," Hao Ren glanced at the little bat spirit. "But Vivian's bloodline is too special, and you're also very special because of it, so I'll still keep an eye on you. When you go back, you must pay attention to changes in your condition at any time. If you have another dream, you must notify us immediately. It's best to record the things in the dream in detail."

"That sounds like a professional." Hesperiana muttered, and then her eyes started to roll around: she didn't get many chances to come here, so of course she had to take a good look at where Vivian lived on weekdays. For a "little bat spirit" split from Vivian, this moment felt like a pilgrimage.

But just as Hesperiana was looking around, a small figure suddenly crawled out from the corner, making her dumbfounded.

It was dusk, and the little weakling, having rested enough, crawled out of the mouse hole and started moving along the wall like she had set an alarm clock. She first did a set of full-body exercises, waving her arms and legs, and then staggered towards Hao Ren, firing a shadow bolt from afar:

"biubiubiu! Scare—"

"What's going on?!" Hesperiana jumped up after a brief daze, a pair of bat wings faintly visible on her back. "How... how does this creature look so much like Master Vivian?!"

At this time, the little weakling also noticed the stranger in the living room—although it was not certain whether she had the ability to recognize people, but let's assume so—the little one immediately "scared" and flew into the air, showing an extremely vigilant look, and then waved her arms and legs at Hesperiana: "Hiss ha—"

Hesperiana was startled by this sudden "attack" and subconsciously reached out and pushed it away: "What the hell..."

The little weakling let out a short cry of "Wah" and then drew a black arc across most of the living room, falling into Izhaks' large teacup on the coffee table with a crash.

Izhaks was reading the newspaper and looked up when he heard the noise, then looked at Hao Ren: "Is this a new flavor?"

Hao Ren: "..."

"This is also... a descendant?" Hesperiana seemed to have woken up at this time—or rather, calmed down. She stared at the little weakling on the coffee table, who was climbing out of the teacup with both hands and feet. The latter had two tea leaves on her head and was steaming all over, but still full of energy, raising her hand and firing a series of shadow bolts at Izhaks: "biubiubiu, puff puff..."

The greatest effect of these shadow bolts was to burn a few small holes in the newspaper in Izhaks' hand.

The little weakling was still happily acting as an imaginary Destroyer King today, but she couldn't destroy anything.

Hesperiana's eyes widened. She didn't know what formula she was running in her head, and she pointed back and forth between Hao Ren and Vivian like she had seen a ghost: "You two actually both have..."

Before the little bat spirit could finish speaking, Vivian casually conjured an dazzling ball of lightning in her hand and tossed it up and down: "If I hit you with this, you might be stupid for half a year—go ahead and talk nonsense."

Hesperiana shuddered from the lightning ball. She had been "taken care of" by this thing since she was a child. It was no exaggeration to say that Vivian had raised the little bat spirit with a handful of shit, a handful of pee, and a handful of lightning balls... well, not for many years, but Hesperiana was definitely no stranger to this thing, so she immediately swallowed the rest of her words: "Uh, ahem... then who is she?"

"Remember the evil thought entity Vivian?" Hao Ren reminded. "Those 'evil spirits' without sanity."

Hesperiana showed an incredulous expression: "You mean this..."

"This is also," Hao Ren pointed to the little weakling jumping around on the coffee table not far away. "She was split off when Vivian was sleeping once. I don't know why she turned into this, but it's certain that she's not a 'bloodline descendant' like you, but an 'evil thought entity' condensed from negative energy."

Hesperiana saw Vivian and the others around her nodding, and finally believed it. Then, curiously, she came to the little weakling and watched her baring her teeth and claws to demonstrate against her: "But she looks... so cute, not threatening at all."

"Everything is cute when it's small," Vivian waved her hand. "You were pretty cute when you were a bat."

The little weakling was oblivious to these conversations focused on her, and was just running around by herself to vent her excess energy. But as she ran, she suddenly stopped, and even showed a moment of unusual silence.

She tilted her head, as if listening to some voice from afar, and even a faint, almost imperceptible light gradually appeared on her body.

Hao Ren thought he was seeing things, but when he looked closely, the crazy little thing was actually standing still and shining. But just as he wanted to go forward to check, the light on the little weakling's body suddenly disappeared, and the previous moment of silence disappeared like an illusion. The little thing shook her head, opened her mouth wide, and began to shout randomly.

Lily had sharp eyes and saw the previous scene: "What was that just now?"

"Who knows," Vivian said casually. "Her activities are always erratic. Maybe she just suddenly went stupid."

Hao Ren shook his head, but in his heart, he didn't put this matter behind him as lightly as Vivian did.

He wouldn't be fooled by the little weakling's appearance: an evil thought entity was an evil thought entity. No matter how useless this little thing was, it was still the "negative residue" discharged from Vivian's soul. There must be a reason why this evil thought entity suddenly changed.

He decided to strengthen the supervision of the little weakling in the near future, and if there were any bigger situations, he would consult with Raven 12345.
