What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter Thirty-Third

Xiang Kun lay down to sleep at 8:07 pm on August 5th. According to previous statistics, he probably woke up around 9:00 pm on August 6th.

But when he opened his eyes and picked up his phone to look at the timer he pressed before going to bed, he was stunned:

32:15:34.

This time he slept for 32 hours? !

Looking at the date and time displayed on the phone, it was already 4 o'clock in the morning on August 7th.

This is not quite right...

Xiang Kun frowned, then closed his eyes to feel the changes in his body after drinking blood this time.

Compared with the body feeling after drinking blood, falling asleep, and waking up the previous few times, the changes this time seem to be much smaller.

Of course, he can still clearly feel that his muscles are stronger, and his sensory abilities such as smell, hearing, and vision have also been enhanced to a certain extent, but compared to the previous few times, especially the last time he woke up, the whole world There seems to be a big gap in the intuitive impact that seems to be different.

In other words, the speed of mutation or evolution has slowed down?

Does this have anything to do with my longer sleep time?

Or is it from not eating enough?

After all, he still felt hungry after drinking 170ml of rabbit blood.

Moreover, after drinking blood this time, the drowsiness that surged up was not as strong as the previous few times.

Compared with the previous few times, the amount of blood he drank didn't change much. The previous time, the 165ml was actually a little less.

That is to say, it should be that his need for blood has increased?

But to verify this point, he had to wait until the next time he drank blood—he didn't intend to break his own blood-drinking rule right now.

Glancing at the meat rabbit that was still kept at the door of the bathroom, Xiang Kun thought that when he drank blood next time, he would have to take the blood of two rabbits.

Next is the standard procedure after each awakening, weighing, measuring circumference, taking photos, testing the increase in vision, hearing, and smell, the time of holding breath, the time of recovery after trauma, and body temperature and other data.

After no longer carrying out extreme weight strength training, and switching to endurance and agility training, Xiang Kun's muscle circumference has improved very little, but his weight still increases steadily every time he drinks blood. Now his The weight has come to 94KG.

Xiang Kun, who is less than 1.8 meters tall, looks muscular if he wears a tank top and shorts, or more slim-fitting clothes, especially the two chest muscles and wide back are very obvious, but no one would think that he would have It weighs almost 190 catties.

Xiang Kun felt that after he changed his training method, the growth rate of muscle size decreased, but the muscle quality should have improved a lot. If he and other adult males were to be weighed with the same volume of muscle, his muscle would probably be a lot heavier.

In addition, the healing speed of the knife wound is 12 minutes and 23 seconds, which is not much improved compared to the previous 13 minutes.

The body temperature also continued to drop from 28°C to 27.6°C. From this, it can be seen that the body temperature should not drop all at once, but from the first time drinking blood, and drop one after another.

After finishing the statistics, Xiang Kun checked his phone, and there were several new messages on WeChat.

A tenant sent it to him. The house had been cleaned up on August 6. When he is free, he will go to check and refund the deposit.

His mother sent him a message, just to ask him how his work was and how he was doing, but because he had sent a WeChat report before he fell asleep, his mother didn't call him directly because he didn't receive a reply.

And Tang Baona's, who just sent a probing emoji.

Naturally, it is not easy to reply to them now, it is almost dawn, so why not find a time to reply in the morning.

After thinking for a while, Xiang Kun began to make a training plan for the next five-day cycle.

Go check out the house today.

Then tidy up and clean up, and it's almost ready to move.

For the house here, he and the landlord had agreed a long time ago that the rent for this month has already been paid, so the landlord has a buffer period to find a new tenant, and there is no problem with checking out.

After moving to his own house, he has more privacy, and many trainings can be done at home.

And even though it is developing very fast there now, and there are many residents, it is easier to find a place with fewer people than the place where you live now, and do some more "private" training.

He remembered that there was a hill three or four kilometers away from the community, and there was a big lake. A developer had acquired a piece of land there, and wanted to develop a high-end villa area. "with water", but then I don't know why the construction has not started for a long time.

But after moving, there was another problem that Xiang Kun had to consider.

That is money.

On July 11th, the company closed down, and he became unemployed. When the results of several years of hard work came to nothing, he was depressed and aggrieved. It was the first time he went to borrow alcohol alone for the first time after he hadn’t touched alcohol for many years. worry.

But at that time, he still had some savings on his card, and he didn’t think he couldn’t find a job—with his technical ability, not to mention how valued he was by others and hired with a high salary, it was no problem to find a job that could gain a foothold in this city .

Originally, Xiang Kun's ideal of working in the past few years was to help the company go public, and then get the equity, the assets skyrocketed, and even realize financial freedom ahead of schedule. Live in a house in the school district, drive a luxury car, marry a beautiful, educated wife, have a few children, bring your parents here and buy a house for them to live in...

But now, everything is different.

After the body mutated, what Xiang Kun considered at the very beginning was the issue of life and death, whether the "disease" on his body could be cured, and whether he would die.

But now, almost a month later, Xiang Kun, who has drunk blood five times and mutated six times, including the first time he drank chicken blood, has become more and more afraid of death and body mutation. Small, replaced by growing curiosity and excitement.

Undoubtedly, with repeated mutations, his body has gradually surpassed the limits of ordinary humans, whether it is sensory abilities or other bodily functions.

He really wants to know, to what extent can his mutation or evolution reach?

Whether it is a vampire or any other existence, at least he can clearly feel that his direction of change is "becoming stronger".

Let him look for a job now. Firstly, some of his characteristics are really not suitable for long-term contact with people, and it is easy to reveal his secrets. Secondly, he really can’t bring up the nature to work and earn money. All his energy is put on The "training" of your own body variation and how to guide the variation.

But to live in the city, money is definitely needed. Even if he no longer has the pressure to eat, the monthly fixed water, electricity, property, mobile phone, internet, and miscellaneous expenses cannot be saved. It is necessary to be prepared for the fixed consumption of meat rabbits that can be predicted to increase steadily, as well as the monthly mortgage repayments that are still being paid.
