What It’s Like Being a Vampire - Chapter 33

Xiang Kun slept at 8:07 PM on the 5th of August. Based on the estimates he had made for the past few times, he should wake up at 9 PM on the 6th of August.

However, when he woke up and looked at the timer on his phone, he was stunned.

32:15:34.

He had slept for 32 hours?

Then he looked at the date and time on his cell phone and realized it was 4 AM on the 7th of August.

This was strange…

Xiang Kun frowned and closed his eyes to sense the changes in his body after the consumption of blood.

Compared to the previous times, the changes seemed to be very small.

Of course, he could clearly feel that his muscles had more strength. His vision, sense of smell, and hearing had also improved. However, compared to the past few times, especially the previous time, where he felt the extreme impact, it was relatively different this time.

Did this mean that the changes to his body had slowed down?

Was this related to the increase in his duration of sleep?

Or was it because he had not drunk enough blood?

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

Moreover, the sleepiness he experienced after drinking blood was not as strong as the past few times.

In fact, the amount of blood he had consumed had not really changed. In fact, last time, he had only drunk 165ml, which was less than 170ml.

Did this mean that his demand for blood had increased?

However, in order to prove this, he would have to wait for the next time. He did not want to destroy his blood-drinking cycle now.

He took a glance at the rabbit in front of the toilet and thought that he would probably need two rabbits for the next time.

Then he proceeded with the standard procedures after he woke up. He recorded his weight, the measurements of his body, photographs of his body, the improvement in his vision, sense of smell and hearing, his lung capacity, time taken for his injuries to heal, and his body temperature.

After he stopped strength training and directed his attention to agility and endurance, the changes in Xiang Kun’s muscles had decreased, but his body weight was increasing steadily every time he drank blood. Now his weight was already 94kg.

Although Xiang Kun, who was less than 1.8 meters in height, looked relatively buff if he wore singlets and shorts or tight-fitting shirts, especially since his chest muscles and back muscles were very obvious, nobody would expect him to be nearly 95kg.

Xiang Kun realized that after he changed his training method, the speed of the build up of his muscles had decreased, but the density of his muscles had increased. If he weighed himself and other men with the same build as him, Xiang Kun’s muscles would probably be much heavier.

Apart from that, the speed of self-healing was 12 minutes 23 seconds. It was not a huge improvement from the 13 minutes he had recorded the previous time.

His body temperature had dropped from 28 degrees Celsius to 27.6 degrees Celsius. This showed that his body temperature had not dropped in one shot. Instead, it had dropped gradually after every time he drank blood.

After he recorded this data down, Xiang Kun took a look at his cell phone and saw a few messages.

Xiang Kun’s tenant had sent him a message to tell Xiang Kun that he had cleared his house on the 6th of August. He was waiting for Xiang Kun to check and return the deposit.

Xiang Kun’s mother had also sent him a message and asked him how work was and how he was in general. Thankfully, Xiang Kun had scheduled a message before falling asleep, so his mother had not called him immediately after not receiving a reply.

Tang Baona had also sent him a message, but it was only a sticker.

It was not the correct time to reply to them now, as it was near dawn. He thought he should reply to them in the morning.

After thinking about it, Xiang Kun began to make his training plans for the next five days.

He would go and look at the apartment, clean it up, and move in.

He had already told his landlord about his current room. He had already paid the rental fees for the month and allowed the landlord to have some time to look for new tenants. There should not be any problems with leaving the room.

After he moved to his own apartment, he would have more personal space and could do most of the training at home.

Moreover, although the area was developing fast and there were also many residents, compared to where he was living right now, he could find areas with fewer people for him to do his training in “private”.

He remembered that within three to four kilometers from the area, there was a small mountain and a relatively big lake. Initially, there was a plot of land that was bidded by a developer to build a high-class resort. After all, it was beside mountains and a lake. However, the construction work did not take place.

However, after moving house, Xiang Kun had to consider another problem.

Money.

When his company went bankrupt on the 11th of July, he became unemployed. When the hard work he had put in for years went to waste, he became depressed. He had gone out to drink even though he was someone who had not touched alcohol in years.

However, back then, he still had some savings in his bank account and did not think that he would remain jobless. After all, with his technical expertise, even if he would not get a high salary job, he should be able to find a job to earn a living.

Initially, Xiang Kun’s aspirations were to help his company become listed, obtain the stocks, and allow the assets to rise, so that he could obtain his financial freedom earlier. Buy a house, a branded car, marry a wife who was educated and beautiful, give birth to a few children before buying another house for his parents to live together with him…

However, everything had changed.

After his body changed, Xiang Kun’s first thought was regarding survival. He wondered if his “illness” could be cured and whether he would die.

However, after almost a month, he had drunk blood five times and undergone six more rounds of changes in his body. His fear of death and the changes in his body had decreased. In replacement, he was becoming more curious and excited.

Without a doubt, as his body kept changing, he was closer and closer to surpassing the limits of an ordinary human, be it his sensory abilities or other bodily functions.

He really wanted to know what the limit of the changes in his body was.

Be it a vampire or other creatures, at least he could feel that he was changing to become “more powerful”.

If he went to look for a job now, he would not be suited for long-term interaction with others, as he might easily expose himself. Moreover, he could no longer find the motivation to work and earn money. He had diverted all his attention to the changes in his body and the “training”.

However, in order to live in the city, he would definitely need money. Even though he did not need to eat now, he would still have to pay the water and electric bills, cell phone bills, internet bills, and miscellaneous bills. Moreover, he would probably need to drink more rabbit blood to sustain himself. He also had to pay for the apartment loan.
