Chapter 1087 - 431: Jimmy’s Mutation
Jimmy’s body continuously flickered with red light, and Zhang Beixing looked at him like a dimming lantern running low on power.
The two-hundred-year-old vampire girl, who still looked like a young maiden, seemed to have predicted Jimmy’s situation in advance.
Her bright blue eyes were fixed avidly on Jimmy, occasionally nodding lightly, as if appreciating something.
Zhang Beixing shook his head, unable to see anything appealing about Jimmy.
However, he had to admit that the girl had a knack; Jimmy’s status was intriguing during his transformation, like a giant insect about to break free from its cocoon.
After a while, the red light on Jimmy intensified, and his face no longer looked twisted; it even seemed rather handsome.
His body, no longer frail, had become robust and muscular, well-defined.
The flickering red light peaked in an instant, then suddenly vanished.
Under the gaze of Zhang Beixing and the girl, Jimmy abruptly opened his eyes, where red light still shone.
But compared to the previous scarlet and violent light, this red was deeper, with a hint of gold, subtle yet perceivable to Zhang Beixing; it marked a distinct new level.
An intense energy burst from Jimmy, swirling dust and leaves on the ground, expanding rapidly outward. Zhang Beixing squinted slightly and waved a hand.
The dust and leaves were blocked away.
When the smoke cleared, Zhang Beixing saw Jimmy suspended in the air, with bat-like skeletal wings unfolded behind him.
Seeing Jimmy’s drastic transformation, Zhang Beixing was somewhat astonished.
His peripheral vision caught the young girl beside him.
From her raised lips and the look in her eyes, Zhang Beixing could tell she had expected all this.
The next moment, a pair of skeletal wings similar to Jimmy’s appeared behind the girl.
However, the girl’s pair was noticeably more vibrant red, with more sharp bone spikes.
The moment the girl ascended, Jimmy seemed affected by some force.
His previously steady floating body wobbled, almost plummeting from the air.
It was only when the girl gently pointed her delicate hand that Jimmy barely stabilized.
"Alright, you’ve just purified your bloodline, and are not yet accustomed."
"Once stabilized, you’ll be able to resist the bloodline’s suppression."
The girl’s tender voice echoed.
For some reason, Jimmy seemed unable to resist the girl’s voice, and obediently descended from the sky.
Standing before the girl, he appeared somewhat docile and obedient.
This scene left Zhang Beixing marveling.
Never expected such magical vampire bloodline.
A drop of blood not only allowed Jimmy to transform, but also made him quite obedient.
What Zhang Beixing didn’t know was that the miraculous effect was entirely due to the thin vampire noble bloodline within Jimmy.
Although Jimmy was the product of a vampire and a human, his transformation led to such dramatic change.
If a child were born of two vampires, they would have been in this state from birth.
Jimmy’s obedience lasted but a moment, then he suddenly seemed to realize, looking around in confusion.
As though all that he did earlier was not of his own consciousness.
Jimmy gazed in disbelief at his strong arm, then quickly turned around to see his still unfolded skeletal wings.
Jimmy was startled by his own transformation.
"What... what is this?"
"How can this be?"
Faced with Jimmy’s fright, Zhang Beixing frowned, unsure how or whether he should explain.
After all, Jimmy now looked like a helpless child, coupled with his past experiences, it was hard to fault him further.
Fortunately, the girl beside was well-prepared.
She directly reached out, lightly touching Jimmy’s forehead with her fingertip.
Jimmy, suddenly touched, stood petrified as if struck by lightning.
Zhang Beixing asked, frowning.
"What’s happening to him?"
Responding to Zhang Beixing’s inquiry, the girl waved her hand carelessly.
"Don’t worry, just helping him recall some past events."
Following the girl’s words, Jimmy inexplicably began to shed tears, uncontrollable, forming a stream.
It seemed as though he was experiencing something excruciatingly painful within his mind.
After a long while, Jimmy finally regained his senses, speaking hesitantly.
"Those... was that monster really me?"
"How did I kill so many people?"
"Why is that devil there too?"
Evidently, this sudden memory surfacing made Jimmy’s fragile psyche somewhat unable to cope.
Only then did Zhang Beixing understand why Jimmy, despite possessing formidable strength, was still abused by Peter.
Turns out Jimmy was completely unaware during the day that he would transform into a monster at night.
This also explained why the peculiar monster was unusually violent when seeing Peter.
At that moment, Jimmy, blankly looking around, suddenly noticed Zhang Beixing standing beside the girl.
