[Zhongyingmei] Vampires don't want to inherit
Chapter 53 Renault doesn't want to carry on the family
"You have a good rest at home. It's windy at night, and you're already uncomfortable." Helen Dobbs took a shotgun and prepared to go to the woods to find Renault. Mary also changed into a thick coat and prepared to go with her. Hailang was very worried.
"I can't rest well at home alone. If I go with you, the speed of two people will be faster."
Hai Lang knew how stubborn Mary was, so he could only find his own winter hat and scarf to surround Mary tightly, and the two set out together to find the disobedient child.
Renault didn't know that his sneaking out had been discovered by the Dobbs couple, and they were happily looking for prey in the woods.As soon as he entered the forest, he found a lot of scents belonging to prey, which meant that he would have a good meal today.
There are many creatures on the island that Lei Nuo has never seen before. They are small but very alert. After sensing Lei Nuo's breath, they quickly ran away.That is the ability to sense danger that belongs to small animals.
Renault didn't forcefully chase those running away animals, he had a lot of time to choose the food he was satisfied with.He casually picked up a panicking snake from the ground. This snake was about half a meter long, with a cold body and very repetitive patterns on its body.Seasoned hunters know that the more colorful and beautiful the snake, the more poisonous it is.But when the snake was picked up by Lei Nuo, it was as stiff as a stick, even though Lei Nuo fiddled with it at will, it did not dare to move.
Lei Nuo went deeper and deeper into the forest, and the moonlight was completely covered by the dense branches. If it weren't for Lei Nuo's natural vision at night, he might not be able to see the road clearly.The types of animals in the forest are getting bigger and bigger, and the roads are getting more and more difficult.
In the end, Reynolds chose a sloth lying motionless on a tree. Maybe it wasn't because it didn't dare to move, but it was too lazy to move at first. die.
This tree is very tall, and it is very difficult for terrestrial creatures to climb the tree, but this is nothing to Lei Nuo.He spread his wings and took to the air, ripping the sloth from the tree in one blow.
As Raynor's canines dug into the sloth's body, the sloth struggled violently, a struggle that wasn't worth mentioning to Raynor.The gurgling blood flowed into Lei Nuo's body, and Lei Nuo felt that he was alive. It didn't taste good, but it was better than nothing.
Dobbs and his wife walked into the woods with each other's support. They were lucky enough to find Lei Nuo's footprints.Walking forward along the footprints, I saw Lei Nuo's figure in the distance. He was indulging in the hard-won food.Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, sucking the poor sloth's blood like a demon.
Hai Lang unconsciously grabbed Mary's hand and pulled her behind him.Panic filled his heart. He thought he had saved a poor child, but he didn't expect to save a demon.
Mary also held Hailang's hand, but her eyes were full of surprise and firmness besides a little fear.
When Raynor dropped the sloth, the sloth was dying.He heard the rustling and the smell of delicious human blood, and he knew who it was.He was a little afraid to look up at the Dobbs couple, he knew that the appearance of his blood sucking must be seen by the two of them.
Mary Dobbs is a devout Christian, she has great reverence for God.Maybe he could see the panic and hatred in Mrs. Dobbs' eyes when he raised his head, and he was driven away from this warm island by them.
Renault was a little frustrated. He was still too careless. If he had hypnotized the Dobbs couple to put them to sleep, he might have been able to hide it for a while.It was too late to say anything now, he finally raised his head to face the Dobbs couple, he could not escape a trial no matter what.
From Mary's point of view, Reynolds lowered his head and didn't dare to look at them. He kept holding the corners of his clothes, looking extremely pitiful and helpless. At the same time, he was intoxicated like the devil who lured innocent human beings into hell described in the Bible.
Demons are evil and hateful, but Mary doesn't think Raynor is a bad boy.She didn't believe that the child who secretly helped her at night had any bad intentions.She used to find that every morning when she woke up, the rest of the previous day's work was done.She thought it was her husband who felt sorry for her, so she got up to work secretly at night.Now it seems that this child should do it.
Mary broke free from Mr. Dobbs' hand protecting her and walked up to Reno.She could see the regret and panic in Renault's eyes, and Mr. Dobbs followed nervously, still holding the shotgun tightly in his hand.Mrs. Dobbs did not attack or evade, but instead stretched out her hand to cover Renault's head, "Son, I think you have a lot to say to us."
Mrs. Dobbs' actions reassured Renault a lot, but he knew that the most difficult hurdle had not yet been passed.At least now there is still room for buffering, he can no longer hide it.It would be unfair to the Dobbses and themselves to continue to hide.
The three returned to the cabin in silence.Mrs. Dobbs lit a kerosene lamp in the log cabin, which was a rarity.Generally speaking, the Dobbs and his wife are more willing to do things under the moonlight. They like the feeling of enjoying nature freely, and it is time to rest after enjoying the baptism of the moonlight.
The three of them sat across from each other at a small table, and they were silent for a long time. It was Mrs. Dobbs who spoke first, "Son, are you human?"
"...No, I'm...a vampire." Renault's voice was a little hoarse, and he felt that it was particularly difficult for him to speak.
The Dobbses actually saved not only his life, but his heart that was on the verge of collapse.They used kindness and gentleness to heal the trauma Raynor suffered in Gotham little by little, and comforted his helplessness after discovering that the system had disappeared again.
Mary looked at Renault with those lake-green eyes, and this child was just as she imagined, not the most sinful person.He has been hiding his uniqueness. In the impression of the world, vampires live on human blood, but this child has been suppressing himself and has never hurt himself or his husband. From this, it can be seen that this child still retains kindness in his heart .
"It's hard these days. We want to thank you for not hurting us." Mary stroked Renault's hair to comfort him.
"Mrs. Dobbs, I can survive on the blood of animals, and I can protect you...but sometimes I worry that I will get out of control and hurt you." Since Renault's body has become smaller, his body has also become smaller, and the direct consequence is He lost complete control over himself.The dormancy of the system made him even more panicked. Although he didn't usually show it, he was very dependent on the system in many cases.
Lei Nuo didn't know what the system left to replenish energy at the end, so he could only use the moonlight to improve his own strength, hoping it could help.If the system can't get enough power, Renault won't last long.
"Reynolds, do you like life on the island?" Mrs. Dobbs asked seriously.
This made Renault a little bit at a loss. He didn't know what Mrs. Dobbs wanted to express.
"Of course, I like life here very much. It's very peaceful and safe here." Lei Nuo said the truth. Life on the island is very ordinary, and can even be described as boring and boring.It is completely different from the feasting and drunkenness that Reynolds enjoyed in Gotham, here is more warm and peaceful.
Reynolds could feel the love of nature for the people and things on this small island. They opened their hearts to nature, and nature spared no effort to protect them.
"You said before that you have no parents and no relatives. Hailang and I planned to adopt you if you want. I don't know if you want to." Mrs. Dobbs said that the two had discussed before Mr. Dobbs did not stop the decision, but just listened quietly.
Renault was very surprised. He thought that after he revealed his identity, the Dobbs and his wife would be very frightened, even disgusted, and would drive him out. He didn't expect that they would accept him.
"Of course! I would, but why?"
Mrs. Dobbs stroked Renault's hair. She could see Renault's confusion and helplessness, "You are a kind-hearted child. You can't decide your origin and race, but you can choose your own future. We thought about it before. Let you go back to New York and live the life of a normal kid. But now it seems that until you have mastered how to control yourself, you'd better stay in a place that is not so dangerous, neither to you nor to others. place. When you have total control over yourself, you’ll find that the world doesn’t hold you back as much as you think.”
"Accept your powers and master them, helping rather than hurting others."
Renault felt even more at a loss. Mrs. Dobbs was a firm believer in Christianity. Renault thought she would firmly believe that demons and vampires were evil, but now it seemed that Mrs. Dobbs did not think so.
"Reynolds, you remember, the real evil is the heart. The reason why demons are called demons is because they have evil thoughts in their hearts and do bad things. When a person has light and kindness in his heart, then he is not evil Yes. In the eyes of God, all things in the world are equal, and the reason why demons are demons is not that God stipulates that they are born as demons, but that they choose to give up truth, goodness and beauty.”
Mrs. Dobbs looked at Reynolds tenderly, her eyes had the vitality of a young man, "I am not those pedantic nuns, I have my own ideas and understandings."
Renault also looked at Mrs. Dobbs's lake-green eyes for a long time, and suddenly smiled, that smile was like melting ice and snow in the early spring.He seemed to be able to see from this gentle and considerate woman that confident and rebellious girl many years ago. When she was listening to the pastor's sermon, her lake green eyes had a different kind of brilliance.
……
Unlike Mrs. Dobbs' tolerance, Mr. Dobbs was always wary at the beginning, and this guard gradually melted away after nearly three months of living together.
Renault goes deep into the woods to eat alone at regular intervals every week, other than that, he is no different from a normal child.He also hunted a lot of game to bring back to the cabin and store it up for the coming winter, which relieved Mr. Dobbs of the burden.Over time, he also began to regard Renault as his own child.
As long as you pay attention, you can see that Reynolds has been controlling his power and desire, and he has done a good job. He believes that under Mary's teaching, this child will not become a demon.
Reynolds followed Mr. Dobbs, holding a thick log in each hand, as thick as the waist of a grown strong man.If Mr. Dobbs were to move it, he would have to bring a wheelbarrow he built himself, and it would take a day to transport it back.But with Renault's strength, he can easily lift two pieces of wood.If Mr. Dobbs was not afraid, he could even let the two logs float home by themselves.
After autumn, Mr. Dobbs cut down many trees in the forest, but he never told Renault what he was going to do, only said that he would give Renault a surprise.When a small log cabin was built, Reynolds thought that Mr. Dobbs had built a new bedroom for himself, but when Mrs. Dobbs and Mr. Reynolds brought him into the log cabin together, he realized that he was so wrong. It wasn't a new bedroom at all, but a humble tool room.
"Although we don't have a car, I think it's necessary to give you a garage. Every responsible man grows up in a garage." Mr. Dobbs put his hand on Renault's shoulder, letting He looked at the things in the "garage", which contained small tables, large and small stones and minerals, and various tools, "We know that you have been deliberately avoiding using your special power, but this is wrong."
"Keep holding back power and never release it, and you'll never learn to control them. You're a smart kid, no matter how many whims you have, you can make them happen in this garage... well, we'll call this a garage Bar."
"When I was young, I liked to stay in the garage, knocking and tearing things down. Although I can't provide you with materials and tools that you only have in the city, I still hope that you can have as much fun as possible here." Booth took a look at the "garage" that he spent half a month building. "There is already a preliminary space here, but we still lack a cellar. Digging a cellar is still too tiring for a person my age. Maybe you would like to dig one out yourself?"
Renault took the shovel handed over by Mr. Dobbs, feeling warm in his heart, and the smile on his face grew bigger and bigger.He knew what he meant, which meant that Mr. Dobbs had let down his guard and vigilance completely, and admitted that he was a part of the Dobbs family.
Every young man should have his own garage.Renault has heard this sentence before. Whether it is the Wayne family or the Copperpot family, in addition to the garage where many luxury cars are placed, there is also a small garage that stores all the memories of their teenage years.
Now, Renault also has a garage that belongs to him. Although it is simple and dilapidated, and there are few things in it, it can make Renault feel high for a long time. For the first time, he has found a foothold in this world.
"Okay, Renault, it's your job after that. I'm going to replenish supplies in a few days, maybe you'd like to go with me."
"Of course!"
……
The work of digging the cellar was not going very well, and Renault never thought that he would be stuck in the problem of excavation.He wanted to use his ability to forcibly punch a hole, but his strength was rebounded by unknown things, almost destroying the crumbling cabin.He could only dig with a shovel, shovel by shovel. It was okay at first, and a hole about one and a half meters deep was dug.When he dug down again, the shovel seemed to hit something hard, maybe minerals or hard stones.
This is not a big problem, just dig it from other sides.But Raynor found that the more force he used, the same force would be reflected from the stone.The shovel flew out of his hand again and again. If it wasn't for Renault's foresight to wrap the shovel with strength, it is unknown how many times the poor shovel has broken.
Renault felt that this kind of stone was worth studying, provided that he could dig it out of the ground.Renault began to stay in the cabin for a long time to study the stones, which made Mrs. Dobbs very worried about Renault's state, and often came to see what Renault was doing.Every time I see Renault digging a cellar with sweat profusely, I feel distressed.
"The cellar is never necessary, it's just a form, don't make yourself too tired, rest for a while."
"Okay, Aunt Mary, but I think this matter is very meaningful. You know, I have never done this before. I want to dig out the cellar myself." Reynolds got up and gave Mary a hug to reassure her.
Mrs. Dobbs could only look at Renault with helpless and tolerant eyes. This child was just like she knew. Although there was non-human blood in his blood, he had a heart of gold, firm and steady.
Renault's schedule is opposite to that of the Dobbs couple. In order not to affect Hailang and Mary's rest, he took the initiative to move his bed to this cabin.
After nearly three months of moonlight bathing, the system started up again that night.
"Ding—the system energy has been replenished. Welcome back, host. The system has detected the host's mental fluctuations, and the system data is being updated...""
"Ding, the system is connecting to the network... The network connection failed... Please explore the host by yourself."
"Ding, the aspiration system is activated, please host to choose an aspiration... It's... It's... The host's ambition is random, random... random success, the host's current ambition—lucky: the mansion king..."
Renault originally smiled and waited for the system to start automatically. After the system network connection failed and another random ambition, the expression on his face became dull, "Wait..."
"Host? Is there anything I can do to help you?" The system asked politely. It couldn't understand why Lei Nuo's mood suddenly fell from joy to speechlessness.
"Ambition... can I choose it myself?" Renault was a little helpless. He could be said to have been cheated by the system in Gotham, and the "evil" attribute of deviant behavior affected his behavior and mental state.
"The host can switch between the three ambitions at will, but according to your current situation, the mansion king is your best choice."
"What are the remaining three ambitions?" Renault asked suspiciously, he always felt that the system was ready to trick him again at any time.
"Luck: King of Mansions, Prestige: Head of the pack, Family: Prominent family background, and an aspiration you can choose after you complete the first three aspirations."
After analyzing it himself, Renault had to admit that the system was correct. It was impossible for him to join any clubs on this small island, nor could he form a family with anyone.Relatively speaking, the mansion king is still operable.
He opened his dream interface and took a look, and found that all he had now was a dilapidated log cabin, worth $100, which can be said to be very shabby.If he wants to build him up further, he has to change the walls of the cabin, the floor, build a second floor, add all sorts of useful things.In this way, it looks no different from building a house from scratch. He is worse than when he first arrived in Gotham, and he can't buy materials even if he has money.
Fortunately, the things in his carry-on list are still there. When he was in Gotham, he intentionally or unintentionally put a lot of things in his carry-on list that he thought were valuable, such as the easel he brought from the game world, the picture he never slept on. The old coffin, the various trophies he harvested in Gotham, the Mad Hatter's brain wave control device and the like.
Renault tentatively took out the easel and placed it in the log cabin, and the value of the house in the ideal interface increased by 50 US dollars.Renault thought for a while and put the easel in the carry-on list. It's not easy for him to explain the origin of these things to Uncle and Aunt Dobbs. He might as well go to the town with Uncle Dobbs to buy them in a few days and then take them out together.
"Can't the computer be used now?" Renault felt a little regretful. If the computer could be used, he would be much more relaxed.
"The computer can be used, but the data stored in the computer may not be suitable for this world. At present, it is impossible to connect to the external network of this world. If you have a chance, please make sure to connect to the network."
Renault nodded silently, agreeing to the system's arrangement.
In the next few days, Renault remodeled the brain wave control device of the Mad Hatter and a bunch of products with strange functions, remodeled the computer brought by the game world, covered a corner of the cabin, and turned it into a his laboratory.After computer testing day and night, I finally found the weakness of the strange rock, or to be more precise, it was an extremely rare metal.
This kind of metal is hard, has strong defensive power, and has excellent ductility. It is an excellent raw material for both equipment and weapons.The metal absorbs power and then releases it. The only weakness is that sound waves can passivate the metal.No one would use sound waves in normal battles, so it could be said that this metal could be used in most battles.
This kind of metal is hidden under the surface of this small island. According to the preliminary calculation of the system, 60% of the bottom of the small island is covered with this kind of metal, and the place where the power fluctuates the most is in the woods where Renault goes every week. In a few hundred years the island will be covered with this metal.
Reynolds made a small sonic device, which easily cut off a piece of metal. When he looked at it under the moonlight, his heart was full of excitement. If he had armor made of this metal when he was in Gotham, Batman He will definitely be beaten to the ground.
Suddenly thinking of Batman, Renault felt a little lost, "System, you said before that you took away my emotions and advanced skills?"
"Yes, precious emotion provides a lot of energy. From your interpersonal information, it can be seen that your entire relationship with Batman has been zeroed out."
Renault put the small piece of metal on the table, subconsciously touched the position of the heart with his right hand, and felt a little dull, perhaps because he was affected by the special sound wave.
The author has something to say:
*The Dobbs couple are good people!They played the role of pulling Renault back on track.
*The correct answer is that the island has special metals...from the manga "The Devil in a Bottle".I found that yours is much more powerful than mine (fear of eating hands
"I can't rest well at home alone. If I go with you, the speed of two people will be faster."
Hai Lang knew how stubborn Mary was, so he could only find his own winter hat and scarf to surround Mary tightly, and the two set out together to find the disobedient child.

The work of digging the cellar was not going very well, and Renault never thought that he would be stuck in the problem of excavation.He wanted to use his ability to forcibly punch a hole, but his strength was rebounded by unknown things, almost destroying the crumbling cabin.He could only dig with a shovel, shovel by shovel. It was okay at first, and a hole about one and a half meters deep was dug.When he dug down again, the shovel seemed to hit something hard, maybe minerals or hard stones.
This is not a big problem, just dig it from other sides.But Raynor found that the more force he used, the same force would be reflected from the stone.The shovel flew out of his hand again and again. If it wasn't for Renault's foresight to wrap the shovel with strength, it is unknown how many times the poor shovel has broken.
Renault felt that this kind of stone was worth studying, provided that he could dig it out of the ground.Renault began to stay in the cabin for a long time to study the stones, which made Mrs. Dobbs very worried about Renault's state, and often came to see what Renault was doing.Every time I see Renault digging a cellar with sweat profusely, I feel distressed.
"The cellar is never necessary, it's just a form, don't make yourself too tired, rest for a while."
"Okay, Aunt Mary, but I think this matter is very meaningful. You know, I have never done this before. I want to dig out the cellar myself." Reynolds got up and gave Mary a hug to reassure her.
Mrs. Dobbs could only look at Renault with helpless and tolerant eyes. This child was just like she knew. Although there was non-human blood in his blood, he had a heart of gold, firm and steady.
Renault's schedule is opposite to that of the Dobbs couple. In order not to affect Hailang and Mary's rest, he took the initiative to move his bed to this cabin.
After nearly three months of moonlight bathing, the system started up again that night.
"Ding—the system energy has been replenished. Welcome back, host. The system has detected the host's mental fluctuations, and the system data is being updated...""
"Ding, the system is connecting to the network... The network connection failed... Please explore the host by yourself."
"Ding, the aspiration system is activated, please host to choose an aspiration... It's... It's... The host's ambition is random, random... random success, the host's current ambition—lucky: the mansion king..."
Renault originally smiled and waited for the system to start automatically. After the system network connection failed and another random ambition, the expression on his face became dull, "Wait..."
"Host? Is there anything I can do to help you?" The system asked politely. It couldn't understand why Lei Nuo's mood suddenly fell from joy to speechlessness.
"Ambition... can I choose it myself?" Renault was a little helpless. He could be said to have been cheated by the system in Gotham, and the "evil" attribute of deviant behavior affected his behavior and mental state.
"The host can switch between the three ambitions at will, but according to your current situation, the mansion king is your best choice."
"What are the remaining three ambitions?" Renault asked suspiciously, he always felt that the system was ready to trick him again at any time.
"Luck: King of Mansions, Prestige: Head of the pack, Family: Prominent family background, and an aspiration you can choose after you complete the first three aspirations."
After analyzing it himself, Renault had to admit that the system was correct. It was impossible for him to join any clubs on this small island, nor could he form a family with anyone.Relatively speaking, the mansion king is still operable.
He opened his dream interface and took a look, and found that all he had now was a dilapidated log cabin, worth $100, which can be said to be very shabby.If he wants to build him up further, he has to change the walls of the cabin, the floor, build a second floor, add all sorts of useful things.In this way, it looks no different from building a house from scratch. He is worse than when he first arrived in Gotham, and he can't buy materials even if he has money.
Fortunately, the things in his carry-on list are still there. When he was in Gotham, he intentionally or unintentionally put a lot of things in his carry-on list that he thought were valuable, such as the easel he brought from the game world, the picture he never slept on. The old coffin, the various trophies he harvested in Gotham, the Mad Hatter's brain wave control device and the like.
Renault tentatively took out the easel and placed it in the log cabin, and the value of the house in the ideal interface increased by 50 US dollars.Renault thought for a while and put the easel in the carry-on list. It's not easy for him to explain the origin of these things to Uncle and Aunt Dobbs. He might as well go to the town with Uncle Dobbs to buy them in a few days and then take them out together.
"Can't the computer be used now?" Renault felt a little regretful. If the computer could be used, he would be much more relaxed.
"The computer can be used, but the data stored in the computer may not be suitable for this world. At present, it is impossible to connect to the external network of this world. If you have a chance, please make sure to connect to the network."
Renault nodded silently, agreeing to the system's arrangement.
In the next few days, Renault remodeled the brain wave control device of the Mad Hatter and a bunch of products with strange functions, remodeled the computer brought by the game world, covered a corner of the cabin, and turned it into a his laboratory.After computer testing day and night, I finally found the weakness of the strange rock, or to be more precise, it was an extremely rare metal.
This kind of metal is hard, has strong defensive power, and has excellent ductility. It is an excellent raw material for both equipment and weapons.The metal absorbs power and then releases it. The only weakness is that sound waves can passivate the metal.No one would use sound waves in normal battles, so it could be said that this metal could be used in most battles.
This kind of metal is hidden under the surface of this small island. According to the preliminary calculation of the system, 60% of the bottom of the small island is covered with this kind of metal, and the place where the power fluctuates the most is in the woods where Renault goes every week. In a few hundred years the island will be covered with this metal.
Reynolds made a small sonic device, which easily cut off a piece of metal. When he looked at it under the moonlight, his heart was full of excitement. If he had armor made of this metal when he was in Gotham, Batman He will definitely be beaten to the ground.
Suddenly thinking of Batman, Renault felt a little lost, "System, you said before that you took away my emotions and advanced skills?"
"Yes, precious emotion provides a lot of energy. From your interpersonal information, it can be seen that your entire relationship with Batman has been zeroed out."
Renault put the small piece of metal on the table, subconsciously touched the position of the heart with his right hand, and felt a little dull, perhaps because he was affected by the special sound wave.
The author has something to say:
*The Dobbs couple are good people!They played the role of pulling Renault back on track.
*The correct answer is that the island has special metals...from the manga "The Devil in a Bottle".I found that yours is much more powerful than mine (fear of eating hands
