The Malevolence in the lunchbox was still struggling, probably jumping up and down. Anyway, the lunchbox made a lot of noise on the coffee table. Lil Pea, who was watching from the side, suddenly got excited and jumped up and down with the lunchbox.
She probably thought that this was her new toy after the MDT.
Rollie, on the other hand, was squatting by the coffee table. She still insisted that she had caught a mouse, and that the mouse in the lunchbox was her trophy. She did not even blink to prevent her trophy from running away.
The rest of them had no time to play with the cat. They were discussing the sudden split of Vivian.
According to the MDT's estimation of the time of birth of the Malevolence, the most likely explanation was that Vivian had just split. But this split was completely different from what Hao Ren had been investigating. Not to mention that it was a palm-sized noob that could not even beat Rollie and Lil Pea, Vivian herself did not seem to be affected at all.
"Are you sure this is Vivian's recent split?" Hao Ren was still a little skeptical. He glanced at the enamel lunchbox on the coffee table and poked the MDT. "Vivian has been with us for the past two days."
The MDT shook its body. "It corresponds to the time. That's the only explanation."
Vivian's brows knit together slightly. Self-splitting had been a long-standing concern of hers. She had always been worried that one day she would lose control of her power and release a new Malevolence. But today, it really happened, and she was in a state of confusion. "I don't feel anything unusual for the past two days. According to the usual pattern, when I split, shouldn't I fall into a deep sleep for about a century and go into a manic state before splitting? And after splitting, there will be serious amnesia and power loss. "
Before Hao Ren had time to analyze, Lily had already jumped to her feet. "That's easy to explain. You usually give out such a big lump, but this time, it seems like the amount you gave out is less than a period …"
Vivian threw an ice cube at the husky's face. "No one will think you're mute if you don't talk!"
Hao Ren looked at this scene with cold sweat on his forehead. He forcefully swallowed back the words "I think it makes sense" that were stuck in his throat …
Suddenly, Nangong Sanba remembered something. He raised his head and looked at the corner of the wall. "By the way, where does the mouse hole lead to?"
"I really don't know about that." Hao Ren scratched his head. "This house is more than 20 years old … Wuyue, help me check it out."
Wuyue summoned a stream of water and sent it into the mouse hole. After a while, she looked surprised. "Oh, this hole seems to lead to the basement. It's right where Vivian usually sleeps."
"Then it seems like Vivian did split while she was sleeping." Hao Ren looked at the vampire maiden with a confused look. "But I don't know why she split into this thing this time."
Just as everyone was discussing, the sound of the door opening came from the direction of the porch. Then, Y 'lisabet's energetic voice flew into the house. "Uncle Ren, Uncle Ren! I'm back. What are we having for lunch? Eh? What's everyone doing? "
Y 'zaks and Y' lisabet were the first to come in. She was shocked to see a large group of people around the coffee table with a serious look on their faces. Behind her was Y 'zaks, who looked like an iron tower. The old demon was also surprised to see the situation in the house, but he quickly looked at the lunchbox in the middle of the coffee table.
It was not that he sensed something in the lunchbox, but he had never seen a lunchbox move so fast …
"Vivian split," Hao Ren said concisely. "The split is in this lunchbox."
The old demon was dumbfounded. "What?"
Ten minutes later, the whole story was explained. Y 'zaks and Y' lisabet also joined in the discussion. Y 'lisabet held the lunchbox curiously. "Can I see it?"
Hao Ren and Vivian looked at each other and nodded. "Be careful. Don't let her run away. Although that little thing can't run fast."
Y 'lisabet nodded and carefully removed the scotch tape on the lunchbox. She held the screwdriver in one hand (no one knew why she took it out) and slowly opened the lid of the lunchbox with the other.
Almost as soon as the lid was opened, a small black figure darted out from inside and fell on the coffee table with a thud.
The palm-sized mini Vivian rolled on the table and got up on all fours. She began to make threatening hissing sounds and immediately saw Y 'lisabet, who was holding the screwdriver and was the closest to her. Vivian immediately pounced on her and at the same time, she raised her hand and shot a dark-red Toxic Blood Arrow without hesitation.
The Toxic Blood Arrow hit Y 'lisabet's small horn (it seemed that this rookie Malevolence did not even have a good aim). This time, the little demon did not even feel it, let alone break her skin. She was just a little startled. She then used the screwdriver to pin down the mini Vivian who was pouncing on her and began to study it curiously.
Y 'zaks scratched his chin and looked at the scene with interest. "In terms of strength and aura, it is indeed very similar to the' evil spirit 'we have dealt with before. But it's not just weak. By the way, Vivian, did you feel any loss of power or memory problems after the split? "
Vivian had been asked this question a few times. This time, she tried to think for a long time before she finally nodded with uncertainty. "If I have to say … I felt a little weak when I woke up this morning, but basically, it's the same state as if I didn't sleep well. As for memory loss, I don't know. "
"Oh yes, Battie, you said you would stew me ribs for lunch!" Lily suddenly exclaimed. "It's half past eleven now! Are you going to stew it or not? "
"When did I say I would stew ribs for you?" Vivian looked puzzled.
Lily pinched her chin and nodded. She looked like she had solved a case. "Well, it seems that this is Battie's lost memory."
Hao Ren and Vivian said in unison, "Get lost! Don't cause trouble! "
"I'm not causing trouble, meow! When are you going to return the rat I caught? "
"… It's none of your business."
"Wait a minute, I have an idea." Just as everyone was discussing Vivian's split, Nangong Sanba suddenly thought of something. "Could it be that the amulet given by the goddess had weakened the effects of the split?"
"Amulet?" Hao Ren was stunned for a moment because he had forgotten about it. However, Vivian was obviously very particular about every amulet she had. She immediately took out a silver-white feather-shaped pendant from her pocket.
This was what Raven 12345 had given her. It was used to alleviate her usual drowsiness and memory loss.
At this moment, the amulet was emitting a faint white light and a burst of warmth. Vivian immediately deduced from the amulet's condition that it had been activated recently.
"I'm afraid that's the reason …" After recalling the origin of the amulet, Hao Ren suddenly felt that his mind was clear. The reason for the strange situation was easily solved.
Vivian had indeed split last night. She had fallen into a deep slumber and lost a little bit of her power. Perhaps she had really lost a little bit of her memory (maybe the ribs that Lily wanted were real). At the same time, she had created a demonic doppelganger with violent tendencies. But this time, her split process was completely harmless by the goddess's blessing!
However, after thinking about it, he felt a cold sweat running down his back. What if Vivian did not have the amulet with her?
That would have been a huge problem!
Everyone thought of this possibility. Vivian's face turned grim. "I thought I would sleep for at least a century or two … I didn't expect it to come so soon. Fortunately, I have the amulet this time, or else … "
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. She could not help but look around. This big, lively family, this place that she had never had before, she almost lost it all today.
Hao Ren noticed that Vivian was shaken. He reached out and held her cold hand. "Don't be afraid. Nothing happened. The hibernation problem that we were most worried about is over. You can rest in peace for at least a few centuries."
Vivian let out a long sigh and smiled. "You're right. I'm a little nervous."
After comforting Vivian, Hao Ren got to his feet. "Anyway, although this Malevolence is not a threat, I still have to tell Raven 12345 about it. Y 'lisabet, stop playing around. I'll bring this … little thing to the goddess. Lily, lend me your lunchbox again. "
