I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 32: Chapter 31 This Is the Big Data Recommendation, Right?_1

Having returned to the church, Zheng Yichen felt refreshed and reassured to know that his bodily structures were all normal, and that he basically wouldn’t undergo any additional anomalies; he wouldn’t have to worry about something bursting out of his body like those small animals do.

Of course, once he became more powerful, he could get re-examined somewhere else. Previously, his aversion to physical examinations stemmed from his fear of being taken away for research. Once his strength improved, he wouldn’t have to worry about this issue.

When Extraordinary Beings initially emerged, as long as one subjectively considered themselves human, there would be no internal or external changes. When his anomaly appeared, he was still in the dark about it.

After all, he only discovered the Withering Disease when anomalies began to manifest in his body. Before that, he hadn’t noticed anything. But as a human, and not some small animal, even though he was unaware of the anomaly’s emergence within him, he was very clear about one thing: he was a person.

Two legs, two hands, he knew how many fingers he had, he had a nose and eyes; a human with organs like a heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys—not some being of Chaos with tentacles all over and always secreting large amounts of mucus.

Subjectively, he had always been a standard member of the human race.

Armed with new knowledge, Zheng Yichen gained a new understanding of Extraordinary creatures. According to this idea, it seemed quite normal for small animals to take on bizarre shapes after becoming Extraordinary. The knowledge shared by Prioress Tia matched what Zheng Yichen had learned from other sources.

In any event, during the process of becoming Extraordinary, subjective consciousness was very important, but it seemed to only determine the nature of the changes that would manifest, enough to ensure one didn’t stop appearing human. However, the Extraordinary abilities that developed afterwards were unpredictable.

Whether this was a matter of luck or some other factor... Zheng Yichen didn’t need anyone to enlighten him on this; the internet was rife with discussions and speculations about Extraordinary creatures and their abilities, with plenty of both truth and fiction.

Even diving deeper into these discussions seemed of no use to him, as he had already passed the initial stage of becoming Extraordinary.

The issues he had worried about for many years had been partially resolved... at least, half-resolved. He felt much more relaxed knowing that his anomaly wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, which was quite nice.

Zheng Yichen pondered whether he should draw some blood and send it to some institute as a ’submission’. Maybe it could be a bestseller. The attack by various Extraordinary small animals the night he returned indicated the strong attraction his blood held for these creatures.

His dark spear’s ability to draw blood, and other Extraordinary creatures being interested in his bloodstream, also made sense.

In the following days, Zheng Yichen frequently visited the Dusk Cathedral to ’heal his wounds,’ and he confirmed something new: he wasn’t quite sure if Prioress Tia was there when he wasn’t paying attention, but when he did, she was indeed always at the Dusk Cathedral, which was very... magical.

Hunter Arno never came back.

"This rate of recovery feels abnormal to me," Zheng Yichen remarked somewhat poignantly in the infirmary as he looked at the bandages that had been removed from his body.

"Some Extraordinary Beings heal even faster," Tia’s cool fingers brushed over one of the healed wounds on Zheng Yichen’s body. "The bones will need half a month to heal, but the external wounds have already fully recovered."

"Have you seen such Extraordinary Beings?" Zheng Yichen asked, his curiosity piqued. He thought his own healing rate was fast enough, yet there were faster ones? He could feel his rapid recovery; mainly because he had drawn a substantial amount of blood from the one-horned mule, which brought about an increase in his body’s condition accompanied by extra regenerative strength.

Once this period of increase ended, the surplus healing strength would probably return to normal standards.

"Other nuns have seen it." Tia tossed the bandages she removed from Zheng Yichen into the trash can.

After leaving the Dusk Cathedral, Zheng Yichen headed to the vehicle shop that the bartender had recommended. Previously, he wasn’t fully healed and had only visited a few times to look at vehicles without seriously deciding on one. Now that he was almost fully recovered, it was time to make a decision. As for that one percent discount, it seemed to make no difference whether it was there or not.

Yet, he could save a little bit with it, after all, vehicles were really expensive around here. He didn’t choose a car but took a liking to a very powerful motorcycle... Well, his ability to appreciate cars was only so-so before he became a transmigrator.

He just liked the motorcycle’s design and color. Importantly, it had a very sturdy lock and the tires were specially made solid ones that could withstand tearing and pulling by beasts, and the body was made of bulletproof material.

This type of model was specifically marketed towards Hunters, with many modification interfaces allowing Hunters using this vehicle to make adjustments according to their needs. The base model was priced at one hundred and eighty-eight thousand.

The medium and high configurations weren’t within Zheng Yichen’s consideration for now, especially the high-end ones that started at a million; Zheng Yichen found it quite jaw-dropping. It’s just a means of transportation, did it have to be so extravagant?

But after further understanding, he kept quiet. In addition to serving as a means of transportation, the high-end version of the motorcycle was also a combat tool for Hunters... A starting price of a million was indeed steep, but those high-end Hunters wouldn’t even bat an eye at it; it was only the wealthy second-generation Hunters who would consider it.

Of course, with money, they could completely order their personalized ’combat vehicle’.

As a means of transportation, one was enough. Zheng Yichen’s present fortune allowed only for the base model.

"This one is good," Zheng Yichen decided on the motorcycle named Alloy R1.

"The relevant procedures will be completed within two days. You can come and pick up the vehicle then," the salesperson said with a smile to Zheng Yichen. Here, purchasing vehicles wasn’t necessarily done on finance; they didn’t even actively sell that. Paying in full was more beneficial for them.

Zheng Yichen was the kind to make a full payment. Although it became obvious when he arrived here that he was a novice and a newbie, Zheng Yichen also casually mentioned the name of the bartender from Night Banquet Bar who recommended this place. Since it was a referral, they discretely refrained from doing anything unnecessary.

In the end, it was because the young man before them was a Hunter, even if he was a novice hunter.

Leaving the vehicle shop, he went to the Night Banquet Bar, and the bartender as usual poured a glass of fruit wine for Zheng Yichen. "You’ve recovered quite quickly. Ready to look for new jobs?"

"Yeah, I’ve been idle for a week now, so I’m looking for something to do." Zheng Yichen tasted the fruit wine he hadn’t touched in a week and continued, "More importantly, I’m broke after buying the bike."

"Haha, don’t worry, the places I recommended are guaranteed in terms of quality," the bartender laughed and pulled out a ’menu’. It was different from what Zheng Yichen had seen last time. The bartender explained, "The menu changes based on some hidden ratings of the Hunters. You have completed two jobs, so the recommended jobs will change again."

"Generally, this clear change will persist until you complete your fifth job. At that time, when you look at the menu, the types of jobs will basically settle down, unless you actively search for different jobs."

"Got it."

This is just big data recommendations, huh...
