Chapter 74

Lily's hands were clearly trembling, but she didn't realize it until someone reminded her. At the same time, the few pieces of broken porcelain she was holding in her hand crumbled into a pile of powder, as if completely out of her control.

"I... I don't know what's happening..." Lily waved her hands nervously, "I didn't use any force..."

Hao Ren was also puzzled, but seeing the panic on Lily's face, he was the first to calm down: "Don't panic, relax, don't move around—Vivian, do you know what's going on?"

Vivian carefully observed Lily's unusually bright eyes: "It seems like you're in some kind of inexplicable excitement... Did you eat something strange? Did you take any stimulants?"

Lily was almost in tears: "No, I only had a steamed bun this afternoon, and I was so hungry just now that I had no strength..."

Hao Ren couldn't even think about eating. He noticed that not only were Lily's hands trembling, but her whole body was also slightly shaking, as if she was about to lose control of her muscles. He quickly helped the werewolf girl up: "Let's go to the sofa and rest... Relax a bit!"

As Hao Ren helped Lily stand up, he found that her muscles were very stiff. It felt like he was trying to support a block of hard steel. But when Lily heard Hao Ren's words, she shook her head forcefully: "I don't dare to relax. Once I relax, I can't control my strength. Landlord, don't support me. I'm afraid I might accidentally throw you out... Ah, I really did throw you out!"

Lily just moved her arm slightly, and Hao Ren felt like he was being flung away by a speeding truck. He even knocked over Vivian, who was closest to him. The werewolf girl was both anxious and scared. She wanted to help, but seeing her trembling and increasingly uncontrollable hands, she could only stand still and then carefully sit down on the sofa. As soon as she put her hands on the armrest, she tore a large hole in the sofa.

Hao Ren and Vivian, looking rather disheveled, helped each other up. Fortunately, their enhanced bodies were quite resilient; otherwise, this one incident would have landed Hao Ren in the hospital for two weeks. The two of them cautiously approached Lily and saw that the werewolf girl was already huddled in the corner of the sofa, her body stiff, and her limbs not daring to move, as if she was afraid that even a breath would tear the house apart.

"It seems to be a sudden loss of control of her strength, along with an unexplained mild excitement, but her mind is still very clear," Vivian, the only person on the scene who had some knowledge of werewolves, had to step up and act as a doctor. She told Lily not to move and then bravely went up to check her eyes, "There's a slight redness in the lower eyelids. Open your mouth and let me see your tongue... Seriously, you didn't eat anything strange?"

Lily shook her head with a sad face: "No, I really don't know what's happening!"

The werewolf girl was almost in tears. She had never been sick in her life, and even minor injuries were rare. This lack of experience with illness made her panic. Hao Ren was also at a loss, and he could only hope for help from Vivian: "Do you know how to treat a werewolf?"

"Completely clueless," Vivian shook her head frankly.

"…Then why did you check her eyes and tongue so professionally?"

Vivian turned her face away: "I only realized I don't know how to treat her after I finished the examination!"

"What should we do?" Hao Ren spread his hands, "Should we take her to the hospital?"

Vivian pointed at Lily's ears and tail: "What department should we go to? What doctor can treat this kind of condition?"

Hao Ren thought for a long time and realized that if they really wanted to treat Lily, they would probably need a veterinarian.

"Hey, that's right, a veterinarian!" Hao Ren slapped his forehead, "Lily, you're a veterinarian yourself, right?"

The werewolf girl slapped the sofa backrest: "I usually treat dogs, but I'm a werewolf! I can't treat myself... Ah, sorry, the sofa is broken."

Hao Ren silently looked at the broken sofa backrest, not even thinking about getting angry. He could only hope for help from the last powerful person on the scene: "Izax, do you have any ideas?"

Izax shook his head bluntly: "There are no such creatures in the Demon Abyss, and I'm not a doctor."

Hao Ren translated the Great Demon's words, and Lily immediately lowered her head in disappointment: "What should we do... Am I infected with some incurable disease? Bat, do you know what to do if a werewolf gets sick? You might not be able to treat it, but you must have seen many werewolves, right?"

"Um..." Vivian's expression was very strange, "Usually, when a werewolf gets sick, I celebrate by having a good meal."

Everyone: "..."

"You're still making jokes!" Lily's tail bristled with anger, "This might be your fault! Ever since I saw that red moon you summoned a few days ago, I've felt uncomfortable. Maybe today..."

"Wait!" Hao Ren quickly interrupted Lily, "You mean the red moon? What red moon?"

"It was the day we first met the big guy," Lily pouted, "The bat summoned a huge red moon. I looked at that moon and immediately felt very uncomfortable. I've been feeling bad for several days, all because of this bat."

Hao Ren finally remembered the strange sight he saw that night: the demonic fire sea floating in the sky and the blood-red full moon summoned by the vampire facing each other. The grandeur of that scene was still vivid in his mind. However, at the time, he didn't think much about it, only marveling at how powerful Vivian seemed, able to stand up to a Great Demon like Izax. As for the blood-red full moon... he didn't feel anything.

But now it seemed that Lily had reacted to the moonlight.

"Is it really related to the moon?" Hao Ren looked at Vivian, expecting her to refute it, but to his surprise, Vivian hesitated and nodded: "I'm not sure... The blood moon can indeed affect many races. A long time ago, I used it once and drove a whole werewolf tribe mad. But that night, I had already controlled my power. The moonlight should have only made the big dogs a bit uncomfortable, and there shouldn't have been any aftereffects. And it hasn't happened for so many days, so my blood moon should have lost its effect after it was canceled."

"Right, we can ask Raven 12345!" When everyone was at a loss, Hao Ren suddenly thought of a powerful ally, "She asked me to take care of you, so if anything happens, we should report to her. How about, Vivian, you make the effort, and we take Lily to her now..."

"No, at least wait until tomorrow morning," Vivian stopped Hao Ren and pointed out the window, "There are four days until the full moon. The moonlight is still stimulating Lily. Taking her outside would likely worsen her condition, and she might go berserk on the spot."

"So the problem now is how to get through tonight," Hao Ren nodded, his gaze returning to Lily. The cold shivers had stopped, but her hands were still trembling severely, and her golden eyes were becoming cloudy, the increasingly bright golden light in them was very unsettling, "Lily, are you still conscious?"

The werewolf girl nodded: "I'm fine."

Hao Ren was still worried and asked again: "What's 1999 plus 100?"

"2000."

"Damn... She's confused!"

"Confused my ass," Vivian slapped Hao Ren's shoulder, "She usually can't do math. This is her normal level!"

Hao Ren and Vivian were busy but getting nowhere, and finally, Izax offered a crucial suggestion: "I think the most important thing is to prevent this girl from moving. Her destructive power is too strong, and she can't control it. Forcing her to stay still will not only exhaust her but also easily hurt others—do you have any strong ropes or chains?"

"Forget it," Hao Ren sighed, "A chain as thick as a bowl can be broken by one hand. This girl has no special skills, but her strength is just unfair."

Izax spread his hands: "Then the only option is to knock her out."

"Even a dozen-ton rock might not knock her out," Hao Ren looked at Izax, "But if you do it, it should work?"

Izax waved his hand: "I won't do it. I can't bring myself to, it doesn't fit my principles."

Hao Ren really wanted to explode: What kind of high moral standards does a demon have?

"I'll do it myself..." After Hao Ren translated Izax's suggestion, Lily looked pitifully at the three people around her and decided to cooperate to show her gratitude. But when she raised her hand to her head, she was still a bit hesitant, "In this state... won't I accidentally kill myself?"

"If you can't do it, I'll do it," Vivian gestured, "But I might not knock you out on the first try, and magic might not work either, so it will take a while..."

Just as she finished speaking, there was a "bang," and Lily knocked herself out with one punch.

Hao Ren looked at the sleeping werewolf girl, who was now breathing steadily, and said, "Actually, I was about to say... the data terminal just said it has a way to temporarily control Lily's symptoms."

Vivian: "...Ha, ha, let's go eat, let's go eat..."
