Beryl raised her eyes to look at Gu Wanyin and asked, "Do you also think I'm a freak?"
"Ah, not at all," Gu Wanyin said. "Every person, no, every vampire has different tastes, just like humans have foods they like and foods they don't like."
Beryl's eyes lit up with joy. She flew directly in front of Gu Wanyin, grabbed her hands, and said, "That's wonderful! You're the first vampire who understands me!"
Seeing how happy she was, Gu Wanyin felt too awkward to mention that she wasn't actually a vampire.
At least, she could offer her some comfort.
"What's your name?" Beryl asked eagerly, looking at her.
"My name is... Wan Wan Yin Yin."
Even Gu Wanyin wanted to criticize herself after saying that name.
What kind of ridiculous name was that?
But then again, vampires probably had many strange names, right? Like Bu Chuan Ku Cha...
Sure enough, after hearing it, Beryl didn't seem to find it strange at all.
"I got it! You must come visit me in the West District when you have the chance! I have to go now, bye!"
Beryl bid her farewell and flew away.
Watching her disappear, Gu Wanyin said to the system, "I never expected to meet such a vampire. She's quite adorable."
"Host, think about it - in the previous world, there were even lazy zombies, so having a vampire who doesn't like blood isn't that surprising."
"That's true," Gu Wanyin nodded. "Wait a minute, you've been perched on my shoulder the whole time, how come she didn't notice you?"
"I was invisible," the system said proudly. "When I don't want others to see me, no one except you can see me."
"I see."
Gu Wanyin didn't waste any more time and continued flying toward Lunxi Island.
On the way, Gu Wanyin passed over an ocean.
She looked down and asked the system, "Since this world has vampires and blue elves, could there be mermaids in the sea?"
"I don't know, the interstellar side hasn't provided any information about mermaids."
"Maybe there really are."
After a while, Gu Wanyin finally landed on Lunxi Island.
The island was almost entirely covered in forest, with lush trees and all sorts of strange plants.
As soon as she landed, Gu Wanyin could smell the fresh scent of plants.
"The environment on this island is quite nice," Gu Wanyin said with a smile. "It would be great if we could open a hotel here."
Unfortunately, the island was too remote, and there was an ocean to cross.
Humans couldn't reach this place.
The areas where humans lived were now full of vampires, and who would dare to take a boat out to sea?
If there were boats on the sea, vampires would easily spot them.
"Host, you can use the instant skin-changing function now!" the system said proudly. "This island is full of sprites of different colors. If you change your skin to a different color, it will be easy to gain their favor."
Gu Wanyin: "..."
She hadn't expected this function would actually come in handy.
"Since I'm looking for green sprites, I might as well turn my skin green."
As soon as Gu Wanyin finished speaking, her entire skin turned green.
She couldn't help but take out her pocket mirror and look at her face.
Then she fell silent.
"Host, your current appearance has a strange sense of humor," the system commented.
"Thanks a lot."
"You're too kind."
Gu Wanyin resisted the urge to pinch it and started walking forward.
After a few steps, she heard a "bang" followed by an "ouch" cry of pain.
Looking ahead, she saw a small creature, only about half a meter tall, with a round head and pointed ears, lying sprawled on the ground.
It was entirely purple.
It was now ruefully rubbing its bottom.
There was a tree next to it.
Gu Wanyin figured it must have fallen from the tree.
She walked over.
This little thing wasn't just round-headed - almost its entire body was round and chubby, including its eyes and nose, which were perfectly circular.
Only its ears were pointed.
"Are you okay?" Gu Wanyin asked.
"I'm fine... Hey, who are you? You're not a sprite!"
The purple sprite's eyes widened when it saw her appearance.
Which made its eyes look even rounder.
After all, Gu Wanyin's appearance was quite different from theirs.
However, probably because Gu Wanyin had turned her skin green, it wasn't too alarmed.
"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm," Gu Wanyin showed a kind smile. "I'm from another continent."
"What are you doing here?" The purple sprite's face showed wariness. "You're not here to take over our territory, are you? This is our sprite island, and if you want to take it over, we won't let you!"
"I absolutely don't have that intention," Gu Wanyin quickly waved her hands. "I just came to look around, and by the way, to hire a server for my shop."
"What shop? What's a server?"
Gu Wanyin explained for a while until it finally understood what a hotel and server meant.
The purple sprite seemed quite interested: "Really? Does it include room and board? Can I go?"
"I'm sorry," Gu Wanyin apologetically said. "I'm only hiring green sprites."
The purple sprite: "...How can you discriminate based on color!"
Gu Wanyin thought to herself that she had no choice! It was the task requirement!
"Since we've met by chance, I'll help you look for green sprites," the purple sprite said, growing a pair of transparent wings on its back. "You can call me Mindless."
Gu Wanyin: "...Are you sure your name is Mindless?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Mindless looked at her puzzled. "Is there a problem?"
"Nothing, I'm just curious, do you happen to have a sibling called Unhappy?"
"How did you know my younger brother is called Unhappy!"
Mindless flapped its little wings and flew up.
Its round, chubby body paired with those tiny wings looked strange but quite cute.
It didn't fly fast, so Gu Wanyin didn't fly with it but walked on the ground instead.
The deeper they went into the forest, the more amazed Gu Wanyin became.
The forest was larger than she had imagined, and there were even more varieties of plants - red flowers that started dancing when they heard sounds, shrubs that grew tall and short alternately, and green leaves with strong fragrances...
Occasionally, sprites flew past, curiously examining her.
However, she still hadn't found the green sprites she was looking for.
After walking a bit further, Gu Wanyin's eyes suddenly lit up.
This was a very spacious area with many huge mushrooms growing around it. Many sprites were chasing and playing here, and Gu Wanyin saw many green sprites.
