Before this, Raven 12345 had already performed a bodily check on Vivian more than once. At that time, Hao Ren had not been able to find the original blood of the Goddess of Creation, and the examination of Vivian only focused on her physical health. Since Hao Ren had the Gilded Disc and corrupted Goddess' blood, they might be able to have a deeper understanding of Vivian.

It is a shame Raven 12345, who was familiar with this case, had reported back to home. Only Raven with a name as long as telephone number was holding down the fort. No one knew how well this goddess knew about the situation, but it seemed that Hao Ren had no other choice but to make do with it and see if this goddess could help.

Raven 15433616836 glanced at Vivian and nodded slightly. "Let's see what I can do."

Then she gently snapped her fingers, and lights as pure as crystal appeared in the surrounding space. These lights quickly reorganized, and in the blink of an eye, became a sequence of runes that spun in a circle. The goddess gestured to Vivian and said, "Stand in the middle of the rune and relax. Tell me if you feel uncomfortable."

Vivian did whatever the goddess instructed. Hao Ren could not help but think of how Raven 12345 examined Vivian. He still clearly remembered his superior was using a piece of advanced medical equipment. He mumbled, "When Raven 12345 first examined her, she was using a medical pod."

Raven 15431516836 smiled. "I'm different from her, my brain is fine."

Hao Ren was dumbstruck.

It looks like Raven 12345's aberrant behavior had been a household name.

Vivian stood in the middle of the circle of runes and waited patiently without looking sideways, appearing a little nervous though Hao Ren was even more nervous. Hao Ren watched as Raven 15431516836 touched the runes, which then lit up one after another like a star. Every scowl and blink of the goddess had his heart racing; he had never been as worried about Vivian as it was today. It was all because of the association that Lily made. Hao Ren was worried that Vivian would be like the Gilded Disc becoming the original sin carrier.

The examination took only minutes, but it felt like centuries to Hao Ren and Vivian. Raven 15431516836 removed the runes and sighed softly. "I didn't find anything similar to the corrupted blood on the Gilded Disc, but I don't rule out the possibility of an unidentified mutation," she said.

Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief, somewhat. "You couldn't see any signs of corruption?" he asked.

"Though her blood and the blood on the Gilded Disc are both sacred blood, not all types of blood are corruptible." Raven 15431516836 smiled. "The original sin is an extraordinary thing; it's invisible, without physical form, has no rules to how it takes effect. So anything is possible," she explained.

"But Vivian shows signs of mania every once in a while, and has inexplicable memory loss," Hao Ren's brows knit together. "Amnesia and madness, which are exactly the symptoms of the Sin of the Divine Blood. The affected races had manifested this memory loss and madness symptoms," he said.


Vivian sullenly groaned. "They just lost their memories once, but I had that serially. They didn't hurt their men when they were mad, but I could even self-mutilate. What's wrong with me?" she said.

"You don't have that smell of the original sin in you," Raven with the name as long as a telephone number said, appearing serious. "Perhaps the corruption happens in a deeper part in you, and then it will be hard to tell," she said.

Vivian exhaled. "Forget it. Let's wait until 12345 comes back. There hadn't been a major problem with my body for the past ten thousand years anyway," she said.

It was amazing how positive the bat demon's thinking was, Hao Ren thought, as people would scramble to the hospital even though they just lost their memory once. She lost hers dozens of times and was still be able to keep a level head. It had become an attitude of her entirely. It seemed that she would be content as long as she lived.

Hao Ren tucked the Gilded Disc, which had been purified. He felt that in the absence of Raven 12345, many things were still left hanging in the air. Just before he went, he asked curiously, "I want to ask some questions. You can ignore me if they are classified. Was there anyone handling the Plane of Dreams case before me? As a rookie, I am entrusted to handle all matters in the entire universe. Is there such a precedent in the Space Administration? Raven 12345 has never told me about this."

"Though I am not the management god of this universe, I do know a little about it though I'm not in charge of this universe," said the mobile-number Raven slowly. "You are the first inspector handling the matter. Before you, the Plane of Dreams was not a concern; it was only a natural phenomenon. Though it was very unstable, no one had ever taken it seriously. Things only got worse in recent years. As for whether a recruit could handle the job, to be honest, there have been precedents, but I have questions about your appointment to handle this matter. Of course, I know you've been doing quite well for the last couple of years. I'm not sure if it was pure luck or any other factors, you'd solved many problems that only veterans would encounter. I doubt your ability though. I don't understand why 12345 senior has chosen a recruit like you. She doesn't even let another inspector intervene," she said.

Hao Ren thought for a moment, "Perhaps something is wrong with her brain," he said.

He quickly jumped to the side after saying that. Of course, it was just a precaution. As it turned out, he did not have to do that; the great consciousness of the universe did not even blink an eye, let alone divine wrath.

It seemed that talking about whether Raven 12345 was neurotic was not blasphemy.

The mobile-number Raven just kept her usual smile and looked at Hao Ren, shaking her head. "I don't know, but she has her reason and never made a decision at whim. So I would rather believe that she chose you for a reason."

Hao Ren thought for a while. He then conveyed his gratitude to the mobile-number Raven before heading home with Vivian.

After Hao Ren and Vivian had left, Raven 15433516836 stood quietly in this turbidly gray space for a long time, as if meditating and was unaware of the passage of time. After a long moment, a wave of ripples suddenly appeared in the air, awakening her from her thoughts.

She looked up. The water ripples condensed and the visual of a female figure that looked identical to her appeared. She smiled and said, "12345 senior, you're done with the business in the divine realm?"

"Almost, I will be back in two days," Raven 12345 waved in the visual. She looked exactly like 15433516836; they were like the mirror image of one another. What set them apart though was their temperaments; the sense of incongruence was not ordinarily strong. "I have just gone to the camp of the Scorpion Army, it was exciting. Do you want to try?"

15431516836 ignored her psychotic senior and talked business. "Today, an inspector named Hao Ren came to see you. I've met him on your behalf."

"Oh? Hao Ren? Did he make a discovery?" Raven 12345 appeared interested. "I tell you what; he's got talent! I've never seen anyone like him; he is a freak magnet, absolutely the kind of whiz who would bump into Martian invaders on the way to buy grocery in the stores across the street. Two years on the job, he had been blowing things up wherever he went. Now, his CV rivals those of the veterans who have hundreds of years of experience. Oh yeah, what was he doing here?"

"He has collected the blood specimen of the Goddess of Creation; not that of after the evolution but directly came from the Goddess of Creation herself. Her blood that was splattered during the deicidal incident."

Raven 12345 suddenly froze. After a long while, she said, "That's why I said, he's got talent."

"I've got the specimen waiting for you to come back for analysis. There is also the Gilded Disc, which I've let him take away after I purified it as per your instruction," Raven 15431516836 reported matter-of-factly. "How about you? Have you found the 'source'?"

"Timelord and the Warsong Princess have been ruled out. The two bosses have never lost their power nor avatar, and I'm still in the midst of identifying the others. The Void-T Quadrant isn't quite peaceful recently, half of the bosses have gone there. I can't badger them to come back to make an identification, isn't it?"

Raven 15433616836 nodded solemnly, then a little curious. "What is happening on your side? Why am I hearing someone was knocking?"

Raven 12345 guffawed. "Did I not say tell you that I'd gone to the scorpion's barrack? They are now smashing my door. I tell you what, it's exciting— Oh shit, when did you get in here? Don't be angry, calm down. I was kidding… Oh wait, please don't!"
