Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

"To me, this intelligence isn't worth spending any Advanced Points on, I'd rather buy a test tube from you."

"Either tell me directly, so I'll owe you a favor, or keep your intelligence to yourself and let it rot inside you. But if you don't speak today and later want to tell me, I won't acknowledge the favor."

Doctor A, with no other choice:

"I shouldn't have played a guessing game with someone who has the 'sixth sense player' trait. Alright... let me tell you."

"The highest tier of corrupted beings, although they completed their divine transformation on the night of Divine Endowment, angered the old gods by doing so."

"A conflict between the new and the old was imminent."

"During the twilight of the gods, there was one god—arrogant and full of pride, called the God of Games and Entertainment. He was powerful, capable of turning his enemies into game props, even pixelating parts of regions at one point..."

"This new god declared that after the fall of the old gods, he would transform all the inheritors of the old gods, all living beings... into his game props."

"The provocation of the God of Games and Entertainment led to him being targeted by an old god you are familiar with. That old god... how should I put it, ha, actually thought the idea of the new god was quite good, interesting, and fun enough."

Zhou Baiyu already had a hunch about which old god it was upon hearing this.

"I must be that old god's inheritor, I suppose."

"Correct answer. The God of Difference and Chaos, although targeted by both new and old gods... managed to make the God of Games and Entertainment... a rule in this process."

"This rule has permeated all adventures and summons that came after your precursors."

Zhou Baiyu felt an urge to laugh.

He now guessed that the God of Difference and Chaos probably really enjoyed causing trouble.

Hence, the old gods feared it would become a snitch during the twilight of the gods, so they decided to kill it.

And the new gods feared this unpredictable old god might cause some major turnaround, so they wanted to kill it too.

The outcome was...

This god, under the scrutiny of all gods, decided to first eliminate the God of Games and Entertainment.

This unfortunate, boastful new god became the first rule—

The world became gamified.

So there came the version updates, and the descriptions of various game props like language that wrapped around this cruel apocalypse.

He wanted to keep listening, to find out what remarkable feats his worshipped god had achieved during the twilight of the gods.

All gods dying, all becoming rules, whether this had anything to do with that god.

But Doctor A no longer wished to speak more about it.

"The fall of the king of gods, the night of Divine Endowment, the twilight of the gods... there are many details, even some that are revolutionary, but all this is also something I am still in pursuit of."

"Zhou Baiyu, that's all I can tell you. Now let's get back on track."

"Once you return to the real world, you need to dig out that brand. Of course, the simplest way is to shatter the stones, dissolve the body, cremate the corpse, or even eating it wouldn't be bad."

"Doing so, the curse would be lifted."

Zhou Baiyu interrupted Doctor A's speech, asking another crucial question:

"What does the appearance of the new god's followers on this land signify?"

Doctor A revealed a mysterious smile:

"Good question. All I can tell you is... the appearance of the followers means the difficulties faced by the precursors of Dragon Summer Country have increased."

"Precursors of Dragon Summer Country are basically from the old gods' lineage. And the followers from abroad are almost all from the new gods' lineage."

"There has been an agreement among the gods, within the Advanced World... there are boundaries between countries, and these boundaries cannot be crossed."

"This also led to Dragon Summer Country appearing as the only country in the world after the apocalypse."

"Cities in Dragon Summer Country controlled by the old gods' lineage, like the cities of Lin Xiang, Hechuan, Songjiang, Capital City, have mostly been occupied by demons and corrupted creatures in the 2.49 version."

"It's dire, isn't it? But the world outside is in an even worse state."

"The old gods' reach no longer extends out there. The new gods' reformation of those areas might defy your imagination."

"It's quite normal for the situation to be like this, after all, there are hundreds of new gods, but only nine old gods. In the war between the new and the old, the new gods have been driving the old gods to retreat step by step."

"That's also why that God of Games and Entertainment from the new gods could boast such claims, to turn all the inheritors of the old gods into his game props."

"In the end, to secure the inheritance qualifications and completely erase the old gods, the new and old gods initiated a grand battle, heralding the arrival of the twilight of the gods."

"But no one expected the battle, which should have had no suspense, to be turned into a stalemate through the old gods showing methods the new gods had never seen before."

"After the twilight of the gods, the new and old gods became rules, and the conflict between the new and the old moved onto the next stage."

"If the entire Dragon Summer Country in the Advanced World becomes corrupted soil, then the struggle between the new and the old... will end with the victory of the new gods."

"Originally, there was no suspense in this battle. Humans were bound to be defeated, and the lineage of the old gods was almost impossible to win."

"But due to the continuous emergence of SSS-rankers in recent calls, although they are all trivial versions, nobody knows whether the precursors might cause major events to change due to the butterfly effect by continuously changing minor events, thereby altering the framework of the conflict between the new and the old."

"Therefore... some among 'us' are getting uneasy, and they have started to increase the difficulty."

"Now, they have begun to send followers to pollute your world. This is a form of harassment."
