Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

But he was, after all, a battle-hardened practitioner of purity; he bit his tongue in an instant, preparing to shoot backwards under the feeling of unbearable oppression...

Zhang Haoyun frowned slightly. This human... wasn't half bad.

But the disparity was just too great, she reached out and single-handedly choked Constantin by the neck.

As Zhang Haoyun's arm reached out towards Constantin, the Red Gaze on her arm abruptly opened.

In that moment, Constantin recalled the most terrifying scene from his childhood.

His grandfather, wielding an iron hammer charred red at one end, huge as a mountain, with only endless crimson in his eyes, began chasing after him.

This is a dream!

Constantin was only distracted for an instant by the Red Gaze before he quickly regained his composure. But by then, he was utterly controlled by Zhang Haoyun.

It must be said, seeing a woman of 1.7 meters tall picking up a man of 1.9 meters one-handedly... was somewhat odd.

"Don't kill him, I have questions for him," Zhou Baiyu said in time.

Zhang Haoyun hadn't planned on killing him in the first place, and looked at Constantin with a "what's your problem, little brother" expression of disdain.

In the Advanced World, if using an advanced body to fight, Constantin might not necessarily lose to Zhang Haoyun.

But in the real world, what legendary pioneers or practitioners of purity, no ordinary body can face a demon king-level existence without it being a pipe dream.

It was only with Guang Tongchen, who had today grasped the correct way to deal with demon king-level Corrupted beings.

But obviously—Constantin didn't understand.

After all, in his summons, corrupted beings were to be completely annihilated.

Zhou Baiyu hadn't expected that a new devotee of a God would suddenly appear.

To be able to shoot at this location, to enter silently to the side of a demon-king level being...

This person must be extraordinary.

Constantin also wasn't panicking, as he still had his trump card—he still had remaining chances to escape into the transfer station.

And he had heard that they were not in a hurry to kill him, maybe he could even extract some information.

But then—

His view of the world was overturned by a single sentence from Zhou Baiyu.

"I'm the pioneer responsible for investigating this area... Hmm, you can call me Stephen Zhou. Can you understand my language?"

Constantin was stunned.

A pioneer?

Damn, what was this person talking about? How could a pioneer be with such a monster?

Although the Corrupted and the Polluted were very different, at their core, both were of the corrupt lineage.

Polluted beings were new gods' creations, whereas Corrupted beings were purer, turned from humans by the Corruption Gu after the fall of the king gods.

But the essence of their aura was actually quite similar.

Constantin was certain that the woman he faced was a powerful being.

So he found it hard to believe that the man before him was a pioneer.

"How could you possibly be a pioneer? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Oh, your reaction is quite interesting. Why, do you think it's that unlikely that I could be a pioneer?"

Zhou Baiyu continued to observe.

Although Constantin's first reaction was to shoot, making an extremely intense response, Zhou Baiyu remained calm, not affected by anger.

Firstly, shooting wouldn't kill a demon-king level being.

Secondly, his instincts told him that this man was not an enemy.

Zhou Baiyu continued to observe Constantin.

"If you're a pioneer, then what's with this... this beautiful lady?"

Constantin clearly felt like a little kitten being choked by fate when he was about to say the word "monster", a fear spreading through his body that made him change his words quickly.

Being kind-hearted can lead to a longer life.

Zhou Baiyu was almost certain that this man who suddenly opened fire was not an enemy.

His eyes signaled Zhang Haoyun. Understanding his look, Zhang Haoyun let go of Constantin.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Constantin began to cough violently. After a while, he finally asked:

"How could a pioneer... have such strength?"

Zhou Baiyu knew what Constantin meant and said:

"We're not your enemies, though the aura you're sensing... might be confusing to you."

Constantin also started to ponder; if the other party was Polluted, he would likely have faced a lethal threat and been forced to escape into the transfer station already.

"You really are a pioneer? And this beautiful lady as well?"

It was the first time Constantin had encountered such a situation. He was 100% certain that this woman was not human.

This man was also suspect; there was a sense about him that Constantin found repulsive.

"I am, she isn't."

Zhou Baiyu was convinced that this man couldn't be a devotee or Corrupted of the new gods, but an ally.

So he began to explain why he and Zhang Haoyun were there.

Even though the personality of the God of Difference and Chaos naturally made people repel him,

under Zhang Haoyun's forceful intimidation, Constantin had no choice but to seriously dismiss this sentiment and listen to Zhou Baiyu.

As they got to know each other, the influence of the God of Difference and Chaos's personality gradually faded.

And with Zhou Baiyu's skills as an orator, he soon clarified the situation.

Constantin was completely disarmed. He sorted through the information and concluded—

A pioneer and a Corrupted had come to investigate a puzzle left by a Polluted.

And the most inconceivable part was... the Corrupted being was utterly obedient to that man.

What kind of bizarre dream was this? Was this a miracle of the God of Hypnosis and Enchantment? It was like tofu grinding against tofu's mother, outrageous to the point of losing all logic.

Do eastern pioneers use magic? Why can they make such powerful creatures so obedient?
