Chapter 166: 114: Endless Night_4
A series of questions emerged in Constantin's mind. At the same time, people always can't help but compare—
My assistant is Nina, although the girl is good at handling things, also adept at helping to organize my internal affairs, and occasionally can provide some inspiration for solving cases—
But what about others? Their assistant is a Demon Lord level.
Although Constantin had indeed accepted the fact that Stephen Zhou was a forerunner, he was still astonished by Zhou's strength.
"You forerunners... all make friends with Demon Lord levels!?"
Constantin knew all too well how much help a Demon Lord level, if siding with humans, could bring when purging various "pollutions" and "corruptions" later on.
He now figured out how Dick must have died.
Something he might have to fight desperately to achieve, but forerunners here just needed to greet their Demon Lord level friend.
Despite continuously calming his emotions, Constantin still felt... this was too much like cheating.
"No, it's just me who is like this. I am a special case. I've told you very sincerely, now it's your turn to tell us, your purpose, who you are. And what you know."
Only I am like this, this made Constantin feel slightly better.
But he admired this Stephen Zhou even more for being able to "tame" a Demon Lord level.
Zhou Baiyu sensed Constantin's amazement. Who doesn't love displaying their holiness before others?
If Zhang Haoyun weren't here, he would have disclosed his powerful connections in the Advanced World in a casual and understated tone.
To intimidate Constantin properly, to show off fiercely.
But with Zhang Haoyun present, he must hide his impressive achievements in the Advanced World from her.
Zhou Baiyu thought it over, as long as he could keep it secret, there probably wouldn't be any problems.
After all, as Dr. A's notes say, these are two different worlds.
So Zhang Haoyun absolutely couldn't appear together with Midel... right?
For some reason, when he thought about it, he suddenly shivered.
Impossible, absolutely impossible! No matter what, this seems to be a situation even more terrifying than facing a Demon Lord level.
Shaking his head, Zhou Baiyu said:
"Tell me why you are here."
Constantin began to explain everything.
Zhou Baiyu listened very seriously, and he noticed that there wasn't the sign of the inverted cross on Constantin's neck.
This couldn't prove anything, but it could at least attest that Constantin was different from Dick.
As Constantin continued to recount, combined with Zhou Baiyu's questions, and with Zhang Haoyun present, forcing Constantin to disclose everything, soon—
Zhou Baiyu came to understand the system of the new gods.
As expected, everything was as he had guessed, the new gods weren't absolutely "evil".
There were powers that aimed to purify pollution among them.
"Purifiers, is it... I see, I think I understand now. Then let's properly introduce ourselves; my name is Zhou Baiyu, a Mutator among the forerunners."
Constantin shrugged his shoulders, saying amiably:
"Constantin, a follower of the God of Liquor and Waywardness, a third-tier Purifier."
A third-tier Purifier meant that Constantin had three imprint grids. At most, he could worship three different new gods.
Zhou Baiyu held him in high regard; despite being restrained by Zhang Haoyun, it was clear that this man had courage, strength, judgment, and reaction speed.
"We share the same goal, and the clue I can provide is— if this place wasn't caused by your friend, then it's likely caused by 'followers of the God of Plagiarism and Duplication'."
Constantin furrowed his brow, continuing to say:
"He's not here."
"Yes, there's no one else here."
By Constantin's account, Zhou Baiyu knew the enemy he might face in the future—
The All Gods Association.
And the followers of the God of Plagiarism and Duplication could directly duplicate the abilities of their opponents.
"This guy is really scheming, duplicating abilities at the place where the black lotus outbreak happened, directly misleading you. I was almost misled too. When I saw your friend release bugs, I couldn't help but shoot."
Just related to bugs, just with the scent of the corruption kind on him, just appearing here.
Various coincidences, it was normal for Constantin to be misled.
Zhou Baiyu said:
"Have you always been acting alone?"
"The work I do... normal people can't accept it. I have a little assistant, very brave. But that's it," explained Constantin.
Zhou Baiyu felt somewhat regretful.
He didn't know if it was the effect of those shoes he put on.
But now he felt that he always seemed to easily get involved in various incidents.
"Constantin, how about joining me?"
Constantin was quite willing, after all, this young man with clear eyes and handsome features... had a Demon Lord level at his disposal.
"The situation is like this now, and as you said, members of the All Gods Association are showing up in the real world and continually converging towards Linxiang City."
"We have a common enemy, so why not choose to cooperate?"
"Forerunners and Purifiers can't break regional restrictions and cooperate together in the Advanced World, but the real world doesn't have such restrictions."
"If possible, I hope that we can join forces, not only to wipe out the strange tales of Linxiang City but also to exchange some information that can be disclosed after the recruitment ends."
Zhou Baiyu suggested earnestly.
Because he tamed a Demon Lord level, Constantin's attitude toward Zhou Baiyu greatly changed.
Once the goodwill reached a certain level, the attribute of the God of Difference and Chaos would no longer take effect.
