Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

"Jiang Xianwu, I don't care what you're planning to do, but you better behave on the day they arrive,"

This was a very well-meant warning. To deceive the Endless Night, one naturally has to pose as a completely non-resistant corpse under its minions.

Zhou Baiyu nodded his head.

Luo Hui's value certainly wasn't just that, for he was a man highly adept at observing.

He revealed a few pieces of information.

The first piece of information immediately piqued Zhou Baiyu's interest.

"There's a strange fellow, ranting like a madman, who has come here. His light is weak, but it's definitely of the kind that would be tormented by nightmares,"

"But his light has always been like that, sometimes dimming, sometimes disappearing. I checked using the skills of the Sky Eye... and found out the information was about a Reverser."

"Do you know about the Reverser?"

Zhou Baiyu did indeed know. His heart raced. Could it be Zhou Shou?

Previously, upon seeing the words 'Endless Night', he had thought of Zhou Shou. At that time, Zhou Baiyu felt that he might encounter Zhou Shou.

Now, with Luo Hui putting it this way, he became even more convinced that this strange madman was probably Zhou Shou.

"But you better not go looking for him. The people here say that he has always been trapped in the Sea of Night. A night demon once came here to warn everyone not to provoke him."

"It seems his identity is very special, and his body harbors a very special energy. The gods are interested in it."

"I watched closely, and the light from this person is not enough to allow us to leave. His specialness likely has something to do with the demons, but it's not the kind that would change our current situations."

It was Zhou Shou.

Zhou Baiyu became more certain.

He suddenly thought... Zhou Shou might rely on some extremely twisted traits that allow him to continually struggle within the Sea of Night.

Thus, the night demon has permanently imprisoned Zhou Shou in a dream within a dream.

In the dreamscapes of the night demon, Zhou Shou is definitely a powerful being, but no matter how strong, he is still just a plaything of the Endless Night.

But what if Zhou Shou woke up?

Zhou Baiyu silently noted down this clue. Although he was not sure if it would be useful, right now, he had no cards to play. In such a situation, he could only take whatever came his way.

The second piece of information related to a predecessor.

"There's a predecessor here, a Gatherer. He is the inheritor of the God of Cause and Effect and Destiny, named Uxin."

"This person is easy to talk to—you have that bed, and after one night, he will certainly listen to you. He might be of help to you."

"There's a saying, an unreliable Gatherer and an unreliable Mutator might be the strongest professional combination."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Baiyu couldn't help but ask:

"Why wouldn't the Gatherer be unreliable?"

"Gatherers, like Spies, count as a support profession. But not purely, a few Gatherers can fight, and their positioning... is also not very clear. Quite similar to you Mutators."

"But slightly more reliable than Mutators, Gatherers can gather various fates. Changing someone's luck temporarily, some fates might even compare to traits."

"However, fate is different for each person... even if it's just for a short time, some fates might not align with your destiny, causing the fate to mutate."

"Gatherer Uxin often says only a strong protagonist with a fate like Long Aotian might possibly leave from the dark night."

Feels like an official mockery, Zhou Baiyu thought to himself.

He roughly understood Luo Hui's point.

The Gatherer being the inheritor of the God of Cause and Effect and Destiny, his supporting ability is to gather fates for others, obtaining temporary destinies.

But some fates might be quite fierce, and not everyone can withstand them.

Zhou Baiyu found this indeed to be a talent:

"Are you also from the Future Gate?"

"Yes, the inheritors of both the Time and Space God and the God of Cause and Effect and Destiny are very rare."

Indeed, both time and fate are rare, aren't they?

After this conversation, Zhou Baiyu suddenly realized that if he possessed a fate that could boost his luck...

Perhaps he could turn some unsolvable situations into solvable ones.

...

...

Thinking about it, he acted without delay.

That very afternoon after receiving the information, he met with Gatherer Uxin.

Apart from Luo Hui who was rather cold, whether it was Uxin or Xinkui, they were actually quite easy to talk to.

Of course, the people here lacked personality.

Everyone, living in such an environment for a few years like still water, seemed to have nothing left but a shell, their attitudes, personalities, special characteristics, all seemed to have disappeared.

Just like the night, where the darkness is just darkness, and nothing more.

The reaction of Uxin upon meeting Zhou Baiyu was almost the same as that of Xinkui and Luo Hui.

So the process was the same, Zhou Baiyu used one move, one bed to directly subdue Gatherer Uxin.

Thus, their conversation also unfolded.

"Your palm lines are good, you are someone who can withstand either very unfortunate or very fortunate fates,"

"I can help you gather fates, but there are a few things I need to clarify."

"First, the fates might not be fortunate, and my energy is very limited. I can only craft a fate once every three days, and while my level of crafting means the interval between crafting is three days, the effect might only last a day... and even some powerful fates might not even last a day. Come see me tomorrow, I'll craft a fate then."

"Second, do not use the fates for bad purposes. For instance, crafting a fate that enhances romantic luck might greatly increase your attractiveness to women... or even men."
