Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

Chapter 301: 147: A Different Mutator



After clicking open the production team, Zhou Baiyu thought he would see many people, but in fact, art, post-production, music, design, planning...

All were done by one person, and this person's name was Fang Xuan.

Zhou Baiyu had initially thought he could gather some information from here, but clearly, while there might truly be information hidden here, it was still very difficult to deduce the value of the information without relating it to the game itself.

Then, Zhou Baiyu, between loading the saved game and starting anew... pondered for about three seconds.

He did not choose to load the saved game.

Although many pioneers had cleared this place before, and one had even achieved an S rating, with history having been anchored, if it were any other challenger coming here, they might be very willing to see if there were other pioneers' saved games.

But clearly, this was a trap. Because the challenge of the pioneer was before everything began.

Thus, in the load game file, it was probably not the pioneer's data at all; it might even belong to the game developers. Choosing not to start from the beginning but from the middle of the game might lead to major crises due to incomplete information.

After cautiously testing the main menu, Zhou Baiyu finally entered the game and chose to start anew.

Although he appeared dismissive of the lower difficulty, Zhou Baiyu approached the game with utmost seriousness, whether it was on a high or low level of difficulty.

The black door had not opened, but the sound of the doorknob turning could be heard.

[Welcome to the fantasy journey. First level. Before the game officially starts, please make your first choice—

If someone in your team must die, who would you choose?

This option will remain confidential, as a personal choice.

Note one: The person with the most votes will encounter a special plot in the first level—where the death rate is relatively high.

Note two: #¥%@#&

Note three: @#&*!=-]

Damn!

This word popped into everyone's mind.

What kind of twisted game is this, making the first choice about whom to eliminate?

Zhou Baiyu was relatively calm, but even the seemingly calmest person among the others, keyed up with madness, couldn't help but curse internally at this moment.

"The designer had us form a team and choose a leader at the outset, then immediately threw out a choice, asking us to pick who most deserves to die..."

Zhou Baiyu stroked his chin.

This was creating a team crisis.

At the same time, he noticed there was a second and third note, but these options had turned into gibberish.

Clearly, the second and third notes were supposed to contain key information, but since they chose the nightmare difficulty, these notes were blocked.

Sima Kaoyu guessed this as well.

Kaoyu said,

"Hey, difficulty causing us to not fully see the information could be fatal. We really shouldn't have chosen the nightmare difficulty..."

At this moment, everyone's minds floated with a dialogue box that needed them to ponder a teammate's name and fill in the name of the "most deserving" person to die.

Kaoyu glanced at Xinkui, Walk Crooked Crazy looked at Xinkui, Charge for Love also glanced at Xinkui.

Xinkui silently lowered his head, his shoulders trembling slightly.

Zhou Baiyu said,

"Fill in my name for all."

The other four people were stunned.

Xinkui said,

"Shouldn't it be... the name of the most useless person?"

Everyone saw this as a heavy choice. The success rate for this area was only thirty percent.

So out of five people, at least one or even two could die.

Possibly, this choice could directly scrap a person.

Logically, they should choose the weakest person. Xinkui had even thought that everyone would write down his own name.

Even Sima Kaoyu, Charge for Love, and Walk Crooked Crazy all thought the same; they believed a team didn't need two Mutators.

However, at this moment, Jiang Xianwu's responsibility inspired Kaoyu internally.

Kaoyu was arrogant and carried a professional sense of superiority because he had more "time" than others.

But at this moment, he discovered the coolness of the team leader's statement, "Fill in my name for all."

He asked himself: if he were the team leader facing such a choice, he would definitely choose Xinkui.

But as a team leader, openly abandoning the weakest player, even though it was the most rational approach, would certainly cause other team members to feel chilly.

This was a rather scheming, heart-chilling choice.

The answer was not difficult, but it could easily affect team morale.

Starting with such a choice made it hard to imagine what would come next.

Kaoyu directly stated the answer:

"Captain, although this can really boost morale, if you were to die... then what would we do? Assuming the death rate is one hundred percent, shouldn't we choose the weakest—"

"Who told you the death rate is one hundred percent?"

Zhou Baiyu calmly interrupted Kaoyu's remark.

Xinkui looked at Zhou Baiyu, overwhelmed with gratitude. He knew that as a Mutator, he should be the weakest and he was not as stellar as teacher Jiang Xianwu.

But to be "voted to death," he felt unwilling inside.

Being saved by someone, a feeling many people hadn't experienced, the joy of escaping from desperate situations, made one thrillingly tremble. At this moment, Xinkui was shaking too much to speak.

Zhou Baiyu said,

"Look closely at the question. The person with the most votes will encounter a special story, the death rate is very high, but it isn't one hundred percent. A captain's duty is not to command, but to take on the most dangerous tasks."
