Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

Chapter 374: 175: With alarm but not in danger



Zhou Baiyu nodded earnestly, playing along with the other's act.

"The strongest person," Zhou Baiyu thought, was pure nonsense.

But the next second, a new voice suddenly appeared in Zhou Baiyu's mind—

[Rule Seven—Unknown. This rule will only reveal itself upon contact with the target.]

[Because you have gained the target's recognition, you can now unlock this rule. Rule Seven—A very dangerous entity hides in the corner and is a super passenger on the train. Please try to establish as positive a rapport with the target as possible.]

The Zhou Baiyu before me was like a supporting character in a wish-fulfillment story, thinking to himself, "An existence closest to God? You're not even worthy!"

Then, a hundred thousand soldiers knelt before the man in the black cloak, chanting, "Please, Divine King, come out from seclusion."

Luckily, Zhou Baiyu was always polite, striving to play his part in the performance without being slapped in the face.

Indeed, Zhou Baiyu was shaken when the specific explanation of Rule Seven appeared.

It was almost an official clue.

"So, it looks like Rule Seven could really be true? If Rule Seven is true, then there is a high probability that Rule Eight is also true."

The person before me is purportedly the existence closest to God.

Even though that person's features, seen by the Divine Eye Dustless, seemed impressive, they shouldn't be able to reach the level of a god.

The Demon Emperors, Stitch-body, and Eternal Night, those monsters who had spent so long striving for a goal that seemed infinitely far away, could this man in the black cloak really achieve it more easily than them?

"My time is almost up. On this trip, I visited Port Nation, where I heard about a fellow named Constantin who possesses quite good potential."

"Oh, I've heard of that person too. Indeed, he's very impressive."

Zhou Baiyu was once again stunned.

Constantin?

That's likely the same man from my home, synonymous with envelope liqueur and the decadent man of the wandering god?

Speaking of which, I have been with Constantin for so long, but due to some limitations on both sides, a lot of information couldn't be shared.

I also don't know how strong Constantin is in the Advanced World.

Although Constantin was bluffed by me and surprised that a forerunner from Longxia could control a Demon King-level being in the real world,

it doesn't mean that the forerunners from Longxia are stronger than the Purified Walkers in the Advanced World.

After all, Constantin was one of the first to come into contact with the Pantheon, and as far as I know, the regions outside Longxia are the most twisted, so if Constantin didn't have some skills, he would have likely died long ago.

"Ah, I've vaguely heard of him, a very impressive Purified Walker."

"So you've heard too? How does he compare to Guang Tongchen you mentioned before?" asked the man in the black cloak.

Zhou Baiyu was in a dilemma.

Frankly speaking, both seemed important to him; the man in the black cloak, though powerful and unchallenged by other regular passengers of the carriage...

In essence, the man in the black cloak represented an extraordinary opportunity.

If the club chairman and Constantin met, it might lead to a very impressive development.

After considering, he decided to leave the choice to the man in the black cloak:

"I think highly of both, but my judgment is limited, perhaps you'll need to decide for yourself."

The man in the black cloak nodded.

After all, he could board the train at any time. In previous instances, after holding a knife to the train conductor's neck, he became an untouchable entity on this train.

And through this train, he could go anywhere.

He just needed to provide four tags.

And "Constantin" and "Guang Tongchen," these names are the most precise tags.

Zhou Baiyu also guessed this limitation.

So he further speculated that in the history of version 2.15, if the club chairman were to summon him next time, it might be in version 2.15 or 2.16... he could very likely suddenly encounter the man in the black cloak.

"I'm off. If the person you recommend has sufficient talent, I'll be grateful to you," the man in the black cloak prepared to leave.

Zhou Baiyu suddenly blurted out a question:

"What do you think of my potential?"

The man in the black cloak, already risen to his feet, scrutinized Zhou Baiyu for a while and then shook his head and said:

"Difference and chaos imply instability. How could I know whether your pinnacle state isn't just a fluke, a brief moment of exceptional luck?"

Zhou Baiyu mulled over the meaning of these words.

To put it simply, the powers granted to him by the god of gamblers had a very high ceiling, but in the eyes of the man in the black cloak, the lower limit was also quite exaggerated.

The man in the black cloak didn't seem to want to pass his skills on to someone who relied too much on luck.

Zhou Baiyu didn't expect the other to see through him with just one glance.

The man in the black cloak didn't elaborate further. He stood up and walked toward another carriage.

All the train's rules seemed to mean nothing to him.

Zhou Baiyu asked one last question:

"Senior, could you tell me your name?"

The figure of the man in the black cloak paused for a moment before it was gradually submerged in the darkness; he did not respond to Zhou Baiyu.

The regulations concerning Rule Seven and Rule Eight have now been temporarily removed.

And as the man in the black cloak disappeared, the entire carriage took on an eerie feeling.

Babies laughed with joy.

The train attendants pushing trolleys, called out louder than before.

The old lady's smile became even more kindly.

The child holding a lollipop bit fiercely into the candy and headed toward Huang Miu.

At that moment, Zhou Baiyu finally realized "limitations" had been lifted.

The man in the black cloak seemed to be a switch that kept everyone in check.

Now that he was about to reach his destination, all the rule-abiding passengers on the train began to stir and get excited.

"Big brother, can you play a game with me?"
