Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

"Pioneers are supposed to create a better future for humanity, right? If you're faced with a choice between exploring alone with almost no chance of success, or sacrificing a few to gain a possibility… I hope you will choose the latter. In fact, you are indeed that kind of person."

Lin saw right through Zhou Baiyu.

Zhou Baiyu mulled over her words for a long time before nodding:

"I understand, just one thing, if in the Advanced World, beyond Long Xia, the Polluters... are very powerful, if the pioneers are at a complete disadvantage..."

"Then everyone is on a battlefield, doesn't the pioneer's disadvantage remain unchanged?"

Lin shook her head and said:

"First, you have encountered the enemies you will face in the future ahead of time and are aware of the gap. As long as someone survives and returns, they can inform everyone about what happened through strategies."

"Second, the Corrupted and Polluters are not necessarily antagonistic. The content of this draft is unknown, maybe, the Demons, Corrupted, and Polluters will become competitors, then wouldn't you benefit as the third party?"

"Lastly… our God indeed likes to place mice in an elephant's cage, but it always creates a new race track for the mouse and the elephant."

"How do you know, in the new race track, that humans will be at a disadvantage? You must have also participated in those drafts where the fighting power becomes secondary under the influence of the rules, right?"

Zhou Baiyu thought about it and realized it was true.

On the Strange Train, as well as the evil life of Fang Xuan he had experienced before...

Actually, these drafts were heavily influenced by powerful rules, making their own combat power less important.

If in the upcoming survival on the deserted island... there are also some unique rules—

If humans utilize these rules well, pioneers might be able to challenge higher levels and even win!

With this thought, Zhou Baiyu got excited.

Although the guilt was still there, like Lin said, Zhou Baiyu was good at making choices.

Sacrificing a few for the benefit of the many was something he could indeed do.

"Get ready, you don't have much time left on your countdown."

Only a few hours remained until he officially entered the grand melee.

In the voices of the pioneers, there was chaos.

"This is ridiculous, the draft I originally received suddenly doesn't count anymore, and I got a new draft telling me to team up with other pioneers to form a trio..."

"Add one, I'm in the same situation."

"Add two, a second-degree Beast Tamer, looking for a team."

"I am a first-degree Time Spirit, if anyone is interested in teaming up, message me privately with the achievements and titles you've earned."

"A first-degree Mutator desperately seeking a team to take me in! Don't reject a Mutator!"

Zhou Baiyu could only say that the voice of the pioneers was now very authentic.

Other professions, normally seeking to form teams, while strong professions like Time Spirits had the privilege of choosing their teammates.

As for Mutators rejecting Mutators, it was just like the internet, where the poor look down on other poor people.

But regardless, Zhou Baiyu had already teamed up with the Corrupted Zhang Haoyun and Corrupted Zhen Shi.

He was paying attention to the voice of the pioneers just to see how wide this draft's range was, how absurd it could get.

"My original mission was simpler, sigh, but it got replaced by a new draft, this time I'm afraid it's more likely to die than to survive," said a pioneer.

"The guy above, I actually have to thank this draft. It forcefully halted my current draft. I thought I was definitely dead, but then I was suddenly transferred back to the transfer station!"

Seeing this comment, Zhou Baiyu was shocked, he hadn't expected such a situation…

New drafts could override those already participating. Those currently participating will have their ongoing drafts forcibly interrupted.

This was something Zhou Baiyu had never considered.

"I wonder if Constantin and the others have received a draft invitation. The chaos caused by the God of Games and Entertainment… it's truly terrifying. This is indeed a chaotic nuclear bomb."

...

...

Not long ago, on the snowy plains of Ogorlan.

Constantin swung his sharp scythe, this man who appeared so decadent in the real world, now seemed as menacing as Death himself.

The scythe instantly traced a cold gleam.

The Polluters of the god of hunger and poverty, decapitated.

"That was close, that was close, Neo, next we just need to extract his Divine Imprint, and this draft will—"

Before he could finish, Constantin suddenly vanished.

The dark-skinned Neo became instantly alert:

"Hey, Constantin! What the hell is going on? Where are you?"

Neo didn't know that Constantin had already returned to the transfer station.

As someone who was not selected, Neo was completely unaware—

That the entire Advanced World had already plunged into complete chaos.

...

...

At the other end of the Dragon Summer realm, in one of the great halls of the Pantheon base, Karlando, who was reading, suddenly furrowed his brow.

He closed the book titled "Excerpts from the God of Games and Entertainment."

As one of the supreme authorities of the Pantheon, he was puzzled by the information that had suddenly arrived in his mind.

Karlando stood up and looked toward his newly-worshipped deity—the God of Games and Entertainment.

"Great God, is this your game? This time, will I also be a participant in your game?"

Of course, the statue of the deity would not speak.

All this was just in the thoughts of Karlando.

As a supreme authority of the Pantheon and a super Polluter, he knew much about the Purifiers.

After all, he had dealt with quite a few Purifiers before.

He knew what "Conscription" meant.

What Karlando didn't expect was that such an occurrence, usually limited to Purifiers, had now happened to him.

It made him feel as though he had received an invitation to a game.

Thus, he suspected that this was the handiwork of his new deity.

But it seemed... not quite right.

"It seems that there are many participants in this conscription. I wonder if I will encounter a new potential follower for the God of Games and Entertainment."

"If this is your will, I will play this game well and make it as splendid as you expect."

Karlando said this very devoutly to the statue of the God of Games and Entertainment.

Meanwhile, Karlando noticed the details of the conscription.

"I wonder which part of the sea islands it will be... If it's within the Dragon Summer realm, that would be most intriguing."

Karlando turned and walked toward the exit of the hall.

Unlike others who were confused, Karlando loved games, loved participating in them, and enjoyed turning others into players.

This conscription was, for him, an interesting invitation.

Now, he still needed two teammates.

...

...

Corruptor, Polluters, Demon Tribe, Pioneers, Purifiers...

All factions were about to be drawn into a battlefield by a massive mutation.

At that moment, the entire world was in panic.

To a few intermediaries, this scenario seemed somewhat familiar.

In the voice of the Pioneers, on the channel of the intermediaries, Mo Sangyu said:

"Doesn't this resemble a battle of the gods, a Pantheon World Edition? Or perhaps, a battle of the gods without any gods."

"However, this seems to be just the first one; who knows if there will be more of these conscription mutations."

"Lin, you just asked me if I knew about ultra-dimensional mutations, this incident, it doesn't have anything to do with that, right?"

Of course, it was related.

However, Lin did not reveal this; she adamantly denied it:

"I just had a dream, dreamed about what Mel once mentioned to me, I think this dream was not simple, as you know, it's hard for us to dream."

"As for why a conscription error suddenly happened, causing so many people to be involved, I don't know, and obviously, it has nothing to do with us, Mutators."

Although Lin comforted Zhou Baiyu, believing that this was a good opportunity for reshuffling.

But if—

The Pioneers paid a heavy price in the conscription, then the anger of the Pioneers and the intermediaries would inevitably be unleashed.

Lin did not wish for Zhou Baiyu to be the one bearing this wrath.

Essentially, she and Zhou Baiyu were the same type of people.

They were the kind who... for the ideal results in their hearts, could sacrifice a lot.

Therefore, Lin didn't hesitate at all nor show any signs of pretense as she covered for Zhou Baiyu.

Of course, deep down, she was looking forward to Zhou Baiyu's impressive performance in this sudden "battle of the gods without gods."

"That would be good; I will find a way to clarify the reasons for this conscription issue. Perhaps during the conscription, by spying, we might find the answer."

"Now, all we can do is wait for the countdown to end and wait for the chaos of the battle to begin."

As Mo Sangyu said this, Lin and the other intermediaries tacitly checked the time.

Only a few minutes remained until the countdown ended, and the great chaos began.

(Sent this first, suddenly too sleepy.)
