Chapter 463: 212: Bored, I want to see blood flow like a river.
"Wait, wait a moment, you are—are you Jiang Xianwu!"
Just as Jiang Xianwu and others were about to head to the bottom of the deep pit, a Mutator called out to Jiang Xianwu.
Jiang Xianwu had already noticed that on the other end of the Corruption Tentacles, a few people were patrolling.
All of them were Mutators.
"It's me, and you are?"
"Oh, we're the ones appointed by the president of Peerless to patrol here, to inform you of what's happening below."
After a brief exchange with the Mutators, they explained the situation thoroughly.
Zhou Baiyu and the others also understood that a vast domain was unfolding.
Since the combat abilities of Mutators were low, and they could potentially have a negative effect on the team...
Peerless had removed all Mutators from the team.
This also meant that in the gaming realm, the only profession that could use active skills was not participating.
This wasn't because Peerless was foolish but because objective data had consistently shown that Mutators were really just for fun in the recruitment.
Zhou Baiyu was the exception.
Of course, the main point was that in the domain of the God of Games and Entertainment, all active skills of other professions could be sealed, but it could not seal the active skills of Mutators... This piece of intelligence was unknown to the entire vanguard team.
Zhou Baiyu was certainly not an ordinary Mutator; he was the only third-order demon Mutator at this stage. He definitely had to go deeper.
Upon hearing that the reflections in the heart mirror seemed to indicate that people inside the domain had entered some sort of game world,
Zhou Baiyu's expression grew grave.
This familiar sensation made him realize that this might be related to the "God of Games and Entertainment."
"Could it be some high-ranking follower?" he pondered more the possibility arose.
"Should we continue to go down?" Xue Yao asked.
"We need to go down."
Zhou Baiyu did not hesitate. Having also possessed the power of the God of Games and Entertainment, he had already seen an interesting note.
[Dread Dawn Challenge, difficulty S-level. Upon successful completion, the mark will be enhanced.]
The mark referred to the handle mark.
The power of the God of Games and Entertainment embedded within Zhou Baiyu.
During the War of the Gods, the God of Games and Entertainment and the God of Difference and Chaos were adversaries.
Nobody might have imagined that the powers of such two gods would appear in the same human.
But compared to that powerful follower below who could open a gaming domain on his own, Zhou Baiyu was still too weak.
His power of the "God of Games and Entertainment" could only see some basic gamified data.
He could occasionally trigger a quest with someone, but that was all.
Physical values, moral values—these data Zhou Baiyu later found did not provide much information and were not of great reference value.
So, to further obtain more power from the God of Games and Entertainment, he needed to continuously use this new system.
Now, Zhou Baiyu finally saw something different.
"If I can complete this game, I should be able to advance... Would this advancement further enhance my God of Games and Entertainment system?"
Although there seemed to be many crises below, Zhou Baiyu was ready.
Wu Xin saw the last piece of the puzzle:
"This game... it's going to be a bloodbath. Old Zhou, it's your fate, so I won't persuade you further."
Wu Xin had shifted from being initially heart-heavy to a spectator.
He saw the final fate puzzle below; that smiling Asura's fate being completed.
But since he couldn't prevent it, he might as well enjoy it.
Watching a scumbag get blown apart is also a form of justice.
Zhou Baiyu, together with Guang Tongchen, Zhang Haoyun, and Midel, set the course.
The group, having no objections, all headed towards the deep pit.
...
...
Inside Karlando's domain.
Zhou Baiyu, along with Guang Tongchen and others, all appeared inside the Cross Base within the domain.
Seeing a few new faces, a designated person began to assign tasks and explain the situation to the newcomers.
Though the main force had only entered the game about an hour ago, it was already well-organized.
For Bai Ling, all of this was a minor issue. The crowd she actually managed was much larger than the well-trained pioneers of the Cross Base.
Moreover, they were just a bunch of ordinary people; managing such people to avoid the Seamer was much harder than the current situation.
When Zhou Baiyu and the others arrived, Bai Ling just glanced at them and didn't pay further attention, assigning others to welcome them because Zhou Baiyu had altered his appearance.
He was indeed afraid.
But Zhou Baiyu keenly noticed Bai Ling.
Even though everyone in the game world had changed clothes and appearances, Zhou Baiyu could recognize some distinctive items.
Like—a wristwatch.
This moment was indeed poignant; he had never expected to encounter that helpless little girl in such a version, among a Mutator recruitment.
In the Memory Palace, to date, there were only Zhou Shou, Midel, and Bai Ling...
This meant that these three people played a significant role for him.
Even though Zhou Baiyu later encountered Dr. A's granddaughter, met many other Corruption species, pioneers...
But in that 'gacha' pool, still, only these three existed.
Yet he now dared not recognize her.
Instantly, Zhou Baiyu analyzed that Bai Ling was acting as some decision-maker here, "from within."
So Peerless was likely "from outside."
He was somewhat surprised. Peerless actually trusted the survival base... to be managed by a Corruption species?
