Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

```

An unknown era.

If the method of time recording by predecessors were to be applied, this would be the end point of versions—Version 2.49.

In this version, the gods still existed in their rule-based forms.

They remained shrouded in mystery, still a puzzle waiting to be explored by humans, demons, and corrupted beings.

The intermediaries still guarded the transfer stations at unknown coordinates.

The human population had greatly increased, but this was all because of the Lust Demons of the nine major demon clans.

The Lust Demons advocated for accelerating the breeding speed of captive creatures even further.

The increase in numbers was merely to allow the lower demons to initially realize "lifting out of poverty" and afford to eat meat.

Midel, the alluring demon noble who once tried to promote the demonic policy of "making good use of humans," was stripped of her status and exiled from the Corruption Realm by the alluring demon royal family.

But Midel did not falter; on the contrary, she even teamed up with corrupted human kinds to form a wandering force.

The plight of humans was becoming increasingly worrying. However, the pioneers gradually showed resilience.

A very small number of pioneers had even surpassed their mentors—the intermediaries—and were moving from the fourth to the fifth stage.

And at the fifth stage, they were basically able to contend with the supreme beings of the demon gods—the Seven Demon Emperors.

The world was no longer just under the control of the seven major demon leaders.

Within the corrupted, there were also super existences with power close to that of demon gods, such as seamstress demon lords and white witches.

Some were demon hunters, some had chaotic stands, others dominated a region, and even had a chance to become the Eighth Demon Emperor.

In short, Version 2.49 was a highly chaotic version marked by the division of power among multiple warlords.

And what's worth mentioning the most in this version is that the Seven Demon Emperors finally came up with a means to counteract the "pioneers"—

The Reverser.

If pioneers took a step forward, they would occasionally go to a random future version's area by chance.

Then, the Reverser, would take a step backward, periodically going to a random past version's area by chance.

It's worth noting that whether it be pioneers, different walkers, or Reversers, they could only be human.

The so-called Demon Emperors, corrupted kinds, demons, monsters... none could bypass the rule of time, except for humans.

For the Seven Demon Emperors, even opening the path of reversal was extremely difficult, and although they successfully created Reversers, they couldn't compare in number to the massive community of "pioneers."

It seemed to be some kind of limitation from the "God of Time." The Seven Demon Emperors encountered a default "barrier."

There could only be three Reversers.

Unless one died, it was impossible to create a new Reverser. And even when one died, it would take quite a long time to add another.

But for the Seven Demon Emperors, this was already a significant breakthrough in countering the pioneers.

They believed that the humans carefully cultivated in Version 2.49, once they went to past versions, would be like a tiger entering a flock of sheep!

The Seven Demon Emperors were quite confident that the three humans they nurtured could continuously go back to the past and assassinate those pioneer experts who had not yet grown.

Linx Yang City.

Zhou Baiyu walked on the street. Since the true identity of the snow demon had been exposed, he now took on the responsibility of going out to procure food.

He was on his way to the Fifth People's Hospital of Linx Yang City.

In his memory, Zhou Baiyu had been to the Fifth People's Hospital once. He always felt that there were many differences between the "Hanging Corpse Hospital" and the "Fifth People's Hospital."

So he decided to personally check out the Fifth People's Hospital.

If necessary, he could even visit every hospital during these days.

However, while walking on the road, Zhou Baiyu noticed two things.

The first thing was that now... he really had a strong killing aura.

The original Zhou Baiyu had a handsome and refined appearance, although not as enchanting as Jiang Xianwu. He had well-proportioned facial features and a smile that felt like a spring breeze.

```

With a pleasant voice, being a central air-conditioning-like jerk is more than enough.

But the current Zhou Baiyu, despite having all the above advantages unchanged, somehow makes people afraid to get close.

While walking on the commercial street, a dog owner passed by with his Shiba Inu.

As a result, the Shiba Inu, originally a fierce dog, got so frightened when it saw Zhou Baiyu that it hugged its owner's leg.

The bespectacled otaku dog owner was puzzled, "Chai Gengxin, why aren't you walking?"

This was the first time the otaku dog owner had ever seen his dog show such fear.

Zhou Baiyu originally thought it was a coincidence.

But later he realized...

In such a dense crowd, there was not a single person near him.

More and more gazes fell upon Zhou Baiyu, but he, like a cleaning master named Dong Xing crow standing on Guan Erye's table, emanated an aura of a ferocious villain.

Fortunately, his expression was amiable, or else if he wore a fierce look, he could probably scare someone into calling the police on the spot.

The powerful aura made Zhou Baiyu seem like a villain.

"Now I'm in trouble... I'm no different from Kitano Seiichiro."

The special trait "Aura of the God of Difference and Chaos" made Zhou Baiyu think he must look quite fearsome.

After all, he even scared a dog.

But soon, he realized he had underestimated the complexity of this aura.

Because before long, he also saw a look of disgust on the faces of young, beautiful women.

Zhou Baiyu's fashion sense was always pretty average, neither elegant enough to impress nor uncomfortable enough to cause unease. Plus, he always liked to be clean.

But in the eyes of these girls, he seemed like the kind of loser who hadn't bathed in half a year, wore underpants with yellowed crotches, and had hair like a bird's nest...

And that wasn't all.

Some people thought Zhou Baiyu was fierce, some thought he was a loser, others thought he was treacherous, sleazy...

"Aura of the God of Difference and Chaos" was full of randomness.

This trait truly made Zhou Baiyu a man of a thousand faces.

Every face was negative.

"The good news is, I no longer have to deliberately uglify myself during blind dates."

"The bad news is, I might really end up single for life."

At that moment, Zhou Baiyu mentally cursed that damn God of Gamblers.

But every coin has two sides, what is gained is often lost, and what is sacrificed will be compensated.

"If my natural impression among humans is this poor... what kind of first impression would I make in the eyes of monsters and corrupt beings?"

The more negative my image among humans, the more goodwill I would garner from monsters in the Preceding World...

To the people of the original world, I appear ugly, fierce, sleazy.

But to the people of the Preceding World, perhaps I'm bathed in holy light.

Thinking this, Zhou Baiyu felt somewhat calmer.

"Thankfully, this world has good public security, and the citizens have a decent sense of the law, so at least I won't be beaten up while walking down the street."

Zhou Baiyu gradually came to accept the situation. That was the first thing, a minor issue.

The second thing, however, was a major issue.

An emergency broadcast suddenly interrupted the TV commercial on the giant screen of a building on the commercial street:

"The man in question is burly, estimated to be over one meter ninety in height, and is carrying a large metal sword. He is currently being pursued by the police, who warn that the individual is extremely dangerous! According to clues from the crime scene, the man is about to cross the Jing-Lin border, heading into the territory of Linxiang City!"

In the TV commercial, only a side profile of the man was shown.

But Zhou Baiyu instantly recognized who the man was as he stared at the electronic screen, utterly shocked:

"How is this possible... How could my younger brother appear in this era?"
