Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

A conflict that should have ended in a river of blood had already subsided.

Wuxin hadn't expected Zhou Baiyu to actually solve the problem.

The two women, although hostile towards each other, seemed to no longer harbor animosity towards Jiang Xianwu.

Yes, even though I don't love you, I still put my life on the line for you. What right do you have to blame me?

This logic is truly terrifying,

Wuxin felt that Zhou Baiyu was trying out a very new method of being scummy. But perhaps, the next time "Shura's Smile" appeared... he wouldn't have it so easy.

Midel and Zhang Haoyun exchanged glances. The enmity between the two was now set in stone.

Although on the surface they were both friends of Zhou Baiyu, friends who would protect with their lives, it was unfortunate—you shouldn't be a woman.

"Brother, let's go," Zhang Haoyun called out to Zhen Shi, preparing to head to the task assignment location.

Midel then turned to Bai Ling:

"I think, maybe we could work together."

Bai Ling thought, to take down Jiang Xianwu, that would make you my enemy.

Midel was different from Zhang Haoyun after all. She liked Jiang Xianwu, but her life did not revolve solely around him.

She had the demons, along with ambition and desire.

"We come from the same franchise, you should understand, right?"

Bai Ling nodded:

"What are you trying to say to me?"

Midel didn't beat around the bush:

"Seamer... will win, won't he? You must have noticed. A new era is coming."

"..."

Bai Ling had not expected Midel to bring this up.

Observing Bai Ling, Midel, being a succubus, keenly perceived a change in her eyes despite Bai Ling's expressionless face. She continued:

"If the Demon Emperor didn't kill Seamer, then he might never be able to kill Seamer again. I don't know about your past, but I do know one thing, the famous White Witch is a mortal enemy of Seamer."

"No matter how much you expect from Jiang Xianwu, with what you and he currently possess, you won't be able to kill Seamer."

Bai Ling was now intrigued:

"Can you achieve that?"

"Of course not, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend. We could form an alliance, and maybe one day, I might persuade the succubus Demon Emperor to act against Seamer."

Midel said:

"My relationship with Reina is getting better. Or rather, my influence over Reina's thinking is growing."

"Although we are not combat types among our race, Reina has already broken through this limitation, she has managed to compensate her weaknesses to a terrifying extent by certain means."

"So, White Witch, we should be friends, shouldn't we? In the future, when we face Seamer, I hope you can become my reinforcement, so that, in return, I can gain more influence in the presence of Reina."

"Similarly, we will also assist you in thoroughly vanquishing Seamer."

Could the succubus queen do what the Flame Emperor and the Blood Emperor couldn't?

Bai Ling was skeptical.

But she still nodded, as there was no reason to reject such a proposal.

If it were not for the connection with Jiang Xianwu, Midel wouldn't even have the chance to speak in front of the White Witch.

Let alone believe what Midel said.

So Midel also seized the opportunity.

At the same time, she became more convinced that if she wanted to use the White Witch, she had to keep a firm grip on Jiang Xianwu.

"Among the corrupt kind, you're much more pleasant to the eyes than that one covered in eyes," Midel complimented Bai Ling.

Bai Ling sneered internally.

Whether it was Midel or Zhang Haoyun, Bai Ling found both of their intellects lacking.

To deserve to stay by Jiang Xianwu's side, neither was qualified.

"Go help out, clear the underground area. When the monsters arrive, we must be ready to withstand their invasion."

"It's very likely we'll need an underground shelter. Only by surviving this three-day journey of life will we have the right to discuss cooperation, right?"

Midel nodded.

The people of the Cross Shelter began to bustle about.

And in order to withstand the monster invasion, Bai Ling always believed that mere starting equipment—slingshots, corroded wooden swords, hammers, tattered leather armor...

These simplest of equipments, probably couldn't ensure survival. But constructing the Cross Shelter itself also required a lot of manpower.

Bai Ling could only hope—without parallel, Jiang Xianwu, those who ventured out might bring back some good equipment when they open the first teleportation point and return to base.

She hoped for this deeply.

But the pioneering path without parallel was clearly not that smooth.

...

...

To the north of the Cross Shelter, the damp cemetery.

During the early game, everything along the way was low-level zombies.

In theory, even initial equipment should be enough to push through, arming oneself with equipment dropped by monsters while continuously killing them.

Eventually reaching the prison and finding the warden, by then players would have leveled up a bit, mastered a few skills, and possessed decent equipment.

That's the theoretical ideal, or the conventional path.

Without equal, Unconventional Dream, Huan Liuyan, none could use active skills, but each had their own traits.

Professional traits, as well as exclusive personal traits, these characteristics allowed them to either sense the presence of enemies sharply or have a certain perception of elements.

Huan Liuyan's profession was a Mage.

Her Elemental Affinity trait allowed her to exert a greater magical force than an average Mage.

With this advantage, Huan Liuyan became the main force for killing; the moldy low-level Book of Wisdom, casting the most basic Fireball Technique, turned out to be much more powerful than the hacking and slashing of Without Equal and Unconventional Dream.
