Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

Chapter 475: 217: An Uncommon Mutator Hanging Out



"The efficiency of six people is always higher than that of three. Then let us travel together," Zhou Baiyu still highly respected the most powerful pioneer from Advanced World, who was also a super-rich man in the real world.

"We've already finished exploring this town and found a few books, which are largely similar to the 'Dawn of Fear' I know from the game," he continued.

"In short, it's to enhance the immersion of the game by forcefully adding substance to an otherwise weak plot, all pointing to— the Warden."

"The first portal is inside the Black Prison. It is said that some kind of perverse experiment is going on there, but that's all part of the game, really meaningless."

"According to the information I have received—"

Zhou Baiyu reached the crux of the matter:

"If we defeat the Warden, we can defeat the master of the realm."

Tianxia Wu'er furrowed his brow:

"How did you come by this information?"

Zhou Baiyu thought about whether to tell Tianxia Wu'er this, but ultimately, he took a gamble and told part of the truth:

"In a past call-up, I accidentally gained a power, a peculiar new divine perspective. This perspective lets me structure certain things from a perspective similar to that of a game player."

"I can feel this time, the realm was created by someone with abilities similar to mine."

"And a previous call-up that I had cleared indicated— when you clear the game, the call-up ends."

"So it's highly likely that this Mutator opened the realm, and pulled out a game he thought no one could clear."

"The purpose is to kill all of us in the game. But once we find his real body and kill him, the game will end."

"And once we clear the final boss, kill the Warden...his real body will also be seriously damaged, and the realm will collapse."

"These two are interdependent."

These were the insights Zhou Baiyu had received after entering the realm—

Game Failure Condition: Death of oneself.

Game Victory Condition: Defeat the Warden, shatter the realm, or find and defeat the real body.

Tianxia Wu'er hadn't expected Jiang Xianwu to garner such extensive information. How did he get it?

Waking Dream commonly saw Jiang Xianwu obtaining information from bizarre sources.

He had once cared about the sources of this information, but later he stopped fretting. Whatever Jiang Xianwu said, he just believed it.

"This is a game world that, though it appears false everywhere and you can tell it is a game at a glance, feels very real everywhere."

Tianxia Wu'er said:

"How strong is the master of the realm?"

This was a question of concern to everyone. What kind of existence could create such a vast world?

"Demon Emperor level?"

Huan Liuyan also tentatively asked.

Zhou Baiyu shook his head:

"According to the intelligence I have currently, our enemy comes from beyond the boundaries, from outside Longxia."

"Also, the islands were swept up, causing everyone to gather in the central area of the islands."

"But the intelligence I've received earlier states that one of the seven Demon Emperors is on this island."

Everyone was shocked.

Even if they didn't have as much information as Zhou Baiyu, having been pioneers for so long, they at least knew some rumors about the seven Demon Emperors.

At some point, these people even thought that the seven Demon Emperors were their ultimate enemies as pioneers.

Zhou Baiyu's next words made everyone realize that the situation might be far beyond their imagination:

"And that one of the seven Demon Emperors might have already been killed by the master of the realm."

"So, if we think pessimistically, our current enemy is an extremely powerful one... perhaps a being beyond the Demon Emperor level, possibly of the legendary Demon God level?"

"If I am not mistaken, he likely comes from the Pantheon, from beyond the borders."

Pantheon.

Tianxia Wu'er said:

"Where did you get all this information? And the call-ups you cleared before, can you tell which areas they were?"

"Chairman Wu'er, stop worrying about it. The areas I cleared are permanently gone, inaccessible to other pioneers."

Again, Zhou Baiyu had fooled him.

Guang Tongchen chuckled:

"Handling an SSS-level clearance isn't that hard, right, Wu'er? What do you think?"

Suddenly, Tianxia Wu'er felt really confused.

He looked at Jiang Xianwu with a grave expression:

"If it's Demon King level, we don't need to worry at all, but if it's Demon Emperor, we have no chance in a direct fight."

Huan Liuyan, Waking Dream, Tianxia Wu'er, and Guang Tongchen, the four legendary pioneers, were all acutely aware that the pinnacle of Demon King level was their current limit.

And beyond that, the Demon Emperor level, was nearly impossible for third-tier pioneers to handle.

"No, the Mutator is a very special kind, quite different from the corrupt Demon Emperor level."

"Mutators may not be physically powerful but are strong due to the polluting effect. Simply put, the larger the game world and the more content it has, the more powerful the Mutator, but accordingly, the combat power of the Mutator itself might not be at the Demon Emperor level... or even at the Demon God level."

"His real body might actually be relatively weak."

"In the view of the master of the realm, we couldn't possibly clear this game; he didn't fight us with his real body but chose to swallow us into the game world, indicating that exploring this game world and killing the Warden is indeed the ultimate challenge."

Zhou Baiyu's analysis was logical and well-reasoned.

"Of course, the Warden might be the strongest, so even if the master appears in the realm, he must be the second strongest. Neither will be easy to deal with."
