Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

Is there no second under heaven?

Karlando murmured this name. Even in version 2.49, the barriers between the kingdoms have not been eliminated.

Karlando didn't know that, by that time, the figure known as "No Second Under Heaven" had already become a famous leader of the forerunners in the Advanced World.

So, in his view, statements like "I definitely won't die in the current version" seemed like nothing more than bravado.

"Come on, I'll give you a chance to perform, let you strike first."

"No Second Under Heaven, let me see the strength of you Advanced World forerunners within this cage where I rule, struggle all you want."

Karlando's demeanor became elegant, as if he were watching a variety show.

No Second Under Heaven had a faint feeling.

This guy with the purple name might just be, as Jiang Xianwu analyzed, the master of the gaming world, the creator of this world.

To lead everyone out of here, there were only two ways.

One was to play through the game, killing the warden. This would cause immense damage to Karlando.

The other was to defeat the game's creator, thereby dismantling the game.

During the process where the warden was killing Jiang Xianwu, if he could kill Karlando first, then the game would end, and he would save Jiang Xianwu's life.

During the process where Karlando was killing him, if Jiang Xianwu could kill the warden first, then the game would also end, and Jiang Xianwu would save his life.

This counted as a kind of "healthy competition" with Jiang Xianwu.

He originally thought that it should have been Guang Tongchen standing in this position.

No Second Under Heaven drew out his dagger.

Karlando slightly frowned, feeling that if this man before him didn't genuinely have some ability, then he must be deranged.

Such a small dagger, plain equipment, simply couldn't possibly cause him any harm—

Karlando suddenly widened his eyes. Just as he was about to lose interest in No Second Under Heaven, he witnessed a bizarre scene.

No Second Under Heaven didn't use the dagger as a weapon against his enemy but instead flipped the handle and pointed it towards himself.

Karlando suddenly thought of something, instinctively feeling a sense of crisis.

Feeling his vitality rapidly diminishing, No Second Under Heaven's eyes became unexpectedly brighter.

"So, it's a passive skill."

In this game world, although Karlando sealed many of the active skills of various classes, passive skills could still be used.

No Second Under Heaven's stab toward his heart was almost akin to suicide.

But this stab did not take No Second Under Heaven's life.

When his heart was pierced and he was on the brink of death, his vitality didn't zero out but rather surged unexpectedly.

By the time Karlando tried to intervene, it was already too late; his speed had become drastically slower.

Or rather, the speed of No Second Under Heaven had increased.

...

...

The names in the Advanced World are mostly those chosen during the preliminary trials and cannot be changed.

This is also a rule, but it is unclear which deity turned into this rule after death.

Interestingly enough, during the preliminary trials, everyone's scenarios are different, but they all go through a scene where they are asked their name.

However, the name "No Second Under Heaven" was not chosen by him.

This rather dramatic and powerful name was given by the person who nearly killed him.

Version 1.57. Unknown region, Corruption Level B, and as of now, the clearance rate of that area is zero.

In the preliminary trials, aside from Jiang Xianwu, probably the version No Second Under Heaven went through was the latest.

No Second Under Heaven's body was subjected to tremendous torture.

All over his body, there was not a single piece of unharmed flesh.

"Spare me! Spare me! I'll kneel to you, do anything you want if you just spare me!"

"After being tortured to this extent, you still beg for mercy? Don't you consider resisting? "

At that moment, he was kneeling on the ground, or rather, at that time, he was not yet called No Second Under Heaven; he was another world's business magnate, Jiang Zongheng.

Jiang Zongheng's life in the real world would definitely be textbook for a dominant CEO.

He was truly a giant who controlled the fates of many companies with a single word.

But this legendary figure, at that moment, was covered in dust, his corners filled with saliva, his body bloody, without a piece of unharmed flesh.

The initial abilities of the Time Spirit, facing the current enemy, were utterly meaningless.

No one would expect that the domineering, high and mighty Jiang Zongheng would be in such a state now.

Groveling, humbly begging for mercy.

This massive contrast was unbelievable.

"Oh, I... really hate people who lack backbone. You kneeling there and begging like a dog disgusts me! Hahaha...hahahahaha!"

Without seeing the speaker, Jiang Zongheng's head was very low.

So low that he could only see the dust mixed with blood on the ground. It was like his forehead was kissing the ground, that kind of extremely humble posture.

After being tortured for a full six hours, Jiang Zongheng had resisted but eventually capitulated.

Now, listening to the other's words, there was only indifference in his eyes.

Yes, absolute indifference.

No fear or anxiety, no rage from the humiliation, nor the sadness of impending death.

He kept his head very low, partly to let the other feel his determination to survive and partly to prevent the other from seeing the rationality in his eyes.

After all, he wasn't Zhou Baiyu; his acting wasn't flawless.

For someone accustomed to dominance, to suddenly play an ant trampled underfoot…

It still required some adjustment.

Jiang Zongheng was incredibly cold, yet his tone still carried a pleading whimper.
