Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

The duel between Karlando and Tongchen began.

In everyone's eyes, the reason why only Tongchen could match Guang Tongchen's speed was mainly because speed is the measure of time in motion.

And his time was different from everyone else's.

Countless avatars of Karlando surrounded Tongchen.

But to Tongchen, these avatars were merely part of the scenery.

"According to the previous test, the effectiveness of rock-paper-scissors requires the touch between the true bodies."

"Even if these avatars touch me, they won't—"

The moment this thought flashed through Tongchen's mind, an avatar charged straight into his domain.

Normally fearless, Tongchen just glanced at the avatar, and space-time around him began to solidify.

The avatar's speed slowed down increasingly, and Tongchen calmly prepared to raise his hand, ready to kill this avatar.

But just as he was about to touch the avatar, Tongchen abruptly broke out in a cold sweat.

As a top fighter, that innate talent for avoiding death told him...

He must not touch this avatar.

The next second, the avatar disappeared, and another appeared not far from Tongchen's side.

"Such sharp perception. If I don't kill you today, you'll become an endless problem in the future."

Karlando's expression in the Drakhan language was very precise.

Tongchen also realized:

"The true body can swap places with an avatar at any time."

"How clever, Tongchen."

Karlando had to admit, having someone in his game who could control space-time was really difficult to deal with.

But his "system" was too strong.

The powers granted by the God of Games and Entertainment gave him a gamified perspective.

He could clearly see Tongchen's "countdown."

Once this time ended, Tongchen would become a "player" again.

Once turned into a player, in his game, it was absolutely impossible to defeat himself.

However, Karlando couldn't escape either.

In front of someone like Tongchen who held the Power of Space-Time, any attempt to flee was futile.

So he wanted to try, to see if he could kill Tongchen within his most powerful 300-plus seconds.

That way, he could completely shatter the confidence of the Drakhan pioneers.

One avatar after another tried to approach Tongchen, their speed incredibly fast.

But to Tongchen, even if those avatars could teleport, it was meaningless.

Because every action requires time.

Dozens of avatars approached Tongchen, and he pushed his Time Freeze Domain to the limit.

For him, time slowed down to one three-hundredth of its normal flow.

This was his extreme limit, under which his physical consumption was also great.

One second for Karlando was roughly equivalent to three hundred seconds for Tongchen.

In his eyes, Tongchen's speed had become so fast it was indiscernible, beyond reaction.

One avatar actually touched the hem of Tongchen's clothes.

Tongchen had been watching all along; this was the bait.

He used himself as bait to lure Karlando to substitute his true body with an avatar at the moment it touched him.

In other words, the avatar closest to him, which could touch him at any moment—

Was Karlando himself.

"I need to drop the flow of time to its lowest, to kill Karlando the instant he tries to transfer his true body!"

The Space Transfer Technique allowed the dagger to return to Tongchen's hand.

As one of Karlando's avatars was about to touch Tongchen, Tongchen stabbed down hard with his dagger.

But what he hit was only emptiness.

Karlando had anticipated Tongchen's thoughts.

"Though this inheritor of the Power of Space-Time is powerful, the more he compresses the flow of time, the greater his physical consumption."

"When he realizes I intend to kill him instantly using the rock-paper-scissors rule, he will surely think I'd use the avatar transfer to touch him."

"But I won't. Mobilizing these avatars doesn't cost me anything, but maintaining this level of Time Freeze Domain, every second is a huge consumption for him."

Karlando successfully anticipated Tongchen's moves.

He just needed to keep sending avatars close to Tongchen, creating the illusion that he might transfer his true body at any moment to kill Tongchen with it.

Every move he made was carefree, but Tongchen had to go all out for each step.

Under such disparity, Tongchen was bound to make a mistake under pressure.

...

...

The black dungeon.

The jailer showed terrifying strength, and the overwhelming number of Zhou Baiyu's avatars had been mostly wiped out.

Zhou Baiyu himself was now exposed before the jailer.

Facing an enemy with invincible insta-kills and anti-mutation abilities... Zhou Baiyu was also at a loss.

"To defeat the jailer, mutation is still the key."

"But I must find a way to divert the jailer's attention, or it will easily neutralize my mutation."

Mutation consumes a lot of stamina, but there are blood bottles to recover stamina in the game.

Zhou Baiyu hardly needed to consider the number of mutations.

So theoretically, as long as the number of mutations is sufficient, one can certainly mutate an item that will turn the tide.

But this premise—that he must survive now.

Zhou Baiyu did have such a trump card.

"Mark."

"I'm here."

When he called for Mark in his mind, Mark responded immediately, almost faster than calling for Xiaodu or Siri.

"Logically, my abilities can only be used for mutation, and I shouldn't be able to use other active abilities, but strangely, I can sense your presence."
