Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

Zhou Baiyu actually wasn't sure either.

The answer he sought related to the true history of the gods and the reason why the world had become like this.

A hadn't told him, the library hadn't told him, and Lin hadn't told him either.

Looking at the various truths pieced together, everything that Zhou Baiyu knew seemed to be the collisions of various events.

But when it came to questions of origin, there was still no clue.

Perhaps, the end of the mutation series of tasks lay at the conclusion of this island journey.

Zhou Baiyu didn't expect to find all the answers to his questions, but after all, he hoped to find some guidance.

With these expectations, Zhou Baiyu was very excited.

"This island is really big. Although we don't know what creature it is, we are walking very fast. We have been descending for so long, and if you look back, you can't even see the initial entrance anymore,"

Bai Ling was also a bit excited.

Guang Tongchen noticed that this girl had been quite aloof previously. She would only talk a bit with the unparalleled.

But in front of Zhou Baiyu, she revealed a bit of a young girl's demeanor.

Combining the previous farce, Midel, Zhang Haoyun...

Suddenly, Guang Tongchen speculated:

Could it be, after contact with the succubus, he had awakened the male succubus gene?

It was probably because the current environment wasn't very dangerous that the thoughts in Guang Tongchen's mind became bizarre.

"Yes, it's huge. If I'm not mistaken, this is an ultimate being stronger than the seven Demon Emperors, a Devouring Demon in its demon god form,"

Zhou Baiyu suddenly revealed, to Bai Ling's utter astonishment.

She knew the Devouring Demon was a more pure combatant among the demonic races than the beast demons.

Massive in size.

The combat power of the Devouring Demon was easy to estimate: the larger the body, the stronger the strength.

And this island, as vast as a small city, if it was the body of a Devouring Demon...

Then this Devouring Demon was perhaps too powerful.

It was far stronger than the legendary Devouring Demon Emperor who treated the great ocean as a playground.

And Bai Ling realized that the island was only showing its surface part above the sea.

As far as she could see, the part below the sea surface was many times larger.

"To construct such an endless passage inside a body, this creature must be truly gigantic. But why... why is it here?"

"Perhaps this is related to the God of Difference and Chaos,"

In reality, Zhou Baiyu had also considered the possibility that if someone else had received the defensive mode reward from the start.

And if they had all been SSS-rated along the way, then perhaps other professions would also have their own "God-inspired quest lines."

He came to see the series of events—meeting Huang Miu, entering the library, encountering hyperdimensional mutation, journeying to the island, entering the inner parts of the Black Tower—as parts of his own "God-inspired quest line."

If the defensive mode reward hadn't been his but had instead been given to people like the unparalleled Guang Tongchen, maybe the reward would have changed.

Perhaps they would have encountered their own quest lines.

This thought, Zhou Baiyu did not voice.

After half an hour of walking, Bai Ling asked:

"Why did you choose to bring me along?"

"I wanted to know more about your father, Bai Ye,"

Bai Ling wasn't uncomfortable, and quite frankly said:

"What do you want to know?"

"I suspect we have a long way to go on this staircase, so why don't you tell me everything you can? The information I got in the Gu Tower could be wrong,"

Bai Ling probably guessed the questions Jiang Xianwu wanted to know, as well as the direction he was trying to investigate.

But it didn't bother her. There were many people in the front, so it wasn't the place for talk, but here, with only Jiang Xianwu and the person he trusted the most, Bai Ling did not hide:

"My father had a teacher named A. I met him once; he had a fanatical obsession with studying corruption,"

"When the apocalypse came, my father's beliefs almost shattered. In the midst of breaking down, he even thought of suicide."

"But for my mother and me, he finally decided to live on as an ordinary person."

"He took my mother and me, searching for shelter after shelter, until we found a place to stay in Linxiang City's refuge."

"After that, you know everything. My father really didn't have much hope for life,"

"When the truth in the Gu Tower was gradually unveiled... my father chose to feed himself to the Seamer to save us,"

As Bai Ling mentioned the Seamer, a rare flash of murderous intent and rage crossed her eyes.

Zhou Baiyu said:

"How did Teacher Bai Ye learn the All Gods' Language?"

"The All Gods' Language? You mean the writing you mentioned earlier?" Bai Ling asked.

Guang Tongchen was also surprised; the All Gods' Language sounded like something very ancient.

Zhou Baiyu said:

"Was it A who taught him?"

Bai Ling shook her head:

"No, A was certainly researching corruption, trying to explore origins, but my father didn't see it that way. However, it seems my father had his own experiences. I once asked my father what those writings were."

"He said he had been to a place where he learned these writings, an ancient language and script."

"But after having a conflict of ideals with A, he left A."

"Moreover, my father was very family-oriented, no matter how busy he was, he would always come home to have meals with my mother and me."

"However, when I asked my father where he learned these writings because I also wanted to learn, my father stopped me."

"He only told me that he had learned those writings a very, very long time ago."

Bai Ling had lived for many years already.

Even though both Midel and Bai Ling appeared young, they were much older than Zhang Haoyun.
