Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

So it turns out that the God of Games and Entertainment has a half-new, half-old god constitution?

No wonder he can have an inheritor.

Does that mean... he can also have devotees? Zhou Baiyu didn't ponder further.

Clearly, the fusion product of the Time and Space God and the God of Corruption is unlikely to mean a relationship between the two that is unspeakable.

For the fun-loving Zhou Baiyu, if that was the case, he would definitely ship them hard and loudly chant, "Get together, get together."

After all, from a biological perspective, this is the combination of two beings who have evolved to the highest level and possess the strongest abilities.

While Zhou Baiyu didn't know what it would be like for gods to fight each other, he was certain that if a real fight broke out, the three worlds would suffer.

So the answer is clearly not that. Zhou Baiyu continued to read the Book of Chaos.

The God of Games and Entertainment, it seems, was particularly talkative when leaving these messages:

"The showdown between the Time and Space God and the God of Corruption is actually a microcosm of the old versus new gods."

"On the day the Time and Space God fell, the 'legacy' I received was the eradication of corruption."

"The Time and Space God told me that perhaps only corruption can defeat corruption, and that he needed to create variables in the future, but absolute variables do not exist."

"I only understood the meaning of this phrase much later. I explored the extremes of difference and chaos, but in the end, I found that everything returned to order."

"This is something you cannot understand yet. Let's get back to the Time and Space God's legacy."

"The Time and Space God needed us to restrain corruption. After his death, the world would trigger the third disaster."

"The previous two disasters occurred in worlds of different dimensions but were perfectly resolved."

"The showdown between new and old gods evolved into the divine war."

"The microcosm of the divine war is the conflict between your human forerunners, the corrupted species, and the demon race."

Zhou Baiyu felt strange reading this...

It seemed like there was some missing information.

For instance, what were the previous two disasters?

The God of Games and Entertainment should have mentioned them in passing, but he didn't, instead bringing the conversation swiftly back to the conflict between the old and the new.

And back to the "rules of the gods" that the God of Games and Entertainment initially mentioned.

"At the time I left this message for you, the final battle of the gods had not yet begun."

"But we already knew that the gods who die in this war would become the rules."

"The rules will become the microcosm of the next old versus new battle. I cannot tell you yet why it has to be arranged this way. You only need to know that this is the greatest effort that all the old gods and all the new gods willing to help the old... can do."

"After the fall of the Time and Space God, the God of Corruption did not appear either."

"Instead, the Divine Realm began to corrupt, and there was an influx of tentacles and crimson eyes."

"To completely purify the Divine Realm, to completely cleanse the other worlds, corruption must be eradicated."

"Similarly, the new gods of corruption, to fully take over the world, also need to eliminate the remnants of the old gods."

"The war of the gods yields no results; we will all become rules. On this point, the God of Time and Space and I have simulated a trillion seven hundred billion times and still cannot find a possibility."

"Thus, we can only pin our hopes on—the next generation."

"The next generation is you."

"We become rules, some favor your human forerunners, some favor the demon race, the corrupted species."

"And some neutral rules will lean towards whomever is stronger. You must have felt these 'fence-sitter' rules, offering you various rewards each time you achieve success."

"But correspondingly, when the demon race and corrupted species grow strong, they also help suppress humans."

"I cannot see our future after we become rules, not even the Time and Space God can."

"We can only see the Twilight of the Gods, and out of a trillion seven hundred billion simulations, we chose the one that has the best impact on the future."

Zhou Baiyu's feelings were complex as he read this, filled with mixed emotions, predominantly sadness.

Although he had never interacted with this god, in the process of creating miracles time and again, he gradually ceased to resist and dislike this deity.

When the God of Games and Entertainment left these messages, the Twilight of the Gods had not yet come.

He naively believed that the God of Time and Space would truly join forces with him.

But according to some clues he received—

In the Twilight of the Gods, the conflict between the new and the old, the God of Games and Entertainment was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Both new gods and old gods were targeting him. They reached a consensus to transform the God of Difference and Chaos into a rule.

The simulation by the Time and Space God might have been just a ruse.

This god might have believed that the truly best outcome would be one without the interference of the God of Difference and Chaos.

In the early stages of the Twilight of the Gods, the God of Games and Entertainment was killed off, but in the later stages...

As the inheritor of the God of Games and Entertainment, Zhou Baiyu sighed when he thought about the moment when the old gods betrayed the God of Games and Entertainment.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the God of Games and Entertainment granted the inheritor the true characteristics of "the God of Difference and Chaos's temperament."

This trait ensured that his inheritors, at least, would not be despised by the corrupted species and the demon race.

He sighed and continued to read; it was now clear that the struggle between the forerunners and the demon race, the corrupted kind, and the pollution kind was the continuation of the divine war.

The divine war, the conflict between the new and the old, is the continuation of the war between the Time and Space God and the God of Corruption.

So Zhou Baiyu concluded—the true main quest of the forerunners, the ultimate task, probably has something to do with the Time and Space God and the God of Corruption.
