Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

When humanity as a whole was performing strongly, the neutral rules would assist them.

They would strengthen humanity.

Simply put, in this game of chess, humanity made the right move, so the neutral rules, like the grass on top of a wall, boosted humanity.

Not only that, individuals from the third world like Zhen Shi and Zhang Haoyun also saw the "settlement interface" for the first time.

Only then did Zhen Shi realize that he had such a trait—[Gentleness and Kindness].

"A fallen believer? So I am what Baiyu referred to as... a contaminant? My deity is the god of Gentleness and Kindness?"

"But it seems I haven't caused any spread. Is it because Haoyun suppressed me?"

"Or is it that my god is somewhat special?"

Zhen Shi found it very interesting.

Zhang Haoyun, on the other hand, discovered that her swarm had been strengthened. The enhancement reduced consumption.

Of course, there were pioneers who only received a slight amount of pioneer points.

Not everyone is qualified to receive an SSS rating.

Only those who had slain enemies stronger than themselves during this survival journey were eligible.

In total, there were only three——

Unmatched Under Heaven, Jiang Xianwu, and Ke Zhongye. These three had defeated beings stronger than themselves.

The rewards for Unmatched Under Heaven and Ke Zhongye involved the enhancement of their core skills.

As for others, based on kills and activity levels, the ratings varied from B to S.

For most pioneers, this was a boon that was not easily sought after.

The Prophet and Guan Canghai, as comrades-in-arms of Ke Zhongye, witnessed together how Ke Zhongye defeated the contaminant Luo Yaduo.

But the Prophet only received a B rating, while Guan Canghai, as a person destined by fate, had planted seeds of inevitable defeat in Luo Yaduo...

His rating, although not SSS, had reached SS.

...

...

At the bottom of a valley, hidden under disguise, no one noticed Karlando's presence.

Karlando also dared not launch an attack rashly.

After being defeated once, his arrogance was no longer present.

"Great god, have You forgiven me?" Karlando didn't expect that despite his defeat, he would receive a reward.

He was rated SS in the clearance assessment.

Although he hadn't slain any enemy stronger than himself, he had killed the strongest under him, one of the Seven Demon Emperors.

It was almost like toying with, tormenting its victim.

Later, Karlando almost exterminated all pioneers by himself.

Despite failing, his achievements were still remarkable.

Thus, Karlando's rating was SS.

Yet to Karlando himself, it felt somewhat ironic.

This was the first time he had seen such an interface.

"This is a strange summoning, I, the Demon race, and those subordinates of the Pantheon, all got pulled in."

"Perhaps this summoning isn't for us; it's a privilege meant for purifiers and pioneers only."

"So, can I assume... every time pioneers and purifiers complete a survival challenge, they receive rewards?"

Karlando's power made him arrogant.

But his observational and problem-solving abilities were also strong.

Upon recognizing the severity of the issue, he immediately realized it.

"Unmatched Under Heaven, being the victor, must have a higher rating than me."

"I received a reward from the great god, got more operable rules in the game I created..."

"What about Unmatched Under Heaven? And that Mutator?"

After replaying the battle process, Karlando knew how he had been defeated.

Actually, it wasn't shameful, since his opponent was cheating. Of course, Karlando indeed paid the price for his arrogance.

If he hadn't attacked Unmatched Under Heaven aggressively and had instead waited in place or focused solely on one of them, the outcome would have been different.

But he also fully realized that these two pioneers must be eliminated, for when the barrier disappears and the Pantheon officially goes to war with the pioneers—

these two would certainly be a major threat.

Although he received a good reward, for someone of Karlando's level, improvements were hard to come by.

Having been so bluntly and brutally strengthened... Karlando was not pleased.

At this moment, this highest authority of the Pantheon truly understood something—

Although the pioneers and purifiers appeared to be at a disadvantage, their advantage was also very clear—their potential for growth was too high.

"Next time, when I face you again, I will give you no opportunities!"

...

...

Deep within the island. In an unknown sanctuary storing deities.

After seeing the settlement interface, Bai Ling said:

"Is this your privilege? This strange settlement interface appearing before my eyes... an S rating."

"Eh, you're a corrupt breed and you also have a settlement interface?"

Zhou Baiyu, although he quickly understood the reason, was still extremely surprised.

Bai Ling nodded:

"It seems it indeed is your privilege, but this time those who entered the island all had a share."

"So this is your method of enhancement, truly a group blessed by the gods. This method of enhancement, simple and crude."

Guang Tongchen did not like this remark:

"Do you know what the death rate of pioneers is?"

Bai Ling responded:

"What does that matter? Risk is proportional to reward."

This statement was indeed correct, and Guang Tongchen provided no further response.

Zhou Baiyu was curious:

"What is your reward? Bai Ling, tell me about it?"

"Just a bit of insight... really strange, are all pioneers' attributes directly increased like this?"

Indeed, Bai Ling felt like she could see farther and smaller objects now.
