Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

"I'd like to consult you about Bai Ye,"

"Ah, my old-fashioned disciple. Although he's very smart, and his brain is the best, he really is old-fashioned,"

A looked at Zhou Baiyu:

"Speak, what do you want to know about this straightforward guy?"

A had even completed the Divine Endowment, having become the rules themselves. You could say he reached the extreme limit of what mortals can achieve.

So to A, disciple Bai Ye wasn't anything extraordinary.

Zhou Baiyu, however, understood A's reaction:

"What I want to know is, does Bai Ye's study of the All Gods' Language have anything to do with you?"

"What? What are you talking about? Bai Ye knows the All Gods' Language?"

Zhou Baiyu hadn't expected such a reaction from A.

So he asked for paper and a pen, and wrote down a passage of the All Gods' Language.

Dr. A said:

"That is a script I only grasped later on, after... the Divine Endowment it started to make sense to me."

"Such things, after the twilight of the gods, should have been impossible for anyone to learn."

Bai Ye was indeed no simple matter.

Zhou Baiyu said:

"Are you sure? Because according to the intelligence I got from his daughter Bai Ling, Bai Ye had learned this script... even before the true doomsday arrived,"

Upon hearing this, A immediately fell into thought.

Just like Zhou Baiyu, all the impressions they had about Bai Ye... were being overturned in these thoughts.

Dr. A then realized, could it be that Bai Ye had been pretending all along?

"Are you saying this is all true?"

"Absolutely certain. Bai Ling has no reason to lie to me."

At that moment, even Dr. A, a "Divine Enthroned" being, showed a look of admiration:

"I don't know what my disciple is planning, but if he even managed to deceive me, hahahaha... hahahahaha..."

Laughter echoed in Dr. A's laboratory, Zhou Baiyu had never seen A so happy before.

Even the good news from his granddaughter An Ya didn't stir him emotionally.

But now, Dr. A could barely contain his joy:

"Hahaha, if he managed to deceive even me, that guy is something else; I hope he's still alive! I'd always been thinking, it's such a shame the talents of Bai Ye were so straightforward."

"Now it seems, I've seriously underestimated him!"

In A's eyes, Zhou Baiyu was a disciple.

At the very least, the role he played was always that of a mentor.

However, unlike Sister Lin who truly saw Zhou Baiyu as a disciple, in A's eyes, Zhou Baiyu was more of a trade partner.

In A's view, his true disciple was always Bai Ye. It's just too bad that Bai Ye didn't have half of Zhou Baiyu's adaptability... Otherwise, he would not have perished at the hands of the Seamer.

Now, upon learning some truths about Bai Ye, A was ecstatic because he discovered Bai Ye might be... far more capable of thought and flexibility than he had imagined.

Regardless, he cared about this disciple.

"Thank you for bringing the good news. Though you don't have any vanguard value to trade this time, I cannot give you something for free, for what I have is truly valuable. You have already encountered some enemies that are unsolvable at the moment, right? There are some enemies that you cannot defeat even by activating 'Absolute Moment' because, at this stage, your own capabilities are too weak,"

"Reverse Corruption has made up for some shortcomings, yet it's still far from enough. Reverse Corruption is merely an imitation of true corruption; it's not actual corruption. What I am researching is truly controlling corruption."

"But I need a great deal of vanguard value."

Dr. A looked at Zhou Baiyu seriously.

For some reason, Zhou Baiyu didn't really like this handsome doctor at first.

Now... he found himself warming up to A quite a bit.

A was a silver-haired beautiful man, very different from traditional bearded scientists.

Yet Zhou Baiyu's change in impression wasn't because of A's outward appearance, but because he found out... this deified individual also had a sentimental side.

This person had always pretended to be indifferent to his disciple.

He outwardly despised Bai Ye's idea of doggedly using science to solve corruption.

But secretly, wasn't his laboratory also using science to solve corruption?

This master-disciple relationship was actually quite deep.

"I should be going, your reaction tells me you don't know about Bai Ye's affairs, it seems I won't get any valuable clues from you,"

"Unless unexpected, perhaps only from the Seamer, will I find clues about Bai Ye..."

Zhou Baiyu was halfway through when he suddenly stopped.

A asked:

"What's the matter, you suddenly froze."

Many pieces of information came together in Zhou Baiyu's mind, and he said:

"I got some intelligence from a friend. In version 1.6, there will be the strongest existence among the Reversers who will go to assassinate the not-yet-risen Seamer."

"But interestingly, I was involved in that recruitment. At this stage, I actually really want Seamer dead."

"This guy is also the first one to give me the sense of having an archenemy."

"According to someone from version 2.49, I prevented Reverser No.1 from killing Seamer and even got seriously injured in the process."

"So I've been thinking, why on earth did I stop Seamer from being killed?"

A said:

"If Seamer died in version 1.6, then after 1.6, there would've been many significant changes."

"Maybe you considered those changes?"

Zhou Baiyu shook his head:

"Maybe, but I feel it's not just that. Is there a possibility... that it's related to Bai Ye?"

A frowned.

Bai Ye's death at Seamer's hands, as far as everyone is concerned, is the assumed outcome of the event.

So to some extent, Seamer might know Bai Ye's whereabouts.

Zhou Baiyu didn't continue the topic.

"Alright, A, I should be going. I have a lot of things to deal with. I need to head to Lin's place."

Asking Dr. A about Bai Ye's matter, asking Lin about Mel and Yu Ji.

These were the things Zhou Baiyu needed to do at the moment.

A didn't hold Zhou Baiyu back but simply said:

"Looking forward to hearing more about my Disciple."

"I'm looking forward to it as well."

As his words fell, Zhou Baiyu also vanished.

...

...

The transfer station.

Mainly, the voice of those going before was full of praises for Absolute Moment and Jiang Xianwu.

Under their teamwork, the casualties during this island trip by the pioneers were only twenty percent.

But nearly every survivor had gotten some enhancement.

And they had defeated enemies that were almost unbeatable.

This time, not too many people were confusing Absolute Moment anymore.

Because everyone had seen the potential in Jiang Xianwu; he was absolutely not a common creature.

Regarding the successful conclusion of the hyper-dimensional mutation, the nine agents of the intermediary were very surprised as well.

In the intermediary channel of the voice of those going before, intermediary Yan Gu couldn't stop bragging:

"I didn't expect that my disciple, Ke Zhongye, has already comprehended to this degree, hahaha, he has not let me down!"

"But Dream Awakening has performed quite ordinarily this time, huh?"

"Right, Ji Ye, your Disciple and Guang Tongchen, didn't do so well this time..."

Yan Gu teased Ji Ye, the intermediary of Dark Night and Concealing God.

Ji Ye snorted coldly:

"Is a butcher's knife needed to kill a chicken?"

Yan Gu laughed heartily.

"The Pantheon, none of you are strangers to it, it has existed since our time."

"This time they appeared within the Dragon Xia domain, originally thought to cause a huge calamity, but unexpectedly, these disciples actually won."

"Lin, congratulations, this kid Jiang Xianwu, not simple at all."

Lin took a drag on her cigarette, her eyes filled with mirth.

The hyper-dimensional mutation affair had finally come to a satisfactory conclusion.

Although many pioneers died, it was of little significance.

For intermediaries who had experienced several apocalypses, they were already accustomed to the cost-benefit analysis between life and death.

Lin didn't engage with the intermediaries.

Because in this pink-toned bar, her most proud Disciple had finally appeared.

Looking at the figure of Zhou Baiyu, Lin blew out a smoke ring and her glance shimmered:

"Welcome back, little brother."
