Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

As the presidents made their statements, and as the unique arguments were continuously accepted and understood, all pioneers began to feel their skin crawl.

Yes, that guy named Zhou Shou, without any delay, without taking any detours, like a hound sniffing out its prey...

He precisely found the Future Gate and then, with a swift slash, he cleanly eliminated the upper echelon of the Future Gate.

Who wouldn't feel chills at that?

The opponent, hailing from the future, seemed very likely to come from a post-apocalyptic era after version 2.0.

This meant that the person hunting the pioneers possessed the Power of Corruption and occupational powers, various traits, making them an extremely troubling monster-level hunter.

And the prey?

Apart from possessing traits, the occupational forces granted by the nine deities, they could hardly be utilized.

This was completely a massacre with unequal resources, an utterly unfair situation.

Most crucially, the highest version explored by humanity to date might not necessarily be the true highest version.

Yet, the pioneers were very aware that the Reversers had arrived at version 1.0, which was the pioneers' Achilles heel.

At that moment, everyone's heart was filled with fear.

Tongchen also spoke at this time,

"The video doesn't reveal the true strength of this Reverser, and there's no need for everyone to panic,"

"I've gathered you all here today to discuss a solution."

Guang Tongchen said,

"You already have an idea."

Tongchen didn't keep them in suspense, and quickly established a strategy,

"Yes, from now on, all pioneers, during every recruitment process, should as much as possible gather information about the Reversers."

"Reversers are definitely not corresponding to pioneers; since they are Reversers, then they must appear in the future."

"This means that the birth of Reversers is many versions later than that of the pioneers. Thus, they must have been born in the future!"

"While we are in the past, we are ahead of them! We have the advantage!"

"All fear stems from the unknown, and I hope all pioneers will have the courage to explore the unknown, to understand all information about the Reversers, which isn't available in version 1.0. It can only be found by everyone in the various versions of the Advanced World!"

"So from now on, every pioneer must take on an additional task in their hearts; after being recruited, besides surviving, they must also make every effort to uncover the whereabouts of the Reversers!"

"Find the information about the Reversers, find their origin, and before they reverse the flow and come forth, take the lead and cut off the Reversers at their source!"

This vehement speech instantly inspired all the pioneers.

The fear brought by Zhou Shou, although not entirely dissipated, had faded significantly.

Zhou Baiyu realized that Tongchen really was a very charismatic person.

Though halfway through they popped champagne, thinking they were doomed, and made a bet with Guang Tongchen.

But that's human nature; Zhou Baiyu, though he achieved an SSS-rated outcome, it was also by leveraging a privilege similar to the "unlimited life times" of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

Gulou Fright, simply an impossible scenario to clear, was truly a grim newcomer's graveyard.

So, no blame could be placed on Tongchen.

If Tongchen knew Zhou Baiyu's thoughts at this moment, he would definitely seize the opportunity to woo Jiang Xianwu.

But unfortunately...

The more Zhou Baiyu admired Tongchen, the more curious he became about Guang Tongchen.

Tongchen's biggest opponent, according to him.

Wasn't this also a kind of NTR?

Back to the main point, Tongchen's speech was quickly recognized.

The crowd also regained their courage and confidence through this speech.

At the same time, the forum occasionally had posts vowing revenge for "When the Big Wind Blows".

Zhou Shou had suddenly become the target of everyone's arrows.

No matter how powerful Zhou Shou was, it was perilous if all the people of the Advanced World targeted him.

If they kept inquiring about him from every version where he hadn't yet become powerful, Zhou Shou's situation was very dangerous.

Zhou Baiyu stroked his chin:

"I always feel... the name Zhou Shou is different from the attendant's name."

"Hisss, this God-awful naming style, don't fucking tell me it was me who named him in some version? Fuck, the more I think about it, the more likely it seems..."

Zhou Baiyu was shocked.

He seemed to have realized that in some future version, he had met Zhou Shou for the first time and then given this distasteful name to his own brother.

Just then, Lin suddenly spoke up:

"Once you realize a certain future act, you better not contravene it. When you meet that boy, you really should... give him that name."

"Otherwise, something bad might happen."

Fuck!

Lin, can you just smoke properly and not talk nonsense!

What Lin said essentially confirmed the suspicions in Zhou Baiyu's heart.

What was this?

Was my future self setting a trap for my past self? I meet Zhou Shou in the future, and then this kid Zhou Shou runs to the past to kill the Advanced World members?

"If all the people of the Advanced World keep inquiring about Zhou Shou in every version... then it's very likely that my relationship with Zhou Shou will also be exposed."

Zhou Baiyu broke out in a cold sweat. If that day really came, wouldn't he become the enemy of the Advanced World just like Zhou Shou?

Those who play with time are inevitably played by time, and right now, he really wanted to slap himself.

But soon, Zhou Baiyu realized something was off.

"No... no... if I've already realized that this is wrong, then I will definitely tell Zhou Shou in the future not to kill 'When the Big Wind Blows'."

"Then, all of this reality that's happening right now shouldn't be happening."

"So the answer is... even though I now know Zhou Shou killed 'When the Big Wind Blows' and know Zhou Shou is a Reverser... the future version of me still ended up naming him Zhou Shou!"

Zhou Baiyu faintly felt that something was off.

Knowing that Zhou Shou was a menace, why still follow the future track and give Zhou Shou that name?

Zhou Baiyu once again entered the palace filled with statues in his consciousness, which was his card pool.

He discovered that under the statue of Zhou Shou, bathed in golden light… Zhou Shou now had a name.

"Other descriptions haven't changed, but there's now a name, and the favorability is still five stars..."

"Is it just because Zhou Shou is extremely fixated on his brother, and I approached him to use him?"

"No... no, although I'm self-serving, I can distinguish right from wrong. Although I'm a different walker, I tend to help humans..."

His consciousness returned to the transit station, and Zhou Baiyu listened again to the recording and watched the footage of Zhou Shou killing 'When the Big Wind Blows'.

"If the future remains unchanged, then it means that the current me realizes that Zhou Shou is right."

"Even that Zhou Shou is not our enemy..."

Realizing this, Zhou Baiyu quickly had a clear direction in mind.

After finding the direction, he quickly spotted the clues.

Originally wanting to keep a low profile, Zhou Baiyu had no choice but to go high-profile again.

(Three updates tonight, that's it.)
