Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

After becoming aware of the origins of evil, all of a sudden, he didn't know what to do.

In the dilapidated refuge dwelling, although it provided shelter from wind and rain, it couldn't protect a young man from the wounds within his heart.

Thunder fell in the distance, a lone light flickered.

Along with the laughter, the roar, the cries of the youth, the flickering lamp finally went out. Only the thunder in the distance continued to strike.

In such a scene, Zhou Baiyu merely stood in the rain outside during the night, letting the rain soak him through.

These were all memory scenes, and in the next scene, the rain on his body would all disappear.

Huang and Zhou Baiyu stood at one spot, with the Blue Hole speaking through Huang:

"This might be the only scene you can touch before you leave with Seamer. If you don't do something now?"

The room at that moment had plunged into darkness with the lamp extinguished.

Outside the room at that time, the world was vast, with thunder illuminating the night.

Zhou Baiyu and Seamer, one outside, the other inside.

Doing something now would actually be too late. If he really were to do something, maybe he could prevent Seamer from killing his foster parents before it happened?

But what would that change?

He had only a few minutes, and in these few minutes, it wasn't possible to change the foster parents' view of Seamer.

Blue Hole, speaking through Huang, continued:

"I can have Hei take a detour, to delay for a bit, but not too long. The longer the delay, the greater Seamer's suspicions will be, and he also fears having his memory altered."

"Especially without Purple, Seamer will be harder to tackle than that Reverser."

"I must send him away as soon as possible. If you want to change anything, it's best to do it now."

Zhou Baiyu shook his head:

"Forget it, I'm going to kill Seamer, in the future. There's bound to be a deathmatch between him and me."

"But now, I don't want to do anything, take Seamer away."

Blue Hole was somewhat puzzled:

"Why?"

Zhou Baiyu walked towards the exit, ready to leave the scene, and said as he walked:

"Good people should have good returns, evil people should get their comeuppance. Justice will prevail, and evil will be eradicated. That is the world I yearn for."

"The world is far from my expectations, so I should cherish every moment of satisfying retaliation."

Seamer became what he is now largely because of his foster parents.

Zhou Baiyu, who had normal parents, shouldn't be able to understand someone like Seamer.

But perhaps because of the memory exchange, he was able to feel disgust for these foster parents.

So here, he doesn't hate what Seamer did. Nor does he intend to change anything.

It's not that Zhou Baiyu felt sympathy for Seamer, but rather that he was short of luck.

At least in this scene, there wasn't much he could do.

Of course, as he said, he would personally kill Seamer.

With it, to draw the curtain on version 2.50.

[Clearance Rating: SSS]

[Evaluation: Although you did not find the memory of Blue Hole, in the process, you seem to have established a bit of a rapport with Blue Hole.

This is something more valuable. Children of the Holy Sanctuary are neither inherently evil nor absolutely just. Understand them more, make good use of them, and you might discover—the difficulty of the entire game isn't as hard as you imagined.

Also, in the interaction between No.1 and Seamer, you found the most balanced point. Congratulations, even though the future hasn't gotten better, it hasn't gotten worse either. Often, the latter is more important than the former.]

[Clearance Reward: 7500 Pioneer Points. God of Difference and Chaos's advanced temperament, the probability of encountering adventures will further increase.]

When Zhou Baiyu came to his senses, he realized that he had already returned to Linxiang City.

And with the clearance rating pop-up, there were only a few minutes left before returning to the transfer station.

Blue Hole was gone, so was Seamer.

The journey through Brain Hole World left Zhou Baiyu somewhat bewildered.

He was also unsure about the final result of the showdown between Blue Hole and Bai Ye.

Blue Hole and Bai Ye, from which version had they come from?

This recruitment mission, he had actually been teammates with Seamer for a brief moment. Everything looked so magical.

In the end, Zhou Baiyu's thoughts returned to reality,

The good news was that there were substantial Pioneer Points from this mission.

The bad news was, this little advance value, it was clearly impossible to keep, Doctor A had stated not long ago that he had an important research project to test on himself.

Zhou Baiyu was still very willing to be Doctor A's guinea pig, after all, half of the joy for a gaming addict comes from profit, and the other half from the unknown.

...

...

The transfer station, Doctor A's lab.

"You've come back at just the right time."

As soon as Zhou Baiyu returned from his summons, Doctor A couldn't wait to showcase his achievements.

"Although I don't know when your next adventure will be, trust me, it will definitely be helpful to you. But to be honest..."

Doctor A frowned, turning away from a clutter of bottles and jars to say:

"With this little advance value, it's hard for me to help you."

Zhou Baiyu said:

"That's all there is, take it all."

He wasn't surprised at all, as for Sister Lin—well, she could suffer a little.

"I'm a bit reluctant." Doctor A was telling the truth.

He felt that his great research must be worth tens of thousands in advance value, and that was only because he gave a super friendly price due to having only Zhou Baiyu as an inheritor.

"Forget it, you should accumulate a bit more advance value a few more times; otherwise, it's too much of a loss for me."

Doctor A actually refused the advance value.

This made Zhou Baiyu even more curious about what Doctor A had cooked up.

"I have a piece of information that you'll definitely be interested in," Zhou Baiyu said.

Doctor A, not fooled by Zhou Baiyu for the first time, disdainfully said:

"My research costs money, don't bother me with this useless stuff, you've already mooched enough valuable information from me."

"I won't be deceived, cash on delivery, I need advance value, lots and lots of it."

"There's no way I'll be swayed by your information and then lower the price. Absolutely not."

Doctor A had been tricked by Zhou Baiyu before, and this time his research meant he had achieved a deeper understanding of corruption.

So, he absolutely couldn't reduce the fee.

It was a matter of principle, a bottom line that was non-negotiable.

Doctor A was full of confidence.

Zhou Baiyu said:

"I've met Bai Ye himself, and I know Bai Ye's true identity. Do you know what Bai Ye had Bai Ling for? I'll tell you—"

Zhou Baiyu stopped abruptly, like a pro at playing the tantalizing game.

Doctor A was stunned.

In that moment, he felt as if ten thousand Bai Yes were crawling all over him.

His curiosity was piqued in an instant.

But he held back!

Yet Zhou Baiyu was sure of it, Doctor A, as Bai Ye's mentor, still held Bai Ye in his heart.

So he stepped up his game:

"Bai Ye still respects you a lot, even though I know his true identity and his connection with the Reverser, and even though he approached you, actually...well, anyway, he truly respects you."

"Ah, it's a pity, I can only keep these secrets buried in my heart now."

"After all, I can't let them out just to burden you with the same troubles as me."

Zhou Baiyu just stopped speaking. I cut off, and I go silent, but I'm a nice guy."

Doctor A was defenseless:

"Give it to me! Give it to me! Seven thousand and five hundred then! I'm giving you a deal! Hurry! Hurry the hell up and tell me what's up with Bai Ye!"

Zhou Baiyu grinned as he got the better end of the deal:

"Ah, how could I possibly take advantage of you? That doesn't seem right!"

"But since you're so sincere, I'll accept it reluctantly."

Doctor A mentally flipped him off, but he was still fixated on Bai Ye.

This honest disciple, he was also curious to know his true face.

At the same time, Zhou Baiyu noticed that his advance value had been reset to zero.

But in his skill slot, one thing was missing and another was added.

Or rather, the original Reverse Corruption skill was replaced by a new ability.
