My portable grandfather refreshes every week

The following morning, Xue Dinglu did not sleep. He spent a lot of time preparing for this battle, which would be a direct confrontation with an apostle on his home planet.

Although he chose the safest and most despicable approach, Xue Law still felt uneasy and began researching gender-swap potions all night long.

This is the most unique potion in the world, and it's something Xue Dinglu had to face as soon as he arrived. It almost caused him and Su Su to stop being brothers and instead become best friends because of it.

Even according to Xue's Law, this thing seems very unreasonable, because the materials needed for a fairy that can completely reverse a man's gender are so simple.

According to Faust, sex-changing drugs could be produced even in a small workshop, and once ingested, a man would be irreversibly transformed into a male.

Isn't this a bit too extreme and too fast?

Xue's Law knows that there are many races and creatures in the universe that can change their gender, but humans are definitely not among them.

In other words, among all the humanoids in the universe that are evolving towards the concept of a supreme ruler, it is absolutely impossible for such a strange race to exist.

Furthermore, according to Faust's information, there were absolutely no sex-changing drugs or similar things in this world before.

Mephisto was the creator of the sex-changing drug.

After Xue's Law separated and purified the cursed blood, he discovered that the sex-changing drug was essentially just a strange liquid mixed with blood, and did not even contain any trace of magic.

However, the fact that this non-magical creation could so easily change the gender of the locals seems less like a magical phenomenon and more like a higher form of rule.

In other words, after taking the potion, it's as simple as changing the gender of a unit from male to female directly in the background.

This is why Xue's Law remained a mystery after studying it all night.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Su Su, whose stomach was growling with hunger after waking up, immediately picked up a piece of bread and started munching on it, while looking at Xue Dinglu with a puzzled expression.

“I’m researching the connection between gender-swap potions and world consciousness. At the same time, I’m conducting joint tests on gender-swap potions, Mephisto, and world consciousness. Haven’t you noticed that we’ve been in this world for several days, but we’ve never sensed the existence of world consciousness?” Xue Dinglu said.

"Hmm, that makes sense. Planets with life usually have something similar to Margaret, right?" Su Su asked.

"Based on my experience, yes, planets with life have a world consciousness. This is a common phenomenon. Even if there is no world consciousness, there are beings that can assume the responsibilities of world consciousness, such as divine trees in the form of the World Tree."

"And this world definitely has a world consciousness. After all, Mephisto was essentially a transmigrator from Earth, and was even taken away by this world. But neither Faust nor we have discovered the world consciousness of this world." Xue Dinglu took a deep breath, separated the materials for the gender-changing drug, and said,

“And now, this unreasonable magic potion seems to be a rule of the world, the work of the world's consciousness,” Xue said, then removed the other ingredients from the gender-swap drug and randomly added some other plants and wood ash.

After the newly concocted potion appeared in his hand, Xue Luding went out and casually grabbed a male bird, then fed it the new version of the sex-changing drug, but it had no effect.

But yesterday, when Xue Daolu casually knocked out an unknown male nobleman from the Alban family, and secretly dragged him back to his room to feed him this haphazardly prepared sex-changing drug, his body immediately began to change into that of a woman, and his chest seemed to tear his clothes in an instant.

This left Su Su completely dumbfounded.

Now, Xue's Law is beginning to record the rules of sex-changing drugs.

1. Gender-swapping potions contain no trace of magic.

2. Sex-changing drugs are only effective in human males.

3. Men who take sex-changing drugs are no different from women and can get pregnant just like them.

4. Sex-changing drugs do not cause organ degeneration, but rather transform human organs in a way that is similar to distorting them towards female characteristics, thereby achieving a process of sex reassignment in a short period of time.

5、服用性转药之后，阉割后的男性会在30分钟~2小时就迅速转化为女性，而未阉割会在5小时~7小时左右转化。

6. The gender-swap potion causes secondary characteristics to grow abnormally.

……

Therefore, after recording this, Xue's Law had an extremely bold idea.

"The source of the sex-changing drug is actually the world consciousness. It is consciously and forcibly converting all men into women. As for the reason... we don't know," Xue Dinglu said.

"It seems that the root of the chaos in this world does not lie with that apostle, but with the world itself," Xue Dinglu stated, revealing this conclusion.

Su Su was filled with questions and couldn't understand what Xue Dinglu was saying at all. She looked at the bread on the table and decided to eat first.

“It’s okay, you can continue eating,” Xue Dinglu said.

"Oh."

Just as Xue's research on the law was hitting a bottleneck, the entire Albanian family began to get busy, with a large number of servants and even members of the Albanian family busily preparing a venue.

"Hurry up, hurry up! The One God is coming to attend our Alban family's festival today. Get ready quickly, be alert, we can't lose face in front of the God!" an elder said excitedly.

For them, today is truly a good day, both a time for the festival and a day of divine favor.

It's even possible that the gods will show extra favor to the Alban family this time, giving more people the opportunity to join the Hymn Society.

This is another opportunity for their family to rise to prominence.

Xue Lu observed all of this and understood that Faust had succeeded; this was a signal to prepare for an ambush on Mephistopheles at the Olben residence.

But should we really ambush them here?

Xue Dinglu looked at the entire family and saw that if they were to fight among the apostles here, it would at the very least lead to the destruction of the family, and the aftershocks might even cause a lot of damage to Tulip City, or even destroy Tulip City.

Or is it that, for Faust, the lives of the people in Tulip City are not lives?

Perhaps he was right. Faust really didn't consider the people of this city to be living beings. Perhaps he once had that thought, but now he was no different from a demon.

After all, his initial plan was to annihilate his entire race and the planet.

Xue Ding let out a long breath; he understood that now it was time to protect those in the city who deserved protection.

He immediately left the Alban family and went to the Akatsuki's meeting place, instructing the Akatsuki members who had brought him to Tulip City to quickly leave Tulip City with their members and more people, and head to Roland City.

Leave as soon as possible, take nothing with you, and make sure you leave this city before today.

Without hesitation, the members of Akatsuki immediately took away all the downlines they had developed in the past few days, as well as all the other children who could still be saved.

At this moment, the Akatsuki members hidden underground in Tulip City were fully mobilized. After the Orben family tacitly approved the Akatsuki's development in Tulip City, their speed of development and number of members far exceeded the Orben family's expectations in a short period of time.

Because those were the lowest of the low, the lowest of the low, the prostitutes, living in red-light districts and slums, surviving on scraps and the constant patronage of gangsters. And now, hundreds of thousands of people were leaving as quickly as possible, not through the main gate, but through the sewer exits.

This is also the exit that the Akatsuki members found during this period. The dense drainage system that runs through Tulip City has a huge space and more than a dozen exits, all of which are used as flood outlets.

However, in the hands of Akatsuki members, all of these could become secret escape routes.

"Hurry, hurry! Don't bring anything. The chief will ensure you all have supplies. There will be bread and water!"

"Hurry, hurry! Don't take the money, it's useless!"

"Newcomer, quickly take the other children and escape! Tulip City is about to be destroyed; only by escaping can we survive."

"Kid, don't take that bag of rotten meat. We have bread, endless bread. It's too much trouble to pick up that rotten meat!" A squad leader from Akatsuki immediately came up to the child and said fiercely, looking down at him.

"Are you still carrying this rotten flesh because you're afraid we won't give you bread on the way?" she asked angrily.

In this situation, they have all "learned" the art of bread-making, so they don't need to carry any property; it's most convenient to just bring themselves.

Others who wanted to bring money or their meager possessions were stopped, but the little girl refused to put down the rotten flesh in her hands.

"This is... my mother..." The little girl hugged the mangled flesh tightly, seemingly unwilling to let go no matter what was said, and said this.

For a moment, the squad leader fell silent.

She opened her mouth, as if to say something, but no words came out. She watched as large numbers of people began to flee the city through the extensive underground pipe network, and then she saw this stubborn little girl clutching the rotten flesh in her hands.

She said quietly, "Then follow me..."

"Um……"

She led another large group of people and quickly fled towards the pre-arranged exit.

In just half a day, the Akatsuki took away tens of thousands of people, while many more lined up in the sewers waiting for hope.

They gazed in the direction of the Alban family's house in the distance, praying silently.

"Our leader, we must win!"

……

The Alban family put on a grand display, and although it was a last-minute effort, they did their best within the timeframe.

The entire family prepared to welcome Mephisto and their patriarch, while flowers and carpets stretched for kilometers from the main house's entrance to the main hall.

Even at this moment, the elders of the family were extremely excited, looking at the distant sky with longing eyes.

Soon, their wish came true. Two figures holding hands in the distance gradually became clear: the head of the Alban family and their one and only god.

"Welcome, Your Majesty!" the Grand Elder said immediately, kneeling on one knee.

"Welcome, Your Majesty, to the divine realm!"

At this moment, everyone said this and lowered their heads, waiting for the deity to pass by.

Mephisto, seeing this scene, said, "There's really no need for this. Neither now nor in the past would we like this situation."

At this moment, Mephisto was dressed in men's clothing, with neat short hair, a monocle clipped to his eye socket, and a tall and resolute figure.

If they were a bit far apart, the moment Xue Lude saw her, he would think that Mephistopheles was Faust. Their style of dress and temperament were too similar. Xue Lude could even easily hallucinate that she was Faust when they first met.

However, Mephisto looks younger and is also more handsome.

“I won’t ask them to do it, but you know, they feel uneasy if they don’t.” This was the “Harley Alban,” a woman whose soul was controlled by Faust like a doll, saying this with a hint of helplessness, much like a little woman bringing her boyfriend home.

If Xue Zhiqian were to discover this acting skill, he would be amazed, or even horrified.

“Let’s hurry up and finish this, I’m starting to miss our school,” Mephisto said.

“Alright, let’s go to the school then,” Faust said, and immediately made arrangements to clear everyone out of the former site of the mysterious academy. We’ll head there soon.

"Okay." Immediately, members of the Alban family went to clean up the red-light district. Hundreds of years had passed, and the once mysterious academy had long since become a place where prostitutes lived and solicited customers.

The Alban family had no choice but to swallow their anger and accept this demand.

After all, they were the ones who built it up to this state, and now they have to clean up that filthy, chaotic brothel, full of prostitutes, bathhouses, and gangsters, and they only have this much time.

But they had no choice but to do it, even licking it clean.

Xue Dinglu secretly glanced at this enemy out of the corner of his eye: the 12th Apostle, Mephisto.

He began to compare this figure to the taciturn man hidden in the mist within the Mist Council.

It seems to be exactly the same. Xue's law can temporarily confirm that he is the 12th apostle, but he is also among the weakest apostles, having only consumed one fruit.

However, as far as this planet is concerned, he is also its representative. If he uses the planet's authority, he can be an omniscient and omnipotent being within a small scope.

However, what puzzled Xue the most was something else entirely.

“87, 69, 89… How could the measurements be like this…” Xue Dinglu silently calculated this string of numbers in his mind.

Even though Mephisto was dressed in a proper suit, looking like a gentleman, and showing no signs of femininity, Xue Dinglu's "three-dimensional assessment eye," derived from the brave uncle and the old undead, instantly made him realize that something was wrong.

Why does this Mephisto have the measurements of a woman?

Xue Dinglu didn't dare to look directly at him, but he could see through everything just by glancing at him out of the corner of his eye.

The Divine Purifying Demon Eye spun within the pupil, yielding the exact same data once more. Despite the disbelief, Xue's Law could confirm it…

Mephisto is female!
No, that's not right. In Faust's memory, Mephistopheles was definitely male...

There's only one possibility: a gender-changing drug. Oh no, the world's consciousness! (End of Chapter)
