Abyss Sequence-Chapter 458 - 33: The End of the Conquest Battle
"Hold on! Even if a catastrophe-level demon appears, don’t be afraid. A Sequence Two Hunter is coming to support us!"
Behind the front lines at Bright Silver No. 3, the fully-armed Huang Changfei was encouraging the Hunters at the front.
If things went south, he would personally join the battlefield to boost morale.
But for now, the situation was still manageable, as most of the Hunters supporting them this time were quite formidable, many of them Sequence Three.
Even though there were numerous city-breaking level demons in the Bright Silver Abyss, they had plenty of Sequence Three Hunters on their side, leaving no room for fear.
Moreover, there was a Sequence Two Hunter stationed behind them, so even if a catastrophe-level demon emerged, they didn’t need to worry about getting slaughtered.
Should a catastrophe-level demon squeeze through the Abyss entrance, their Sequence Two Hunter would force it back into the Abyss, battling it there.
Catastrophe-level demons had yet to appear, so the Sequence Two Hunter was staying out of the fray, conserving energy for the most powerful demons.
The demon outflow effect during the Abyss campaign was more terrifying than demon tides because demon tides were always orchestrated by a Master of the Abyss, while the demon outflow effect was a spontaneous action by lower demons.
To avoid being destroyed alongside the Abyss, demons all wanted to escape, creating the outflow effect.
No matter where they were, demons would definitely surge towards the few Abyss entrances, racing desperately, fearing that any delay would trap them inside.
In such situations, several exploration towns built around Abyss entrances would organize Hunters to resist the demon invasion, preventing their escape into the wilds.
As Huang Changfei was shouting, he suddenly received a message, and after a quick look, his face lit up with joy.
"There are fewer of them! The demons coming out of the Abyss entrance have decreased!"
There were only two reasons this could happen: either the Master of the Abyss was dead, and without the connection, demons no longer sensed the impending crisis of the Abyss’s destruction; or a powerful demon had monopolized the teleportation capacity meant for lower demons, trying to come through the entrance.
Either possibility was good news for Bright Silver No. 3.
The Sequence Two Hunter supporting Bright Silver No. 3 perked up, watching the Abyss entrance.
As soon as a catastrophe-level demon showed up, he would act immediately, sending it back into the Abyss.
No one expected Yan Luo to present a third answer.
The Abyss entrance, like frosted glass, rippled as a relatively small figure compared to the surrounding giants stepped out.
Facing the demons blocking his way, Yan Luo clenched his right fist and punched fiercely.
Despite the slanted shields, most of the lower demons were destroyed by magnetic force, and apart from a few city-breaking level demons, all others perished under this punch from Yan Luo.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned, frozen in place.
Even the Sequence Two Hunter couldn’t help but blink hard, confirming he wasn’t hallucinating.
Even a Sequence Two couldn’t do such a thing.
For Sequence Two, clearing demons crowded in the streets was simple, they could even kill them all unharmed, but they couldn’t wipe out the vast majority of demons with just one strike.
The remaining demons were top-tier among city-breaking level, yet even their slanted shields had been depleted.
This meant Yan Luo’s punch not only broke through all the demons’ shields but also had extra force to kill the majority of them.
How strong was Yan Luo now?
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and kill these demons."
Yan Luo reminded them loudly.
People woke as if from a dream, realizing they were still on the battlefield, hastily grabbing heavy weaponry to fire at the few remaining city-breaking level demons on the street.
Under the onslaught of a dozen machine guns and several dozen rockets, the remaining city-breaking level demons didn’t even have time to wail before being killed.
Huang Changfei swallowed, gazing at the Abyss entrance behind Yan Luo.
No more demons emerged from there.
Even if the Master of the Abyss was killed, the nearby demons wouldn’t immediately disperse; they’d just stop incoming reinforcements.
During the recent demon blockade, demons pouring from the entrance didn’t gradually thin but suddenly diminished in number, leading the supporting Sequence Two Hunter to suspect a catastrophe-level demon was more likely.
But looking at the situation now... there might not be any demons left in there.
If there were still demons on the other side, Yan Luo couldn’t have walked out; his emergence from the Bright Silver Abyss meant there were no more demons there.
The demon outflow effect indicated Yan Luo had indeed clashed with the Master of the Abyss, but now, seeing Yan Luo intact before them, it also suggested...
"The Bright Silver Abyss has been conquered?" Huang Changfei whispered softly.
The Master of the Abyss was also a demon, and demons never fled once engaged in battle with humans—it was always a fight to the death.
Knowing Yan Luo had battled the Master of the Abyss, and seeing him return to Blue Star, didn’t it mean he had successfully killed the Master of the Bright Silver Abyss?
"Everyone!"
Yan Luo, with hands clasped behind his back, shouted to the Hunters on the street, "I have successfully killed the Master of the Bright Silver Abyss, and the Bright Silver Abyss has begun to collapse!"
This statement instantly ignited the Hunters’ emotions.
"Whoa-oh-oh!"
"It’s over! Hahaha, it’s finally over!"
"Isn’t this a bit quick? Less than half a day has passed."
"Hey, why think so much? Would Yan Luo lie to us?"
"If you don’t believe it, you can go see the Abyss collapse with your own eyes, right?"
People cheered, celebrated, and sang.
Some rushed onto the street, surrounding Yan Luo, asking questions endlessly.
"Yan Luo, how did you defeat the Master of the Abyss?"
"How strong was the Master of the Abyss? Catastrophe-level? Or had it reached Doomsday level?"
"Don’t talk nonsense; the Master of the Bright Silver Abyss wasn’t that strong."
"Can you tell us about the battle?"
"By the way, after the Master of the Abyss died, what materials did it produce?"
Yan Luo raised his hand, signaling for silence; with everyone asking, he couldn’t answer.
Once they quieted down, Yan Luo began to speak: "The Master of the Bright Silver Abyss had indeed reached the Doomsday level. It might be the first Doomsday-level demon born since modern Blue Star encountered the Abyss, exceedingly powerful. As for the battle, I’ll organize the fight recordings with the Master of the Abyss and upload them online for you to download and watch."
This statement caused a stir.
"What? It was Doomsday-level?"
"Wait, if the Master of the Abyss was Doomsday-level, does that mean..."
"Yan Luo could defeat a Doomsday-level demon?"
"No wonder he just wiped out those demons with one punch!"
People looked at Yan Luo in awe, finding it hard to believe.
After all, everyone knew Yan Luo had only been a Hunter for a bit over a year; when he started, he was an ordinary person.
Had Yan Luo really gone from an ordinary person to someone who could defeat a Doomsday-level demon in just one year?
It seemed preposterous!
But Yan Luo rarely lied; would he lie about this?
Earlier, he lied to protect himself, so what benefit would lying bring him now? 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
"Yan Luo."
Huang Changfei squeezed through the crowd, approaching Yan Luo to ask solemnly, "Are you sure you killed the Master of the Abyss?"
Yan Luo nodded, "Positive."
As he left the Bright Silver Abyss, it had already begun collapsing, a phenomenon only occurring when the Master of the Abyss dies.
Taking a deep breath, Huang Changfei turned to inform the heads of the Hunter’s Guilds in other exploration towns around Bright Silver Abyss.
Telling this to Hunters in other exploration towns could boost morale, helping struggling frontlines hold, perhaps even counterattack.
The Master of the Abyss’s death meant no more demon reinforcements; they just needed to hold on to survive this campaign.
The Bright Silver Abyss campaign was over; now, they were merely wrapping up.
Yan Luo pushed through the crowd, contacting Wu Zechuan as he headed to his previous hotel.
He planned to pack up and return to No.2 Crimson.
The Bright Silver Abyss campaign had ended, giving him no reason to stay at Bright Silver No. 3, especially since the exploration town would soon vanish, with residents relocating to the city.
