柔术美女全婐体一丝不一挂

Chapter 401

The Abyss.

That was an evil place, renowned in the multiverse as the counterpart to Hell.

Full of danger, despair, fear, and curses, it was a place so treacherous that even deities dared not venture recklessly into its depths.

In the depths of the Abyss, there existed countless creatures and chaos. Some were even larger than planets, and some dared to challenge the mighty immortal deities high above!

Legend has it that deep within the Abyss, something unimaginably terrifying dwells!

Mu Ling fell silent for a moment before answering,

"I know that a portion of the Black Abyss Deep Sea is located in the Abyss, as the Abyss is a special realm that is one of the few planes able to sustain its existence."

"From what I know, there are many chaotic races living in the abyss, and the strongest among them even possess god-like powers... Even someone as respected as you, there would probably be danger in going to the abyss."

Bai Yan nodded, fully agreeing with Mu Ling\'s words.

"You\'re right, the abyss is indeed incredibly dangerous."

But soon, he expressed his own opinion.

"But the abyss is practically an infinitely vast space, and we merely went there to investigate the nearby areas... We aren\'t seeking to conquer or annihilate the abyss, even if there are enemies we cannot defeat within it, we have no need to provoke them."

After Bai Yan finished speaking, he added another sentence with high emotional intelligence.

"Of course, the abyss is indeed very dangerous, you are absolutely right... If you don\'t want to go, I won\'t force you."

Deep down, Mu Ling understood that she wasn\'t afraid to venture into the abyss, she was just worried about herself as a fellow traveler.

Mu Ling paused for a moment, shook her head, and continued, "I\'m not actually afraid, I just hope to be well-prepared... Actually, I\'m really curious to know, what does the great Babel Tower Savior think?"

Hmm, since you asked sincerely.

"Searching for the truth is what He desires..." Bai Yan replied calmly.

"Okay, let\'s go," said the friend.

Mu Ling no longer hesitated. She made up her mind to venture into the legendary realm of evil alongside the "Profligate" senior.

Let\'s find out!

"The Abyss"

Bai Yan raised the peculiar talisman in his hand, took a deep breath, and began to silently chant in an ancient and mysterious language.

This is the Abyss language commonly used by the Doomsday Race, its existence spans through an untraceable period of time, and its creator cannot be identified. However, one thing is known to all: this language possesses a mysterious power.

Gradually, strange things started to happen.

"In the midst of darkness," the numerous eyes shrouded by black fingers on the talisman began to slowly open.

It was a deep black eye, with a blood-red pupil at its center.

A twisted darkness radiated from the pupil.

In the next moment, an almost invisible door appeared. It was nearly completely flat and emitted a faint gray glow.

Mu Ling slowly extended her finger and touched the gray surface.

She took a deep breath and felt a peculiar atmosphere emanating from the mysterious surface. Merely touching it made her instinctively want to step away.

Finally, Mu Ling said calmly, "This is the door that connects to the Abyss, one of the most evil and dangerous areas in the multi-dimensional universe... Let\'s go inside."

Bai Yan nodded gently as he stepped forward.

He was about to take a step ahead of Mu Ling and enter, but he was suddenly stopped by her as she reached out her hand and firmly grabbed his arm.

"Wait a moment."

Bai Yan turned around and looked back, only to see Mu Ling shaking her head.

Mu Ling quickly spoke up, "I\'ve heard that the Abyss is constantly changing. If two people enter the Abyss at the same time, but they don\'t stick together or tie themselves with a rope, they will end up in different places."

She was a very proper crime-hunter. She had taken a few lessons specifically to learn about the Abyss and Hell.

So, she knew some characteristics about the Abyss.

Oh, now I understand.

Bai Yan was about to say, "Oh, now I understand," but considering his identity as a profligate senior, he had to forcefully change his words and said, "Um, I know... Let\'s go together."

Mu Ling didn\'t notice the problem and nodded.

So, Bai Yan allowed Mu Ling to take his arm, and the two of them entered the abyss together.

--

In the gloomy sky, with no presence of the sun, twisted pale clouds gathered into terrifying and horrifying faces one after another, as if constantly silently screaming.

The desolate land covered with gray and withered trees was made up of black rocks, all of which emitted intense heat. If an ordinary person were to step on them directly, their shoes would start to burn, and their feet would be instantly scalded.

After a gray door emerged, Bai Yan and Mu Ling, holding onto his arm, appeared here.

"Turns out, this place is a deep abyss."

Mu Ling released her hand, no longer holding onto Bai Yan, but instead gazed at World in front of her.

Here, she could feel a great sense of fear and despair.

The vast world seemed to completely lack vitality, and there was no hope to be found.

"Look, that fortress up ahead is probably the place we need to go."

Bai Yan pointed his finger and there, behind the countless gray, withered trees, stood a pitch-black fortress made of steel.

Mu Ling furrowed her brow and asked, "What place is that?"

Bai Yan seemed to have known everything in advance and replied, "The teleportation point beyond the black remnants, it can\'t be too far from the Doomsday Race... It should be right here."

In reality, through the tasks presented to him in the game "Babel Tower," Bai Yan had already known where he was supposed to go, thanks to a "spoiler" about the underlying rules.

The fortress ahead is also known as the "Ironcore Fortress," which serves as a Doomsday Race stronghold.

The group that successfully crossed over to Noah\'s Air Alliance in Tatsumi City was Doomsday Race members. They originated from the Ironcore Fortress, and its current leader, "Ming," is a formidable ancient and terrifying warrior from the Doomsday Race.

It was a powerful chaotic race that worshiped the mighty Black Abyss Deep Sea. In the depths of the abyss, there stood a colossal giant, standing nearly a thousand meters tall, with pitch-black skin and a hundred arms. This incredible being possessed powers close to that of a god, known as "Nullify."

It had existed in the abyss for tens of thousands of years, hoping to harness the power of the Black Abyss Deep Sea in order to reach the realm of the true gods.

No matter what, the current Bai Yan and Mu Ling were not going to provoke this thing.

Even though the Babel Tower was already a powerful and mysterious organization to Noah, in the vast and endless multiverse, among countless extraordinary beings, the people of the Babel Tower were still just a drop in the ocean.

Since the birth of the multiverse, for countless years, many powerful beings have emerged and perished, yet none of them could escape the cycle of life and death.

Only by becoming a god!

Only then could they attain eternal souls, no longer mere ants bound by death, nor insignificant specks in the infinite universe.

The two of them quickly arrived at Ironcore Fortress, utilizing the potent spell effect of "Mysterious Magic" through Power Possession. They seamlessly entered the fortress as if they were invisible, completely unnoticed by the guards and various surveillance tools.

The structure of this fortress resembled a medieval castle, but it was even more colossal, like a miniature city. A network of interconnected roads led to countless areas and rooms, the extent of which was unknown.

Inside the Ironcore Fortress, there were many members of the Doomsday Race, people of all ages and genders, numbering at least a hundred thousand.

Inside the fortress, it seemed that a very strict hierarchy was in place, and among the Doomsday Race, those who carried weapons held a noticeably higher status.

Some members of the Doomsday Race were peculiar and monstrous in appearance. Although humanoid creatures were more common, they were still only a minority among them.

All the members of the Doomsday Race shared a common trait.

That is, they had black patterns on their skin.

And some of the slaves captured by the Doomsday Race didn\'t have the black patterns on their bodies. These people were enslaved by the Doomsday Race, forced to work with chains around their necks, and kept their heads down while working.

One of the slaves just glanced up at the Doomsday Race member holding a weapon, and in response, the Doomsday Race member angrily hacked off one of the slave\'s hands.

Even though his arm was chopped off, the slave still crazily kowtowed, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.

Mu Ling, upon witnessing this scene, felt a surge of anger within her heart.

Even though she knew that this place wasn\'t Noah\'s world but the most dreadful abyss, and even though she was aware that not all of the slaves captured by the Doomsday Race were necessarily good people.

But Mu Ling was still very angry, unable to bear witnessing the mistreatment of the weak.

"Calm down."

Bai Yan held her and shook his head.

"Don\'t startle the snake by beating the grass."

"I understand," said Mu Ling, her eyes still filled with anger, and Bai Yan noticed it.

He said, "We need to search for some clues,"

So, Bai Yan and Mu Ling explored one room after another, inside the fortress. The rooms had a simple style, with no unnecessary decorations or furniture.

It is evident that the Doomsday Race doesn\'t pursue enjoyment.

They discovered many slaves and noticed that these slaves were mostly under the control of the Doomsday Race. They were gathering special black ore from the surroundings, yet they had no knowledge of its unique purpose.

"Wait a moment."

Bai Yan closed his eyes and reached out to touch the scorching walls of the fortress. He began to unleash his ability of "Connection."

In his mind, scenes of flashbacks arose.

"Um, I understand."

After Bai Yan opened his eyes, a smile appeared on his face. He gently nodded and pointed to the spot right below.

"The thing we are looking for should be right at the bottom of the fortress."

"The very bottom?"

Mu Ling slightly paused, then she heard Bai Yan continue speaking.

"Hmm, the leader of the Ironcore Fortress, \'Ming\', is right there. The person sent to Tatsumi City by the Doomsday Race is her. If we can find her, we will be able to understand the whole situation."

"I want to free the slaves inside this fortress," Mu Ling suddenly spoke up.

"Good."

Bai Yan had long been aware of Mu Ling\'s thoughts, but he didn\'t find it strange. Calmly, he said, "Since you want to do this, I will accompany you."

Mu Ling looked at the elder "Profligate" and somehow felt familiar with the look in his eyes, but couldn\'t recall where exactly this sense of familiarity came from.

(Translated by Gravity Tales )

"Thank you."

She sincerely thanked Mr. Profligate, this elder was truly very tolerant of her.

"Elder... Have we met before?"

Mu Ling couldn\'t help but curiously ask.

Bai Yan immediately responded, "Hmm? Haven\'t we met many times? I have been involved in many missions, and I also appeared at the Babel Tower meeting... Did you lose your memory?"

Mu Ling shook her head and gathered her thoughts before saying, "No, I mean apart from those occasions... I always feel like you are very familiar with me."

"Hmm..."

Bai Yan fell silent, and Mu Ling was truly perceptive.

As their strength grew and they spent more time together, the difficulty of continuing to play the game of deception increased day by day.

Perhaps if things continue like this, someday my true identity will be exposed.

However, even if Mu Ling\'s true identity is revealed, her loyal attitude will not change. There is no need to worry about that.

Is it truly the right time now?

"If that\'s the case, then I have no choice but to tell you the truth."

Bai Yan had a smile on his face, and he let out a sigh.

"I thought I could hide it from you all along, but I didn\'t expect you to figure it out so quickly."

He looked at Mu Ling with a serious gaze and spoke slowly, "Next, I am going to tell you the truth, something very astonishing. I\'m afraid you won\'t believe it at first."

Hmm.

Indeed, it was necessary to take this step.

Bai Yan also knew in his heart that blindly fooling around was not a solution.

Mu Ling held her breath and gazed at Senior Profligate before her.

At that moment, she couldn\'t help but feel like she was about to discover some unimaginable, enormous secret!

Bai Yan, in a way he had never been before, spoke with utmost seriousness, every word carefully pronounced, "Why do you feel familiar to me, and why do I know your preferences? The truth is, all of this is because..."
