Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 1034: A World Both Familiar and Strange

Facing the unexpectedly appearing golden gate,

Yumo was stunned for several seconds at this strange spatial passage.

Normally, rushing into an unknown spatial passage would undoubtedly be foolish behavior. But now, feeling the hostility gathering from all directions, Yumo seemed to have no time to consider too much.

Although annihilating all these enemies would be but a matter of moments, to avoid making enemies, Yumo was unwilling to do so. Breaking out of the enemy’s encirclement was perhaps Yumo’s primary goal.

Seemingly to evade enemies, or perhaps attracted by the aura on the other side of the spatial gate.

In the next moment, Yumo, holding the three cuties in her arms, suddenly transformed into a red light and charged into the golden gate under the murderous gazes of numerous enemies.

The reinforcing armies around still wanted to attack this Abyssal Lord, but after the black-haired girl rushed in, the golden gate directly closed and, after a wave of energy fluctuations, dissolved into golden particles scattering through the sky...

On the other side, In the blink of an eye, the black-haired girl burst out of the golden gate.

Her bare feet landed on black ground,

That familiar sensation suddenly activated memories deep in Yumo’s brain.

"This, this is... asphalt?"

Of course, such shock was merely the beginning.

When Yumo slowly raised her head to look around, the shock in her heart began rapidly expanding.

At this moment, Yumo discovered... she was in a steel metropolis.

What appeared before Yumo’s crimson eyes was a magnificent city, skyscrapers rising from the ground, neon lights gleaming and flickering under the night sky. The tall buildings were like giants’ arms stretching out, touching the edge of the starry sky, reflecting the city’s night.

The city’s neon forest was brilliantly lit, multicolored lights interweaving into a gorgeous painting, outlining the unique city silhouette. Traffic flowed through busy streets, forming a flowing band of light, like the city’s pulse, beating with vibrant rhythm.

This scene, For Yumo, was both strange and familiar.

Familiar because she once lived in such a world, and strange because... she didn’t know how long it had been since she’d seen such sights.

?!!

This,

This place, is really,

"E-Earth?"

Yumo muttered in a daze, and her crimson eyes filled with shock and doubt.

She had actually returned to this world now? Even standing right in the middle of the road, feeling everything about this familiar world.

However, not only was Yumo surprised, but also the three little ones in her arms who were dumbfounded and looking around. On both sides of the road, nearby pedestrians waiting at traffic lights also turned to stare, looking in disbelief at the black-haired girl.

After all, the black-haired girl’s previous position had been completely empty... and then? A gate mysteriously opened? Then a girl mysteriously appeared?

What, what’s going on?!!

What did we just see?!

Spatial transfer?!

Isn’t, isn’t, isn’t that stuff from novels and movies?!

In an instant, the originally bustling crowd suddenly fell into silence, the air seeming to freeze in that moment.

Faced with this incomprehensible scene, the crowd’s eyes were blank, as if turned to wooden sculptures, standing dumbfounded in place.

Someone’s coffee hung forgotten in the air, drops of coffee beans bouncing in slow motion, forming a suspended scene: a couple about to embrace, but their movements frozen mid-air, their arms seeming to lose support. A child watching the black-haired girl, the ice cream in their hand melting into a colorful puddle, overflowing their palm...

In this moment, the world seemed to have hit pause.

While shocked by the strange spatial rift, people’s hearts also stopped at the sight of her face

This girl was so enchantingly beautiful, like a heavenly fairy.

Under the gentle moonlight, the black-haired girl wore a thin black dress, the soft fabric clinging to her slender figure like a flower blooming in the night. Her beautiful black-to-red gradient hair cascaded over her shoulders, floating slightly in the wind, emanating a mysterious charm.

Her red eyes sparkled with gentle light, like rubies in the dawn, reflecting deep starlight. Below those red eyes, long eyelashes trembled lightly like feathers, outlining captivating eyes carrying an air both stunning and mysterious.

Her bare feet touched the quiet street, her soles warm and delicate like tender sprouts nurtured by the ground.

Though the girl didn’t move, just standing there exuded a dance-like elegance, like a sprite in the night, light and nimble.

The white wolf cub, little bird, and honey-haired little loli in the black-haired girl’s arms also constantly emanated an adorable aura, complementing the black-haired girl’s stunning face to create a dreamlike scene, making people unconsciously lose themselves while arousing deep affection for her.

"Who, who is she?"

"So beautiful, is she an angel?"

"I, I want... to take her home... can I keep her?"

"Also, in this cold weather, isn’t she cold like that?"

"Just a black dress? And no shoes? She looks so... so pitiful..."

"Could, could she be someone who was imprisoned and abused, just escaped? Her face is... covered in dust... her clothes seem a bit tattered too... probably around 16 or 17? Still a child, who could be so cruel."

"Hey hey! That’s not the point!"

After brief stupefaction, the onlookers began discussing amongst themselves. Quick-thinking people even hurriedly took out their phones, opening their cameras, trying to capture this impossibly beautiful girl. Compared to this black-haired girl, world-famous models and actresses... seemed no different from ugly ducklings.

Unfortunately, the nearby pedestrians didn’t get the chance to photograph the girl’s beautiful face.

Because just as they reached for their phones, an untimely figure suddenly rushed out from around the corner,

That, was a huge gray truck that seemed out of control!

The truck drifted around the curve at terrifying speed, unstoppably smashing several cars aside before racing toward the black-haired girl, its roar echoing in the night sky, the friction of tires against ground particularly ear-piercing.

"Fuck!! That, that driver, must be drunk?!!"

In an instant, everyone forgot about taking photos and scattered to the sides.

Seeing the black-haired girl still standing dazed in place, a middle-aged man in a cashmere coat roared:

"Young lady!!! Get out of the way!!!!!!!"

Unfortunately, Yumo gave no response, still intently gazing at the distant skyscrapers and Ferris wheel, seemingly completely unaware of the deadly threat. At once,

Many people covered their faces with their hands, apparently unwilling to witness the brutal scene of flesh and blood about to unfold.

Thinking of such a beautiful girl about to be violently destroyed under the truck, reduced to a pile of meat, everyone felt a wave of regret.

Then, under countless unwilling eyes, the truck violently struck the black-haired girl’s back...

However, what happened next seemed somewhat different from what people had imagined...

BOOM!!!

With a thunderous crash, the wildly braking truck seemed to hit some indestructible heavenly pillar, instantly shattering into pieces. Hood, doors, wheels - everything disintegrated upon impact with the black-haired girl’s body, creating an unprecedented scene of destruction. Fragments rained down like droplets, the night air filled with dust and debris...

While Yumo, the target of the impact, remained standing unmoved...

However, the truck’s impact wasn’t completely without effect,

After being inexplicably hit, Yumo pulled her thoughts back from shock, confusedly scratched her butt, and looked behind her puzzled.

"Hmm?"

"Where did all this scrap metal come from?"
