From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 44 Quenching Castle Opens Its Doors

After posting a transaction message about "Weapon Quenching" on the Crystal Core Dark Network, Lu Heng checked his private messages for a while. Finding them to be all inquiries, he decided to go to sleep.

The next day, he woke up and opened the Crystal Core Dark Network to find that his private messages had piled up to 99+.

He clicked to check and ignored all inquiries, directly blocking anyone who asked multiple times.

After sifting through over a hundred messages, he finally found one that was useful.

"I have the quenching materials ready, money is not an issue; I hope we can meet face to face."

Lu Heng was quite satisfied with this private message. Each word was to the point, concise and clear.

This was the kind of party B he liked to deal with.

Lu Heng replied with a message: "Tonight at eight o'clock, Coastal Century Bridge, ninth bridge hole. Bring the quenching materials, only one person will be received."

...

In the Blue Sea International Villa District.

As the noon approached, a young man with panda eyes got out of bed and turned on his laptop to check if there were any private message replies.

He had waited until midnight the day before without receiving any replies, resulting in insomnia.

After logging into the Crystal Core Dark Network, he saw an inbox notification with a red "1".

This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

He quickly opened the private message and raised his eyebrows; the reply was also succinct, directly setting the time, place, and requirements.

This further indicated that it was the real deal.

The young man immediately made a call to arrange the quenching materials and cash.

In the evening.

A sedan car stopped on the riverbank at the Century Bridge.

In the back seat, there was a young man and a middle-aged man.

The young man's name was Lin Zeyu, 23 years old, the young master of the wealthy Coastal Lin Family and also one of the first Superpower Users to be conscripted into the Abyss Battlefield.

After a countdown for conscription appeared, the Lin Family used their connections to find three Superpower Users with the same countdown and spent money to increase their levels to accompany Lin Zeyu into the Abyss Battlefield.

As a result, Lin Zeyu's first experience on the Abyss Battlefield was very smooth, completing two Challenge Tasks and reaping a rich harvest.

The Lin Family had figured out the rules of conscription on the Abyss Battlefield early on during the period of Abyss Descent.

Now it was seven o'clock, not yet the agreed time, but the Lin Family had arrived early at the Coastal Century Bridge.

A bodyguard in a black suit approached the car, knocked on the window, and once it was rolled down, he bowed and said, "Young master, we have confirmed that there are only eight bridge holes in Century Bridge, with no ninth hole. We have also checked with the bridge management, and the original design of the Century Bridge included only eight holes."

Lin Zeyu frowned and said, "The meeting is at the ninth bridge hole. There's no mistake."

The middle-aged man sitting beside him pondered, "Could it be a scammer? Should we have them accompany you later?"

Lin Zeyu couldn't help but feel that the other party did not sound like a scammer and firmly said, "The other party stated they would only meet one person; I'll go myself."

The middle-aged man looked towards the bodyguard outside the car and said, "Double-check the surrounding area of the bridge to ensure it's safe."

"Yes." The bodyguard bowed in acknowledgment and went on to take care of it.

...

The time reached seven fifty.

Lin Zeyu got out of the car with two briefcases and walked under the Century Bridge.

Since there was no ninth bridge hole, he could only stand under the eighth and wait.

After about five minutes.

A voice came from behind him: "Are you the one looking to get your weapon quenched?"

Lin Zeyu shivered and quickly turned around, only to see a cloaked figure standing in the shadow of the bridge hole, his features unclear.

With the support of his family, he was now a Level 10 Superpower User whose Perception was much higher than that of an ordinary person.

Normally, he would have noticed if someone sneaked up on him from behind, no matter how quietly they approached.

But now, he had absolutely no clue how this person in a cloak had appeared.

He was stunned for a moment and quickly nodded: "It's me. We agreed to meet at the ninth bridge hole, but the Century Bridge only has eight."

"Come with me," said the cloaked figure before turning and walking toward a wall of the bridge hole.

Lin Zeyu followed with suspicion and then watched in disbelief as the figure walked into the wall.

With his heart pounding, Lin Zeyu became even more certain that this person was remarkable and hurried forward, stepping through the wall after him.

The moment he stepped through, he was a bit worried, but as he crossed over, he entered a Different Space.

...

Lin Zeyu had just vanished near the wall of the bridge tunnel when the dozen bodyguards stationed at a distance swiftly rushed over, searching for any trace of him.

They reached out to knock on the wall, feeling every inch of it, but it was just solid wall, bereft of anything unusual.

The middle-aged man from the car also walked into the bridge tunnel, his expression serious as he examined the situation.

The lead bodyguard reported, "Mr. Yu, we just saw the young master walk into this wall, and then he disappeared."

The middle-aged man walked over and pushed against the wall himself, but couldn't detect any abnormalities.

He speculated in his mind that it might be some sort of magician's trick.

If the other party really was a swindler using such tactics to kidnap someone, things could turn very bad.

He swiftly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number, but the phone indicated the call could not be connected.

Frowning in thought for a moment, he ordered in a deep voice, "Spread out and search! If it is some kind of magician's trick, they couldn't have gone far. We must find him."

"Yes, sir!"

The bodyguards dispersed in all directions, combing every possible hiding spot in the vicinity of Century Bridge.

...

Elsewhere.

With one step across the wall, Lin Zeyu entered another strange space.

Naturally, this place was Quenching Castle.

The person in the cloak was walking in front, heading toward the interior of the castle.

He called out, "Wait... wait a minute. This is..."

Naturally, the cloak-clad man was none other than Lu Heng.

Lu Heng wasn't ready to reveal his identity so soon, so he donned a Quenching Master's robe and also wore a cat-faced mask.

At his question, Lu Heng turned around and said, "Welcome to Quenching Castle. Also, a reminder for next time—come alone, or Quenching Castle won't open its doors for you again."

Lin Zeyu was taken aback upon hearing this.

He could imagine that his uncle and bodyguards outside must be frantic, probably turning Century Bridge upside down searching for him.

He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry. Before I came in, I made it clear to them to wait for me outside. I'll call them right now and tell them to go back."

Lu Heng raised his hand to stop him, "No need. There's no mobile connection here. Come inside with me."

Entering the castle's reception hall, Lu Heng took his place in the main seat, then gestured for Lin Zeyu to sit.

Lin Zeyu had seen his fair share of impressive scenes, but stepping through a wall into another world was still a staggering experience.

He sat down and placed two briefcases on the coffee table, saying, "I've brought the items with me."

Lu Heng said, "First, take out the weapon and the quenching materials for Quenching."

Lin Zeyu opened the first briefcase and took out a revolver that gleamed with silver light.

The revolver was a famous collector's edition known as the "Silver Python," entirely bright silver and quite eye-catching.

Lu Heng picked up the Silver Python Revolver and checked the specs in hand.

[Silver Python Revolver (Abyss Integration)]

[Item Level: C-Level]

[Specifications: Length 29.1 cm, Weight 1.3 kg, Bullet Capacity: 6 rounds]

[Attribute: Attack Power 155 (using standard 12.7mm bullets)]

[Evaluation: Made from an alloy, this revolver packs a formidable punch, capable of killing a ferocious beast with a single shot. The power of firearms depends on the weapon and bullets, unable to benefit from the user's Strength attribute.]

The gun was good and had powerful firepower, but the downside was that it only had a capacity for six bullets.

Against a Superpower User, there was virtually no time to reload.

Of course, if one had the confidence to take down an opponent within six bullets, this revolver was indeed formidable.

Moreover, this revolver had already been integrated with Divine Energy for Law Integration, making it viable to bring into the Abyss World.

This meant that 600 points of Divine Energy had been spent on this gun.

Acquiring Divine Energy was extremely difficult, and many Power Users might not amass that much even after two or three battles.

Of course, for major forces, there were shortcuts.

Divine Energy was bound to Power Users and couldn't be transferred, but items that had undergone basic Law Integration were external possessions, which anyone could take.

Thus, large forces could obtain Abyss-integrated weapons and equipment through trading methods.
