Chapter 504 79: Ideas
Yan Luo sat down on the single sofa in the living room and began talking about the strange things he encountered in the new Abyss.
His actions went incredibly smoothly at first, but by the third day, more and more demons began approaching Yan Luo, and as time went on, their numbers increased, with demons constantly charging at him from all directions, launching fearless attacks.
However, Yan Luo was constantly flying in the sky, and many demons lacked flying and long-range attack capabilities, so even if they approached him, they could only watch helplessly.
"Did the Master of the Abyss perceive your threat and summon all the demons in the Abyss?" Wang Lingyu voiced the question on everyone's mind.
Yan Luo shook his head, "If the Master of the Abyss summoned them, then after I killed the Master of the Abyss, those demons should have dispersed. Even the Master of the Abyss himself was a part of that demon tide, which is why I think it's a strange matter.
"Fortunately, after killing the Master of the Abyss, when I was eliminating the remaining demons, I found signs of the Abyss collapsing, indicating that the Abyss had not escaped its original rules, and the Abyss would still disappear once the Master was killed. That's why I returned from that Abyss."
If it weren't for the imminent destruction of that Abyss, Yan Luo would not have been able to leave.
Since he had promised to resolve that Abyss, he would keep his word.
Sasa thought about the strange matter Yan Luo mentioned, then turned to look at the sisters Julia and Suniya, "Has anything similar occurred over in Alfheim?"
It's been a month since Alfheim fell, and the Elves living on Blue Star have gradually calmed down, realizing that their compatriots in Alfheim can still be rescued.
According to Yan Luo, the Elves in Alfheim have been put to sleep with the help of the Saints and the Evil God, and if they can find a way to separate the spirit consciousness of the Evil God and the Alfheim Elves, they can rescue their compatriots.
It might take a long time, but as Elves, the least they lack is time.
Talking about Alfheim still brings melancholy to the Elves, but they've accepted the reality and nearly all Elves are diligently studying to save their compatriots.
Julia and Suniya have been studying hard lately, but they also understand that combining work and leisure enhances learning and growth, so they occasionally relax.
Upon hearing Sasa's query, Julia and Suniya didn't even think before shaking their heads.
"In Alfheim, there's no Elf who would think of destroying an entire Abyss." Julia said with a peculiar look at Yan Luo.
She really couldn't comprehend what was going on in Yan Luo's mind to come up with a plan to "destroy an entire Abyss."
Sasa sighed and looked at Yan Luo helplessly, saying, "I suspect that trying to destroy the entire Abyss might have triggered its instinctive reaction. After all, we know the Abyss isn't just some ordinary 'alien space,' it's a derivative of the Evil God, perhaps even a tentacle of the Evil God itself. Normally, the Abyss wouldn't have such a reaction; it was your actions that incited the Abyss's extreme response."
Wang Lingyu nodded in agreement, as she thought the same.
Yan Luo rubbed his chin with his right hand, appearing thoughtful.
Those familiar with Yan Luo, Sasa and Wang Lingyu, knew from this expression that he's come up with another bizarre idea.
"Yan Luo, what are you planning to do?" Wang Lingyu asked.
Yan Luo replied frankly, "I'm thinking, what would happen if we destroyed the entire Abyss without killing the Master of the Abyss."
Everyone else's eyes on Yan Luo changed.
What made him think of such a thing?
Although you can't gauge Yan Luo's mind with typical reasoning, since he truly has a mental illness, the thought of destroying the entire Abyss without eliminating the Master is beyond what any ordinary person with a mental illness might consider.
Sasa sighed, asking, "Why do you want to do this? Aren't you worried about provoking the real Evil God behind it?"
"Because I want the Abyss to completely disappear from Blue Star. If we only eliminate the current Abyss without severing its connection to Blue Star, what would we do?" Yan Luo answered, "The Abyss has descended on cities multiple times, and the last instance wasn't even six months ago. One or two occasions could possibly be explained as shenanigans by Abyssal Believers, but if it happens more frequently? We have to find a permanent solution to stop the Abyss from wreaking havoc on Blue Star any longer!"
Now, Yan Luo is the strongest on Blue Star. He loves his homeland and doesn't want Blue Star to be destroyed, which is why he actively sought another way to solve the Abyss problem.
Upon hearing Yan Luo's words, Sasa and Wang Lingyu exchanged glances.
Suniya said openly, "Since you thought of this solution, why not try it on an Abyss? Without experimentation, how would you know if it's feasible?"
Yan Luo agreed with Suniya; without testing, no one would know if the method might work.
Thus, Yan Luo approached Wu Zechuan, asking him to help find an Abyss that met the criteria for destruction.
At that moment, Wu Zechuan was in a meeting with other regional Hunter's Guild leaders.
Due to the Abyss incident in Kode City, the United Government had put the complete elimination of the Abyss and severing its connection with Blue Star on the agenda.
If it were only the Abyss event in Lingquan City, they could still view it as coincidental and assume that the Abyss wouldn't descend again in other cities.
However, now that Kode City has experienced such an event, they can no longer convince themselves otherwise.
The United Government's members live in cities, and with two Abyss descents in urban areas without a pattern, who knows if the Abyss might appear in their town or neighborhood?
Because of this, the United Government's members were even a bit anxious when deliberating this issue.
That's why Wu Zechuan was involved in this meeting.
After hearing Yan Luo's intention, Wu Zechuan marveled at Yan Luo's current strength and immediately brought it up in the meeting.
The attendees were quite shocked.
[Yan Luo wants to destroy an entire Abyss without killing the Master?]
[Is this something humans can accomplish?]
[He seemed to use a similar approach in dealing with the Abyss in Kode City, except he killed the Master there, and now that Abyss is in a state of collapse.]
The Guild leaders actively discussed this among themselves.
Wu Zechuan listened to their discussion, then suddenly looked towards a few figures in the far end and asked, "'Undersea Abyss' should be nearing the criteria for destruction, right?"
That's an Abyss with all entrances located underwater, containing an ocean dotted with a few islands and limited land.
The Undersea Abyss appeared almost forty years ago, so if you consider time, it indeed meets the criteria for destruction.
Reluctantly, the Guild leaders from exploration towns near the entrances of the Abyss nodded to acknowledge this.
Once an Abyss is destroyed, exploration towns are retired, and their power diminishes.
Unfortunately, since the United Government had put 'complete Abyss elimination' on the agenda, no matter how unwilling they are, it's to no avail.
The only difference is which Abyss gets eliminated first and which second.
"Then let's launch a campaign against the Undersea Abyss!" Wu Zechuan said with a smile.
Other Guild leaders chimed in one after another. Someone has to take the fall, and having the Undersea Abyss in the forefront would postpone their exploration towns' shutdowns, bringing them many benefits.
Thus, the outcome of the meeting was set.
After exiting the virtual meeting room, the projection on the retina faded, and Wu Zechuan reclined against his chair.
Yan Luo's idea is quite intriguing; right now, no one on Blue Star knows what destroying an Abyss without killing its Master could entail.
If Yan Luo's operation is successful, the impact could be profound.
