Meteor Fall Master in the 'Starry Abyss'

Chapter 1033 - 68: So, You Also...

The Caramel Snail turned around, facing away from Saga Qi, standing there for a long time.

"I’ve said so much, but my purpose is simple: Lord Caramel Snail, you need not feel anxious and guilty. Whether it’s Miss Azi or myself, many people care for you, placing your joys and sorrows before their own lives—if you truly feel uneasy, then you should carry the will of the deceased and live well."

Saga Qi hunched over and slowly sat down, his voice incredibly aged:

"Never forget to fight, Lord Caramel Snail..."

His voice grew fainter, and at the same time, ripples emanated from Caramel Snail’s figure.

[The Lai Anding Medical Protocol is now in effect]

’I’ve been avoiding all along.’

[The contract with the Conscripted Body ’Saga Qi’ has been terminated]

’Dare not face the facts, dare not respond to the feelings of those around, dare not explore the unknown. Afraid of losing everything because of it.’

[A suitable conscripted body has been found for you]

’But if you do nothing, just stand still, remain closed off, you’ll only lose more.’

[Will you Descend?]

’Now, I must make a decision; too many have sacrificed, someone must bear the responsibility and lead everyone forward.’

[Descent complete]

[Welcome back to the Starry Abyss, Descender]

The Caramel Snail opened his eyes, the bones on the face of the newly conscripted body shifted and fluctuated rapidly, eventually transforming to resemble ’Jiaozi Niu’ in real life.

He glanced around, currently in an alley inside the Valkyrie Fortress, the new conscripted body was a wandering mercenary, bearing several bullet holes, most likely shot by a backstab.

——Great, just saved him the trouble of taking the teleport gate again.

The Caramel Snail straightened up, and as he walked out of the alley, he had already donned his gear neatly, the Silver Hunter’s badge hanging out openly, attracting strange gazes from those around.

"Hey, isn’t that... why is he here at Valkyrie Fortress?"

"Damn, isn’t that Saga Qi? He killed 201 Pseudo-Humans all by himself, a real butcher."

"Heard he even killed a pet dog belonging to a Ruins Flame Society Senator, ridiculous, he’s not even Zeta Rank and already a Silver Hunter."

The Caramel Snail paid no heed to the surrounding gossip, proceeding towards his target destination, checking the system messages along the way:

[Global Notice: Due to irresistible forces, the port leading from the Galactic Eye Dark Star Field to the Border Abyss is currently closed]

[We are actively resolving this issue, we hope all players will first enjoy the Layer Abyss gameplay content.]

[Wishing you pleasant exploration—Qiqiao Network Operations Planning, Lai Anding]

"...The lockdown, it’s unsealable."

The Caramel Snail sneered contemptuously, pushing open the doors of the Heroic Spirit Bar—today the bar was reserved, with only a handful of people present.

However, they were all familiar faces.

"Yo, long time no see, Caramel." Yutianxiao waved a hand.

"Mr. Snail, you’ve arrived." Lanan put down the tablet, politely greeting: "The new conscripted character looks handsome."

"You’re late, Jiaozi Niu." Long Yuqiong said flatly: "But Night Fighting Sword, that idiot, is even slower than you, no need to rush."

"Kiddo, what have you been up to lately!" Xia Yubing huffed and puffed, rushing over: "Come on in, sit down, everyone’s waiting for you."

Severston shrugged, making room for a seat, folding his arms:

"Uh, actually, not everyone is here yet."

"Looks like we have quite a few people this time, all six Ace Bros of the Pathway are here."

The Caramel Snail had just sat down, glanced around at everyone, and said:

"Where’s the True General? He should be the most punctual."

"A’zhen said he had to deal with something, he’ll be here soon." Lanan said: "He messaged that we should start the meeting without him."

"Alright then, regarding our submersion plan this time—"

The Caramel Snail was about to speak but was cut off by Long Yuqiong.

"Let’s be straightforward."

Long Yuqiong said:

"We need to charge into the Narrative Civilization and directly seize their port for submersion."
