Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 476: Chapter 239: Abyssal Rift

Abyss Invasion!

These four words made Chu Xiu’s brow twitch.

He immediately got up and looked out the window.

Not far away in the sky, a strange, pitch-black rift appeared without warning and was continuing to expand!

”Unexpectedly, I encountered an Abyss invasion.”

But this doesn’t seem too surprising either.

Ever since he was born until now, eighteen years, he has already encountered one King Level, seven General Levels, and countless Fierce Level Abyss invasions.

It’s just that in recent years, the frequency of Abyss invasions has indeed been increasing rapidly.

Encountering one now seems almost inevitable.

”Little Chu, what are you thinking about! Can’t you hear the alarm blaring? Don’t tell me, you, a Support Profession, plan to go to die!”

Chu Xiu’s Blood Demon Avatar was heavily patted, turning around to see a man in his forties, wearing a white vest, with slightly black teeth, muscles not large but giving off a feeling of being very strong and sinewy.

Chu Xiu usually called him Uncle Zhao. Although Chu Xiu was a Warrior Tier Awakened, if he didn’t enter the Abyss, both his value and status would plummet. Now he only handled the final polishing of finished products at the factory, essentially just a frontline worker with a higher salary. Being friendly and unassuming, even though he had only been there for half a month, he had already blended in with the workers.

Chu Xiu hesitated for a moment, Uncle Zhao said: ”Come on, we have two miles to the shelter. If we don’t hurry and an Abyss creature leaks through, we’re doomed.”

”If you don’t run now, I’m leaving without you!”

Chu Xiu didn’t argue more, just followed Uncle Zhao running toward the shelter.

The so-called shelter was just a nearby subway station, its space specially widened, storing a lot of weapons and water. Each entrance had blast doors for complete sealing.

At this moment, nearby residents were likely heading there, while Low Tier Awakened and security personnel would guard each entrance with firearms.

In this era, every important building had emergency firearms. In the factory where Chu Xiu worked, with fewer than a hundred people, there were three rifles and a shotgun, now all taken by security personnel. Looking forward, Chu Xiu saw the streets full of fleeing crowds.

Fortunately, similar incidents had occurred many times, and there were usually drills. Despite the haste and fear, people were not panicked, jogging toward the subway station amidst the piercing alarms.

But just as everyone arrived and was about to enter the station, a person in military uniform suddenly reached out to stop Chu Xiu.

”Hold on, are you an Awakened?”

Chu Xiu hesitantly nodded, and Uncle Zhao quickly interjected: ”Officer, Little Chu is a Support Profession, he only repairs machinery equipment on site, not much help!”

The officer flipped through something on his wristband, seemingly having received a system alert upon Chu Xiu’s approach. With swift movements, he accessed Chu Xiu’s file.

”Well, although you’ve reached Warrior Tier, indeed it’s more valuable to keep you protected...”

Without more words, the officer waved them off: ”Go down.”

”Yes!”

Chu Xiu and others hurried downstairs, quickly disappearing from the officer’s sight.

”This should be enough...”

At the same moment, in a high-level hotel far away, Chu Xiu himself overlooked the surroundings before retracting his gaze.

He had no intention of acting the hero; the Blood Demon Avatar couldn’t help much anyway, it’s safer to lie low.

As for himself, he was even less willing to expose himself.

Being cautious, he wasn’t even willing to give an Anchor Point; how could he appear in public, especially when some high-tier entity with ill intentions might be lurking in Jiang City, then he’d be in big trouble.

”The military acted swiftly, the anti-air weapons are already deployed, Combat Awakened are also on standby nearby.”

”If the invasion scale isn’t too large this time, it should be manageable.”

”Except...”

Chu Xiu concentrated, gazing into the distance, the rift in the sky growing larger, numerous dark clouds gathering around it. Though there was no lightning, the clouds faintly rumbled and emitted a sharp, eerie scraping noise.

A dense Abyss aura surged from the rift, hanging about five hundred meters above, expanding and contracting as it did, spreading outward with those sweeping clouds black as tar. From afar, it looked just like a giant, bizarre eye!

This scene was unprecedented in previous Abyss invasions, and the rift’s scale was far larger than before!

The populace might not sense it deeply, but the officers below surely knew more keenly, as evidenced by the tension on everyone’s faces, with heavy weaponry being constantly transported nearby. Dozens of armed helicopters rose, encircling the rift.

Below, twin eight-barrel rotary machine guns aimed at the rift, special massive white phosphorus incendiary bombs, and high-explosive rockets fully primed, ready to fire at any moment.

Just as everyone’s nerves stretched to the limit, suddenly, it was as if the rift reached a breaking point, explosively expanding outward! Simultaneously, hordes of Abyss creatures poured out like baby spiders from a burst pregnant spider, densely gushing forth from the rift!

”Open fire!!!”
