Chapter 1858: Actual Combat (Please Subscribe)_1

After snowboarding at high speed for about fifteen minutes, Long Yuxue, who was leading, spoke up to remind them, "We're approaching the Abyssal Cave. Everyone, start slowing down!"

With that, she skillfully controlled her snowboard to decelerate, making it look very crisp and efficient!

Gu Yue also easily controlled her speed on the snowboard, but when it came to Tang Wulin, he seemed a bit panicked…

He hurriedly said, "Well… Commander, you never taught me how to slow down!"

If one rashly tried to decelerate during a high-speed glide, they could very well take a nasty spill!

Long Yuxue sighed somewhat helplessly, just about to go over to help, when…

Gu Yue had already stepped up behind Tang Wulin, her hands around his waist, then tugged at his clothes, passively slowing him down…

Seeing the speed reduce, Tang Wulin breathed a sigh of relief and generously praised, "Gu Yue, we learned to snowboard together, but I didn't expect you to be so incredible!"

But that made sense; since their time at East Sea Academy, he had already noticed that Gu Yue's talent for control was extremely strong!

Long Yuxue, looking at Gu Yue, had a complex expression in her Beautiful Eyes, thinking to herself, "Gu Yue, did you see through my intentions just now and thus took the initiative to slow down Tang Wulin yourself?"

She felt as if she had been misunderstood!

She had no feelings for Jiang Wuyue, and similarly, she had no feelings for Tang Wulin either, who was younger than herself!

Soon after, the three of them stopped outside the massive cave exceeding three thousand meters in diameter…

Tang Wulin exclaimed, "Is this the Abyssal Cave? It's several times larger than I'd imagined!"

Gu Yue pondered, "This must be at least a kilometer, right? But how do we get in?"

Long Yuxue explained, "The way to enter the Abyssal Cave is the same as you encountered that day on the Spirit Ascension Platform. The only difference is that it's much larger and there will be more abyssal creatures!"

After a pause, she added firmly, "If we encounter abyssal creatures inside that we can't handle, we must retreat immediately. Don't hesitate. Understand?"

Tang Wulin and Gu Yue both nodded to show that they understood.

Afterward, Long Yuxue and the two of them approached the huge cavern, cautiously staring into the dark abyss below from which occasional troubling vibrations emanated…

The former pressed a spot on her chest, and in an instant, the metal expanded at an incredibly fast speed, transforming into a small mecha about three meters in length…

Glancing at the two, she said, "You both should be Battle Armor Masters, right? Release your Battle Armor!"

In the Abyssal Cave, many unexpected situations can occur. Releasing the mecha and Battle Armor in advance can save a lot of unnecessary trouble!

No sooner had she spoken than Tang Wulin and Gu Yue swiftly released their Battle Armor, their bodies perfectly encased in sturdy armor that fitted them seamlessly!

This caused Long Yuxue's Beautiful Eyes to light up, "Such exquisite Two-Word Battle Armor, did you forge it yourself?"

Compared to her own mecha, it was complete trash!

Tang Wulin blinked, a bit startled, and said, "Hmm? Commander, if you want, I can forge some for you too. Of course… you just need to pay with Merit Points!"

Long Yuxue decisively chose to pass, "Let's forget about that! My Merit Points are for promotion, and besides… compared to Battle Armor, I'm more accustomed to operating mechas!"

Forging a set of Two-Word Battle Armor would certainly be no easy feat, and the cost in Merit Points would undoubtedly be exorbitant!

Seeing her reaction, Tang Wulin chuckled, "Commander, I was just joking. If you reduce my cut a little, I'll craft a set for you for free, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yue, standing beside him, frowned in displeasure and knocked on his head!

A somewhat confused Tang Wulin asked, "Gu Yue, why did you hit me?"

Gu Yue didn't want to explain either and just hugged her arms, saying coldly, "It's nothing!"

This idiot has just joined the special duty unit and is already trying to please the vice director. Given enough time, some feelings are bound to develop!

Seeing something off about Gu Yue's expression, Long Yuxue sensibly suggested, "Let's not bother with this, shall we? We better just head into the Abyssal Cave!"

Having said that, she leaped into the cave...

Tang Wulin and Gu Yue too flapped their wings behind them and began to descend slowly towards the bottom...

When they landed smoothly, Long Yuxue did not let them take the lead but instead walked at the forefront herself, striding toward the inner passage...

The passage was not entirely dark; a dim light could be seen flickering on and off, clearly indicating that this was a safe zone, and the lights were installed by the Ferocious God Legion!

After proceeding a bit further, they encountered warriors from the Ferocious God Legion, and thanks to the signal from the Blood God Ring of the special duty unit, no one stopped them along the way!

A few minutes later, they arrived at the first passageway platform. To the naked eye, this place was completely different from everything they had encountered before; it had been transformed into a metallic world, with soul tools and metal rooms installed at every location!

Tang Wulin exclaimed, "This... This is even more luxurious than the Ferocious God Legion's dormitory, isn't it?"

Long Yuxue nodded slightly, "Yes, after all, they need to be ready to explore the Abyss at any time, so multiple passageway platforms were built to facilitate the warriors' rest and resupply."

She paused, then explained to the two, "There are hundreds of Abyssal Passages that have been discovered to date, among which the highest-level ones number only thirty-six. They allow passage to the highest level of abyssal creatures!"

"For instance, the Devil Charm that you have encountered is one of the top-tier abyssal creatures. However, that one was merely in its juvenile stage. If it were an adult, just one encounter could determine life or death for us!"

Tang Wulin asked, "Then, Commander, which Abyssal Passage should we head to now?"

Long Yuxue gave him a glance, "Naturally, it's Level C. It's your first time here, and you need to get accustomed. Consider it a direct way to understand abyssal creatures."

Tang Wulin did not argue, and pledged seriously, "Okay!"

After greeting the warriors stationed at the passageway platform, Long Yuxue led the two into an Abyssal Passage that was only about two meters tall...

As they moved on, the flickering lights grew fainter with the increasing distance they covered...

As they walked, Long Yuxue expounded, "Level C Abyssal Passages generally do not have very strong abyssal creatures. With your strength, the two of you can definitely handle it. But remember, you must not show mercy, otherwise, you might kill yourself!"

There had been instances where abyssal creatures that appeared too cute and seemingly without the desire to attack indirectly caused the deaths of warriors from the Ferocious God Legion!

This led the Ferocious God Legion to set a rule; no matter the circumstances, one must not pull punches with abyssal creatures!

Tang Wulin gripped his weapon tightly, "Don't worry, Commander. We won't make such a rookie mistake!"

Gu Yue softly acknowledged with a "Hmm."

No creature that comes out of the Abyss could possibly be benign!

Just at that moment, a peculiar fluctuation suddenly emanated from ahead...

Long Yuxue said calmly, "Prepare for combat!"
