Abyss Sequence-Chapter 395 - 52: Frozen

What a powerful presence!

What a terrifying woman!

Just by watching, Walter couldn’t help but clench his teeth and fists.

The strength Yulia displayed made him anxious, made his heart pound.

Even though he was the powerful one now, possessing eight engravings, while Yulia had only five.

But in terms of presence, Walter was far from a match for Yulia.

Should he escape?

Although the Vajra sequence wasn’t good at speed, the eight-engraving Vajra sequence could also erupt with great power, allowing Walter to burst forth at an extremely fast pace for a short time.

Walter questioned himself, what’s the answer?

A moment later, Walter took a deep breath, scowled with rage, and with muscles bulging, charged towards Yulia.

The answer was—

No!

Yulia was a roadblock on the path forward for the leader, obstructing ’Father’ from leading Blue Star into the future, towards the distance.

To repay the debt of a life saved, the care and upbringing, even at the cost of his life, he had to kill Yulia here!

Walter leapt up violently, slamming down his heavy fist.

Such an amateurish fighting technique?

Yulia’s one-eyed gaze focused, and she sidestepped to leap away from her original position.

Boom—!

Walter’s figure crashed to the ground, his fist hitting the pavement, causing the road surface to shatter abruptly, the tremors spreading rapidly, shattering the windows of the buildings on both sides of the street, and toppling street trees and streetlights, causing them to lean and fall.

His fist, sunk into the ground, opened up to grab a slab of pavement, which Walter lifted and hurled at Yulia.

Only to see Yulia swing a punch, shattering the slab, with debris scraping past her side, smashing into the building behind her, causing a burst of panicked screams.

After tossing the slab, Walter immediately got up and lunged at Yulia.

Yulia slightly lowered her body, borrowing strength from the ground, her right foot quickly sprung up, delivering a crescent upward kick that suddenly struck Walter’s chin.

Even with his head tilted backward, Walter’s body continued to lunge forward, trying hard to bring his head back, face twisted, to grab Yulia.

But at that moment, Yulia crouched down, dodging his tackle under his astonished gaze, and used her hands and shoulders to lift his body, utilizing his momentum to throw Walter away.

Bang!

Walter’s body hit the ground, rolled over awkwardly twice, and immediately got up.

He lay flat on the ground, limbs moving abruptly, launching his body like a cannonball shot out of a barrel, tearing through the air with a whistling sound.

Walter roared, swinging his fist at Yulia’s head.

And then, his fist collided with something hard.

It seemed as if a transparent wall stood in front of Yulia, Walter’s fist hit the wall, only cracking it, unable to shatter it completely.

Almost instantly, years of business instinct told Walter—this is a trap!

Yulia treated herself as bait, just to lure out the Abyssal Believers.

She seemed to think that after Yan Luo left Crimson No.2, the Abyssal Believers would certainly make a move against her.

"...So what if it’s a trap?"

Walter gritted his teeth, face contorted, "Yulia, I’m going to kill you here!!!"

It wasn’t out of anger, not out of frenzy, but Yulia heard the determination in Walter’s words.

The Abyssal Believer in front of her wasn’t assassinating her for ’profit’ or ’ambition’, he had his own target and wish.

Thus, Yulia smiled.

She stretched a sinister smile from the corner of her mouth.

Enemies without ideals, without desires aren’t worth killing, only such enemies with ideals and desires are fit to be her opponents!

"I’m right here!"

The barrier in front of Yulia shattered loudly, and she engaged with Walter again.

Though she had only five engravings, Yulia used her superb combat skills to dodge every attack from Walter, and immediately launched a counterattack after his offense.

Only Walter, possessing the eight-engraving Vajra sequence, had a body so hard it was outrageous.

Even enduring Yulia’s attacks dozens, even hundreds of times, he remained unmoved, like an immovable rock.

The police were on their way, the Hunter was on their way, the longer it dragged on, the more unfavorable the situation became for Walter.

Therefore, he must make a quick decision.

If his attack can hit Yulia one more time, the battle can be ended.

But Walter just can’t do it!

Yulia losing an eye was not without impact, in the hundreds of attacks Walter launched at her, she couldn’t dodge them all.

However, Yulia is not fighting alone right now.

Yevgenia had been watching in the shadows, ready to cast protective magic on Yulia the moment she made a mistake.

After a hundred rounds of offense and defense within thirty seconds, Walter still couldn’t take down Yulia, and Yulia couldn’t take down Walter either.

But the point remains — Yulia is not fighting alone now!

"Yevgenia!" Yulia suddenly shouted that name.

No matter how slow one is, they should have reacted by now.

The protective shield and instances of sudden acceleration on Yulia weren’t gadgets, but someone was watching from the shadows?

Walter suddenly felt a surge of fear.

Afraid of death?

No, certainly not.

He was afraid of failing to accomplish the task ’Father’ assigned to him, even in death.

For a better Blue Star, for a greater future ahead—

"Ahhhhh! Yu! Li! A!"

[Crack!]

Walter stomped the ground fiercely, making the entire street tremble, causing Yulia’s body to sway, as if about to fall.

[Crack!]

With a roar, Walter gathered all his strength and delivered a crushing punch forward.

[Crack!]

"—Die!!!"

[Crack crack crack crack crack—!]

Just as Walter swung his punch, an ice spike suddenly emerged from his skin, within less than a nanosecond, another appeared somewhere else, then a third, fourth, fifth... countless crystalline and radiant ice flowers erupted instantly all over Walter’s body, freezing him in a punching stance.

Walter’s movements froze instantly, his face twisted with anger and ferocity, muscles knotted, veins bulging, his posture stretched to the limit, his fist nearly descending.

But at this very moment, he was frozen into a portrait.

Yulia panted heavily and stepped back two paces.

The reason she engaged in mutual combat with Walter here was merely to stall time for Yevgenia to perform magic.

Though it seemed deceitful, in truth, it was deceitful, but who said Yulia was a Hunter?

She wasn’t a Warrior; she was a Hunter who would go to any lengths to hunt her prey!

When Sasa suggested that they live together, she refused and then proposed the ’I become bait’ fishing plan.

All Yulia’s fuss was to catch the Abyssal Believers who came to assassinate her.

Even if the Abyssal Believers guessed she had extracted her internal engravings, they could not predict to what extent her strength had recovered, so they would surely send someone they deemed reliable.

Although this Abyssal Believer before her was a high-level hitman, he possessed the strength of the Second Rank and should know a lot of Abyssal Believers’ secrets.

Therefore, Yulia wanted to capture the assassin.

If it was just to kill an Abyssal Believer, it wouldn’t have been so complicated; Yevgenia, hiding in the dark, had over a dozen spells that could doom him.

More and more people gathered around, and tall Yevgenia appeared calmly, supporting the trembling Yulia in a low voice, asking, "Are you alright? The [Life Extension] spell is about to expire."

It was just an emergency spell that wouldn’t last long.

Yulia gasped a few times, weakly replying, "Use an illusion technique to make a dummy move... like teleportation, trick the people around into thinking we’ve disappeared on the spot..."

She couldn’t collapse before the crowd, she mustn’t...

Yevgenia sighed softly, feeling a bit sorry for Yulia, and slightly raised her hand, a layer of illusion technique covered the surrounding space.

In the eyes of others, Yevgenia, Yulia, and Walter frozen into an ice sculpture vanished on the spot.

Did they teleport away? People were amazed by this.

Moments later, a nearby policeman received the message and immediately stepped forward to calm the crowd.

"Everyone, don’t worry, no casualties occurred during this incident, and Ms. Bilukova will provide high compensation to restore the roads and damaged buildings. Those whose homes or shops were affected by the battle, you’re in luck!"

Thus, the Abyssal Believers’ attempt to assassinate Yulia incident came to a temporary halt...
