After Death, I Became a Superhuman-Chapter 71 – Abyss Gate
Changhe City.
"Anran? Are you there, Anran?"
Awakened by the morning doorbell, Anran sat up groggily on the hotel bed. She yawned and opened the door, finding her best friend, Li Ran, standing outside.
"What's wrong with you? What's with the dark circles under your eyes?" Li Ran was startled. "What did you do last night?"
"Nothing... I just didn't sleep well," Anran said, yawning again.
The company organized a week-long trip, and after much discussion, they decided that their first stop would be Changhe City. If it were a week ago, Anran would have been enthusiastic about such an activity, but now things were different.
When she was initially assigned to be a gardener by the alliance, she refused. However, after just a week in the alliance's greenhouse, she had come to deeply appreciate the accuracy of the "Realm Law" discovered by the great ancestors. After spending a week in the greenhouse, her deepest realization was the enduring two words of the Realm Law -
- It's really fragrant.
Although she hadn't given up on her dream of fighting, she was completely addicted to this super-realistic and transcendent version of a farming game. If she didn't look at the fields she planted in the greenhouse for more than an hour, she would feel restless.
That's how she spent last night. After a day of traveling, she was dragged around by her colleagues and best friend to take pictures. However, even after a whole day of running around, it couldn't stop her enthusiasm for farming in the greenhouse at night.
Originally, she planned to water the plants and go to sleep, knowing that she had to wake up early the next day. But unexpectedly, she got online and unintentionally spent most of the night there. It was past three in the morning when she finally forced herself to return to the hotel and lie down to sleep, resulting in the panda eyes the next day.
"You should sleep early and not stay up late. It's important for us girls," Li Ran said, looking a bit embarrassed.
"By the way, I need to borrow some money. I spent too much on this trip and ran out..."
"Don't you still have Ant Credit to borrow from?"

"I do," Li Ran said seriously, "but I have to pay it back."
Anran: "..."
Although she said it straightforwardly, it seemed like she was right.
Anran was about to get up and prepare to wash and change clothes when she suddenly heard a "ding" notification sound from her phone. Both of their phones rang at the same time.
They picked up their phones and their expressions changed simultaneously.
"Trip canceled... Emergency evacuation in Yingge Town!?" Li Ran looked surprised. "Why does it sound so bad? What's going on?"
Anran frowned.
As a new recruit in the alliance, Anran seemed to smell the scent of an event.
...
...
Half an hour ago, Sky Eye began organizing the evacuation in Yingge Town.
They took down the Kindred stronghold and rescued the unlucky guard, Xu Haoyu. This poor rookie was still drooling and had a foolish look on his face when he came out, muttering something about how big it was, really big.
Upon questioning, they learned that the woman named Yecha, who came out of the Prayer Meeting with Kangtu, seemed to have been here before, and they further learned that her ability should be psychic. Unfortunately, she was no longer here when they took down the stronghold. She ran really fast.
Sky Eye quickly learned about the existence of the Starflow Stone. The corresponding experts organized an investigation and came up with an unexpected result.
The Starflow Stone was here, but not entirely here.
As everyone knows, the function of the Starflow Stone is to open the door to the abyss. And since it's a door, it should be able to open from both sides.
But this time, the door of this stone was opened from the other side.
In other words, its essence should exist on the side of the abyss. Someone opened the door from the other side and tried to come over to this side.
This was an unprecedented situation. No one knew what the other side of the door would be like, but it was certain that anything appearing from the abyss outside the present world could not be taken lightly. Therefore, several nearby villages and towns had to be evacuated urgently.
The Changhe City branch of Sky Eye immediately mobilized. They obtained the approximate location of the Starflow Stone's door from the captured Kindred and preemptively surrounded that area with guns and cannons.
The transcendent commissioners from the Changhe branch also gathered, but unfortunately, their numbers were very limited. Including Zhou Jiale, whom She Miao encountered, there were only two commissioners of Rank C, five commissioners of Rank D, and one commissioner of Rank B.
While the intelligence was being sent out, transcendent commissioners from nearby cities were already on their way to provide support, but it would obviously take time for them to arrive.
At 9:40 p.m., the door opened.
As if a claw reached out from the void, it forcefully tore open a crack in space. The first thing that surged out was a hazy mist, as if in a short moment, it covered the whole world with a thin veil, casting a decaying filter over everything.
Following that were roars and screams, echoing from the distant abyss.
Twisted bodies emerged through the mist. They had nightmarish figures, with rough skin emitting a dark red glow, appearing particularly eerie under the dim lights. They had numerous tentacle-like organs growing on their bodies, some sharp as blades, others sticky substances, making people shudder.
There were also some humanoid creatures crawling on all fours on the ground. They were all pitch-black, with red pupils that seemed to possess the power to tear souls apart. Their strange eyes were filled with madness and killing intent.
There were also some with sharp and radiating teeth, exuding an ancient aura. Their monstrous bodies were covered in muscles and scales, with spiky vertebral bones, giving off a bone-chilling evil aura.
"Commander, the enemy has appeared!"Upon receiving the signal, Jian Hao, the staff officer of the Sky Eye Long River Division, nodded slightly and then issued an order through the light screen: "Deploy."
The roar of the engine tore through the sky, and the steel raptor flew over from outer space. A white arrow, trailing a rolling tail flame, was launched towards the newly emerged horde of monsters. Countless twisted creatures raised their heads, howling as they watched the object fall in a burning arc.
Flames rose, and the earth was instantly enveloped in light and heat. The rocks began to shake violently, the changing air pressure swept everything, and the flames ruthlessly devoured the newly emerged horde of monsters.
The terrifying explosion, this is the power of man-made force. Steel fragments scattered like a rain of flowers, and the steel bars and rocks were riddled with holes in an instant.
But it wasn't over. The fighter jet flew past, circled around, and returned again, the roaring engine like the symphony of death.
Another object was thrown down, and the explosive flames soared into the sky. The released flames were enough to squeeze steel into juice, the raging steam burned recklessly like a beast breaking free from its cage, penetrating every corner of space.
White phosphorus incendiary bombs.
Faced with an unprecedented special situation, even the Sky Eye, deploying missiles to cleanse the residential area nearby in such a short time, was already at its limit.
However, unfortunately, it seemed not enough.
"High thermal reaction... Multiple heat sources are approaching!"
Inside the Long River Division base, a communicator shouted loudly.
Staff Officer Jian Hao squinted his eyes.
"So it didn't work..." He connected the communication through the light screen, "All units be alert, prepare for combat."
The next moment, the barrier of fire and smoke was torn apart. Like hundreds of thousands of abyssal monsters breaking out from the sea of fire, their momentum was overwhelming, as if they came from hell.
