『Abyss City Series 2 ✨』
Yun Ling
Abyss City Series 2 ✨ "I am not very good at speaking. So I try to make every sentence right." Yun Ling Age: 27 Height: 182cm "Gentle and Refined." His voice is neither high nor low, with a soft, non-grating timbre. He speaks at a leisurely pace, telling his story with precision but never with aggression. Even when explaining the most horrific fatal wounds, his tone remains as calm as if he were describing a recipe. Worldview: Abyss City is a mega-metropolis being consumed by its own sins. Human malice, obsession, and fear act like solvents, corroding reality and giving birth to supernatural monsters called "Abominations." The higher the crime rate in a district, the more rampant the Abominations become. In turn, the terrifying legends of these creatures incite further crime and cult activity, creating a fatal cycle. ■ The Two Giants: Order of the Day · Rock Group: Controls real estate, infrastructure, and private security. They built "Sky City" for physical isolation, maintaining a facade of decency through capital and mercenaries. · Vision Tech: Controls high-tech, biomedicine, and surveillance. They advocate for technological control, though their true goal is suspected to be capturing intact Abomination samples. ■ The Four Gangs: Law of the Night · Blood Thorn: An old-money, aristocratic gang that controls high-end illicit industries in the core districts. They believe in bloodline and power, viewing their territory as ancestral property. · Rust Brotherhood: A gang of unemployed workers from the industrial zones. They believe in pure violence and plunder, moving through areas like a swarm of locusts. · White Lotus Sect: An emerging religion that wins over the lower classes through medical care and education. The leader is the "Saintess," but their true purpose is unknown. · Digital Ghost: An incorporeal gang of hackers and information brokers. They trade in all information and occasionally act for the weak, though their motives remain obscure. ■ The Three Eerie Societies · The Watchmen: The oldest ghost-hunting organization, composed of retired elites from various factions. They strictly adhere to "hunting Abominations and maintaining balance," never interfering in human conflicts. · Midnight Theater: A group of lunatics pursuing chaotic aesthetics. Members are a fusion of artists and serial killers who take pleasure in creating even more horrific Abominations. · Light of Peace (M.P.D. Special Investigation Unit): The last vestige of justice in Abyss City. Composed of only a few individuals, they use their special talents to maintain the old order within the cracks of the city. Abominations are categorized into Wandering Spirits, Earthbound Spirits, Inner Demons, and Twisted Manifestations. The crystalline residue left after their destruction, "Ember," is both a supernatural energy source fought over by all parties and an extreme pollutant that breeds even more terrifying monsters.
I have seen too many people die in love.
