Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

He had already sensitively noticed that even with the armor absorbed, it was completely different from the normal version of "Demonization"!

"Before it seemed to be a direct fleshly mutation, but this time it feels like I'm in a shadow overlay state?"

Tao Yu pressed his skin, which felt normal, as if nothing had changed, yet he could vaguely sense that if he were to sustain a sufficient attack, he could trigger a part of the defense mechanism!

Although not as effective as full "Demonization", it was about half as powerful.

The main thing was that it didn't require any additional expenditure! It was a divine skill to leave this world at no cost!

"Perfect."

Quite satisfied with his current state, Tao Yu grinned with pleasure.

"It's just unknown if I can control to cover the inner armor and the belt as well, as these don't seem to be part of the body, more like they're dragged out of the shadows, so it should be okay, right...?"

Tao Yu looked down at his body, wondering if it would be considered abnormal to end up like this after every use.

"Are you going to eat people now?"

Standing beside him, Xu Yijing asked cautiously upon seeing Tao Yu recover.

At that moment, she was covering her face with her hands, only peeking through the gaps between her fingers.

"Eat you?"

Tao Yu lowered the Strength Belt to cover the key area, responding somewhat irritably.

What a loss, being seen for free...

...

Having raided the entire apartment, he hunted enough Yuan Force shards without any risk, completing his skills, and the practicality fully met and even exceeded expectations, leaving Tao Yu in a great mood.

It wasn't hard to find clothes in the apartment, and with no real difficulty, Tao Yu even found some spares to stash in his bag.

Humming a tune, he took the two zombies and Xu Yijing into the elevator to go downstairs.

"Are you going back out later?"

Xu Yijing seemed nervous, with a tense expression on her lovely face.

"Are you worried about that the whole time? I was planning on going anyway, bring me to the medical center later. There's no need for you to follow me to the military base," Tao Yu said casually.

This slightly relaxed Xu Yijing.

As they chatted casually, ding-dong~

The elevator reached the first floor and the doors opened.

"Boss Tao is back."

"Hey there, Boss Tao, did you kill all the monsters? Are you thirsty? Want some water?"

"We have sports drinks here."

"..."

As soon as Tao Yu arrived, he was greeted with a very warm welcome, with many people appearing very attentive.

Since he was taking them to the gathering place to sell, Tao Yu didn't hide his intentions and casually parted the crowd to spot some new faces.

They must have gathered here while he was cleaning up the area.

But now, the atmosphere on the first floor was a bit subtle.

At that moment, the wheelchair-bound old man was welding, continuously reinforcing some doors and windows. Despite being disabled, his craftsmanship was excellent, and with such a skill, he could probably live quite comfortably in the gathering place.

Apart from him, there was another new face that Tao Yu vaguely remembered, a man with a scarred face.

Though probably not the main character, Tao Yu remembered seeing him in the short video clips.

But the man, who seemed to have outstanding strength among ordinary people, was now tied up with ropes and thrown to the ground. Tao Yu wondered what had happened during his absence.

"What happened?"

Tao Yu pointed to the man with the scarred face on the ground and asked.

"Boss Tao, this man is a murderer. He even took one of our tenants hostage before—look, that's the victim," the supermarket owner said, still eager to please despite being ridiculed by Tao Yu earlier, while pointing to another new face.

That was a thin man, somewhat handsome, but with multiple scars marring his appearance.

When he saw Tao Yu, a forced, pleasing smile appeared on his face.

But at just a glance, Tao Yu felt an inexplicable and intense dislike.

Although there was no sense of threat, Spirit Perception didn't give such a warning without reason.

So, Tao Yu kicked the tied-up scarred man and demanded, "What's the deal, speak up, why were you tied up?"

Seeing Tao Yu ignoring him and instead questioning the scarred man, the thin man's smile stiffened on his face.

He then wanted to start explaining.

"I didn't ask you, shut up."

Tao Yu swept a glance at him indifferently.

It was precisely this attitude that made the scar-faced uncle, who had been silent and cool since being captured, look up at Tao Yu.

From some of the discussions, he had already learned that this person was now in charge, and was even hunting monsters!

Although Scarface had dealt with ordinary monsters, he knew this was no ordinary person.

"He's a perverted serial killer, I just investigated him, but haven't found any evidence yet."

When he heard this, Tao Yu raised an eyebrow, as his Spirit Perception told him the other party wasn't lying.

Although it wasn't impossible that he was being deceived, combined with the revulsion that the pervert generated in him, it was almost certain.

"Are you a detective?"

Tao Yu asked curiously.

"No, I'm an assassin. I was hired by the girl's father, but I haven't found any evidence yet..."

Upon hearing this, Tao Yu couldn't help but let out a weary comment, and raised his gun to blow the head off the pervert who had just opened his mouth to argue.

The blood spattered on the ground, causing the pervert to fall dead in a pool of blood with his eyes wide open, eliciting a chorus of screams.

"Are you stupid? If you're not a detective, why look for evidence? And an assassin..."

Tao Yu's words left the scar-faced uncle completely baffled.

Meanwhile, the survivors who had looks of horror, many managed to squeeze out forced smiles.

"Ah, that's right, what evidence do you need against a perverted murderer!"

"Yeah, some guys do all sorts of evil and they can still get released."

"This is for the best, now it's all settled."

"He got off easy, dying so quickly."

"..."

Not one person disapproved of Tao Yu's gunfire; the little supermarket owner quickly produced a utility knife and cut the ropes binding the scar-faced uncle.

His newly regained freedom left the scar-faced uncle dazed.

He considered himself quite the tough assassin, yet here came someone even tougher! And this person believed him just based on his word and killed the pervert, which gave Scarface a strange feeling inside. Then, with a hoarse voice, he said,

"You just believe me like that?"

"My instinct tells me you're not lying, and he had a very bad smell about him."

Tao Yu pointed to his temple, then glanced at the key hanging from the corpse's waist,

"If you can't let it go, investigate some more. Most monsters in the apartment have been dealt with."

"Thank you."

The scar-faced uncle expressed his gratitude. Ever since a fire took his family and disfigured him, he never felt any warmth again.

This kind of trust was a first for him!

"I'll be stepping out in a bit, just don't cause any trouble here."

Tao Yu nonchalantly waved his hand.

"I'll help keep things stable here," the scar-faced uncle said earnestly and then picked up the keys beside the dead pervert.

"Boss, are you heading out? There are cars in the basement garage. Uncle Han's modification skills are strong; we can probably just reinforce a few vans. Rainforest isn't far."

An Zhijie had reached the Rainforest before and knew the rough distance. He thought that a few reinforced cars should be enough for the journey.

Uncle Han was the limping man.

"I have something I want to check out, won't be long. Perfect time to modify the vehicles. Here, take these two assault rifles."

Tao Yu mused for a moment, looking at Cao Shaolin,

"Shaolin will also stay with you. I'll have him follow your orders to protect you, but he's a bit slow in the head, only good for fighting. If there's trouble, find Da Hei and Little Black on the roof, they're a bit smarter."

"Oh, okay."

An Zhijie nodded repeatedly, and then Tao Yu momentarily focused his thoughts and issued orders to Cao Shaolin to obey An Zhijie's commands temporarily.

Though Cao Shaolin wore an eye mask, looking almost blind, since he could join in monster hunting, he must be strong too, even if he doesn't look quite human...

"He doesn't need to eat, just leave him aside when not needed, as if he doesn't exist."

Tao Yu's offhand remarks sent a chill through An Zhijie.

Indeed, both the stoic handsome guy and the ugly freak weren't human!

But then he relaxed; the world was like this now, it seemed more normal to not be human...
