Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

When Tao Yu returned, no one asked too many questions.

On the contrary, it was Tao Yu who spoke up seriously,

"You must remember, in the Abyss, the heretics are ubiquitous and extremely dangerous. They all have antisocial personalities, are lunatics with radical ideologies who want to destroy our hard-won habitat..."

After Tao Yu delivered an impromptu speech against the heretics, everyone nodded in agreement.

Isn’t Nan Bang’s homeland rife with heretical cults?

Thus, many of them had a deep understanding.

Who would have thought that even the Abyss was infested with heretics, which sounded even more dangerous!

Thinking back to the two explosions from earlier, they couldn’t help but think of terrorist operations.

Indeed, it was very dangerous!

Having completed the pacifying explanation, Tao Yu continued riding on Da Hei as if nothing had happened, hanging the Treasonous Blade on the sword rack beside him.

This weapon was too long, so carrying it around was indeed a bit uncomfortable. Once this matter was settled, it would be hidden in Wino’s shadow.

"The two self-detonating guys were completely obliterated, and that guy with the alien implant was a pauper, having absorbed less than two hundred Yuan Force."

The fellow with the alien implant might have been considered mid-to-low tier in the Inner City, possibly even bottom tier.

All his possessions were rubbish; the only valuable thing had been damaged by Tao Yu, and he had absorbed some Yuan Force from the broken equipment.

If one chose to use Yuan Force to recover physical strength, it would still be a losing deal.

While thinking this, Tao Yu ripped open a can of luncheon meat,

"I miss the blessings of the Monster World, but my recovery ability has indeed improved, which is not bad."

While eating the luncheon meat, Tao Yu’s thoughts drifted.

Another three Inner City Pioneers had died. Alas, one could not know how many casualties among the Inner City Pioneers were a result of their own actions.

Generally, if there was no ambush by an alien swarm nearby, Inner City residents really did not face many threats...

"It’s all their fault; it can’t be blamed on me..."

...

Although there was a large group of ordinary people, their biggest trouble crossing the rainforest was merely the environment and themselves due to the presence of Da Hei.

Beyond this encounter, the journey became relatively stable.

However, due to the pressure of the rainforest in the past few days, almost all the people brought over had symptoms of nosebleeds, including the soldiers from the Crow Squad.

And even after leaving the blessings of the Monster World, there were quite a few casualties.

Those of weak will completely turned into monsters due to demonization, lost their minds, and were burned on the spot.

Those who survived had not yet endured the standard period of fifteen days, but the demonization reaction had diminished outside the world, so there should not be much problem anymore.

Out of the twenty-four soldiers from the Crow Squad, four could not control themselves.

But those who survived became more elite.

Together with some carried antibiotics and other common medicines, and with the medical student with glasses and the nursing assistant present,

there were no abnormal casualties apart from demonization.

"What a waste of a dose of medicine, truly disappointing," Tao Yu muttered as he dismounted from Da Hei, looking at Park Ji-hyun, who was exercising his arms, with a speechless expression.

This guy had been fearless in the face of death, but couldn’t suppress his deepest desires.

"Hehehe," Park Ji-hyun blushed, knowing he was somewhat in the wrong and didn’t dare to argue.

He then changed the subject,

"What about Sister Xu? She doesn’t look right."

"I genuinely have no idea..." Tao Yu replied, turning his head to look at the elder sister figure of the society, Xu Yijing.

She had said that she was pregnant, likely within the first three months, showing no visible signs on the outside, nor did it much affect her mobility, with her combat abilities remaining strong.

But ever since she burned her fiancé’s corpse, her belly had been visibly growing day by day, and one could even see the fetus’s shape inside.

This sight was somewhat eerie.

Yet at this moment, she remained quite rational.

It was clear there was a problem with the fetus.

If they hadn’t been so close to their destination, Tao Yu would have doubted whether she would have given birth along the way.

But fortunately, she was extremely strong-willed and didn’t lose her composure like Park Ji-hyun, who almost lost control; she managed to keep her emotions stable the entire time.

The old man in the wheelchair had managed to come through on his own, but since his regenerative abilities had diminished outside in the monster world, his legs still hadn’t healed and he had to be carried by Xiao Xian as usual.

The luckiest one might be Grandpa An, who had been suffering from a terminal illness and didn’t have much longer to live. After the transformation, it was as if he had been given a forceful extension of life.

He no longer complained of a sore back or legs and didn’t need Little Black to carry him anymore; he was able to keep up with the team with a spring in his step, even showing off in front of the cripples now and then.

The same was true for those researchers; aside from Dr. Ren, three other researchers had persisted.

The journey’s trials and tribulations had unexpectedly turned a previously cumbersome ragtag army into a group of elite troops with exceptional foundations.

Despite having witnessed the deaths of almost half of the others along the way and personally having burnt their bodies,

when they arrived at the edge of the rainforest and saw the sunlight outside, the desert, and the faint silhouette of the distant city, everyone felt as though they had been reborn.

Or rather, they had indeed been reborn...

"Although I’ve witnessed the sudden emergence of the rainforest before, coming back to this edge still amazes me at the marvels of nature," said Dr. Ren, whose arm’s growth had slowed down since leaving the original world, and it was still dangling empty.

He stretched out his remaining hand and poked towards the World Barrier in front of him.

"Be careful, the World Barrier here is one-way outward; you can go out from the inside, but once out, you can’t come back on your own," Tao Yu warned, then also looked down.

Below them, the base at the end of the highway had clearly expanded outward significantly, and many more colorful tents had appeared.

It seemed that although a heretical incident had occurred, the base hadn’t been abandoned; on the contrary, it had been expanded.

It was unclear whether it was an official move or a partnership between several Inner City Pioneers.

However, Tao Yu quickly spotted some familiar faces.

Panda, Qimen—both partners from his own transport team—and Huang Jian and Nuosen, who had come back to complete a mission and helped transport goods for him twice, were all in this base.

Besides them, Tao Yu also saw a familiar crocodile skin, which seemed to belong to Han Lin, who had apparently also joined the transport company.

Moreover, the five of them were gathered together, seemingly discussing something.

Apart from them, Tao Yu saw other Inner City Pioneers with traces of mechanical transformations and alien implants, and there were quite a few of them.

At a rough glance, there were at least twenty to thirty Inner City Pioneers.

"It has only been about four months, give or take, and the number of Inner City Pioneers who chose a new development zone is now no more than a thousand. To gather so many here, is it all for the New World..." Tao Yu pondered, then turned to look at the gear he had brought back.

Well, the New World did indeed have many things to offer: military equipment, helicopters, firearms and ammunition, and even some production machinery or even ammunition production lines.

The potential for extracting value was still quite vast.

However, the convenience of being able to bring them back all at once was a benefit that probably no one could surpass this time...

"Come on, let’s try again to see if we can pass through the barrier," Tao Yu gestured for most of the survivors, who had begun their transformation into monsters, to approach the barrier in turns.

Then he was pleasantly surprised to find that in addition to Xiao Xian, who could already pass through, the bespectacled little doctor, Xiao Li, could also do it! Stay updated via мѵʟ

Having two ’Chosen Ones’ in a team was truly a double blessing!

"The money for the second deification of [Fist Intent] has a place to go now..."

In Tao Yu’s mind, after the talent deification was complete, the priority was to improve skills like the Meditation Technique, Myriad Streams Breathing Technique, Five Forms as One, and Lurking, which were foundational skills that could increase limits.

Next came auxiliary skills such as the Swallowing Fluid Technique, Riding, and Taming Technique.

As for the individual Myriad Streams Five Forms, shooting, combat, and other skills that focused on combat technique, they were not as urgent.

With the panel’s improvement, a casual auto-attack could surpass a former ultimate attack!

Currently, the excess in his output was severe.

From what he had seen of secondary deifications, the cost-effectiveness ratio of a second deification wasn’t as good as the first, and not all skills were worth the investment.

The daily increase in Yuan Force spent during a steady period tended to be higher than these later-ranked skills.

Moreover, if he was within an enhancement window, any deification would have to wait until after the daily expenditure.

Unless some unforeseen fortune came his way, allowing him to train without worries in the short term, he wouldn’t consider it...
