Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"Exciting! Exciting! Exciting!"

The air was filled with a fierce energy, and the group beside him could feel a gust of wind hitting their faces as they watched the agile figure dancing in front of them.

Tao Yu had gone through the Myriad Streams Five Forms one by one and felt the smoothness in his body, a vast improvement in efficiency compared to before, and a burst of pride surged from his chest.

Originally, due to diminishing returns and the increased consumption of Yuan Force from his strength enhancement, Tao Yu's body refining efficiency had visibly declined.

But now, he was back to feeling just like when he first entered the Myriad Streams Dojo.

This was the super cost-effective nature of the physical side talents!

Beyond that...

"Jack! Watch me!"

Jack, who had been watching Tao Yu and occasionally trying to mimic him, looked up at Tao Yu's face when he heard him.

Tao Yu then formed his hand into a claw, mimicking the form of a tiger, and pounced forward, pressing down fiercely towards Jack.

In an instant, Jack seemed to see a fierce, colourful tiger leaping towards him, as if an invisible tiger's phantom rose from behind Tao Yu, merged with him, and then a double image appeared at the tiger's claw.

Roar!

It was as if the roar of a tiger was rising beside his ear, causing Jack's thoughts to go blank for a moment.

When he came back to his senses, he saw the tiger's claw stopped right in front of his eyes.

Oh, not a tiger's claw, but Tao Yu's palm.

He could even clearly see the lines on the palm.

"How does that feel?"

"Teach me, father."

"Haha, I promised to teach you, and I will. Whether you can master the real skills, that's up to you."

Tao Yu didn't elaborate, as this thing couldn't be clearly explained. Anyway, Five Forms as One originally had real substance, and Jack's talents were strong, so he should be able to develop something from it.

After experiencing the new talent, Tao Yu was actually very satisfied.

The deification of several basic skills all brought spiritual attacks, with Basic Shooting - Modified's mental shock being particularly impactful on several crucial occasions.

But the pure efficiency of that impact was actually so-so. Back then, even after being hit by it, Cao Shaolin could still clench onto the blade, and now with the integration of will, there was no doubt that the efficiency was much higher, and it could even be released from a distance!

Although there was significant attenuation with distance, the main purpose of a will impact was to catch the enemy off guard and distract them, making it a powerful addition to his toolkit.

Tao Yu's skills were most suitable for delivering a one-hit kill, and this could lead to a massive advantage if it produced an opening.

This gain far exceeded his expectations!

"Now I shouldn't be in such a rush for a second deification since Five Forms as One - Modified has increased my potential and there's still much to explore. However, saving money is still important..."

Having recently received a large delivery thanks to a temporary replenishment of Yuan Force, Tao Yu decided that he must always save at least a thousand or two thousand units of Yuan Force for emergencies, just in case!

"You've decided not to break through anymore, right?"

While tearing open a can of beef and starting to eat, Tao Yu spoke to the survivors in the laboratory.

"Since you've taken care of the biggest issue, we think we'll stay here. After all, there's plenty of food."

The chubby black man, Jam, was operating a small forklift, bringing over several large boxes of canned goods from the warehouse. Without the threat of the 'Corpse King', it was naturally safer underground. Jack had already briefly described the situation outside.

"Actually, we were hoping you'd stay too. There's more than enough food here," said a young, rather pretty girl with a few freckles on her face, inviting Tao Yu.

Her gaze was boldly fixed on Tao Yu's handsome face, her enthusiasm not even slightly hidden.

The fiery sensation gave Tao Yu some feedback in his Spirit Perception.

But right now, Tao Yu wasn't interested in wasting any time and directly ignored the invitation.

"I have to go back to the company for some business, and besides, this place is well-located; it may be chosen by the company as a base."

Tao Yu gave them a heads-up in advance.

Originally, the base was surrounded by the Gobi Desert; although it had existing military facilities that could save a lot of trouble, it lacked water sources and wasn't quite suitable.

Right next to Las Vegas is the Hoover Dam, which would actually be a good choice as well.

But according to some casual conversation with the few people here, it turned out that there was an abundance of underground water resources beneath the base; it's just that previously as a military base, there was no need for any greening.

Once the water source issue was resolved, the base's location could suddenly receive a boost in desirability.

After all, safety first in the Abyss World!

If the water source is not a problem, then the comprehensive defense works of the base immediately appear to be of utmost importance.

The surrounding Gobi Desert actually becomes a barrier, which inversely increases the safety and becomes an advantage.

Anyway, when it's time to really submit the mission, the military base, Las Vegas, and the Hoover Dam can all be reported as potential locations for selection—it's up to them to decide.

I'm just after the mission rewards!

"Can I ask about the details of your company?"

The middle-aged woman, who was a researcher, had a worried look on her face.

"It has a bad reputation; the lower ranks are only slightly better than slaves, but if you're of value, the treatment will be better."

Tao Yu decided to give them a dose of the harsh truth upfront—like a 'hang you from the lamp post' kind of company.

This turned everyone present quite pale.

But then Tao Yu added seriously,

"However, it should be the only place here that can forge a relatively normal settlement, at least able to restore some order."

"The only power capable of restoring order is that strong?"

The few of them were somewhat dazed, starting with the expectation of a 'bad reputation,' but after the latter comment, they felt it wasn't unacceptable.

Restoring order was something they hardly dared to think about, but recalling Tao Yu's previously impressive superpowers, who had killed the Corpse King, they seemed to slowly come to terms with it.

Being locked up in this sunless underground place every day, they felt that if order could be restored, they could accept even the intensive labor!

Humans, after all, are social animals.

"Alright, we'll wait here, don't worry, we'll definitely cooperate."

"I also need to find a way to bring my people over."

Jack had also made up his mind; if the zombies inside the military base could be cleared out, then it indeed would be a very good place.

Strict company management?

Could it be worse than the current situation of constantly being at risk? Dealing with zombies every day, searching for food among the hordes, life had already been hell!

If the company Tao Yu spoke of really was that strong, it was definitely worth a gamble.

Survival is the top priority!

Moreover, even if the company didn't choose this place, with the food storage here, even if including his own people, it would be more than enough for long-term living...

"I'll accompany you back first, and then I need to return to the company."

Tao Yu spoke calmly to Jack, which unexpectedly touched him.

"Haha, you're worried I might run into trouble, huh?"

Seeing Jack's cheerful demeanor, Tao Yu opened her mouth but in the end, didn't say anything.

Uh, she was just after Cao Shaolin's body...
