Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"Does Brother Tao plan to intercept them? It looks like there are a total of five, should we divide them up?"

Lin Chao, with his "Intuition," had a quite accurate judgment of the enemy's numbers.

"Kill four, capture one."

Tao Yu revealed his plan.

"Capture alive?"

"Alive."

When Lin Chao heard Tao Yu's firm response, he was somewhat surprised at the bottom of his heart.

Ever since Tao Yu had arrived, Lin Chao knew the man was strong, perhaps not any less than himself, but he had not anticipated him to be this bold.

"We've encountered these Aliens before on the plains, ordinary Pioneers equipped with assault rifles can engage them in a head-on fight from a distance.

"But they're very good at teamwork and ambushes. In the current complex cover environment, isn't trying to capture one alive too risky?"

Lin Chao only offered his suggestion, but he didn't slow his pace at all, continuing to follow closely behind Tao Yu as they vaulted over obstacles.

His physical condition was also approaching the human limit.

Although he was far inferior to Tao Yu, for a Pioneer from the outer city to reach this level in such a short time without dying was quite remarkable, probably due to a talent investment from their federation's Angel.

"You're not bad, just take out the first four quickly, leave the last one to me."

Tao Yu leaped to the top of a water tank in a few moves, watching the approaching Alien silhouettes, and blew a sharp whistle.

This immediately attracted the attention of those Aliens climbing on the rooftops.

Tao Yu knew that even now, an attack from an Alien could be lethal to him because his endurance was insufficient. Purely being swarmed would actually be somewhat troublesome.

But the individual performance parameters of a single Alien weren't too exaggerated. They conformed to their biological size but were a headache to deal with because of their exoskeletons, acidic blood, and various natural weapons.

As long as their numbers were within manageable limits and he wasn't ambushed, with enough maneuvering space, Tao Yu wasn't particularly concerned.

"Comparatively, I'm still far behind. I've got funding from the society, and Young Master Sun has also invested in me. This is the benefit of banding together..."

Lin Chao said this and looked at Tao Yu with a complex gaze.

"But it seems like you managed to acquire resources on your own without the need to band together."

Initially, Lin Chao had wanted to use these points to persuade Tao Yu to join their group, by demonstrating with his own experience.

Turns out the other guy seemed to be doing even better...

"Haha, luck. Let's start."

Tao Yu laughed heartily and then crouched on top of the water tank, setting up his gun as several Aliens charged into a fifty-meter range!

Rat-tat-tat~

Tao Yu was crouching on the water tank, and Lin Chao stood by its side, both opening fire simultaneously.

It must be said, although the Aliens didn't have extremely exaggerated stats, they could be considered the apex of regular creatures in all aspects: fast, strong, and agile.

The moment the two men fired, the Aliens started performing evasive maneuvers, using the cover on the rooftops and climbing to the sides of buildings to seek blind spots for their shots.

But the whole point of waiting until they were within fifty meters before opening fire was to reduce their reaction time.

The two Aliens targeted by Tao Yu and Lin Chao were hit and tumbled almost simultaneously, their green acidic blood spraying wildly as they struggled in vain.

The only things left were splatters of green blood and the corroding white smoke from the acid blood hitting the ground.

After these two were taken out, the other three Aliens also used the sides of buildings and overhead cover to encircle the two men from different directions.

An Alien barely peeked from a common blind spot, attempting to stealthily climb up, but Tao Yu and Lin Chao simultaneously turned and fired, hitting it and causing it to fall from the rooftop heavily onto the street below.

With their comrade emerging, the remaining two didn't waste the opportunity and lunged forward at the same time.

Tao Yu released his empty assault rifle and casually pulled out the "Warlord's Sidearm," firing continuously at one of the Aliens while rapidly closing in on the other.

"I'll leave the injured one to you."

"Be careful."

Lin Chao didn't refuse; watching Tao Yu charge barehanded towards an Alien filled him with a sense of alarm.

Their previous shooting cooperation made taking out the Aliens as risk-free as swatting flies, comfortably at ease.

But they had reached their limit for handling them.

If there had been a few more Aliens lunging at them at the same time, the situation would have been terrible!

Compared to dealing with an Alien barehanded and with a gun, the difference was more than a world apart.

A normal person with a gun might dare to fight a lion or tiger, but without a weapon, against such apex predators, they could only skid away...

At least Lin Chao himself, even with melee weapons, was not confident in taking on an Alien; he needed a gun to stand a chance.

But at the moment he didn't have much mind to worry about Tao Yu, as he switched to his backup gun and started dispatching the Alien injured by Tao Yu.

After killing it, he'd have to check on the one that fell...

...

Meanwhile, Tao Yu charged straight at the last Alien, which, in turn, took two steps back to observe carefully.

The cunning predator, realizing that Tao Yu truly hadn't lifted his sidearm to aim at itself, immediately burst forth, lunging toward Tao Yu in an instant.

"Heh, refusing to pause even for a moment might have given you some dignity."

Tao Yu, seeing the alien's momentary halt and subsequent hasty acceleration toward him, couldn't help but sneer.

Every living creature has a startup time when they accelerate, and in Tao Yu's Dynamic Vision, the alien's speed had already plummeted after that pause.

Bullet Time!

In an instant, everything around him slowed down, and Tao Yu observed the alien's trajectory carefully, softly sidestepping to avoid the range of both teeth and claws. Then, as the alien's tail came flinging at him, he grabbed it with one swift motion!

Qi-Blood coursed through his entire body, erupting maximum strength from his palm like iron tongs grabbing the tail, and with a flick.

A vague sense seemed to roar like a giant ape.

And the alien, who was looking back at Tao Yu with a ferocious face, seemed to be struck by lightning all of a sudden, its body stiff as a board.

Despite this, the massive force from the pounce still dragged Tao Yu across the ground for a distance.

"Compared to Wino, that beast who would throw aliens around, I'm still lacking quite a bit in physical strength."

After sliding a bit and then steadying himself, Tao Yu dexterously flipped over and mounted the alien's back.

With the impact of the press down, he pinned the just-recovered alien to the ground, and it seemed like a bear-shaped phantom erupted once again, continuing the mental assault.

[Riding] that subtle feeling gradually emerged, and Tao Yu, without hesitation, took the alien's slender tail, looped it around its neck, and grabbed it crosswise in his hands.

His legs wrapped tightly around the alien's thorax, like pythons ensnaring their prey.

Because one end of the alien's tail was its own rear, after wrapping it around its neck and having a fulcrum to work with, Tao Yu was able to suffocate it with one hand while his waist and legs remained fixed.

The other hand transformed into a paw-like shape, smacking down on the back of the alien's head like a bear's paw.

Crack~

The strength burst forth again, directly fracturing the alien's exoskeleton, causing some acidic blood to ooze out, some of which even stained Tao Yu's hand.

But Tao Yu paid it no mind, continuing to smack down on other uncracked areas!

[Riding] only allowed Tao Yu to control the 'driving' method and to have 'mutual understanding,' but it didn't have any Taming abilities of its own.

However, with 'mutual understanding,' Tao Yu was able to actively make the alien understand his intentions while also peering into the alien's state of mind.

Training dogs, bears, and so on had their own methods and skills, but compared to Tao Yu's nearly direct 'conversation,' there was indeed a gap.

Tao Yu had no particular skill other than to beat it!

"Submit or not!"

"Oh, still playing tough."

"I'll beat the hell out of you."

"Here's a big one for you."

"..."

Because the continued attacker's vigorous strength came with a psychological assault, Tao Yu was expending both physical and mental energy at an extreme rate.

But fortunately, he could free one hand; he took a Qi Replenishing Pill from his pocket and popped it in his mouth, then continued with the beating.

His intention wasn't to kill; he didn't use his full strength each time, just inflicting enough pain on the creature beneath him.

Through 'mutual understanding,' and after continuous trials, Tao Yu found the spot where the alien felt the most pain when hit.

It was the area where the long exoskeleton on the back of the head met the neck!

This nerve cluster seemed to be the densest, like a pair of testicles.

This compelled Tao Yu to adopt the form of the Crane's technique, constantly poking at that spot.

The poking made the alien howl continuously.

After consuming two Qi Replenishing Pills, Tao Yu finally sensed the alien's thoughts of submission.

It wasn't true submission or loyalty but teetering on the edge of rebellion at any moment.

But because of 'mutual understanding,' Tao Yu could be certain that, for now, the creature wouldn't dare to defy him.

"You're smart to recognize the situation. Look at your companions; if you dare to run, I'll shoot your limbs off, leaving you to wish for life or death in vain."

Tao Yu added one last threat, and the feedback somehow had some effect, which amused him.

Subsequently, [Taming] Lv1, a new skill, was born.

[Taming] Lv1: Through continuous trials, you seem to have discovered some techniques for taming animals.

These Skills were not data-based, nor were they some kind of newly acquired abilities.

They were merely summaries of one's abilities, with Auxiliary Abilities being represented in this way for the convenience of accelerating with Yuan Force.

But that was only for ordinary people...

Deification!

Consuming a hundred Yuan Force was not costly, and Tao Yu used it without any hesitancy...
