Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

the survivors there looked at Tao Yu with many forcing a smile to appear on their faces.

The owner of the supermarket on the first floor even came over with an ingratiating attitude and said,

"Just now, it was their own fault they died. You had warned us, and we have to thank you for driving the monster away and saving us. We definitely couldn\'t have relied on him."

He made sure not to forget to put down the glasses-wearing guy who had just struggled to his feet.

"Tsk, tsk~ to speak coldly to someone who risked their life to save you all, please stay away from me."

Tao Yu looked at the uncle with disdain, deciding he was definitely not an important character.

His words caused the butt-kissing uncle to stiffen immediately, but he dared not lash out at Tao Yu and could only leave sullenly to return to his shop.

"Go tally the food. Allocate it to everyone on a daily fixed amount. I will find a suitable vehicle and prepare to leave this place,"

Tao Yu casually instructed glasses guy.

Since it was pretty much decided they would all be going together, Tao Yu planned to directly lead people back to the base.

Taking everyone back would ensure no one was missed!

After all, bringing ordinary people back also came with Yuan Force rewards, so it wouldn\'t be a loss.

Pick out the good ones, and they could be integrated into the transportation company.

Without spending Yuan Force and just providing food, hiring the original inhabitants is actually more cost-effective.

"Thank you."

Glasses guy sincerely thanked Tao Yu first before heading to the supermarket to take inventory.

The supermarket owner wanted to say something, but after seeing the knife and gun hanging at Tao Yu\'s waist, he could only squeeze out a smile and invite glasses guy in.

The JK girl who had previously confronted Tao Yu now came over with a blushing face and bowed to him,

"I\'m sorry, my voice was a bit loud at the beginning, thank you for saving my brother."

"You lack sincerity in your apology, you need to show some... never mind."

Tao Yu was about to tease her but changed his mind after glancing at her youthful face and decided against saying anything inappropriate.

He then turned to An Zhijie and said,

"I\'m going to take a look around. You handle things here, shoot if there\'s trouble, I\'ll come back."

"Yes, Boss,"

An Zhijie nodded repeatedly.

However, just at that moment, the television on the first floor, which had always shown no signal, suddenly flashed with a new image.

It might have been a recently restored communication signal, and the broadcast began with an explanation about the appearance of these monsters,

"...This is not a disease spread by any means, but a curse lurking deep within people\'s hearts. It likely came with the rainforest that fell from the sky. If anyone notices symptoms like nosebleeds, fainting, or hallucinations in suspected patients, please isolate them immediately..."

Even Tao Yu was somewhat surprised to hear this.

He initially thought it was a contagious disease, but now you\'re telling me it\'s something idealistic?

"Is this a unique product of the active world..."

Tao Yu pondered inwardly.

Then, the broadcast was followed by a live speech from Nan Bang\'s great leader, mainly motivational words, assuring everyone that they could overcome the crisis,

"...Whether it\'s the sudden rainforest or these monsters, nothing can defeat us..."

But before the great leader could finish, he suddenly started gushing blood from his nose and then the live broadcast was abruptly cut.

The great leader\'s sudden mishap undoubtedly frightened the survivors once again.

Just when things began to look up with the restoration of the TV signal and even a live broadcast, everyone had hoped for military rescue to come later.

But now, even the great leader couldn\'t protect himself, so what were they to do?!

Subsequently, almost everyone turned their gaze toward Tao Yu, as if they had found their pillar of support.

Although Tao Yu had shown dominance here,

his strength was fully capable of backing up that dominance.

Now, to survive peacefully or even break out of this predicament, it seemed they could only depend on him!

Admiring strength is human instinct!

"Who would have thought I\'d get to watch such a drama."

Tao Yu found the great leader\'s broadcast somewhat amusing, as what was meant to boost morale had instantly turned into a morale collapse.

"I\'m leaving first, stay safe."

Tao Yu patted An Zhijie\'s shoulder.

"Are you planning to clear out the monsters? There\'s a spider creature in the power distribution room. I nearly got attacked when I went there to flip the switch. Lucky I dodged quickly."

At this moment, the strikingly fit and dashing beautiful elder sister spoke up.

She was a retired special forces soldier, now a firefighter, with action capabilities that were top-notch among these survivors.

"You lead the way, I\'ll clear the nearby area first."

Tao Yu gestured for her to take the lead, and then proceeded with Cao Shaolin and Wino following close behind.

First, they had to secure this area as a safe zone, collect all the skills, temporarily settle them down, and then find two suitable vehicles—after that, everything should be in place.

The main focus was to stabilize the situation with the Chosen One; moving supplies wasn\'t urgent…

...

The difficult monsters in the apartment were few, and most were of an ordinary level.

The key was that the apartment had plenty of rooms, with most of the monsters scattered, not putting much strain on Tao Yu\'s endurance.

Handling them turned out to be rather uneventful, with Cao Shaolin and Wino providing support.

The only slight nuisance was a very fast-moving monster, which forced Tao Yu to use his innate ability to split it in half as it brushed past him.

Innate Time Control, though involving time abilities, didn\'t lose the original characteristics of Bullet Time; instead, it was even enhanced.

As of now, Tao Yu hadn\'t encountered any situation that necessitated the intervention of the original time loop, and the extent of Bullet Time was more than sufficient.

"Out with it, why keep following me? Seeing as you\'re trying so hard, I might even agree to your advances if you\'re lusting after my good looks," he joked.

Tao Yu teased the firefighter elder sister who kept adventuring with him in the apartment building.

She hadn\'t made any requests, just silently helped and had been by his side since they dealt with that spider monster.

If it were just for protection, following him and seeking out monsters would actually pose a greater danger; the first floor was clearly safer.

Tao Yu was naturally easy-going, and the woman was easy on the eyes with a pleasant personality, so asking her didn\'t seem like a problem.

"It\'s about my fiancé. He was also in this apartment, but then he mysteriously disappeared. I suspect it might be related to the recent events…"

The firefighter sister confessed truthfully.

This left Tao Yu speechless; she had a fiancé and was still flirting with him—what a playgirl!

"Did you find any clues?"

"No, but I received a message from him with an address. I know the place; it\'s a military base nearby…"

"Huh?"

Tao Yu had asked casually as he waited for the chunks of monster meat to coalesce into Yuan Force.

But he didn\'t expect to stumble upon some unexpected information.

"A military base?"

Taking a look at the firefighter sister\'s phone, Tao Yu\'s face showed a hint of interest.

It wasn\'t any positional data that was sent but a detailed map of the interior of a military base.

It looked like it had been snapped with a phone camera, with a red pen circling a particular area on the map.

Beyond that, there was no further information.

Given An Zhijie\'s foreknowledge of the events, the military was likely aware even earlier and might have already begun covert research.

The firefighter\'s fiancé also seemed shrouded in mystery.

"What does he do?"

"All I know is that he works at a medical institution."

"Is it far?"

The firefighter sister had been cautiously watching Tao Yu\'s expressions, and at his question, a spark of hope shone in her eyes.

"Not far, it\'s nearby. I can take you there if you\'re willing to go."

"Interesting."

Tao Yu\'s first fragment of the Heart of the World was obtained in a military base, and now there was another military base with research involved—it was enough to pique his interest.

He could do some initial scouting at the medical institution, and if there were no findings, he could consider checking out the military camp.

In this world, there had to be some unique Yuan Force items, right?

Even if it was just pure research data, that itself could be quite valuable!

Starshine City wasn\'t lacking in abilities related to foreign body implantation—complete research data on these monsters would surely be of value.

And this map pinpointed an exact location; if he could head straight for the target within the military camp, it would save a lot of time…

"But first, I need to see the strength of this skill."

Tao Yu turned his attention back to the chunk of meat that had completed gathering Yuan Force.

This was almost the last piece.

If he obtained an ability similar to the ones he already had, his survival capabilities in the current world would significantly increase…
