Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"He's grown up..."

Tao Tong looked at what Tao Yu had brought back, a smile also appeared on his face, but after glancing at his own empty legs, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. However, he quickly brushed it off and said cheerfully,

"Hurry up, let me try this new gadget."

While speaking, he stretched out his hand to pat the folded wheelchair.

Then, Tao Yu also took a water bladder cushion out of the bag and placed it on the wheelchair.

"Sit on this, it's breathable."

He then helped his third brother transition to the new wheelchair.

"Hey, indeed, it's not bad, very nimble."

Tao Tong rolled the wheelchair in a couple of circles with his hands and seemed very happy.

Seeing his third brother like this, Tao Yu was also chuckling beside him.

It's been a long time since he had seen his third brother this happy.

"Where is sister-in-law, still at the farm? Has Shi returned?"

"Lao Ba is helping out at the farm. Don't always scold him; you used to be just as naughty."

"Not at all."

Tao Yu denied his third brother's accusation and then started to change the subject.

"Let me push you over there."

"No need, I don't feel like getting some air, it's dirty outside."

Having said this, Tao Tong took a gun and a bundle of old newspapers from his old wooden wheelchair.

They were those low-quality ink newspapers, but they were what the third brother used to kill time.

If you were to ask who in the family could read the most, it would definitely be the third brother.

"Lately, the outer city has been a bit uneasy, seems like the Skull Gang and the Wild Wolf Gang are fighting over territory, just be a little more careful."

Tao Yu nodded at his third brother's reminder.

They couldn't afford to subscribe to the daily newspaper, but whenever Shi went to hang out at the Chaoyang Society, he would often bring back some old newspapers.

Although the news was somewhat delayed, at the very least it allowed them to have a rough grasp of the overall situation.

Like being cautious of gang fights recently.

"No wonder Shi hasn't been running around; that's why."

Tao Yu didn't forget to take another dig at his little brother.

The Wild Wolf Gang and the Skull Gang were both gangs in South City, and it was said that they also had some complex backgrounds, like the selling of 'happiness' and some even lower grade goods they were mainly responsible for.

They were involved in gambling dens and flesh trade, and their influence had already expanded into those fortresses.

A few days ago, when transporting goods, I ran into some dumbasses who wanted a free meal who belonged to the Skull Gang.

They were used to being arrogant and domineering in the outer city.

But for now, Tao Yu didn't worry too much about these things. Not to mention his evident Grade A "Dynamic Vision," ever since the Lee family was wiped out, Uncle Hu had already become the deputy captain of the security team, responsible for the South City area.

Gang rivalries were inherently about interests, and they wouldn't get too confused...

Opening a can of beef and handing it directly to his third brother, Tao Yu also took two more cans and opened the door.

The familiar smell of cow dung hit him as he opened the door.

Unfortunately, having managed the farm for so many years and never having tasted beef, it was time to let his sister-in-law and younger brother have a taste.

Arriving at the cowshed, Tao Yu saw Tao Shi holding a rasp and meticulously trimming a cow's hoof, his skilled movements looking quite stress-relieving.

Seemingly hearing the noise of Tao Yu entering, Tao Shi looked up and was slightly surprised to see him,

"Brother, why are you back so soon? It hasn't been a month yet, hasn't it? Didn't things go well?"

The new Development Zone was full of opportunities for building up from scratch, and Tao Yu had previously estimated about a month's time.

"I finished a few days early, preparing to do some work, and I might not come back for one or two months."

"Be careful, if you're gone for too long be mindful of going mad, and if you're not feeling mentally well, hurry back," Tao Shi said with some concern. Their sixth sister was in trouble because of such issues.

"No worries, I'm already quite strong, and I've done a great service and got noticed by some important people," Tao Yu knew how to reassure them best.

Indeed, the moment their conversation ended, Tao Shi's spirit was lifted, and he began to ask about various experiences non-stop. Tao Yu chose some that he could share and talked about them.

Even though these were selected experiences, Tao Yu's recent adventures indeed far exceeded what normal Penioneers in the outer cities should undertake.

This left Tao Shi both shocked and surprised.

"Huh? You even met Brother Lin Chao? Hehe, can I go brag to him next time?"

"Sure, he's quite a decent person."

Tao Yu thought of the leader from the Chaoyang Society, who for now, seemed to still possess a heart of gold.

"Brother, you really struck it rich, huh? Our parents' decades of life in the Abyss probably weren't as exciting as this brief period of yours."

Tao Shi's eyes were filled with longing and anticipation.

Their parents had always preached the importance of living a safe and stable life, but Tao Shi, who was in the throes of adolescence and full of youthful vigor, disliked that kind of life. What was the point of a life where you could see the end from the beginning?

If you don't give it your all, can you even call yourself young?

"What nonsense are you talking about? If our parents hadn't been cautious, we might not have even been born. Do you know what the mortality rate is for those going to the new Development Zone?"

Tao Yu gave his little brother a disdainful glance. If it weren't for the fact that he was his own brother, he would be too lazy to spend so much time talking with him.

Although Tao Yu didn't inquire or tally the numbers, he was certain that the survival rate on Awakening Day for those choosing to go to the new Development Zones definitely wasn't more than fifty percent!

And those who chose to take the risk there generally had some confidence and family resources.

If these people were to change to an old Development Zone, there would be a survival rate of at least seventy percent.

"Hehehe..."

Tao Shi started to chuckle awkwardly before quickly changing the subject.

"Bro, what about getting a wife? There are many people asking about you lately, even that 'Dairy Cow Sister' you used to like is inquiring about you."

Tao Shi then started to make suggestive gestures. Read engaging stories on m vl-em|p-yr

At his age, even the sight of a thigh could make a boy restless, something Tao Yu had realized while learning the Meditation Technique with Sun Shiyu.

Despite that, hearing Tao Shi say this still made Tao Yu feel his toes digging into the ground. It was normal to have some vague adolescent fantasies before his memories were fully integrated.

But it was not so normal once they were brought up.

"What 'Dairy Cow Sister'? Don't talk nonsense. You better work on fixing your hooves. I'm off to register for a few missions," Tao Yu threw two cans of beef to Tao Shi.

"Remember to save one can for your sister-in-law, don't eat them all."

Meanwhile, Tao Shi was curiously inspecting the beautifully crafted can packaging and, not minding the dirt on his hands, wiped them on his body before starting to open a can.

Seeing the beef inside and smelling the aroma, his eyes lit up. He then picked up a piece and began to eat with relish, ignoring his brother, which left Tao Yu somewhat speechless.

Then he turned and left.

With his Grade A talent, it was expected that many people, apart from his parents, would be concerned about him. However, having already seen what the world has to offer, his standards naturally rose.

Anything that could affect the speed of drawing his weapon was unwanted...

...

"Welcome back, Partner Sir, your missions have been successfully uploaded and completed. You have earned a total of 2375 units of Yuan Force,"

At the mission hall of the Hound's Fort, Tao Yu once again enjoyed the exclusive treatment reserved for partners, served by the same pretty waitress as last time, whose eyes nearly set him on fire.

In less than a month, he had earned an income of over two thousand just from missions. He must have awakened not too long ago, right? Definitely a potential powerhouse in the making.

"Thank you,"

Tao Yu, receiving the mission completion certificate and the rewards voucher from the waitress, thanked her softly.

A mosquito might be small, but it's still flesh; if there are missions that can be done along the way, there's no reason not to take the rewards.

In fact, the mission rewards themselves revealed the abundant opportunities in the new Development Zone!

But for now, it seems the Suns are pouring money into it without any immediate positive output.

I wonder if that zombie head counts.

Under the wistful gaze of the pretty waitress, Tao Yu took his mission completion and rewards vouchers to the rewards collection area.

Since Yuan Force can be absorbed, most rewards were obtained there, and the staff behind the counter were usually under eighteen and not yet able to absorb Yuan Force themselves.

After verifying Tao Yu's certificates, the staff skillfully carried out the weighing process, handed over a small pouch that jingled with metallic sounds to Tao Yu, who absorbed it right then and there, and then returned a small pouch of Wish-Power Metal to the staff, completing the exchange.

This is actually the normal way for outer city Pioneers to obtain Yuan Force; Tao Yu's method of using a magnetic card for large transactions was actually unusual.

Even so, Tao Yu's earnings of over two thousand in the outer city were quite conspicuous...
