Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"Idiot! Brake, brake!"

A military green RV, resembling a truck, awkwardly veered down the highway, Tao Yu watched as Little Black nervously gripped the steering wheel, his face contorted with ferocity.

Aren't Aliens supposed to be smart?

Despite having a mind-link, they could still manage to meander in the shape of an eight on such a straight stretch of road.

"If you can't drive straight by the time we get back to base, there will be punishment! But if you can, there will be a reward!"

Tao Yu offered both carrot and stick.

Sure enough, the effect was quite good. Although still lacking, at least now they could maintain a straight line on the straight highway.

Even though it was still bad, it at least validated Tao Yu's idea of coaching Little Black to be a driver in the future.

Looking ahead at the gate of the base, which had already changed a lot, with many more people coming and going, Tao Yu also felt somewhat emotional

"The base can get this busy in two months. They're working hard. There must be quite a few new Pioneers, but probably more survivors..."

With no cannon fodder quota in the new Development Zone, and the high mission rewards, there were likely many willing to take the risk.

And even those from the Outsiders who were willing to come must have had some resources. With the task of welcoming newcomers and the cleansing of Aliens, the survival rate should have gone up…

Tao Yu thought to himself, when already someone came over to wave and signal.

When that person saw Little Black driving, fear visibly flashed across their face, and they instinctively grabbed their gun, but they didn't take any drastic measures.

Before he could say anything, Tao Yu thought of something and fished out a pass specially delivered to him by Panda, showing it briefly.

Then he was quickly allowed through.

"Not bad at all, the registration management is orderly, with both Pioneers and natives."

Tao Yu looked at the people at the base entrance, then drove towards the interior of the base, which was clearly much more populated.

Soon, someone like a security officer began to signal, guiding Tao Yu towards a parking direction. It seemed that large vehicles like theirs could not enter further and had to park at the outside parking lot.

Tao Yu didn't mind at all and complied with the directions, parking in a spot reserved for large vehicles.

Turning his head, he saw the company's trucks parked nearby.

"Look after the house with Little Cao."

Tao Yu admonished Little Black before he opened the door, got out of the car, then picked up the walkie-talkie and adjusted it to a certain frequency to speak inside,

"Are you at the base?"

"Yes, boss, you're back?"

Panda's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

Since the trucks were parked here, Panda and the others must have been dealing with matters at base.

"Yeah, I'm done with my stuff for now."

Tao Yu said while chatting through the walkie-talkie and walked toward the interior of the base.

At this time, some handmade signs were hanging around the base, albeit with a bit of an ad-hoc feel to them.

However, arrows for the new registration office, mission office, warehouse, and trade center had already been marked.

After entering the base, several adolescents ran up and asked in broken Common,

"Sir, is this your first time here? Do you need someone to show you around? Just some food in return will do."

Tao Yu looked at those kids around fourteen or fifteen and knew they must be surviving natives. He casually asked,

"What's the matter? No work station?"

"It's too tiring..."

Such a straightforward answer, but indeed, it matched the company's style.

Even though zombies brought a lot of danger, in the past, survivors who found a food storage point could live off it for a long time.

But under the company's management, they truly had to work every day.

Safety was indeed improved, but undoubtedly it was exhausting.

For survivors who only barely managed to stay alive, they almost exclusively felt the fatigue. The dead wouldn't come back to life to suggest a swap.

"Sooner or later, you'll have to face it. I'm not new here, find someone else," said Tao Yu, casually tossing a can of food out. It was something Little Black had randomly picked up, and Tao Yu himself didn't really care about it.

He paid no mind to their profuse thanks. The canned food was not for those few words of gratitude; it was purely for his own satisfaction.

But Tao Yu knew that if they wanted to survive here, they would sooner or later have to adapt; saving someone temporarily won't save them for life.

"Boss, this way."

Tao Yu heard Panda's voice and walked towards him.

At 2.3 meters tall, Panda's height was the best form of identification, and no one nearby dared to get close.

Inner City Pioneers were now definitely big shots here, not to mention Panda was quite famous himself.

The owner of Dada Transportation Company, his fleet of more than a dozen heavy trucks, had been making a killing during this period.

The Outsider Pioneers who followed him also reaped pretty good profits.

"Not bad, you've gotten stronger."

Tao Yu glanced at the glowing Panda with Spirit Perception, vaguely sensing the explosive strength beneath his towering frame.

Although he couldn't be more specific, he must be much stronger than the last time they met.

"I can't compare with the boss, but after all the Yuan Force I've invested, there should be some effect. Besides, I went back once and got another organ implanted."

Panda chuckled hehe.

This was the convenience of xenogeneic implantation—being able to withstand another implant at an early phase is transformative.

Even so, Panda was very honest in front of Tao Yu.

At least for now, he was no match for Taff, and the man before him was the one who had killed Taff.

"How's the situation recently?"

"It's going well, but the profits can't stop declining. It's estimated you can take about eighty thousand this month, Boss, but it could drop to twenty or thirty thousand next month, and after that, it might be ten thousand a month. The main profits come from two-world transport..."

Panda gave a straightforward estimate.

Indeed, their job was a short-term bonanza.

"However, a monthly profit of around ten thousand for about a year shouldn't be a problem. I won't be following the team next month; I'm going to look for new revenue streams. There are opportunities everywhere in the beginning."

"Yeah, earning this much is already enough. How about the alien hunting situation? Has the subsidy for each alien been reduced?"

Tao Yu was not surprised. As an Inner City Pioneer, the income from the first few months was indeed enough to allow him full surveillance, but it would be a bit of a loss if he continued to focus on that later on; it was better to take it slowly.

As profits diminish, to some extent, so does the danger.

"No, the situation over there is actually not very optimistic. The Suns have made several special trips, captured two Queens, and just managed to prevent the alien numbers from growing massively.

"The Rainforest has too many creatures, and most of the newcomers' casualties are caused by aliens. Now the extra reward for killing has risen to 150 per alien."

Panda seemed to have also caught the aliens' attention and was very knowledgeable about them.

"Besides, the current price for Alien Tails is around 150 Yuan Force, and Alien Mouths 300. If you can put together a set, you can ask for about a ten percent markup. We're also buying now, not sure if we can make it work."

"While we can make money now, it's best to earn as much as possible before it becomes too common."

"That's true. I dare not buy liberally for fear of being stuck with it."

Panda shuddered at the thought of the aliens' expansion and reproduction capabilities. If it hadn't been for the Suns being strong enough to target the Queens from the start, by now probably all newcomers would be dead on arrival.

Even now, with the newcomers having some capabilities, the death toll still exceeds fifty percent.

"Alright, I've got a good understanding now."

"Boss, are you planning to hunt aliens? Together?"

Panda's interest was piqued, and he asked tentatively.

"No, I'll try it alone first."

With Little Black and Cao Shaolin around, and considering his current strength, he naturally didn't need to tread on thin ice as before. Going alone actually allowed him more freedom to act.

If he joined a team now, the efficiency and profit would probably be even lower.

Hard training up to this point was precisely for the sake of safety and efficiency…

"Alright then, call me anytime when you're free."

"Sure."

After chatting with Panda for a few moments, Tao Yu went to the mission hall alone.

Looking at the LED displays and various liquid crystal screens in the mission hall, in terms of class, it was much more upscale than the mission hall in the current world's fortress.

However, there weren't many people; overall, it was still in the early stages. But because terminals had been brought over, information from the current world was transmitted here regularly, allowing the same opportunity to earn various points.

Tao Yu came mainly to systematically understand the recent situations, because even though he listened to the broadcast every day, not every single detail could be reported...
