Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"Three days later, from which day does the count begin?"

Tao Yu raised an eyebrow.

It was one thing not to know such details, but now that he did know, he had to go and inform Lin Chao.

However, the intelligence was obtained from a night assault, which wasn't exactly legitimate.

He would just have to find an opportunity to slip him a note.

Even if Tao Yu did trust Lin Chao, he certainly wouldn't meet with him directly.

Since he didn't know exactly which day the three-day countdown began, Tao Yu set out immediately that very night and left the city!

Now that his recovery powers from breathing in the Qi of Heaven and Earth had improved, he might not be able to move constantly within the shadows, but his duration had significantly increased.

In the blink of an eye, he had left the city gate and was heading straight for Lin Chao's house.

"I wonder if that kid is back yet."

As Tao Yu sped through the patchy shadows, he contemplated.

Apart from him and his sister, he didn't feel there was anyone else at the Chaoyang Society he could really count on.

But thanks to Unity of Heaven and Man, Tao Yu could sense that Lin Chao was at home. Moreover, as he drew closer, it seemed Lin Chao was awakening from sleep.

It had to be said, "Intuition" was starting to feel a bit mystical.

Tao Yu didn't want to chance a face-to-face encounter, so he threw a warning note written in crooked characters by a zombie.

The thin sheet of poster paper, sharp as a blade, slit through the gap in the window of their home and embedded itself directly into the wall.

After dispatching the intelligence, Tao Yu turned and left.

But as Tao Yu was leaving, under the sense provided by Unity of Heaven and Man, he detected several watchful figures emerging around the area controlled by the Chaoyang Society.

They hadn't been there when he first arrived!

They had just gathered.

And a faint sense of danger enveloped Tao Yu's heart.

Fuck, is it today?!

No wonder, no wonder three of their four senior partners at home came back today!

But the time hadn't yet come; there was still over an hour left.

For now, these onlookers appeared to be just some gang members from the nearby area, with mediocre strength.

The ones capable of giving him a faint sense of danger definitely weren't them!

"The Liu Yi family is responsible for long-range fire support, and they've been instructed to leave as soon as they're done; it's pretty clear that a lot of energy has been put into this operation."

Tao Yu's accidental encounter with the Liu Yi family was both a chance and an inevitability.

Because the uproar initiated by several forces in the Inner City was definitely not small, and surely involved many families.

Families like Liu Yi's were not central to the operation but more like a show of allegiance!

There certainly were many similar families.

"What kind of hornet's nest has Gu Qiu poked…"

Tao Yu murmured to himself, then sighed. Having collided with them, it wouldn't be good to just walk away...

"Attack! Attack! All non-combatants to the bunker, all of you!"

Lin Chao, awaken by Tao Yu, whether it was spotting the warning paper or his own "Intuition" had triggered, burst out from his home, bellowing loudly.

As he screamed, he also pulled on something in his hand.

Bang~

A firework shot into the sky, exploding violently, casting a red glow all around.

He probably wanted to draw attention, making those people hold back a bit out of caution.

The next moment, Tao Yu saw Lin Chao make an odd twist to dodge a high-speed sniper bullet aimed at him.

Dodging in the opposite direction of the shot at night, in a posture that defied common sense, also seemed somewhat nonsensical.

However, Tao Yu furrowed his brows slightly afterward. He could predict and reposition beforehand, but in the end, he was still limited by his strength.

If it was just one shooter, that definitely wouldn't be an issue, but if there were more...

Bang~

Lin Chao, having dodged two more shots, forcibly twisted his body, using his battle technique "Soft Body" to block a hit.

The special sniper bullet easily pierced through his body, but his intuition allowed him to minimize the damage, preventing the bullet from fragmenting upon rotation. It was just a simple piercing wound that didn't hit any organs.

The way he utilized "Soft Body" for this attack was far better than using tough skills like "Vajra" or "Fortress."

Lin Chao grunted, using the force of the shot to quickly jump away, avoiding further attacks.

"Sigh..."

Tao Yu sighed, and the shadows on the ground surged, instantly extending to envelop Lin Chao completely.

Without resisting as if sensing something, Lin Chao was willingly dragged by Tao Yu into the shadowy realm and pulled into a corner.

This was a minor experiment combining the second Deification stage of the Art of Corpse Refinement with the second Deification stage of Demonization along with previous abilities in Shadow Manipulation.

So far, so good, but the cost-benefit of using Shadow Force at a distance from one's body was indeed too low.

The amount used was enough to kill Lin Chao ten times over.

"Destruction is indeed easier than salvation."

After casually dragging Lin Chao into the corner, Tao Yu no longer paid attention to him and directly entered the shadows himself.

Nighttime was his playing field, what was there to fear?

Kill them all!

A bunch of rule-breakers came to gang up, just things that skulk about in the darkness...

Tao Yu had already pinpointed the location of the snipers who had earlier ambushed Lin Chao through the sound and direction, and in an instant, he lunged in that direction.

At this time, the nighttime patrol personnel in the Chaoyang Society-controlled street block and their headquarters' duty officers also responded immediately.

An irritating sound reminiscent of air raid sirens began wailing.

It served both to wake the sleeping people and to amplify its reach by spreading the sound far and wide.

"Get up quickly, we're under attack..., uh..."

"Pfft~"

"..."

Those hidden snipers had earlier pushed Lin Chao, who possessed Intuition, to the brink of defeat.

The people who rushed out to warn others and beat the drums were shot dead the moment they showed their heads.

They had almost no time to struggle or react!

But soon even more people began waking up.

One by one, oil lamps started to light up.

But the next moment, accompanied by the twinkling of the stars in the sky, rocket after rocket began to rain down from above!

Boom~ Boom~ Boom~

Soon, bursts of flames erupted on the streets and on the houses.

These makeshift buildings had no resistance to explosions, each rocket easily destroyed and ignited them!

Although the attack was not scheduled for this time, those who had already arrived didn't hesitate to begin their assault since they had been discovered early!

...

"Damn it, Intuition is tough to eliminate; what happened just now? An invisibility Skill? There's nothing in the intel; isn't he focused on Battle Techniques and only recently started learning some Inner Strength..."

A cyborg with a long rifle on its shoulder, its scope directly connected to its iris, clicked its tongue while standing on a rooftop, with a cruel smile beginning to emerge.

Then it continued to pick off other people who came out onto the street with a relentless barrage.

Even in the Outer City, such events couldn't happen continuously; if frequent large-scale bloodshed occurred, it would be severely investigated.

But just a rare one-off with a strong target is no problem!

So this time, they had to handle the matter thoroughly!

They were determined to cripple them in one fell swoop!

"Hmph, Intuition sure is a troublesome talent, but today you're undoubtedly dead!"

While continuing to pick off targets, the Pioneer sneered viciously.

Lin Chao, as the core of the Chaoyang Society's new Development Zone, had good interpersonal relationships within the Development Zone; his personality made it difficult to provoke dislike!

Even opposing camps sometimes couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

But such influential people are better off dead!

This was a matter of position, not personal vendetta...

"Whether he dies or not, I don't know, but you're definitely dead..."

"Who?"

As he turned around, a dark flash passed by, and his mechanical head, along with some wires and blood vessels, was violently blown clear by raw force.

Right after that, the self-destruct mechanism activated suddenly.

Boom~

A burst of flame shot into the sky, scattering the surrounding makeshift shanties.

And the shadowy figure that had narrowly missed the explosion once again entered the shadows and swiftly headed in another direction...
