Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"Tao Yu is formidable..."

As the problem was resolved and he left, Panda still seemed somewhat dazed.

He originally felt that he had almost caught up with Tao Yu.

But unexpectedly, the gap had only widened!

Having Gang Qi didn’t necessarily mean one was a senior partner, but it did indicate that one had crossed the hardest threshold and had a direct ticket in hand.

The other party was now on an equal footing with his own parental generation!

Even though Panda also believed he could reach or even surpass his father’s heights and had made a great name for himself in the new Development Zone,

to have reached this degree in just ten short months, the disparity was really too big.

Even after ten months of accumulation, the Inner City Pioneers with a foundation in the new Development Zone had all experienced no small increase in strength.

But at present, in the new Development Zone, there were only a handful of Inner City Pioneers who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the other party.

There are now over ten thousand pioneers in the new Development Zone, one or two thousand Inner City Pioneers, and now less than a hundred elites have made it through the intermediate partner level!

Those suspected of having the strength of a senior partner? Only in the single digits!

The number is probably not even as high as the bigwigs of Floating City.

This is the top-tier genius that could make the bigwigs of Floating City stoop down to recruit personally, capable of reaching the top of Inner City and perhaps even ascent to Floating City...

Zhang Lei had an expressionless face, feeling as if in a dream.

Originally, when they first saw Tao Yu become an intermediate partner, their proud and lofty group, while impressed, did not think they had no chance.

What they envied most was Tao Yu’s connection with the big shots of Floating City.

Now, half a year later when they met again, at first, Zhang Lei felt that he must have caught up quite a bit, as this half-year he had lived enriching and hardworking days, and his strength had also improved a lot.

And he had fully experienced that once strength reached a certain level, the cost and difficulty of further improvement increased exponentially.

Although Tao Yu would certainly be stronger than himself, who wasn’t even an intermediate partner, the gap shouldn’t be as big as it had been initially, as his further improvements must have cost him much more than what he himself had spent!

However...

Gang Qi!

This was something Zhang Lei didn’t even dare to think about before!

This was something that even the captain of the Outer City Security Force, Ze Chuan, didn’t have!

It was just too exaggerated!

"Now there shouldn’t be these troubles, right?"

Tao Yu casually said.

"Gone, and even if there are still problems, by the time we return and Bru makes the announcement, they will be resolved."

At this moment, Panda also appeared somewhat invigorated, if there were any bigger problems, that would be an issue for Young Master Sun to handle!

Having this major shareholder was truly perfect.

It’s not actually that scary to deal with things, but as the son of a senior partner, Panda clearly understood that one must have the capability to defend the value they create!

Effort is rewarded, and that in itself is a very satisfying thing.

"By the way, I’m looking for something that can fly, any recommendations? For expedited travel."

Tao Yu didn’t pay much mind to the issue that had already passed, and then casually inquired.

He had only had his rig for ten months and hadn’t spent much time in the current world, let alone in Inner City, so he needed to spend time learning some basic common knowledge.

"Long distance? Flight? Those are quite expensive..."

Panda, being a pioneer from the new city area himself, had also considered this issue, and as soon as Tao Yu asked, he already had several suggestions subconsciously.

"There are some specialized factories in the old Development Zone, with quite a few options for flying tools, but those that can be carried by an individual for interdimensional travel are quite limited, usually some kind of single-soldier backpack that can provide multiple rocket boosts at critical moments..."

Panda sighed, understanding that this was an easier concept for Tao Yu to grasp.

In the old Development Zone, there were many large personal flying devices exceeding the carrying range, and they offered a better cost-performance ratio. However, hoverbikes of the appropriate size for minor wealthy ladies exploded in price.

Tao Yu simply wanted something with a higher cost-performance ratio that he could afford.

"I did some research recently, and there are roughly two types that meet Brother Tao’s criteria. One is the standard solar-powered personal flyer, priced at 150,000 Yuan Force, with a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour and a full range of 1,500 kilometers. The downside is that it’s too rudimentary."

"The other is an energy charging hoverbike. Its shape is somewhat similar to that of the Suns’ two notables; it’s a castrated imitation version. With a full charge, it has a range of 5,000 kilometers—is a Yuan Force item, priced at a million, and you’d also need to spend an additional 100,000 for the charging system.

The charging time is quite a bit longer than the former, but it’s faster and more dexterous..."

Panda’s explanation had Tao Yu settling on the former right away.

A million could cover the cost of his Nine Yang Divine Skill’s second deification, and even though the Nine Yang Divine Skill was not quite ready for a second deification yet, the funds could be deliciously used for deifying something else.

Even though he had to deal with the Titans’ issue first, there would certainly be considerable expenses at Great Tang in the future.

"The first one will do. I just wonder if the battery for extended range can be replaced."

"It seems so. I’ll take you there, and you can just ask directly."

Panda had received over 200,000 as a share of the dividends before, so of course, he knew that Tao Yu could afford it. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Meanwhile, Zhang Lei, who was standing by and heard Tao Yu mention buying something worth tens of thousands, also had his own thoughts.

Even the earnings from reaching the mid-level partner’s quota would be more than this amount of money.

But to be able to spend such an amount all at once on something that doesn’t enhance strength, and has just a single function, was indeed quite a revelation to him.

This product, just by the sound of it, seemed to have average sales.

Not only is it not cheap, but it also fundamentally can’t carry any subordinates— it’s meant either for a lone wolf or for a small team of elites.

It could be useful with a very specific purpose, but it’s truly impractical for pioneering.

If it runs out of battery, you have to wait, and if left carelessly in the wild, it’s likely to get damaged or something.

However, thinking of Tao Yu’s Gang Qi, he felt relieved again.

It’s not the same level, thinking about the Emperor using a golden carrying pole is indeed somewhat presumptuous.

With his strength, he himself was a team...

...

"We are currently in a promotional period; for an additional 30,000, you can get an installed parachute pack and anti-collision airbags. Both the dedicated battery and the solar panels are priced at 20,000 per set."

Tao Yu looked at the personal flyer in front of him and was somewhat speechless.

It was completely different from what he had imagined, looking more like an oversized, foldable quadcopter drone.

The material was mainly light metal rods, completely hollow, with no windscreen—it resembled an enlarged version of a DJI drone with a cage hung underneath.

Ugly in appearance and uncomfortable to ride in, but it indeed satisfied the need for a personal flying device for long distances.

One could feel that several Yuan Force components emphasized stability, and there was a guarantee in the case of an accident.

But seeing the guarantee of ’compensation in case of an accident’ always made Tao Yu think of the parachutes with no bad reviews...

However, there was no helping it, given the price.

In the end, Tao Yu still ordered a set, and even prepared two extra fully charged batteries, causing his Yuan Force to decrease sharply.

"Also said that the house should be rented first, which can be done. Various expenses will be charged to the company’s account, and from now on, they’ll be deducted from the dividend each time..."

Tao Yu scratched his head. He didn’t plan on buying a house either; it would be too expensive all at once. Renting was more sensible.

Wang Goudan, with the convenience of being a mid-level partner, rented a nice two-bedroom, one living room for 3,000 Yuan Force. Renting a place for 4,000 would be enough for him to bring his family over.

"Although my father and the others will definitely agonize over the rent and daily expenses, the environment in the Inner City is indeed better..."

Tao Yu was resolved. For now, 4,000 Yuan Force wasn’t much; it would disappear with just a bit of Acceleration anyway. Besides, he would be wasting time traveling back and forth to the Inner City, and he needed a place to stay.

It was essentially just renting a larger space, and having various expenses added to the dividend account didn’t feel like much of an issue...
