With mutual interests intertwined, everyone''s conversation flowed more smoothly. Tao Yu briefly discussed the updates in the new world, focusing first on the military strength of Nan Bang.
Then, he mentioned the skills from this new world update.
"This ability is quite good. Even without the world''s enhancement, it''s still powerful," Tao Yu said.
He simply grew a keratinyer on his fingertips, forming ws that scratched a bloody mark on Panda''s tough skin.
"Can it cover the entire body?"
Panda felt the effect and was both shocked and pleased. This ability was extremelypatible with alien imntation.
Although he had already learned from Nuosen that alien imnts would be highly active in that world.
They were always fighting against rejection, adapting through medication. Treating it as pre-training wasn''t a bad idea after all.
"Yes, but the skill ''Demonization'' is based on the deepest desires of each person. Moreover, you need to be able to fully suppress it for fifteen days to be considered safe. Otherwise, there''s a risk of losing sanity, and additional Wish-Power will be required to expel it..."
Tao Yu''s ''Demonization,'' before Deification, was exactly like that. If he didn''t demonstrate the additional functions from Deification, there would hardly be any noticeable difference.
Moreover, ''Demonization'' varied from person to person. Each individual was different, with no two abilities being entirely the same. Tao Yu also went over the advantages and disadvantages of ''Demonization.''
"I have a vine here that I can lend you. If it gets too much, use it. But as for the pollution absorbed in the beginning, you''ll have to figure that out yourself."
Tao Yu handed a vine to Panda, who would have topensate with Wish-Power if he used it. If not, he could simply return it.
He had advanced Wish-Power many times before. It was a tit-for-tat situation, and Tao Yu could tell that Panda was very tempted by the capabilities of ''Demonization.''
"Haha, thanks, Brother Tao," Panda said, without any reserve.
Wasn''t the rtionship about helping each other to get closer? Other than one''s parents, any one-sided effort is unsustainable.
"It''s no big deal. We should head back andplete the task now," Tao Yu said casually, waving his hand. The remaining vines, along with research data and researchers, were more than enough to submit for the task.
Had he not collected an extra set of ''Demonization'' skill for Third Brother, he would not have minded selling it to the other party.
"There are many of us. I''ll arrange transportation for you, Brother Tao."
"Oh, has this base bought shares as well?"
"Under thepany''s name. You have a share too, Brother Tao. Heretics had shown up here before. But the location is really good, so everyone decided to buy a stake together here. It''s mainly for convenience. The profit isn''t anything special," Panda exined.
Tao Yu wasn''t surprised by Panda''s words. The buy-low-sell-high business involved risks, and with many involved, the profit share would indeed be limited.
But leveraging the convenience of holding shares, tasks like gathering intelligence or collecting specific materials would be much easier.
Like the current situation with transportation—being able to arrange vehicles immediately...
...
A modified bus drove along the highway, its front bumper reinforced with steel bars and windows covered with wire mesh. Continue your adventure with м??
Onboard were twenty soldiers from the Crow Squad, about a dozen survivors from the Green Family, and four researchers including Dr. Ren, filling up the entire bus.
A member of the Crow Squad was driving the bus, while Tao Yu sat in the passenger seat giving instructions and practicing the Meditation Technique.
Little cky resting on the roof, and Da Hei followed the bus, running alongside it.
On this slow-speed highway, the scene was quite harmonious.
asionally, a vehicle carrying Pioneers approached from the opposite direction. Many people curiously looked at Da Hei and Little ck on the roof but didn''t take any extra action.
Beyond this, they overtook Pioneers walking towards the base time and again.
They seemed to be newly arrived, each one covered in dust.
Seeing the base again, Tao Yu noticed some changes; more tents had sprung up, and quite a few people were digging water channels, seemingly to expand the drainage system of the base.
Tao Yu, who had heard the broadcasts on the road, had a somewhat strange look on his face.
Perhaps due to the increasing number of arrivals, the hygiene at the base had taken a nosedive.
In fact, Sun Shiqing had be so annoyed that she specifically dered in a broadcast that public defecation was not allowed and even threatened to confiscate the "tools of the crime."
"I don''t know how effective it will be, but this is originally a military base, so even tens of thousands of people eating, drinking, and relieving themselves shouldn''t cause a problem. It must be some people''s habits..."
Tao Yu knew that this was not just due to some bad habits of the outer city Pioneers; the survivors from Da Piaoliang weren''t necessarily much better.
"We can''t let this turn into the same hellish environment as the outer city..."
As Tao Yu''s bus approached, the presence of the Alien Queen drew the attention of the base guards from afar.
A Pioneer who had taken up guard duty, escorted by two armed locals, approached tentatively, visibly swallowing hard at the sight of the Alien Queen.
"Dear Pioneer, can the Alien Queen be leashed?"
The Pioneer asked nervously as he negotiated.
Then he took out a sign from behind him with several prominent words on it - nothing profound, just something easy to understand.
Like banning public defecation,plete with some abstract pictures to illustrate the point.
One was about keeping aliens on leashes, depicted in paint, with a clear message that the owner would be fully responsible for any bites, regardless of the reason.
"It''s just aliens written there, not the Alien Queen. Don''t worry; she doesn''t bite people."
Tao Yu didn''t have a leash on hand at the moment.
But soon another eagle-eyed Pioneer came over with a leash.
"Do you want to buy a leash, sir? It''s 10 Yuan Force each, strong and durable, with a recement guarantee if it breaks!"
What a business, it seemed that many people had already attempted to tame ordinary aliens.
When Tao Yu first tamed Little ck, he had no Skills at all; he just brute-forced it. Aliens indeed seemed to be quite sensible and tamable species.
"Give me two."
Tao Yu didn''t want to haggle over such a small expense. He took the Wish-Power Metal from the other man, infused it with Yuan Force, and tossed it to Little ck and Da Hei to put on themselves.
Those watching the aliens leash themselves and voluntarily hang the other end on the vehicle''s guard rail also whispered among themselves.
"Well-trained indeed."
"These are the most obedient I''ve seen so far; some even have their own muzzles and tie their tails around their bodies."
"There are still plenty of owners who got bitten by their aliens; it''s not an easy job."
"The Alien Queen has arrived. I bet there aren''t even two at the farm, must be a big shot..."
...
And so, Tao Yu entered the base smoothly with his entourage, leading the two aliens toward the mission hall.
First things first,plete the mission!
Two ''Chosen Ones,'' thetest intelligence, information and researchers on the vine, and samples of the vine itself, each could be traded for a handsome reward.
The second Deification of [Fist Intent] should be more than enough.
In addition, there might be unique missions rted to the Alien Queen, to see if she could be persuaded toy eggs here. Tao Yu didn''t need to keep Da Hei with him.
Although he could indeed be used as a mount, his size was toorge for many ces, and if he could generate a steady ie, Tao Yu was all for making money decisively...
