Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"Don’t sell me, I belong to a guild, you won’t be able to sell me in the black market because no one will dare to take me, I’m an advanced partner."

Lethal Bullet pleaded in a soft tone.

"Are you threatening me?"

Tao Yu cocked his head and glanced at him.

"No, no, how could I! My life is in your hands, sir, I just don’t want to lose face in the black market."

Tao Yu turned to look at Annan beside him

"Is that so?" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Uh, this is beyond my knowledge, I’ve never captured an advanced partner…"

Annan also dared not lie, otherwise, if he really couldn’t sell the other and then, angered, accidentally sold himself, what would he do? If he got caught because there was a bounty on his head, he still had a chance to survive, but being sold on the black market would truly be the end of him.

"It’s true, absolutely true, I’m willing to compensate you, sir!"

Lethal Bullet kept speaking, and his words gradually softened Tao Yu’s expression.

"How much?"

"I have a total of two hundred and thirty thousand Yuan Force on me right now, I’m willing to give it all to you, sir, and I don’t need my equipment either…"

Lethal Bullet’s expression turned bitter.

He genuinely and earnestly sought to save his life.

Normally, it’s rare for Pioneers who have been captured to be willing to pay.

After paying money and having already made enemies, they might as well just be killed and be done with it!

Giving money to murderers and enemies, no one wanted to do that.

It’s generally just a deception for naive youngsters.

But the atmosphere at the moment was a little sensitive because he was truly yielding, and although the place was remote, it wasn’t completely deserted, there was a chance for mediation.

"Sir, being willing to give Yuan Force after being caught shows a lot of sincerity. I truly did not know who you were, and from now on, whatever you command, I’ll be at your beck and call. I wouldn’t dare trouble you again, sir, what if I got caught again?"

Lethal Bullet was appealing to emotions and reasoning.

And Tao Yu fell into thought, then a smile appeared on his face.

"Oh no, since it’s just a misunderstanding, let’s just clear it up. Since you have only two hundred and thirty thousand, keep a thousand for food, and give me two hundred and twenty-nine thousand."

Tao Yu held out his magnetic card and released the acupoint in the other’s arm, and Lethal Bullet, without any hesitation, transferred the Yuan Force, all the while expressing his thanks.

"Thank you for your mercy, sir, for leaving me a thousand. Otherwise, I would have had to borrow some from a loan shark."

"Eh? How about I lend you another hundred thousand? A good deal, you repay thirteen for ten borrowed, just consider it as being robbed by me."

Tao Yu’s eyes shone slightly, making Lethal Bullet wish he could smack his own mouth.

"Haha, just kidding, relax your mind, I’m going to install a safety measure."

Tao Yu said to Lethal Bullet with a grin, causing a slight change in the other’s expression.

"Don’t worry, you’re quite good at Meditation Technique yourself, so you should be able to judge when the time comes. I’m just going to ensure you won’t become my enemy. If you entertain such a thought, or try to dispel the seed I’m planting, it will detonate as a warning— it won’t kill you, it’s just a warning to me. The next time I see you, if the seed is gone, then I’ll know."

Tao Yu was quite sincere, leaving Lethal Bullet no choice but to sigh helplessly.

He didn’t know what Tao Yu was planning to use, but since it involved mental power, it was definitely something quite dangerous.

But at this point, with himself lying on the chopping block and at the mercy of others, wanting to stay alive meant having no choice but to follow Tao Yu’s words and relax his mind.

Because of Lethal Bullet’s accomplishment in mental training, Tao Yu specially concocted a mental seed and implanted it into the other’s mind.

First, he used Spiritual Thorn’s modifying ability to morph it into something akin to an anchor to secure it firmly, then he used Soul Transfer to inscribe the corresponding rules, and finally, with his Fist Intention, he infused the Big Dipper’s deathly intent!

Although the other’s mental training was high, if he violated the rules, even if he didn’t die, he would still suffer great harm.

However, precisely because of the other’s high level of mental cultivation, Tao Yu couldn’t simply plant a Taming Technique seed; he had to be a little more crude. Otherwise, he really might end up with another laborer.

Now, he could only begrudgingly be considered an informant.

"You can’t remove it yourself, make sure communications are clear, leave me a message each month in the mission hall, rest assured, I’ll only occasionally want some information; there’s no intention of squeezing you dry,"

Tao Yu’s words caused ’Lethal Bullet’ to nod woodenly.

His mental cultivation wasn’t weak; he could vaguely sense the threat that this seed posed to him!

It was bizarrely located in his most core area, even if a meditation master were to help, it would probably be meaningless!

If, if what the other party said was true, then it wasn’t unacceptable...

After all, he had survived...

"Come, let’s add each other as friends."

Tao Yu extended his wristwatch to add a private channel with the other party.

Inner City Pioneers rarely had communication chips; usually, a radio was enough, or a phone line could be installed at home.

But advanced partners clearly weren’t included in this category.

"This is my partner code; remember to leave a message on time in the mission hall."

Tao Yu didn’t hide his identity, as he had not worn a mask to conceal his face when he went out to investigate this mission; it would be easy for the other party to inquire if they wanted to as an advanced partner.

Better to be straightforward.

"New, new pioneers? Development zone?!"

’Lethal Bullet’ looked at the numbers in the partner code, grasped the meaning behind several key numbers, and his face was full of shock.

How is this possible?!

A big shot from Floating City?!

I’m an advanced partner, after all!

"Nothing is impossible,"

Tao Yu spoke in a calm tone; this was about the limit of power he could display at the moment.

Previously, it all depended on the Divine Skill of Vajra Indestructibility, but once the teaching of inner strength began, it would naturally become clear what this was.

The advancement in his own strength and the acquisition of resources would all seem ’normal’!

And if ’Lethal Bullet’ did have ulterior motives, bearing the severe injury from triggering the explosion to contact somebody else or his ’union’ to deal with him,

even without considering the little rich lady, his own remaining strength was sufficient to give them a surprise.

But at present, this possibility also seemed very small.

As a mature advanced partner, ’Lethal Bullet’ knew how to weigh pros and cons; by his looks, he seemed far from anything insane...

"Were you planning to sell Annan to the black market before?"

After resolving the issue, Tao Yu also released the pressure points of ’Lethal Bullet’ Haus and put on his own partner mask; he was ’Eight-Armed Vajra’ after all.

"It’s not really like that, the black market is disgustingly filthy; I don’t like it either. However, lately, a few Inner City families are gathering these desperate outlaws, I sold a couple before, and the price could go up by twenty percent. Anyway, I have no use for the points now,"

Haus expressed indifferently, which made Tao Yu’s eyes slightly move.

It’s this again.

"I understand, hand over your partner badge to me; go get a replacement for yourself."

"Ah?"

Haus looked somewhat bewildered but still took out his partner badge and gave it to Tao Yu.

The badge for advanced partners was much more finely made; Haus’s badge had a pistol symbol, similar to the two guns Tao Yu had confiscated, which was probably a privilege for advanced partners to customize.

"Alright, that will do, sometimes I might use your identity to handle some matters, don’t worry, it’s nothing unforgivable; you just need to be a little more prudent,"

Since Tao Yu had said so, Haus naturally didn’t dare to complain, and in the end, could only leave dejectedly, wishing to get as far away as possible...
