Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Chapter 424: Chapter 379 Ambushed

“You’re not keeping your word.”

Grace looked at the unconscious Parker and Miles as she quickly sent them to the medical unit, while once again complaining to Tao Yu.

Technicians sure spoke with a firm tone.

Tao Yu didn’t really have any complaints about her character; after all, she was a plant biologist, and when it came to the cultivation of Yuan Force plants, she would be able to help.

And perhaps when searching for Eva, he might need her assistance too.

“I’ve already said they weren’t injured by me. We came here from another world, taking a long detour, and we haven’t even made contact with our main base yet.”

At this moment, Tao Yu called over Kisame’s squad to control the command tower here.

With the base now under stable control, Tao Yu then arranged for Hikariya Yo and his squad to attempt to make contact with the Sand Ninja.

Since their descent had started with negotiations prepared with Sand Hidden Village, and given the old ties from the Chaotic Era of the Abyss, it wasn’t a big issue for them to make contact to understand more about the problem.

A Jonin capable of standing on his own, leading a team of three Chunin, had more than enough skill to accomplish such a contact mission.

Although the sudden beheading was indeed a shock to all the RDA base staff and combat personnel, it wasn’t something they couldn’t accept.

Their home planet was gone; now, they were working merely for themselves.

Before, they maintained resistance and combat because they didn’t know what would happen if they lost. If possible, they naturally wanted to control their own destiny.

Moreover, that Harkonnen Family sounded just like those medieval nobles; god knows what would happen if they fell into their hands?

The Sand Hidden Village Ninja were the same, and so were the Pioneers after them.

It could be said that the RDA employees who had lost contact with their home planet were like ducks forced to the water, and only because of the strong military commander like Miles had they held out until now.

Now, with both Miles and Parker seriously injured, and the higher levels of their homeland taken down, it was only natural for them to accept surrender obediently.

Due to a lack of available personnel, Tao Yu could only maintain the base’s original operation. Before Hikariya Yo left on his mission, he arranged for their disarmament along with them.

It was like how invaders, once they occupied another country, preferred to set up puppet governments first, because with more people came more issues, and there simply wasn’t the energy to sort it all out.

That was the most they could do for now.

“Now let’s make contact with the Pioneers. Do you have their communication frequency?”

“Yes, they’ve taken over several mining areas, and we’ve maintained a hotline to avoid any misjudgments.”

Grace was aware of the current relationship the RDA base had with the Pioneers.

They were already clashing with the Harkonnen Family and Sand Hidden Village Ninja, but with the Pioneers, it was still primarily tentative.

No one wants to fight on multiple fronts; once the fighting starts, it’s hard to bring it to an end.

“Please make the connection now.”

“Okay.”

Tao Yu had already taken control, had seized the core of the base, and every command was issued and controlled from here. They all obediently followed his orders.

Before long, a handsome figure appeared on a super-large projection screen in front of them.

Wearing the standard white robe of Floating City, with black hair and a youthful appearance, a bit like a milk-fed youth with traces of baby fat on his face.

Tao Yu recognized the identity of the newcomer at a glance, Andy Klein, a member of the Klein family of Floating City.

He was also the young master of Star Auction House that Tao Yu often visited.

From previous understanding, aside from the Suns’ direct subordinates, the side stations of Floating City in the new Development Zone were mainly two groups. One consisted of Harkonnen, Pavas, and Liu Tao, and the other, more numerous group, was a separate faction.

Andy Klein belonged to this other group, and the manager of their subordinate auction house had even made a subtle invitation to Tao Yu before.

So, when Tao Yu recognized him on screen, Andy, too, recognized Tao Yu and said with some surprise,

“Oh? Isn’t this Mr. Eight-Armed Vajra? What brings you to that side? You haven’t been back to the Development Zone in a while.”

Andy Klein, with his slightly baby-faced look and soft tone, seemed delighted to see Tao Yu there.

“Young Master Andy, is the young lady there? I would like to speak with her,” Tao Yu said, neither humble nor arrogant, prompting some surprise and curiosity from Andy.

“What’s the matter? Am I not qualified enough? What have you done? Uh, you didn’t just take over the place, did you? Pavas seems to have gone over as well. Have you teamed up?”

“I’m not sure about young master Pavas’s situation. I led my people through another fragment from the neighboring world, because it just happened to be a technologically oriented world. We used the signal of the natives there and directly entered their base, finding a good opportunity.

“I also have a few good helpers at my side, ninjas from another village, very strong.”

Tao Yu casually described the situation, not wanting to rush things with the Floating City aristocrat.

After all, he couldn’t go through the internet to kill him, and having already eliminated two, he really couldn’t kill any more, not wanting the whole world as his enemy.

“Very impressive,” Andy Klein said without any self-awareness, his eyes gleaming.

“You came from the outer city, right? Truly remarkable, to soar to the heavens with talent and a bit of opportunity. This achievement is at least at the million-level reward, but I won’t fight with you for it. Yet, this matter doesn’t require the young lady’s decision. I’ll arrange for people to come over and help with the handover.”

Andy Klein seemed somewhat unconcerned.

“I want to see the young lady.”

Tao Yu repeated himself once more, prompting Andy to sigh on the other end.

“All right, all right, I’m scared of you. Who made you a legitimate descendant of the Suns? Just wait.”

After speaking, he opened the holographic projection in front of Tao Yu using his own wristband and began requesting a connection.

However, no image appeared on the other side, just the somewhat cold voice of Sun Shiyu.

“What’s the matter?”

“‘Eight-Armed Vajra’ Tao Yu seems to have taken over the control center of the RDA base and requests to connect with you.”

“I know, wait for me.”

Andy looked visibly stunned by Sun Shiyu’s response in front of the screen.

Coming over personally?

Isn’t it just a matter of redirecting the signal?

Andy’s expression grew more nuanced as he glanced over at Tao Yu curiously and said,

“True descendant, huh? Tsk tsk~, seems like your treatment can almost compare with ours.”

“Master Andy overstates.”

It wasn’t long before Sun Shiyu’s graceful figure appeared on the screen, and then she casually waved at Andy,

“You may leave now.”

“Yes.”

Andy craned his neck for another look at Tao Yu on the screen, then quickly left the room on that side.

“You’re quite fast, to resolve the issue so quickly.”

After Andy left, Sun Shiyu had a radiant smile on her face.

The holy temperament brought by the Sword Canon of Mercy, combined with her stunning beauty and enchanting figure, was captivating even through the screen.

For the development base here, there was already world oppression to contend with. The Pioneers also had to be mindful of the Orbital Weapons above, so they wouldn’t tear their faces apart lightly nor push too hard.

So it was a matter of continually probing the edges, slowly feeling out their bottom line like slicing sausage.

But for Tao Yu, who understood the original story and had already had some corroboration from Pavas, his courage was much greater, and he directly solved the problem.

“I was lucky, encountered a suitable opportunity. I hired two teams of Ninja from Hidden Mist Village, but there are also some troublesome matters that might need a face-to-face meeting.”

Tao Yu’s words made Sun Shiyu pause. If it was something he wouldn’t mention over a remote connection, then it must be a significant issue.

What kind of major issue would make him do this?

Suddenly, a line of frustration crossed Sun Shiyu’s forehead. Pavas hasn’t returned yet, has he? It can’t be, how long had she managed to keep the previous issue under wraps…

This gave Sun Shiyu a bit of a headache.

“I know, I will handle the troublesome matter, I’ll come over.”

Although it was a bit of a headache, she took on the matter decisively. After all, she had to dote on her own man—why would she let those bad women do it?

And as Tao Yu saw the nuanced expressions of the little rich woman, he understood that she might have guessed something.

But she probably just guessed that he had dealt with Pavas. The troubles that Pavas caused afterwards might still be unclear to her…

…

Just as Tao Yu had just ended the communication with the little rich woman and was preparing to get a better understanding of the base’s situation, an alarm suddenly sounded nearby.

“What’s the situation?”

Tao Yu asked the technician sitting over there.

“The mining area, it’s the mining area that’s been attacked. It seems to be the Harkonnen Family and those Ninja. After we sent out the surrender message, there seems to have been some problems with patrol shifts, and they seized the opportunity…”

Hearing this, Tao Yu sighed,

“Kisame, come with me. The rest of you, watch these people.”

After saying this, he formed a hand seal with one hand, and two Water Clones materialized beside him.

If there’s any emergency situation, use these to send messages. Leave two just in case.

“Let’s go have a look.”

The mining area is the resource for the future Development Zone!

Having seized it himself, he was entitled to some dividends now that the company had discovered it and begun to move on it.

But with the little rich woman on his side, she should be able to grant him something!

So, to some extent, this was also his mining area now…

Sharyin or Sand Hiding Village, like Hidden Mist Village, wouldn’t choose to be hostile to Tao Yu if they could avoid it.

But, not wanting conflict does not mean being afraid…
