All People's Abyss: My skills are infinitely enhanced

Chapter 16 Urgent Urgency

Because he didn't have many willpower points, and wanted to save up for divine skills when there were no major safety risks, Tao Yu usually used one or two points of willpower to accelerate.

With the 150 points he had now, he originally wanted to save up 300 to deify [Lurking Python].

The increasing consumption of deified skills and training is actually somewhat similar, and the speed of consumption increases very quickly. For example, it takes more than 100,000 units of willpower to deify the talent [Bullet Time] again, and about 30,000 units of willpower are needed for [Basic Breathing Method·Modified].

Perhaps the effect will be very good, but the cost-effectiveness is certainly not as good as the first deification of ordinary skills, and it cannot be accumulated in a short period of time.

The 300-unit consumption of [Lurking Python] made Tao Yu curious, but he also felt that this ability could help him improve his life-saving ability.

But now that he had seen the facehugger and the giant python with its belly ripped open, Tao Yu could no longer hold on to it!
As for the current physical enhancement effects, they are still not enough in the face of bullets. His maximum lethality actually still depends on the ability of the firearm, so Tao Yu has set his sights on the skill of [Basic Shooting]!

Although this skill can only be displayed when one has just reached level 1, it requires bullets to be fed, so it is a relatively high-cost ability for Tao Yu.

When Joseph and the others began to discuss the strange shape of the facehugger, Tao Yu had already focused his mental energy on [Basic Shooting].

Soon afterwards, with the infusion of willpower, the light ball of the skill also brought out a ray of golden light.

[Basic Shooting? ?] Level 1: Consume a small amount of mental energy to have the ability to slightly modify the shooting trajectory. Concentrate your mind and consume a lot of mental energy to greatly modify the trajectory of the bullet, and at the same time attach a mental shock based on the attached mental energy.

After adjusting his own will to [Basic Shooting·Modified], Tao Yu felt a hint of joy in his heart.

Very good, even beyond my expectations!

Not only does it greatly enhance its hit rate, but the passive dynamic vision added by [Bullet Time] is even more powerful, and it even increases the 'magic damage' such as 'mental shock'!
If it were an ordinary person, with low mental strength, he might hurt himself by random mental attacks. However, Tao Yu has [Mental Immunity] so he is not afraid of the backlash no matter how serious it is. It is similar to physical strength, he only has the burden of consumption.

Tao Yu's strongest attack now relies on external force, so he can easily deal with the giant python. After all, this generation of giant pythons does not have the ability to resist assault rifles. As long as he can lock the head, he can kill it.

This is also the reason why Tao Yu did not upgrade his shooting before, because the firepower was already sufficient, and the hits were also coordinated with the passive dynamic vision brought by [Bullet Time].

But now that the facehugger has appeared, coupled with the parasitic python, it is very likely that assault rifle bullets will have difficulty penetrating the defense.

The alien thing has an exoskeleton!

Although not immune to bullets, ordinary aliens can withstand a lot of bullets. The increased defense of the python alien can probably ensure that it can knock itself out when it attacks!

No matter whether it is a giant python, an ordinary alien or a giant python alien, Tao Yu knows it clearly and he can only take it.

The best you can do is rely on the ability of [One Certificate, Forever Certificate] to consume your willpower to recover.

If you encounter a giant python, you can expect the python to eat like that and swallow you directly, escaping from its stomach, but the alien's cherry mouth...

Thinking of some scenes, Tao Yu quickly threw those mental pollution out of his mind.

With the enhanced attack capability, Tao Yu felt more confident, but when he thought about the difficulty of the aliens and the unpredictable number of them, he still felt a sense of urgency.

Seeing that the people there had finished their research on the facehugger and the snake corpse and were about to set off to the snake's den without coming to any conclusion, Tao Yu spoke at the right time.
"Um, Lord Wino, how good is your armor at defending against assault rifles?"

Tao Yu's weak tone made Wino frown in his helmet, and then he sneered through the helmet with a distorted but still majestic voice.
"What? You want to shoot me from behind?"

This voice also made others turn around and look at Tao Yu, who quickly waved his hand and said

"No, no, no, you misunderstood me. You are a big shot in the inner city. I wouldn't dare to do that even if I had a hundred guts."

Tao Yu's statement actually did not cause any surprise, and people from outside the city like Li Le did not think there was any possibility of such a sneak attack.

These two are big shots in the inner city, and they are a team!

Only a crazy person would make such a stupid choice.

But Tao Yu still hesitated and continued
"Before, we were just dealing with those giant pythons. I didn't feel any pressure because I wouldn't let Zhang Wei go forward. I just had to fire without thinking. With my talent, it wasn't difficult..."

After hearing this, the others actually came to their senses, because Weino's outfit was obviously designed for close combat.

If he had to rush forward and chop, there might be accidental injuries if Tao Yu shot inaccurately.

Before Weinuo could speak, Li Le raised his eyebrows and said

"You can practice basic shooting before you come in. After you come in, you can add some willpower to familiarize yourself with it. It shouldn't be that difficult, right? I'm already halfway through level 3 proficiency even without any bonus to my talent for shooting. As long as I pay attention, it won't be a problem." In addition to [Basic Shooting], Li Le also learned [Gun Fighting] and [Mobile Shooting] before he was eighteen. After coming in and using willpower to speed up, his shooting ability is indeed not weak.

"Brother Li should know a little about me from Uncle Hu. The main reason is that my family can't afford to feed me so many bullets. I didn't practice shooting when I came in, but only practiced breathing techniques. Zhang Wei knows about this."

Tao Yu looked embarrassed.

"So what's your shooting level?"

Vino asked a little nervously. His armor did have good bulletproof function, and there was inner armor inside, but in order to be able to move freely, there were still some places that were not protected. It was not like the integrated combat suits of the two people in the floating city.

If you are really unlucky and get shot in the knee while fighting, that would be really troublesome.

"Level 1, and the proficiency is almost empty, so I would like to borrow some willpower from the two adults. I am willing to use this bottle of 'happiness' as collateral."

Tao Yu took out the 'Happy' candle that Joseph had given her, which made several people at the scene look subtle.

Wall, Chen Guan and others were all envious, while Joseph, Wino and Li Le all had strange expressions on their faces.

Joseph, in particular, was a little speechless. Didn’t I give this thing to you myself?

You turn around and mortgage it to me, so that I can lend you my power of vows?
"Hey, Joseph, are you going to give your man to me? Actually, his talents are quite complementary to mine."

Wino did not refuse outright. Instead, he looked at Joseph with a playful look.

"B-level talent, what are you thinking?"

Joseph sneered and rejected Wino, then looked at Tao Yu unhappily.

"If you want to borrow the power of will, just tell me earlier. I'll give it to you, so what's the point of mortgaging it?"

This generous attitude made the other people from outside the city look envious, especially Wall and Chen Guan, who had begun to change their mindsets and thought that Tao Yu would be in trouble if he displeased Vino. They also corrected a lot of their inner perceptions.

Zhang Wei's expression also changed, showing hesitation, but he still didn't dare to approach Tao Yu as before.

"Thank you, thank you brother Joseph."

As Tao Yu spoke, he handed over the one thousand drained wish power metals given by his parents.

After being eaten by the giant python and then killing the python, these wish-power metals were finally recovered.

This made Joseph speechless after he thought about it.

One thousand, although it is just a small number for him, it is not something that can be ignored.

Just thinking of Tao Yu's talent, he readily injected his wish power into the bag of metal.

In order to avoid killing each other, the world will not allow pioneers to drop any willpower when they kill each other, except for some things they carry and willpower items. The willpower transaction between each other mainly relies on the continuous absorption and injection of these willpower metals.

Or some more efficient carriers of willpower.

After Joseph finished injecting and handed it to Tao Yu, he said in a calm tone:

"But you also know that we can't lend out our willpower for free. After all, the risks of death or failure to repay are too great, so I'll just give you a token of my appreciation. Nine out of 13 will go back."

Before Tao Yu could speak, Li Le next to him said

"This is the lowest interest rate in our outer city. The 'skill installment' that can be chosen by the gyms in the several cities is also at this interest rate. Before awakening, it is almost impossible to borrow money. After awakening, it is also difficult for those with poor talents to borrow money. Lord Joseph is willing to lend money in such a risky mission. It is really kind and righteous."

People from the outer cities don't have much wealth, and the mortality rate on the day of awakening is not low, so they usually can't borrow money before awakening. Even after awakening, this kind of "low interest rate" can only be encountered when learning some skill tutorials, similar to a "student loan".

Anyway, they don't give you any willpower, they just teach you skills. If you really can't pay it back or something goes wrong, the loss is controllable.

Tao Yu took the bag of wish metal back without hesitation, and said cheerfully while absorbing it.
"Of course no problem, thank you Lord Joseph for helping me out of this urgent situation."

After absorbing it, Tao Yu handed it out again and said
"Can you give me another thousand?"
