All People's Abyss: My skills are infinitely enhanced

Chapter 166 Geniuses from the Outer City
'Food City' is different from comprehensive city like 'Hound City'.

The most notable features of this fortress are its various chefs and delicacies. It has channels for breeding wish-power creatures from the old frontier area, and a large number of chefs gather here, making it seem as if this fortress has been turned into a food street.

As the sky gradually darkened, lanterns were hung on the machine gun towers of the 'Food City', and many torches were lit inside. There was a scent of pine in the air, and the interiors of several restaurants that were still open were brightly lit.

However, the consumption level in the outer city is so low that only some members of the security team can occasionally afford to eat out in a small restaurant.

The relatively better restaurants inside are aimed at the level of leaders of organizations in the outer city.

The average per capita consumption of a meal can reach dozens or hundreds of yuan, or even higher.

For most people from outside the city, this is absolutely unacceptable.

Having money doesn't mean you have to be so arrogant.

Those who can dine at these restaurants are considered capable in the outer city. They must at least be core members of the gang or squad leaders of the security team.

"He's very rich. He chose this place for a dinner party. I don't know how many people he invited. It should be only those with A-level talent or those comparable to A-level. If B-level talents are included, I'll be in big trouble."

Tao Yu arrived at the gate of the walled city. Even though he was not wearing the partner's uniform, it was quite easy for him to enter the walled city with his current appearance.

The 'Restaurant No. 1' where we had dinner was a small courtyard separated by a wooden fence. There were some green plants and flower beds inside, giving it a sense of tranquility in the midst of bustling city.

Four wooden attics are located at the four corners of the courtyard, guarding the largest hall in the middle.

There is a corridor connecting the attic and the middle hall, which is filled with oil lamps even as the sky gradually darkens.

This kind of environment appearing in the outer city made Tao Yu feel a little abrupt, and the style of the painting seemed to have changed.

"As expected, no matter how bad a place is, rich people still want to enjoy it. No wonder there are so many people who don't go to the inner city even if they are qualified."

Tao Yu had been baptized by his previous life, so this style of painting did not bring any shock to him, but he just felt a little emotional.

"Sir, do you have a reservation?"

A good-looking receptionist at the gate of the courtyard saw Tao Yu coming and asked in a gentle voice.

"B21, it's reserved by Mr. Niu."

"May I ask your name, sir?"

"Tao Yu."

"Yes, please follow me sir."

The smile on the beautiful receptionist's face suddenly became even brighter. When she was leading Tao Yu, she was very close to him and they would occasionally touch him physically.

Tao Yu had neither resistance nor initiative in this situation. Compared with the seductiveness of the young rich woman, there was no comparison at all.

The reserved place was not the central hall, but an attic next to it.

On the second floor of the attic, after going up the stairs, Tao Yu also saw seven or eight people who had come here and were chatting. It seemed that he was late.

Lin Chao is here too.

When he saw Tao Yu, he took the initiative to greet her with a smile.
"Brother Tao, we meet again. Every time we meet, I get nervous."

Hearing Lin Chao's words, Tao Yu also smiled

"That's because you have a good talent."

The communication between Tao Yu and Lin Chao also attracted the attention of others.

In fact, it can be seen that Lin Chao is now vaguely in a relatively core position among this group of people.

[Intuition] This talent is really great to have as a teammate, especially when exploring an unknown world.

"Brother Chao, is this the Brother Tao you mentioned?"

A pockmarked-faced girl who looked short and a little erratic asked Lin Chao.

The other person looked at Lin Chao with a look that was almost thready, as if he was trying to make conversation.

"Yes, a genius whose ability and talent are far superior to mine." While saying this, Lin Chao also introduced Tao Yu.
"This is also a member of our club, Wang Xiaoli, who has an A-level agility talent and can kill aliens in close combat alone. Her combat power is quite good."

"Hello."

Tao Yu nodded to the lively girl with pockmarked face and looked at the dagger on her waist. The fact that she could kill an alien at close range with a short weapon was indeed a manifestation of her outstanding strength.

At least this is the case for the newbies in the newly developed area. It might be a bit difficult for them to earn willpower on their own, so they should also have the support funds and even skills from the community.

No one present took Lin Chao's honest evaluation of "far superior to me" seriously.

You will gradually get to know Lin Chao's personality after getting to know him, and you will think that he is just being modest.

But even so, the seven or eight people at the scene mostly looked at Tao Yu with kind eyes. Many of them nodded with a smile when Lin Chao introduced him, or exchanged a few polite words.

They are all geniuses from outer cities, and they don't have the bad habits of those young masters from inner cities.

I would have been invited here just to make friends and form a team.

Only an idiot would make enemies here.

So the atmosphere on the scene was indeed quite harmonious. Apart from two people whose family backgrounds were relatively good in the outer city, most of the others had climbed up from the real bottom of the society and did not have any troubles.

"It's actually pretty good. There are four boys and four girls. I guess none of them have started families yet. Why don't we just divide it among ourselves and digest it internally?"

A burly man seemed to feel that the conversation was very interesting and laughed.

He winked at another tall, slender beauty next to him.

Among the eight people present, they were the two with the best family conditions. The man was the son of a city affairs officer, named Zhang Lei, and the woman's father was a squad leader of the security team, with a similar status to Uncle Hu in the past, named Zhao Yan.

Hearing this, the woman named Zhao Yan did not reject it too much, but just said
"Come on, the subsidies for newly developed areas are at their highest right now, and I don't want to get pregnant now."

As long as you have the talent, it doesn’t matter if you are ugly!
But she still glanced at Tao Yu's face.

Among the men present, Tao Yu has the best looks.

Of course it would be better if one could have both talent and good looks.

"I haven't thought about it yet. Please do as you please."

Tao Yu didn't want to extend this topic any further. They were originally having a good chat and she didn't want to ruin the atmosphere because of something like this.

"Me too."

Lin Chao followed suit and expressed his opinion, which made the girl with the pockmarked face look a little disappointed.

Looking down at her washboard, she felt that she was just malnourished and there would still be a chance for rescue when conditions improved.

"Well, if two people don't want to, then there's no show."

The rough man who proposed the idea shouted a few words, but did not pester him. Then he asked in a questioning manner:

"Do you know anything about this S-level big brother? I do have some gossip. It seems that his father is from the Food City. Although his status was not high before, it has suddenly increased after the appearance of his son with S-level talent."

"Oh? Now we only know that this big brother has an S-level talent. Do you know what it is specifically?"

"It seems to be [War Will], a comprehensive talent that takes into account both the physical body and the spirit. If the level is low, it will be a bit awkward, neither high nor low. But if the level is high, it will be very excellent."

"[War Will], although it is not as good as Brother Chao's [Intuition], it is also a way of dual cultivation. After the potential is fully developed, it is not easy to have shortcomings. And S-rank is a bit exaggerated."

Another man who looked a little thin also spoke at this time.

Although Lin Chao's [Intuition] is only B-level, it is almost equivalent to ordinary A+ to S- combat talent. He is the genius on the scene second only to the S-level talent.

Plus he has a good personality, at least people here don't reject him.

At this moment, the sound of wooden boards coming up the stairs was heard again.

Arrive before anyone arrives
"Thank you all for your kindness. I am Niu Changchun. I invited you all to come together this time to enhance our relationship and to facilitate mutual assistance in the new development area. After we enter the inner city together, we can also form a mutual aid association."
