Chapter 3 Talent
On a square, in front of an old statue, more than two hundred young people with different expressions gathered here. They were all eighteen years old today, and they were also the young people who awakened their talents today.

There were more than two hundred young men, all wearing different attire at this time. Even though the styles were different, everyone was carrying a large backpack, and many of them were carrying various guns, weapons, and ammunition.

Many people are even still wearing cotton jackets in this sultry weather, and they refuse to take them off even though their foreheads are covered with sweat. The scene looks extremely weird.

At this moment, Uncle Hu was standing in front of the statue, waving his mechanical prosthesis that was full of power and mechanical sense, and saying something righteously.

“From the moment you were born, you owed the company a huge debt! The air you breathe, the soil you live on, and the food you eat are all gifts from the company!
"You are still alive today thanks to the company's protection! And now the company will give you another chance to change your fate..."

Listening to Uncle Hu's poisonous chicken soup in the audience, Tao Yu couldn't help but reveal a dead fish eye expression while wearing a cotton jacket, carrying a 20-kilogram backpack, and holding an assault rifle similar to an AK.

Although I knew that this was Uncle Hu's job, I never expected that such poisonous chicken soup could be forced into people's mouths. The most important thing was that judging from the excited expressions of some people nearby, some people might have actually drunk it.

The more than 200 people present here are all turning 18 today. They are truly peers, born on the same day of the same month of the same year.

Tao Yu, who had come here with Uncle Hu, had already gained a preliminary understanding that most of these two hundred people were peasants from other cities like himself.

Among the people in the outer city, a small number of them joined the security team and served as various small leaders in the outer city. They are children of people with combat talents.

Some differences can be seen from the equipment. Tao Yu, who owns an old assault rifle, is considered to be in the middle level. There are many of his peers who are worse off, holding shotguns, homemade rifles, or even sharpened steel pipes without guns.

After that came six or seven peers from the inner city, who stood on the other side.

The fully armed combat uniforms, military backpacks, bulletproof vests or full body armor and other equipment, and even three of them have installed mechanical prosthetics, completely distinguish them from each other.

In addition, there is a man and a woman standing behind Uncle Tiger with indifferent expressions on their faces, who are even more special.

Not only did they not join the team, but they were also wearing tight combat uniforms that looked very high-tech, somewhat similar to the black combat uniforms in Gantz. They were very different from the people wearing cotton jackets.

Judging from their equally handsome looks and the fact that they have the same birthday, they should be a pair of dragon and phoenix twins, dragon and phoenix twins from a big shot in the floating city.

"... In addition, today is also a lucky day for you peasants. The only big shot you will ever have the chance to see in your life has appeared before you.

"After entering the abyss, do your best to find Master Sun and Miss Sun. Anything they let slip through their fingers will be enough for you to use for the rest of your life. During the operation, you must obey their orders unconditionally. Do you understand?"

Uncle Hu emphasized in a roaring voice with full of energy.

"understand!"

The people below also felt quite excited. It was just as Uncle Hu said, this might be the only chance in their lifetime to meet such a great man. Even the young men in the inner city felt the same!

However, Tao Yu was not impressed by this, mainly because Uncle Hu had specifically instructed him before that he should avoid them as much as possible during the mission and not get close to them!
Although it is possible to gain benefits by following them, the risks are too great.

The children of such big shots must have strong innate talents. Moreover, they have been provided with nutrient solution and trained with various skills since childhood. Combined with the equipment they have and the initial wishes given by their families, it can be said that they have exceeded the end point of others when they are born.

When ordinary people are mainly asking for survival, these two must be seeking greater benefits, so they will urgently need cannon fodder to test various dangers.

The rewards can be great, but the risks are even greater!
No matter how great the profits and benefits are, you have to survive to get them.

The same goes for those fully armed guys in the inner city. The benefits on their side may not be as great as those two, and the risks are equally great, so they should be avoided as much as possible.

Instead, you can try to contact the children of some small leaders in the outer city. Uncle Hu greeted a few of them he was friendly with. Even if he couldn't help them, he could still help each other by banding together for warmth.

First of all, you must demonstrate your own value before you can be equally accepted. If you are not strong enough, you must recognize your position.

There is no love without reason in this world. Even Uncle Hu’s friendship is the result of the two families helping each other over the years.

If he had not been disabled and in a low period, even if our family could have been related to him through family ties, it would have been just a vassalage.

“…Okay, the time is almost up, and you already know what you need to know, but I still want to emphasize again that the main purpose of this half month is to survive!
"The will of the world will usually place you in a relatively safe fragment at the beginning, and then find the company's gathering place through the radio station. Only those who can successfully reach the gathering place are qualified to survive in the abyss!"

After saying that, Uncle Hu also raised his hand. At the same time, a ball of faint blue flame seemed to emerge from under the base of the floating city in the sky.

A beam of light instantly burst out from the flames and hit the statue whose face could no longer be seen. The next moment, a beam of light covered the square, and all the young people who turned 18 today disappeared instantly. But as the light disappeared, Uncle Hu, who was originally smiling, looked back at the statue and his expression froze instantly.

I saw a faint blue light appearing on the statue whose face was originally blurred, and then the blue light gradually gathered into a new small light ball which was absorbed by the statue.

This made Uncle Hu quickly take out a walkie-talkie from his body and said with cold sweat on his forehead

"Captain Zechuan! This transmission had abnormal fluctuations and failed to complete the area binding! New coordinates appeared!"

Everyone will automatically accept gifts when they reach the age of eighteen. In theory, it is the same wherever they are. The reason why they all gather here is to use the fire of civilization to complete regional anchoring so that this group of newcomers will not be too far away from the company's gathering place.

But the current transmission feedback shows that there is a problem...

There are endless fragments of the world in the cracks of the abyss. A slight shift may cross countless fragments. If you rely solely on traveling through the abyss, you may never reach the gathering place in your lifetime!

Although this kind of thing doesn't happen often, it has happened a few times in the past. Ordinary people from the outer city, even if they add a few children from the inner city, will be in trouble if things go wrong. They have to survive on their own.

But this time, there are two children of big shots from the floating city, so things are different!

However, the transmission has been completed, and this cannot be changed. It only records the coordinates of the abnormal area. Newcomers can choose to anchor near that area when they transmit in the future...

……

Yue~
The severe dizziness made Tao Yu want to vomit.

Coupled with the stuffiness from his cotton-padded jacket, he had no time to check the gift of the world's will the moment he landed. Instead, he deftly pulled out a small-caliber pistol with one hand, quickly put down the package and began to take off his cotton-padded jacket.

The reason why we came here wearing cotton clothes is that although this type of regional delivery is anchored in an approximate range, the fragments in the abyss change rapidly and may be dropped into a cold glacial area.

If you go there wearing thin clothes, you might be frozen to death without even having a chance to put on any clothes. Although it is a probabilistic event, I dare not take the risk.

It is much easier to take off the cotton coat now.

He threw the cotton coat on the ground and wore a set of cowhide armor made by his mother.

Tao Yu inserted the pistol into the holster on his chest, put on the AK-like rifle with a little paint peeling but still shiny, and skillfully put the bayonet on the front. Then he began to look around the surroundings.

The light was a little dim, but rays of sunlight still shone through the gaps between the branches and leaves above. The smell of dirt and decay, the sturdy trees all around, the soft rotten leaves on the ground, and the tangled roots all indicated the rainforest environment here.

My eyesight has obviously improved significantly. It should be a matter of talent. It seems pretty good.

All the familiar survival knowledge from the past eighteen years has reappeared. Besides the wish-powered creatures in various world fragments, the biggest enemy of the rain forest is actually poisonous insects!

He quickly began to tighten his cuffs and trouser legs, and at the same time took out a hat with a 'veil' from his backpack and put it on. Tao Yu also took out a bottle of potion and began to apply it on several key locations.

After doing all this, he began to check his own changes while holding his gun and keeping alert.

The will of the world has transmitted some relevant information into his mind in a non-textual but instantly understandable way, causing Tao Yu to become dazed after concentrating on examining it.

Damn it!
Talent 1: [Dynamic Vision] (B-), possesses very strong dynamic vision, and can more easily learn some vision and perception related skills, slightly increasing agility and reaction.

There is no doubt that this is a talent inherited from parents, and it is also the talent that this body should have. This is already quite good. After concentrating, one can feel the light ball of this talent, as well as the information that can be understood as if by instinct.

But compared with the dazzling golden talent next to it, it is nothing!
There may be many talents in this world, and it is even possible to improve or even increase talents after birth, but that has nothing to do with ordinary people. But now Tao Yu has a second talent!
Talent 2: [Divinity] (MAX++??), an outer god from the void? ?

Known ability 1: [Once certified, forever certified] Any improvement gained through practice will not decay, and any injury can be completely recovered by absorbing willpower or eating.

(An ability that needs to be improved through practice and willpower, similar to the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method, which can only speed up the recovery of injuries afterwards, but cannot solidify the ability card bug.)
Known Ability 2: [Mental Immunity] Ignore any influence and attack from the mental and soul sides.

Known ability three: [Deification] Strengthen existing abilities and talents by consuming willpower. When using enhanced abilities, additional physical strength and energy will be consumed depending on the strength of the abilities.
