Chapter 3 Talent
On a square, in front of an old statue, more than two hundred young people with different expressions gathered here. They are all turning eighteen today, and they are also young people who have awakened their talents today.
There are more than two hundred young people, all wearing various attires at this time, and even though the styles are different, everyone is carrying a large backpack, and many of them also have various firearms, weapons, and ammunition hanging on their bodies. .
Many people are even wearing cotton-padded jackets in this sultry weather, and they don't take them off even though their foreheads are covered with sweat. The style of the painting looks extremely strange.
At this time, Uncle Hu was standing in front of the statue, waving his mechanical prosthetic limb full of power and mechanical sense, saying something righteously.
"From the moment you were born, you owe the company a huge debt! The air you breathe, the soil you live in, and the food you eat are all gifts from the company!
"The fact that you can survive until now is also a gift from the company's protection! And now the company will give you another chance to change your destiny..."
Listening to Uncle Tiger's poisonous chicken soup in the audience, wearing a cotton-padded jacket and carrying a 20-kilogram backpack and an assault rifle similar to an AK, Tao Yu couldn't help but show a dead-eyed expression.
Although I knew this was Uncle Tiger's job, I never expected that such a level of poisonous chicken soup could be force-fed. The most important thing is that judging from the excited expressions of some people next to me, someone might actually drink it. .
The more than two hundred people present all have their eighteenth birthdays today. They are truly peers, born on the same day, same year, same month, and same age.
Tao Yu, who had come with Uncle Hu, had already begun to understand that most of the two hundred people were out-of-town bastards like him.
In the outer city, a small number of them joined the security force and served as various small bosses in the outer city. They were the children of people with fighting talents.
We can probably see some differences in equipment. Tao Yu, who owns an old assault rifle, is considered to be at the middle level. There are even worse peers who hold shotguns, soil guns, and even sharpened steel pipes that don’t even have guns. few.
Then there were six or seven peers from the inner city, clearly standing on the other side.
Heavily armed combat uniforms, various equipment such as military backpacks, body armor or full-body armor, and even the appearance of three people with mechanical prosthetics completely distinguish them.
In addition, there is a man and a woman standing behind Uncle Tiger with indifferent expressions, which is even more special.
Not only did they not join the team, but they also wore tight-fitting combat uniforms that looked full of technology at first glance. They were somewhat similar to the black combat uniforms in Slaughter City. Compared to a group of people wearing cotton-padded jackets, they were really The difference is huge.
Judging from their equally handsome looks and birthdays on the same day, they should be a pair of twins, twins from a big shot in the Floating City.
"...In addition, today is also a lucky day for you idiots. The only big man you have the chance to meet in your life appears in front of you.
"After entering the abyss, try your best to find Master Sun and Miss Sun. Any little bit they can find will be enough for your life. You must obey their orders unconditionally in your actions. Do you understand?"
Uncle Hu emphasized in a roaring voice.
"clear!"
The people below also felt quite excited. Indeed, as Uncle Hu said, they might have the opportunity to see such a big shot once in their lives, even the disciples in the inner city were the same!
Tao Yu, however, was not interested in this, mainly because Uncle Hu had specifically told them 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 real benefits by following them, the risk is too great.
The innate talents of the children of such big men are definitely not weak. Moreover, the young master and the eldest daughter have had nutritional solutions and various skills training since childhood. Coupled with the equipment on their bodies and the initial will power given by their families, it can be said that they have surpassed the level at birth. someone else’s end.
When ordinary people are seeking to survive, these two people must be seeking greater benefits, so there will be an urgent need for cannon fodder on hand to test various dangers.
The rewards can be great, but the risks are even greater!
No matter how great the benefits and benefits are, you have to survive to get them.
The same goes for the heavily armed guys in the inner city. The benefits for them may not be as great as those two, but the risks are also considerable, so they should be avoided as much as possible.
On the contrary, some of the disciples of small bosses in the outer city can try to contact them. Uncle Hu said hello to a few people he had friendship with, not to mention helping, but he could still do it by hugging each other for warmth.
First of all, you must first reflect your own value before you can be accepted equally. If you are not strong enough, you must also recognize your position.
There is no love for no reason in this world, even if it is Uncle Tiger, it is the friendship between the two families that has helped each other for so many years.
If it weren't for the period when he was crippled and entered a trough, even if his family could rely on family ties, it would be just a vassal.
"...Okay, the time is coming, and you already know what you need to know, but I still have 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 safer 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 Tiger also raised his hand, and at the same time, a blue flame of nothingness seemed to appear 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 ray 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 layer of faint blue light on the statue whose face was originally blurred, and then the blue light gradually gathered into a new small light ball and 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 has abnormal fluctuations and failed to complete the regional binding! New coordinates appear!"
Everyone will automatically accept the gift when they turn 18. 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 the regional anchoring so that this group of newcomers will not be too far away from the company gathering place.
But the current transmission feedback shows that there is a problem...
There are endless world fragments in the abyss rift. A slight deviation may cross countless fragments. If you rely on shuttling in the abyss alone, you may never reach the gathering place in your lifetime!
Although this kind of thing does not happen often, it has happened several times before. Some ordinary outer city mud legs, even with a few inner city children, will be deviated. They will survive on their own.
But this time, there are two children of big figures from the floating city, which is different!
However, the transmission has been completed, which cannot be changed. It only records the coordinates of the abnormal area. Newcomers can choose to anchor near that area in the future...
...
Yue~
The severe dizziness made Tao Yu want to vomit.
In addition to the stuffiness from the cotton jacket on his body, he had no time to check the gift of the world's will when he landed. Instead, he quickly pulled out a small-caliber pistol with one hand, and quickly put down the package and began to take off his cotton jacket.
The reason why I came here wearing a cotton coat is that although this kind of regional delivery anchors the approximate range, the fragments in the abyss change rapidly and it is very likely to be dropped into a cold glacier area.
If you go there with thin clothes, you may freeze directly without even having the chance to put on clothes. Although it is also a probability event, you dare not gamble.
It is much easier to take off the cotton coat now.
Throwing the cotton coat on the ground, wearing a set of cowhide armor made by my mother.
Putting the pistol into the holster on the chest, putting on the AK-like rifle that has lost some paint but is shiny, and then skillfully putting the bayonet on the front, Tao Yu also began to look at the surrounding environment.
The light is a little dim, but a ray of sunlight still shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves above. The dirt and decayed smell at the tip of the nose, the thick trees around, the soft rotten leaves on the ground and the coiled roots all indicate the environment of the rainforest here.
The vision has obviously improved significantly. It should be a talent problem. It seems not bad.
All kinds of survival knowledge familiar to me in the past 18 years appeared. In addition to 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 the bamboo 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 positions.
After doing all this, he held the gun and kept alert while checking his own changes.
The world will has passed some relevant information into his mind in a non-textual but immediately understandable way, which made Tao Yu fall into a stagnation after concentrating and examining it.
Damn it!
Talent 1: [Dynamic Vision] (B-), has very strong dynamic vision, and can more easily learn some visual and perception-related skills, slightly increase 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, you can feel the light ball of this talent and the information that is understood like instinct.
But this is nothing compared to the dazzling golden talent 2 next to it!
This world may have multiple talents, and it may even be possible to improve or even increase talents, 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: [One certificate, forever certificate] Any improvement obtained through practice will not decay, and any injury can be completely restored by absorbing willpower or eating.
(Abilities that need to be improved through practice and willpower, similar to the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method, which can only accelerate the recovery of injuries afterwards, and cannot solidify the ability card bug.)
Known ability 2: [Mental Immunity] Ignore any influence and attack from the mental and soul side.
Known ability 3: [Deification] Strengthen the existing abilities and talents by consuming willpower. When using the enhanced version of the ability, additional physical strength and energy will be consumed according to the strength of the ability.
