Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely-Chapter 708
Chapter 708: 640 Chapter 708: 640 The Aphis family colluded with the followers of the Evil God and the Starshine family, committing violence in the State Capital!
The explosive news suddenly swept across the entire State Capital, and because it involved the Starshine family’s affairs, it even began to spread to the surrounding cities.
It truly shocked the entire State Capital’s onlookers, leaving many unable to react.
The Aphis family was the Bai Family’s little brother!
Who would have thought they would play such a big game this time?
“The Starshine family has extended its reach to the State Capital?”
“Despicable foreigners!”
“Boycott Starshine Company!”
“Boycott Starshine Company!”
“…”
The information was already sensational, and with some opportunistic fueling of the flames, the controversy pointed directly at the Starshine Company, heaping snow on top of frost for the already struggling company in the State Capital.
Although the main target was the Xing Family, the Suns, as important members of the Starshine Company, were also deeply affected.
...
Tao Yu even received cross-boundary communication specifically to remind him of this fact and to be careful when “returning.”
However, this reminder also carried a hint of schadenfreude.
Even the Suns, who were slightly affected, were beginning to have a headache.
As the primary target, the Starshine family, of course, was in utter disarray, immediately withdrawing from the State Capital and closing down their offices!
If the Starshine family had only engaged in covert financial dealings with the Aphis family, it would have been forgivable, but alas, the Aphis family patriarch ended up using the Evil God’s power without discrimination.
Even though most insiders knew that it was probably just a use of some Evil God power for practical purposes, rather than a full-fledged fall from grace,
opposing the Evil God was undoubtedly the politically correct stance, and once the connection was made here, it immediately made things difficult for the Starshine family.
Also, taking advantage of the situation, the clandestine Starry Sky Ball that the Starshine family had been working on was exposed.
Even if this device might have a low output and many restrictions,
its ability to create an effect akin to a Duel Space during Catastrophe Level battles was too potent a stealth ability!
The Assassin’s League had many issues on their plate, all because that so-called ‘Star Killer’ was suspected of having spatial abilities.
After the Starshine family incident, Tao Yu used Teng Lianghong’s identity to run to the mission hall and release a public message, stating that many of the deaths were falsely pinned on the Assassin’s League, hoping that the Starshine family would dare to admit responsibility.
Now, as one of the three giants of the Assassin’s League, with Red Rose as his own person, making such arrangements was completely reasonable.
Moreover, these accusations used to be placed on ‘Star Killer,’ which undoubtedly filled him with some dissatisfaction…
“Wh-What kind of Life Force is this…
Umm~, do I really need to input it this way?
It feels so strange…”

“Don’t rush, it’ll be fine soon.
Don’t you feel better, more comfortable?”
“I cannot distinguish the reason…”
Tao Yu had repelled the attack from the Aphis family elder and remained unpolluted by the Evil God’s corruption, naturally increasing the Long family’s investment in him.
And Tao Yu also made a slight sacrifice, helping Lady Long with some healing.
Since the Life Energy gap for healing Catastrophe Level injuries was great, Tao Yu couldn’t give too much at once, so he found a peculiar method to complete the transfers repeatedly.
Now that his Talent had undergone Deification, of course, he could relax a bit and enjoy the additional benefits.
And he really had to say, it was excellent!
He even wanted to try playing with Time Stop, but finding the cost too high, he ultimately decided against it.
After all that effort, he was no match for some erotica protagonists, which indeed made Tao Yu sigh.
Happy days are always fleeting, and just when Tao Yu was considering making a move, the wealthy young woman sent over some news.
It seemed there was a bit of a problem in the world of magic rings—the Burning Legion was up to something.
The issue involved the Burning Legion, so Tao Yu didn’t dare to take it lightly and decided to go back to find out more.
“After dealing with the Burning Legion and finishing up with the things collected here, I’ll teleport to Tianlong State to check it out.
Catastrophe level transmission fees are pretty expensive…”
Tao Yu also had a plan laid out for what came next.
The surveillance of the teleportation device was a measure set up by the Pioneers—it could be circumvented using the Pioneers’ own methods.
However, the ability of teleportation itself relied on the World Will, so there was no fooling it—a penny for a penny’s worth.
When Sun Guanghui and the others came over from the old development area, it cost at least ten million per person, and even though the development zone in Tianlong State was also randomly placed, it was almost certain to be more expensive.
Although the old and new development zones were distant, they were still within the same Flame of Civilization coverage, so the difficulty of coming from other places was relatively higher…
With these prices, Tao Yu couldn’t afford to travel back and forth casually, so before going, he definitely wanted to make the most value out of whatever could be obtained from the new development zone.
Even without this issue, he had actually planned to make a trip…
…
As the scene before his eyes changed, Tao Yu once again found himself in the wealthy young woman’s room, the familiar fragrance filling his nostrils.
Currently, in the new development zone, no outsider knew he had returned to the current world for a while; the Banisher Spirit had taken the Alien Dragon out for hunting, and theoretically, this was his own trail.
“Sister-in-law~ you’re back~”
With no wealthy young woman around, Sun Shiqing rushed over with a giggling smile and hung onto Tao Yu.
“Come, let me check if you’ve grown taller.”
Tao Yu also laughed wickedly, tickling Sun Shiqing till she couldn’t stop rolling around.
“What’s the situation with the Burning Legion?”
“Oh, it’s the resistance organization over there.
Someone sneaked over, which initially caused a misidentification and conflict with the Middle-earth Allied Forces, but eventually, it was resolved…”
Sun Shiqing spoke nonchalantly about the recent developments.
Before, there were several powerful members of the Burning Legion guarding a few rifts.
Those guarding were elite World Breakers!
It seemed, considering the number of World Breakers within this legion, they shouldn’t be too many, and the seven rifts each had various creatures guarding them.
Magicians, Hellfire, Hellhounds were all present.
However, Gandalf and others would occasionally check the rifts and, if given the chance, might strike suddenly.
The oil drilling platform previously guarded by a few magicians had already been compromised by Tao Yu, and later Gandalf used a magic wand to bash two more, making that platform a weak point.
Eventually, a self-proclaimed ‘Sea King’ Superhero successfully used his underwater abilities to slip through.
“‘Sea King’?”
Tao Yu mulled over Sun Shiqing’s brief overview and, from her description of abilities and appearance, it sounded a bit like the Sea King from DC comics.
But if it were DC, wouldn’t it be overkill for this relatively small-scale Burning Legion to be in this state?
“He claims he’s a member of ‘The Seven,’ an organization protecting that world, belonging to a company called Vought, currently struggling against the invasion of darkness in that world.”
As Sun Shiqing reached this point, Tao Yu immediately realized what it was!
It was another superhero-centric American TV series.
‘The Boys’!
Homelander?
“Wait a minute, I remember that they have drug-induced superpowers over there…
another world with quick-fix abilities…”
Even if these superpowers had their limits and uncertainties, at least in the Abyss, they would still hold some value…
