Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Chapter 129: Chapter 118: Mopping Up

"Found it; since they set up a temporary base here, I thought there should be one."

Tao Yu scavenged some remaining spoils of war and still found a hand-cranked radio box in the neighboring tent, which should be able to maintain communication with the base.

"I just knew it, although they may secretly hold that ceremony every day without us knowing what for, they wouldn't want to be at a loss of Yuan Force..."

Tao Yu briefly examined the hand-cranked radio box.

The temporary camp was established by Masu, a Heretic God Follower, and while the main purpose was still uncertain, they definitely wanted to make a profit every day.

As such, instant communication with the base was very important, as they couldn't always rely on foot.

"The frequency they are currently connected to should be their people; I don't know if they are core followers..."

After roughly figuring it out, Tao Yu began turning the knobs to tune in, adjusting to the base tower's receiving frequency, then cranked the handle while picking up the walkie-talkie and deliberately used force to affect his vocal cords to produce a deep voice,

"Calling the base, can you hear me?"

The base had two public frequencies besides the one for external communication, and there was also a search and rescue channel, which was usually silent, used for reporting incidents, and occasionally there would be information provided by caravans and Pioneers.

The main purpose was actually to prevent some emergency situations, such as discovering a zombie horde or an alien army, and Pioneers outside would occasionally use this frequency for nearby teaming and communication.

However, since it's a semi-public frequency, they wouldn't be discussing any confidential matters on it.

This was one of the more convenient ways to directly contact the base, and Tao Yu didn't have many other options.

It wasn't long after Tao Yu's inquiry that he received a feeble response,

"This is the base tower."

"Heretic God Follower discovered; please report immediately..."

Tao Yu was straightforward, and there was no immediate response from the other side. After a moment, accompanied by static noise from the walkie-talkie, another much steadier voice came through,

"Who are you? Where are you now? How did you find out?"

Starting with a rapid series of questions, Tao Yu guessed that it might be one of the Inner City Pioneers who had been recruited.

"At the end of Highway Three in the Rainforest camp; Inner City Pioneer Masu is a Heretic God Follower. He has been taken down, but unsure if any fish slipped through the net."

This was a semi-public frequency after all; who knows how many people were listening in the channel at that time? It was just that the severity of the incident Tao Yu reported meant nobody dared to interject, so Tao Yu didn't reveal his identity, and his voice also remained altered.

After a moment, the tower came back with a conversation much more soothing in tone, without any further inquiry about "who are you".

"Masu's camp, right? I know of it; I will report it to the two leaders immediately. I hope you can hold on for now, and if it's dangerous, feel free to leave."

"Not in danger for the moment; everyone here seems to be unconscious because of the ceremony."

Tao Yu said this but still stealthily slipped outside the camp after reporting.

After all, it was a semi-public frequency; who knew if any Heretic God Followers were listening?

Although he believed that those who shunned the light would not likely take risks at such times,

He still had to be wary of any die-hard lunatics poking around.

It was just better to hide and watch for a while.

What he could confirm now was that Sun Shiyu, who had taught him the legitimate Meditation Technique, was definitely alright.

It didn't take long for Tao Yu to see Sun Shiyu flying quickly towards him on a motorboat, relying on his exceptional eyesight.

As she arrived nearby and saw the gradually dispersing gray fog and the people sprawled in disarray, Sun Shiyu did not come down immediately but circled around the base.

It was then that Tao Yu began waving his hands frantically,

"Miss, over here, over here."

Upon seeing Tao Yu, Sun Shiyu's pretty face flashed a look of surprise, and she descended directly.

"Did you file the report? Did you do all this? It indeed smells of a Heretic God Follower." Explore stories at m,v l'e-NovelBin.net

Sun Shiyu wrinkled her cute nose, seemingly disgusted by the gray fog.

"It was me, yeah; I was planning to stay here for the night. I sneaked out for a bit, and when I came back, things were awry."

Tao Yu casually said.

This gray fog carried a kind of spiritual hypnotic effect, and Tao Yu had roughly gauged that someone normal who practiced the Meditation Technique and was vigilant could enter from outside without an issue, just don't stay too long.

After all, it was just a minor ceremony; it couldn't be too powerful, or else they would have just chosen the base for it.

"Well done; I haven't taught you in vain,"

Sun Shiyu's mouth curled into a smile, then glanced at the smudge on Tao Yu's face, wiping it off with her smooth finger.

"You're all ruffled; remember to put safety first next time."

The familiar fragrance wafted into his nose, causing Tao Yu to shudder.

Was she flirting with him? Damn it.

In fact, over the recent encounters, the relationship between Tao Yu and Sun Shiyu had become quite good, and there had even been some accidental touches, but this time, it all seemed intentional...

"I don't know what they were doing, but everyone passed out, and in the end, the statue was shattered, giving me a real headache."

Tao Yu said half-truthfully.

"You shattered the statue? No wonder; it seems your progress with the Meditation Technique isn't bad. Did you shoot it to pieces?"

After a moment of silence, Sun Shiyu glanced back at Tao Yu and then continued,

"You are indeed lucky; if you were too close, even with the Meditation Technique, the impact wouldn't be small, and death could not be ruled out."
