Chapter 101: 91: The Land of Raising Corpses
"That's a good idea. Next time we come, we'll bring a registration terminal to facilitate information exchange with the real world. You can set up a company then. Given the current state of the new Development Zone, we will temporarily waive taxes and provide corresponding task rewards and points."
Sun Shiqing readily agreed to Tao Yu's offer to help.
The new settlement area is in dire need of everything!
It all depends on the Pioneers transporting materials back and forth, but the intervals between trips and the volumes transported are too slow.
It definitely makes more sense to take advantage of the local resources in Las Vegas.
"You're right, Master Sun. I'll register a transportation company with Brother Tao when the time comes."
With his towering height of 2.3 meters, Panda should have seemed like a little Titan in front of Sun Shiqing, but at that moment, he was doing his best to squat down, showing considerable humility.
Tao Yu couldn't help but give Panda a sideways glance, recalling how arrogant the guy had seemed when he first came to block the road.
The contrast was indeed quite stark.
And judging by Sun Shiqing's demeanor, she seemed used to this kind of behavior.
"Alright, you can go now. I need to discuss something with him," Sun Shiqing dismissed Panda with a casual wave, then turned to Tao Yu, raising her attractive willow-shaped eyebrows with a smile,
"Have you started meditation?"
"Not yet, I'm a bit slow on the uptake and could use some guidance," Tao Yu replied without hesitation. "It's my Dynamic Vision that stands out with my bright eyes."
"Ha, you've got some nerve. Come on then, after discussing it with my sister, we've decided to take care of the problem today. You'll come with us."
"Okay."
Tao Yu didn't make any demands and appeared quite obliging.
"Don't worry, you'll be rewarded based on the situation when the time comes."
"I'm never worried about that."
Tao Yu puffed out his chest with confidence.
Though his bravado was partly for show, considering the generosity of the Sun siblings, he truly wasn't worried.
Whether it was Yuan Force or skills, he wouldn't turn any down!
So, Tao Yu followed Sun Shiqing to their residence. Meanwhile, Sun Shiyu had already changed into her tight-fitting combat suit and was tinkering with a hoverbike, seemingly making some adjustments.
When she saw them return, she glanced over at Tao Yu and asked the same question,
"Have you started?"
Visit us at m-vlem,pyr
"No, it's likely his innate talent that makes his eyes look so bright," Tao Yu didn't answer, but Sun Shiqing offered an explanation.
"Really, I've put so much effort into it, striving hard," Sun Shiyu seemed a bit dissatisfied but didn't say much more before hopping onto her hoverbike.
Tao Yu eyed Sun Shiyu's curves as she rode the bike, contemplating how nice it would feel to have her take him on the ride.
Of course, he wouldn't dare to voice any inappropriate remarks at that moment. Following a shoulder pat from Sun Shiqing, he joined her at her bike, watching as Sun Shiyu took off into the sky on her hoverbike.
"Feeling a bit regretful, huh?" Sun Shiqing teased Tao Yu with a beautiful smile, a playful glint in her eyes.
"Cough, Miss Sun is just joking," Tao Yu quipped.
"Seriously though, if you were MAX level, you could give it a try. But don't blame me if you end up breaking your legs," Sun Shiqing shrugged nonchalantly, hopped onto her bike, and Tao Yu swiftly followed, wrapping his arms around her waist. Then, sneaking close to her ear, he quietly asked,
"What does your sister like?"
"You'd have to excel in at least one area over her. I think long-distance sniping is a good skill to learn, so pick up more skills related to that," Sun Shiqing suggested thoughtfully.
Tao Yu considered her words seriously.
Perhaps this was just the young master's way of baiting him, trying to win over someone of his pure and high talent, but it was indeed worth a try.
"Buckle up and sit tight," Sun Shiqing instructed.
As Tao Yu fastened his safety belt, the hoverbike immediately soared into the sky. The thrust force was such that Tao Yu had to tighten his grip to stay stable.
Looking at Sun Shiqing's back ahead of him, Tao Yu actually breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, it was just her back he was facing.
Actually, this kid is really good-looking, it's easy to be reminded of his sister when staring at his face.
Then, Tao Yu remembered a topic from the internet before, if you had to sleep with Nan Tong, would you choose to face him or turn your back?
Yikes~
After shaking off some goosebump-inducing images, Tao Yu began to look down at the scenery below while flying through the air.
The only sound was the strong wind blowing past his ears, but the hoverbike itself was incredibly quiet, more like some metaphysical anti-gravity.
Although Tao Yu had taken planes before and seen many aerial videos and images, the visual experience of directly flying through the sky on a motorbike was completely different.
This was much more thrilling.
"No wonder wingsuit flying is popular despite the danger, it really is exciting."
Tao Yu enjoyed the feeling of the wind buffeting against him.
Unfortunately, these hoverbikes looked very expensive at first glance...
"We're almost there, where do you think the core location is?"
Sun Shiqing slowed down and floated next to Sun Shiyu, who had already stopped, and then addressed that question to Tao Yu.
By this time, they had already reached the sky above Las Vegas.
From this aerial perspective, the distribution of the landmarks was even clearer.
Tao Yu, with one hand around Sun Shiqing's waist to stabilize himself, peered around to gauge the location, then pointed to a spot and said,
"Unless there's a surprise, it should be in that park. Under the influence of the landmarks, it has gathered all the city's death energy, making it an excellent place for raising zombies."
"Good, let's head over."
"Hold on a second."
Tao Yu held them both up and looked up at the sunlight, saying,
"Let's wait and make our move at the peak of noon when the sunlight is at its strongest; even if there is something difficult to handle, it'll be somewhat restrained."
Tao Yu's own zombies, with the enhancement of Deification, had already lost this weakness, but the zombies made through the conventional approach, at least with Corpse Refining Art, couldn't avoid it.
Although the Suns' siblings were indeed very strong, caution was paramount in the Abyss.
"Alright."
It was clear that the Sun siblings were not arrogant; they were cautious in their actions regarding the fragments, and since Tao Yu, the skill owner, had suggested it, they were willing to listen.
"By the way, if there's a chance to resolve the trouble, I don't know if I could make use of this area, consider it as my reward."
Tao Yu took the opportunity to state his request.
"You're welcome to use it; we won't knock down those landmarks for the time being, just let us know when you're done."
Sun Shiyu seemed very nonchalant, the siblings didn't care much about side matters.
"If you really take care of a major threat, when we go back, we'll give a heads up to Myriad Streams Dojo, and you can go ahead and learn the Breathing Technique as well."
Upon hearing this, Tao Yu felt the power of a rich woman once again.
"But you need to pay attention; your resources are limited, and the characteristics of your talent are very clear. It's best to focus your talent as the core of your capabilities and avoid wasting too much on other areas, so as not to suffer more loss than gain."
Sun Shiyu even gave Tao Yu a reminder afterward.
The reason she had offered Meditation Technique as an option was that she felt this skill was more compatible with Dynamic Vision.
Myriad Streams Five Forms, and even the matching set of Breathing Technique, are all related to the physical body.
Non-physical talents consume a lot when practiced...
"Cough, I actually think so too, but having a healthy body that doesn't hold you back, I feel, is also very important."
Tao Yu said, bullshitting with his eyes wide open.
"If you get a chance, trade for a better gun. Your actual limit is set by your weapon; you don't even think to ask for it..."
Seeing Tao Yu like this, Sun Shiyu seemed a bit helplessly shook her head.
But her suggestion did not seem problematic to Tao Yu at all.
Even now, his most convenient daily ability was actually using guns; close combat was for burst use, to settle things in one fell swoop.
The effect of Warlord's Sidearm was actually quite good, but with the siblings' channels, he could probably trade for something with more power.
However, due to the Deification of his skills, Tao Yu's main resources were still invested in himself, and for items, he depended on extra rewards and casual looting...
