With just a bit more training, they could be decent helpers—they're much better than the average local residents.
Unfortunately, in the end, only the couple who were the superstore owners and the wheelchair man were selected.
"You damn cripple, why didn't you say you had a nosebleed?"
"I didn't know, please stop ntioning it."
The man in the wheelchair had a look of utter despair; he truly didn't realize he had developed symptoms too.
"This is a good sign, you might even regain the ability to walk. In the Abyss, the stronger you are, the easier it is to survive."
Seeing the man so pitiful, nearly bursting into tears, Tao Yu even offered a rare word of comfort, then laughed and said,
"But you're going to have to tough it out on your own, give a break."
Since the man in the wheelchair was showing symptoms, Tao Yu thought it best to let him try, as without the world's bonus the progression wasn't so rapid. If there was a problem, they'd deal with it then.
"It's truly a miracle! Is this the Abyss?"
Doctor Ren's arm had grown back significantly. Actually, others could tell he was infected too, but with so many other infected around, one more didn't make much difference.
At that mont, Doctor Ren's face was bright with excitent as he examined the mbrane.
Tao Yu also kept an eye on him, hoping that with so luck he might even be a 'Fortune Thief'.
However, it was a bit regrettable. Not all good things happen all the ti. Doctor Ren was still blocked by the mbrane.
"Useless."
Tao Yu spat out in disdain, feeling like he'd lost at least twenty thousand Yuan Force.
He himself stepped away from the barrier to feel the difference between the two places.
Compared to when he entered this world, because the [Heart Enhancent] was slightly off, this ti leaving it, Tao Yu felt an extrely noticeable awkwardness and discomfort.
"It feels like I would get 'motion sickness' if I jumped back and forth too frequently."
Tao Yu moved his hands and feet, adjusting to the changes in the world's rules.
Overall, it wasn't as bad as he initially imagined. Most of the benefits from [Demonization] were retained, and there were no reductions in strength or any suppression.
Whenever he wanted, he could still transform into his demon form.
But the Free Energy of the world that could be rapidly replenished had declined sharply, and his endurance had reverted to normal.
"No, the endurance has actually increased a bit. The transformation still enhances my healing ability, but if I were to enter the full [Demonization] mode and exert myself completely, the endurance would drop."
As Tao Yu sensed these changes, he layered his fingers with Monster Armor.
"However, just using it partially, I can still extend the endurance a bit. The value of this ability remains quite high..."
After opening the world barrier and letting the blocked people through, Tao Yu turned and said,
"Two of my pets will be coming over soon. Don't be nervous. There are many creatures like them roaming the jungle, and with my pets, we can avoid a lot of trouble."
Having been prepared with gradual managent, the arrival of Da Hei and Little Black, although startling at first, did not cause too much of a disruption.
After all, compared to the other creatures they had grown accustod to seeing, Aliens didn't seem entirely unacceptable...

"Get the food organized. With this many people, we'll need to trek for approximately five to six days. The journey will be strenuous, and those who fall behind could die—watch out for poisonous insects."
If Tao Yu rode Da Hei directly and took a straight path, he could cross the distance in under two days. However, leading such a group naturally slowed things down.
But it's all money!
And they all had the potential for [Demonization], bound to him as 'Chosen Ones'. He wasn't worried about taking a bit more ti...
...
The fully-ard twenty-four mbers of the Raven Squad, along with several of the Green Ho's fighters, managed to maintain order quite smoothly.
With machetes, they cleared away branches and undergrowth to forge a path,
Da Hei walked around the periphery, causing the ground to tremble with each step.
The rustling leaves stirred up a dense feeling in the air filled with humidity and dust.
Having Da Hei around, with the innate pheromonal suppression of an Alien Queen, ant that even Aliens from nests other than its own dared not offend it.
Even so, the presence of other Aliens lurking and observing nearby was sotis spotted by so sharp-eyed survivors.
The massive form of Da Hei constantly patrolled around the group, roaring and bellowing, driving away these Aliens.
Initially, the people were quite afraid of Da Hei's ferocious appearance and would try to keep their distance when it passed by.
But after they realized that Da Hei was protecting them and driving off other monsters, they began to see Da Hei in a different light.
"Being able to ta these creatures so successfully, these monsters are innate weapons of war!"
Doctor Ren was the first to co up with an idea similar to that of a Pioneer.
His first thought was to use them in combat.
"First, keep yourself under control. I won't be giving you a vaccine."
Tao Yu glanced at Doctor Ren, whose eyes had turned completely black, and reminded him to control his emotions.
"Sorry, sorry. I got a bit too excited."
It had to be said that Doctor Ren was indeed tough, quickly reverting to his original deanor.
At that mont, Che Xianxiu walked over from the crowd carrying the man in the wheelchair on his back.
As a special infected individual, Che Xianxiu's physical strength was more than sufficient, even without the world's enhancent he was stronger than the average person, so he carried the disabled man in the wheelchair the whole way.
On the other side, Little Black had a mat on its back and was carrying An Zhijie's adoptive father, Old Man An, with a child occasionally joining them for a break, taking turns.
