Global Game: I Have Portable Store

Chapter 435: Chapter 21: Monsters Everywhere

Su Changxing seemed to understand why the Dreamer position was associated with heretic elements; it was related to the inclusivity of the job itself, which also allowed him multiple enhancements.

The changes achievable by normal things are limited, but the degree to which a Dreamer can alter things far exceeds this value.

Unexpectedly, he discovered a Dingguan Quality sniper rifle, A011 - Dawn, in one of the stores.

[A011 - Dawn (Lower Rank B): 74,000 points.]

[A011 - Dawn (Lower Rank B): A standard military weapon from a mechanical civilization, with a simple yet precise structure. The special components greatly enhance kinetic energy, reaching the level of a Tier Two Energy Weapon.

Armor-Piercing: Penetrates hard armor specifically.

Puncture: The bullet expands immediately upon impact, scattering.

Silencer: Eliminates most of the noise.]

Though a bit expensive and not highly cost-effective, it’s definitely the weapon Su Changxing needs now, capable of high-intensity long-range strikes.

A flash of light passed by.

A sniper rifle with a silver-white body, engraved with dark patterns, appeared in his hands, smaller than expected, sleek overall, more like a piece of art than a weapon.

”It’s said to be standard, but it might not be the most commonly used sniper rifle.”

Su Changxing loaded the bullets one by one, looking through the scope towards the Giant Anchor. Although obscured by black mist, he could still see a rough outline.

The moment he pulled the trigger, a large amount of white steam spewed from the rifle’s hollow, and with a dull sound, the bullet drew a black line, flew through the night sky, and disappeared into the black mist.

”Not bad.”

Su Changxing put the gun away, quite satisfied, as the power met expectations, providing a basic understanding of this second-level energy weapon.

This gun’s power alone was not better than a revolver, only that the range was extremely far, with virtually no drop-off when shooting from here to the Giant Anchor.

This was without the enhancement of Concentrating and Gunfire Judgment, but it was a pity that the sniper rifle couldn’t enjoy the ”Pistol Enthusiast” bonus.

Afterward, Su Changxing exchanged six enhancements for Yi Yaqi and four enhancements for Huang Keying.

Zhou An spent all his savings to buy Yi Yaqi a Book of Meditation.

[Book of Meditation (Precious): Basic meditation technique from the World of Object Painting Magic. Practicing this method increases the possibility of opening a path, but career direction will be limited.]

Their relationship was better than it seemed.

Yi Yaqi sat on the sofa, exploring the so-called meditation technique, eyes wide as if discovering something amazing.

Zhou An curiously asked, ”What’s up?”

Yi Yaqi extended her left hand, and a faint spot of light appeared at her fingertip: ”Look at this.”

”What is this?”

Zhou An asked.

Yi Yaqi opened her hand, saying, ”Hmm, I’m not sure either.”

”Bang~”

Zhou An suddenly jumped from the sofa and looked out the window, shouting, ”What’s that?”

Others were also startled.

Something that looked like a mummy was peering in from outside the window, without any noise or breath.

”Whoosh~”

Zhou An flicked a Flying Saber, pinning it to the railing.

The mummy struggled continuously, silently, like a 3D projection playing there.

When he approached, he found the mummy had vanished without a trace, leaving only a hole thrown out from within, with quite a bit of soil accumulated around it.

”Did it come from underground?”

He cautiously approached the large hole on the ground with the Broken Sword in hand.

At this moment, Su Changxing noticed the commotion and jumped down from the second floor: ”What happened?”

Zhou An gestured to the Flying Saber on the railing and said, ”A monster that looked like a mummy appeared there just now, but then suddenly disappeared.”

”Thud, thud, thud~”

Heavy footsteps came from the street outside.

A tall streetlamp with legs came trudging from the other side of the street, seemingly without a clear purpose as it walked along the street.

”It’s this thing again.”

Su Changxing drew his gun again and shot through the streetlamp’s bulb.

The streetlamp dispersed into a cloud of black mist once more and quickly disappeared, leaving a bare lamppost falling to the ground.

”It vanished?”

Zhou An said in surprise.

Su Changxing glanced at the kill notification on his phone and the over-thousand points and said:

”No, it’s already dead; that monster was formed by the lamp post of that streetlamp.”

They returned to the balcony and found a bone segment and some fragmented bone debris left, with fresh soil residues on them.

Zhu Wen examined for a moment and deduced, ”These bones climbed out from underground?”

It sounded absurd, but the evidence before them made it a fact.

Su Changxing frowned slightly and said, ”It should be so; keep your alertness up. We never know what might happen.”

The internet was still intermittently accessible, and they could refresh information to know similar monsters appeared worldwide, especially after dusk.

Their aggression wasn’t too strong, but it was potentially lethal.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly thickened. Su Changxing’s expression did not change; instead, he felt more at ease, thinking this might not be a bad thing.

These monsters were not strong enough to cause destruction; on the contrary, they could stimulate the emergence of more extraordinaries, which was a relatively ideal situation.

Su Changxing rested upstairs for a bit, then received a message from Lin Xiuyu on his phone, ”I’m coming over soon.”

This phone wasn’t his; Leng Ying had given it to him, likely a satellite phone with relatively good signal.

Soon after.

Lin Xiuyu came from the other end of the street, carrying a gun and leading more than ten people, among them some extraordinaries.

Su Changxing exited the house to meet them, smiling, ”Hmm, you actually survived; incredible indeed.”

Lin Xiuyu was in a dire situation at the time, on the brink of death, and yet, though not an extraordinary now, his eyes were much clearer and sharper.

Lin Xiuyu eyed him, smiling meaningfully, and said:

”When the energy station exploded, I knew I couldn’t die, but your survival was indeed unexpected.”

”Hmm, I don’t mean it that way, just any calculation would have resulted in your death at the time... My ability must have had an issue.”

Su Changxing chuckled lightly, ”If you had calculated that I’d survive, the problem would be even worse.”

Despite Lin Xiuyu’s strong superpower, he was merely mortal, and there were too many external factors around Su Changxing: discount store, heretic elements, and the head.

Lin Xiuyu naturally entered the house first, seated on the sofa, said solemnly:

”It seems the people from the Black Fog World have left. The military just sent word; they haven’t been seen for a while.”
