Global Game: I Have Portable Store

Crack~

Su Changxing placed the black crystal on the windowsill and knocked on it. There was no reaction, just like an ordinary stone, but much harder. At least with his power, it was difficult to easily damage it.

”Do I really have to eat it?”

”Or is there a prerequisite, must it be a human?”

Su Changxing vaguely felt that it contained special energy, pondering if this required Doomsday Game’s permission to be used, and it might have been created by the game.

For these players, he was just like an NPC in this world. It was reasonable that NPCs couldn’t use players’ items, just like how these zombies couldn’t see the Mysterious Shop.

While he was still pondering, the ground shook again, causing the surrounding houses to sway as if an earthquake had occurred.

This commotion disturbed all the zombies on the street, causing them to become agitated and rush in the same direction.

There was a terrifying creature beneath the city, possibly not just one, causing such a disturbance.

Su Changxing felt that the creature seemed to be trapped under the city, trying its best to crawl out, which was why there were Extraordinary individuals trying to stop it.

It seemed that the efforts to stop it weren’t very successful, as the creature began to stir again.

However, these weren’t his concerns, as a zombie fully adapted to this world, capable of living anywhere. The only worries were the humans in the settlements.

Su Changxing put the second Extraordinary Crystal, scavenged from those six people, into his mouth. As he consumed more Extraordinary Crystals, the time to digest each one was getting longer.

In turn, his energy conversion rate for each Extraordinary Crystal was also increasing.

He slung the backpack over his shoulder, picked up the Silver-White Machete, and went downstairs again, ready to continue hunting Extraordinary Zombies. Zombies didn’t need rest and were theoretically the best workers, endlessly squeezed for value, but this world was no longer the same.

Strolling on the street, he appeared leisurely as if these zombies were all living people, it might have been a bustling scene.

Su Changxing wandered the streets, suddenly feeling a bit confused, like all the other ordinary zombies.

His conscious soul and body were one, and also self-aware, possessing an independent self, capable of independent thought.

Su Changxing’s spirit was itself composed of countless selves forming a gigantic crown, surrounding and building his entire Extraordinary System, like a shining pyramid.

He had not found an Extraordinary Zombie, and unwittingly returned to the previous place. His skin tingled due to the dense energy.

He knew he was in a different area ahead and had unconsciously walked over, like an instinct driving him to move toward a more comfortable place.

Su Changxing was suddenly startled, sensing danger. The ground was scattered with black string-like substances, layered like a cocoon. Stepping on it felt soft and sank down, the gaps in his toes filling with soft threads.

A long-necked ”woman” hung upside down from a tree, quietly observing him. Her eyes emitted a ghostly green light, akin to a spider’s eyes. Her neck was over a meter long, with bony spikes protruding from her skin, fusing with it to form white keratin.

Her jet-black, beautiful long hair fell from the air, her face was also clear and beautiful, lips bright red as if heavily made up, indeed a gorgeous woman.

Su Changxing silently marveled, estimating this was likely a human mutated monster, and there was no coincidence in his unconscious arrival, but rather influence.

Such a spirit seemed like a giant web guiding surrounding creatures to come here.

Many humans, or Extraordinary Zombies, were wrapped in threads and hung upside down under the lush, sturdy tree, drooling unconsciously. Still alive, but occasionally, black little spiders poked out of their mouths and retreated back.

”Seems you’re picky, not interested in ordinary zombies.”

Su Changxing laughed, gathering strength in his hands. He estimated this creature to have Tier Eight power; otherwise, affecting him mentally would be unlikely.

The ”woman” seemed to understand Su Changxing’s words, displaying a gentle smile and softly said, ”Love you.”

It indeed seemed abstract. Humans couldn’t understand his speech, but this monster could comprehend it well.

Su Changxing strengthened the mental link between his body and clone, which for his clone was an additional ability, greatly resisting external mental influence.

However, he was already within this black thread range, escaping wouldn’t be easy.

Instead of thinking about how to flee, it’s better to try and eliminate this monster.

He dashed straight toward the woman, the machete in his hand turning into a streak of silver light, severing the three black threads spewed from her mouth.

The distance between them was close, only a few steps away, and he easily charged right before the woman.

All of this was unexpected.

The ”woman” didn’t expect this ordinary zombie to suddenly awaken, even more surprised by Su Changxing’s explosive power, capable of cutting her black threads.

In combat, achieving unexpected actions often grants an advantage.

Su Changxing swung his blade horizontally, striking the woman’s long neck, producing a crisp sound, slicing halfway through. Then followed with another swing, completely severing the woman’s neck.

No blood flowed out, and it wasn’t as solid as imagined, more like a long wooden stick.

No good!

Su Changxing stepped back, realizing that this monster was merely using the human form as a disguise, and severing its neck wouldn’t deliver a fatal blow like it would to a zombie.

Numerous black threads gushed from the severed neck of the monster, shooting toward him. He swung his blade, cutting some, but other threads deftly pierced through his chest.

Splurt~

The sound of flesh splattering echoed, as a shadow charged from another direction, crashing into the giant tree, creating a massive gash, from which a torrent of green liquid spewed.

The tree was the true body of the monster!

Su Changxing was somewhat surprised to see the thing that ran up—it was the ”big brother” he had encountered before, who was madly slicing the tree’s bark with claw-like hands, letting out a manic howl.

With the sudden intervention of the Corpse Ghost, the monster’s attention shifted.

Su Changxing slashed the black threads piercing his chest, then realized the woman’s body wasn’t hanging from the tree but was growing from it like fruit.

He leaped high, cutting the branch with the woman’s body, leaving a smooth cut, as the branch together with her body fell to the ground.

The black threads that had been flailing in the air suddenly froze, then turned toward Su Changxing, shooting again, as though suddenly recognizing his threat exceeded that of the Corpse Ghost.

Su Changxing ignored the incoming black threads, swung his blade at another branch. This monster controlled the black threads using the branches; removing most of the branches would greatly diminish its combat ability.

Another branch was severed, some black threads fell from the air, as if losing the force supporting them.

The tree was huge and broad, requiring seven or eight people to encircle it. ”Big brother” furiously clawed the trunk, creating a large hole, as more blood kept oozing, though he too was in severe condition, pierced by seven or eight black threads, with dozens of wounds across his body, bleeding profusely.

Su Changxing cut the third branch, while sidestepping to dodge the incoming black threads, simultaneously slicing at the fourth branch.

At this point, they completely gained the upper hand.

With three branches severed by Su Changxing, the monster’s control over the black threads significantly weakened.

Su Changxing was pierced in the chest again by the black threads, but cut down the fourth branch, causing the tree to become extremely unstable.

Bang~

”Big brother” completely gouged through the trunk, causing the tree to topple to the ground, as he let out a threatening roar: ”Aah!”

Su Changxing sensed the monster’s life force rapidly depleting, akin to a zombie having its head shattered, nearing death.

Nonetheless, he remained vigilant, casting a wary glance at ”big brother.”

Though the other saved him, it might not be for rescue; they could become enemies in an instant and engage in combat.

”Haha~”

”Sizzle.”

······

After some not particularly complex communication, Su Changxing learned that ”big brother” indeed rushed over to save him, completely unexpected.

Who would have thought to be rescued by a monster?

Su Changxing crouched and split open the tree, extracting a smooth, emerald-green Extraordinary Crystal. There was a noticeable difference between Tier Nine and Tier Eight Extraordinary Crystals; one was angular while the other approached spherical, their size varying with the specific creature.

”I need this thing, can I have it?” Su Changxing asked ”big brother.”

”Haha~” the Corpse Ghost replied with a soft growl.

Su Changxing didn’t fully understand its meaning but assumed it agreed, placing it into his backpack.

”Haha?”

”Don’t worry, this thing is mine, I’ll compensate you later. You’re my big brother; you should take care of your little brother.” He rambled, without knowing if the Corpse Ghost could comprehend his words.

”Haha.”

”That’s right.”

Su Changxing examined the Corpse Ghost thoughtfully, deducing it evolved from a zombie, but transcended the zombie category, still belonging to the zombie-like type—not lacking intelligence, probably comparable to a ten-year-old human child.

Curious, he wondered why this Corpse Ghost saved him; could it be because of the ”big brother” call?

Unlikely to be so simple.

As the tree fell, numerous small spiders crawled from corpses, escaping in all directions, while ”big brother” eagerly pursued them, stuffing them into his mouth one by one.
