Global Game: I Have Portable Store

Hearing this, Xu Jie froze on the spot, her expression showing a bit of daze, ”If that’s the case, then aren’t we destined for doom?”

Previously, she naturally believed that as long as the Divine Creature was taken down, the fate of being polluted could be avoided. Now it seemed not to be the case.

Yi Xiaodong nodded and then shook his head, ”Not entirely. According to the analysis, it’s very likely that District Thirteen killed that Divine Creature, which caused the large-scale horrific pollution.”

Hearing this, Xu Jie looked enlightened, ”So, does that mean as long as we avoid killing this Divine Creature, or imprison it, we can avoid large-scale pollution of this area?”

Yi Xiaodong nodded, ”In theory, that’s the case, so instead we must not actively hunt down that Divine Creature, even if it’s not particularly strong.”

”We should actually be grateful that He Yu did not succeed, otherwise it might have caused a large-scale horrific pollution, with no way to salvage anything.”

It was precisely because a Divine Creature appeared here that they received more detailed information about Divine Creatures from headquarters.

The gathering place entered Level One combat readiness, with dense patrols on the streets, and hundreds of people guarding the exterior defenses day and night to prevent a sudden attack of the Undead Tide.

Under the streetlights at the exits, hung several near-dead zombies, which hadn’t shown any activity before, but one of them slowly opened its eyes into a slit, silently observing the surroundings, its gaze revealing a gleam of spirituality.

”So tense? Is it because some powerful Extraordinary Creature is going to attack the gathering place?”

Su Changxing controlled the zombie’s vision, looking around and sensing something amiss.

He sensed the presence of zombies in this base as well, so he tried to control them and replace senses, to see if he could gather any intelligence, whether it be about the Black Crystal, these humans, or the Doomsday Game.

The zombie he controlled that was hung up was in a terrible state, with most of its bones almost broken, its tongue and throat perforated unable to utter any sound, yet fortunately, its eyes hadn’t been gouged out, still allowing it to observe its surroundings.

”With quite complete facilities, such a gathering place is hard to build overnight... is that a cemetery?”

Su Changxing observed the situation in the gathering place, constantly shifting perspectives.

The gathering place seemed to have a habit of hanging up zombies, they could be seen hung all over the place, allowing him to observe the entire gathering place by controlling different zombies.

Most of these zombies were hung at the edges of the gathering place, making it rather difficult to glean useful information.

Su Changxing wasn’t in a hurry, constantly changing perspectives, he could always gather some intelligence, like the operation of the gathering place, daily food, and casual conversations by the streetlights.

”Did something happen?” asked a young man wearing a grey baseball cap, looking bewildered, unclear about what really happened, having just returned to the gathering place only to immediately enter combat readiness, without resting he was pulled out to stand guard, ”I haven’t slept for days, this is inhumane.”

”There’s an Undead Tide, supposedly a tens-of-thousands-strong Undead Tide near the gathering place,” said a companion in a brown jacket, carrying a firefighting axe, while handing over a cigarette, ”Have a smoke to wake up.”

”Tens of thousands of zombies? Really?” He showed a shocked expression, imagining that scene made him shudder, lighting the cigarette with trembling hands, inhaling deeply to calm his inner unease, ”How can there be so many zombies, why didn’t we notice before.”

The companion in the brown jacket explained, ”The Undead Tide seems to be coming from the forbidden area, seems related to the previous weird events in the gathering place, though I’m not sure about the specifics.”

”Ugh~ I hope those zombies don’t come looking for trouble, go to other gathering places instead.”

”But we seem to be the closest.”

”Well, alright then.”

······

Zombies?

Su Changxing fell silent momentarily, then realized it seemed to be because he brought the Undead Tide into this area, which stimulated the gathering place.

”But if it’s just the Undead Tide, it shouldn’t make a gathering place so tense, right?” He was puzzled, finding the gathering place’s reaction overboard, especially since this gathering place had many Extraordinary, it should absolutely have the capability to fight even against a large-scale Undead Tide.

Individual zombies are almost the weakest combat force in this world, only when in large numbers do they form formidable fighting strength, because zombies are unafraid of death and have strong life force.

Nonetheless.

From Su Changxing’s perspective, this gathering place should have no problem blocking his Undead Tide, and it might not even suffer much damage.

This place had a lot of Extraordinary, solid defensive installations, capable of effectively resisting the Undead Tide, probably when the gathering place was initially established, they had already considered the problem of the Undead Tide, with corresponding designs in place, even just the exits of the gathering place had over a dozen dense barbed wires.

Opening his eyes.

Outside the window, the streets were filled with dense zombies standing blankly, seemingly waiting for something.
