Global Game: I Have Portable Store

Chapter 265: Chapter 264: Scheming

Su Changxing always carried a mysterious confidence when it came to such speculation, perhaps because his previous successful predictions had given him that confidence.

Huang Biao showed a thoughtful expression and then said:

”If that’s really the case, then Shield Company is indeed not simple; perhaps they knew something before the apocalypse happened.”

He was also a meticulous person, noticing the key points within.

Su Changxing nodded and said:

”That’s also what I think, the Energy Net plan launched by Shield Company seems a bit rushed; they must have other clear objectives...or one could say the apocalypse was inevitable from the start, and the so-called Energy Net plan is just their means of resisting the apocalypse.”

”Inevitable?”

Huang Biao frowned, unable to understand.

Su Changxing thought for a moment and explained: ”Yes, it’s like a world reaching the end of its lifespan, destined to die; even without this zombie apocalypse, there would be other apocalypses.”

At this moment, everyone else had also followed up, totaling more than thirty people, and most of them were injured, with a portion being seriously injured.

Zhu Wenwu came over and said: ”Brother Su, should we leave now or rest here overnight... It’s quite a distance to the base, and many people are injured.”

Su Changxing didn’t give it much thought and said, ”Let’s rest for a while; we still need to prepare to leave. There are some issues at the base that need to be addressed.”

They had wiped out this Hunter base, but there were other Hunters in the area, and the defense of their base was weak, possibly leading to retaliation from Teng Beng, who might take advantage of the situation.

Moreover, their base still hid an entity from the Blood Moon.

So they had to hurry back.

Huang Biao nodded in agreement and shouted: ”Everyone rest in the next room for a while; we’ll set off before dark.”

The first-floor rooms had been tidied by the Hunters and were relatively clean. Everyone sat on chairs or leaned against walls to rest, drink water, and eat.

Chang Yi, originally a graduate from Kyoto Medical University and an intern surgeon, had no problem handling some simple wound treatments.

He, along with a few people in better status, helped bandage and treat others’ wounds.

Chang Yi came to Su Changxing and asked, ”Brother Su, do we have any more healing ointment? The previous ones you gave have been used up... With that, many people could regain combat strength by tomorrow.”

The healing ointment’s ability to heal external wounds was astonishing. As a doctor, he found it absurd, and if it weren’t the apocalypse, he would definitely analyze its components.

Su Changxing, resting on a chair by the door, turned to him and said:

”No, I’m out of those as well, I only got them by chance.”

Chang Yi hesitated and said, ”Some of the severely injured might be recovering for a long time, and there are a few whose injuries are too severe for our current medical conditions.”

Some things are brutally unavoidable, just like in war.

Zhou An’s expression was somewhat low, he opened his mouth to speak but refrained, mostly because he didn’t know what to say, just feeling a bit helpless.

Zhu Wenwu thought for a moment and asked, ”How is the situation with the Old Man? He has the physique of an Extraordinary, he shouldn’t die, right?”

Chang Yi, somewhat unsure, said, ”I’m not very familiar with the healing ability of the Extraordinary, but for now, it seems to be fine, and the probability of infection in Extraordinary’s wounds seems low.”

Su Changxing looked down at his phone, then raised his head calmly and said, ”Hmm, no problem, I have a solution. Gather everyone in this room.”

The mission reward had been settled; after triggering the mission, not one of them died, so Su Changxing completed it perfectly, earning a special talent and a high-quality mysterious item.

These two were both good things.

The mysterious item happened to be able to solve their current predicament.

[Healing Totem (Dingguan, Middle Rank): An item from the Desolate Ancient World, it can be inserted into the ground, providing a powerful healing effect to nearby allies.

Can be used three times, each lasting ten minutes, covering a 20x20 range, restoring 1+5% of lost life every ten seconds.]

Note: Using this item at night will attract unknown entities.]

Does this count as group healing?

They didn’t have anyone with healing ability, so this item was a timely gift.

”I don’t think I’ve seen Hunters with healing abilities, but there are Superpower Users with healing abilities... Could it be because of the influence of the giant hand that no healing Extraordinary can be born?”

Su Changxing speculated that it might be the case, that in this world, all Extraordinary were akin to the zombies’ line, and the characteristic of zombies is that they basically don’t heal after being injured.

Soon, the room was packed with people, making it quite crowded but also quiet, as everyone watched Su Changxing standing in the middle holding a dark green cane.

The upper end of the cane was a wooden sculpture of a person’s face painted with oil, which looked rough but intricately made, with eyes full of life, as if singing.

This was a piece of art.

At least, that’s what Su Changxing thought.

”No worries, you don’t have to keep watching me, just rest.”

Su Changxing glanced out the window at the dusk, then looked at the totem in his hand, thinking about how to insert it into the ground.

Suddenly, he forcefully pushed the totem into the hard floor, causing a loud noise, with several cracks appearing.

”Pretty solid, didn’t break.”

He watched as the totem gradually became covered in a green glow, exuding a life force that made everyone feel refreshed.

Zhou An stood by and looked at the totem, asking in puzzlement: ”Will this thing work? I don’t feel anything.”

Zhu Wenwu glanced at him, responding irritably: ”You’re not injured, of course you can’t feel it... the effect of this thing is impressive.”

At this moment, Zhu Wenwu could feel his wounds healing at a visible speed, and his previously fatigued spirit also lifted.

After a brief calm, the room became lively.

The Old Man slowly sat up from the ground, glancing at Su Changxing beside him in surprise and said:

”The effect of this thing is great, some of my injuries have already healed.”

His injuries were the most severe, so the healing effect was the best.

Su Changxing observed his injuries and replied, ”Hmm, that’s good. The Healing Totem can last for ten minutes; it should be able to let your injuries mostly recover.”

”Mostly recover?”

The Old Man thought for a moment and said, ”Leader Su, at this rate, ten minutes should be enough for me to fully recover.”

Su Changxing explained, ”At first, your severe injuries make the effect better, but later the healing effect will weaken. However, even if you’re not fully healed, it won’t be too far off.”
