Chapter 443: Chapter 29: Pathways

Su Changxing took a black coin out of his pocket and said, ”This might be a new way of communication if we can figure out how to stably create mysterious items.”

[Talking Coin (Lower Rank of Dingguan): Coins can connect with each other, functioning like walkie-talkies, effective within a hundred kilometer range.]

This black coin is something he found in the Doomsday Shop, and there aren’t many of them, probably just enough for their group to use.

Moreover, the price is exceptionally expensive, each coin costs 2,500 points, and even though Su Changxing is rich in points, he only bought them after much consideration.

If they can understand its principles, then they might be able to create them, as the Extraordinary Domain also possesses inherent laws.

This is not much different from science; after all, it’s just another form of science with a completely different underlying framework.

Su Changxing paused and said, ”But it’s very difficult, they’re probably not all Extraordinary...”

”Why?” Lin Xiuyu asked back.

Su Changxing glanced at him and said, ”It’s hard for those who aren’t Extraordinary to sense the laws within, ordinary people are like looking at flowers in the fog, indistinct and obscure.”

”... Is that so? So you mean those scientists need to become Extraordinary? That seems extremely difficult,” Lin Xiuyu said to himself.

Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, ”Not necessarily, it’s not only killing and despair that can stimulate someone to become Extraordinary, it’s just the simplest, most brutal, and efficient way.”

”The obsession with slaughter, the desire for survival, the pursuit of knowledge, the exploration of the unknown... on the basis of these emotions reaching the extremity, causing the spirit and body to resonate and elevate, is to open the path to the Extraordinary, just that there seems to be something else involved...”

He explained his current understanding of Extraordinary, but felt something was missing, leaving an inconspicuous gap in a seemingly complete logical circle.

Lin Xiuyu was taken aback, incredulously saying, ”Hmm, you already have such a deep understanding of the Extraordinary? That’s really scary, but I saw there are job exchanges in the shop, doesn’t this mean ordinary people can directly exchange for jobs to become Extraordinary in the future.”

”If we speculate based on the current situation, that seems to be the case.” Su Changxing affirmed.

”Master! We’re ready.”

Zhu Xin Xue came down from above, carrying quite a few weapons, a rifle, a slender curved blade, and several hand grenades.

Su Changxing saw and couldn’t help but say, ”Isn’t that a bit excessive?”

Zhu Xin Xue took a look at herself and said, ”It shouldn’t be, I see everyone else is like this.”

At this moment, Zhou An came in from outside, dressed in a succinct combat suit, shouting, ”Hey, you two, let’s set out, are you ready?”

Zhu Wenwu took a deep breath, came down from upstairs, revealing a smile, and responded, ”Coming!”

He thought of himself as a cowardly person, unable to fight such monstrosities, but influenced by those around him and his sister, he joined the fight.

He also realized he had died a sacrificial death in that Doomsday World, knowing he was headed to death, yet still followed Su Changxing.

It’s a complex feeling, knowing you’ve died once, but still need to continue on.

Su Changxing waved his hand, signaling them to come over.

”Brother Su, what’s the matter?”

Zhou An asked with wide eyes.

Su Changxing pondered for a moment and said, ”I need to leave for a while, during this time I need you to manage the situation in Team 17, try to be careful.”

Lin Xiuyu looked helplessly and said, ”Why do I feel like you’re always being an absent leader, just like our boss.”

Su Changxing coughed and said, ”Isn’t it because you’re too capable.”

”Is that supposed to be a compliment?”

”Of course it is.” Su Changxing nodded confidently.

Zhu Xin Xue’s eyes twinkled as she smiled, ”Oh, Master, are you going to find Sister Shen Xuan?”

Su Changxing patted her head and said, ”Yes, she’s in the neighboring West Bridge City; that city lost communication previously, I’ll go check the situation over there.”

Zhou An continued, ”Brother Su, I’ll go with you.”

Su Changxing shook his head and said, ”The first thing you need to do now is step into Tier Eight, and you’re a team leader, you can’t leave arbitrarily.”

”You’re still the group leader...”

Zhou An muttered softly.

Su Changxing raised an eyebrow and said, ”Hmm? What?”

”Haha, nothing, I said take care of yourself.” Zhou An laughed.

Then, Su Changxing transferred over a hundred thousand points to Zhou An and Lin Xiuyu, as points to summon the Doomsday Shop.

Su Changxing crossed the city, reaching the outskirts, where several traffic accidents had blocked the road, some vehicles burning to a charred black.

There were also several Giant Anchors fallen nearby, but not many, and the black fog was not very obvious.

”Young man, there’re many monsters outside, yet you’re heading out.”

An uncle wearing a thick cotton jacket, holding a machete, accompanied by his wife and daughter, came face to face and reminded Su Changxing, seeing him headed out.

Su Changxing looked at the little girl standing behind him, curiously asking, ”Since there are many monsters, how did you get here? It seems you’re from a nearby town.”

The uncle showed a sly smile and said, ”Those monsters aren’t very aggressive either, we dared to sneak past them and came here without much trouble, although it’s a pity for those who stayed in town. If they had followed me, they’d have made it.”

As he spoke, a proud expression appeared on his face, as if he had accomplished something monumental.

Su Changxing echoed, ”Then, uncle, you’re quite impressive.”

”Indeed.”

The uncle chuckled and added, ”What’s the situation in the city now? I heard gunfire before, so there should be troops stationed.”

Su Changxing nodded and advised, ”It’s relatively okay, the closer you get to the city center, the safer it is, but keep away from those Giant Anchors.”

The lady next to him exhaled and said, ”That’s good, I was worried the situation would be worse when we arrived.”

After saying this, Su Changxing continued to walk along the highway.

The uncle turned around and shouted, ”Why are you, young man, still heading out? It’s suicidal, don’t you know?”

Faced with such comments, Su Changxing could only wave and shout, ”I have some important matters, you go on in, no need to worry about me.”

”I’ve heard young people nowadays like to seek thrills.”

”But this isn’t seeking thrills, it’s courting death.”

”We can’t bother about others, don’t meddle too much either.”

”······”

With Su Changxing’s hearing, he naturally heard their discussion.
