Global Game: I Have Portable Store

Chapter 469: Chapter 55: Fossil Stone

After dinner, Su Changxing continued to flip through the book in his hand. It was a travelogue from the Doomsday Shop, considered a casual read.

But for him, it was knowledge.

That world also seemed to have an extraordinary power system, but it was different, giving Su Changxing the feeling of an incomplete extraordinary system.

They are divided into twelve paths, each path a single rank advancement. Becoming an Extraordinary was also special, through a kind of mark imprinted from childhood, becoming an Extraordinary upon reaching adulthood naturally.

However, they only had twelve job choices, and half of them were lost, so most people couldn’t become Extraordinary.

According to Su Changxing’s understanding, this was incompatibility.

This system seemed ineffective, but they had legends of mortals becoming gods.

”So can Extraordinary become gods at the end?”

Su Changxing touched his chin and put the book back in the bag.

He read quickly, basically skimming two pages at a glance, finishing a book as thick as a palm in just over ten minutes.

This reading method could be tentatively called the ”Quantum Reading Method,” appearing to others as if he just flipped through the book without reading seriously.

”Where are you going?”

Shen Jinxuan looked at Su Changxing as he slung a sniper rifle on his back, preparing to leave, and asked.

Su Changxing hesitated, then took out the handgun wrapped in bandages from his bag and handed it to her, saying:

”Just going for a walk nearby. Take the handgun for protection.”

Shen Jinxuan looked at the handgun, paused, and said, ”Okay, be careful.”

Su Changxing went out naturally to hunt the remaining Gladiators; if not dealt with, they remained a threat, and half of the people in the top ten were still alive.

Due to the rain, T3, originally prepared to return to the city, was blocked outside and had to wait.

Without the help of reconnaissance robots, finding these Gladiators became much more difficult, and with large-scale building collapses, there were no relative vantage points.

It wasn’t until evening that he trudged back to the hotel through the rain, bare-chested. The rain had lessened since the morning but remained deadly.

Those Gladiators hid away, making them difficult to find. He only managed to hunt twelve by the afternoon, less than a tenth of the night before.

”Bang~”

Just as he reached the door, he heard the sound of a handgun.

Su Changxing’s eyes narrowed, only to see Jin crouching on a chair, waving a gun around, looking bored.

Others in the room wore expressions of fear and trepidation.

”Sister, sister, that’s not how you handle that,” Zhen Qi Yi, standing far away, advised with a grievance-filled look like a bullied little girl.

He thought Shen Jinxuan should be quite approachable, but after Su Changxing left, she seemed like a different person, or rather, she became another person.

Su Changxing entered, changing his clothes in passing, and said irritably, ”Don’t scare people.”

Jin sat cross-legged on the chair, pouting, and said, ”I was just trying the gun... and it’s so boring.”

Because it’s so boring, you need to scare people? What kind of logic is that... Zhen Qi Yi felt a bit overwhelmed, feeling that the leader’s woman was completely crazy, scarier than the leader — no, the leader only inspired awe.

Su Changxing glanced at the troubled Zhen Qi Yi, offering assurance: ”Don’t worry; she won’t shoot people randomly.”

”Who can be sure of that!” Jin muttered in a small voice.

Zhen Qi Yi raised an eyebrow, falling into contemplation: ”...”

Su Changxing asserted confidently, ”She’s just scaring you, that’s never happened before.”

”But the gun might misfire,” Jin added.

Zhen Qi Yi smiled awkwardly and said, ”Sister, I’ll go cook, make something tasty.”

Then, he ran to the kitchen as if escaping.

Su Changxing sat next to her, helplessly saying, ”Ordinary people can’t handle your intimidation.”

To ordinary people, Jin possessed an inherent sense of overpowering pressure, especially when she smiled.

Jin got up and leaned against Su Changxing’s shoulder, looking dejectedly at him, saying, ”So boring~ I want to do something interesting.”

Doomsday World might be the most interesting place for her, with endless battles and killing... Su Changxing ran his fingers through the ends of her hair, finding them smooth. He retrieved his phone and earphones from his bag, smiling:

”Listen to music. Although there’s no internet, there should still be some songs saved.”

Jin’s eyes lit up as she fiddled with the phone, soon wearing the earphones, shaking to the music, while her hands played with something.

A cacophony came from the earphones, seemingly heavy metal rock songs.

This taste seemed expected... Su Changxing picked up his phone, checking the messages on it.

[Mission (Hell City) Completed]

[Obtained Fossil Stone]

[Obtained High-tier Mysterious Item, Jumping Fish]

[Jumping Fish (B crown, Middle Rank): A fish carved from wood, placed on the ground to simulate the appearance of any object or creature and attract nearby creatures’ hatred.]

”Seems not very useful.”

Su Changxing looked at the wooden fish in his hand, feeling this so-called high-tier mysterious item was a bit overrated.

The wooden fish was crudely carved; if it weren’t known to be a wooden fish, Su Changxing might not have recognized it, looking more like a cow.

As for the Fossil Stone, it was quite intriguing.

This thing could also be called a Promotion Stone, capable of assisting those below Tier Seven Extraordinary in self-advancing, forming non-fixed positions.

If successful, this position would at least be Upper Rank, with a very high compatibility.

”Is this thing good or bad?”

Su Changxing found himself uncertain.

The Fossil Stone’s randomness was too high, merely a gamble on luck, and a failure could lead to the collapse of the position.

The failure rate seemed not low.

But he could indeed wait; his Mysteriousness was still a bit short of being full, and he hadn’t completely understood this position yet.

His time as an Extraordinary was too short, and his growth was so rapid that he didn’t have great confidence in advancing.

On the other hand, he was eager to improve his strength.

”Better to wait, play it safe.”

After much hesitation, Su Changxing put the Fossil Stone into his bag, deciding to advance when the time was right.

A short while later.

Zhen Qi Yi brought several steaming dishes to the table, smiling: ”Here, try the meal I made.”

”Alright, let’s try it.”

Su Changxing picked up chopsticks, staring at the dishes frozen.

[Poisonous food...]

Zhen Qi Yi looked at Su Changxing suddenly halting, puzzled: ”Leader, what’s wrong?”

Su Changxing turned to him, speaking lightly: ”Did you poison it?”

Zhen Qi Yi was dumbfounded by the question and immediately said: ”How could that be possible? I can test it first.”

Saying so, he picked up the chopsticks to serve some food, but Su Changxing knocked them away.
