Global Game: I Have Portable Store

”A large number of wandering souls appeared on the east side of the town?”

A gentle man in a black coat with gold orchid patterns on his chest frowned slightly as he questioned.

He was the captain of the investigation team formed this time, and one of the youngest powerhouses among the Imperial Police, Kelisey, born to commoners and formerly a member of the Spirit Awakening Class in the Church.

He hadn’t expected this kind of incident; initially, he thought it was just a serial murder case.

They were all too familiar with such cases.

Ordinary people suddenly acquire extraordinary powers but lack a strong enough inner strength to support them. When they are suppressed, they tend to go astray.

They came here to deal with this murder case just in passing; their main objective was to handle another matter related to the cult.

Chris stood on the rooftop of the church, the lingering shade already dispersed by him, his light yellow hair fluttering in the night breeze.

He looked at the street far away, where a massive, endless wave of Evil Spirits gathered, and clasped his hands together on his chest, closing his eyes, muttering inexplicable words.

A sacred white light emerged between his hands, circling, condensing, rising.

The next moment.

A lightning-like white light descended from the sky, exploding among the Evil Spirits, radiating outward, annihilating the majority of them.

This was a power that restrained them.

Su Changxing sensed a large number of Evil Spirits being disconnected simultaneously, and he couldn’t help but be startled. The remaining white light still lingered in the air over the town, gradually fading away.

The sacred and amiable feeling still lingered.

This was definitely a Tier Six powerhouse!

This was both expected and surprising to him.

Su Changxing, wearing a Clown Mask, ran from the edge of the town towards Weiluo’s direction. He couldn’t let Weiluo die or be captured here; he needed to let him escape to draw others’ attention.

At this moment.

More people joined the hunt for Weiluo; he was in a desperate situation, directly struck in the chest by a fireball falling from the sky, crashing into a wall.

The fire tainted the Clown Mask with a layer of black, scorching the original material.

A grim look appeared in his eyes, carrying a hint of despair as he felt dozens of auras appear nearby, completely blocking his escape routes.

When Su Changxing arrived, he saw this scene. Everything seemed just right, but in fact, Weiluo was more capable than he had expected.

Standing on the edge of a domed building, his perception and vision suddenly expanded, locking onto the positions of everyone nearby.

The surrounding environment was under control.

Su Changxing’s eyes traced a silver line in the darkness as he raised his gun, pulling the trigger. A series of bullets shot out like elongated meteors.

All the Players, including Bai Qianyu, were instantly taken out by him, falling to the ground.

Weiluo’s expression froze, seeing the detectives before him suddenly explode and die without warning.

In his daze, a familiar voice came from above.

”Leave the town, get out of here; I’ll cover you.”

Weiluo looked up; it was the ”Joker.”

Bowing to the mighty power, he obediently ran towards the outskirts of the town.

Because if he didn’t, he would die.

······

”Who... who was that?”

Bai Qianyu jolted awake beside the Resurrection Stone, having seen a blurry figure on a distant rooftop before dying, looking at him, seemingly smiling.

A chill spread outward from his bones.

”They’re all dead!”

He looked at the messages from others in shock, discovering that in less than a second, everyone involved in besieging the Joker had been killed, including the NPCs executing the task, amounting to around thirty people.

This was too exaggerated!

This could only be accomplished by a Level 30 or higher BOSS, yet such a monster was hiding in Chaixi Town.

He checked Su Changxing’s task, only to find it had already become difficult, indicating that it would be hard to complete relying on themselves alone.

Why did the task’s difficulty suddenly increase? Was there a connection here?

”Brother Baiyu, what should we do now? Are we still going?” asked a short man wearing a vest with a conflicted expression.

He wanted to continue the task but also lamented the loss of experience from dying.

Bai Qianyu was already considered the strongest among them, yet he was still instantly killed, clearly showing it wasn’t a task they could complete.

Bai Qianyu fell silent for a while, then sensibly said, ”Let’s outsource the task. I’m sure someone will be interested in it.”

They could still receive partial rewards from the outsourced task.

”Yeah, that’s the only way.”

The other companions agreed, showing rationality and experience.

······

Weiluo ran unimpeded to the town’s outskirts, and anyone who stepped forward to intercept him was taken out by Su Changxing from a distance.

Seeing Weiluo exit the town, Su Changxing stopped following and instead ran back towards the farms because his abilities would weaken during the day, necessitating that he maintain his current NPC identity.

Soon, some Imperial Police followed Weiluo’s trail out of town.

The Evil Spirits vanished completely.

The town returned to the silence of the deep night, as if the earlier commotion had been a fleeting illusion.

Footsteps echoed from outside.

Lina returned, calling out, ”Klein, are you okay?”

Su Changxing poked his head out the door, saying, ”I’m fine. How’s the situation? Did they catch the killer?”

Lina saw Klein, let out a sigh of relief, and calmly said, ”It’s fine. It’s been resolved; it’s just that the culprit has escaped the town, which is a bit troublesome.”

Su Changxing thought for a moment, showing a strange expression, and said, ”Since the culprit is gone, why are you still here? Just freeloading?”

Lina felt a mix of amusement and exasperation, saying, ”I’m here to check on you; if you’re dead, I’ll bury you to prevent you from rotting.”

With that, she turned to leave, saying, ”You can sleep now.”

”Much appreciated.”

Su Changxing casually watched Lina’s departing back, feeling slightly relieved, thinking it was troublesome to have someone keeping an eye on him constantly.

However, Weiluo should be able to get away······

While he only took action once tonight, he managed to eliminate many players, gaining a considerable amount of experience, over two thousand.

Considering this, advancing doesn’t seem too difficult; the real challenge is safely advancing without exposing his identity.

He tidied up the teacups on the table a bit, then went inside to lie down and sleep, the outside commotion seemingly unrelated to him.

Soon after.

Su Changxing suddenly opened his eyes in the Darkness, sensing someone nearby the farm, observing, without approaching.

Who could it be?

Su Changxing saw a small light point, followed by a letter sliding down from the ceiling, falling onto the table, and that person leaving.

He opened the letter.

”Klein, it’s time for you to fulfill your promise. The third son of Grand Duke will arrive in Chaixi Town in a few days; I hope you can take care of him.”

”As you understand, there are lucrative rewards that can allow you to progress further along the path of the Extraordinary; you deserve these.”

”One more thing, Rick has been killed; find out who did it. I don’t want a third party meddling.”
