Global Game: I Have Portable Store

Guo Fengyan, this name Su Changxing had heard before, seemed to be a player who escaped from West Bridge City, and was himself an Extraordinary.

It’s surprising that he didn’t escape.

Su Changxing remembered these people as cunning, surviving the apocalypse, and they possessed strong survival skills. They were a group who initially fled alone.

”So why didn’t they evacuate together?” Su Changxing thought of this and asked.

Ge Yunhua hesitated for a moment before saying, ”Leader Guo said, ’The Security Bureau has fled, but he can’t leave. Someone has to stay because many ordinary people cannot evacuate.’”

Su Changxing frowned slightly, sneering, ”That’s easy to say...”

Ge Yunhua forced a smile without speaking, fearing to say anything that might anger this Extraordinary. With some constraints lifted, killing in rage is not unheard of.

Previously, someone here killed another in a fit of anger over nothing more than an argument, and left immediately after.

”Are there many survivors here?” Su Changxing shifted the topic and asked.

Ge Yunhua sighed and replied, ”Not many. The dead are dead, the escaped have escaped, and the rest are hiding. There are only about a few thousand left.”

”If it weren’t for Leader Guo and his people, there might not have been even a few thousand left. The police carrying weapons left a long time ago.”

Then, Su Changxing followed Ge Yunhua to their gathering place, a residential area, which was entirely dark at night, making it hard to imagine there were thousands here.

As they approached, several figures emerged.

”Ge Yunhua, what’s the situation? Are there still any survivors?” A short-haired young man, also wearing bulletproof gear, approached and asked.

He saw Su Changxing, paused for a moment: ”Who is he?”

Ge Yunhua glanced sideways at Su Changxing and said, ”This gentleman is from the Security Bureau... an Extraordinary.”

The short-haired youth’s eyes moved slightly upon hearing this, saying, ”Hey, weren’t you guys gone already? How come you’re still here.”

Su Changxing looked at him with a trace of a smile and said, ”Indeed, we left, but I stayed due to some accidents.”

At this moment, Ge Yunhua frantically signaled to the short-haired youth not to act impulsively, but it seemed of little use.

”Ha, that’s really unfortunate!” The short-haired youth gave a fake smile tinged with mockery.

Su Changxing seemed unaware of the mockery, and continued walking forward, asking, ”Are there any other Extraordinary or players here?”

”Players?” The short-haired youth paused, looking confused.

Su Changxing nodded thoughtfully, ”Hmm, it seems Guo Fengyan didn’t tell you these details.”

The short-haired youth followed behind and asked, ”What are you trying to do?”

Su Changxing opened his canned grape juice and took a sip, observed the surroundings, and said, ”Just passing by, checking out the situation here.”

Indeed, there was not a single Extraordinary, all were ordinary people, likely no player either, it seems those with combat abilities were already wiped out.

”Then let us perish as we are, those remaining here may find it hard to survive.” The short-haired youth said with some dejection.

Guo Fengyan and the others being captured left him feeling hopeless, as if the sky had collapsed, and he considered giving up here, although he could protect those here when led.

But if only they were left, more often it’s about how to survive.

Su Changxing smiled slightly, ”Don’t worry, I’ll rest here for a while and leave by morning.”

Ge Huayun stepped forward and quickly said, ”Master, please don’t take it to heart, Leader Guo being captured has everyone in a bad mood.”

Su Changxing waved his hand, looked at the short-haired youth and said, ”What’s your name?”

”Xu Gang.”

The short-haired youth answered with his head down, walking with a stiff gait, his thigh wrapped in blood-stained cloth, having clearly suffered significant injury.

Su Changxing handed him the juice, ”Hold this for me!”

”Huh?”

Xu Gang instinctively took the juice from Su Changxing’s hand.

Su Changxing pulled out an Ancient Bronze Pendant from his coat and said:

”No one else is to blame for all this, life and death is fate. If you die, you can only blame bad luck. No one should die for others... But if you hold firm in your convictions, then you ought to strengthen yourself and act upon them, rather than dictate to others what they should do.”

Xu Gang took a deep breath, grasping the back of his head with one hand, and said, ”Sorry, it’s probably not the fault of your Security Bureau... I just feel powerless, it’s overwhelming.”

Rich emotions grant humans infinite potential, yet collapse often happens in a blink.

The apocalypse can weed out those who fall apart, leaving behind those with great resilience.

Xu Gang was on the brink of collapse.

Su Changxing saw it as well, having met many such people before, paving the way of the Extraordinary path is inherently a journey toward despair.

”Familiar faces fall one after another, and we can’t do much, only watch, evade, living like insects... I hate insects.”

His face twisted, his body shivered, emotions reaching the peak, yet tears didn’t fall.

A woman with short, curly hair standing behind him patted his shoulder, ”Xu Gang, enough.”

The others remained silent.

Su Changxing crossed his arms, looked back at him, and said, ”Indeed, you act like an insect, but insect, there’s an opportunity to become stronger here, do you want it?”

”An opportunity to become stronger?”

Xu Gang froze, dumbly asking, ”You mean a chance to become an Extraordinary? Isn’t that impossible, isn’t becoming an Extraordinary random?”

”Hm, such a naive perspective, who told you this?” Su Changxing snorted contemptuously, expressing some dissatisfaction.

Xu Gang thought for a moment, then said, ”Leader Guo told us, he is also an Extraordinary, and almost everyone thinks this way.”

For ordinary people, becoming Extraordinary may indeed seem random, with success or failure hard to estimate.

Others, including Ge Yunhua, were also stunned upon hearing these words, never expecting Su Changxing to say this.

Their first reaction was that Su Changxing was deceiving them, but there seemed to be no need for that, as a strong person need not use tricks against the weak, why use poison when a knife suffices.

Su Changxing smiled, speaking unhurriedly, ”He... he’s someone I saved from West Bridge City, whose words are more credible, do you think?”

”You are?”

Xu Gang’s eyes widened, recalling Guo Fengyan’s prior mention of this, felt amazed at the time, despite their dissatisfaction with Security Bureau, they admired the Leader.

Ge Yunhua reacted faster, saying, ”You are Su Changxing, Leader Su, right?”

”Hmm? Am I that famous?”

Su Changxing stroked his chin, surprised that people here recognized him.

Ge Yunhua nodded, said, ”Leader Guo spoke of you before, said you are the strongest Extraordinary he ever met, without exception.”

He reminisced Guo Fengyan speaking of Su Changxing... Guo Fengyan sat on a chair, legs crossed, gesturing with his hands, confidently saying, ”Su Changxing? He’s strong, but should only be a bit stronger than me, not much.”
