Global Game: I Have Portable Store

The Empire opposes all mysterious things, and their attitude toward the Church isn’t much different. In theory, the Princess shouldn’t want to join any Church.

”What, is it not possible? Didn’t you say that the All Beings Sect has no requirements for those who want to join?” Kasmin said with a smile.

Su Changxing couldn’t understand why Kasmin would want to join the All Beings Sect, but he nodded and said, ”Of course, Princess. It would be our honor for you to join our All Beings Sect.”

”Please don’t flatter me; the Divine Spirit doesn’t care for such things,” Kasmin replied with a hint of annoyance.

Su Changxing gestured to the believers who were changing clothes and said, ”How could it not matter? These are the citizens of the Empire. If we want more people to become believers, the best way is to rely on the Empire.”

”Don’t you agree, my Empress?”

Kasmin looked at the believers, most of whom were thin and wearing oversized robes, looking somewhat comical:

”If you can help me restore the Empire, I can guarantee that your All Beings Church will have a higher status than the Housheng Sect.”

She increasingly found Su Changxing to be unfathomable and understood that the All Beings Sect wasn’t as simple as it seemed. It felt more like a church starting from scratch, without any history.

She wasn’t foolish; she didn’t pursue this matter, knowing that Su Changxing might be hiding something, but these weren’t the main concerns.

To restore the Empire, she was willing to pay any price.

Su Changxing smiled lightly, seemingly indifferent, and said calmly, ”My Empress, I remember your promise. I hope the day comes when we can restore the Empire.”

Kasmin stared at Su Changxing, ”If you give it your all to help, I believe that day will come.”

All along this journey, she realized that the power Su Changxing possessed was not something a mere heretic could wield.

Su Changxing sensed Kasmin’s intense gaze and turned his head. His beautiful face was filled with seriousness:

”I can’t do it; it relies on you. If you don’t have the resolve as an Empress, even if I help you return to the throne, it might not be a good thing.”

Kasmin frowned slightly, ”What gives you the right to dismiss me so easily? What gives you the right?”

Su Changxing could understand why Kasmin had such a strong desire to restore the Empire.

Because it was her entire life, her destiny, the foundation of all her values.

”I can help you, help you kill Eric, help you kill all the opposing nobles here, but do you have what it takes to take over Maelon?” Su Changxing looked at Kasmin with a playful expression.

Kasmin gritted her teeth, glaring at him, and said fiercely, ”I can! Of course, I can.”

Su Changxing wasn’t sure what mindset made him say those words, just that he felt like provoking this princess... perhaps with a mindset of a father?

Now he subconsciously regarded Kasmin as a daughter.

It’s because she is indeed his daughter, and most likely born with the Empress.

This matter itself is very puzzling.

It was as if a decade ago, there was another him who came here as Liu Luola.

He could understand the concept of parallel worlds, but the Old City Lord told him that there are no parallel worlds, only false worlds.

But this world is clearly not a false world; a false world has a distinctive feature, which is being completely covered by the Doomsday Game.

Clearly, this world is not such a world.

Staying in this world, he can’t even receive any related tasks, as if disconnected from the Doomsday Game.

In the abandoned factory, the newly joined believers all changed clothes and followed High Priest Mike to the top-level idol to pray.

There weren’t many new joiners, only seventy or eighty, mostly shallow believers, with even a dozen who couldn’t be considered believers, just muddling around.

Su Changxing didn’t know how to deal with such people, so he let them stay in the All Beings Sect, hoping they could be influenced later.

After all, with time, people develop feelings; if you frequently visit a temple, even if you’re not a believer of Buddha, you’ll come to believe over time, subtly influenced.

The importance of these devout believers was demonstrated; they could gradually influence other believers.

[Collecting the faith of shallow believers, +500 Mysteriousness]

[Collecting the faith of shallow believers, +500 Mysteriousness]

[Collecting the faith of shallow believers, +500 Mysteriousness]

...

After this round of prayers, Su Changxing accumulated over ten thousand Mysteriousness, which was not insignificant, just not as much as before.

But if they could consistently provide such an amount of Mysteriousness daily, it would be a terrifying figure.

He was sure no Tier Six Extraordinary would increase Mysteriousness by harvesting faith; it was like using a cannon to shoot mosquitoes, a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken.

Kasmin, with a puffed-up expression, followed behind Su Changxing, ”Where are you going?”

Su Changxing pondered and said, ”Since we want to seize Maelon, we need to make some preparations.”

”There are still quite a few Rune Warriors in West City; it’s best to clear them all out, otherwise they’ll be a big problem.”

While walking, Kasmin suddenly noticed that Su Changxing’s way of walking was a bit awkward, ”What’s wrong with your foot? It looks a bit off, like you’re limping.”

Su Changxing nonchalantly replied, ”It’s nothing major, just some muscle paralysis, which is causing this issue.”

The sound of Buddhist scripture chanting by his ears had quieted a lot, but the mechanical corruption on his body still existed, though it hadn’t worsened.

This thing still affected him greatly, reducing his agility and speed, and he couldn’t use some displacement abilities.

They walked all the way to an alley outside West City, and from a distance, they saw a Rune Warrior stationed at the other end.

”Go take it down.”

Su Changxing said to Tao Yi, who had manifested into human form.

Kasmin was startled by this suddenly appearing girl, ”Is she a ghost!”

”You’re the ghost, your whole family are ghosts.” Tao Yi glanced at Kasmin, baring her teeth, and then, reluctantly holding her scythe, she walked along the alley toward the Rune Warrior.

Her body gradually turned ghostly and then disappeared.

After manifesting, Tao Yi’s power was severely weakened in this world, but she still retained the characteristics of the Undead.

”Anomaly detected, initiate reconnaissance.”

”Target present, search for specific position.”

”Target present, search for specific position.”

The Rune Warrior could also sense something approaching but was completely unable to pinpoint the exact location, idly looking around and entering some sort of frozen state.

Tao Yi approached the big guy, a cruel smile appeared on her face, marked with scarlet patterns, ”Let me cut you down!”

She raised her scythe, slashing towards the Rune Warrior’s chest, her movements indistinguishable from Su Changxing’s.

All her combat experience and skills came from Su Changxing, and she could borrow Su Changxing’s related abilities, though the power was much weaker.

Moreover, she has both Undead and Sword Servant growth, able to grow stronger as Su Changxing becomes more powerful.

Up to now, her strength could rival that of a typical Tier Six Extraordinary.

The strength of the Rune Warrior wasn’t much different from that of a Great Wizard, roughly between Tier Six and Tier Five.

Of course, Tao Yi’s personal strength couldn’t match the Rune Warrior’s, but since the Rune Warrior couldn’t see her at all, it was merely a sitting duck.

The scarlet scythe silently slid through the air, precisely piercing the body of the Rune Warrior through the chinks in its chest armor, creating a large hole.

”Sustained a fatal attack, initiating highest combat mode.”

The Rune Warrior’s face flashed red, scanning all around but still unable to discover the enemy, frozen, its upper body rotating in place.

With another scythe, Tao Yi decapitated the Rune Warrior, though who knows what she was thinking; clearly, striking the chest a few more times could end the battle quickly.

”Let me kill you!”

Excitement appeared on Tao Yi’s face, and with two more scythes, she sliced off one of the Rune Warrior’s arms, which fell to the ground with a heavy thud.

Truly perverse, even tormenting a robot... Su Changxing pondered, not knowing how Tao Yi turned bad; he always preached positive energy.

But having killed so many, thinking positive energy might be difficult.

Next, Tao Yi dismembered the Rune Warrior limb by limb, leaving only its body spinning in place.

In the end, the Rune Warrior, unable to bear the humiliation, self-destructed, causing quite a commotion and alerting the other nearby Rune Warriors.

Su Changxing also helplessly advised, ”Don’t play around, just kill them quickly with speed.”

Tao Yi stretched, made a face at Su Changxing’s words, then, carrying her scythe, charged towards another approaching Rune Warrior.

This time her movements were much more decisive, slashing with her scythe and effortlessly piercing the Rune Warrior’s body as it was still running, unaware.

This strike was also lucky, perfectly piercing the weak spot at the Rune Warrior’s chest, directly shattering it.

It seemed Tao Yi was the nemesis of these Rune Warriors, as a ghost, she was invincible to most people in this world.

After dealing with that Rune Warrior, Tao Yi turned and ran in another direction, where another Rune Warrior was coming over.

However.

This Rune Warrior was larger, its body entirely enclosed in white chest armor, tightly sealed without a single gap.

This time, Tao Yi’s shortcomings were exposed.

Her scythe slashed at the Rune Warrior’s chest, but the blade was solidly deflected, leaving a deep mark.
