Global Game: I Have Portable Store

[Task completion: Defeat the Undead]

After the King of Corpse Eaters departed, such a message popped up on Su Changxing’s phone, which was a task released by the Doomsday Game.

[Reward: One hundred High-tier Magic Stones, one page of the Book of the Dead]

[Book of the Dead (Summoning): B crown, Upper Rank, a part of the Book of the Dead, which is the Scepter in the hands of the Undead Monarch, equivalent to a Divine Artifact, and was lost during a battle thousands of years ago.

Each page of the Book of the Dead has a different function or authority.

Summoning: Summoning an Undead Knight from the Death Realm, the specific strength of the Undead Knight depends on the host’s Spiritual Power, up to Epic Level.]

”A nice item.”

Su Changxing looked at the paper in his hand, yellowed and tattered at the edges, as if torn from an ancient book.

After returning to Blue Star, the task system of the Doomsday Game started operating again. It seemed that because of the immense strength of the King of Corpse Eaters, the rewards given were quite generous.

He used Spiritual Power to stimulate the page of the Book of the Dead, and felt a connection from a distant time and space, sensing his target in a dark space.

In that dark space, he felt numerous eyes, some of which belonged to powerful beings, examining him.

A bluish flame ignited, and then a massive black figure appeared in front of Su Changxing, seemingly appearing out of thin air, or formed by a chaotic puzzle.

A giant humanoid creature wielding a Giant Axe and clad in black iron armor.

”Greetings, master.”

The Undead Knight kneeled on the ground, its knee crashing heavily into the floor, forming a small pit, and nodded to Su Changxing.

Quite formidable in strength, close to Tier Five, with combat capabilities potentially comparable to the Zombie Dragon.

However, the Undead Knight appeared more restrained, akin to a cold stone, a yet-to-be-activated war machine.

Beside him, Lu Yu stared blankly at the suddenly appearing undead creature, taking several steps back, and looked at Su Changxing, asking:

”Leader Su, what is this thing?”

Su Changxing put away the page of the Book of the Dead, as it has a usage limit, only usable once every four days.

Yet this Undead Knight summoned from the Death Realm could remain here indefinitely, as long as Su Changxing maintained it with some Spiritual Power, which wasn’t a significant drain.

”Don’t worry, it’s my summoned creature, let it stay here as a guard.” Su Changxing said thoughtfully.

Lu Yu nodded, still feeling uneasy, and asked seriously:

”What should we do now?”

Su Changxing leaned against the high wall, pondering, and said: ”For the next few days, everyone should remain inside the settlement, enter a defense state, as those undead might return at any moment.”

”Within this black fog lies a passage to another realm that belongs to the Undead World, very dangerous, which perhaps none of you noticed before.”

”Or perhaps, this passage was just recently opened...”

Stopping here, he paused, suddenly considering a possibility — could this passage have been opened because of him?

This might be a means of that Titan old man, who, due to certain rules, couldn’t directly resurrect on Blue Star and could only resurrect in the realm of the undead.

Consider it from another angle, it’s possible the Undead World itself has a close connection with Blue Star.

Since ancient times, there have been legends of the Underworld and Netherworld, only differing regionally.

Ultimately.

Ancients believed the dead didn’t completely disappear but went to places like the Underworld and Netherworld as spirits.

Su Changxing knew that souls exist but would quickly dissipate when exposed to space.

But what if instead of dissipating, they went elsewhere?

The Undead World could possibly correspond to Blue Star’s Underworld or Netherworld, just separated due to some reason, yet still retaining a passage, a passage right in Chenzhou.

Because of Titan old man, the passage reopened.

Thinking this way, his resurrection from the Undead World seemed quite reasonable.

Switching to someone weaker, even if resurrected, they’d still perish in the Undead World.

That world teeming with undead is extremely dangerous for the living.

Su Changxing walked down the stairs along the high wall, suddenly recalling something, turned back to Lu Yu, and said:

”There’s one more thing.”

”What is it?” Lu Yu listened intently, paying close attention to every word from Su Changxing.

”Don’t reveal my identity to anyone else, especially not on the forums. Also, control others within the settlement.” Su Changxing emphasized.

Lu Yu hesitated a bit, explaining: ”But just now, all players from Chenzhou were aware of our situation.”

”Some people like to post everything on forums. Now we have real-name registration, but it’s often uncontrollable.”

Su Changxing seemed indifferent: ”That doesn’t matter. Just not exposing my identity is enough.”

Lu Yu’s face twitched: ”But, showing such a strong power, many people will likely guess your identity, as there aren’t many with such abilities.”

Su Changxing shrugged: ”Just handle it well. Should be skilled craftsmen in the settlement.”

”Ah.” Lu Yu was stunned for a moment.

Su Changxing continued: ”Let them cook a few dishes, I haven’t had cooked dishes in quite a while. You know, food in each world is entirely different.”

Lu Yu came to: ”No problem, there’s a chef with great skill in the settlement, even professionally before the apocalypse.”

Su Changxing nodded: ”Just randomly cook a few dishes, I’m going to rest for a bit. Haha, you might not expect, I probably haven’t slept for a long time, already forgotten what sleep feels like.”

Because of being a Dreamer, he still needed some rest, which kind of served as a mental self-adjustment.

Watching Su Changxing’s departing figure, Lu Yu felt somewhat dazed, as today’s events were indeed too sudden, making it impossible for him to sleep now.

”Fang Nan, issue orders to all squads, enter Tier One defense state, those undead could return anytime, we must be well-prepared.” He instructed a nearby long-haired young man in black combat attire,

”Deploy all remaining heavy firepower to the south side, as those undead are likely to come from there, any utility is worth it.”

”Also, prohibit entry and exit of the settlement...”

Lu Yu made a gesture, speaking to another relatively younger woman: ”Have the best chef in the canteen prepare a table of dishes and send them to Mr. Su.”

The woman showed a surprised expression: ”Now?”

Lu Yu nodded, advising: ”Tell them this Mr. Su is someone significant above Seventeen, be attentive.”

The woman naturally knew Mr. Su’s extraordinary status and immense power, she laughed:

”There’s no need to tell them, they’ll vie eagerly to cook for Mr. Su.”

She leaned forward, whispered beside Lu Yu: ”Leader, can you tell who exactly Mr. Su is?”
