Global Game: I Have Portable Store

The bodies that disappeared were things that never existed, violating the inherent order, once again turning into nothingness, as if they never appeared, yet leaving traces in this world.

The foundation of this world’s real dimension has been shaken!

If he were one of the people existing here, after knowing all this, he might even question the authenticity of his own existence, just like that person named Zeng A Long.

When Chen Tiannan suggested that he was a non-existent person, although there was no incident at the time, he then became silent, irreversibly spiraling out of control, showing clear mental disorder that night.

”Send him away.” Chen Tiannan calmly said as he looked at the restrained Zeng A Long.

At that time, he deliberately pointed this out, wanting to see what would happen after this non-existent person learned about his unreality.

Unexpectedly, he lost control, as if his spirit had been deeply polluted.

”He might have already been polluted.” Ximen Long looked grim, feeling lost despite his strong ability to accept things.

Chen Tiannan also fell silent, not knowing what to do next. Should they kill all these people who appeared out of thin air, and besides him, no one else can identify them.

He couldn’t exist for long either; without a soul, his will would eventually be worn down by time.

”Let’s head to the nearby gathering place; there should be new developments over there.” Chen Tiannan stood up from the ground, without much rest, preparing to leave nonstop.

He didn’t have much time left, so he wanted to do more while he still existed in this world, to make a subtle contribution.

”Your injuries are severe.” Ximen Long noticed a large hole in Chen Tiannan’s abdomen. Although there was no blood, it was still extremely alarming.

Chen Tiannan said indifferently, ”The incompleteness of my body cannot be reversed; there is only a thread of life left in me, and my consciousness will fade away even faster.”

”I’m probably already a dead man, so there’s no need to worry.”

Ximen Long snorted coldly, ”I’m not worried about you; it’s just such people as yourself, dying means one less, and if humanity is left only with those who know only self-interest, they will naturally be exterminated.”

Chen Tiannan looked at him, ”Willpower doesn’t perish, and neither does humanity’s will.”

······

Su Changxing can perceive the situation around Chen Tiannan through Perception, noticing that the Extraordinary who lost control was not only undergoing physical mutation but also rapidly losing presence.

”It seems that only when recognized as truly existing by humans can it gradually become more real. Once this process is interrupted, it immediately reverses.”

Su Changxing reached a conclusion that seemed like a method to solve the problem, but it actually wasn’t.

People in the Drowning Illusion Realm cannot discern this because they have already drowned.

Like Zeng A Long, if not for Chen Tiannan’s reminder, no one would discover it until he became a real human being, truly existing in the reality dimension, with his own present, past, and future.

Chen Tiannan could feel a vague call, thinking of that unknown and powerful existence. From the previous brief encounter, he could sense that Su Changxing did not dislike humans, even carrying a hint of friendliness, so he asked in his heart:

”What should I do? How can I stop this phenomenon? Or has it already become unstoppable and requires more extreme measures.”

He was just asking without expecting that existence to answer him. He now had nothing, even his soul had been sold.

After waiting long without a response, just when he thought that existence would ignore him, a distant and serene voice came, as if it was coming from the corner of the starry sky:

”You could try removing the non-existent people.”

The matter-of-fact words further solidified Chen Tiannan’s thoughts; it was what he had in mind.

When they arrived at the nearest gathering place, they found something was amiss. At a glance, many people were moving in teams along the streets, like the bustling city centers before the apocalypse.

But any normal person would know that in an apocalyptic gathering place, there shouldn’t be so many people, nor would people be so densely packed.

”If many of these people are non-existent, then the food in the gathering place should be insufficient. But looking at it now, everything runs normally, without any incidents.” Ximen Long observed the gathering place, full of confusion.

Chen Tiannan shook his head, ”Precisely because no surprises happen and everything operates with logical reasoning, no one would notice the anomaly.”

There could be non-existent humans, as well as non-existent food, clothes, even housing.

He couldn’t imagine what this world would become if this continued or if they could survive the apocalypse.

Ximen Long hesitated for a moment, asked, ”Then what should we do, eliminate them?”

He vaguely sensed Chen Tiannan’s intention, which was quite clear. Otherwise, why would they come here, certainly not for a simple look?

”Merely revealing the truth would instead make those people lose control and complicate matters further.” Chen Tiannan said with an unchanged tone, ”Find the leader of the gathering place and tell them these people have been contaminated, their spirits distorted, and need to be executed on the spot.”
