It seemed to be advocating the so-called apocalypse as divine spirits’ punishment on them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Specifically, he hadn’t delved much into it; the forum was full of clutter, comprised of all sorts of fantastical entities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you hold a heavy guard against us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A short silhouette looked up at him, revealing a lifeless face, as if smiling:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We may not be of the same race, nor creatures of the same era, but we have something in common.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of commonality...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing didn’t respond, for he couldn’t perceive any commonality with such a monstrosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t believe me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette lowered his head, seeming to fall into thought, with a voice thin but deep, \"Hm, it’s understandable not to believe. In this world, every piece of information has its value, but I can disclose some key information to you for free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette paused, observing Su Changxing’s expression, then continued, \"The path I initially walked is called the Path of True Exploration, which you may not know, but put another way, you should know, the Dreamer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Heretic Ninth Tier position is also a Dreamer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing’s face darkened slightly, saying, \"You mean to say the Dreamer is the start of heresy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette shook his head and said, \"No, do you think just anything can become a heretic? It’s merely a possibility; all things tend toward extinction, but we will not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A truly immortal existence!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette appeared before Su Changxing, looking up at him, though it felt more like looking down, a condescending gaze, as if a human were looking down at an ant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boom!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The primer hit the bullet’s base, sparking an explosion, violently expanding the air, while the bullet spiraled with grooves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Su Changxing pulled the trigger, a bullet with flames and a roaring sound shot towards the short silhouette; at such close range, there was almost no room to dodge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette was struck, sent flying by the bullet’s massive force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It appeared once more before Su Changxing, appraisingly saying, \"Not bad power, at least much greater than I imagined.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing took a deep breath, refraining from shooting further, as it seemed futile, and might indeed provoke the other party.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette continued, \"No need to be so tense, you are insignificant to us, serving no purpose.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp voice sounded nearby, \"Still can eat, I haven’t had meat in ages.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette nodded, \"Yes, still can eat, but it’s not important. I know you may be in some trouble now; we can assist you, with our power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing pursed his lips, smiling slightly, \"No need, no need to trouble you all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rip~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without finishing his words, the short silhouette’s hand pierced Su Changxing’s abdomen, blood spreading across the fabric.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette whispered softly, \"What a pity, you have no right to refuse. I have witnessed the demise of myriad worlds, far more than you have.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This skull’s getting me into trouble again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing’s pupils dilated, feeling no pain, as if dosed with anesthesia, his body immobile, he indifferently said, \"Is that so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bright white streak slashed downward from above, like a pen carving through a page painted with watercolors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the backpack, the skull’s eyes blazed with red light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette was bisected by the streak, neither bleeding nor collapsing, just standing quietly there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette remarked, surprised, \"Ha, didn’t expect we had company.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing felt a sinking in his heart; it was evident the skull’s means had no substantial effect on the opponent, prompting him to complain, \"You might as well have done nothing, instead, you’ve exposed yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skull replied mildly, \"Did you expect me to watch you die here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing rationally said, \"He won’t kill me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He will,\" the skull affirmed, \"Once they infiltrate this world, everything will decay, nothing shall escape.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now the outcome seems unchanged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing firm, Su Changxing’s face was impassive, neither joyous nor sorrowful, his abdomen a gaping void, with no visible flesh, only gray matter within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The phone vibrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Detected unclaimed Matrix nearby, would you like to collect?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Estimated cost: thirty thousand Points]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Matrix?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing’s expression shifted, uncertain of what madness the Discount Store was up to, but he consented without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Extracting, please wait]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skull in the backpack grumbled loudly, \"Hahaha, you lurking heretics, is this all you’re capable of, mere rats.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rats?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette’s body restored, saying blandly, \"Then what exactly are you? A displaced being, lacking a beginning and an end, a bug.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single wave of his hand, the surrounding space turned grayer, as if the sound of tides. It felt as if they were on a small island at sea, amidst a tumultuous night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, cough cough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing suddenly knelt down, coughing up blood that spattered like waves upon the ground, fine, gray tendrils emerged from his skin, waving in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew a short knife with one hand, slicing off a tendril from his face, spurting blood, he asked, \"What have you done to me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skull grew indignant, \"Kid, now see, your wayward actions have ensnared me too. This guy is too terrifying, we’re doomed to wait for death.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing lowered his head, saying, \"Can you delay time? We might still have a chance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skull didn’t hesitate, cursing immediately, \"Rat, why the hurry, let’s chat. I, the magnificent True Knower, might have something of interest to you here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing hesitated; he expected the skull to act, not expecting it to resort to rhetoric, proving it was genuinely at wit’s end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short silhouette blandly said, \"True Knower? Those pitiable creatures who arrogantly claimed to grasp everything? Had you truly been a True Knower, you wouldn’t have ended up like this. As I know it, hah, they are the real rats.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The growth of the tendrils slowed, Su Changxing sensed his Life Force increasing instead of diminishing, with enormous Power commanding his limbs, likely enabling him to kill a Screamer with a single punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thought emerged in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Humanity truly seemed a fragile existence, so pitifully weak.\u003C\u002Fp>",1093,"2026-06-05T22:29:48.975Z",1,"novelbin.me","6ffd172a8fcc17b167a7974b650c0fa0007bc6c9267794c00814b4027bb5ca70","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-228","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-448",584,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-game-i-have-portable-store-cover.jpg"]
