They huddled against the walls, not daring to make a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people looked weak, their lips pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few women, clothes in disarray, crouched together. Compared to those vicious people, this monk instilled even more terror in them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dozen or so Buddhist beads glided through the air, returning to the monk’s hand, stringing together without any thread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At a glance, the monk noticed that many showed signs of turning into corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, that wasn’t his goal. His objective was the doll made from dead wood, set up in the middle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thing looked simple and crude, hardly resembling a puppet, but in the dim light, a pair of real eyes could be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk didn’t know exactly what this thing was, probably some legendary ghost. The task assigned to him by the Doomsday Game was to eliminate this doll made of branches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Buddhist bead shot out, piercing through the doll. The dry, black branches scattered apart, and that ominous feeling vanished abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk calmly told these people, \"You’d better leave this place before nightfall. The Hunters have already set their sights here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Side quest (God-Stealing Puppet) completed]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Reward obtained, Enhancing Essence]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden light flashed in the monk’s eyes as he took out his phone and glanced at it, finding an announcement from the Security Bureau on the forum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No-Man’s Land?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk turned his head to the east of the city, pondering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Security Bureau was akin to the previous Dynasty in status. Long ago, they also followed the Commander of the Dynasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their decline began with the fall of the Dynasty. They are relics of the old era, not accepted, and their legacy is nearly broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>·····\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao’s hands emitted a green glow, and a wound on Su Changxing’s chest gradually healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Amazing, this ability is top-notch for a medic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xiuyu stood by, commenting and praising, feeling that such an ability was extremely important within a team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao withdrew his hands and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, it rapidly consumes my stamina and energy. At most, I can use it three times in a short period.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xiuyu curled his lips, mocking,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s already terrifying, and the time it takes is short. With you around, those surgeons might as well quit and start cooking instead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing stood up, feeling a bit better all over, and said, \"Shen Jinxuan also needs your treatment, though your ability might not be of use for her condition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao displayed a peculiar expression, asking curiously, \"Why is she in the No-Man’s Land? Wasn’t she in our settlement before? How did she come so far out here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, \"What if I said she accidentally wandered into the No-Man’s Land herself, would you believe it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao found the girl’s background peculiar and thought it was remarkable she returned from the No-Man’s Land, but it didn’t seem like it was an extraordinary feat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he stepped out the door,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing saw Old Shang hurrying over with Xu Wenfeng, seemingly anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao frowned and asked, \"Old Shang, what happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Shang glanced at Lin Xiuyu beside him and said urgently, \"Geng Yong and a few others have lost contact. We tried reaching out via phone, but there was no response.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenfeng hesitated for a moment, then chimed in,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Su, I saw them heading back, but their goal was to clear zombies on the adjacent street.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have they... left?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing raised an eyebrow and said rather calmly, \"I ran into them on my way up. They were indeed heading back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he hadn’t noticed at the time, thinking back now, Geng Yong seemed slightly panicked, and the people with him remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao squinted, seemed about to speak, then paused, turning to Su Changxing, \"What now? They might have escaped...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao’s intentions were obvious: whether to let them go or give chase was a tough decision. If Geng Yong and his people got away, surely others would be tempted to escape too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a way, Geng Yong and the others were deserters on the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the military, the punishment for desertion was always severe to prevent more from adopting the same mindset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instinct for self-preservation makes people avoid danger; greed for life and fear of death is the norm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Su Changxing was about to speak, Huang Biao added,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But they might not have run away, ha, don’t you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing nodded, a smile curling his lips, \"Indeed, we are all good brothers... But even if one must leave, a notice would be nice, don’t you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, he had already figured it out when he met Geng Yong and the others earlier but had let them go anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was hesitating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used to firmly believe that even if he didn’t save others, he shouldn’t decide their life and death. Everyone has the right to live or the right to choose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he had to make that decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao took a deep breath and said, \"I’ll bring them back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing drew out a Steel Saber from his backpack and said assertively, \"I’ll go with Zhu Wenwu, since their escape is partly my responsibility.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenfeng glanced at those around, interjecting, \"Brother Su, I’ll also go. I can locate them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing cast a puzzled look at Xu Wenfeng — this person whom he had saved using \"Pastoral Spirit\" — and said, \"It seems you don’t possess any Perception abilities.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenfeng gritted his teeth and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, I sensed it earlier but wasn’t sure. I’ve marked them with Bone Spirit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xiuyu listened quietly from the side, his face showing a puzzled expression, not expecting such a twist to occur with Su Changxing and the others, nor that this kid Xu Wenfeng could be so sly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing thought for a moment, nodding, \"Alright, the two of us will head out now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also noticed Zhu Wenwu’s status wasn’t great; the No-Man’s Land affects people in various ways, and external factors were merely catalysts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of joy appeared on Xu Wenfeng’s face as he ran outside with Su Changxing, holding a short knife in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the base, Su Changxing instructed, \"Run at full Speed, don’t worry about me keeping up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenfeng’s combat ability was among the weakest of the original seven, nearly last, but due to his position, his body was incredibly nimble, and his speed swift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenfeng nodded, his body gradually emitting green light as half of it turned ghostly. In a flash, he sprinted out, transforming into a spectral glow dashing down the street.\u003C\u002Fp>",1142,"2026-06-05T22:29:48.975Z",1,"novelbin.me","ed473731febfb35bba0e836a03722ef7787331d8ca27216f3d026c775ac0061f","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-338","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-336",584,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-game-i-have-portable-store-cover.jpg"]
