How many of them have we taken down?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not sure, maybe the fortieth or fiftieth. We need to return to resupply ammunition; we’re no match for them barehanded.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flesh of these monsters seemed like it was covered in a layer of steel, with weaker firearms unable to even break their defenses. Heavy machine guns were the best choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The military truck slowly approached Su Changxing, and the soldiers on the truck saw him and shouted, \"There are quite a few monsters ahead, you’d better not go there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ha, leave the ones ahead to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing maintained a smile, waving the hand that held the pistol, wearing white gloves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the pistol in Su Changxing’s hand, the soldiers became more solemn; a bullet could leave a hole in any of their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet they didn’t say much and drove away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This morning, the government issued a decree to lift the ban on firearms, which meant that ordinary people could also carry guns, and they planned to gradually distribute firearms to the public over time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was difficult for the army alone to hold back these monsters for an extended period; the only solution was to enhance the combat power of civilians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this might lead to other issues, it was generally a good approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a far distance, Su Changxing saw a few armored, ground-crawling, human-like monsters shooting from afar with pistols, bullets splattering out as if they were free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, pistol bullets were indeed free now, as he didn’t need to buy them from a discount store; the Security Bureau could provide them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, revolver bullets were specially made and still could only be bought from the discount store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two bullets continuously pierced through one of the monsters, spraying crimson blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These monsters suddenly had blood; before, they were in a semi-illusory state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After two shots from Su Changxing, its armor shattered, and its body quickly collapsed, falling to the ground with blood spreading across the gray-white stone slabs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its body did not disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing strode over and sliced open its chest with a knife, revealing a transparent but small crystal core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the Extraordinary Crystal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned down to pick up the bloody crystal, realizing it was indeed an Extraordinary Crystal, but incomplete, like a semi-finished product.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You killed that monster. What is that thing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tender voice suddenly called from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing turned around and saw a little boy crouched in a corner, wearing a white robe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His presence was so faint that even Su Changxing didn’t notice him at first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A superpower?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing looked at him and smiled faintly, \"It’s very dangerous here, where are your family members?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy was silent for a moment and then said in a low voice, \"Family, what is that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something’s odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing sensed something unusual about him, suspecting that he wasn’t an ordinary human, and said, \"Anyway, you should leave here first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy frowned slightly, retorting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This left Su Changxing a bit stumped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, wherever you came from, go back there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing chuckled lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy looked up at the sky, showing an innocent smile, \"I’ve always been here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something’s wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something’s wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing sensed something unusual about him too, but without immediately taking action, he cautiously retreated slowly. It’s best to be careful around unknown presences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy watched as Su Changxing retreated and smiled, saying, \"You have the aura of Chaos, it’s very dangerous, you’d better not go outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aura of Chaos?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing was puzzled, licking his lips as he asked, \"What do you mean?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy remained silent, not replying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing retreated quite far, unable to feel the boy’s presence anymore, but could still see him squatting there, unmoving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is this thing? Did the black mist bring it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing mused on it, having no other immediate plan, and decided to send a message to cooperate with the military to seal off this area first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hulking blond man arrived with people at the location, seeing Su Changxing’s cordial face:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, Leader, I’m Luo Haotian, originally from the tenth squad, and as soon as I got your message, I rushed over from nearby.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, Su Changxing had already removed his clown mask, returning to his original appearance, and nodded, \"There is a special presence over there. I want you to cooperate with the military and seal off the area; don’t let anyone else enter to avoid bigger problems.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Haotian didn’t ask why, patting his chest, \"Alright, Leader, leave it to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the barricade was up and the area sealed, that little boy still squatted there, occasionally turning his head to smile at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing hesitated for a moment and walked over again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy saw him and said, \"Oh, you’re back again. It feels like a long time has passed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, not much time had passed, maybe just about an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing thought for a moment and asked, feeling that the boy knew something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy looked up at the sky again and said, \"Waiting for someone. Someone said they would come back to find me, so I have to wait for them to come over, or they’ll have a hard time finding me if I leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing scrutinized the little boy again, noting that his attire didn’t resemble modern clothing at all. It was somewhat exotic, with a hint of ancient style, and he wore a jade necklace around his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How long have you been waiting?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy showed a thoughtful expression and said, \"Probably not long; it’s just that the sky was dark before, and now it’s bright again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the name of the person you’re waiting for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"... I kind of forgot. His surname is Hong, and he always carried a long sword.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the person the little boy was waiting for wasn’t from modern times, and he probably wasn’t either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Su Changxing didn’t think the boy was a ghost or anything, because the \"Pastoral Spirit\" didn’t react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Squad Leader Luo, what’s your leader talking to?\" A military officer watched the scene and couldn’t help but ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Haotian was briefly stunned, then said solemnly, \"I’m not sure, but there’s definitely something. Our leader is a powerful Extraordinary, capable of seeing things that are invisible to us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer nodded, half-understanding, believing that firearms couldn’t solve this thing at all since it couldn’t even be seen, how could it be solved?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing had no ideas for the moment, so he just said, \"Then wait for him here, I have other things to attend to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy tilted his head to look at him and nodded, \"You’d better stay here; it’s dangerous outside, and you’ll easily be targeted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy looked at him but said nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>",1212,"2026-06-05T22:29:48.974Z",1,"novelbin.me","0ffbcc6e3c64150e5e6dd8763913d5698244e664d715cbc2aac38c7af510138b","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-440","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-217",584,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-game-i-have-portable-store-cover.jpg"]
