As I said before, even in this world, our abilities might be beyond your imagination. I always prefer reasoning before resorting to force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s really overbearing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing squinted slightly, feeling quite annoyed by the other’s condescending attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucky Child: If that’s the case, I’m afraid we won’t be able to talk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marquis Hei: Suit yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing rubbed his nose, not really believing the other could find him. It’s just a bluff; who can’t do that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But could Marquis Hei be one of Chenxi’s people? This domineering style does seem a bit like them; the phrase \"a crooked stick will have a crooked shadow\" comes to mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Marquis Hei might very well be a high-ranking member of Chenxi, but he knew too little about Chenxi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I still need to be careful. Someone’s already managed to kill a Screamer. Though the Extraordinary are an upgrade from superpower users, it doesn’t mean superpower users are weak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing reminded himself not to be careless. Even though he was now an Extraordinary, his actual combat power was just so-so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Climbing out of the window, Su Changxing descended to the floor below. This time, he was much more cautious, no longer recklessly charging forward, but choosing to use a bow and arrow to slowly clear a path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it’s better to play it safe. The previous approach caused too much commotion. If another Screamer is drawn, I won’t be able to go anywhere tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to previous wastefulness, Su Changxing had only fifty-six arrows left, probably just enough to reach the next Mysterious Shop, and he still needed to keep some arrows as a backup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he could only shoot one arrow and retrieve it, but fortunately, the arrows from the shop were of high quality, each one could be reused at least three times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking about halfway, Su Changxing smelled a strong stench of blood but didn’t see any other bodies around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This smell of blood... quite a few people must have died.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing judged, observing his surroundings and noticing there were fewer zombies, suggesting frequent human activity and the blood stench was close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing felt a drop of unknown liquid fall on his face, wiping it off with his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s blood, coming from above?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up and saw some liquid trickling down a crack in the wall. After some hesitation, he climbed up to the second floor, peering inside through a broken window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strong stench of blood overwhelmed him, and Su Changxing saw a horrific scene: dismembered bodies everywhere, with blood pooling in the corners and seeping through cracks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There must be twenty or thirty bodies. Who did this? It definitely wasn’t zombies, maybe other humans?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing felt a chill, unable to imagine who would do such a thing. Calming himself, he estimated the bodies had been dead for some time, and the killer was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Climbing into the second floor, he examined the bodies and found they shared a common feature: a large hole in the chest where the heart had been removed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also searched around but didn’t find any cell phones on these people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a psychopathic killer, truly vicious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing’s eye twitched. He originally thought it was done by some monster, but with the phones missing, it was clearly the work of other humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After searching around, Su Changxing discovered that the supplies these people had were still there, not taken by the murderer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Was it just to rob points? But supplies can be exchanged for points too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing’s mind felt stuck, unable to make sense of it. He must have missed a key point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This group’s size and resources were comparable to Huang Biao’s, with ample supplies of biscuits, jerky, canned food, instant noodles, and bottled water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was evident this group had decent strength but was completely wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing posted a thread intending to sell these items, but then saw that Huang Biao had sent him a private message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartless Beast (Lucky Child): Brother, I found some guns at the police station before, but they’re all unusable. I can give you two unusable handguns or give you points. But if you want points, I don’t have that many right now. I can give you 900 points first, and 600 more tomorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing certainly wasn’t interested in useless handguns, so he replied: Points, please.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartless Beast (Lucky Child): Okay, I’ll send you 900 points now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Biao also sent a private message to another one of Su Changxing’s ids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartless Beast (Please call me a good person): Where are you now? I heard you went out after midnight. Be careful alone. I heard some reckless person was running wildly on the street, attracting an Undead Tide and a Screamer. Many people on the forum are condemning that person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reckless?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing nodded, confident that it definitely wasn’t about him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please call me a good person: Hmm, I’ll be careful to avoid that reckless person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartless Beast (Please call me a good person): Also, if you find extra water, you can prioritize selling it to me. We’re really short on water right now, and I can trade you some food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please call me a good person: I happened to scavenge some water, but I only need points. You can exchange it with me for points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartless Beast (Please call me a good person): Brother, I’m still owing others points. Can I owe it to you for now? I should be able to pay you back by tomorrow or the day after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please call me a good person: Sure, I have twelve bottles of water, 1000 points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartless Beast (Please call me a good person): That’s a lot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please call me a good person: Just lucky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartless Beast (Please call me a good person): You’re really lucky, thanks, brother. I’ve left the room for you, come by whenever you want.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing sent twelve bottles of water to Huang Biao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although selling the water on the forum could earn more points and there’d be no credit issues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was willing, just because Huang Biao’s group was willing to take in a little girl like Zhu Xin Xue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many groups on the forum explicitly said in their recruitment posts that they don’t want the elderly, children, or women. It’s harsh but realistic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing wasn’t essentially different from most people, selfish but not completely so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he was having a hard time himself, he wouldn’t give a penny to others, but when he was relatively well-off, he’d show some generosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s like in the current world, people from difficult family situations often exhibit stinginess and miserliness, while those from relatively well-off backgrounds tend to be gentle and tolerant; it’s determined by material conditions and human nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing posted a thread on the forum, selling other supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucky Child: Scavenged some supplies, first come, first served.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Biscuits (expired), twelve bags, 80 points\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jerky (expired), seven bags, 200 points\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instant noodles, twelve bags, 300 points\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Canned food, eight cans, 400 points\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reply 1: Even after becoming Extraordinary, Lucky Child stays true to himself, still a diligent merchant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reply 2: Please, Lucky Child, sell me some food this time. I couldn’t buy any last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reply 3: Lucky Child said it’s first come, first served. Don’t break the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reply 4: Can you tell us how to become Extraordinary?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reply 5: +1, I’m curious too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>······\u003C\u002Fp>",1274,"2026-06-05T22:29:48.974Z",1,"novelbin.me","c720f23730f80720724cf354da6ff3ade4eb24b9bd6e8c9d76cd9e32a7cb9b6f","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-62","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-60",584,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-game-i-have-portable-store-cover.jpg"]
