Global Game: I Have Portable Store-Chapter 278 - 277: If All Goes As Expected

These hunters, though few in number, held an absolute advantage, their individual strength far surpassing the members of the Security Bureau.

The overall power of the Extraordinary was evident, and unless a superpower user had an exceedingly powerful ability, it was hard to compare to them.

The people on the Security Bureau’s side were fighting desperately, and it appeared to be a back-and-forth battle for now.

The man with a pierced abdomen trembled slightly, gradually growing stiff, the blue light in his eyes dimming as he clamped onto the opponent’s body, biting the opponent’s neck like an evil ghost.

It was no easy feat for him to singlehandedly suppress one hunter, alleviating a lot of pressure for the others, but this couldn’t last long.

Another hunter wielding a machete deftly beheaded a tall and thin Security Bureau member, approached him, raised his weapon, and slashed down.

At the critical moment, the man’s face twisted with ferocity, biting harder, neither dodging nor flinching, determined to kill the person beneath him even if it meant his death.

"Swoosh~"

A sharp gust of wind swept by, sending the hunter’s arm flying high as if severed by a sharp weapon, yet there was no one else around him.

"Who?"

The hunter clutched his arm, his expression distorted and retreating in panic, looking around.

The sudden change disrupted the battlefield’s rhythm, drawing the attention of others.

The hunters assumed it was some means of these Otherworld humans, while the Security Bureau was bewildered, not understanding what had happened.

The man looked up at the scene before him, still puzzled as to why his opponent’s arm had suddenly severed, feeling as if blessed by the heavens.

The next moment, his teeth completely severed the neck of the person beneath him, blood burst forth, flooding into his mouth, rushing down his throat, its metallic taste inciting an unusual excitement.

He succeeded in taking down a hunter; even in death, it was well worth it.

The machete hit the stone tiles with a crisp sound.

The hunter seemingly saw a slender figure rushing towards him at great speed, a chill emanating, and another arm was severed.

He didn’t even have time to scream as his body was sliced into pieces, falling to the ground, blood spreading from the gaps in the stone tiles.

It was eerily strange, as a hunter met such a gruesome end in front of everyone.

Encountered a ghost?

Everyone, whether members of the Security Bureau or hunters, harbored this thought.

This world harbored unknown things that even hunters couldn’t comprehend. After all, they only survived in this world in obscurity.

Tao Yi didn’t stop, moving on to slash at another nearby hunter, who noticed but couldn’t react fast enough. The scythe blade pierced his chest.

With the sound of bones cracking, a massive outburst of blood exploded from his chest, hoisting him into the air, then heavily slamming him onto the ground.

A giant scythe was momentarily highlighted by the sprayed blood.

The body was sliced into two sections.

Things were not looking right.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

A hunter clad in a gray jacket decisively commanded.

"Leave? Did I say you could leave?"

A soft laugh echoed in the night sky.

A young man in a black coat slowly approached from afar, his eyes darkly shimmering, exuding a profound aura.

The remaining three hunters’ expressions darkened, feeling the oppressive presence from Su Changxing—it was clear, an Upper Rank suppressing a Lower Rank.

High Ability User!

Could this be someone from those rebels?

The hunter in the gray jacket slightly bowed his head, respectfully saying:

"Sir, the current situation would be best addressed collectively, and by principle, we do not engage in conflict."

Although two were killed, the jacket-clad hunter still spoke kindly, hoping to persuade Su Changxing this way.

They didn’t believe Su Changxing could be an Otherworld human—too absurd, simply impossible.

Su Changxing’s lips curled, as if hearing something amusing, and he said:

"Perhaps you misunderstand; I might be addressing the collective matter."

While speaking, Tao Yi slashed at the opposing side.

The hunter’s pupils dilated, body twisting bizarrely, narrowly avoiding the strike, as if finally seeing Tao Yi’s presence.

Without hesitation, the three hunters turned and fled, very decisively.

The man with the pierced abdomen roared: "Block those bastards, don’t let them escape."

Several beams of electrical light shot out from another person, targeting these hunters, meteor-like, accurately striking their backs.

Even without much power, it carried a paralyzing effect that slowed their speed.

Su Changxing crushed a card, waving one hand, causing a force field to spread from him as the center, enveloping the hunters.

This was Geng Yong’s ability, Cage Force Field, capable of impeding the opponent’s actions and optimally preventing escape.

The force field’s influence wasn’t vast, but at crucial moments, it could decide the battle.

The speed of these hunters slowed considerably, forcing them to turn back and fight, but with Tao Yi’s involvement, they stood no chance.

Su Changxing didn’t engage, standing by watching these hunters perish one by one—no need for him to act; it would be a mere waste of bullets.

The last hunter died amidst screams, leaving silence behind.

The man with the pierced abdomen staggered over, feeding himself something, wore a grateful expression, and politely said:

"Thank you, brother, for your timely rescue. I am Squad Leader Hao Yi of the Security Bureau...if not for you today, even victory would have come at a heavy cost."

Su Changxing eyed him, thinking, and said: "Without me, you surely wouldn’t have won, possibly ending up annihilated."

"······"

Hao Yi was momentarily stunned but accepted the truth, sighed, and said:

"Ah...Indeed, without you, brother, we would certainly have been annihilated today."

The other Security Bureau members remained silent, maintaining a certain vigilance—Su Changxing’s strange methods had startled them.

Su Changxing smiled, patting his shoulder, saying: "Ha, that wasn’t really my intention. Helping each other is as it should be, expecting no return, expecting no return."

For some reason, he now had the habit of patting others’ shoulders, a peculiar habit.

No return?

Hao Yi’s expression stiffened, feeling Su Changxing was emphasizing, whispered: "Um, someone just slashed my shoulder."

"······"

Su Changxing withdrew his hand, apologetically smiled: "Ha, didn’t notice."

Hao Yi’s physique was indeed remarkable, withstanding such significant injury as if unaffected, likely nearing the limits of what ordinary people could achieve.

Hao Yi adjusted his demeanor, saying: "Brother, if you have any requests, feel free to say. If within our ability, it’s no problem."

Su Changxing’s lips curled, asking: "Why are you all here? It’s still quite far from the Security Bureau’s gathering point."

Hao Yi didn’t expect Su Changxing to ask that question, paused, then said:

"It’s not really a secret; these hunters were mobilizing, all converging this way, so we came to investigate the situation."

Su Changxing nodded thoughtfully, saying: "It’s dangerous, isn’t it? Surely not just you few; your captain should be here as well."

He had some understanding of the Security Bureau; even captains had considerable strength.

Hao Yi gazed at the sky, estimating the time, and said: "If nothing goes wrong, they should be arriving soon."
