Global Game: I Have Portable Store-Chapter 433 - 19: Doomsday Shop

Many people fell to the ground under the light’s illumination, but did not die, falling into a deep sleep instead.

[Mist Lamp: Tier Nine, appears where people’s hearts are confused, devouring fear and confusion.]

"Why did this thing appear? Is it because of the Black Fog?"

Su Changxing drew his handgun and shot at the "lamppost".

With the sound of shattering glass, the lamppost’s bulb was pierced by the bullet, and a faint mist enveloped it.

As more and more mist spread, it quickly vanished without leaving a trace, as if it had never been there.

Su Changxing led two people down the street, then snapped his fingers crisply, waking up the people on the ground who looked bewildered.

"Master, what was that thing?"

Zhu Xin Xue asked curiously.

Su Changxing shook his head and said:

"Not sure, it might be something brought by the Black Fog or something that comes with changes in the world... An ordinary world may not give birth to monsters, but an extraordinary world surely will."

Zhu Wenwu was stunned and said dumbly:

"Wasn’t that thing a demon? A lamppost with legs, that’s just too weird."

"You could say it’s a demon too."

Su Changxing nodded in agreement.

The sky had just darkened.

They arrived at Zhou An’s place, where many houses were dark, abandoned by their inhabitants during the day to go elsewhere.

Opening the door, the lights inside were still on, the TV screen flickered with static, and unfinished food lay on the table, but no one was there.

"Where is everyone?" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Su Changxing frowned, realizing something was wrong; they wouldn’t have left without a reason.

Zhu Wenwu looked around and analyzed: "The balcony window was broken, someone came in from outside."

With "True Knowledge", Su Changxing scanned the tracks on the ground and determined that Zhou An and others had just left, and that Zhou An likely ran out from the balcony, pursued by someone.

"Who could it be?"

Su Changxing immediately said, "You two wait here, I’ll go check it out."

As soon as he finished speaking, he vaulted over the balcony and pursued, running a short distance before seeing Zhou An limping towards him with a Broken Sword, a noticeable wound on his thigh seeping blood.

"What happened?" Su Changxing asked.

Zhou An wiped his face and rubbed his nose, a bit confused, "I’m not too sure, these people suddenly barged in and attacked me, thankfully my skills were superior."

Su Changxing nodded and said, "What about the others? I just came by and saw no one in the house."

Zhou An thought for a moment and said, "No one was hurt, I just led the attackers away, they should be nearby."

Su Changxing and Zhou An then returned to observe the bodies of the attackers, noticing several of them had obviously enhanced physiques, likely people returned from the apocalypse, including even an Extraordinary.

The Extraordinary died miserably, a rifle still in his hand, killed easily by a Flying Saber from Zhou An.

Without any identifiable features, it was impossible to discern who they were.

Zhou An grinned and said: "Their goal was to capture me, but they underestimated my strength, got outsmarted."

When they returned, Wang Liang was crouching by the roadside, peeking over curiously.

"Brother Wang, it’s over now."

Zhou An waved and called out.

Wang Liang approached, smiled awkwardly, and said:

"I’m sorry, I couldn’t be of much help."

Zhou An patted his chest and laughed: "With me around, what help do we need?"

As they walked back, Zhou An saw Zhu Wenwu looking excited, patting him on the shoulder, saying: "Haha, Wenwu, we meet again, it’s great, really great."

Zhu Wenwu smiled alongside and said: "Yeah, I’m really happy too."

Zhou An looked at him thoughtfully and nodded, "As expected of you."

"······"

Zhu Wenwu raised an eyebrow, not understanding what he meant.

At this moment, Yi Yaqi was even more frightened, sitting dazed on the sofa, losing her usual demeanor as the student council president.

In contrast, Huang Keying remained calm, frying over ten steaks upstairs.

"Let’s eat something first, haha, Huang Keying just made these steaks, they look pretty good."

Zhou An came down from upstairs with a steaming hot tray, his mouth still smeared with dark sauce.

Su Changxing tried a piece and found it truly delicious, turned his head towards Zhou An, and said:

"I’ll prepare to summon the Doomsday Shop later, see what we can get."

Zhou An wiped the sauce from his face with a paper towel and said: "That seems to need a lot of points."

Su Changxing shrugged and said: "No worries, I’ve got plenty of points."

Zhou An nodded: "True enough."

Summoning the Doomsday Shop requires a full ten thousand points, something some people might not have in total, but for Su Changxing, it’s manageable.

Besides, he previously took out those Black Fog World people, earning over three hundred thousand points, including those from discounted sales and Doomsday System rewards.

As the clock struck midnight, Su Changxing stood on the roof and spent ten thousand points to summon the Doomsday Shop.

[Doomsday Shop arrival estimated in thirty minutes]

A pillar of light visible only to Players rose from their rooftop.

"Why is there even such a thing, isn’t it a rip-off?"

Zhou An couldn’t help but complain as he looked at the bright white pillar of light.

Meanwhile, several other pillars of light appeared from different directions in the city, indicating others had also exchanged for the Doomsday Shop.

Another pillar of light was very close, just a few kilometers away.

Su Changxing pondered briefly, then exchanged four more times, estimating that the resources in one Doomsday Shop might be limited, better to summon several.

The Doomsday Shop can only be redeemed between midnight and two AM each day.

Soon after.

An additional four pillars of light rose above them, observed closely, each pillar composed of countless tiny light particles, moving irregularly in space, like swarms of variously sized fireflies.

Zhu Xin Xue opened her eyes wide, looking at the sky and murmured: "So beautiful."

The others glanced around at one another, unable to see anything.

"Master, did you summon four more?"

Zhu Xin Xue exclaimed in surprise.

Su Changxing nodded and said: "The resources in one shop should be limited."

She glanced at the thousands of points on her phone, and looked up earnestly: "Master, you really have money."

Su Changxing pondered a moment and said: "It’s okay, just a little more than you."

Yi Yaqi looked around curiously at Zhu Xin Xue’s hands, puzzled: "Xiao Xin Xue, do you have something in your hands?"

Zhu Xin Xue nodded, then shook her head and said: "An imaginary phone."

"······"

Yi Yaqi was completely baffled, an imaginary phone? What is that?

At this point, Zhou An realized and said: "Are we being too ostentatious?"

Su Changxing crossed his arms and pondered: "Buying something shouldn’t count as being flashy, don’t you think?"

Zhou An raised an eyebrow: "Ha, is that so?"
