Global Game: I Have Portable Store-Chapter 286 - 285: Half Dead
Blood-red veined vines emerged from the ruins, entwining themselves before the crystal creatures. They multiplied rapidly, forming a "wall" of vines.
A crystal creature, headless and crawling swiftly with only limbs, tried to leap over the vines but was pulled down by a few strands, crashing heavily to the ground.
These vines were exceptionally resilient, able to firmly lock these massive creatures in place, but found themselves temporarily at a loss on how to overcome them.
These entities couldn’t be considered as living creatures; they had no fatal weaknesses, resembling stones in a pit - foul and hard.
Half were halted, while the other half charged.
The Lady of the House seemed extremely petite before these monsters, akin to a little cat.
A black shadow magnified in front of the Lady of the House, stretching longer, larger than these massive crystal creatures. It looked like a cat, a gigantic Black Cat, opening a bloody huge mouth, revealing slender, sharp fangs.
The space experienced subtle fluctuations.
One bite.
Three gigantic crystal creatures were swallowed whole by the "Black Cat", disappearing into thin air. Subsequently, the "Black Cat" seemed satisfied, licking its lips, retreating back into the shadow of the Lady of the House.
The Lady of the House’s lips curved into a charming smile. With a wave of her hand, a purple mist floated through the air, halting six crystal creatures before her, as if they lost their momentum.
"My darlings, go kill them~"
She gently smiled, appearing carefree as the rain diagonally passed by her, avoiding her.
Zhong Jueqing said solemnly, "This woman has too many means, too strong. The verdict is already clear... we should leave immediately."
They had gathered enough information here; intelligence was crucial and could have unimaginable effects.
Su Changxing half-crouched, rain streaming over his face, slipping into his eyes, swirling in the sockets, saying in a deep voice:
"Not necessarily. He probably won’t fight battles without a chance of winning, and certainly won’t lose so thoroughly. We’re not in a hurry."
As long as the battle below hasn’t ended, they are relatively safe, much like a small fishbone caught in the throats of these Hunters.
Zhong Jueqing glanced at him through sunglasses, surprised, "Hmm? You know that Hunter?"
"Met him once."
Su Changxing nodded, contemplating, "He’s an extremely meticulous person, feels like a seasoned Politician, won’t act unless he’s sure of a win."
Zhong Jueqing didn’t doubt Su Changxing’s words, somewhat relaxed, murmured softly:
"I feel these Hunters surely know how to combat corpses’ mutations, after all, they’ve lived here for quite a while."
Su Changxing reflected and said, "Hmm? That’s also your intuition."
Zhong Jueqing said earnestly, "Yes, my intuition is always very accurate, trust me."
Su Changxing was silent for a moment, thinking the Security Bureau leader seemed to just act directly, however, would this really work?
Zhong Jueqing noticed Su Changxing’s silence and continued, "These should be the upper hierarchy among the Hunters. If we aren’t mistaken, we just need to capture one alive."
Su Changxing rubbed his forehead, retorted, "Do you think we can manage it? Can we capture one alive?"
Zhong Jueqing, despite the heavy rain, focused on the battlefield, his face serene, steadfastly said:
"You know, we’re out of time. This might be the last chance, or say, the only chance... I’ve already directed all viable forces of the Security Bureau towards our position. It’s either success or martyrdom."
Success or martyrdom...
It’s like the final struggle of someone driven to despair, the hope might be slim, but there’s no choice, at least for Zhong Jueqing, there was no other option.
Su Changxing was rational, possessing a rational personality. At this moment, he’d find Zhong Jueqing’s decision overly aggressive, too reckless, leaving himself no retreat.
Perhaps indeed there’s no time left.
The mutations have already started, by the time a mass outbreak occurs, it’ll be too late. Though there are still billions, eventually, they’ll watch helplessly as others perish.
He was quiet for a seemingly long time, feeling the powerful heartbeat, but actually only a few seconds passed, precisely two and three-thirds seconds.
To an Extraordinary, it’s a long time, and especially for Su Changxing.
During this time, he could simulate the shooting process based on the surrounding environment hundreds of times, he could use a semi-automatic pistol, fire a barrage of bullets, and hit accurately.
"Let’s try."
Su Changxing inhaled deeply, revealed a smile, "I feel there’s some chance of success, let’s give it a try... If it doesn’t work, I’ll escape."
Zhong Jueqing looked at this not very "determined" youth, using a gloved hand, patted his shoulder, said:
"My ’intuition’ tells me we will succeed, and even if I die, I won’t let you die..."
Intuition...
Su Changxing’s mouth twitched subtly, dispassionately said, "Actually, what you said isn’t convincing."
"Is it?"
Zhong Jueqing thought back to their conversation, said, "I think it’s quite persuasive, you’ve been persuaded."
Wonderful, worthy of being the Security Bureau leader with such confidence, no wonder he became the leader, while Qin Decang remained just a captain.
Su Changxing slightly sarcastically said, "Maybe if you hadn’t said it, I’d be more agreeable."
Tonight’s unexpected incidents led things completely astray from Su Changxing’s initial plan, initiating a wild adventure with a stranger.
Meanwhile, he glanced at Zhu Wenwu’s transmitted team information on his phone; up to now, nearly half of their teams have lost contact.
These teams are mostly weaker ones, probably led by captains who weren’t from Team A.
Though anticipated, seeing it still sank Su Changxing’s heart.
There’s some good news too; apparently, two new Extraordinaries emerged from Team A just tonight.
This implies their continued emergence of Extraordinaries during this period from Team A.
Zhu Wenwu and Huang Biao’s location is nearby; Su Changxing also had them approach to prepare for the confrontation.
The future situation is unpredictable; ultimately, it hinges on the internal struggle outcome of these Hunters. If both sides suffer losses, it’d be ideal, greatly enhancing their chances.
The crystal creatures controlled by the Lady of the House shattered one by one during the charge; some form of energy from within them was dismantled, turned into a pile of dull stones.
While the crystal creatures wrapped in vines were pierced, caught limb by limb, their movements gradually reduced, resembling insects trapped in a spider’s web.
