Global Game: I Have Portable Store-Chapter 312 - 308: Encounter

Zhou An suddenly revealed a shocked expression: "No wonder... no wonder..."

Zhu Wenwu glanced at him and silently said: "Isn’t this something to be expected?"

Su Changxing looked at Zhu Wenwu’s serious demeanor, as if remembering he had mentioned this to him before, then reminded:

"The zombie activity around here is a bit unusual, stay alert."

Zhu Wenwu nodded and said: "I also feel these zombies are somewhat sluggish, compared to what we encountered before, like... during the daytime."

In his vision, a blood-red dagger was jumping among the zombies, as if searching for something.

Nearby was some kind of park area, with sparse houses and relatively open views. Through the night, you could see the distant zombies indifferent to the situation over here.

In fact, at night these zombies’ perception greatly increases, making it easy to form an undead tide.

"This feeling seems familiar."

Su Changxing recalled the undead tide that gathered before Shield Company, it felt the same, except these zombies weren’t gathering together.

Is the Lady of the House nearby?

This is a sort of intuition, but he trusted his intuition very much.

Su Changxing placed one hand on the revolver, continued leading the two forward quickly, while signaling Zhu Wenwu to perceive the surrounding conditions.

If the Lady of the House was indeed nearby, Zhu Wenwu should be able to sense something.

Half an hour later, the three passed through this area without any anomalies occurring. Just as Su Changxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, a huge cat shadow appeared on the ground.

"What’s that?"

Zhou An instantly sensed the anomaly too, noticing this suddenly appearing shadow, he gripped the flying saber with both hands and crouched to look around.

It is the Lady of the House indeed.

Su Changxing’s heart sank, he drew the revolver with one hand and raised the pistol in the other, looking at the figure standing in the middle of the street not far away, said lightly:

"So, how did you find my location?"

The Lady of the House walked forward step by step, emerging from the shadows, wearing a tight-fitting dress, a purple lace hat, and towering over two meters tall.

Her face appeared extra pale under the moonlight, she revealed a smile and slowly said: "Hmm? Not surprised, you knew I was nearby?"

Then, she took a deep breath: "So it’s really you, heh, the thief who stole from my home."

Stealing things?

Is she referring to the head?

Su Changxing didn’t act rashly, facing an existence like the Lady of the House, he lacked confidence.

Zhou An, unfazed by the person before him, shouted: "Stealing? The world is like this now, where does stealing even exist, right Brother Su?"

Zhu Wenwu’s face twitched, and he placed a hand on Zhou An’s shoulder: "You better not speak, this person is terrifying."

Facing the Lady of the House, he felt a palpitating fear, like his heart was beating extra hard beyond normal, his body’s functions inexplicably affected.

The Lady of the House glanced at the two without care, continued saying: "You seem to be fearless... there are indeed a few interesting people in your world, you’re one of them."

Su Changxing took a slow breath and seriously said: "If you want to kill me, I’m not surprised; but has your wound healed yet? You sure are quick to come after me."

Pettiness?

The Lady’s eye subtly twitched, as if suppressing a breath, said: "Believe it or not, it’s pure coincidence we met here; and to say further, I should thank the two of you, without you, the one surviving that day wouldn’t have been me."

Is that so?

Su Changxing didn’t expect his and Zhong Jueqing’s actions might affect Teng Beng, but whether this influenced the outcome was still unknown.

"Does it make a difference? Besides, it’s not important."

Su Changxing chuckled, speaking unhurriedly.

Though he couldn’t steal the Lady’s ability, he could use True Knowledge to obtain important information, the longer the delay, the more advantageous for him.

[Unknown creature: shaped like a cat shadow, possesses powerful devouring ability, low-level spirituality...]

[Blank body: A projection-like thing, possesses entity but lacks conventional combat strength.]

The Lady of the House appraised Su Changxing, laughing: "You seem to have deep misunderstanding with me, it must be about that old guy Teng Beng, you’re heading outside the city?"

Su Changxing stared at her, lightly saying: "No, just wandering around... false body, are you wary of me?"

The Lady of the House licked her lips and laughed surprisingly: "Facing an adversary who can use firearms in this world, I must be cautious."

The Lady’s wounds should still be serious, otherwise she wouldn’t be wasting words.

Su Changxing thought at this time finding the Lady’s true form and eliminating her might be better, but it was not his primary goal, and her real form had likely left here.

Those powerful often are cautious, the careless wouldn’t survive long enough to become strong.

Su Changxing thought for a moment and said: "Seems you were frightened by Teng Beng."

The Lady of the House’s expression chilled, fiercely saying: "You’re really unlovable, then wait here and die in our world."

The black cat shadow suddenly enlarged, burst from the ground, opening its bloody mouth at Su Changxing.

Such a massive creature abruptly appearing startled Zhou An and the others, this kind of monster was too fantastical, unreal.

"Boom~"

Su Changxing raised his hand quickly, with a loud bang, the silver bullet flew at the "black cat".

As before, the bullet along with sparks disappeared at the mouth of the "black cat", no disturbance occurred, and the "black cat" shrunk back, curled to the ground.

"Trying to escape?"

Su Changxing fired another shot.

The ground exploded, leaving a big hole; the "black cat" and the Lady vanished without a trace, surrounded by the sound of zombies’ wave, forming a large undead tide at their location.

Zhu Wenwu looked at the hole and said: "What was that thing, like a shadow."

Su Changxing shook his head, said: "Don’t know, let’s leave here first."

Due to the "black cat" presence, he hadn’t let Tao Yi approach the Lady for a sneak attack, fearing the "black cat" might swallow Tao Yi in one bite.

However, the "black cat" devouring ability seemed limited, the Lady seemed to attempt a trial attack through "black cat", but was pushed back by his bullet.

Su Changxing commanded: "I’ll clear the path ahead, you two watch zombies coming from the sides, keep up."

Su Changxing wielded a steel saber, closed his eyes, rushed forward, Tao Yi fell back, severing zombies from behind. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

After advancing to Tier Eight, his personal power and speed increase wasn’t substantial, but in Deep Dream status, it greatly enhanced efficiency, far surpassing Tao Yi.
