Global Game: I Have Portable Store

Chapter 178: Leap


So in that case, the items in the discount store essentially exist in reality, collected by the discount store.

This is essentially a transaction.

Jin ate a piece of chocolate cake and said to himself, "You sure have a lot of things in your backpack, do you have this?"

"You guess."

Su Changxing sliced off another zombie crawling out from the "pile of corpses," quite like a game of whack-a-mole, except these were zombies.

"Hmph."

Jin finished the last bite of cake, licked his fingers, leaned out to look at the zombies below, and said, "Hmm, I can blow them all up."

Su Changxing said without hesitation, "No, it will only attract more zombies, let's wait a bit, maybe the zombies will calm down and disperse later."

Maybe because of the Blood Moon, these zombies were very cohesive and purposeful.

Their current goal was to eliminate Su Changxing and his companion.

Fortunately, there weren't any Screamers during the daytime. As long as the building remained intact, they didn't have much to worry about.

Jin sat on the ground, intently tinkering with something, as if he were making something, maybe a Hand Grenade, or something else.

Su Changxing stood by the "pile of corpses," clearing the zombies that kept emerging.

The afternoon should have been when the sun was at its peak, but because of the red mist in the sky, it felt neither bright nor hot; it was gloomy and damp, like being in a foggy primordial forest.

Su Changxing wasn't a particularly cheerful person and liked gloomy, slightly cool weather, but this red mist was another matter.

Before long.

Su Changxing noticed that there were zombies actually climbing up the outer wall of the building. They weren't Extraordinary Zombies, but they had the ability to climb.

"Is it because these zombies have accelerated evolution in the red mist, that there are so many climbing zombies?"

He pulled out the Shadow Bow from his backpack and shot down the climbing zombies one by one.

The number of climbing zombies wasn't large, only about a dozen or so, and they weren't fast. From a distance, Su Changxing shot them down.

After another dozen minutes, Su Changxing clearly felt the building was continuously trembling, seemingly unstable.

The outer walls on the ground floor had largely collapsed, and the internal situation of the building was unclear.

Jin also noticed, widening his eyes, and said, "This building is going to collapse."

Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, "If things keep going this way, it might collapse."

Both of them acted nonchalant as if they were bystanders and not the ones on the building.

Su Changxing prepared to take Jin down.

At this point, Huang Biao sent a message saying there was an extendable iron ladder.

The larger the item's size, the slower the transmission speed.

A few minutes later, a red-painted steel-framed iron ladder appeared on the ground.

"Can really find something like this."

Su Changxing tested the hardness of the ladder, estimating it should meet the requirements. He extended one end of the ladder five meters outside the rooftop and locked the other end on the railing using multiple nylon ropes for secure fastening.

Jin looked excitedly at the opposite building, saying, "Shall we jump over?"

Su Changxing nodded and said, "Yes, that's the only way. Staying here isn't an option."

He could jump over ten meters with all his might. With the five-meter extension of the ladder, it should be possible, though he worried if the ladder could withstand his push-off force.

Then he padded some rags at the contact point between the edge of the rooftop and the ladder to increase contact area and reduce shear force.

At this moment, the trembling of the building became increasingly evident, like an earthquake happening.

"Looks like these zombies really plan to take down this building, that's pretty crazy."

Su Changxing threw his blood-stained Steel Saber to the ground, running through the process of the leap in his mind—the moment of jumping and landing.

There's no room for error; falling from this height could be fatal, or seriously injure him. Besides, there are a ton of zombies below.

Jin raised his arms, with a smile, said, "Let's start. If I fall later, I'll definitely throw down two Hand Grenades."

Su Changxing leaned forward, wrapped his arm around Jin's waist, and lifted her, calmly saying, "Then instead of dying from the fall, we'd be blown up by you."

Her body temperature was slightly lower than average, giving Su Changxing a cool feeling.

Jin wrapped her hands around Su Changxing's neck and clamped her legs around his waist, showing a thoughtful expression, tilting her face and saying, "Hmm, you have a fragrance about you?"

Su Changxing paused a moment and replied, "That's the scent of incense."

Jin sniffed Su Changxing's shoulder and said, "It smells good, but it's something women use."

Su Changxing looked towards the ladder, took a deep breath, and said, "Then just consider me a woman, let's go."

He stepped back a few paces, paused, then fiercely propelled forward with all his strength. As he reached the edge of the rooftop, he reached his maximum speed.

"Clang clang~"

His foot hit the steel-framed ladder, causing it and the railing to sway, emitting sharp noises. The combined weight and force of running made it seem like the ladder couldn't hold out.

Su Changxing pressed his left foot against the edge of the ladder, applying a force at a forty-five-degree angle along the vertical direction of the ladder. Even so, he still felt the ladder deforming visibly.

Fortunately, it didn't break after all.

Su Changxing, like a cannonball, launched from the edge of the ladder towards the opposite building, his coat flaring in the air, with a dense horde of zombies below, their howls clearly audible.

"Wow, woohoo."

Jin shouted with excitement, a look of joy on her face, her grip wasn't tight, and she even fired two shots below.

Two splashes of black blood erupted in the zombie crowd, like small ripples on the water's surface.

At this moment, they were already descending from the rooftop height.

Su Changxing didn't aim to land on the opposite rooftop; the distance was too far, so he chose to fall into one of the lower rooms.

He'd noted earlier that a window on the second floor below was open, and the height was about right.

About four to five meters left.

"Let go."

Su Changxing propelled Jin towards the window while he descended.

Jin flew precisely into the window.

During her descent, she looked back, her blue pupils contracting sharply, unable to see Su Changxing's figure outside the window.

Jin hit the wall heavily, expressionless, immediately getting up from the ground, reaching the window, and saw Su Changxing climbing up from below, appearing at the window.

Su Changxing sized Jin up and said, "Looks like you didn't get hurt. I was worrying I used too much strength."

Jin raised her right hand, mimicking a "gun" gesture, punching a big hole in the chest of a zombie charging from the side, grinning and said, "Hmm, nicely done."
