Crazy Crossover
Chu Nan looked up at the unfamiliar sky, looked down beneath his feet at the mouse-like creature with two horns, and lastly, at the unknown beast that he had crushed to death with his weight, before slapping himself twice on the cheek. After he had felt a stinging pain on his cheek, he had finally verified that he had crossed worlds.
As an individual who often read webnovels, Chu Nan was not unfamiliar with the term "crossing worlds". However, he was unaware that it was possible to cross worlds while playing an online game with a virtual helmet. Moreover, he had even crossed worlds together with his equipment.
Opening the spatial bracelet on his wrist, Chu Nan saw the several pieces of celestial-grade equipment and a pile of magic cores that he had obtained from defeating magical beasts. Seeing this had pulled him into the reality that he had truly crossed worlds.
Looking at these dragon crystals, magic cores, and celestial weapons, Chu Nan recalled what happened before he had crossed worlds.
The online game
A wolf's howl sounded from within the depths of the forest, causing Chu Nan to shiver and cautiously survey his surroundings.
Since he had crossed worlds, it was no longer a game where he could die and resurrect. Chu Nan once again opened the spatial bracelet and sought a few weapons to defend himself.
He reached out for Starbringer and an electric current spread throughout his arm, pushing his hand away in an instant. The celestial weapon which he previously wielded without any issues had rejected his grasp.
"What's going on?" Chu Nan looked at Starbringer in shock; it was the first time he had felt such a realistic sensation.
Why was he unable to lift it? Chu Nan once again reached out for Starbringer, but the electric current was much stronger than before and his hand was repelled out of the spatial bracelet.
"Why is this happening?"
Seemingly unable to accept reality, Chu Nan attempted to grab Starbringer once again and suffered from the same fate.
"I can't lift it?"
Chu Nan's eyes brightened as he had finally found other weapons: a staff and another sabre.
"It's the Martial Emperor Sabre! The weapon with the highest attack power among sub-celestial-grade weapons was within the spatial bracelet as well!" Chu Nan could not help but feel excited as he hastily attempted to grab the sabre hilt.
An electric current of the same intensity as from Starbringer surged out and repelled his hand once again.
"What…?"
Chu Nan shook his hand that was numb from the electric currents. Right now, he could only shift his attention to the unknown staff.
Pa! An electric current surged forth.
"It's another failure?" Chu Nan furrowed his brows. Within the large space in the spatial bracelet, none of the rarely seen skill books, magical beast crystals and cores, magic scrolls, dragon crystals, dragon bones, and forbidden magic scrolls were suitable for him to use.
After he carefully searched through the bracelet once again, Chu Nan shook his head with a bitter smile. Perhaps the only item in the bracelet that he could equip to defend himself was the ring he had crafted not long ago: the Fiery Fox Ring.
"At least this is also magic equipment." Chu Nan had no choice other than to reach out for the ring. This time, the ring did not send out any electric currents and he managed to put it on with ease.
Speaking of which, his condition was also rather pitiful. Not only was he unable to use Starbringer, but also the equipment he had previously equipped. This included the strongest warrior armor in
"I wonder if the Alchemy King's soul flame can still be used?"
Chu Nan muttered with a low voice. The purple soul flame once again surfaced, yet it did not release any heat - as if it was merely an illusion.
As he looked at the Alchemy King's soul flame, Chu Nan shook his head and chuckled.
It was hard to imagine that even though he had lost the power of an expert that allowed him to kill thousands with a wave of his hand and cause total annihilation with a single step after he had crossed over, he still managed to bring over numerous items from the game. In particular, the Alchemy King's soul flame.
This was the unique secret skill of the top player in
It was not a simple feat if a player wanted to become the top expert in a game. The Alchemy King's soul flame was said to be the secret weapon of expert players in the past. While other players were killing BOSSes and praying for them to drop suitable weapons for them, the top player of the game was constantly killing magical beasts to obtain magic crystals and dragon crystals.
After this, he would then use the soul flame to combine those crystals with low-quality equipment and create more powerful equipment. This was also the reason why Chu Nan discovered that the top player's spatial ring was only filled with magic crystals, dragon crystals, and a pile of magical beast hearts - also known as magic cores - which could fetch a good price if sold in markets.
If someone could forge equipment with the Alchemy King's soul flame, they could very easily become wealthy in the game. Moreover, it would then be much easier to become the top ranker compared to other players.
Chu Nan looked at the ring on his right index finger and sighed. This item was what he had casually crafted using trash equipment with the top ranker's account. Even until now, he still remembered the stats of the ring:
[Fiery Fox Ring]
50% Reduction of freeze duration for freezing magic below human-grade level 5.
Level 1 Fireball, limited to 10x usage a day.
+10 magic attack.
No level restriction.
Never in his wildest dreams would Chu Nan have ever expected he would bring the ring over after he crossed worlds. The ring that could release ten fireballs a day was merely something he crafted out of boredom and it had unexpectedly become his only protection.
"Alright," Chu Nan released a long sigh and consoled himself. "As long as I have this soul flame, I can craft weapons and armor to defend myself after finding a few pieces of common trash equipment. "
In the gloomy and dark forest, the howling of wolves sounded once again from afar. Chu Nan looked up at the stars in the sky and decided, "I'll head North! I hope that's the correct direction…"
The eerie forest shrouded in the unknown was pervaded by a chilly wind. Chu Nan had temporarily lost the ability to use celestial equipment and his agility was reduced to an incredibly low number.
Fearing the unknown, Chu Nan had been exceptionally careful whenever he moved.
A rabbit suddenly leaped over the grass before him and he hurriedly jumped two steps back. Before he could react, a large grey wolf jumped out from the bushes.
The grey wolf that was chasing after the rabbit had stopped its pursuit after spotting Chu Nan. Between a human and a rabbit, the grey wolf was still capable of distinguishing which was more satiable.
Chu Nan subconsciously swallowed his saliva. He was experienced in killing wolves in the game, but seeing a real wolf before him was completely different.
The wolves caged in zoos back on earth were nowhere near as terrifying as the wolf he had encountered. In particular, its eyes were filled with a savageness that was not something a wolf caged for several decades would possess.
The grey wolf released a low growl and its savage eyes watched the stone that Chu Nan had picked up with vigilance. Its instinct told the wolf that the stone possessed some degree of danger.
Chu Nan was not a newbie, nor was he stupid enough to rush the opponent with a weapon and compete on who has more HP. As a player that used technique, he preferred to strike the opponent's weak point in one attack to inflict maximum damage. Unfortunately, he did not even possess the most ordinary steel knife, and there was only a black stone in his hand.
The grey wolf stared at his prey for a long time and eventually lost its patience. It did not stand at the top of the food chain in the forest. On the contrary, its position was at the very bottom and it did not have much time to stay passive and stare at its opponent. Every second it didn't attack increased the chances that it would end up as another beast's meal.
Without any sign of attacking, springs seemed to have been installed in the grey wolf's legs as it suddenly pounced towards Chu Nan.
Chu Nan was startled by the wolf's speed. It was too quick, and it was much faster than the hunted wolves he had seen on TV.
Hastily, Chu Nan ducked and barely managed to dodge the grey wolf's attack. However, he still felt a burning pain on his chest; he had not completely avoided the wolf's attack. The beginner cloth equipment provided by the system had also been torn apart by the grey wolf's claws.
Chu Nan looked down at the claw wound on his chest. The layer of fat beneath his skin was slightly exposed and fresh blood quickly gushed out. The burning pain came in waves and was so painful that it nearly caused him to scream.
When the grey wolf saw blood, it salivated and became much more violent.
"Motherf*cker! Don't think that you're the only one with skills!" Chu Nan raised his right index finger and said with a smile, "Right now, I declare your execution by fire."
A strange red light flashed from the fiery red gem and a frightened look surfaced in the grey wolf's eyes. It hurriedly turned around to escape, but a fist-sized fireball shot out from Chu Nan's index finger.
After a blood-curdling howl, Chu Nan felt a warm current in his body and the scent of meat wafted throughout the forest.
"Oh? Hey, the fire intensity is just perfect."
Chu Nan revealed a malevolent smile and moved the ring to his middle finger. Before he could even examine the wolf's corpse, the burning pain on his chest had reminded him that he was still injured.
"Crossing over…" Chu Nan frowned. The novels he had read in the past about crossing worlds were usually very exciting, but he was speechless when he finally experienced it.
It only took a blink of an eye for all his efforts in the past few years to become useless. All of his family members had disappeared, and his whole life could be described as starting from nothing.
Gazing into the depths of the ominous forest and being surrounded by trees and bushes, the fear of the unknown had instantly engulfed Chu Nan. The burning pain on his chest acted up again and temporarily diverted his attention.
The layer of fat cells was dyed red with blood and Chu Nan could not find anything to stop the bleeding. All of a sudden, he recalled the items stored in the spatial bracelet.
"Since some equipment is usable, then wound medicine should also be…"
Chu Nan opened the bracelet and took out a small jar of medicine. A faint medicinal scent wafted out the moment he opened the lid.
The burning pain did not give him time to appreciate the fragrance as he swiftly poured out some of the ointment. A relaxing feeling spread throughout his entire body.
As the ointment was applied on his chest wound, the burning pain eventually stopped and he felt a cool sensation all over. Moreover, the wound stopped bleeding.
Chu Nan looked at his chest in awe. An ordinary ointment in
He took out a heaven-grade healing potion from the spatial bracelet and poured it over the wound. An even more amazing scene occurred. The gaping wound had recovered to its original state at an astonishingly fast rate, leaving behind a faint red scar.
"It's so effective? Unfortunately, I only have these three bags and another two bottles of the heaven-grade healing potion. I have to use it sparingly in that case. I should just use earth-grade or human-grade potions if I injure myself in the future."
His concentration was at its maximum during the fight against the grey wolf and now that he had finally relaxed, Chu Nan felt exhausted and his stomach started to growl.
Looking at the wolf's meat that had been cooked by the fireball, he reached out, tore a piece off, and started to devour it.
The meat had not been seasoned but it smelled fragrant and the texture was very similar to beef.
"I can't stay here any longer. The scent of the meat will attract other beasts here soon."
Chu Nan took a piece of roasted leg and left while he thought about the unimaginable things that had happened. While he was playing a game, he had crossed words.
Moreover, he had even brought over all the equipment and items from the game. After the virtual items in his spatial bracelet were materialized, there seemed to be a huge change in their effects.
In the past, the fireball would at most be the size of an infant fist and would only be able to graze the grey wolf or cause minor injuries.
But after the ring crossed over, the skill's firepower was greatly increased; not only had it killed the grey wolf, but also roasted it at the same time.
What if… the other equipment inside the spatial ring could be utilized? When Chu Nan thought of the overpowered celestial-grade staff, Edenchange, he could not help but gulp. In that case, it would simply be far too easy for him to survive in this unknown world.
His lips curved into an evil smile, but when he thought of the possibility that he might be the only human in this world, he instantly grimaced.
"I'm not that unlucky, right?" Chu Nan disposed of the bones after he finished eating. He sighed again as he glanced at the ring and noticed the fireball skill had only nine uses remaining.
The huge forest was surrounded by unfamiliar territory, and he was not arrogant enough to believe he would be invincible in an unknown forest with a single ring. He had to find a safe location he could stay at, for the time being, to research methods on how to use the celestial-grade items in the spatial bracelet. Also, how much could the Alchemy King's soul flame help him in his current situation?
