Come Hit Me Through the Internet Cable, Then

The Cross-Regional Chat Channel had opened!

Nan Feng curiously opened the panel and looked at the newly appeared feature.

Ding! Successfully entered the Cross-Regional Chat Channel!

Ding! Only Chosen Ones above Level 5 may speak in the Cross-Regional Chat Channel, and each message must be at least 30 seconds apart.

Ding! Your region is the 527th region on this planet to produce a Level 5 Chosen One. This region is hereby officially designated Primordial World Zone 527!

"Primordial World Zone 527?"

Listening to the Genesis System's voice, Nan Feng could not help but feel surprised.

Before him, at least 526 Chosen Ones had already reached Level 5?

Wasn't that way too fast?

Shaking his head, Nan Feng looked at the Cross-Regional Chat Channel again.

(132) Sakura Kojiro: "Heh, another newcomer. Reaching Level 5 only when the third day is about to end—what trash strength."

(288) Emilia: "This should be the last newcomer today, right?"

(17) Xiao Angran: "@Nan Feng, brother, are you from Dragon Country?"

Nan Feng glanced at Xiao Angran's avatar. Judging from his appearance alone, the other party should also be from Dragon Country.

This Cross-Regional Chat Channel probably came with an automatic translation function, because Nan Feng noticed that many Chosen Ones from other countries were also sending their messages in Dragon Country's language.

(527) Nan Feng: "@Xiao Angran, yeah, I'm from Dragon Country. What's the deal with this Cross-Regional Chat Channel? Why are there so many foreign friends here?"

(132) Sakura Kojiro: "Who's your friend? You Dragon Country people are all trash, and you're the trashiest of the trash. The warriors of my Great Sakura Empire never make friends with garbage."

Before Xiao Angran could reply, a netizen called Sakura Kojiro spoke up first.

Nan Feng was utterly dumbfounded. He had been cursed at for no reason at all—who could put up with that?

The key was that Nan Feng had not done anything.

Licking his lips, Nan Feng began furiously typing out a long rant.

(527) Nan Feng: "@Sakura Kojiro, you brain-dead piece of trash, did your mom die today, leaving you starved for maternal love, so your mouth stinks this badly? Sorry, I can't help you with that. I can't give you motherly love, but I can give you fatherly love, because I'm your real dad... (2,000 words omitted)"

Sent!

The Cross-Regional Chat Channel only allowed one message every thirty seconds. The interval was too long, so Nan Feng had no way to send it line by line. The other side would not be able to experience the true power of a keyboard warrior, which left Nan Feng somewhat regretful.

Still, every sentence in that rant involved the other guy's parents, so its killing power was not weak.

As a kendo prodigy of the Sakura Family, Sakura Kojiro had never been insulted like that in his life. His face immediately turned livid with rage.

(132) Sakura Kojiro: "Nan Feng, you're dead."

(527) Nan Feng: "Heh, then fucking come hit me through the internet cable?"

(132) Sakura Kojiro: "As you wish."

Nan Feng froze, immediately sensing that something was wrong.

This guy can't really come over through the internet cable to beat me up, can he...? Nan Feng cautiously looked around. No one was there. Good, good.

"Damn it, it's almost dark, and I'm still here arguing with people..."

The sun was about to set, and Nan Feng was still some distance away from the Wooden Cabin.

He did not want to spend the night in the wilderness. That would be no different from courting death.

Closing the panel, Nan Feng ran back to the Wooden Cabin in large strides.

Nan Feng still did not know how much of an impact cursing out Sakura Kojiro in the Cross-Regional Chat Channel would have on the entire Zone 527.

Before the sky had completely darkened, Nan Feng finally made it back to the Wooden Cabin.

"Whew, I can finally rest for a bit."

Only inside the Wooden Cabin could Nan Feng fully relax.

His exploration of the mine that afternoon had been extremely dangerous, but the gains had also been enormous.

Nan Feng had gone directly from Level 4 to Level 5, becoming number one on the level rankings.

He had also received 1 Reputation Point as a reward, though Nan Feng still did not know what Reputation was for.

On top of that, his Destined Divine Weapon had upgraded once more, reaching the peak of F-rank.

The improvement had been tremendous.

After resting for a while, Nan Feng lit a campfire and began roasting meat.

While the meat was roasting, Nan Feng took out the Desert Eagle, aimed at a large tree more than forty meters outside the Wooden Cabin, and began practicing his marksmanship.

After firing more than two hundred rounds, Nan Feng felt that his shooting had improved again.

"From now on, I'll practice for half an hour every night and improve my accuracy."

After setting himself a small goal, Nan Feng put away the Desert Eagle and shut the Wooden Cabin's door.

Based on the past two days' experience, in a little over half an hour, large numbers of ferocious beasts would begin roaming at night. Nan Feng had no desire to provoke those terrifying creatures.

The aroma of roasted meat lingered inside the Wooden Cabin.

But after eating roasted meat for three straight days, Nan Feng was already sick of it. Just looking at it now made him feel a little nauseated.

But there was no helping it. In this Primordial World, all sorts of meat were easy to obtain, while fruits and vegetables were much harder to find.

Even if it made him sick, Nan Feng still had to eat. Going too long without food would apparently inflict a Weakness debuff, reducing all Attributes by 5% to 50%—a very serious penalty. Nan Feng had learned this from the chat channel, though he had no idea whether it was true, since he had never gone hungry so far.

"Time to eat."

Taking a deep breath, Nan Feng began eating the roasted meat. At the same time, he opened his panel, intending to spend a while chatting in the group.

The moment he opened the panel, Nan Feng saw a flood of private messages. The chat channel had completely exploded as well.

Chat Channel:

Bao Jian: "Why is Boss Nan Feng still lurking? Come out and say something already. @Nan Feng"

Huang Yuanming: "Don't rush him. He probably just got back to the Wooden Cabin and hasn't seen the messages yet."

Tian Zhiping: "Hmph. If you ask me, he's just scared and hiding. Nan Feng caused this mess all by himself, so why should everyone in our district bear the consequences?"

Wu Li: "Enough. There's no point saying all that now. We should think about what to do."

Nan Feng was completely baffled and had no idea what was going on.

"What the hell is this about..."

Opening the private messages his other friends had sent him, Nan Feng gradually pieced together the situation.

It turned out that after Nan Feng had cursed Sakura Kojiro out in the Cross-Regional Chat Channel, Sakura Kojiro had flown into a rage and directly announced that he would launch a cross-region challenge against District 527.

This so-called cross-region challenge was actually an item.

Cross-Region Challenge Token: Designate a district and engage in a fair 1v1 duel against the highest-level Chosen One in that district. All resources in the victor's district will increase by 10%. All resources in the loser's district will decrease by 10%. (Note: When either Chosen One's Health Points fall to 1, they will be deemed defeated.)

With this Cross-Region Challenge Token, Sakura Kojiro could directly challenge Nan Feng. If he won, he could even seize 10% of District 527's resources!

This concerned the entire district, so naturally the chat channel had exploded.

After figuring out the whole story, Nan Feng sucked in a sharp breath.

"Fuck, that idiot can really come beat me up through the internet..."
