“Pick!”

Only then did Zhuo Bufan remember that there was a hammock option on one of the Elementary 1 Star scrolls, and the synthesized materials just happened to be animal fur and grass.

He had collected quite a bit of dried grass earlier and stored it in the warehouse of the synthesis column. Now, he took it out and synthesized it with the boar skin he just obtained.

Accompanied by the sound of static, a hammock was quickly synthesized.

“At least I won’t sleep on the floor at night. Not bad!”

After putting the hammock into the system backpack, Zhuo Bufan searched the ground and finally located the obsidian stone in an inconspicuous corner.

The completely pitch-black obsidian was cold to the touch, with a wisp of light flowing on the inside. If not for the occasional flicker it let out, Zhuo Bufan would almost have overlooked it.

After obtaining the obsidian stone, he followed up by performing a nervous and exciting (actually rather ordinary) synthesis with the branches he had on hand.

“Bzzbzz… kaka…. bzzbzz…. kaka….”

There was a sound of static louder than when the axe was produced before, mixed with the noise of sparks flying.

If it was like a short circuit earlier, then the sounds it was making now could be considered an explosion.

“It can’t be, right? Doesn’t the System always give the best available products?”

“I’m not well-educated, but don’t think of lying to me!”

“…”

Zhuo Bufan frowned and subconsciously took two steps back. He was very worried that after the fusion column directly exploded, he would be included inside.

Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary.

With a flash of white light, the Ice Fire Magestaff appeared in the Fusion Halo space.

[Ice Fire Magestaff]

[Summons ice or fire energies as your heart desires. You can switch freely between the two elements without any cooldown time.]

“Is this the legendary Spell Machine Gun?!”

Zhuo Bufan’s eyes lit up, and he picked up the Ice Fire Magestaff to carefully examine it.

Its appearance was ordinary, even somehow resembling a little like the Dog-Beating Staff that he saw on television.

(Note: The Dog-Beating Staff comes from the martial arts series “The Legend of the Condor Heroes” by Jin Yong. It is said to be the symbol of leadership for the Beggars’ Sect in the series.)

The slightly rough body of the staff was nothing special. Instead, one’s attention would be entirely focused on the glittering gem embedded at the top of the wand.

When he touched it lightly, he could feel a wave of warmth. In the next second, it suddenly became cold instead.

“Good magic, good staff, good fire, good ice!”

“Pui! What am I thinking? Strike for me! Fire!”

With a thought, the gem lit up with a red light and a fist-sized fireball shot forward.

The heavy rain did not affect the fireball much.

On the contrary, the high temperature evaporated the rain around it, bringing with it waves of water vapor, as if it was dragging a white tail.

Boom…

An unfortunate tree was struck by the fire and was instantly set on fire. In a flash, it was burnt into ashes. The flames looked as though it wanted to spread further, but were mercilessly extinguished by the rain.

“Impressive, domineering!”

Zhuo Bufan excitedly raised his hand again, “Ice!”

With a flash of blue light, an icicle quickly took shape and shot forward.

As the icicle flew forward, the raindrops that fell on them quickly merged with the icicle. The original thin as a fist icicle had turned as thick as a bucket when it hit the trees in the distance.

Boom…

With a loud bang, the tree was snapped in half, and the area hit was filled with ice.

“I didn’t think that there would be such an additional effect. In the future, I should choose to fight with others when it’s raining. How satisfying!”

Putting away the Ice Fire Magestaff, Zhuo Bufan then carried the wild boar that had its fur removed and returned triumphantly.

Back in his makeshift room, he used the axe to cut out a simple wooden spit and also made a pair of chopsticks.

He set up a fireplace and used the wooden spit to roast the wild boar meat. He then tied up the hammock and used the axe to reinforce another layer of wood to fix the hammock in place.

Lying on the hammock and smelling the fragrance of the pork, he was in a great mood.

“I wonder how those big shots are doing.”

Zhuo Bufan got curious, thus he took the chance to access the [Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel].

Within the [Human Race Channel]…

[F*ck! This crappy weather, the rain hasn’t stopped even after half a day. My clothes are soaked!]

[There are forests everywhere, so why isn’t there a cave to hide from the rain!]

[Anasu: I used water magic to create an ice wall, but this spell consumes too much spiritual force. I can only barely hold on.]

“This Penniless Monk is so hungry. Amitabha. Should I eat this pork raw, or raw…”

[Aika: Luckily, I’m a fire-type mage, so I don’t have to worry about not having fire to warm myself up. However, I just feel that fire-type mages really hate rainy days!]

‘It seems like these so-called big shots aren’t doing too well. They’re not even as good as me, this little chicken….’

‘I’m relieved to see that you’re not doing well!’

Zhuo Bufan, who was lurking on the chat group, curled his lips and revealed a smug smile.

As he continued to scroll down the screen, he did not forget to cut off a piece of the sizzling pork and put it into his mouth. He chewed slowly and savored the taste.

“How fragrant! It would be even better if there was a bottle of Snow [1. Brand of beer in China]…”

[Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel — Special Warning!]

[All heroes vying for supremacy, who dares to compete, the Overlord’s open elimination tournament arena officially begins!]

[In three days, a Teleport Portal will appear in all the Lords’ territories.]

[Enter the portal and you will be transported to the arena.]

[Every Lord in the group arena can sign up for 12 matches and fight with others, including those of the same race. The winner will get a reward of x1 Time Card.]

[Time Card: One-time consumable. There is no limit to the number of consumables you can use, as the effects can be stacked. It can be used when the Lord Main Gate is opened. Reduces the time the gate remains opened by two hours.]

Boom! Once the announcement was made, the entire chat channel lit up.

[Those who block me will die. I must get this Time Card!]

[As the saying goes, if I don’t enter hell, who will? Let This Penniless Monk accept things like the Time Card that can arouse wrath and greed in people! Amitabha, I have sinned…]

[Song Chenxing: Everyone, let me say this first. In the arena, fists and feet have no eyes. I won’t show any mercy! Also, I’m already half a step into the Postnatal realm. Three days is enough for me to level up to the Postnatal realm. Those who aren’t afraid of death can try!]

[Aika: Looks like I have to compete with everyone!]

[The time card is mine. Who agrees and who disagrees?!]

“F*ck! I object!”

Zhuo Bufan cursed. Time card, anyone with a brain would know that this was a good thing!

If he won all 12 arena matches and superimposed them, it meant that after ten days, his main gate would not need to be opened during the challenge.

Just the thought of only having ten days to develop was suffocating!

Furthermore, facing his own kind was better than meeting the Dragon or Orc Races when the gate opened!

“Yes, I must participate!”

“And I must win!”

“There are still three days for me to develop, damn it!”

“I’ll set a small target first to upgrade the Fusion Halo. I hope those two-star scrolls will give me some powerful items!”

“Charge! Charge! Charge!”
