Champions World.Gu Nan walked around the base on his side, his eyes calmly scanning the surroundings. He would occasionally ask the people in the base some questions.That’s right—there were locals living in the bases on both sides of Champions World, and their population was quite considerable too.Like the two lanes connecting the bases, the two bases were also divided into black and white sides, each marked by a crystal that stood high in the center of the base.Compared with those games in Gu Nan's past life, this Champions World was way more honest—the “crystal” the mission mentioned really was a crystal.At this time, Gu Nan was standing in the middle of his own base. In front of him was a huge white crystal as tall as twenty people. It was embedded into the ground."You mean, the two of them went out to find enemies to attack?" Wu Gui stood beside Gu Nan, her face looking pensive.The two of them had walked all the way here. At first she didn't quite understand Gu Nan's actions. ‘If you know your companions have gone to fight, then what are you still doing here?’But as their dialogue with the natives deepened step by step, Wu Gui quickly realized that something was off about this situation.This plane had very special laws, which were completely different from anything she’d seen in her previous lives.Firstly, they didn’t have to fear death—they, who were called “champions,” only needed to wait for a while after dying and would come back to life in the champion fountain.Secondly, their goal was to destroy the enemy’s crystal, and only the crystal. Any other actions, such as killing people and snatching treasures, were all done to serve this goal.Finally, there was only one way for them to improve their strength—by killing the enemy."You’ll get money if you land the last blow, otherwise you’ll only get experience. Can you understand it if I put it like this?" Gu Nan was still making inquiries of the "NPCs" one by one when he casually said this to Wu Gui."Oh right, there’s no hurry to learn abilities. You can decide later based on the type of enemy," Gu Nan added.Wu Gui’s expression immediately darkened somewhat."Eh? Don’t tell me you’ve already learned it? What a pity…"“……”Faced with Gu Nan’s chattering this whole way, although Wu Gui’s expression didn’t look good, the young girl still remained silent from beginning to end. As someone who used to be a mighty powerhouse, she still had this much patience.An abilities system existed in Champions World. Each champion had two passives, two actives, and one ultimate, totaling five abilities.Based on Gu Nan's assessment of his own abilities, these abilities didn't just randomly appear. Instead, they were defined based on the participants' own abilities.For example, all five of Gu Nan's abilities were pre-existing ones.The two passives were "Power of Shadows" and "Evil God Physique," the two actives were "Blink" and "Shadow Sword Overlay," and the ultimate was "Righteous Judgment."Among them, Power of Shadows was an innate ability—that is, it can’t be ranked up at will and will instead scale with the champion’s level.On the other hand, Evil God Physique—like most other passives—can be ranked up at will.This wasn’t much different from the competitive MOBA games in Gu Nan's memory, but some adjustments were made to the details to better suit Star Rulers.In Gu Nan's view, this was undoubtedly a balance mechanism of the world itself, so as to prevent any difference in the strengths of the Star Rulers themselves from affecting the balance of power between the two sides.Although one’s cultivation realm could be restricted inside the Inner World, not everyone possessed the same number of abilities, so participants’ abilities must also be distributed uniformly.Gu Nan didn't ask Wu Gui what her abilities were. Right now, this Buddhist Ancestor was probably still wary of him and wouldn't tell him the truth.Besides, he didn’t have time to care about this. He was busy asking NPCs one after another."Hello, may I ask what you sell here?""I sell melons!""Can your melon restore HP?""What did you say… Hey, don't eat that, you haven't paid yet!"Moments later, Gu Nan tossed aside a beat-up aunt who had a bloody nose and a swollen face. However, even after he took a bite out of all the fruits and melons on her stand one by one, he still didn’t find anything special.It wasn’t just the aunt selling melons, but practically any native, vendor booth, or shop that Gu Nan could see, he had to go in and "try it out."So the entire street fell into chaos. Of course Gu Nan didn’t have any money, but as a “champion," obviously no one could do anything to him.Because too many people filed complaints, a guard finally found him and said awkwardly, "Esteemed Champion, could you please—""What do you want to do to me?" Gu Nan interrupted him rudely."I… don't dare."“Then what else do you have to say to me?""I…"……After night fell."I heard you visited all the shops in the base today?" Zi Dian looked at Gu Nan with a slight chuckle. He’d already heard about Gu Nan’s antics."Mm." Gu Nan just nodded nonchalantly and changed the topic, "You two also didn’t have much success today? Looks like the opponents aren’t novices either.""How do you know?" Ying Ge asked from the side."The laws in Champions World are unusual. If all our opponents are first-timers, then it’s impossible for them to obediently stay inside the base all day. As long as someone comes out, they’ll be ambushed by you two," Gu Nan said.Wu Gui frowned slightly. "What if the other side’s four people travel together?""That also proves that the other party came prepared." Gu Nan shrugged. "Even rookies will be told that they can resurrect here. If they weren’t on guard against ambushers, what would be the point of moving in a group all the time?"Some of the most basic rules were well known to the locals in the base. Anyone could learn about them as long as they randomly asked around.Resurrection was the core rule, but the locals wouldn’t tell champions any losses they would suffer after dying.Wu Gui couldn’t think of any response to Gu Nan’s words. Fortunately, she’d long gotten used to such a situation, so she was able to shrug it off, falling silent again.Ying Ge, who looked like a little girl, jumped in front of Gu Nan again and fluttered her blood-red cloak. "You still haven't told me what you were doing during the day!"Her pair of large eyes were full of curiosity. This Blood Ancestor didn’t hide her curiosity about a strange fellow like Gu Nan."Of course it was to find goods that can come in handy. Equipment, items, and potions all count," Gu Nan didn’t hide his purpose at all and casually answered.Ying Ge and Zi Dian looked at each other, wondering, "All the items in Champions World are mortal items. What use can they have?"In Champions World, even if champions like Gu Nan just entered and were at their weakest, they still had power comparable to the outside world’s Prodigious Realm.This was also inevitable, because their innate ability passive was their own law, so of course they were at least Prodigious Realm.And all the items in the base wouldn’t exceed Innate Realm at most and would never contain any power of laws. What help could these items provide them?However, Gu Nan just shook his head slightly. "They may not be useful in the game’s later stages, but they can establish a good start."Gu Nan's eyes swept over the three, his face full of confidence."I never said those things are for us!"
