"Uh?" In a daze, Lin Chen slowly opened his eyes, his consciousness not fully recovered yet, but he quickly realized his situation and jumped up in a hurry.
Looking around, this is a strange room, clearly in a rural area, with walls not plastered bright white and lacking even the most basic floor tiles or wooden flooring. The bed isn't his own comfortable one with a silk quilt, but a very ordinary cotton one.
"Where is this?" Confused and wary in the unfamiliar room, Lin Chen remembered being in the game embedding a divine-grade Sky-Shaking Crazy Sword, wondering how he fainted and ended up here. If he had passed out in the game, his game character should have logged off automatically, and he should be in his own room.
"Ah, you're awake..." As Lin Chen was pondering his situation, suddenly a somewhat joyful female voice rang out. He turned to see a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old walking in, wearing strange robes, unlike any clothing he recognized.
"Where is this? How did I end up here?" Lin Chen asked cautiously, a puzzled look on his face.
"This is Lotte Village. Our caravan found you passed out on the road and saved you. We are just passing through Lotte Village," the woman explained as she entered with an iron basin.
"Lotte Village? Caravan? Myself passing out on the road?" Hearing this, Lin Chen's frown deepened. Why would he pass out on the road? And what is Lotte Village? He had never heard of it. Could he have lost a portion of his memory?
"Thank you, I'm fine now." Although unsure of what had happened, Lin Chen stood up to express his thanks and headed towards the door, intending to go home.
However, when he opened the door, he stood dumbfounded. Outside, a luxurious carriage was parked not far away, along with several dozen splendid horses and many soldiers in armor patrolling back and forth, carrying spears that glinted coldly. These were not sights from his own society.
"What's going on? What is this place?" Suddenly thrust into a foreign world, Lin Chen felt at a loss. Looking up, he saw a blazing white sun in the sky, different from Earth's golden sun. Besides, two other enormous planets were clearly visible in the sky.
"This isn't Earth!" Lin Chen realized, internally exclaiming in shock. He didn't know what to do, having crossed over into a strange world seemingly set in an ancient feudal era while he was just playing a game at home.

"Fortunately, the inhabitants of this planet are humans, or else if they were some bizarre aliens, it would be worse than death," he thought. The shock of traversing to another planet or world mixed with a sense of relief.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?" The girl from the room walked out and asked, seeing Lin Chen frozen at the door.
"Oh, nothing, nothing..." Hearing the girl behind him, Lin Chen quickly suppressed his shock and shook his head, turning his gaze to her and experiencing a sudden enlightenment.
"Rona, Level 15, Apprentice Magician." As Lin Chen focused on the girl, data instinctively sprang to his mind, startling him, and then he quickly looked down to see a data page pop up in his mind.
Lin Chen.
Level 10.
Class: Warrior.
Novice Clothes: Defense 0-1, Level Requirement 1.
Upper Hook: A quick left-handed punch that increases attack power by 20%, consumes 5 MP, cooldown 5 seconds, lv3.
Weapon Mastery: Increases attack power of all weapons by 10%, passive skill, lv5.
Heavy Chop: Concentrates body energy to perform a powerful downward chop with the weapon in hand, increasing attack power by 40%, consumes 15 MP, cooldown 5 seconds, lv8.
Kick Away: Kicks the opponent, causing them to retreat, increases attack power by 30%, consumes 7 MP, cooldown 5 seconds, lv10.
Seeing his own data, Lin Chen was startled; this was his data from "Reprimand"! Why did he bring his game data with him when he crossed to this world? But then, he quickly became overjoyed - regardless, this was not necessarily a bad thing.
"So, what about the items in my package?" Thinking that he had brought all his game data to this world, Lin Chen quickly opened his backpack, and indeed, it was packed with top-quality items.
"Anti-Magic Potion (Legendary), can restrain magical attacks from monsters or players below level 100, restraint time 3600 seconds."
"Unstable Potion (Epic), a high concentration of unstable potion that is prone to explosion upon impact, causing massive damage."
"Storm Longsword (Epic), Level Requirement 63, Physical Attack 480-562, Attack Speed +10, Durability 35/35."
"Elf Staff (Legendary), Level Requirement 59, Magical Attack 680-720, Inlay Bonus, Magic Attack Upper Limit +120, Durability 28/28."
Pleased with the premium equipment and potions in his package, Lin Chen felt that if he had these items, he certainly had the capital to survive. And these were just the epic and legendary equipment - his package also contained two supreme equipment and a divine artifact, the Sky-Shaking Crazy Sword.
However, what troubled him was the absence of his Qiankun Furnace, likely because he was struck by the red lightning at the last moment and only had time to store the Sky-Shaking Crazy Sword.
"The equipment is secondary; what about my skills?" Although the powerful equipment in his package pleased him greatly, the real capital for survival was his life skills. As long as he had his forging and alchemy skills, he could make as much equipment and potions as he wanted.
Thinking this, Lin Chen quickly opened his life skills page. Sure enough, some skills like mining and herb gathering were grayed out, but his forging and alchemy skills were highlighted, and both were at grandmaster level.
"Grandmaster level?" Seeing his forging skill was only at grandmaster level, Lin Chen paused. With his full proficiency, having made the divine artifact Sky-Shaking Crazy Sword, he should have advanced to divine craftsman, right? Why was it only at grandmaster level? Could it be because he was struck by the lightning that he didn't successfully advance?
"Hey, hey, hey..." As Lin Chen was absorbed in his data, a pair of delicate hands kept waving in front of his eyes. The girl had obviously noticed Lin Chen's distraction.
"Ah? What's the matter?" Shaken from his thoughts by the waving hands, Lin Chen regained focus, temporarily exiting his data panel and asking in confusion.
"You're leaving? Then you should at least say goodbye to the lady first. After all, it was she who saved you." The girl had obviously noticed Lin Chen's intention to leave, hence her reminder.
