Jin Jing silently followed the white-haired young man who called himself "Kong", wore an outfit that didn't look like a space armor, and held a big sword in his hand as he walked around a few corners, and then watched him carelessly lift his feet and kick him.
A cabin door was opened that should obviously slide open sideways.
Hmm...except for the hatch, this cabin has no sci-fi style at all.
Brick walls covered with graffiti, wooden floors and ceilings in disrepair, swaying fans, lockers and the debris on them that seemed to fall apart at any time, cardboard boxes scattered everywhere, and a black mattress in the corner that looked like a bed.
The only relatively normal thing is a burgundy single sofa and a stainless steel square table in front of it, but that seat is already occupied.
It was a girl wearing a white shirt and suspender jeans, with short black hair that reached her ears. She was very beautiful but a little fierce, and her eyes were a little scary. What was more scary than her eyes was the gun she was holding in her hand.
...Bazooka?
The moment the cabin door opened, she directly picked up the rocket launcher and pointed it at the door. "Song" walked in indifferently, but Jin Jing was stared at by her like a raptor hunting prey, and she was a little unable to move her legs.
"Welcome to [Blank Game Room]," Sora walked to the sofa and patted the back of the sofa: "This is my sister, 'Bai'. She is very friendly, but she is a bit socially anxious."
"You," the girl called "Bai" raised her bazooka slightly at Jin Jing: "Come in, close the door, and you are not allowed to talk to me."
"Bai"'s voice is very pleasant, but a little deep, as if he doesn't speak often.
By the way, does "a little social phobia" mean... to turn anyone who comes close to her and causes her social phobia into scum?
Jin Jing was speechless for two seconds, but still did as he was told.
Click.
As the hatch closed behind Jin Jing, she felt the atmosphere around her change. The originally cold and unfamiliar space and the accompanying sense of science fiction disappeared, replaced by... something similar to a "landing space"
Atmosphere.
This means that "empty" and "white" are also "reincarnators", although they have already been guessed from the previous situation.
"Hello, my name is 'Bai Jingjing'." Although she had a lot of things to ask, Jin Jing thought it would be better to introduce herself first, especially if the other party had already introduced her first.
"Hmm..." Sora touched his chin: "It's been a long time since I met such a 'reincarnation' who named his 'character' like his real name. Are you a 'newcomer'?"
"...Yes." Although Jin Jing wanted to tell the other party that he had experienced three worlds, he had already lived through three worlds, but he did not have any weapons, equipment or strength that he could use. He had just been chased by the crew of a smuggling ship.
Fight, let's forget it.
"In that case, I guess you have a lot of things to ask, so I'll start with the most urgent ones."
Sora tried to sit on the armrest of the sofa, but after Shiro turned the rocket launcher and pointed it at him, he could only pull a cardboard box and sit on it:
"The crew member of the Betty who just discovered you will not wake up until we arrive at our destination. Even if he is lucky enough to be discovered and rescued by other crew members on duty, his confused brain cannot remember what happened before."
"That's it." Jin Jing breathed a sigh of relief. This way, the plot would not be ruined, even though she didn't know the plot at all.
"As for this place, it is the 'preparation space' for our brothers and sisters," Kong gestured around: "It will exist until the plot officially begins. Before that, it will definitely be ignored by the NPCs. Theoretically speaking, after entering the world,
We can leave and make some preliminary preparations, but from the current mainstream point of view, that is a completely thankless move, and interfering with the plot in advance will only lead to unexpected accidents at some key nodes in the future."
"Hmm..." Jin Jing listened silently and did not respond, but felt that Sora's attitude towards the world of reincarnation was similar to that of the senior "Master Chief". Their brother and sister should also be "senior NPCs".
"Next, as usual, we should show each other our tasks. If there is no intersection, go our separate ways. If there is intersection, see if we can help each other. Don't deceive others in order to complete the task quickly." Sora's eyes narrowed slightly.
He was absent-minded and seemed to be looking at the task panel in front of him.
"What if the tasks conflict with each other?" Jin Jing tried to ask.
"That way we won't meet at all before the plot starts," Kong looked away from the panel: "In this reincarnated world, if there is a confrontation mission, the enemy team should appear at the 'Alien Training Base', but
I saw clearly before entering that this world is not a 'PVP' mode."
"PVP? Battle between players? What if you die?" Although Jin Jing doesn't play games very much, this term is still clear to him.
"Delete the account, of course..." Kong said mid-sentence, then looked at Jin Jing with the eyes of a rare animal: "Have you never 'died' before?"
"If you die, your account will be 'deleted', but that's true." Jin Jing thought for a while and found that being stabbed to death by Kayako and then resurrected should not count.
"Brother, she is just like us, she has never 'lost'." Bai, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.
"Of course, 'Blank' will never lose," Kong responded reflexively, and then continued to stare at Jin Jing: "Maybe it's because I haven't experienced much in the world, or maybe I'm lucky, but since I've encountered it, I'll tell you a fact.
Yes, in the world of reincarnation, [Death is not an escape].”
"I probably know." Jin Jing recalled the "Master Chief"'s attitude before his death, which was more like "preparing to restart" than "seeing death as home", and nodded.
"No, you don't know," Kong waved his hand: "Your current state is 'firewood'. After you die once, you will become 'embers', and if you die again, you will become 'ashes'. After that, you will die again."
, maybe three to five times, maybe more than a dozen times, you will become a 'wandering soul', which is a kind of person who just wants to 'clear the level' quickly to obtain the 'soul', without any communication at all in advance, and will act according to the established pattern. If something goes wrong or
Those bastards who obstruct the game and reopen it may be killed. If you have ever met them, you will know what I am talking about. Although they may 'clear' the level quickly, they make the world of reincarnation lifeless and are completely cancerous."
"In other words..." Jin Jing heard some key points from it: "Only avoiding the first two deaths is the key. After that, as long as you always maintain your enthusiasm for the world of reincarnation, you will at least be an 'ash', right?"
"Oh?" Kong raised his eyebrows: "With this kind of awareness, it seems that it is impossible for you to become a 'wandering soul'. After the world ends this time, please add a friend. If you encounter difficulties in the future, you can draw a charm to summon us.
help."
Is there such a function? Also, what do “drawing talisman” and “summoning” mean?
Although she basically didn't understand, Jin Jing still nodded as if she understood.
