Chapter 5: Luxurious Newcomer Panel
After the man named "Luo Ji" finished speaking, seven or eight seconds passed before the eyelids of the female teammate with an extremely unstable mental state moved slightly, and Meng Yi, who had delayed for two seconds, also "woke up" immediately after.
In the conference room carrying the smell of blood in the air, the atmosphere fell into a dead silence for a time.
The three theoretical "teammates" size each other up, and no one says anything more.
Meng Yi glances at the area near him with the corner of his eye, but does not find the hand cannon, dagger, chainsword, or long knife he brought in.
*Alright, it is understandable that "Evolution Paradise," which can pull people from various worlds, does not let players use external items to get through the early stage. *
Without weapons in hand, Meng Yi is not panicked in the slightest; his greatest reliance is his "psychic power," not guns and blades.
Meng Yi, who calls himself an "intellectual," can also say "Dr. Meng has never been good at fighting in his life, only good at solving fights" with a thick face.
If there are no "veterans" or "guides" among the players in the selection dungeon cast by "Evolution Paradise," and the location cast is only the conference room under his feet, then it is truly too arrogant.
Of the three new players, the first to speak, "Luo Ji," is dressed in a suit and leather shoes, his clothes soaked by ice water making him shiver, looking as embarrassed as a "drowned rat."
As for his appearance, he is at the average level of a regular carbon-based life form, a yellow-skinned person, a "corporate slave" around thirty years old, living in the shadow of the Trisolarans all day, looking more weathered and mature than his physiological age.
The female teammate is curled up in the corner of the wall by the window, wearing a silver-white combat suit full of technological sense, her silver hair simply tied with a black hairband, the hair behind her head scattered and hanging down to her waist.
What is surprising is the color of her pupils, different from all the pupil colors Meng Yi has seen in his past and present lives; the blue-pink pupils look extraordinary at first glance.
Finally, there is Meng Yi, in a patched, old, and worn-out garment, having lived in the bottom layer of the heavily polluted Hive City planet for a long time, so don't expect his smell to be very good. His own trimmed short black hair is uneven as if chewed by a dog, his face like a flower cat, a refugee style from a war-torn area.
……
Luo Ji, whose physical condition is not very good, really can't hold it anymore, shivering as he takes off his suit jacket and throws it aside, wringing his inner shirt hard, wringing out a large puddle of water.
Luo Ji looks like he has been saved, full of apologies as he asks the girl by the window.
"The situation is urgent, I hope you can understand, miss."
The girl, who seemed to have only just regained her senses, shook her head indifferently; it was a disregard for life, a listlessness of a heart turned to ash.
"Please."
She replies with two words as dryly as a soldier, continuing to observe the surrounding environment with her mouth shut.
*Okay, a problem girl. *
Luo Ji sighs in distress, a social person's polite smile appearing on his face, turning his head to ask Meng Yi familiarly: "Little brother, how should I address you?"
"……Address, in this environment, each person's real name is meaningless. I advise you to take a code name. Just call me 'White Devil'."
Meng Yi says plainly, his tone no less indifferent than the "female warrior" who just disregarded life, but at least he can communicate.
He uses the common language of the Human Empire of the Warhammer world, while Luo Ji uses the Chinese language that is very familiar to Meng Yi.
Through the lip movements of the girl just now, Meng Yi is certain that what she said is not any language he understands.
But the three of them can still hear what the others want to express without any error.
*A means of universal language, does "Evolution Paradise" not even bother to mention it? *
*Evolution Paradise... evolution, perhaps what 'He' cares about is only the occurrence of the 'evolution' phenomenon. *
*Some kind of mechanism that affects the multiverse? A big shot who gains endless growth through the 'evolution concept'? *
Meng Yi falls into a state of thinking again, making Luo Ji's eyelids jump wildly.
What kind of damn place is this? The two teammates he met are both mentally abnormal!
The strange combination of a problem girl + a problem boy, can they still be okay!
"Alright, then Luo will be called 'Wallfacer'."
"Let's see if there is anything around that can help us understand the intelligence."
Luo Ji, a corporate slave in his thirties, pats his forehead in distress, carrying the state of a dizzy head, dragging his body that can't exert any strength, and begins to act.
The world is never peaceful, and the universe is also a dark forest.
Beautiful lives are all the same, while miserable lives are different in their own ways.
Regarding the past encounters of the girl and Meng Yi, Luo Ji does not intend to uncover other people's scars, directly not even asking.
Meng Yi also does not continue to think about the essence of "Evolution Paradise"; with his weak strength, thinking more is useless.
No matter how pit-filled it is, can it be more pit-filled than the Chaos Gods of the Warp in the Warhammer worldview?
Blood God Khorne, Changer of Ways Tzeentch, Dark Prince Slaanesh, Father Nurgle, Eldar Pantheon, Greater Good, Great Devourer, countless Warp Greater Daemons...
The material universe is also full of pits: Immortal Old Ones, Rule C'tan, Necrons of the Necrontyr race, Immortals, Tyranids, Orks, Humans, Eldar, Tau, Space Aliens, Fallen...
By comparison, the selection dungeon where viruses are rampant and zombies are everywhere is as beautiful as a dream Eden!
Supporting his body with his palm to get up, Meng Yi unconsciously finds that the back of his right hand has an extra "∞" mark similar to a Mobius strip, like an ancient snake biting its tail.
Focusing his attention on the mark, he naturally gets the information feedback from "Evolution Paradise."
A torrent of information gathers in his heart, and the countless complex information is simplified by "Evolution Paradise" into text that Meng Yi can understand.
【Semi-digitization is complete, player can check it by yourself.】
As soon as Meng Yi has the thought of "checking," several categories appear in his mind.
【One: Information Panel.】
【Two: Current Task.】
【Three: Storage Space (Basic 1 cubic meter, can be expanded by consuming Paradise Coins later).】
【Four: Permission too low, unable to check.】
……
Only the first three are visible options, and the others are invisible due to "permission" reasons.
Concentrating his spirit to click on 【Function 1: Information Panel】, Meng Yi's status is all quantified in text form.

【Warm Reminder: You, a tiger entering a flock of sheep, are you willing to retract your claws and choose to be a piece of trash?】
*The world background mentions the 'demon' that broke free from the cage, could it be referring to me? *
Meng Yi, who has never been good at fighting in his life, is socially phobic and introverted, "realized"! ===== CHAPTER 6 =====
