Choosing Players X The Game World

Everyone stared at the Game Console.

Kurapika said with a hint of helplessness, "We have very little information to gather at the moment. Even within the Hunter x Hunter community, many people have doubts about the authenticity of this Game Console."

"Based on the information that is publicly available, no one has come out of the game yet, and even if someone has, no one has shared any related information."

"This means that if we intend to enter the game, the first problem we will face is that the game itself may be a trap."

After hearing Kurapika's words, Kevin smiled and said, "You seem to have forgotten that the reason we're paying attention to this game is because a friend of mine gave us a related Gift."

"And this friend is the game's lead designer; he was responsible for the overall planning and development of the game."

Upon hearing this explanation, Kurapika suddenly understood and nodded.

He then said, "If that's the case, the game's credibility is indeed greatly enhanced, but it also reflects the game's extremely high difficulty."

Pairo nodded in agreement, "Based on the information we have so far, almost no one has come out of the game, so there are probably only two possibilities."

"Either you can only leave the game by completing it, or there are limited ways to leave the game, and they are quite difficult to do so." This was discussed after exchanging information with Kita.

Kevin looked at everyone and said, "Then, we must first prepare for the possibility that those who enter will not be able to leave for a short period of time."

This means that those who currently have missions to complete should ideally avoid entering the game.

"I won't go in. It's safer to keep these two Game Console in my room," Rosana said with a smile, gently patting her son's head.

Although Batler claimed that the Game Console was incredibly sturdy once it was turned on and almost impossible to destroy, for Nen user like them, nothing is absolutely indestructible.

In this situation, it would undoubtedly be safer to keep the Game Console in Rosana's "room".

At this stage, there is indeed no safer place than Rosana's "room".

Ultimately, whether out of her own desires or a subconscious longing, Rosana desired a completely safe "home."

This means that while her Nen Space may be mediocre in other aspects, its level of security is absolutely unquestionable.

Gowen also stated that he does not plan to be among the first to enter the game.

Although he was young and equally curious about the game, there were plenty of slots on the Game Console, so there was no need to rush.

Moreover, he currently has a mission to undertake, requiring him to work with Daznuer on the recruitment of bodyguards.

Similarly, Daznuer naturally couldn't enter the game. Besides, putting aside everything else, his professional skills were absolutely top-notch.

He almost never considered entering the game.

Squala was quite interested in the game, but as the only livestock worker on the Manor, he couldn't leave his post for long.

Thus, the slots for entering the game are basically confirmed as follows: Kevin, Melusina, Pairo, Kurapika, and Nion.

"Today isn't a good day, everyone take a break. We'll officially start the game tomorrow."

Kevin said with a smile. To be honest, he was really looking forward to it.

The next day.

Kevin was still asleep when Kurapika and the others arrived at the workshop.

This is a newly constructed building on the Manor last year.

The building also has a lot of expandable space, and it's a place Rosana knows best, because it was essentially built for her.

They are currently in a small Meeting Room.

Apart from the table in the center, the benches around it, and the whiteboard in front, there was no other furniture in the room, making it seem somewhat empty.

"Why isn't Uncle Kevin here yet? He's usually very punctual."

Nion sat on the bench, fidgeting anxiously.

Kurapika took her hand and gently patted it twice.

Pairo sat down next to Kurapika and said, "It's rare to see you up this early; Uncle will definitely say that."

"You! Humph!"

Nion was somewhat angry, but she couldn't refute it, because what Pairo said was true.

Kurapika could only hold her and give an awkward laugh.

These two really don't get along.

Across from her, Rosana rested her chin on her hands, smiling as she watched the interaction between the three.

Not long after.

Important figures from the Manor arrived one after another.

Even though they might not actually enter the game, they all wanted to experience it.

Just then, Kevin arrived leisurely, with Melusina was holding his arm, humming a song softly.

"Oh, Nion, you're up so early today."

Kevin saw Nion and instinctively teased her.

"Pfft!" Pairo couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Kurapika smiled too.

"Snort!"

Nion was extremely displeased. She glared at Kevin and said loudly, "You're dawdling too much! We're supposed to get into the game today!"

"Me? You actually called me slow? I admit it, but it's a bit strange to hear you say that."

Kevin muttered to himself as he sat down on the stool.

Melusina walked over to Nion and reached out to pinch her puffed-up cheeks.

He smiled and comforted her, "Don't be angry, I'll teach him a lesson later."

"Whee."

Nion immediately beamed and hugged Melusina's arm.

"Alright, let's begin."

Gowen distributed the pre-prepared memory cards to everyone, while Kevin took out the one that Kim had given him.

Although this card is essentially the same as those sold in stores, the Greed Island logo on it makes it look more upscale.

"Then, according to the instructions, insert the memory card and then infuse Nen Aura."

As he spoke, Kevin added, "Are the potions all ready? Don't let anything go wrong now."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Kevin was the first to insert the memory card into the Game Console, and as he channeled his Nen Aura into it, he vanished on the spot.

"It's gone! How amazing!"

"Nion exclaimed in amazement."

Everyone was surprised; they hadn't expected it to disappear so instantly.

Pairo stared wide-eyed at the Game Console.

Sure enough, the surface of the Game Console was covered with a chain-like material that wrapped the inserted Memory Card, forming a single unit.

On the large computer screen connected to the Game Console, information about the player was displayed, including Kevin's avatar and some basic data.

"I'll go next."

Melusina said impatiently, then inserted the Memory Card and disappeared on the spot.

Next was Nion, and finally Kurapika and Pairo.

"Nen ability are amazing no matter how many times you see them," Light couldn't help but remark.

"Then I'll hide these two Game Console," Rosana said with a smile.

Everyone nodded and tactfully left the room.

Kevin felt a sudden lightness in his body, and the scenery before him instantly changed. He was no longer in Meeting Room, but had transformed into a dazzling, technologically advanced room.

This is a rather narrow and towering circular space.

The wall is divided into numerous long, black and white stripes, giving it a peculiar visual effect reminiscent of a circuit board.

Before Kevin could get a good look around, a figure appeared beside him.

"Kevin!"

Melusina shouted with a laugh, while looking around at her surroundings.

Nion then appeared.

"Ah! I'm in! I'm really in the game!"

Nion looked around at her surroundings. She was a little worried when she first appeared, but when she saw Kevin and Melusina, she immediately relaxed and jumped around excitedly.

Kurapika and Pairo also arrived one after another.

In just a few dozen seconds, all five of them appeared in this space.

"We should go in through that the Gate."

Kurapika pointed to a door in front of them, which also looked very high-tech.

The group walked to the door, Kevin reached out and pushed it open. After stepping inside, he looked back and realized that the others couldn't come in.

"Can only one person come in?" Pairo frowned.

At this moment, Nion looked thoughtful and said, "This situation might be like a tutorial. Although we are all Nen user and entered the game at the same time..."

However, unexpected situations sometimes occur, such as many players entering at the same time. To avoid conflicts and protect privacy,

Therefore, it's possible that players will be introduced one by one, undergoing a tutorial.

What surprised everyone was not the content of Nion's speech, but the fact that she would think in this way.

"Are you thinking about this seriously?" Pairo asked in surprise.

Even Kurapika leaned closer to her, patted her head, and looked her up and down.

Nion's brow furrowed, veins throbbing, and she slapped Kurapika's hand away, yelling, "Shut up! Don't treat me like an idiot!"

"Alright, in that case, I'll go in and take a look first."

Kevin said this and walked straight ahead.

The door then slowly closed, separating the two sides.

The corridor was short; after walking a few steps, we reached another door.

Kevin pushed open the door and entered a larger space. This space also had a circular design, not much different from the small floating room he had just been in.

The only unusual thing was the data station suspended in the center of the room, which gave it a very futuristic feel.

A little girl wearing an electronic headband with wires was looking at him.

This young girl is Nen user; her strength is not to be underestimated. Her apparent age is merely a facade.

"Automotive welcomes the world of G·I--"

A slightly mechanical voice sounded.

Kevin looked at the girl in front of him.

The ring he held in his palm made a soft sound, as if it had been activated.

"Now, we will be explaining the game to you. Would you like to hear the instructions?"

This should be the game's tutorial NPC, and it's played by a real person.

Kevin nodded.

The woman began her explanation. "In the game, once you wear the ring in your palm, you can use two types of magic."

Kevin glanced at the ring in his hand, thought for a moment, and then simply put it on his index finger.

"These two spells are [BOOK] and [GAIN]."

After the brief introduction, the woman looked at Kevin and said, "Now, please extend the hand wearing the ring and try it out. Just try it out first."

Upon hearing this, Kevin extended his right hand.

"Book."

"Bang!"

Accompanied by a sound similar to a game sound effect, a small burst of white mist exploded, and a thick book floated in front of him.

The book cover is made of stiff material, bound with metal, and has a large circular symbol on the cover, with circles of different sizes overlapping each other in the middle, and four small arrows in the four directions.

Although it's called a book, it looks more like a meticulously packaged collection.

Considering this is a game called "World of Films, "Kevin deduced that it was probably a collection book used to store World of Films.

Then the woman's voice rang out again. "In the game, you will obtain all kinds of items, and these items can be converted into fragments."

This book is specifically used to store world records.

"And this book is the core of the game; the core objective of the game is to fill this book."

Now, please turn to the first page of this book.

Kevin obediently opened the book.

The pages and appearance of the collection are similar, only more exquisite.

On the first page, right in the center of the margin, there was a groove, seemingly just big enough to hold a picture card, with the number 000 written in the middle of the groove.

The first page on the right, which is the main page, is divided into nine sections using a 3x3 grid. The narrower sections at the top are numbered 001-009.

From the right to the left, the oaths are arranged in order.

"The book currently contains no world records; each compartment is printed with a corresponding number."

The woman spoke, pointing to the book.

"The corresponding cards can only be placed in the slots with the corresponding numbers; this is called the [Designated Pocket]."

Now, please continue turning the page.

Kevin did as he was told and flipped through the pages.

The numbers proceed sequentially until 099 appears, at which point the next page displays a blank white groove without any numbers.

The woman then said, "The Blank Slot you see now, without any number markings, are called [Free Pocket]."

[Designated Pocket] There are one hundred in a row, with numbers ranging from NO.000 to NO.099.

[From the pocket] there are only forty-five.

The condition for passing the level is to place the corresponding Number Plate into the corresponding slots. You pass the level when you collect all one hundred Number Plate.

After hearing the brief introduction, Kevin nodded, thinking it was quite simple; it sounded like a typical collection game.

But considering that no one has cleared it for so long, it obviously can't be that simple.

Sure enough, the explanation wasn't over yet.

The woman continued, "Strictly speaking, the so-called collection isn't about collecting simple game cards, but rather collecting one hundred different items, turning them into game cards, and then placing them in the [Designated Pocket]."

This is definitely not a simple collection of films.

And the second important type of magic hasn't been introduced yet.

"In the game, you can obtain different items through various means. When an item is successfully obtained, it will automatically transform into a world record."

Now you can put the film into the corresponding slot.

As she spoke, she held up her finger and emphasized, "Once the prop is turned into a card, it can no longer be used. If you want to use the prop, you have to turn the card back into a prop."

This is where the magic of GAIN comes in.

Is this a special mention because there are some restrictions?

Once a card is transformed back into an item using the [GAIN] magic, it can only be used as an item and cannot be transformed back into a card and placed in a slot.

Please pay special attention to this.

Kevin nodded, indicating that he understood.

"And if you want to turn the item back into a card, you must acquire it again."

This means that there are multiple versions of each item; there are no unique, one-of-a-kind pieces.

"Besides these two situations, there are two other situations where the ghost props cannot be turned into a finished film."

Kevin listened attentively.

One possibility is that the [limited number of items] available for use has reached its limit.

All items on this island have their own [limited availability].

Some are limited to one hundred, while others are limited to only three.

As she spoke, she began to give examples. "For instance, there is a weapon with three [world card limit] cards. If three members of the Gao family simultaneously possess this weapon's world card item, even if a fourth member of the Gao family discovers the same weapon, they will not be able to turn it into a world card."

This is the [limit of world fragmentation].

At this point, Kevin asked, "So, what if I was the fourth person to get this item, but due to limitations, I couldn't turn it into a card?"

But after a while, the available spots become available. Will the props I have change and be recreated?

This is a crucial question.

However, the other party did not seem inclined to reply.

"No information other than basic details will be provided to the player without prior notice or reminders. Please explore and learn more during the game."

It's quite strict.

Kevin nodded, indicating that he understood.

The woman continued, "The second scenario is that the props that became part of the film were not included in the book in time."

In this situation, after sixty seconds, the prop will revert to a prop and can never revert back to a prop.

After addressing these issues, the woman added, "Dying in the game is a true death; the ring and all stored information will be destroyed, including any collected fragments."

Hmm, doesn't this indirectly encourage the Gao family to kill each other?

The higher the quality of a film, the greater the quantity restrictions.

In this situation, the simplest way to obtain a card is probably to kill the person who owns the World Card and free up a spot. "That's the basic information about the game. You can start playing now."

Good luck, please go down the stairs.

A series of staircases emerged from the platform where the central girl floated, spiraling downwards.

Kevin nodded and slowly walked down the stairs.
