Chapter 522 Member Introduction
The last person to follow Lu Bingjun into the community hall was a young man with messy hair. He looked a little sleepy and seemed confused about the current situation.
However, after his gaze swept over everyone in the hall, he suddenly revealed a very pleasant expression: "Hey? Qin Cheng! What are you doing here?"
Following his gaze, everyone saw a thin young man with narrow-rimmed glasses who also looked somewhat surprised. He had been chatting with another player by the window, but now he got up and came over.
"Shengjie, it's been a long time. It's been about five or six years since we graduated from high school."
The other person nodded: "Yes! Five or six years have passed in the blink of an eye."
Lu Bingjun was somewhat surprised: "Oh? You two know each other before? Perfect, let's introduce ourselves and get to know each other first."
Everyone took their seats around the long table.
Lin Sizhi glanced around briefly and confirmed that the number of people in the community had indeed changed to 14, so the number of chairs around the long table had also changed.
The two young people, who greeted each other and clearly knew each other before, naturally sat down together.
Lu Bingjun sat down at the head of the long table and continued to lead the conversation.
"Our Second Community welcomes five new members this time, including both new and returning players. On behalf of the Second Community, I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone!"
"Some new players may not know anything about the new world yet, but that's okay. I will arrange for experienced members to provide detailed guidance and introductions one-on-one and privately later."
"The first thing we should do now is get to know each other. After all, from today onwards, we are comrades-in-arms who will entrust our lives to each other in the corridor."
"Let me first introduce the long-time members of Community 2."
The situation is different now than when Lin Sizhi first entered the 17th community.
The members of Community 17 were all entering the new world for the first time and didn't know each other, so they introduced themselves in order of their numbers.
However, the nine players in Community 2 are all survivors from Phase 9, know each other, and Lu Bingjun is clearly a leader-like figure in the community.
Therefore, Lu Bingjun was responsible for introducing all the veteran members.
Lin Sizhi also roughly noted down the basic information of these players.
No. 2 Yao Yuan, male, 28 years old, company employee.
No. 3 Deng Xiao, male, 31 years old, fitness coach.
No. 4 Wen Wan, female, 27 years old, e-commerce.
Lu Bingjun, No. 5, male, 42 years old, senior executive of the company.
No. 6 Geng Yuxia, female, 59 years old, self-employed.
He Qinyun, No. 7, female, 30 years old, product manager.
Ye Lin, No. 8, female, 34 years old, blogger.
No. 10 Zheng Chunhua, male, 44 years old, middle school teacher.
Zhou Wanlin, No. 11, female, 35 years old, administrative supervisor.
These are players who were already in this community during the first phase.
In addition, there are five new players.
Qin Cheng, male, 25 years old, a medical student, is here in the new world for the first time.
No. 9 Shen Bowen, female, 29 years old, mechanical engineer.
Lin Sizhi, No. 12.
Lu Qi, number 13, female, 23 years old, college student, is visiting the new world for the first time.
Huang Shengjie, male, 25 years old, unemployed, is here for the first time. This is his first time in the new world.
Of the five outsiders, Lin Sizhi and Shen Bowen both experienced the first phase of the game. They joined the current community as outsiders only because the original community was broken up and reorganized.
Qin Cheng, Lu Qi, and Huang Shengjie, on the other hand, are complete new players, at least judging from their performance.
Huang Shengjie and Qin Cheng were high school classmates and knew each other in real life, but according to their descriptions, they went to study in different cities after graduating from high school, so they lost contact. Now, seeing each other again as new players, it's hard to say whether it's lucky or unlucky.
After listening to the self-introductions of the five new players, Lu Bingjun looked at Qin Cheng with some surprise.
"Are you a medical student?"
Qin Cheng nodded.
Huang Shengjie chimed in, "Qin Cheng is the top student in our high school! I've always felt that it's a waste of his talent for him to study medicine. Someone like him should be building airplanes or rockets."
Lu Bingjun nodded approvingly to Qin Cheng: "Doctors are a rare profession here. Keep it up and do your best."
He then looked at Lin Sizhi and Shen Bowen, two veteran players who had participated in the first phase, but it was clear that they did not know each other or have met the current players in the community.
"Do you two have any questions? Please feel free to ask."
Clearly, Qin Cheng, Lu Qi, and Huang Shengjie, these three new players, have just entered a new world. Although they have a lot of questions, these questions are all educational in nature and easy to answer.
It will not have any impact on the original ecology of the community.
However, Lin Sizhi and Shen Bowen are veteran players, and they must have their own habits and understanding of community building and arcade games, so they are the ones who need special attention.
If an "experienced outsider" fails to integrate smoothly into the community, the harm they cause will inevitably be much greater than that of a new player.
Lin Sizhi thought for a moment and asked, "What type of game was the first game you experienced? What was it called?"
Lu Bingjun replied, "It's a distribution game that involves everyone, called 'Flower Tile Poker'."
Lin Sizhi then looked at Shen Bowen, who claimed to be a mechanical engineer and did indeed possess some of the unique qualities of a woman with a science and engineering background.
Shen Bowen said, "It's also a distribution game that everyone participates in, called 'Puzzle Poker'."
Lin Sizhi nodded and said, "The game I'm playing is 'Blood Poker'."
Everyone quickly realized the meaning behind this.
Shen Bowen said thoughtfully, "This means that we come from at least three different 'regions'."
When the first allocation game was played, the Arcade said it was "all-inclusive," and at that time, "all-inclusive" included all players in communities 1-20.
However, it is clear that the "area" comprised of communities 1 to 20 is not a single entity.
Therefore, the first allocation game that each region participates in is also different.
Lu Bingjun looked at the big screen: "Retrieve the game rules of 'Flower Tile Poker'."
However, instead of the expected rule explanation, only a simple line of text appeared on the big screen.
No game found.
Lu Bingjun paused for a moment, then said, "Check all the game rules."
Logically, at this point, a special page similar to an encyclopedia website should appear, with the game name on the left and the specific rules for each game on the right.
This page should summarize all the games that have appeared so far.
But at this moment, the page is empty except for a single text message.
No relevant records found.
Lu Bingjun was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized the reason.
"After entering the second stage, all game records from the first stage were cleared?"
"...Alright, let's just forget the past and move forward lightly."
