It's just an invitation to join the group. To really join the legion, you still have to pass some tests.

Ning Buwen followed the man who called himself Song Zhixing to the No. 2 Legion. When he left, the people from the security department enthusiastically applauded and saw him off.

"Do you know them?" Ning Buwen asked Song Zhixing, "Since they are related to Cheng Yuxue, they should not be ordinary people."

"Well, they were originally a well-known international mercenary group, which was a headache for many legions. However, they were very good at escaping, and later they somehow provoked Cheng Yuxue and were captured and brought here." Song Zhixing nodded, "But having them guarding here also makes people feel more at ease."

Ning Bu Wen thought about his situation seriously. If he could change his career and become a security guard, it seemed like a good outcome.

"I forgot to tell you that our first ten legions have relatively stable team members and a large number of reserve troops, so we take exams together when we recruit new members every year." Song Zhixing explained to Ning Buwen, "If you get a high achievement after passing the level, you may receive invitations from other legions. Although you have been selected by our legion, the higher the evaluation you get, the more invitations you will receive, and the easier it will be to join the legion. You also know that this is the end of the world. Although the current living standards are acceptable, the level of technology has regressed several centuries. Who of us used mobile phones before, but now we have to use them."

Having said that, Song Zhixing sighed again.

After the end of the world, the decline in technology has become unbearable for everyone.

In the past, they could use an intelligent computer to meet any of their needs, but after the end of the world, the magnetic field has undergone major changes, and the intelligent computer has been completely paralyzed. They can only pick up the mobile phones used by the ancients two hundred years ago, because mobile phones have low technical content and can be produced in large quantities.

"Will it affect bonuses or performance?"

"Not really." Song Zhixing thought about it and considered his words. "Our regiment is always the second-in-command. This is the policy set by the regiment commander. For us old veterans, when there is a big event, the No. 1 regiment will take the lead, and the glory will be inseparable from our No. 2 regiment. There is no better position than this. But some of the new young partners are eyeing the position of the No. 1 regiment. They are very motivated, but they can't compare with the old ones, so they are a bit harsh on the new colleagues."

To be precise, it's a thorn in the side.

Ning Buwen understood something from Song Zhixing's lingering words, "I see, you mean they value these false reputations, right?"

"Yes, that's what I mean." Song Zhixing nodded, "However, since this is a newcomer selection, the dungeon you are about to enter may be more difficult, but the rewards are equally rich. If you want to join our legion, you must be prepared to play a game that is several times more difficult than the average person. You may die if you are not careful. It's not too late for you to regret now. If you don't join our upper legion, you can make money by clearing levels in the lower legion and live a comfortable life."

That is the truth.

There are some players who are particularly powerful but would rather live a lazy life in the lower-level legions.

After all, saving the world is not something that can be accomplished by one or two people, so it is better to live your own life. Even in ordinary game levels, there is a high chance of death, let alone those difficult levels with rich rewards

It doesn't matter if you don't ask.

He has no parents, and was an orphan since childhood, growing up in Las Vegas. There are countless gamblers there, and men and women can have sex at any time if they like each other. In addition, painless childbirth surgery was quite mature before the end of the world, resulting in many orphans.

Many wealthy people in Las Vegas donate money to welfare institutions in order to have good luck, but Ning Buwen lives a good life. Their names are also very interesting, such as Buwen, Buli, Buguan, Buhen, Buchou, etc. Ning Buwen was chosen as Buwen, which is the best name among these names. When he was chosen, his friends envied him for a long time.

But no matter how good the treatment in the welfare home is, they are in a place with such a strong gambling atmosphere, and they will naturally go down the path of gambling.

"You should have checked my information. I am naturally fond of excitement. Ordinary days are not suitable for me." Ning Buwen shrugged. "Everyone will die. If you keep hanging around in ordinary dungeons, it's easy to let your guard down. If a stronger one comes, you might die even more miserably than a newbie."

"That makes sense." Song Zhixing smiled, "But I still want to remind you that as long as you can pass the test, whether it is a D-level or C-level evaluation, it is considered a victory. If you blindly pursue a high evaluation and take risks, once you fail, there will be no chance again."

Ning Buwen followed Song Zhixing to the No. 2 Legion and lived there for a few days. He quickly filled out the form and was taken by Song Zhixing to meet several powerful figures in the No. 2 Legion. He successfully participated in the new recruitment with the invitation of the No. 2 Legion.

This is not difficult.

If nothing else, Ning Buwen's divination dice is a rare cause-and-effect probability type. If it can be continuously improved, it will be a great help to the overall strength of the team. In addition, Ning Buwen's martial arts, character, and determination are enough for him to pass the test smoothly.

If the selection process wasn't fixed, he might have been accepted directly.

By the way, as a silly and cute Shiba Inu, Shin-chan was also fed a lot of dog food and gained weight.

There have been many newcomers who have recently come to participate in the legion selection, and many have come from other garrisons. Among them are many young soldiers of the legion who have undergone special training, as well as family members of the legion, and those who have been trained by wealthy children. Of course, there are also lone rangers like Ning Buwen.

The youngest among them is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but the oldest is already in his thirties or forties.

Mo Xiaoyou is here too.

When he saw Mo Xiaoyou, Ning Buwen was somewhat interested and took the initiative to go up to him and say a few words to him.

Mo Xiaoyou seemed much more low-key than before. Perhaps it was because he saw so many outstanding newcomers coming to participate in the trial, so he realized the importance of being humble.

Of course, it’s also because some of these people are so high-profile that it’s impossible to describe them in words, and Mo Xiaoyou can’t compare to them, so he can only keep to himself.

However, Mo Xiaoyou's humility only lasted until Ning Buwen appeared.

"Why are you here too?" Mo Xiaoyou's jaw dropped when he saw Ning Buwen appear. "It's clear that you have to clear three dungeons before you can get here."

Could it be that Ning Buwen completed the game overnight

It can't be that fast.

"I got an invitation from the upper legion, so I'm qualified." Ning Buwen deliberately boasted, "I didn't expect you to be able to come too?"

"Huh, how could I not come? My brother... No, what I mean is that I have always been the eldest brother among a bunch of newcomers. I have outstanding leadership skills, so it's normal for me to be chosen to participate in the selection." Mo Xiaoyou changed the subject very stiffly.

I would rather not ask and pretend not to hear what he said.

"This time, I will definitely get more legion invitations than you, just wait and see." Mo Xiaoyou threatened again, "Among the same batch of newcomers, only one can stand out, and that person must be me!"

“We’ll see.”

There were about forty people coming to take part in the trial. It might not seem like a lot, but it wasn't a small number either.

The legion recruits new members once a month, so naturally the number of people recruited each time is not many.

Although it was the end of the world, the technology of artificial reproduction had not been weakened much, and a settlement could have a population of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. It was not as difficult as one might imagine to select some players who were suitable for completing the game.

Today, when most jobs can be replaced by machines, human initiative has dropped to the lowest point, and Pandora games are the jobs that can gain glory, meaning of existence and a sense of accomplishment the fastest.

Even though someone is dying every moment, there are more people working towards this goal.

Each of the ten legions sent a person to announce some rules to them. In fact, in general, it depends on the final evaluation and level. Life or death does not matter. Players can choose to form a team or go alone. Both are acceptable.

"We have special prop cards that can monitor your progress, but we have no right to interfere with Pandora's game progress." The representative of the First Legion emphasized again and again, "The pass rate of participating in the trial every year is less than 30%, so if you want to quit, it's not too late now."

There were a few who actually quit, but the legion representatives did not look down on them. Instead, they smiled and said, "Giving up is also a kind of victory."

"Let's get started without further ado." A member of the No. 1 Legion took out an item card. "This is a B-level dungeon trial. If you pass it successfully, you will be rated B at the worst. Good luck."

The light of the prop card enveloped Ning Buwen and others. The Pandora pattern on Ning Buwen's wrist also became hot at the right time, and soon took them away from this world.

“I don’t know how many people will survive this time.” The representative of the Fifth Legion couldn’t help but sigh, “Only six of us survived that time.”

"Aren't we all going to die at any time? If no one keeps trying to break through, everyone in this world will die."

"That makes some sense."

"I'm more optimistic about Alice. If she wasn't so young, she should have joined us the first year Pandora appeared."

"Hehe, I heard that a certain player's younger brother is here too. Brothers with the same father and mother can't be bad at all."

"Hey, from the Second Legion, since you didn't say anything, who did you give the qualification of your legion to?"

The representative of the Second Legion said slowly, "A gambler."

"ha?"

"It's rare for your army to be normal for once. Are you just gamblers?"

"Yeah, last time you chose a 70-year-old lady, I thought you were crazy."

The people of Legion No. 2 smiled but said nothing.

I'd rather not ask them, but I've met them a few times, and they're really good.

————————

Ning Buwen and other newcomers all appeared in the Pandora space.

It’s still the familiar blue sea and blue sky.

"Oh, there are quite a lot of you this time." The fish jumped out of the sea, "They are all newcomers with good qualities."

Ning Buwen looked at the fish and found that its patterns were slightly different from the one he had seen before.

That's right.

With so many people around the world playing games at the same time, there naturally cannot be only one customer service representative.

"Come, let me see what your next requirements are for passing the level." The fish spun in the air. "Clang, clang, clang, congratulations. Your requirements for passing the level this time are very simple. You can pass the level as long as you answer the questions of the game staff."

"No time limit?" asked a girl with a ponytail.

This ponytail girl seems to be a representative sent from Station No. 21. She also unlocked her personal physique in the first game. Her specific abilities are not yet known, but it is recognized by everyone that she is wealthy.

The girl's hair tie, bracelets and rings on her hands, necklaces, earrings and brooches, as well as the pair of shoes on her feet are all transformed from prop cards. When she appeared, she was dazzling to everyone.

Ning Buwen made a rough estimate and found that everything on this girl is worth at least hundreds of millions.

Rich man!

Even in such a society, the gap between the rich and the poor is still huge.

However, having item cards does not mean that one has no strength. On the contrary, it proves that this girl is capable of keeping these item cards. Otherwise, if she were to show off like this, she would have been robbed in the game long ago.

There is a judge outside the game, but no one dares to touch him yet.

"No limit, as long as you answer all the questions, you can pass the level immediately." Yu replied, "You can also use item cards and special physiques. If you can kill the employees of the game field, you will also pass the level, but I don't recommend this method."

Who would be so crazy as to kill NPCs in the game

Ning Buwen complained silently in his heart.

No, maybe there is.

Ning Buwen swallowed the words back silently.

"Are the answers determined by the game staff?" another middle-aged man asked.

He was also one of the more eye-catching ones, especially attracting Ning Buwen's attention.

Because the middle-aged man was riding a three-headed hellhound.

Tall, mighty, and scary.

You can tell at first glance that it is of great value and has outstanding combat power.

Looking at Shin-chan who was wagging his tail and gaining weight at his feet, Ning Buwen could only secretly decide to reduce Shin-chan's food supply to vent his anger.

This stupid dog is just lucky. What if he eats too much and can't run anymore

If it loses even the advantage of being "cute", it can really only be used as reserve food.

Xiao Xin didn't know that the comparison with a certain fish in the same category made his owner dislike him even more, so he pounced directly at the customer service fish.

"Okay, newbies, goodbye." The fish blew Shin-chan away with its tail and then jumped into the water.

Ning Bu Wen quickly ran over to catch Xiao Xin, to prevent it from falling into a pile of dog meat, which would not only affect the appearance but also the taste.

"Woof~" Before Xiaoxin could even cry out to his master about his grievances, he was taken away from this space.

"Welcome to the quiz playground." A stylishly dressed clown holding a balloon came up to Ning Buwen and the others, "There are quite a lot of people here, so let's start the quiz."
