'Do you wish to connect to the BXB System, System 0009?'
"Say the word yes in your mind," Pixie informed Li Jun, a beam of light passing from Pixie's forehead to Li Jun's.
'Yes,' Li Jun thought, just as Pixie instructed. After the confirmation, the beam of light disappeared from its origin. Li Jun, who believed there would be some changes to his physicality, looked at his body repeatedly.
"What are you looking for?" Pixie asked as he saw Li Jun's weird behavior.
"Well, aren't I supposed to feel or look different?" Li Jun asked, still looking over his body with a perplexed expression.
"Huh!? Do you think this is a transformer?" Pixie retorted with a snort.
"Tch! So what's next?" Li Jun snickered and followed up with a question.
"Each world has its levels, ranging from Easy to Extreme. Some worlds are adapted novels from your original world, but the contents differ. You'll see later on," Pixie informed an avid Li Jun.
"You'll play different characters for different worlds. And as a reminder, there are others like you," Pixie added.
"Others? Transmigrators?" Li Jun questioned, staggered.
"Well, technically, yes. But 'transmigrators,' as you called them, are ranked. The higher the rank, the more complicated it is to complete tasks, especially for the words ranked hard to extremely hard," Pixie said, demonstrating a stick animation on the video transmitter.
"So you're saying if I am the villain in a specific world, another transmigrator may be portrayed as the protagonist. Thus, my task will be much harder to complete?" Li Jun questioned, showcasing his brilliance.
'This kid is quite smart. At least 'they' chose a host of my caliber,' Pixie thought smugged.
"Yes. This also depends on the world's range. But host, please bear in mind that there are rules, and for broken rules, there are punishments and consequences for you and the System you're assigned to. Here, I've transferred the information to you. Say the word stats in your mind, and your stats will appear on the screen just before your retina," Pixie informed Li Jun as a beam of light from his forehead connected with Li Jun's.
'Stats,' Li Jun thought, and instantly, like a pop-up menu, his stats appeared before his eyes.

"Wow, this is incredible. I have my stats! But wait, what are these skills? Glib tongue? 2x Meng Attack!? Trashy!? Unworthy and trashy? Shameless!? Hey, System! What do you mean!?" Li Jun yelled in fury as he read his so-called skills, shown in his stats.
"Ahem! Dear host, I have nothing to do with this. These skills are your abilities and traits; they are from you and have been brought with you from your world. So don't start blaming me for your faults now! I won't take responsibility! I don't care!" Pixie retorted.
"You!" Li Jun cried out, little puffs emitting from his head.
"Alright, alright! I was wrong, huh? I have limited time to explain everything you need to know before your first task. Look to the right of your stats; you'll see something similar to the settings icon from your original world; touch it," Pixie responded resignedly.
"Hmph!" Li Jun harrumphed with a resentful expression as he followed Pixie's instructions.
....
[RULES]
1. Failure to complete tasks results in severe punishment.
P: Punishment differs, particularly at the given task and the world level.
2. Other systems and their hosts must not know about your existence as a transmigrator.
P: Failure to comply results in death, completely brandishing your existence, including System.
3. Systems are PROHIBITED to help complete tasks given to the hosts.
P: Failure to comply will result in severe punishment to both the hosts and respective systems.
4. Relationships between hosts and their respective systems are PROHIBITED. If the examiners detect any unusual relationship between hosts and their systems, both parties will be punished.
P: Punished by death or severe punishments depends on the extent of the relationship.
[REGULATIONS]
For starters, they are given 1000 coins and 100 points. Points can be used to purchase details about a specific world the hosts do not understand. The coins can be used to buy mundane skills and abilities to assist with completing a task.
A specific amount of points and coins can be used to save oneself from punishment. They can also purchase hints for a given scene or task and skip any words the examiners set. For each successful task within each world, the hosts will be rewarded points and coins; the points and coins vary on the different quests and worlds.
Hidden tasks are rewarded twice as many coins or points as the rewards the host would receive for completing the world and task. The world ranges from Easy, Medium, Hard, Extreme Hard, and Extremely Hard. Worlds can be selected randomly or selected by the System.

"These rules and regulations are...intriguing, to say the least," Li Jun commented with a dry smile. Pixie, understanding his words, could only sigh.
'Ting! Ting! Ting!' A sudden deafening ringing resounded inside Li Jun's head.
"Ah! So loud! System! Turn it off!" Li Jun groaned aloud, holding the sides of his head, as the rippling pain from within rang aloud.
"It's time," Pixie said. His body glowed iridescent hues, and suddenly, the surroundings changed.
