**In the White Room**
All the reincarnators were stunned!
They had been in the Reincarnation Space for so long, and they had never encountered someone so domineering!!
But...
They were genuinely intimidated!
Initially, many of them saw the large number of participants for the 4 AM instance and were already having second thoughts.
Now, hearing that Asura was claiming all the symbiotes, they immediately chickened out!
The story of Asura facing off against Admiral Fujitora had already spread throughout the Reincarnation Space. Everyone knew how powerful Asura was.
Though his behavior seemed a bit unreasonable.
But... he had the strength to back it up!
Sorry, but having that kind of strength was indeed impressive!!
Instantly.
Many chose to exit the preparation room, planning to attempt the instance another time.
Waiting one more day was no big deal, especially to avoid competing with Asura and risking their lives.
Of course, some stubborn or confident individuals remained.
After a short while.
Including Chen Ye and Murong Yuling, there were only five people left in the white room.
The other three had different reactions: one was hesitant, one was disdainful, and the last had a blank expression.
Chen Ye smiled slightly. As long as they didn't interfere with his plan, he didn't care what they thought.
Beside Chen Ye, Murong Yuling looked at him with shining eyes, full of admiration!
A true powerhouse indeed, so domineering!
...
As the countdown continued, the hesitant reincarnator finally made the wise choice to leave the preparation room.
During the preparation phase, participants could choose to exit the room.
Only when the countdown reached the final ten minutes did the system lock the exit, making it impossible to leave.
Soon.
The countdown reached the final ten minutes.
"Attention, reincarnators. In 10 minutes, you will be transported to the mission world..."
At this point.
Only four people remained in the white room.
Besides Asura and Murong Yuling, there were one male and one female reincarnator.
Scaring away so many people with a single statement was probably a first in the Reincarnation Space!
Time ticked away...
The 10-minute wait passed quickly.
The system's voice echoed again:
"Starting transport countdown, 10, 9, 8... 3, 2, 1!"
When the countdown ended.
The four people in the white room were enveloped in red light and vanished.
...
After the transport, Chen Ye and the other three did not immediately appear in the instance world. Instead, they were shrouded in red.
Then, a virtual interface appeared in front of Chen Ye.
The virtual interface displayed a young Chinese man who bore a resemblance to Chen Ye's real self.
"Reincarnator 'Asura,' this is your default appearance in this world. If unsatisfied, please modify it promptly!"
Hearing the system prompt, Chen Ye immediately began making changes.
He first changed his ethnicity to appear as a white man.
This wasn't out of a lack of patriotism but for better task completion!
The "Venom" world was set in the United States, where racial discrimination was rampant, and being a foreigner would hinder his movements.
After some adjustments, Chen Ye transformed himself into a robust white man.
He designed an ordinary-looking face to avoid attracting attention during the task.
However, he gave himself a very muscular body, resembling a strongman.
Since he planned to pose as a bodyguard initially, a strong physique was necessary to be convincing.
Every aspect of his appearance was designed with the task in mind.
Once Chen Ye was satisfied with his new look, the system prompted again:
"Reincarnator 'Asura,' please edit your identity!"
[Note: Your identity must be realistic and cannot include high-ranking officials or figures that do not exist in this world. If the edited identity is invalid, you will appear in the instance world as an undocumented individual.]
After the system prompt, Chen Ye smiled and edited his information:
Name: Ronan Anderson
Age: 30
Identity: Private bodyguard of Life Foundation owner, Carlton Drake
After editing, Chen Ye clicked "Complete."
The system prompted:
[Identity edit approved, transporting to instance world.]
The next moment.
A red light flashed before Chen Ye's eyes, and when his vision cleared, he found himself sitting in the passenger seat of a moving car.
The car was speeding down a road.
Chen Ye remained calm, discreetly glancing at the driver and then using the rearview mirror to look at the back seat.
The car was a luxurious Maybach, with two people seated in the back.
The man was, of course, Carlton Drake, the owner of Life Foundation!
The future host of the symbiote, Riot.
Also, his current body's employer!
The woman seemed to be Drake's assistant.
"BOSS, an elementary school will be visiting the company this afternoon. It would be best if you could make an appearance and then give an exclusive interview..."
The assistant was reporting today's schedule to Drake.
The spirited Drake nodded, then asked, "Who is the interviewer?"
"Eddie Brock. He's the hottest journalist right now. The exclusive interview was arranged long ago."
"Yes, I remember now!" Drake smiled, "Eddie Brock? I like that guy."
In the passenger seat, Chen Ye's mind raced.
The name Eddie Brock was very familiar. He was the main character in this instance world: Venom's host!
In his previous life, Eddie Brock was famously known as one of Tom Hardy's most timid characters.
Eddie Brock was interviewing Drake today?
This must be near the beginning of the storyline.
If Chen Ye remembered correctly, from this point, Brock's troubles would start...
...
Soon.
The car arrived at the front of a building.
The building was named "Life Foundation."
It was the company founded by Drake.
When the car stopped, Chen Ye quickly got out and opened the door for Drake.
As a bodyguard, this was part of his duties!!
Drake got out of the car, giving Chen Ye an appreciative glance before striding into the company.
