Guide? Sand Island Team!

Chapter 10: Guide? Shazhou Team!

Everything had settled.

There were no monsters suddenly popping out, nor any additional melodramatic plot developments.

In the open space in the distance, a giant space battleship that defied human imagination deactivated its stealth mode, with hundreds of adult Predators lined up in formation, surrounding their clan elder.

Unfortunately, these had all become mere background scenery.

As the announcement of the completion of the main mission arrived, all things ceased to move. No matter what kind of trauma one had suffered, even if only a sliver of life remained, it would not worsen or fade away during this period.

And in this frozen time, floating before Fang Xiu and the four newcomers was not the Main God sphere, but the sickly woman who had initially responded and cooperated actively, yet had barely participated in the plot, choosing to slack off in place.

At first, Fang Xiu had comforted her, saying that once they returned to the space alive, the so-called invincible illness would be no different from a joke and could be easily cured.

At this very moment, this tall girl who lacked presence—her eyes were hollow, yet her voice was as docile as ever, almost mechanical.

"Members of the Shazhou Team undergoing the trial, I am the guide for this team."

Shazhou?

No way, to think I was assigned here.

Fang Xiu couldn't help but sigh, but there was no surprise in his heart, because when he first encountered the truck-kun collision, he was indeed on a business trip in the West Asia region—where they either wear a cloth on their head, or they are either the richest or the most dangerous.

"Reincarnator Fang Xiu, you have met all the necessary conditions for captain certification.

Now, please make your choice: will you become the captain of the Shazhou Team? Once confirmed, you will assume the corresponding responsibilities, thereby gaining partial authority over the Main God Space and permanent enhancement."

The woman spoke as if following a procedure, her eyes devoid of any emotion.

Almost without hesitation, Fang Xiu blurted out: "I confirm."

Compared to the so-called responsibilities, the captain's authority and the unknown gifts from the Main God were clearly much more attractive.

Otherwise... wouldn't it all have been for nothing?

With this firm answer, Fang Xiu felt an aura envelop him.

It contained a deeper level of power, even deeper than bloodlines.

Gene Lock! First stage, achieved.

In fact, this realm did not necessarily require one to be between life and death to comprehend; the essence required was a high degree of mental focus and concentration.

It was just that facing great terror made it easier to concentrate one's mind...

While digesting the extra knowledge gifted by the Main God, the light of return immediately sprinkled over this frozen space-time.

Now, Fang Xiu could be certain that the Main God Space he was in was definitely not the era of the first generation, Zheng Zha, where everyone was a pauper.

Second generation?

Third generation?

It didn't look like it.

It should be a multiverse space created by some other unknown existence.

In the next instant, what appeared before his eyes was the plaza he had imagined many times in his head—

He was floating on an incredibly vast, empty platform, and in the very center was a massive, brilliant sphere of light, providing illumination to the entire platform.

"Main God, full body repair for all members."

"Deduct the reward points from me!"

The one shouting was naturally Captain Fang Xiu. He was now filthy rich, a true Shazhou tycoon, and repairing mere flesh burns surely wouldn't cost many points; he would just treat it as a benefit for his team members.

After all... these people were lucky enough to survive the first, most helpless dungeon and obtain the initial startup capital to strengthen themselves.

Three men and one woman. To be honest, what surprised Fang Xiu was that the black uncle who didn't know a thing about the plot, relied entirely on others for information, and seemed to come from a primitive tribe, was actually still alive, even though he was severely burned and had a penetrating wound in his abdomen, looking quite miserable.

At the same time.

The sphere of light in the center of the plaza responded to the request, shooting out five pillars of light that enveloped everyone present.

"It feels like soaking in a hot spring, very gentle..."

"It even repairs the damage to our clothes."

Muttering these two thoughts to himself, Fang Xiu, who had excellent mental state, canceled his transformation technique and returned to his capable ninja attire, slowly descending from the pillar of light.

"Big Brother!"

Immediately, Tang Tian, who had a buzz cut and a gregarious personality, rushed over to greet him, acting very enthusiastic and familiar, which made the other three Reincarnators feel a bit awkward and envious.

One had to know, from the moment they were chosen by the Main God until the protective shield disappeared, Fang Xiu had only spoken a few words to them while earning extra points for explanations.

One hundred and fifty-three points consumed? Through the form of a consciousness link, the Main God delivered a bill, and it was indeed as expected.

"Everyone, I'm glad to see you all again."

Collecting his thoughts, the newly appointed Shazhou Team captain, Fang Xiu, began to guide the conversation to prevent the new members from continuing to feel awkward: "I have now officially been selected as the captain of the Shazhou Team, and through the relevant authority, I have obtained some key information from the Main God."

"Ordinary food is supplied without limit, and all kinds of entertainment items are very cheap..."

The small details of life were recounted one by one, and the care that hadn't been given before was now fully provided.

"Now, please introduce yourselves."

"Tang Tian!" The young man with a buzz cut responded first, acting as if he had already cast himself as Fang Xiu's follower. "I joined a state-owned enterprise right after graduation and was working on a construction project in Shazhou. Unfortunately, one night, I had a stroke of bad luck and was crushed to death by a steel bar falling from a height."

"Emir." A burly man with a beard and oversized sunglasses followed immediately after. "I met with an accident during a royal hunting party. I suppose one of my brothers or uncles felt I was standing in their way."

He had a story.

However, in the Main God Space, status meant absolutely nothing; everything depended on individual ability.

The only thing that caught Fang Xiu's attention was that this guy was cradling a third plasma pistol in his arms.

Not simple...

While silently evaluating him, the black man standing right next to the Middle Eastern tycoon began to speak as if he were chanting:

"Umwewiewievwe Onyetenyevwe Ugwemuhwem Osas..."

"Is it too long? Just call me Odubiao. My real profession is a small-time businessman selling bananas. Hahaha, thank you all. The Main God gave me a second life, Emir saved me from the Xenomorph, and now the Captain's generosity has saved me from the Grim Reaper once again..."

As he spoke, he flashed a mouthful of white teeth, looking honest and simple-minded.

The gaze inevitably turned toward the only woman in the team.

An Arab lady.

Due to the trial environment, she had shed her heavy white robes, only to replace them with an even bulkier polar cold-weather suit. Her face remained covered by a veil, revealing only a pair of light blue eyes; she was extremely conservative.

"Haida."

Compared to the talkative nature of the three male team members, this answer sounded somewhat brief.

Of course, Fang Xiu did not care about such things. Exchanging names and knowing what to call each other was enough. Deep in his mind, there was still a lot of critical information waiting to be digested and absorbed! "Alright, from now on, we are a team. I hope we can support each other and go further, at least not like the previous generation... wiped out during a certain trial, unable to even leave behind a spark."

"Because the only Guide vanished immediately after selecting the Captain."
