What puzzled Su Yu was that there were so many people in the room, all of them with Asian faces, and many of them were carrying guns. How come they didn't cause panic among the local people when they suddenly appeared on the streets of Water Bear City in the United States of Igor?

Scarface gave a few simple instructions, and among the group led by him, the energetic young man and Chu Tianyang were the first to take action.

The energetic young man strode towards the newsstand across the street, while Chu Tianyang randomly stopped a passerby and rattled off a string of foreign words, as if asking the person something.

The scarred man and the silver-haired woman didn't move, standing quietly in place. Fu Xueying, however, was not idle. Noticing the three men with severed fingers groaning in pain, she frowned and turned to walk towards the three unfortunate souls.

"Don't move."

As if by magic, Fu Xueying took out a few small items and squatted down in front of the bank employee who had lost two fingers.

Gently comforting the other woman, Fu Xueying used something like a cable tie to bind the bank employee's finger. Then, she picked up a spray bottle and sprayed it on the bank employee's wound.

The bank employee's pig-like screams subsided considerably, and the pained expression on her face also lessened.

Following the same procedure, Fu Xueying treated the wounds of the two thugs, speaking to them as she worked.

"The Red Cube has been very good-tempered. Before punishing the three of you, it reminded you of the rules of the Rubik's Cube Space game many times. Who told you to take chances? I heard that there are more than just the Red Cube as the manager in the Rubik's Cube Space. If it were any other manager, and you encountered a Rubik's Cube with a bad temper, your fate would have been much worse."

"Furthermore, when the Red Cube punished you, it deliberately avoided targeting your vital fingers. Even though it severed six fingers, this young man still retained his right thumb, index finger, middle finger, and little finger. While it's not as convenient as before, it doesn't affect his ability to fire. What would you have done without his right index finger?!"

"The bleeding has stopped. I've sprayed pain relief spray on your wounds. The pain will gradually lessen until the medication wears off. Based on past experience, the effect should last for eight hours. Don't forget to come back for more treatment later."

After handling the situation properly, Fu Xueying put away the pain-relieving spray. No matter how hard Su Yu tried to concentrate, he couldn't see where she put the pain-relieving spray. In the blink of an eye, the thing disappeared from the wife's hand.

Su Yu's subtle actions naturally did not escape Fu Xueying's notice, mainly because she did not intend to hide them.

Turning her head, Fu Xueying smiled at Su Yu, expressing her goodwill in this way.

Among these newcomers, Su Yu performed the best and was the most likely to become their teammate, so how could Fu Xueying forget him?

"Isn't that amazing?"

Fu Xueying got up and walked to Su Yu, raising one hand.

"Well......"

Su Yu was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected the other party to approach him so directly.

Judging from Fu Xueying's posture, was she planning to shake hands with him?

Just as Su Yu was about to reach out and shake hands with Fu Xueying, a pistol appeared out of nowhere in Fu's wife's hand.

"What's going on?"

Su Yu's eyes narrowed. This time he saw it clearly: the gun in Fu Xueying's hand had indeed appeared out of thin air.

"This is all thanks to the spatial watch I'm wearing on my wrist. As the name suggests, a spatial watch is a spatial item for storing items. You can think of it as a spatial ring from novels and movies, but it has more comprehensive functions. Once you survive this game and return to your room alive, you can spend points to buy one of these watches from the Red Cube."

Fu Xueying answered Su Yu's questions, saying that as long as he survived, he would find out about these things sooner or later.

Instead of hiding it, it's better to be honest and tell the truth. It's not really a secret.

Including treating the wounds of those three unlucky guys, Fu Xueying's goal was to make them remember her kindness.

She wouldn't pay a high price for such small favors, even if only one out of ten newcomers she helped survived. She might get a hundred times the return from them.

Another point is that her husband, Chu Tianyang, is too reckless and acts without thinking, often doing things that offend people. Therefore, she must establish a good image. If the couple both play the bad cop, they are destined not to survive long in the Rubik's Cube Space.

One plays the bad cop, and the other plays the good cop; this way, things won't escalate to an irreversible point.

This woman is so smart that even Su Yu couldn't help but envy Chu Tianyang's luck.

He didn't know Fu Xueying's specific thoughts, but that didn't stop Su Yu from realizing that she was trying to gain his favor.

"Ms. Fu, I didn't realize your husband was so knowledgeable. His fluent English is something even someone who has passed the CET-6 exam couldn't achieve."

Su Yu was ostensibly praising Chu Tianyang, but in reality, he was gathering intelligence.

"Hehe, just like you see, before my husband entered the Magic Cube Space, he was a complete brute who couldn't read a single word. The reason he can speak fluent English is because he exchanged for language proficiency in the Magic Cube Space. No matter which country he goes to, he can communicate with the locals without any problems. This is also a compulsory course for every player in the Magic Cube Space. In the Magic Cube Space, you can not only exchange for language proficiency, but also for the real world we live in, and even cultural knowledge that far exceeds the level of the real world."

Fu Xueying's words gave Su Yu a more detailed understanding of Rubik's Cube Space.

"Ms. Fu, please stop making fun of me. I don't think your husband is a brute. Just like you said, he has a carefree personality and speaks his mind, but that doesn't stop him from being an excellent man."

Su Yu was no novice; he skillfully defused the awkward situation.

"I think so too."

Flattery never fails, and Su Yu's praise was clearly very pleasing to the married woman. Fu Xueying covered her mouth and chuckled.

"By the way, Ms. Fu, why didn't our appearance cause a riot? That doesn't make sense. And many of them were carrying guns, so why weren't the people around us afraid?"

Su Yu asked another question that had been bothering him; his willingness to ask questions had always been one of his strengths.

"That's because during our teleportation, the red cube performs cognitive repair on the people in the target area. Perhaps we think we appeared out of thin air, but to the people around us, we've always existed. As for the guns everyone's carrying, you have to understand that this is the United States of Igu, a country where citizens are allowed to legally own guns and ammunition. Plus, the guns everyone's carrying are all sorts of things—AK47s, M16s, and even Barrett heavy sniper rifles. To be so blatantly parading around like this, don't you think it's more like cosplay than being terrorists?"

Fu Xueying's words left Su Yu stunned.

These words may sound absurd at first glance, but upon closer reflection, they seem quite reasonable.

Su Yu hadn't forgotten Scarface's words, "You are all dead." He didn't know what others thought, but Su Yu clearly remembered how he died.

The dead have come back to life and appeared in a room that defies common sense. They have also been transported to another world. Even though they were born in the East and grew up under the red flag, there are some things they have to believe.

"Ms. Fu, I know your and your husband's names, but I don't know the names of the other three people who were standing with you earlier. Would you mind introducing them to me?"

Despite having many questions in his mind, Su Yu still chose to ask some trivial questions during their first meeting in order not to arouse Fu Xueying's suspicion or aversion.

"The one who had the conflict with someone was Mao Xingzhou, and the one who decided on the team's action plan was the team leader Chen Bin. Another female team member was named An Qiluo. Although she didn't talk much, she was an exceptionally kind person and the most senior. We all liked to call her Auntie."

When introducing the other three people, Fu Xueying was concise and to the point, explaining everything clearly in just a few sentences.

"Thank you so much, Ms. Fu."

Su Yu bowed to Fu Xueying. Regardless of her motives, the fact that she had told him so much was an immense favor.

As the saying goes, helping is a favor, not helping is one's right. When you are away from home, you should know when to advance and when to retreat, and be polite. Otherwise, you will only increase other people's resentment.

Fu Xueying also thought highly of this newcomer. She waved her hand, indicating to Su Yu not to be too polite with her, as she hadn't done anything particularly remarkable.

"You keep calling me Ms. Fu, it makes me sound old. You look younger than me. If you don't mind, just call me Sister Fu or Sister Xueying."

As the two were talking, Chu Tianyang, who had gone out to gather information, returned and was whispering with Scarface, also known as Battalion Commander Chen Bin.

Before Chu Tianyang and Chen Bin could finish speaking, Mao Xingzhou across the street caused some trouble.

The guy took a map from the newsstand but didn't pay the newsstand owner, and was chased by people demanding payment.

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of the entanglement, Mao Xingzhou became desperate, took out a pistol from his spatial watch, and fired a shot at the boss's feet.

bang...

Loud gunshots rang out in the street. The newsstand owner was terrified and naturally dared not chase after them. He fled back to his newsstand and hid behind it. The local tribesmen around him also began to scatter and flee.

"You're always causing me trouble!"

Seeing Mao Xingzhou return to him triumphantly, Chen Bin slapped the guy on the back of the head.

Even Su Yu almost couldn't hold back and cursed on the spot that this son of a bitch was good for nothing and good for making things worse.

Judging from this situation, Chen Bin probably asked Mao Xingzhou to get a map, but the other party didn't have the money, so he just forcibly took one.

Su Yu thought to himself, "You fucking have no money and no cell phone?"

Borrowing a map from a newsstand owner and taking a few photos—isn't that the same thing?

Nowadays, even budget phones have decent camera resolutions. Fu Xueying had previously mentioned that one point in the Magic Cube Space system is equivalent to 10,000 yuan in local currency. Su Yu didn't believe that Mao Xingzhou was so poor that he couldn't even afford a budget phone.

At most, he would be scolded by his boss as a poor bastard, but it would never lead to a violent incident. As a result, Mao Xingzhou chose the stupidest method.

Now look what's happened, everyone's become terrorists.

Before they even saw any zombies, they had to deal with the police and counter-terrorism forces of the United States of Iggu!

"Fuck you, you're such a terrible teammate."

Su Yu was even considering whether he should run away. As long as he didn't leave Water Bear City, he could keep his distance from these people. Once the biochemical virus broke out, there would be no police or counter-terrorism forces to arrest him.

Fortunately, the sound of the red Rubik's Cube rang out before Su Yu could act.

Upon hearing the announcement from the red Rubik's Cube, Su Yu first breathed a sigh of relief, but then couldn't help becoming nervous again.

"Notification to all players in the Cube Space: The bio-virus will break out in fifteen minutes. In addition to players in the Cube Space, all life forms in Water Bear City will be infected with the bio-virus and immediately turn into zombies. Please prepare to fight back or escape."

The red Rubik's Cube is like a dutiful nanny, but what it says sends chills down your spine.

The good news is that we don't have to worry about the threats from the police and counter-terrorism forces anymore. We can just run around a bit and stall until those guys turn into zombies.

The bad news is that everyone only has fifteen minutes to prepare, during which they also have to deal with the police and counter-terrorism forces that may appear at any time.

Just as Su Yu was pondering what to do next, Chen Bin, who was in charge, had already set his sights on a bus parked on the side of the road.

"Get on that bus. Those who want to live, come along. Those who want to die, stay here. I'm only giving you one minute."

After Chen Bin finished speaking, regardless of the reactions of the crowd, he shot towards the bus door like an arrow.

Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying were quick on their feet, with Mao Xingzhou following closely behind.

Although An Qiluo was fast, she trailed behind the four of them. Even while running, she maintained her elegant demeanor, giving the impression of being completely at ease.

"Damn, I'm speechless."

Su Yu quickly caught up with the five people. He couldn't even remember how many times he had cursed under his breath in a short period of time.

Su Yu is very well-mannered, polite, and knows how to behave appropriately, but that applies to people who deserve respect.

When dealing with idiots, a thousand words are less effective than a single curse word; at least it lets someone with a poor brain know they're being insulted.

Mao Xingzhou, that bastard, has already been categorized as an idiot. Su Yu really suspects that when Mao Xingzhou's mother gave birth to him, she filled this guy's brain with his period.

Su Yu rushed onto the bus behind An Qiluo, and after that, the other newcomers gradually ran onto the bus one after another.

Despite his plump physique, the fat leader is not the last one.

Just as Chen Bin had predicted in the Rubik's Cube room, the thug who lost six fingers ended up last because he chose the Barrett sniper rifle and was greedy.

The thug ran for nearly a minute over a distance of only thirty or forty meters, during which he almost dropped his Barrett sniper rifle twice.

Just before the deadline set by Chen Bin, the thug scrambled onto the bus.

The bus driver was nowhere to be found. He must have gotten off at the stop to do something. There were only a few trembling passengers on the bus, hiding behind their seats, probably quite frightened by the gunshots earlier.

"Get out of here, all of you!"

Chen Bin didn't care about anything else. He took out a rifle from his spatial watch and pointed it at the passengers in the car.

In this era where firepower equals justice and caliber equals truth, innocent passengers, emboldened by Chen Bin's tyranny, scrambled to get off the bus.

Fu Xueying consciously sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and turned her gaze to Chen Bin and Chu Tianyang.

"Old Chu, you give directions. Go to the nearest tall building, excluding shopping malls and other places where people gather."

Chen Bin's ability to become a team leader, even if the team only has five people including him, shows that he does indeed have exceptional abilities in certain areas.

Having already found a seat, Su Yu nodded secretly after hearing Chen Bin's arrangements.

Chen Bin's choice was wise. The best way to survive in a city where a biohazard virus has broken out is to find a tall building with a wide view to hide in. No matter what happens in the future, at least at the beginning of the game, he will not be exposed to the sight of the zombie horde, and at the same time he can observe the surrounding situation.

Of course, you should also avoid crowded places like shopping malls. No matter how open the view is there, it's broad daylight now. The bigger the mall, the better the business, the more customers, and the more zombies there will be.

Going to such a place is tantamount to delivering takeout to zombies.

In this five-person team, Chu Tianyang is a reckless fool, and Mao Xingzhou is an idiot.

An Qiluo had never spoken or done anything in public, so Su Yu couldn't comment on her.

Fu Xueying is a nice person and easy to talk to. Chen Bin has the airs of a regimental commander, but he is decisive and can make the right judgments when things happen.

I'll stick with them for a while and see how things go.

Based on the available intelligence, Su Yu made his choice.
