Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!

Chapter 435: Real Conflict of Interest

"Heh..." Li Ming smiled when he heard that. "Captain Guangyun, thank you very much for sharing so much valuable information with me."

"You're welcome. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my ally." Liu Guangyun responded, and then she blinked her watery eyes. "Besides, the number of challenges to these stone gates is limited. I believe that Captain Li Ming doesn't mind reducing a strong competitor."

"Haha... that's right." Li Ming laughed out loud, "Talking with Captain Guangyun is really like a spring breeze, refreshing and pleasant."

"I feel the same way." Liu Guangyun agreed with a smile.

The members of the 'Liusha Piaoying' team did not stay for too long. It seemed that the purpose of their trip was just to meet Li Ming.

After a brief exchange of greetings, they stood up, said goodbye, and left the volcanic crystal platform.

Yunshan put her hands behind her back and walked briskly to Li Ming's side. She smiled and said, "Not bad. We have one more ally."

"Ally?" The smile on Li Ming's face had completely disappeared, and a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth. "In the Forgotten Land, there is only competition between teams. The so-called allies are nothing but a joke."

"Ah?" Yun Shan looked up in astonishment. "You mean, the people from the 'Liusha Piaoying' team are just pretending to cooperate with us?"

Li Ming did not answer directly, but raised a question, "Have you ever thought about why Liu Guangyun was able to learn about my killing of Anelin so quickly?"

"Could it be that... the 'Frenzy' team revealed it to them?" Yun Shan was not stupid and quickly figured out the key to the problem.

"Nine out of ten." Li Ming nodded and further analyzed: "Liu Guangyun once mentioned that they have a bad relationship with 'Frenzy'. We have no way to verify whether this is true or not, but it is actually not important."

"The important thing is that we have already formed a mortal feud with the Frenzy team. There is no possibility of resolving it."

"If Karodas is not a fool, he will definitely take the initiative to seek reconciliation with the 'Liusha Piaoying' team, and may even make a compromise to avoid being attacked from both sides."

"So." At this point, his eyes became as sharp as a knife. "When Liu Guangyun came to find me, it was almost certain that she had met with Karodas, but she didn't say a word about it. Do you think we can trust such an 'ally'?"

"Good fellow!" Yun Shan's face showed a hint of anger. "It turns out that they have been colluding with each other for a long time and want to attack us. They are even pretending to be an alliance with us."

"That's not the case." Li Ming shook his head slightly and continued, "In the Forgotten Land, the core conflict of interest between teams still stems from the limit on the number of Stone Gate Challenges."

"Each level of difficulty only has three challenges. Once a team completes all the challenges, it means that other teams will miss the opportunity to obtain higher-level fire element crystal cores."

"Didn't Liu Guangyun just say that she doesn't mind joining forces with us to eliminate a powerful competitor? If that's the case, she wouldn't mind getting rid of us as well!"

"Therefore, when we played against Team Frenzy, they would just stand by and watch, and then choose to help the weaker team depending on the situation."

After listening to Li Ming's analysis, Yun Shan's face still looked unhappy. She snorted in dissatisfaction, "I never thought that we would become the snipe and the clam one day, while the 'Liusha Piaoying' team became the fishermen."

"It's no big deal." Li Ming smiled calmly, "In this world, strength is ultimately the key to success."

After saying that, he looked around and said, "We have a pretty good understanding of the situation in the Forgotten Land. There is no need to stay any longer. Let's go back."

"Yeah." Yunshan nodded gently.

Then, the two figures flashed slightly, as if they had traveled through time and space, and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The headquarters of the Meteor team.

After nearly ten hours of silence, the two teleportation crystal platforms in the teleportation center suddenly burst out with dazzling light beams, like brilliant fireworks, piercing the sky.

As the dazzling halo gradually dissipated, the figures of Li Ming and Yun Shan gradually became clear and they appeared steadily on the crystal platform.

"Li Ming!" Miao Qianqian quickly walked towards the two of them. The tense expression on her face finally relaxed and she revealed a smile.

Cecily was also obviously relieved. She half-jokingly said, "You guys took so long to be gone. I thought you were caught in some time and space rift."

Li Ming held Miao Qianqian's slightly cold hand, glanced lightly across the hall, and found that only these two people were present.

He couldn't help but ask: "How long has it been since we left the real world? Where are Xingmei and the others?"

"It's been 9 hours and 45 minutes." Miao Qianqian replied, "You haven't been back for a long time. Xingmei, Qiansha and Xu Yanbing have all gone out to install the surveillance tower."

Li Ming nodded slightly and then called the information center. The next second, a huge screen appeared in front of him as if condensed from the void.

"Notify Dongmen Qiansha immediately and ask her to return to the team headquarters immediately."

A mechanical voice sounded in the hall, "The command has been received and the message has been successfully sent."

Cecily's eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked curiously, "Little man, you are so anxious to get Qiansha back, have you collected enough fire element crystal cores?"

Before Li Ming could respond, Yun Shan answered eagerly, "That's right! We got a total of twelve, all of them are L7 quality, which is definitely enough for Qiansha to transform her physique."

“Twelve?” Cecily’s surprise was evident on her face. “This is really a bumper harvest.”

"Yeah." Li Ming also smiled faintly. He glanced at the girl next to him and said, "It was mainly Yunshan who helped a lot."

“Haha…” Cecily laughed heartily, “I said at the beginning that it would be a good idea to take her with me.”

"Oh, it's really nothing." Yunshan waved her hands shyly at first, trying to keep a low profile, but then she couldn't help but reveal a smug smile, "I just showed a little bit of wit."

The other three couldn't help but smile at each other when they saw this.

While waiting for Dongmen Qiansha to return, the four of them went to the restaurant on the first floor of the accommodation center.

They sat around the crystal clear blue crystal seat, savoring the delicious food served by the mechanical maids and chatting about their thrilling experiences in the Forgotten Land.

Of course, it was Yunshan who was telling the story vividly. She danced and described every detail with great enthusiasm, making people feel as if they were there.

Cecily and Miao Qianqian both listened very carefully, and the expressions on their faces kept changing. They did not expect that Li Ming would encounter such a huge crisis in the Forgotten Land.
