Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the members of the "Starfall" team suddenly changed, and even Cletina showed a look of astonishment for a short time.

Dongmen Qiansha glanced at Yunshan imperceptibly, and they both understood in their hearts that Li Ming had obviously guessed right, otherwise, these people would not have reacted so strongly.

After a long while, Cletina showed a trace of helplessness. She said, "Captain Li Ming, since you have already guessed it, there is no point in me denying it. But this matter can never be used as a condition for a deal."

As she spoke, her tone became unusually firm and serious.

"I totally understand." Li Ming smiled faintly, and didn't seem to care at all.

He certainly knew that any treasure related to Order and Chaos was priceless and no one would compromise.

Put yourself in his shoes. If someone dared to propose trading their team's 'Chaos Eye', he would at most respond with one word: Get lost!

Then, he thought for a moment and continued to ask, "The place you plan to go to is definitely not the plane connected to the teleportation center, and it is unlikely to be opened by the plane key."

"So, Captain Cletina, can you share with us how you traveled to the designated alien plane?"

A strange look immediately appeared on the faces of Cletina and the team members behind her.

She chuckled and explained, "In fact, you only need to upgrade the teleportation center to level 4 to unlock the free teleportation function. At that time, after entering the plane coordinates, the system will charge the corresponding survival points as a fee based on the distance of the teleportation."

"It turns out that the level of the team headquarters is not high enough." Li Ming nodded. This answer was roughly consistent with his previous guess. He asked Cletina just for further confirmation.

"Let's get back to the point. I can give you this L8 grade crystal core, but you need to agree to two conditions."

Claytina gracefully extended her right hand and made an inviting gesture, "Please speak."

"First, I hope that all the L7-grade crystal cores that can be found through crystal butterflies on the second floor of the Ice Abyss will belong to us." Li Ming put forward his first condition, and then added, "Also, I remember you said before that a total of nine statues were found on the second floor of the Ice Abyss, right?"

Claytina chuckled and said jokingly, "So you've been waiting for me here for a long time."

After that, she nodded readily, "Okay, I agree to this condition, please continue."

"As for the second condition..." Li Ming paused slightly, as if he was carefully considering every word, "First of all, I sincerely wish you all the best and success in obtaining the priceless treasure."

"But then again, we all know that life won't always be smooth sailing, and setbacks and accidents are always inevitable."

"If, I mean if, you encounter difficulties during the treasure hunt and need help from the outside world, I believe that our team will be the best partner. What do you think?"

Claytina's pale golden eyes flashed with a teasing look, and she said with a half-smile: "After saying so much, the last sentence is your true intention."

"I'm not a saint, how could I not have any ideas at all?" Li Ming looked calm, "But the final decision is still in the hands of you, Captain Claytina, isn't it?"

Hearing this, several members of the 'Starfall' team nodded slowly.

They thought that the conditions proposed by Li Ming were not excessive. As he had just said, whether to seek cooperation with other teams was entirely up to their own choice.

However, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of Cletina's mouth.

She saw things more deeply than anyone else; what Li Ming said was a blatant conspiracy.

If she chooses to agree, then if she encounters difficulties in the next action and needs to continue to improve her resistance to ice elements, she will have no choice but to seek cooperation from Li Ming.

By then, Li Ming would definitely ask her to hand over the plane coordinates as a bargaining chip for cooperation between the two parties.

But now, if she chooses to refuse, it will appear that she lacks sincerity.

After all, what Li Ming said was right. The initiative was always in their own hands, although this so-called "initiative" was limited to some extent.

For a moment, the whole scene fell into silence.

Claytina's hesitation made Dongmen Qiansha and Yunshan quite unhappy.

They were thinking, our captain has already made such a huge concession, why are you still hesitating? Do you want to get something for free?

After more than ten seconds of silence, Clatina finally made a decision.

She was not an indecisive person. After realizing that she could not refuse Li Ming's conditions, she could only nod and agree helplessly.

At this point, all five L8 grade crystal cores have been distributed.

The members of the 'Meteoric Star' team were naturally overjoyed, but Dongmen Qiansha and Yunshan were a little unwilling.

They couldn't understand why Li Ming, who was always shrewd and never willing to suffer a loss, would be so generous to give the crystal core to the other party this time.

Of course, this slightly subtle atmosphere did not affect the subsequent actions of the two teams.

There are currently nine known statues on the second layer of the Ice Abyss. Although the number is not small, the distances between them are very far.

It took the group nearly three hundred hours to dig out all the crystal cores guided by the nine crystal butterflies.

With the crystal butterfly as their guide, they did not encounter any monsters, but they almost met the other two teams.

Fortunately, Li Ming gave an advance warning, so Jingdie was not accidentally exposed.

In the end, everyone harvested a total of thirty-five L7 grade ice element crystal cores. The luck cannot be said to be very good, but it is not too bad either, and is considered to be average.

This time, the mission of finding high-level ice element crystal cores has been successfully completed, and we even unexpectedly obtained ten much-needed force attribute crystal cores, which can be said to be a great harvest.

Li Ming and the other two did not waste any more time. After saying a brief goodbye to Cletina and the others, they immediately communicated with the system and started the return procedure.

Different from the experience in the previous two planes, when starting the return journey from Bingyuan, a period of time must be spent on teleportation preparation.

Since they were on the second level of the Ice Abyss, the preparation time for transmission was longer, requiring as long as thirty minutes.

As the return program started, a faint golden light gradually emanated from the three people.

They looked at each other, both showing some helplessness.

During this long waiting period, they must remain still and not move at will, otherwise the return journey will be immediately terminated by the system.

At the Meteor Team headquarters, the long-silent transmission center suddenly burst out with two dazzling beams of light. They were like the brightest fireworks in the night sky, breaking through the sky with unstoppable force and piercing the clouds, attracting a lot of attention.

At this moment, the spacious and empty hall was empty and extremely quiet.

Li Ming and his two companions, who had just returned from the extremely cold cave, had not yet had time to think carefully before a huge virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of them, with a series of detailed information scrolling rapidly on it...
