Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!
Chapter 589: 1 Second Time Difference
Sikong Mingshen obviously didn't fall for the flattery. He replied coldly, "Where's the key to my team's treasure chest? Take it out and show it to me."
"Here it is." Zhan Shibang quickly took out the key from the system backpack and flashed it. "I dare not lose such an important thing."
Seeing the word "Tianyu" engraved on the red crystal key, Sikong Mingshen's expression eased a little.
He simply instructed, "Keep it safe."
Afterwards, he transformed into an imperceptible spiritual entity and left the lounge.
The departure of Sikong Mingshen instantly reduced the aura pressure in the room a lot.
"With him in the room, I feel like I can't breathe." Tong Xin patted his chest and let out a long breath, as if to expel the depressed feeling in his heart.
The middle-aged man with a flat head also said with deep feeling: "His aura is too strong, which invisibly brings huge pressure to people."
"Humph, what's so great about that?" Deyuan felt unhappy. "No matter how powerful he is, he is still under our control."
James Bang glanced at his teammates calmly, but he was thinking about something else in his mind.
If Li Ming really suspected them, he would definitely take some precautions when choosing the quantity of crystals to transport.
What kind of ability does Sikong Mingshen have that he can accurately guess the number of crystals in the absence of any information?
On the other side, when most of the rest time had passed, Li Ming and his teammates had gradually woken up.
After more than an hour's rest, although their physical and mental strength have not yet fully recovered, they have recovered to about 80%.
At this moment, several people were discussing in low voices the next transportation strategy and the precautions against the 'Wrath of the God of War' team.
Not long after, James Bond and his team were waiting outside the door with transport boxes.
Li Ming winked at the three people next to him, and then chose to allow them to enter through the prompt box on the system's main interface.
"Captain Li Ming, I'm so sorry for oversleeping a little." Zhan Shibang expressed his apologies as soon as he entered the door.
"It's still more than ten minutes before it starts. It's not too late." Li Ming showed a faint smile on his face.
Zhan Shibang carefully observed Li Ming's expression and found nothing unusual, so he began to talk about the problem of crystal transportation. "I'm afraid we're in trouble this time, because we only dug up two crystals. Even if the other party makes a random guess, there is a 50% chance that they will guess correctly."
"It doesn't matter. I only plan to transport one crystal this time. It's okay to give you one. You can still choose to transport three crystals." Li Ming said generously.
Zhan Shibang was slightly stunned, then he understood Li Ming's intention and quickly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you very much, Captain Li Ming, but we don't necessarily have to transport three crystals."
"As long as you transport the crystals first, it will be difficult for Gibson to guess how much we actually transported. They might mistakenly think that I took one of your crystals and guess that we transported three."
"But at this time, if we choose to transport two pieces, there should be a good chance that they can pass customs smoothly."
At this time, Tong Xin said with some hesitation: "Captain, I personally think it would be safer to transport a crystal."
"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed across James Bang's face. "Why do you say that?"
Tong Xin explained: "Gipson has used a similar strategy before, so he will definitely be more cautious and will not be likely to guess the three crystals."
"The remaining options are only one or two pieces. Considering various factors, the other party is likely to tend to guess that we transported two crystals, because this is the least risky and the most potential profit for them."
"If they guess right, our transportation plan will fail. Even if they guess wrong, we can only successfully transport one crystal."
"In that case, why don't we just transport the three crystals?" De Zheng asked, "After all, you just said that they are unlikely to use the three crystals as a guess."
"I just said it's possible, not certain." Tong Xin spread her hands helplessly and continued, "Generally speaking, the risk of transporting three crystals is the greatest, the risk of transporting two is slightly smaller, and the risk of transporting only one is the lowest."
"Uh..." De Zheng was speechless for a moment, then he retorted, "You're talking nonsense, aren't you? It can't be that the more crystals we transport, the lower the risk, right?"
"You can say that." Tong Xin chuckled and didn't mean to argue. "However, the final decision on how many crystals to transport still depends on the captain's opinion."
"Hmm..." James Bang rubbed his chin with his fingers, pretending to be in deep thought. In fact, their team didn't care whether the transportation was successful or not, because these crystals originally belonged to the 'Tianyu' team and had no direct interest to them.
But the show had to go on, so as not to arouse suspicion from the members of the Meteor team.
After all, there is no reason not to care about the success rate of your team's crystal transportation.
He pretended to ponder for a moment, still seemingly hesitant, and then suddenly turned to Li Ming and asked why he chose to transport only one crystal this time.
"Let's play it safe." Li Ming sighed and explained with some helplessness, "Sikong Ming's aura is too strong. I must try to break his guess in order to resolve the current situation."
"I understand." James Bang nodded slightly, "This is indeed an effective strategy to break the deadlock."
He paused for a moment, as if he had made up his mind. "In that case, let's choose to transport a crystal. For our team, the most important thing right now is to be able to transport crystals stably. The quantity has become a secondary factor."
"Yeah." Li Ming responded casually without saying much.
After the two teams agreed on the quantity of crystals to be transported, the break was about to end.
Everyone didn't stay long and prepared to leave the room and head to the transportation area.
However, just as they stepped into the living room, Li Ming seemed to slow down his pace intentionally or unintentionally and fell in the middle of the team. Compared with the four members of the 'Wrath of the God of War' team, he came out about a second later.
Normally, such small details are difficult to catch people's attention, but they caused a sense of gloom in the hearts of James Bang and others.
Because Sikong Mingshen had warned them in advance, reminding them that Li Ming might make a test.
Therefore, this tiny time difference of one second becomes particularly prominent in this situation and is difficult to ignore.
Originally, Zhan Shibang and others were skeptical about Sikong Mingshen's warning, but now they were convinced that Li Ming was indeed suspicious of them.
The few of them exchanged glances calmly, understanding each other tacitly. On the surface, they remained calm and did not show anything unusual.
