Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!

Li Ming put two death attribute crystal cores that were floating in the air and exuding a breath of withering into his backpack, then looked at Gibson's departing back, chuckled, and thought to himself, as long as you still have the ambition to make progress, that's enough.

Five minutes later, the eighth crystal transportation mission was officially launched.

The first to sit at the two ends of the red crystal table were still Sikong Mingshen and Li Ming.

Li Ming stared at the shipping box on the table and said calmly, "I just heard a piece of gossip that you are planning to transport two crystal stones this time. This makes me a little embarrassed. I don't know whether I should let you pass smoothly."

Sikong Mingshen's eyes condensed slightly, and then he turned his head to glance at Gibson outside the door.

Gibson's heart tightened and he instinctively wanted to avoid that sharp gaze.

But he changed his mind and thought, since the other party had made it clear that they did not want them to advance, then there was nothing to worry about.

So he straightened his back again and met the other person's gaze without fear.

Sikong Mingshen retracted his cold gaze and looked at the person opposite him again, with a bit of disdain in his tone, "Haven't you given up on advancing? Why are you still playing these little tricks?"

"It is precisely because we have given up the promotion that we need to recover some of the costs." Li Ming said lightly, "Now, you have a great opportunity to bribe me."

"The price is very fair. You only need an L7 non-element crystal core to pass the level smoothly."

"Hmph, my 'Tianyu' team doesn't have to pay any price to advance. Just tell me your guess. Don't waste time. Finishing early will give you a few more minutes of rest." Sikong Mingshen said coldly.

When James Bang, who was standing outside, saw this scene, he couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.

He felt that Sikong Mingshen was too stingy. It was obvious that he could pass the level easily by paying a tiny insignificant price, but he was reluctant to give up those material possessions.

If they can pass this time, the total number of crystals they transport will reach eleven, thus basically securing a spot in the next round.

This will undoubtedly greatly reduce the burden on the two alliance teams.

In the end, because Sikong Mingshen refused to bribe Li Ming, their transportation mission ended in failure and both crystals were confiscated by the system.

The 'Meteor' team naturally failed to pass the crystal transportation mission, and a crystal in the transportation box was also confiscated by the system.

Next, it was the turn of the 'Flower of Evolution' and 'Wrath of the God of War' teams to carry out the crystal transportation mission.

Both James Bond and Gibson knew Li Ming's thoughts very well.

He will not let any team take the lead in the competition easily, but will wait for the final decisive battle.

At that time, only those with higher bids will have the opportunity to stand out and win the precious qualification for promotion.

So, this transportation process was actually just a routine matter.

The two of them each took out a crystal, and then accurately guessed the number of crystals the other had, resulting in the failure of both transportation missions.

At this point, the eighth round has come to an end.

This round was a bit special, as no team successfully completed the crystal transportation mission.

Therefore, the ranking remains the same, and the 'Tianyu' team still sits firmly at the top of the list with nine crystals.

Following closely behind were the 'Flower of Evolution' and 'Wrath of the God of War' teams, who were tied for second place with seven crystals.

The 'Meteor' team was ranked far at the bottom because it only transported four crystals, with a clear gap compared to other teams.

As for the remaining crystals, the 'Yanzhihua' team still took the lead, holding the largest number of five crystals.

Next is the 'Wrath of the God of War' team, they still have two crystals left.

The crystals of the 'Tianyu' team and the 'Liuxing' team have been used up and the inventory is now cleared.

As the game progresses to the ninth round, the task of digging for crystals becomes increasingly arduous and frightening.

The four teams gathered in the crystal mining area, and no one spoke.

Like zombies, they mechanically took turns knocking on the crystals exposed on the ground to loosen them before digging them out.

Forty-five minutes later, Li Ming and his companions walked out of the crystal mining area slowly and heavily, carrying a crystal stone they had just excavated.

Ten minutes later, members of the 'Tianyu' team and the 'Wrath of the God of War' team also left this torturous mining area, each carrying a crystal.

At this time, only members of the 'Yanzhihua' team were left in the crystal mining area.

Under the pressure of time, they finally dug out a crystal at the last moment.

As the gate to the crystal mining area slowly closed, the game entered its break time.

The entire space was shrouded in a deep silence. The air was filled with a solemn atmosphere, and there was no sound to break the tranquility.

Only half an hour later, Li Ming was suddenly awakened from his sleep by a rapid reminder sound.

He did not get up immediately, but after a long yawn, he let Gibson, who was waiting outside the door, in.

He slowly sat up from the sofa, his eyes first fell on the timer next to him, and then he said to Gibson with some helplessness: "Brother, there is still an hour left in the break time, so there is no need to be so anxious about the bidding."

Gibson was equally exhausted, suffering from general weakness and severe headaches.

But now is not the time to rest, the game has entered the final decisive stage.

To ensure his team's advancement, he must deploy some unusual strategies.

"Captain Li Ming, I would like to make an additional offer."

"Extra charge? What does that mean?" Li Ming frowned slightly. On the one hand, he was puzzled, and on the other hand, his head felt as if it was torn apart.

Gibson explained patiently: "It's simple. James Bond and I will continue our secret bidding as usual."

"But now, I will give you an additional offer, on the condition that you must act as the prosecutor during the transportation of the crystals by our team and ensure that we can pass through customs smoothly."

"I see. It does sound simple. However, it seems a bit unfair to the 'Wrath of the God of War' team." Li Ming gently twisted his shoulders with an elusive smile on his face, which seemed to be both agreement and mockery.

"Of course I know that Captain Li Ming has always adhered to fairness." Gibson said as he waved his arms lightly. Two huge crystal cores flashed, gleaming with golden threads and shining brightly.

He caught the look of astonishment on the other's face, and couldn't help but smile smugly, "But unfortunately, James Bond obviously doesn't understand this principle, since he is so ignorant of the current situation."

"Then, Captain Li Ming, you don't have to abide by the principle of fairness to such people anymore, right?"

Li Ming swallowed slightly, slowly moved his eyes away from the crystal core with golden threads, and sighed in a low voice: "Two L7 level time attribute crystal cores, Captain Gibson, your courage is really extraordinary."

"Haha, as long as we can successfully advance to the quarterfinals, all this will be worth it." Although his heart was bleeding with pain, Gibson still tried hard to pretend that he didn't care.
