Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!

Five Star Square is located on a vast and flat plateau, beyond the hustle and bustle of any main city.

It was created to provide a solemn and sacred place of gathering and worship for affiliated religious species.

Therefore, here, the five statues of gods devoutly worshipped by the five major clans stand side by side, jointly guarding this holy land of faith.

At this moment, although the Holy See is still mired in the quagmire of war, there is still an endless stream of believers coming here to worship.

Among them, alien creatures accounted for the majority. They came to the Five-Star Square devoutly to offer their respect and prayers to the statue.

When Xingmei, Yunshan and Dongmen Qiansha shifted their consciousness to the statue in the Five Star Square, their perception immediately locked onto an extremely familiar figure.

That figure was leisurely holding the slender hand of a young girl and strolling leisurely in the bustling square.

"Oh my god! Look at what Li Ming is doing!" Yun Shan couldn't help but scream, "We are racking our brains to find a way to fight against the Dark Temple, but he has the leisure to pick up girls, and she is so young!"

Dongmen Qiansha was shocked by Yunshan's words and quickly defended herself, "Don't talk nonsense. The captain is definitely not that kind of person."

"Don't joke around, this is no joke." Cecily warned seriously, "But it's a bit strange, how did the little man leave the statue? According to the rules of the game, we shouldn't be able to leave the statue."

"Cecily, don't you think that girl's face is strangely familiar?" Xingmei suddenly spoke up, with a hint of doubt and inquiry in her tone.

"Huh? Now that you mention it, it is true..." Cecily's attention was originally focused on Li Ming, and she did not pay much attention to the girl next to her.

At this moment, after being reminded by Xingmei, she looked carefully at the girl in the beige dress and found that she was very similar to an old friend in her memory.

"Who are you talking about?" Yun Shan interrupted curiously. Her eyes also moved around the girl, but she couldn't find any familiar traces.

"Well, you don't know him. He's someone I met in a game a long time ago," Cecily explained simply.

When Dongmen Qiansha heard this, she immediately understood.

As the last member to join the team, it was normal for her to be unfamiliar with the characters that Cecily and Xingmei had met in the game before.

"Let's just ask Li Ming and see if we can pass our divine thoughts to him." Xingmei suggested.

As soon as she finished her words, Li Ming's divine thoughts suddenly echoed in the minds of the four people, "Don't try, I have heard your conversation."

"Li Ming, you're really going too far!" Yun Shan screamed in a very dissatisfied tone, "We've been working so hard for the future of the clan, and you've left the statue to hang out and play."

"You think too much. I'm busy all the time, so how can I have the energy to travel?" Li Ming replied calmly.

"Little man, how did you get away from the statue? Doesn't this violate the rules of the game?" Cecily was obviously more concerned about this matter.

"Uh..." Li Ming hesitated for a moment, then explained, "This is actually an incarnation that I condensed using energy. Before, it was too illusory and beyond your perception."

"Now that this incarnation has become much stronger, it can be revealed to you."

Cecily reacted instantly and asked, "Is this the mysterious power you mentioned last time that cannot be traced back to its origin?"

"Yes." Li Ming replied affirmatively, "Now I can use this ever-increasing mysterious power more freely, but unfortunately, I still don't know where its source comes from."

At this time, Xingmei suddenly asked, "Li Ming, what's the name of the girl next to you?"

"Her name is Li Yaoyao." Li Ming replied.

"Don't you realize that she looks a lot like someone?" Xingmei further suggested.

"Of course I noticed it." Li Ming looked down at the girl beside him, then said, "But to be honest, I don't know the reason."

"There must be some kind of connection!" Cecily asserted, "This girl is not a divine messenger, but her strength far exceeds that of ordinary people."

"This must be the result of your use of mysterious power to strengthen it, right? Therefore, this cannot be explained by mere coincidence."

Of course Li Ming has thought deeply about the connection, but he has no clue at the moment.

Then, they turned the focus of the discussion to the issue of territory defense.

"The casualties among ordinary people are quite serious now. Li Ming, should we shrink our defense line?" Yun Shan expressed her concerns.

Li Ming's tone was very cold, "No, continue to expand."

"Huh?" Dongmen Qiansha was shocked and quickly explained, "Captain, in the past month, the death toll of ordinary people from the five major clans has reached nearly 10,000, and the number of injured is countless."

“Under these circumstances, should we still stick to our expansion strategy?”

Li Ming's expression remained unmoved, and he replied in a deep voice: "There will always be casualties in war. Compared with our rapid development momentum, these casualties are not enough to become a stumbling block on our road to expansion."

"Besides, the Dark Temple's army is not infinite. Their forces are constantly being consumed in attacks. As time goes by, it will become increasingly difficult for them to cause damage."

"Therefore, what you need to do now is to make the Holy See withstand the pressure and continue to expand its territory."

"You are too cold-blooded. They are all our descendants created by our own hands." Yunshan showed some dissatisfaction.

"Haha, if you have such an idea, it means that your mind is not yet mature in commanding troops and fighting." Li Ming smiled indifferently, seeming to not care about Yunshan's accusations.

Yunshan retorted unconvincedly: "Why am I not suitable for leading troops in battle?"

After thinking for a moment, Li Ming slowly spoke, "As the commander-in-chief, your primary consideration is how to achieve the established strategic goals."

"Unless the casualties are severe enough to prevent that from happening, then casualties are not something you need to consider."

"Take our battle with the Dark Temple Legion as an example. They only sent more than a million troops each time, like squeezing toothpaste, but were always unwilling to send out a large army that could crush us all at once."

"What does this show? It shows that they are also facing the dilemma of shortage of manpower and cannot provide more support."

"If we shrink our front lines and reduce our development and living space at this moment because of a few casualties, it will play into the other side's hands."

"Because their main goal right now is to curb our momentum."
