Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

"A dedicated liaison?" Su Li asked, puzzled.

"Yes, Zheng Hongyuan used to be your contact, but later, he also had to participate in the exploration and couldn't keep in touch with you all the time."

Zhang Qiang explained, "The Blue Star government had too many things to do before, such as ensuring the supply of materials to the people, urban construction planning, government building, and coordinating with the Radiant Venerable, all of which took a lot of time. Only after these were completed did the Blue Star government begin to assemble a dedicated coordination team."

Su Li nodded, indicating that important teams would be received by designated personnel. Such liaison teams are actually quite difficult to manage.

The connection is based on the system functions of the Eternal Game; the transmission of information and the trading of items are all derived from this. To utilize these functions, one must have a player identity; to retain that identity, one must continuously explore the world.

"We will join a dedicated team to explore low-energy worlds, not to do missions, but simply to retain our player identity."

That's a good method.

Zhang Qiang looked around at the Su Li team and then said, "If you have no further questions, let's move on to the next step and talk about the reward distribution."

"Don't panic, first explain to us who that woman was?" Su Li raised her hand to stop them. "I have a feeling something's up here."

Zhang Qiang glanced at Su Li, then quickly glanced at Sun Keke.

Su Li narrowed his eyes. Why was he specifically looking at Sun Keke? Then it dawned on him: Sun Keke could tell fortunes and use divination to find out the problems.

Zhang Qiang took a breath and then said, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh."

"You demonstrated extraordinary combat prowess in this operation, which is why some people have set their sights on you."

Su Li raised an eyebrow. "Trying to mess with me?"

"No, you misunderstand. They don't have that kind of guts. They want to pull you into their team and then use your name to fight for power and profit, or to secure their own future."

"This isn't Earth anymore; strength is everything. Having a powerful person join the team is like having a pillar of strength. That's why they've prepared a beautiful woman, hoping to find an opportunity to join your team."

Su Li nodded and commented, "The technique is too rough."

Zhang Qiang smiled slightly, "The leader of a tiny country on Earth, barely the size of a palm, has no experience. It's just that things have been too chaotic these days, and they took advantage of the situation."

Su Li's smile faded, her face hardening as she tapped the table with her fingers. "But this is a very bad sign. We agreed before that the explorers are the explorers, and the Blue Star government is the Blue Star government."

This was a private agreement between the advanced explorers and the Blue Star government.

The explorers' lives revolve around exploring fragments of the world, and they have little interest in political struggles.

An explorer who spends seven days exploring and only one day returning home, even if he has great power in Blue Star City, is not very useful.

In Blue Star City, advanced explorers mainly obtain basic resources. Even Titanium is difficult for them to acquire; otherwise, how could the entire Blue Star civilization only have three level 6 trains?

Higher-level resources are unavailable in Blue Star City. The truly valuable items are mostly circulated among top professionals, such as Su Li's Elemental Theory skill book. They wouldn't share it with the Blue Star government.

Only when Zu Li and his group have thoroughly understood this book will it be possible to trade with others.

Zurich admitted that the Blue Star government currently possessed some resources that even he envied. However, as their strength increased, the Blue Star City, composed of Blue Star citizens who had relinquished their player identities, would offer them less and less assistance.

This was inevitable. The development of Blue Star City could not keep up with the progress of the explorers.

While top players like Su Li were starting to pursue items of gold grade or higher, Blue Star City was probably still stuck with low-grade items of iron and silver.

Advanced players who collude with factions within the Blue Star government may eventually cause the Blue Star government to split apart; there are precedents for this in the game Eternal.

Some had already foreseen this, so they proposed that players' affairs remain with the players, and the Blue Star government's affairs remain with the Blue Star government. Neither side should form factions. This was also agreed upon by most high-level players.

The best approach at this stage is for the Blue Star government to focus on logistical support and manage the rear base effectively, allowing players at the front to explore without any concerns.

There may be better methods in the future, but that's a matter for the future.

Su Li was also worried about something else. It had only been a short time, and there were already cliques forming. Would this lead to the embezzlement of supplies?

Just thinking about Zurich gives me a headache. I feel that politics is really complicated. It's better for him to go out and explore the world.

As he explored the world, Zu Li increasingly felt the allure of discovery. He used to dream of becoming a big capitalist or a high-ranking leader; now, even his dreams revolved around exploring the unknown.

It's already taken on the shape of an expansion site!

After discussing this matter, the previous incident can be considered closed. Su Li didn't want to get involved in this kind of political struggle; it was annoying.

Then, Su Li and Zhang Qiang talked about the reward for this. Everyone went to so much trouble to kill Lin Feng, this big whale.

It is said that when one whale dies, all things are born. The death of Lin Feng, this big silly whale, should at least give everyone a piece of meat.

Su Li didn't expect to get too many good items, because there were thousands of people participating in this operation, and these thousands of people were basically top players. The fat on Lin Feng's body was really not enough for everyone to eat.

Zhang Qiang handed Su Li a booklet. "Lin Feng's train has been dismantled by us. It's a pity that the train is unclaimed; players can't occupy it, they can only dismantle it to get some materials."

"We've compiled a list of all the items Lin Feng has and categorized them according to their contributions. You can take a look and see if there are any items you like. If multiple players are interested in the same item, we'll organize an offline meeting for them to discuss it."

Su Li picked up the booklet and began to look through the props inside.

At the very front is Lin Feng's equipment. That priceless helmet—it's obvious it'll be fought over fiercely.

After reviewing the attributes of various equipment, Su Li flipped to the back. As mentioned before, Lin Feng was a Pixiu, so his resources were extremely abundant and diverse.
