Chapter 2325

Nameless Saint led a group of Qiyuezhe back to the base camp, having returned empty-handed after a busy half-day. What made him even more uncomfortable was that the Suicide Squad remained in the nearby area, neither attacking nor approaching. Once pursued, those six people would disappear without a trace within a short time.

The morale of the Apocalypse Paradise side was at an all-time low. Upon returning to the base camp, Nameless Saint announced that they would abandon the competition for the Spacetime Power Condensate for the first four days. The two Spacetime Power Condensates required for the group mission could be snatched during the last six days regardless. For the first four days, they would let the other four sides clash with each other while they preserved their combat strength.

This proposal received widespread support.

"Saint, we trust you."

"I said it before, the Saint won't let us go to our deaths."

Successive compliments interrupted Nameless Saint's thoughts. He had been considering how they had been played. During the Strongest Contest, he had arranged for Afni of Saint Light Paradise to be completely outplayed, and at the time, he even lamented that he had become the very old schemer he once hated most.

After what had just happened, Nameless Saint discovered, with both misery and relief, that he hadn't become an old schemer. At least compared to those old schemers from Samsara Paradise, he could at most be considered to have some brains, but still not enough.

Nameless Saint felt that if he had entered Samsara Paradise initially, he might not have survived the First Tier.

"Old schemers deserve no good end."

Nameless Saint muttered under his breath, and several Qiyuezhe nearby looked at him in confusion.

"Saint, what did you just say?"

"Nothing. We cannot waste these four days."

"Then what should we do?"

"Need you ask?" Nameless Saint's mouth curled up almost uncontrollably as he continued, "Of course, we go find mineral deposits to make up for our losses."

"Roar~"

A cheer erupted. Compared to fighting and killing, mining was indeed a very happy thing; the returns were high, the risks were low, and every shovel of ore could potentially yield a harvest.

"Competing for the Spacetime Power Condensate is nothing more than to seize resources, so we will dig out resources of equal value!"

After the cheers and laughter, the atmosphere gradually became relaxed and joyful. In Apocalypse Paradise, mining was the source of happiness.

Located a few kilometers away from the Apocalypse Paradise base camp, Poison Master, Fatty, and the others were in a cave. This was their temporary stronghold, and at this moment, the expressions on the faces of the six were somewhat strange.

"Actually going to mine? This... there's no solution to this."

Dudu dudu~

Just as Poison Master finished speaking, the communicator hanging on the rock wall rang.

"Dean, I'm here, cough cough cough~"

Poison Master coughed dryly, his pale complexion making him look like he could drop dead at any moment.

"How is the situation on the Apocalypse Paradise side?"

"They..."

"Are they going to mine? Given the current situation, Saint will at most let those miners work for three to four days. Don't worry about them anymore. Go and say hello to Saint Light Paradise, but don't make a move yet."

The Dean's words made Poison Master smile bitterly. When the Dean, that old schemer, shifted the blame to Apocalypse Paradise, he probably already anticipated this current situation.

"The Apocalypse Paradise side won't be too active within four days."

The communication was hung up, and Poison Master looked at the other five.

"We're transferring to the Saint Light Paradise side. Go and 'greet' them first, but don't make a move."

Samsara Paradise base camp, restaurant area.

"As expected, Apocalypse Paradise is temporarily out of the game. As for Saint Light, the Suicide Squad will go and monitor them. Of the remaining Cult and Death Paradise, we need to eliminate one within four days."

The Dean put down the communicator in his hand, picked up the strong tea on the table, and sipped it slowly while blowing on the steam.

"Screw it, let's just charge straight in."

Diamond King slapped the table. Su Xiao, who was currently playing a puzzle game, paused and looked up at Diamond King.

"Of course we will charge in, but now we just need to wait."

The Dean glanced at Diamond King, the implication being: you'd better behave yourself; if this guy wants to kill you, I can't stop him.

Su Xiao put away his tablet. He had already deduced what the Dean's next move would be. The next step of the plan was simple and brutal: wait for the second Spacetime Power Condensate to appear. When that time came, the Death Paradise side would definitely move to seize it.

Currently, the most comfortable ones were Death Paradise and Sanctuary Paradise, so they had the highest probability of finding the Spacetime Power Condensate.

When that time came, it would be time to draw blades. If things went smoothly, they would cripple Apocalypse Paradise in the first round and send them away in the second.

The night of the first day arrived, the sky was filled with stars, and the area around the base camp was brightly lit. Nearby Qiyuezhe were in groups of three or five. When not fighting, a small portion of their own Qiyuezhe didn't look fierce; one fellow even set up a drawing board to sketch a body portrait for a mature woman.

Seeing this scene, Bubu Wang's heart remained completely unmoved. During the day, it clearly remembered that this fellow had torn off an enemy's head and hung it on his waist as a souvenir. Now, when there was no fighting, he appeared somewhat artistic.

A sound of wind breaking came, and Baja descended from above. It had searched for a day and hadn't found any Spacetime Power Condensate; it had searched the entire area.

The Spacetime Power Condensate was actually very conspicuous, with turbulence of spacetime power nearby. Currently, only one had been discovered, which meant the other Spacetime Power Condensates had been picked up by others.

This was not Su Xiao's speculation; Baja had discovered many corpses of orcs and unknown species within a hundred-kilometer area.

The orcs were the indigenous residents of this world, and the unknown creatures should be the xenomorphs.

The Spacetime Crystals that had fallen previously had already been picked up by the orcs and xenomorphs. They didn't have dispersal devices, so they filled the gaps with human lives.

After the five paradises descended, the orcs and xenomorphs were dispersed, and with numerous Qiyuezhe here, the orcs and xenomorphs dared not easily step into this area.

This meant that the orcs and xenomorphs should have quite a few Spacetime Crystals in their hands. The falling period lasted 15 days in total, and now only 10 days remained. The Spacetime Crystals that fell in the first 5 days were all in the hands of those two sides.

For Su Xiao, this was a good thing. Even if the Dean's scheme went wrong and led to a crushing defeat for the Samsara Paradise side, as long as Su Xiao didn't die in this defeat, he would still have a chance.

"Boss, that shooting star is really bright."

Baja shook the feathers on its body; after flying at high speed all afternoon, its wings were a bit sore.

"Shooting star?"

Su Xiao looked up. Indeed, a 'shooting star' was falling from the sky. Judging by the trajectory, the landing point was just a few dozen kilometers away.

【Announcement: Spacetime Power Condensate is about to land.】

What was in the sky was not a shooting star, but the Spacetime Power Condensate about to fall.

A bright light flashed in the distance; the Spacetime Power Condensate had landed. The strong light that exploded upon impact could be seen clearly even from a great distance.

The opportunity the Dean was waiting for had arrived. Good news suddenly came from the Mad Doctor's side: Death Paradise and Sanctuary Paradise had joined forces. The alliance of assassins and charlatans—one could imagine their combat power.

Upon learning this news, the Dean immediately terminated tonight's plan. He even went back into the spaceship to make himself a small dish, took a bottle of strong liquor from Luoluo, and sat in a corner drinking alone. From this, one could see how good his mood was; a good show was about to begin.
