Ark, please stop getting mad at the host's operators

Looking at the message sent by the other party, Li Ji raised his eyebrow slightly and asked.

"It's very simple. All the teams inside are either missing or dead. Now you are the only ones left... and because you don't know how to broadcast live, Gaul chose you."

"So fast?"

Li Ji looked at the message sent by Lancao with some surprise.

Although the death of other teams was not unexpected, Li Ji could not have imagined that he and Raven would be the only ones left so soon.

Lan Cao ignored Li Ji's interruption and continued to send his message:

"If you are willing to cooperate with Gaul, we will share all the existing intelligence with you."

"Am I not working with Gaul right now?"

Li Ji glanced at the raven behind him and wondered if this guy had even been stripped of his nationality.

"Captain Wanfeng, you're joking. Although the Azure Wings is affiliated with Gaul, I represent the highest instructions from Gaul... which is the official opinion."

Lancao didn't stop, and his fingers quickly typed out the next paragraph.

"And as far as I know, Raven's intelligence is only limited to the third level."

"The information I can provide you now is far more than this."

"The information we released to the outside world only focused on the second boss of the fifth floor, Scarlet Blood Diamond Lucien."

"But in fact, we also have some understanding of the bosses of other endings. Although we haven't completed the game, we have figured out most of their mechanisms."

"We have also arrested the fusion faction that intensified the rift, and obtained some special intelligence in a special way. The rift is now in a different state than before it was intensified."

"Based on the changes we have seen so far, although your collection and attributes are good enough now, if you don't plan your recruitment and routes well, you will most likely not be able to get out!"

……

After receiving another long string of messages from Lancao, Li Ji simply replied with four words:

"What's the price?"

The other party talked so much in a long-winded way, but Li Ji could only see the word "business" in his words, and could not see any "sincerity" at all.

If the other party really wanted to provide him with information...why give so many prefixes?

All you need to say is: 'You are the only hope now. This information is given to you. You must survive!'

Isn’t that the end of it?

Now what Lancao said was nothing more than an attempt to give Li Ji a sense of crisis, so that Lancao or the Gaul high-level officials could achieve their goals.

"Nothing, just wait for you to come out and meet two small conditions from Gaul."

Lancao also quickly gave the conditions, and even added considerately, "All you have to do is persuade Raven to vote for the current Prime Minister in the election in a month, and when you come out, Gaul will give priority to choosing one of the collections you brought out, and the other collections we didn't choose will be yours."

"So good, a small condition can be exchanged for subsequent intelligence?"

"Of course. And this is what the higher-ups mean. There is no need to lie to you. However, this information is very important... You must turn off the live broadcast."

Outside, Lancao was in a makeshift tent. In addition to several members of the Golden Iris team, there were also many middle-aged men in suits.

After seeing the message sent by Li Ji, they nodded with relief, as if they were waiting for Li Ji to agree to this simple request.

This requirement can be said to be very simple, and they gave these conditions after much discussion.

Information about the subsequent boss and route planning, this is something that others dare not even think about.

In this crack that everyone is seeing for the first time, intelligence can be said to be the most important thing.

Fighting the Boss with intelligence and fighting without intelligence are two completely different experiences.

And the price was just an unnecessary persuasion, they didn't even say that Li Ji's persuasion must succeed.

Then you only need to pay the price of one collection.

Wan Feng: [Such good conditions are really exciting! ]

Seeing the reply from Li Ji, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, because it now seemed that there was a high probability that the negotiations would be successful.

But... just when they all thought they were about to succeed.

Several cold words appeared on the screen:

[But I refuse.]

Chapter 31: Restrictions

Inside the tent outside the crack.

Those who originally wanted to high-five each other to express their success all stood there with their hands raised.

They didn't understand why the other party would not agree to such a simple request.

They were sure that apart from themselves, no one else could provide him with this information.

"He doesn't think he can get through it alone, does he...?"

Antoinette leaned back in her chair, and her hands, which were originally half raised in the air, were awkwardly put together and placed on the table.

If there wasn't a ready-made team that had already reached the third floor and the collection was not so 'hu', Antoinette would not have offered such generous treatment.

But he never expected that the other party would directly reject the deal.

If Gaul didn't have the joint team of Rhodes Island and Azure Wings, they could have relied on intelligence to figure out the way through it bit by bit, but it would have just wasted some manpower, luck and time.

But what Antoinette has to worry about now is not this...

"Minister Antoinette, maybe he doesn't know what he's going to face next. I'll talk to him again."

Lancao also pursed her lips and spoke to Antoinette.

"Under appropriate circumstances, you can ask him to increase the stakes a bit. We must get that collection, and we should also send someone to try to clear the customs. We can't put all our hopes on others."

After seeing Antoinette frown and finish the arrangements, Lancao once again started talking to Li Ji.

……

Li Ji rolled his eyes and turned off the message from Lancao.

First of all, he had no habit of sharing the spoils with others, especially the ones with a clear price tag and the requirement of "priority choice".

Secondly, Li Ji did not want to get involved in the struggle between their internal political parties. He was still leading a raven that had not taken sides. If he agreed to this request at this time, it might be regarded as taking sides.

If he signed the agreement now, even if his team was not explicitly mentioned, it would definitely be a huge landmine if something went wrong later.

He wouldn't say that Gaul knew 100% of the information he could provide, but he probably knew 90% of it.

In this situation, there was really no need for him to do the other party a favor.

After all, Gaul is a big country. We can't just surround him and not let him leave, right?

But if the other party really has no shame and insists on stopping him...

Li Ji's clear eyes now may not be as clear by then.

If he wants to run away, there are probably not many people in this world who want to keep him.

……

Lancao: [Captain Wanfeng, don't be so hasty to refuse... This time the rift was intensified by the Fusion Faction using a special method. If you don't have a reasonable intelligence plan for the next level, you will most likely die inside! ] (Unread)

Lancao: [If you are not satisfied with the conditions, we can discuss it again...] (unread)

Lancao: [……] (unread)

Lancao: “?”

Seeing that seven or eight messages had been sent in a row and all of them were unread, Lancao could no longer hold it in.

She immediately sent another SC in Li Ji's live broadcast room:

[Let me give you a piece of advice first. The boss you will encounter on the third floor will have additional restrictions. With your current lineup and collection, it will still be difficult to pass.]

"Is my current lineup and collection still difficult?"

Li Ji looked at the SC sent by Lancao and became slightly interested again.

Even if the opponent didn't see the strength of her lineup just now, she always knew about these collections.

Is it difficult even so?

[? Arashi, you don’t want to elaborate…? ]

[How come Arashi became the Riddler? I will die if I see the Riddler. Can the Riddler please get out of Gotham City!]

[Who can understand the riddle you are telling? You just said it has limitations...]

[??Isn’t this the legendary suppression by peers…?]

Although the comments were all from Gallic audiences, the rift was in an intensified state after all, and Li Ji's team also included the Azure Wings, a top-ranked Gallic native team.

They also expressed dissatisfaction with Arashi's behavior as a riddle teller.

However, when Arashi sent out the first message, he had naturally thought about what to do next.

Before the audience's complaints had gone two pages, another SC came along.

Arashi: [Boss on the third floor, you won't have any ground plots to deploy, so take a few high-platform operators now. That's all we know for now.]

It starts with the third floor and ends with the third floor, and the main point is to get it just right.

[? ]

[Damn it, if we can’t deploy on the ground, how can we fight… No block?]

[Oh no, now there is only one commander on the high platform in Wanfeng's team... and they have deployed a ground unit dragon. We can't just rely on the auxiliary operators' basic attacks to defeat the boss, right?]

[Luckily, Arashi told me in advance that there is a battle and a shop to come. Let's see if there is an operator with a high platform. With this attack speed, even a high platform is enough!]

Not only the audience, but also Raven, who had been silent on the side, couldn't help but speak after seeing the message from Arashi.

"How about you agree to them?"

She asked Li Ji in a low voice, with her eyes slightly lowered.

Obviously, when Lancao was chatting privately with Li Ji, she was also chatting privately with Raven...

However, the conditions they offered were not attractive to Raven.

Before the ravens entered the crack, they already knew that they were abandoned because they did not stand in line.

Those who wanted to survive or had the intention of joining the team had already left.

The team members who still follow her are basically those who would rather die in the cracks than take sides in the party.

Du Ya also knew that she could get here thanks to Li Ji, so she did not rashly agree to Lan Cao's request to persuade Li Ji just because of these conditions...

Even Raven was a little happy after seeing the SC sent by Arashi.

Because this means that Li Ji did not agree to the request made by Lancao.

However, after hearing about the new restrictions within the rift, Raven's idea began to waver.

But Li Ji did not answer Raven directly. Instead, he turned off the live broadcast and gently touched her head twice. "What's wrong? When I saw you laughing secretly just now, you didn't have this expression. Are the restrictions terrible?"

"Not scary."

Raven did not push Li Ji away, but let him touch his head. He lowered his head and said, "Although I don't want to take sides at this time, I don't want to drag you down because of my reasons... If possible, I can withdraw from the team with Azure Wings."

"No, you can't leave no matter who leaves!"

Li Ji resolutely rejected Raven's proposal.

This touched Raven and he thought, "He still has me in his heart!"

It's just a pity...

This feeling of gratitude had not lasted for two seconds before it was shattered by Li Ji's words.

"You are the tree that shakes people during my live broadcast. If you leave, there will be no one to suck my blood and send me popularity votes. Everyone is waiting to see you hoeing the land."

Raven: “?”

"*Gallic swear*,??? Is this what you were thinking about?"

Seeing the puzzled expression on Raven's face, Li Ji just smiled, reopened the conversation with Lancao and asked:

"Is everything you just said true?"
