Carson Flores turned around and saw a thin middle-aged man smiling at him.
"Form a team? With whom?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Secret Realm exploration is extremely dangerous. While exploring alone offers freedom and no need to share your findings, it presents greater dangers. You face not only the perils within the Secret Realm but also the looting and slaughtering from fellow cultivators. If like-minded people form a team for exploration, it's easier to gain better results and mutually protect each other."
"Perhaps acting as a group and splitting the gains might be slightly less efficient, but it offers much greater safety. There are opportunities that an individual's strength cannot seize, only to watch them slip away."
Carson Flores nodded in agreement: "True, but we are all strangers here, unaware of each other's backgrounds. How can we ensure everyone upholds the spirit of cooperation instead of resorting to internal conflict and seizing benefits?"
