He knew the combat effectiveness of the three well.
Even in a small team, they were formidable. Especially Gao, whose strength was much higher than the average.
Out of the three, he was the most likely to escape.
However, all three of them died at once. It's clear that their opponent was no ordinary individual; perhaps their strength even surpassed their realms!
"Unfortunately, my spirit stones and good wine and food are gone."
The supervisor murmured, without any real concern, and turned back to his gambling.
In his eyes, the value of the three was just spirit stones, good wine, and food, that's all.
Since the three were slaughtered, the previously unvisited pits started attracting people almost every day.
The next day, two people came.
They were more direct than the man in gray clothes. When they saw Su Zhan, they attacked without saying a word… only for the six black shadows to appear instantly.
On the third day, one person came, looked at Su Zhan for three seconds, and silently left.
On the fourth day, in the morning, the largest number of people came—four people!
No surprise, they cursed Su Zhan.
And as expected, the six black shadows surrounded them, and in their desperate cries, they lost their lives.
The reason the battle ended quickly was thanks to the primary spiritual dagger… Passed among the six black shadows, it instantly used the aura to harvest them all!
This time, Su Zhan learned his lesson.
He left one alive and asked for the location of the hidden spirit stones… Terrified by the sight of his companion's corpses and the black shadows, he divulged the address.
After Xiao Hei retrieved the bag with hundreds of spirit stones, Su Zhan waved his hand.
"No, no, you promised me clearly—"
Before the man finished his words, Xiao Hei broke his neck, ending his life on the spot.
"I promised not to kill you, but I didn't say Xiao Hei wouldn't. I still keep my word, right, Xiao Hei?"
Xiao Hei tilted his head, trying to understand, but with his current IQ, he clearly couldn't.
Su Zhan had no mercy for these guys.
If he didn't have these cards, they would have broken his neck by now!
"There are... 105 spirit stones!"
"Count the 220 pieces I accumulated in the past two days. The fifth stage is within reach!"
Without hesitation, Su Zhan stretched out his right hand and began absorbing the spirit stones rapidly!
50.
100.
200.
240.
As the last three gradually melted, merging into the black mark…
"Come!"
In front of Su Zhan, a black smoke emerged out of thin air, quickly forming an adult shape!
But this time, the number of black shadows was unexpected again.
"Four… Four?!"
Su Zhan's eyes were full of excitement, overflowing with joy.
The appearance of four black shadow avatars not only meant that his little black team had expanded again, their overall strength skyrocketed, and the daily mining output increased by 80 lower-grade spirit stones. More importantly… in future stages, the number of four black shadow avatars would be increased!
"The feeling of this rising number is truly beautiful."
"But the number has increased. I wonder if there are any new features?"
Compared to the number, Su Zhan looked forward to the various new features of his skills even more.
Every new feature was a qualitative leap for Su Zhan!
Immediately, Su Zhan closed his eyes, and his consciousness quickly dived.
"Change."
"The dark fog has increased to ten."
"The black cube… seems to be a bit bigger?"
He knew the combat effectiveness of the three well. Even in an average team, they were formidable. Especially Gao, whose strength was much higher than average. Of the three, he was the most likely to escape.
However, all three of them died at once. It's clear their opponent was no ordinary individual; perhaps their strength even surpassed their realms!
