Surviving people

In the Kaiyue Great Minefield, the sound of picks striking ores filled the air, mixed with angry curses. At this moment, ten people wearing black active armor gathered together, discussing something.

The leader was a middle-aged man who was two meters tall and full of muscles. The man opened his mouth and said:

"Wu Lüren, have you found the body of that slave who fell into the abyss some time ago?"

"Captain, n-no, we haven't found it yet."

"We sent a detector down that day to search for it, but it lost its signal before reaching the bottom. When we pulled it up, we found that it had been eroded by the energy of the abyss."

Presumably, that slave had been completely eroded by the abyss before reaching the bottom. The one speaking was Wu Lüren, the very person who framed Wang Zhi.

"Hmm."

Forget it, it's not a big deal. The minerals in his square stones are not very valuable either. But Wu Lüren, it'd better not happen again. There won't be a next time. Captain Palos stared at Wu Lüren and said coldly.

Wu Lüren seemed to have been seen through, and cold sweat streamed down his face.

"Y-Yes, I understand, Captain."

"That's all. Disperse."

"Yes!"

After everyone dispersed, Palos murmured: These bastards have done a lot of such things as embezzling privately. It's just right to use this incident of Wu Lüren to warn them to be more restrained. After all, it's not easy to explain to those big shots above.

The Black Abyss East Grand Rift Valley

A hand grabbed up from the dark crack. A person had a lower body covered in silver fur, and his strong upper body was bare, with various wounds. Among them, the three claw marks on his chest were particularly terrifying.

After staying in the abyss for more than two months, Wang Zhi had changed a great deal. Originally, Wang Zhi didn't look skinny, but he did seem malnourished.

The first thing he did after returning to the ground was to detect the number of people in the minefield, the number of shift rotations, and which areas were blind spots. Obviously, it was impossible to kill all these supervisors at once.

So Wang Zhi lay low for two days and finally figured out their patrol patterns and where it was not easy to be discovered when taking action.

It wasn't yet night. Just wait a little longer. The minefield also had two shifts. After those supervisors changed shifts, they generally slacked off. That would be Wang Zhi's chance, and he could make a big splash at one go.

While waiting, Wang Zhi checked the self-appraisal crystal, which was something that could clearly record Wang Zhi's attributes. He found it in the lair of a bird named the Inferno Bird after killing it. The lair of this bird was near the lava eruption vent, and the bird also had a hobby of collecting crystals.

Open the attributes

Originator: Wang Zhi

Rank: Early Second Rank

Talent:??? Blood Overlord

Techniques: Overlord Devouring (derived), Scarlet Bow (derived), Blood-Blight Spear (derived), Swift Overlord's Demeanor (derived)

The "???" should be the black flame that Wang Zhi merged with, which couldn't be identified, which surprised Wang Zhi a bit. As for the "Blood Overlord" talent, it was taught by Old Hei. These derived skills like the techniques were all developed by Wang Zhi based on the "Blood Overlord" talent. The Swift talent was obtained by Wang Zhi using the "Overlord Devouring" on that strange demon wolf.

It has to be said that the "Blood Overlord" passed down by Old Hei is really powerful. It's also a growth talent with infinite development potential. As long as Wang Zhi's rank becomes higher, the more power of the world he can absorb, and the stronger his physical attributes will be.

The "Blood Overlord" can keep growing. Although Old Hei always said that he created it and refused to admit where he got it. Whenever Wang Zhi asked Old Hei if there were any better ways to control and train it, Old Hei would always say that if you're not good at it, practice more, absorb more of the blood qi of the powerful, and understand more. Don't try to take shortcuts when you encounter a bottleneck. The powerful are all self-reliant.

Although what Old Hei said was right, Wang Zhi felt that something was wrong, so he let it go.

......

In the evening, as the sky darkened, the lights in the minefield were turned on one after another. There was a small path on the right side of the mine. If you keep walking along the path, you will come to a lake called the Broken Mirror Lake.

This name comes from the fact that when the moon and the lake surface reach a coincident point, the moon always tilts. It's very strange that all other reflections can be perfectly coincident, except for the bright moon.

At the moment, a supervisor came to the lakeside, took off her face armor, revealing a head of silver-white long hair. She was a very beautiful woman. She sat beside a tree with her long legs casually placed and dialed her communicator.

"Hello, recently the higher-ups have been strict in management, and I can't get that much quantity."

A steady voice came from the other end of the phone: How much less?

"It's not a matter of how much less. The captain has already given a warning. Please be more lenient. The people above have been putting pressure on us during this period."

"If you can't get it, your sister's illness will just wait for death. Without the 'Phantom Tea', how long do you think she can hold on?"

The "Phantom Tea" is a kind of drug that can affect the mind. Once you take it, you can't stop.

Hearing this sentence, the woman put down the communicator feebly. Beep, beep, beep~ The phone call ended. The woman didn't move and just stared straight at the lake surface.

A scream broke the peaceful lake surface. Several water birds were scared and flew away from the vine trees rooted in the water.

Damn it, damn it, damn it. These slaves are worse than dogs, these lowly things. They only dig so little every day. They dig so slowly. Why don't they just die earlier?

The woman with silver-white long hair kicked the tree and cursed.

Suddenly, a sharp sound of breaking the air sounded. A red arrow hit the woman's abdomen. The woman was a bit at a loss due to this sudden sneak attack.

With a cry of pain, the silver-haired woman covered her stomach and hid behind the big tree. Fortunately, the armor protected her and she wasn't seriously injured, but the huge impact made her internal organs feel uncomfortable.

From the direction where this arrow hit, she could roughly guess that the person who attacked her was in the mountain behind her on the right.

Looking at the communicator not far from her, she wanted to rush out and pick it up. Just as she was about to move, bang! A sound came from behind the tree, followed by a series of explosions until the whole tree fell down.

Seeing this situation, the woman was filled with horror. She knew that the other party didn't want to kill her directly, so she raised her hands above her head and walked out tremblingly.

"Which big brother can come out and meet me? You not killing me means that I'm still useful to you."

Now every second of waiting was like a year for her. Fortunately, she didn't have to wait long. She saw a man standing on the mountain. His pair of blood-colored pupils were extremely obvious in the night.

Under the dim moon, the killer made a jump and landed steadily, coming in front of the woman. She looked at the person in front of her and felt a bit familiar but couldn't remember. She said in horror:

"Big brother, as long as you don't kill me, you can do whatever you want." After saying that, her cheeks turned a little red, and she blinked and secretly glanced at Wang Zhi.

"What's your name?"

"Big brother, I, my name is Liya."

"How many of you are there in this minefield?"

"Counting me, there are twenty-five."

"What about their ranks? I'm not very clear about the others, but they are not higher than the Second Rank. Captain Palos is in the middle of the Second Rank, and Vice-Captain Kain is in the early stage of the Second Rank."

Wang Zhi asked a few more questions, and Liya answered them one by one. After understanding the situation, Wang Zhi asked her to pick up the communicator and told her to trick her accomplices to come to the Broken Mirror Lake.

Liya came to the broken big tree and picked up the communicator. She was just about to press the secret code for help.

Puff!

Her head and body were nailed to the broken tree. Wang Zhi had no intention of letting her go from the beginning. The supervisors here didn't know how many lives they had on their hands.

Wang Zhi wasn't some kind-hearted person, and he didn't expect her to be obedient.

After looting the useful things on her and cleaning up the traces, he left the place. The hunt had just begun.
