Headaches, darkness, and pain......

In fact, I don't know if it's a headache or where it hurts, but it's painful.......

In a daze, he didn't know when, and he woke up in pain.

"Bang bang" a few times, the body is stinging hotly, this is another whip?

The pain in my body that I could barely endure was clear, and my mind was slightly clear. I only know that I am being whipped again, and the rest are still confused......

"Dead leftovers, Zero, Three, and Eight, you waste, you can't dig enough to kill you! Don't pretend to be dead, get out of here and get to work!"

He staggered to his feet, and understood, it was time to dig again, and the fat bear guy was very cruel......

Following a few ragged, dark, very emaciated, seemingly familiar companions, they numbly walked into the darkness of the mines, where they toiled day and night.

Fat Bear wasn't really in the dirty mine, he was still in the overseer room above ground. Just now, he just used the computer to manipulate a robot that was almost exactly like him to drive away the dozen or so miners. Moreover, to put it quite harshly, it's actually not good to really smoke to death.

Who is going to do the work? I have to go out and catch it myself. Nowadays, the wind is tighter, and it is many times more difficult to catch a mining slave secretly and hide than in the past. If you have that time, you might as well hang up and play online games and earn some pocket money by the way.

At first, the bear fat man was in charge of more than twenty mine slaves, but now there are only nine left. Now he really doesn't dare to have the same attitude as in the past, and it doesn't matter if he kills a few.

Of course, it was not to respect the human rights of the miners, he had no concept at all, he was just afraid that only these few would die too quickly, and it would be difficult for him to add them.

It's too difficult to go outside and catch it. If you don't go, you can only buy it at a high price through other overseers, and you can't afford to give up the spirit stone fragments.

Competing for this position of overseer, he spent a huge amount of money equivalent to a hundred spirit stones, a total of more than 1,600 spirit stone fragments, to bribe a mine head, and the price was terrifying. This is only the "entrance fee", and a heavy tax of no less than fifty spirit stones and eight or nine hundred spirit stone fragments must be paid every year. It's made him now, and his life is also tight, and he is worried.

It turns out that this pit can probably gather more than ten spirit stones every month, but in recent years, somehow, it has gradually decreased.

In addition to the annoyance, the fat bear became more and more perfunctory about the food supply of the miners, and the other overseers were even more unbearable. Water and food were used by the miners to sustain their lives and labor, and it was impossible to do without supply.

In order to control the miners more effectively and conveniently, these unconscionable black spirit stone mines have already studied the standard miner diet; the miners can only barely maintain their lives and a little physical strength, and their minds are in a state of comatose for a long time; over time, they will definitely not know how to resist, and they will completely become walking corpses who only know how to dig pits.

How nice would it be if they were all like Zero? Fat Bear was a pity that the other miners couldn't help but toss, and with a few whips, he might fall to the ground, so that he didn't dare to exert himself at all now. He knew very well that the rest of them should be so weak.

Just now, he just dared to "lightly" draw a few whips from Zero, in comparison, Zero is really good, and it has "stood the test" for so long.

I remember that I have been here for more than 30 years, and this batch of mine slaves is already the tenth batch, and Zero is the second batch to come in, and it has always been the weakest one, but it has always persevered inexplicably, and "Zero" has been his exclusive possession.

Originally, wherever it was, Zero should have been the first to "go down".

"Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?"

Zero slowly and mechanically waved his pickaxe for a moment, but suddenly slowed down, and three questions suddenly popped up in his mind.

He stopped extremely sluggishly, and had to wonder, what is going on?

Who am I? What am I and who am I? I don't understand.

Where? Hey, I think I know, isn't this in a mine? It seems like it's always been here, why doesn't it seem right?

The pain of the tide suddenly came up, and it was about to engulf Zero.

Much later, he found that the situation seemed familiar. Oh, it seems to have been experienced countless times, many times alive and painful.

Well, this time it's a little different. It's not dead, and it seems to understand a little more.

Oh, think of me. Who is it?

It seems that it is not so clear whether the person who died in the catastrophe or not.

It seems to be called Li Jun, isn't it?

Now it's Zero, I see, I'm a mining slave, digging spirit stones.

"Drop, host information detected, is it bound to the system?" a mechanical, dull voice sounded in his head.

Well, what?

Zero doesn't understand again, what do you say?

"Repeat, host information detected, is the system bound?"

Zero still doesn't understand, what does it mean? What is the system? Can you eat it?

After a few seconds, "there is not enough information to judge, no reply." ”

Zero is confused, what are you doing, what are you messing up?

There was no response this time. After a minute, Zero was thinking about his mind again, but he was still confused, no different from being in a daze.

The miners often do this, but they are not consciously lazy, and when their physical strength is exhausted, they will inevitably stagnate and enter a state of stupidity. Most of the time, they don't know if they dig or can't dig spirit stones, and they are automatically identified by the electronic system connected to the pickaxe.

When you dig up the spirit stone fragments, the baggage that you will always carry with you will be automatically opened, and the miner can pick it up and include it. It's like a robot, but it's too expensive for the fat bear to manipulate the robot, which consumes at least one spirit stone every year!

Most of the time, the harvest is only fragments of spirit stones, and the probability of digging up complete spirit stones is extremely low. All the spirit stone fragments were collected by Xiong Fatzi, and they were all handed over with about 100 to 150 spirit stone fragments to a spirit stone.

The Black Spirit Stone Mine is like this, the big head is the income of the upper class, and the bear fat man is the lowest level of the management, and he can only dip some soup; now that the market is getting worse, he will be very satisfied if he can have ten spirit stone hair income every year. The net income is even more meager, about the appearance of one or two spirit stones.

In the past, Zero was very gratifying to him, but now he intends to transfer "this pit" to find another way out, and Zero has become his trouble. Should we withdraw or not?

It makes sense to withdraw from this pit, and the transfer fee can also "sell" one hundred and eighty spirit stones, and if you make up some more, you should be able to find a new pit that you can get by; It doesn't make sense not to withdraw, just for Zero, and I'm afraid that this pit will sink deeper and deeper......

Spirit stones are hard currency in the Upper Realm (also known as the Cultivation God Realm), and it is rare to find them at level zero, and even spirit stone fragments are already high-level currency in the Zero Realm.

The miners carried this device with them, which was many times cheaper, and they could use batteries.

This kind of spirit stone black mine is actually illegal, and the cultivation realm has always banned it, but it has been banned repeatedly, just like a human trafficker in a certain interface. Wouldn't it be effective to catch any typical crime and kill all of them openly? Hehe, it's certainly not that simple.

"The system upgrade resource has been detected, may I ask the host, is it upgraded?"

As Zero fell asleep, he heard the question again.

Huh? Upgrade, what is upgrade?

"System upgrade resource detected, do you want to upgrade it?"

Well, upgrade resources, so what?

"There is not enough information to answer. Do you want to upgrade?"

Zero is a little angry, who are you? I don't know what to ask, or is it just so annoying?

"Who am I?" the dull voice asked itself, and then said hesitantly, "I should be the system, right?"

Zero is even more angry, are you the system, who are you asking?

"There is not enough information. You tell me who you are first, maybe I will know if I am a system. ”

Zero thought to himself, it seemed to make sense. I told him that I was Zero. No, isn't he only a system, can't I be a system?

Zero's breath is happy, aren't you a little stupid with this system? Don't you even know if you're a system?

The system is sluggish for a few seconds, and it's the same old thing, "There is not enough information." Request an upgrade. ”

Zero was a little sympathetic to the silly system, and felt that it was no different from his fellow miners. I thought to myself, if you want to level up, you can level up, don't ask me endlessly. Will it be that after upgrading, it will be less stupid?

"Thank you, host," the system seemed to be a little pleased.

Zero doesn't understand again, thank me for what?

This time, the system fell silent. Zero continued to be in a daze, and after a long time, he heard the voice again after a long time.

"The system has been successfully upgraded, and now it is a first-level system, with open permissions and some new information. This upgrade of the system consumes a little bit of resources. ”

Zero found that the system's voice seemed to sound a little better than just now.

I thought funny, no wonder I was so stupid just now, it turned out that it was level zero before. Consume a little bit of resources and go up to the next level, well, maybe get a little more refined?

Eh, wait, what resources, whose ones are they? Could it be mine?

"Yes, of course, it's the host's resource. I have to agree with the host before I can consume resources to upgrade. You must upgrade and get new information before you can continue to answer the host's questions. Emphasize that just now it was not stupid, but because of insufficient information. ”

Well, I won't say you're stupid anymore, I was wrong. Zero was a little sorry, thinking that it shouldn't be right to just say that others are stupid.

Uh, that, are you called the system? Who gave you the name, why is it so weird? Why don't you come out and talk to me?

"I'm just calling it the system, it's numbered, it's long, I don't tell you. What about you, host, is it called Zero, or is it Li Jun?" the system asked narrowly.

I, is it called Zero, or is it Li Jun? Zero was stunned by the question. My mind was confused, and I couldn't figure it out for a while.

After being in a daze for a long time, I understood a little. I should be zero now, and it is possible that I used to be Li Jun in the past, and it feels very vague.

"Hee-hee, I was like that just now, and you still laugh at me for being stupid. The system retorted.
