The most difficult game in history has descended upon the world, and players can obtain a random talent as soon as they log in.
Jiang Hao starts with a Supreme-level talent: as long as it is ...
The group entered the gold mine and stood on the spaceship that Old Wang had prepared earlier.
Under the sea of light, Jiang Hao saw that the ship's hull, like the previous platform, was coated with a layer of black substance. He knew this was a protective measure to guard against attacks from the Gold-Eating Wandering Souls.
Several operators, arranged by Lao Wang, were already on board. After they boarded, the spaceship began to glide gently forward under the command of tens of thousands of sows.
A large number of golden-grade gold-devouring ghostly lights, like swimming fish, avoided the ship and moved rapidly in all directions.
Several stewards stood on the deck, watching this scene in astonishment. The Black Dragon Palace's gambling business had spread throughout the entire Spirit Ruins, and they had entered it several times. But they had never seen such a magnificent sight—a Sun-level mine, with the light points within the Gold-Eating Wanderer's body forming an ocean.
The spaceship platform, the size of a football field, beneath their feet was something unheard of.
The four managers stared intently at the countless points of light, large and small, that surrounded them. The sheer number of lights gave them the illusion that they could reach out and grab a gold ore the size of a duck egg simply by walking to the side of the spaceship.
However, their professional instincts told them that it was best for them to stand still at this point.
This was also the first time the city lord of Jinling had entered such a large mine, and his performance was not much better than that of the four managers. However, he was completely covered in dark gold armor, so no one could see his expression.
He was actually stunned by the points of light before him. However, he quickly came to his senses and realized that the entire mine was completely deserted except for them.
Although the entry fee for a large mine of the "Day" level is 2,000 gold coins, there are plenty of wealthy people in the Spirit Ruins. Therefore, a normal large mine, even if it is not as lively as a small mine, should not be so desolate.
The city lord of Jinling City knew without even thinking that the Black Dragon Palace must have made preparations in advance, preventing others from entering and specifically reserving it for Jiang Hao alone.
It has to be said that when it comes to earning gold coins, the Black Dragon Empire is terrifyingly powerful.
Four servants from the Black Dragon Palace had already spread out an enormous Qiankun bag on the spaceship.
Apart from Jiang Hao and the tens of thousands of sows, everyone else was both surprised and puzzled, wondering why the Black Dragon Palace was making such a big show of things.
The four stewards secretly wondered if the city lord liked to show off, and that the stewards were deliberately pandering to him in order to curry favor with him.
Yes, I've learned something. From now on, I'll follow this template when doing business in Dingbei City!
After the spaceship carved out a platform at its tail, it slowly moved downwards. Countless Gold-level Gold-Eating Wanderers swam up from all around the spaceship, forming an inverted waterfall of white light, a truly magnificent sight.
The waterfall of light illuminated the ship's hull and a small area around the deck. Using the light, Jiang Hao walked a few steps to the front of the bag, raised his staff, and swung it down at the surrounding gold-devouring wandering spirits.
In an instant, the gold ore chunks, the size of duck eggs, seemed to be overturned by the bucket of a bulldozer, crashing onto the deck of the spaceship with a thunderous roar, making people's eardrums ache.
Luckily, there were Qiankun bags laid out on the deck, otherwise they would have rolled everywhere.
A large number of the Gold-level Gold-Eating Wraiths surrounding the spaceship were instantly cleared out. Darkness descended upon the ship.
The ship trembled slightly, startling everyone. The four managers stared dumbfounded at Jiang Hao, their mouths agape as if they could fit an egg in them.
I wasn't paying attention just now, and I didn't even see how Jiang Hao made his move.
Jiang Hao flexed his wrists; through that recent test, he had gauged the strength of the spaceship.
The deck and hull are strong and sturdy enough to withstand his full force.
Jiang Hao raised his staff again and shouted to the tens of thousands of sows, "The spaceship can go faster. Try to reach the bottom in 5 minutes."
A moment later, the spaceship accelerated its descent, and the waterfall of light reappeared around its hull. Jiang Hao shouted, "Good, don't stop, keep going!"
The ship brightened up again, and after a moment it had descended to the level of the Dark Gold-level Devouring Soul. The entire spaceship was surrounded by densely packed points of light. Jiang Hao saw that it was about time and raised his staff again.
During the siege, Jiang Hao killed many monsters, causing the increase in all attributes from the Immortal Heart to rise significantly once again. At this point, his agility had reached 1 million, and his attack speed had long exceeded 2,000 attacks per second.
Now, as he swung his staff with all his might, a large patch of light nearby was instantly pulled towards him, followed by the light spots around the ship, and then those further away, and even further still.
Gold ore was poured into the spaceship's storage bag like pebbles on a conveyor belt in a modern quarry. The deafening rumble of the impact continued until the spaceship hovered near the legendary Gold-Eating Wanderer, at which point the noise abruptly ceased.
In the entire mine, where could one still see a single point of light?
All was silent.
If there were still light, you could see everyone on the deck, including the four stewards in charge of the mounts, the city lord of Jinling, tens of thousands of sows, and the four Black Dragon Palace staff who came to help. Every single one of them was completely still, as if they had stopped breathing.
After a long while, one of the servants from the Black Dragon Palace finally reacted, walked to a corner of the spaceship in the dark, and started up one of the original small platforms.
A faint light flickered on the small platform, exactly the same as the light emanating from the Gold-Eating Wanderer.
"Gentlemen, let's get to the platform and leave this place first. We can board the spaceship later."
Jiang Hao was the first to step onto the platform, and the others followed suit.
He trusted the reputation of the Black Dragon Palace.
Standing at the door of the "Sun" level room in the Black Dragon Hall, the managers in charge of the mount business finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I understand now, I understand everything!
Not only did they understand the methods of the city lord of Dingbei, but they also learned about his substantial financial strength.
If he wanted, he could enter the Black Dragon Palace at any time and spend millions of gold coins in no time!
The mount business differs somewhat from the potion and equipment businesses. In the early stages of a realm's development, there isn't much business at all. It's only in the mid-to-late stages, after the native inhabitants have increased in strength and level, that the mount business reaches its peak.
In the eyes of the four stewards, is it possible for Dingbei City, or rather the entire Hao Realm, to develop in the face of the suppression by the Jackal Empire?
There was absolutely no chance!
Therefore, the four managers deliberately kept their distance from Jiang Hao from the very beginning.
Only now did they realize how ridiculous their previous thoughts had been!
Dingbei City was upgraded from a first-level main city on the main city list to a realm-level clan city in a short time, which is enough to demonstrate Dingbei City's strength!
The four managers exchanged glances and nodded, having reached an agreement.
We must do good business with Dingbei City!
Before Old Wang could even speak, the tall, thin man leading the group bowed and said, "While the city lord is resting, let's talk about the mount business in Dingbei City, shall we?"
