Plains.

Dense and towering trees stretch out their branches to shade the sky.

It seems that not even a trace of sunlight can be projected through the cracks.

But in the forest, it is not as bleak as imagined.

On the contrary, the forest is full of blue and even green glow.

If a player scans the surrounding forest, they will find out.

These trees in the forest are ordinary trees.

The trunks, the branches, the treetops, are undoubtedly not made of sapphire.

It's not so much a forest as a sapphire mine.

It's just that...... The mine is not just in the form of a cave.

The two-star gem mine is no longer a mine, but a forest.

Of course, the quantity and quality of gemstones have also been raised by a big step.

But these big trees made of sapphire gemstones are just sapphire trees.

When fell, only Sapphire Gems will be dropped, but not Sapphire Essence Fruits.

Because these trees, in essence, are still just another manifestation of gemstones, dead things, not living plants.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this, even with the light emitted by the blue jade tree.

The forest was still lonely and lifeless.

"Poof!"

A teleportation light curtain with colorful colors slowly unfolded until two people were tall.

Li Xiya took the lead and walked out of the teleportation light curtain with Celia and the Skybreaker.

"Wow......"

Celia looked left and right with great interest, and was amazed when she saw the surrounding environment and the blue jade tree that emitted a ghostly light.

Women are naturally fascinated by gemstones that exude color.

Celia is no exception.

"It's so beautiful...... Is this a gem mine? ”

"But how do you look at this place, it's all a forest?"

Celia looked at Li Xiya suspiciously.

"Godfather, you said before, you came to the gem mine once."

"Godfather, is this the case with the gem mine cave you experienced?"

Li Xiya shook his head:

"Maybe it's because the gem mine I explored and adventured in before was only one star, so the terrain environment is literally a small mine."

Li Xiya looked left and right, and found that everywhere he looked, there were stout blue jade trees.

"I don't think it's going to be called a gem mine, it's more appropriate to call it a gem forest."

"Hahaha, whatever!"

Celia said excitedly:

"As long as I can explore the adventure with my godfather, there is no difference between the Gem Mine and the Gem Forest."

"Let's go, godfather, let's hurry up and explore!"

Li Xiya shook his head and said:

"Wait, I'll test my guess."

"Oh......"

Li Xiya took out the axe of regeneration and came to a blue jade tree.

"Click!"

"Click!"

I saw Li Xiya wielding the axe of regeneration, constantly cutting down the blue jade tree.

Although the level of the Blue Jade Tree is by no means comparable to ordinary trees.

But the Axe of Regrowth is not vegetarian either, with an increase in cutting efficiency.

Li Xiya easily cut down the blue jade tree in front of him.

[Successfully cut down the Blue Jade Tree to obtain Blue Jade x15]

"Huh? Blue Jade Tree? ”

Li Xiya frowned slightly when he heard the system prompt.

He was keenly aware of the difference.

Li Xiya originally thought that these blue jade trees in front of him were the same as topaz gem trees.

When felled, not only will the corresponding gem be dropped, but the Essence Fruit may also be dropped.

But it turns out that this is just Li Xiya's speculation.

The difference between the blue jade tree and the blue jade gem tree, Li Xiya is still clear in his heart.

Through cutting, he could also find that the blue jade tree in front of him was just a dead thing.

And so it goes.

This piece of blue jade tree forest is greatly reduced in Li Xiya's heart.

After all......

Although sapphire gemstone is a relatively good gemstone resource.

But compared to the gem essence fruit, one is in the sky and one is underground.

I thought about it so far.

Li Xiya put away the axe of regeneration.

For other players.

Enter the Two-Star Gem Mine biome, even if you don't encounter enemies.

Just by cutting down the blue jade tree, you can also get a lot of gem resources.

But for Li Xiya, this efficiency is still too slow.

Gem Mines are small special biomes.

Its danger is also evident from the name of the transmittal letter.

A challenge letter instead of an invitation.

So I don't have to take any risks.

Just spend some stamina and time, and you can get a lot of gem-type resources.

It is believed that not many players will refuse.

Even if it's not the most efficient.

But in the face of the safety factor, everything is negotiable.

But......

For Li Xiya, Celia, and Skybreaker, such a weird and powerful three-person team.

What they are looking for is the extreme.

Cutting down the blue jade tree?

That's a choice made by memorists.

As a man standing at the top of the regional channel, Li Xiya naturally has his choice in front of this topic.

"Celia, 9527, let's go, let's walk around!"

Li Xiya waved his hand calmly and walked towards the forest in the lead.

"Yay!"

Celia threw her fist excitedly and followed behind Li Xiya with small steps.

As for the Skybreaker, the Gargoyle is a taciturn image, just holding a bow and crossbow, walking at the end to prevent sudden danger.

The three-person team gradually moved away from the waypoint.

A quarter of an hour of exploration.

This forest, in addition to the blue jade tree, is also a blue jade tree.

The metal detector in the backpack was ringing non-stop.

However, the resources shown by the metal detector are none other than the blue jade trees that can be seen everywhere.

This proves at least one thing from the side.

In the current forest, there are no other resources except for sapphire which is a rare resource.

In contrast, metal detectors sound almost all the time.

The monster radar in the backpack did not sound an alarm during this part of the journey.

In this case, there are only two answers -

Either this sapphire forest, with no enemies, and the party is in the outer area of this gem mine.

Either in this two-star gem mine, the enemies have formed a large gathering place.

Enemies live in a fixed area.

Because of this, it is possible that there are no enemies in other areas.

Or is it a combination of both?

However, consider that this is within the Two-Star Gem Mine biome.

Li Xiya prefers that the enemies this time are of the social type.

That's why you can either not encounter it, or you will encounter a large area.

For this reason, Li Xiya also specially instructed Celia to take out the axe of regeneration, not to be careless.

The three-man team explored the forest for another quarter of an hour.

"Didi!"

"Didi!"

【Rare: Blue Jade Half-Horseman Knight, Captain】

The monster radar, which had been silent for a long time, finally sounded the alarm at this moment.

Li Xiya glanced at the real-time radar map in front of him.

A group of enemies is spotted directly in front of them, approaching the forest.

Li Xiya glanced at the radar map.

I found that there were at least twenty monster icons on the map.

"Sapphire Centaur Knight?"

Li Xiya frowned slightly, and looked at the map carefully.

It was discovered that this group of enemies was patrolling along a fixed route.

But according to the route of the actions of this sapphire centaur knight squad.

The two sides are likely to pass by and will not collide head-on.

Come to think of this.

Li Xiya turned his head:

"Celia, 9527, there are enemies, follow me, take a detour."

"No one needs to attack without my orders!"

Celia nodded heavily:

"Understood!"

[Yes, Your Excellency, Commander, I will follow your orders]

A team of three is on their way with advanced advanced mobility accessories.

Ahead of the Blue Jade Centaur Knights, they came to a small dirt slope and squatted down.

It didn't take long.

The three of them saw a team riding tall horses and inspecting their surroundings along a fixed route.

No!

You can't use the word riding.

Because the horse and the knight are actually the same person.

Perhaps that's why.

These enemies are known as the Sapphire Centaur Knights.

Because it is a humanoid enemy, every Azure Centaur Knight is stalwart.

Looking at this appearance, it has a bit of an elite taste.

This team of blue jade centaur knights is in the process of patrolling.

If you find a blue jade tree in the Blue Jade Forest that has grown to the thickness of three people, you will cut it down and harvest it, and then plant another seedling.

It seems to be one of their daily tasks.

Li Xiya looked intently.

[Third-Order Bonds: The number of Azure Centaur Knights is greater than 3, Defense +10, the number of Azure Centaur Knights is greater than 6, Mana is +60, the number of Azure Centaur Knights is greater than 12, and the Goddess of Life's Favor level is +1]

[Note: As a unique type of enemy in the Gem Mine, the Sapphire Centaur Knight is the guardian and companion of the Sapphire Forest, and as a special type of enemy, the Sapphire Centaur Knight has almost no weaknesses.]

[And the specific combination skills also make the Blue Jade Centaur Knights more powerful, they are the absolute overlords of the Blue Jade Forest, when the player is facing it, please be careful with their slashing swords]

Li Xiya finished checking the panel data of the blue jade centaur knight and bowed slightly.

How so......

It is worthy of being a two-star gem mine.

The strength of the unique rare type enemy is just not ordinary.

But that's about it.

Of the enemies of this strength, Li Xiya slaughtered not a thousand, but also eight hundred.

At this level, it can't arouse Li Xiya's jealousy at all.

The Sapphire Centaur Rider is because of the humanoid enemy.

Not only has weapon slots and armor slots.

It also has active skills, passive skills, and bonds of the corresponding level.

But what made Li Xiya curious was ......

The Sapphire Centaur Knight even has a combination of Rausch's?

It's just that this combo is a passive skill type.

That is to say......

As the progress of the survival game continues, may you encounter active type combos in the future?

Although the combo skill of Charge into Battle requires the number of Blue Jade Centaur Knights to be at least 12, below this number, the combo skill will automatically fail.

However, +15% movement speed and +10% melee attack speed are not weak.

Nearly equivalent to giving the Sapphire Centaur Knight two additional passive skills.

It's no wonder that the Sapphire Centaur Knight has become the absolute overlord of the Sapphire Forest.

The average player encounters the Blue Jade Centaur Knight, which must be quite tricky.

But Li Xiya is not among this general.

Seeing that the Blue Jade Centaur Knights team was getting closer and closer to the hillside where the three of them were.

Li Xiya took out a piece of pumpkin pie and stuffed it into his mouth to provide buff blessings, and then turned his head to signal.

Celia and the Skybreaker Gargoyle immediately understood.

"Hit!"

With Li Xiya's order, the three of them used their respective skills with all their might.

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

"Smack!"

The instantaneous burst damage of the three-person squad reached the extreme at this moment.

I saw Li Xiya with wind blades on his back.

One after another, the pale cyan wind blades rushed towards the blue jade centaur knight led by him at an extremely fast speed.

【-337】

【-337】

【-774！ 】

Because of the Ancient Cobalt armor set, the magic critical strike chance has been greatly increased.

Li Xiya's ability to use various skills to deal critical damage to enemies has been increased.

The terrifying damage took away many blue jade centaur knights in an instant.

[Successfully kill the 3rd Order, Rare, Sapphire Centaur Knight, Captain, obtain Sapphire Gem x30, Crimson Points x300]

[Successfully kill the 3rd Order, Rare, Sapphire Centaur Knight, Elite, obtain Sapphire Gem x20, Crimson Points x200]

【……】

Celia's firepower on the side was equally ferocious.

I saw that she was holding the axe of regeneration staff, and the magic navigation bomb was frantically thrown out under the blessing of the grace of the racial talent witch.

No matter what direction the magic navigation bomb is aimed at, even if it is in the opposite direction, it will accurately bombard each blue jade centaur knight with the characteristics of automatic tracking.

Compared to Li Xiya and Celia, the methods of the Sky-Breaking Gargoyle are lackluster.

But the Sky Breaking Inheritance is not covered, even if the Blue Jade Centaur Knight reacts in the later stage and uses the active skill Blue Jade Armor, it can't stop the arrows that suddenly appear close at hand.

The absolute powerhouse of the Blue Jade Forest was completely crushed by the absolute strength in front of the three-person team.

[Successfully Kill 3rd Order, Rare, Sapphire Centaur Knight, Captain, Get Gift x1, Blessing of the Goddess of Life x1, Sapphire Gem x30, Crimson Points x300]

When the last of the Azure Centaur Knights died, Li Xiya glanced at the kill prompt.

"Huh?"

"Shipped?!"
