The sun rises and the moon sets.

When the sun sets completely between the mountains.

A blood moon begins to hang high in the sky.

The blood-colored light shone across the land.

The blue jade forest, which exudes a blue glow, reflects a different style.

After destroying a gathering place of the Sapphire Centaur Knights.

A team of three over the course of a multi-hour exploration adventure.

A number of sapphire centaur knight squads and gathering places were also discovered.

According to Li Xiya's habits, there is naturally no reason not to eat this kind of fat meat sent to the door.

It is also in this process.

Li Xiya harvested a large number of sapphire gems and corresponding enemy skill books.

The time spent exploring the adventure in the Gem Mine biome continues to increase as a team of three.

Until now.

Twelve hours have passed.

Halfway through the time limit of the challenge letter.

But......

No enemies other than the Sapphire Centaur Knight have been found.

There are discoveries of jadeite resources.

There are just a few scattered emerald trees, and there is no large emerald forest at all.

But the question is......

This time, Li Xiya took Celia and the Skybreaker Gargoyle to the two-star gem mine to explore the adventure.

For the jadeite gemstone.

The resources needed today are long gone.

Li Xiya was also a little anxious in his heart.

Now.

Inside the forest.

Li Xiya rode the slime mount, aimlessly sorting out the harvest.

I saw him take out the skill book from the ivy backpack while he was thinking about it.

[Skill Name: Sapphire Armor]

[Skill Attribute: Active and Permanent Mastery]

[Rank: 1st Order]

[Mana Cost: 20 points]

[Cooldown: 3 minutes]

[Effect: After the player uses this skill, the body will be covered with a layer of external armor composed of sapphire elements, which can automatically block 100 points of base damage, and during the duration of the armor, the user's temporary defense +5]

[Learning Needs: General E, Melee E, Mage D]

[Note: As a two-star gem biome-specific type enemy, the Sapphire Centaur Knight's auto-block type defense skill has a stronger buff effect than the general auto-block type skill]

[Sapphire armor not only has a tighter automatic defense system, but also comes with an additional defense bonus, which is a rare high-quality automatic block type active skill]

During this time, the three-person team killed no less than five hundred blue jade centaur knights, but the skill books they gained were nothing more than two types-

Sapphire Armor and Sapphire Splitting Strike!

Both of these skill books are active skills.

As for the passive skills, it's also weird.

In addition to the blessing of the goddess of life that I was lucky enough to get before.

Along the way, I really haven't gotten a second book.

But it's normal.

Resources such as skill books are not fixed to be dropped by killing enemies.

And to be honest, on the current trading platform, the expensive ones are active skills.

After all, a high-quality active skill can significantly increase the player's combat burst power.

This is incomparable to passive type skills, and it is an innate disadvantage.

In addition, the Sapphire Armor is an active type skill that can only be obtained by killing the unique enemy Sapphire Centaur Knight in a small special biome gem mine.

Not only does it have regular auto-block damage, but it also has an additional defense bonus.

The Sapphire Armor is much better than the usual blocking skills on the market.

This kind of skill book is definitely the type that is not to be sold.

If Li Xiya is willing, he will pay a high price and sell it slowly.

You can definitely make a small profit at a selling price 50% higher than the market price.

It's just that this method is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

My own shelter has so many specialties for sale, but I won't be entangled in these two jujubes.

As for the Blue Jade Armor itself, it's a bit of a no-brainer.

But the key is that Li Xiya is only in the second order at present.

Even after the end of the Triumph Week, go to the Crimson or the Corruption and kill the boss to get a badge upgrade.

That's also opening up the third passive skill slot first.

As for the third active skill slot, it's still very early.

At least not now.

In the future, Li Xiya will also go to the Crimson and the Corruption to explore the adventure.

These two biomes, as large special biomes.

Abilities dropped by enemies are definitely better skills even if they are of the same type.

Therefore, even the Sapphire Armor is much better than the regular auto-blocking skills on the market.

Li Xiya still didn't care much.

The three-person team has been in the Gem Mine biome for half a day to explore the adventure.

But there are not many novel resources.

Sapphire armor is already one of the good resources.

The rest of the scattered potions drink the ingredients, and there is not much to say.

As for the more than a dozen gifts obtained by killing enemies during this time.

Li Xiya and Celia's luck seemed to be out of order.

Only some miscellaneous items and ingredients were opened.

Not a single accessory was obtained, and there was nothing particularly impressive.

Not to mention the quality of the accessories.

In the process of traveling and exploring.

Celia was still energetic and brandished her wings and soared through the sky, observing the situation around her.

Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case.

In order to prevent enemies from sneaking up on Celia.

The Skybreaker Gargoyle also wielded its massive stone wings, following left and right.

After walking along the road ahead for about half an hour.

"Godfather!"

Celia retracted her wings, landed beside Li Xiya, and said excitedly:

"Jade, it's the Emerald Tree!"

"Huh? Where? ”

Li Xiya came back to his senses and asked.

"Climb over this hillside, and there's a huge emerald forest next to the lake at the end of the horizon!"

Celia gave a detailed report on the information she had seen in the air.

"Hmm...... Good! ”

The corners of Li Xiya's mouth curled a touch:

"Let's go, let's see."

A quarter of an hour later.

The three-man team came to the lake.

Observe closely, so the surrounding landforms are observed more carefully.

It's not so much the Emerald Forest that grows next to the lake.

Rather, it is better to say that this emerald forest and the sapphire forest are divided by this lake.

Because......

To the left of the lake is an emerald forest that stretches as far as the blue jade forest.

In the meantime, of course.

Li Xiya has not only been staring at the map of the monster radar.

Skybreakers are also sent to explore the interior of the Emerald Forest.

However, the three-person team never found any new enemies.

Li Xiya didn't want to wait stupidly.

Even cutting down the Emerald Tree to obtain Emerald Gems is less efficient.

But it's always the same way.

It's better than no road at all, right?

Besides.

For the remaining twelve hours, the three-person team went all out to cut down, and the efficiency was no matter how low it was.

It should be no problem to meet the needs of the Shelter upgrade, the Slime Staff upgrade, and the Scarlet Mage Tower upgrade.

Before the other options come out, the only option at the moment -

A vast emerald forest!

The ultimate goal of the trip can be achieved perfectly.

"Let's go!"

Li Xiya commanded:

"Celia, you and 9527 start cutting along the perimeter of the lake, don't get too far away from each other, to avoid a sneak attack by enemies."

"Am I with the little stones? Okay! Celia nodded obediently and then asked:

"What about you, godfather? Aren't you with us? ”

Li Xiya explains:

"After so long of adventuring and exploring in the Gem Mine, my [Civilization Angler] title has been fully charged."

"There's a lake here, so I'll spend a quarter of an hour fishing for a treasure crate."

"You get busy first, and I'll come later."

"yes, okay."

After hearing the explanation, Celia immediately walked aside with the Skybreaker Gargoyle and began to cut down the emerald tree.

Li Xiya neatly found an excellent fishing position by the lake and sat down peacefully.

He pulled out his fiberglass fishing rod and hung the last discreet enchanted Nightcrawler bait.

Immediately, Li Xiya summoned the accessory slot and loaded the fisherman's earrings into the accessory slot.

Then from the ivy backpack, he took out a bottle of fishing potion and drank it all.

And so it goes.

Li Xiya used the title of [Civilized Angler] this time.

Experience progress bar to maximize the benefit.

What is the quality of this treasure box fishing, Li Xiya actually doesn't care too much, what he cares more about is what the quality promotion reward is.

Everything is ready to go.

"Whew!"

Li Xiya waved the fiberglass fishing rod and threw the buoy into the middle of the lake steadily.

"Use the Civilized Angler!"

Five minutes later.

The buoy floating on the lake began to float and heavily, and Li Xiya pulled the buoy violently.

[Congratulations to the player, you have obtained——]

【Golden Crate x1】

Bad luck is not bad, and the golden crate is okay.

Li Xiya did not rush to open the treasure box immediately, but chose to summon the title panel.

[Title: Civilized Angler (0%)]

[Quality: Excellent (35%)]

【Quality Promotion Reward: (To be claimed)】

With the multiple blessings of enchanted Nightkin bait, angler earrings, and fishing potions.

Li Xiya used [Civilized Angler] this time to gain a full 60% experience progress bar increase.

The title of "Civilized Angler" has also been successfully promoted from excellent to excellent.

"Yes, you have reached 35% of the progress directly, and if you use [Civilized Angler] twice......"

"Maybe I can get another quality promotion reward before the end of Triumph Week."

Come to think of this.

Li Xiya couldn't wait to click on the title page.

[Receive the quality promotion reward and obtain——]

【High Quality Fishing Linex1】

Hearing the system prompt, Li Xiya was pleasantly surprised: "Accessories? ”

Could it be ......

Is a good fishing line an accessory that, like the Angler Earrings, can increase the fishing power?

Li Xiya couldn't wait to pick up the white fishing line and look at it intently.

【Name:Mystery・High Quality Fishing Line】

[Type: Accessories/Crafting Materials]

[Modifier Mystery: Max Mana increased by 20]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Effect 1: After the player equips this accessory, the fishing line will never break when fishing]

[Effect 2: The player loads the high-quality fishing line into the accessory slot, which can increase the player's fishing power by 10% when fishing]

[Specialization Requirements: General E]

[Note: The high-quality fishing line is one of the three-piece fishing sets, and is an unconventional formula series creation unique to the island biome.]

[Every adult sailor must need a fishing three-piece suit, which will bless you with a safe and abundant return from the sea]

A good fishing line is just as much a fishing trio as the Angler Earrings.

It's just that a high-quality fishing line is not only of higher quality, but even the accessory effect is one more.

"When fishing, the line never breaks?"

Li Xiya's brows furrowed slightly.

This effect is better than nothing.

Anyway, what Li Xiya values most is the 10% fishing power bonus added to the high-quality fishing line.

And so it goes.

In the future, use the title of [Civilized Angler] to fish for treasure crates.

The efficiency of the experience progress bar can be greatly improved.

That's the case.

After that, the speed of crate fishing and obtaining quality promotion rewards will also be much faster.

"Three-piece ......"

Li Xiya was silent.

The fishing trio is currently only one piece away, and it will be ready.

Angler earrings and high-quality fishing line also have crafting material entries.

Maybe these three basic accessories are synthetics for advanced accessories.

Thinking of this, Li Xiya was full of energy.

He stores his high-quality fishing line in an ivy backpack.

[Open the Golden Crate and obtain——]

【Weak Healing Potion x10】

【Magic Potion x5】

【Iron Flaskx2】

【Fins x1】

Four light clusters of different colors floated in mid-air, and Li Xiya's familiar probe pierced all the light clusters in turn.

This time, the golden crate was full of various potions, but it was a pity for Li Xiya, who had the Scarlet Luna Well.

These elixirs are not a precious resource.

Li Xiya stored all the potions in the Ivy backpack, and then picked up the only new resource this time, the flippers.

[Name:Hard Fins]

[Type: Accessories/Crafting Materials]

[Modifier Hard: Defense +1]

【Quality: Excellent】

[Effect: Gives the player the ability to swim]

[Specialization Requirements: General F]

[Note: Landlubbers?] Can't swim? It doesn't matter, as long as the player loads the fins in the accessory slot, they can get the swimming ability of the swimmer, and the white stripe in the waves is not a dream! 】

The basic type of flippers, although the effect is relatively simple, can only give the player the ability to swim.

But the effect is very useful.

At least that's the case for Li Xiya.

After all, in his previous life, as a landlubber in the inland area, he hadn't even been to the swimming pool a few times, and he didn't have any water at all.

At present, Li Xiya has an invitation letter for the island biome in his hand, and he knows what the geomorphological environment is when he hears the name.

Being able to gain the ability to swim before deciding to explore the island biome was a solution to your immediate needs.

In general.

This time, the Golden Crate is still rewarding.

Li Xiya put his flippers into his ivy backpack and got up to look around.

Found during this time.

Celia and Skybreaker did not cut down the Emerald Tree by the lake.

Instead, it went in one direction and went deep into the Emerald Forest to cut down.

Li Xiya took a look at the stump left behind after the felling, and took a step, ready to join Celia and the Skybreaker Gargoyle.

Since straight so far.

There is still no new way to obtain jadeite gemstones.

Li Xiya didn't think much about these things.

The key is to collect enough jadeite resources first to meet future needs.

Otherwise, he would be blind to the two-star gem mine challenge letter he bought with high points.

Who knows, only a few steps have been walked.

The monster radar has been ticking.

[Third Order, Rare, Jade Young Dragon, Pseudo-Boss]
