Ding——

The crisp sound of the box opening came out.

The next moment, the rich magical elements and dazzling brilliance shone in the entire dark dense forest.

It is indeed very dazzling, there are magic stones of various attributes in it, neatly arranged together, and the colorful light reflects each other, which is really beautiful.

“……”

The captain of the third team, whose face was colored by the light of the Philosopher's Stone, looked at the box in his hand blankly.

"What is this?" He still couldn't react, stared at the hundred magic stones, and muttered a question.

"It's the Philosopher's Stone." The rest of the team was also stunned and subconsciously answered.

"But why the Philosopher's Stone!"

The captain of the three teams frowned, and he was even a little impatient, turning the box upside down and pouring out all the magic stones, trying to find the powerful magic items hidden underneath.

Whoa, whoa, whoa—

The Philosopher's Stone is scattered on the dead leaves, still shining beautifully.

And the box was empty, not even an apple.

“……”

That's it?

That's it.

In the dark jungle, a group of griffon knights looked at the small pile of philosopher's stones in despair, and could not speak for a long time.

……

Corners of the valley.

After watching the two teams leave one after another, Li Li still did not show up.

A breeze blows.

In the barren grass, the withered Rong Sword held the box and flew silently into Li Li's hands.

The heavy box fell into his hand, Li centrifugal head was slightly hot, and his eyes also showed the brilliance of expectation.

What's inside...... It's so heavy, it's definitely not just an apple, right?

The moment she put her hand on the box—

Countless pictures appeared in front of Li Li's eyes like a marquee.

was taken to Heavenly Sword City by the senior brother to draw candy people, and others smoked dragons and she smoked worms......

was called by Uncle Wang to gather a number of people to rub mahjong, and others fried her Tianhu again and again......

Not to mention when you ascend......

Li Li made a decision, and decisively chose to put the surprise box in the mustard seed bag, giving up the urge to open the box by himself.

She stood quietly in the treetops, looking up at the shadow of a mountain in the distance, barely visible.

Just now, Li Li quietly left a few spiritual power imprints on the elves and griffin knights of the Spring Breeze Academy.

The griffon knights couldn't sense it if they flew too far, but the elves, though they kept bending around, kept moving in that direction.

If you guessed correctly, it was the location of Spring Breeze Academy.

Li Li took out the ugly map, drew an ugly mountain peak in front of him, and then put away his things and returned with a full load.

The elves of the Spring Breeze Academy were completely unaware of the spiritual power imprint on their bodies.

They walked around very cautiously for a long time, and finally returned safely to their camp.

At this moment, the high mountain has become a solid fortress guarded by various giant trees, and countless vines protect the cedar seed in the middle in the safest central area.

Upon returning to their camp, they whispered a report on the failed battle for the box.

Mu Qian'an listened quietly, and there was no anger or rebuke on her dignified and peaceful face.

She just nodded, signaling that she understood.

Seeing that the team members seemed to be a little frustrated and lost, Mu Qian's expression softened a little.

She comforted them gently and steadily: "It's okay, even if we can't get those unknown magic items, it doesn't mean that we will fail this competition, as long as the cedar seeds are still thriving, our odds are stable." ”

With that, Mu Qian got up and walked towards the cedar wood over there.

Above the dry soil is quiet, and there are no signs of seed germination for the time being.

Mu Qian waved her wand, her expression focused, as if she was listening attentively.

This is a special ability given to Mu Qian by the Tree of Life, she is able to communicate with certain special plants with magical powers through magic.

After a while, she put away her wand and looked back at the team.

"The cedar giant seed doesn't want ordinary water, it drinks the clear mountain spring water, let's look around."

"Captain, are we going to fertilize the seeds?" A wood mage who specializes in planting asked quietly, pointing to a pile of bird waste in the distance.

Mu Qian also had a little helplessness on her face, and shook her head gently: "...... It doesn't want to. ”

……

As the sunlight faded, the white fog that had been a little lighter in the Forest of Mists became thick again.

I don't know if the night is starting to fall, and when the sun on the sunny slope dissipates, the temperature around it becomes much lower.

The city of Nanta is warm like spring all year round, and Xiren is a little uncomfortable with such low temperatures, and his body is already covered with a thin blanket.

He stood at the observation and observed the movement outside the cavern.

Yao Tan felt the temperature around him and frowned: "I'm going out to take care of the seeds." ”

Such low temperatures are not suitable for the growth of wind chime giant tree seeds.

Xiren untied the blanket and was about to say that he was going out with Yao Tan, but Ariel walked out like a ghost, pulled out two knives from behind and walked out first.

He squinted at Xiren, and it was rare that there was no mockery.

"Let's go."

Ariel escorted Yao Tan out, holding his twin knives, his dark green eyes staring coldly at the layers of fog in the darkness, and he was extremely careful to guard against the demonic beasts that might appear.

Yao Tan squatted on the ground, replenished the nutrient solution of the wind chime giant tree seeds as he had done yesterday, then added the medicine residue, and then very carefully spread a thick layer of withered grass on top of it.

In the end, he even threw a spiritual healing technique at the seed that he didn't know if it would be useful or not.

"It's so complicated to plant a seed?" Ariel raised his eyebrows slightly, a little unaware of Yao Tan's behavior.

"Seeds are like small children that need a lot of nutrients to grow quickly...... It is a blessed seed, so it is not afraid of dying without being burned and burned. Yao Tan talked to Ariel very seriously about the cultivation experience of medical cultivation: "Children may be picky eaters, and even too lazy to absorb nutrients to grow up, so they can't get used to it at this time, so stuff it with nutrients as much as possible to ensure that it thrives." ”

Yao Tan looked very professional when he talked about this.

“……”

But unfortunately, Ariel apparently couldn't understand the cultivation experience of the doctors.

At this moment, the fog at the foot of the mountain swelled.

Ariel quickly became alert, drawing his twin knives and staring dangerously at the other side.

However, Yao Tan beside him smiled, pressed his hand, and said briskly: "Don't panic, it's Li Li who is back." ”

Sure enough, Li Li's figure quickly passed through the layers of fog and returned to his teammates with light steps.

Collins and Xiren, who had observed the movement inside, also walked out quickly, and the little fat man didn't even check whether Li Li was injured, so he habitually gave Li Li a hydrotherapy first.

"This time, I figured out where the two teams were stationed, as well as the terrain to the east." Li Li took out the hand-drawn map first.

The four heads came together in unison, revealing four heavy, twisted masks of pain.

“……”

“……”

To tell the truth, they can't read this picture, they can only see all kinds of ugly lines that are twisted and disordered.

"It's a good drawing." Yao Tan gave encouragement with a clear conscience, and pointed to a depression over there with a twisted eyebrow: "This place should be a very dangerous pit, so you specially marked it, right?" ”

Li Li stared at him expressionlessly: "It is indeed a very important place, it is the residence of Chunfeng Academy." ”

Yao Tan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "I see, but I couldn't guess at all, they would choose to plant trees in the big pit, there is no sunlight in the pit......"

Li Li said quietly: "That's because you took it the other way, it's not a deep pit, it's a high mountain." ”

“……”

In the end, Li Li still sadly took back this map that only he could understand.

"Then look at this."

Li Li sighed lightly and took out his second item for the night.

"I've got my first surprise box."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the four people instantly widened.

Xiren's voice was a little excited: "We also saw that track during the day!" But you're not there, and it's too far away, so you didn't chase it. ”

"I didn't expect you to get it back!" Ariel was amazed.

Several people sat cross-legged around the box, all with burning eyes.

"How so? Who's going to open it? ”

The four of them began to look at each other passionately, very consciously ignoring Li Li.

"......" Li Li honestly clasped his hands and waited for them to finish their discussion.

Finally, Collins pulled out a statue of the god of wealth carved out of a magic stone from the spatial ring, bowed very reverently, and muttered prayers for a while.

The little fat man exhaled and rolled up his sleeves: "Okay, the god of wealth has blessed me, let me come!" ”

In order to prevent bad luck from being passed on to Corinth, Li Li consciously moved his position.
