The three-person team was originally conducting repairs at the cols of two small mountains.
This place is on the edge of the poisonous miasma.
It is a key pass crossing the high points of the Divide Mountains, and the surrounding terrain is flat and fairly open.
But it can't stand the underground jungle biome. The sky above is not the blue sky but the rock wall of the cave.
Even though the terrain is flat, the cave wall above your head is only ten meters away from the mountain col.
Magic plants or glowing moss in the surrounding hills.
Because the Spiked Jungle Slime was previously entrenched in it.
It has been chewed up long ago.
The lighting problem of the three-person team can only be solved by relying on armed spiked slimes holding torches.
Perhaps it was because of the appearance of the torch light source that the surrounding enemies began to gather.
But unfortunately, these three-meter-long giant wasps fly silently.
Even the radar map of the monster radar did not detect any information about this group of wasps.
It wasn't until the wasp enemy launched its attack that the big guys realized it.
If it weren't for Li Xiya's inner perception, he could keenly sense that something was wrong.
Perhaps when all the subsequent wasp enemies attack together, the three-man team will be severely disabled even if they are not dead.
This is no joke!
The wasp flying in the air arched its tail and sprayed out stingers half a meter long and as thick as a finger.
The sting shot in the air, making a burst of sound.
"call out!"
"call out!"
"call out!"
Fortunately, the three-person team has completely entered combat mode at this time.
Li Xiya used the horseshoe balloon bundle and lightning boots to dodge.
Celia had already quickly avoided Li Xiya's prompt, and took out the Scarlet Fireball Magic Wand to fight back.
The Skybreaker Gargoyle relies on its abundant energy reserves and the passive skill Gargoyle's tenacity to be resurrected indefinitely.
It simply used its body to block the wasp enemy's attack and gave Celia and Li Xiya a chance to counterattack.
After dodging a series of sting attacks, Li Xiya finally stood firm.
He looked up.
[Name: Great Stinging Wasp·Captain]
[Level: Level 3]
[HP: 344+150]
[Magic value: 150]
[Attack: 150]
[Defense: 28+30]
[Immunity: poisoning, confusion]
[Active skill: Instant Sting Projectile (consumes 10 magic points to launch a stinging projectile, which will cause 250% of the basic attack damage after hitting the enemy)]
[Active skill: Wing Blade (consumes 20 magic points, spreads its wings to launch two wing blade attacks, causing 200% of the basic attack damage after hitting the enemy) Cooling time: 1 minute]
[Passive skill: Jungle Camouflage (shields the perception of reconnaissance accessories and will not make any noise when flying)]
[Passive skill: Poison (all attacks are fixed with poison debuff: causing 9 points of damage per second, duration 10 seconds)]
[Passive skill: Honey Source (fixed recovery of 2+1 health points per second)]
[Third level bond: The number of wasps is greater than 3, defense +30, the number of wasps is greater than 6, health +150, the number of wasps is greater than 9, honey source level +1]
[Note: As one of the three bad guys in the underground jungle, the Wasp family is as large as the Slime family. As the top of the food chain in the underground jungle biome, they often appear in groups and kill any living thing in front of them]
Stinging Wasps are more aggressive than Spiking Jungle Slimes.
Not only are the two active skills both offensive skills.
In addition to the ability to fly, it also has the ability to shield perception.
Finally, he has a honey source skill that has been strengthened by the third-level bond.
Fixed recovery of 3 health points per second.
Let the stinging wasps ensure powerful attack power.
It also has the ability to continue combat.
When Li Xiya saw this, he soared into the sky with white wings of wind blades spread out from his back.
The magic rune array recharges rapidly.
"call out!"
"call out!"
"call out!"
One after another, light cyan wind blades wrapped in wind elements launched a counterattack towards the Stinging Wasp.
Wind Blades fly faster than a Sting Wasp's stinger projectiles.
The stinging hornet team was quite dense and there was no time to disperse and dodge.
【-291】
【-291】
【-291】
[Successfully killed the third-level stinger wasp captain and obtained stinger x1, bezoar x1, and scarlet point x180]
[Successfully killed Level 3 Sting Wasp Elite, obtained Sting x1, Scarlet Point x120]
【……】
After being attacked by the wind blade, the stinging wasp enemy group dispersed in the air to avoid the attack of the wind blade, even if a few of them were killed or injured.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiya took out the sand gun with his backhand, and the dense sand bombs formed a line of fire in the air, covering the swarm of stinging hornets in all directions.
The dominance of the battlefield returned to the hands of the three-person team.
Seeing this, Celia and the Sky-Breaking Gargoyles also sniped from the side.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"call out!"
Celia's scarlet fireball magic wand, paired with passive skill debuff curse.
Not only does it subject enemies to splash damage, but it also subjects Stinging Wasps to various debuffs.
Under the influence of dark, slow, weak and other debuff effects, part of the combat effectiveness is lost.
Li Xiya also understood and gave priority to killing these stinging wasp monsters that were affected by the debuff.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
【-286】
【-286】
【-286】
Even though the stinging wasp has the passive skill Honey Source, Li Xiya adheres to the principle that it is better to cut off one of its fingers than to hurt ten of its fingers.
He almost aimed at a stinging wasp and fired at it until the enemy was dead.
In the face of absolute damage, the stinging hornet enemies fell to the ground one after another.
[Successfully killed the third-level stinger hornet captain and obtained stinger x1, ancient cobalt helmet x1, and scarlet points x180]
[Successfully killed the third-level Stinger Wasp and Elite, and obtained Stinger x1, Poison Potion x1, and Scarlet Points x120]
【……】
This wave of more than thirty stinging wasps in total was successfully wiped out with the close cooperation of the three-person team.
The sounds of fighting and killing disappeared, and the quiet jungle biome entered a state of darkness again.
"puff!"
Li Xiya summoned an armed spiked slime warrior captain and asked him to hold a torch to provide lighting.
The flat mountain cols are littered with stinging wasp stumps and broken arms.
The blood flowed along the lower potholes and gathered into small puddles filled with bright red blood.
Li Xiya frowned slightly, although this time the three-man team annihilated this group of invading enemies with absolute combat effectiveness.
However, the monster's radar frequently failed, which also made him quite angry.
Li Xiya simply replaced it with a metal detector.
For the rest of the journey, it would be better to rely on your own vigilance.
【Jungle Roe Deer】
Um?
Li Xiya just loaded the metal detector into the accessories column.
But unexpectedly found that the metal detector had started working!
Jungle spores?
Li Xiya remembered it clearly.
Jungle spores are the synthetic materials required for the three advanced magic weapons: Regeneration Ax, Thorn Whip, and Grass Sword.
Now for the three synthetic materials, poisonous stingers and jungle spores have been found, leaving only vines.
Thinking of this, Li Xiya waved his hand:
"Come with me!"
Celia and the Sky-Breaking Gargoyle immediately followed Li Xiya's footsteps and left the col.
Get closer to the mountains in the distance.
five minutes later.
Follow the metal detector's instructions.
Li Xiya came to an old tree.
Follow metal detector guidelines.
There is a jungle spore buried in the ground next to the old tree, ten meters deep.
Li Xiya took out the bone pickaxe from the Ivy backpack and handed it to the Gargoyle.
"9527, dig according to the area I marked until ten meters deep!"
The sky-breaking gargoyle took the bone pickaxe and nodded immediately.
[Yes, Your Excellency, Commander]
While the Skybreaker Gargoyle is digging for materials.
Li Xiya and Celia were sitting next to a nearby big tree, trimming it.
Li Xiya handed Celia an ice cream.
"Come on, Celia, have some snacks and stay busy for a while. We'll have dinner later."
"Well, it doesn't matter, Celia isn't hungry either."
"If you're not hungry, you're not hungry. You still have to eat."
Li Xiya looked at Celia licking the ice cream with relish and asked:
"Celia, was this exploration adventure fun?"
"Uh-huh!"
Celia nodded excitedly:
"It's fun, much more fun than being in the shelter!"
Li Xiya explained:
"It's fun, but we'll probably be busy for a long time. We won't be able to rest, and we'll have to stay up late to explore."
"If you feel like sleeping, you can take a short rest now. When 9527 digs out the jungle spores, I will start making dinner. Will I wake you up then?"
Celia thought for a moment, nodded obediently, then leaned back, leaned against the big tree, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Li Xiya began to sort out the harvest this time.
He took out a green irregular ellipsoid from his ivy backpack.
[Name: Hard Bezoar]
[Type: Accessories·Materials]
[Modifier·Hard: Defense +1]
【Excellent quality】
[Effect: Players equipped with this accessory will be immune to poisoning debuffs]
[Specialization requirements: General D, Medical D]
[Note: What the hell is a bezoar dropped by a bee? Does it also have some bull demon blood? What? Immune poisoning? It fell well! 】
Li Xiya raised his eyebrows slightly.
He never expected that the Stinging Wasp, which was not even a rare enemy, could drop accessories of excellent quality.
This is the first time Li Xiya has received an accessory of excellent quality.
Although it is a bit strange to kill a stinging wasp to drop a bezoar.
But what the heck!
Just use it!
Although the effect of bezoar is simple, it has the effect of immunity to poisoning debuffs.
This effect fundamentally prevents players from being harmed by poisoning debuffs.
It can be said to be very powerful.
The most important thing is that Bezoar still has entries for making materials.
This also means that it can be upgraded into more powerful accessories.
Maybe this type of accessory that is immune to debuff effects can become immune to all common debuffs after continuous advancement!
Celia has the passive skills Wild Bite and the debuff curse enhanced by scarlet assimilation.
How strong is it?
How helpful is it in the fight?
Li Xiya knew it well.
Now that immune accessories like bezoars have emerged, Li Xiya has found a way to deal with enemies with such skills.
"Direct immunity? Eliminate it from the root!"
“It’s no wonder that bezoars are of excellent quality!”
Li Xiya nodded slightly and stored it in his ivy backpack.
Then he took out a bottle of dark green and bubbling test tube-shaped medicine.
[Name: Poison Potion]
[Type: Potion·Consumption]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Effect: After using this potion, any weapon used by the player will be poisoned with debuff: causing 9 points of damage per second, lasting 5 seconds]
[Duration: 20 minutes]
[Cooling time: 12 hours]
[Specialization requirements: Medical D]
[Remarks: Poison potions can cause players to have poison debuffs on any weapon for a period of time, and the duration of the poison debuff will be refreshed with each attack]
[After the poison potion was developed and released, it was deeply loved by thieves and scouts, and was known as the carnival of despicable people. Do not lick the weapon during use, as it may cause poisoning]
The quality of poison potions is rare and excellent.
Li Xiya has only seen two kinds of excellent quality potions.
The first is the endurance potion.
The second type is the poison potion.
It has to be said that the effect of poison potion is still very powerful.
During use, any of the player's weapons will receive the poison debuff.
Within twenty minutes of the poison potion taking effect.
The user is equivalent to possessing a second-level passive skill, Poison.
For other players who are struggling to improve their combat effectiveness, poison potions will be a good helper in combat.
Even if the cooling time is as long as twelve hours, it will never eliminate the value of the poison potion.
only……
This bottle of potion is a timely help for ordinary players.
For Li Xiya, the poison potion was just the icing on the cake.
Under the blessing of scarlet authority.
Any of Li Xiya's attacks have the Bloody Slaughter debuff.
So no need to make a fuss.
Of course, if you get the poison potion formula...
The value is different again!
Li Xiya put away the formula and took out an indigo helmet from his ivy backpack.
[Name: Ancient Cobalt Helmet]
[Type: Armor·Parts·Ancient]
[Quality: Outstanding]
[Defense: 5]
[Effect 1: Player’s maximum magic value +40]
[Effect 2: Magic critical hit rate +6%]
[Durability: 500]
[Specialization requirements: Mage C, General C]
[Remarks: If the player kills any wasps and man-eater enemies in the underground jungle biome, there is a very small probability of dropping ancient cobalt suit parts]
[Although this armor set is called the Ancient Cobalt Set, it has nothing to do with the regular series of cobalt armor sets in the Sanctuary, and it does not require the use of cobalt ore for synthesis]
[The ancient cobalt suit has exactly the same effect as the jungle armor suit. Mixing the two can also achieve set rewards. The ancient cobalt suit is one of the creations of the ancient series. Players can regard it as a gift from the previous era]
Li Xiya: "!!!"
What the hell!
real or fake?
Li Xiya carefully looked at the panel information of the ancient cobalt helmet and immediately took a breath.
Ancient cobalt armor set?
Just one helmet part has two major bonus effects?
And look at the effects of these two major increases——
Increase maximum mana!
Increase magic critical hit rate!
It is simply tailor-made for mage players!
The most important thing is that the defense of this ancient cobalt helmet reaches 5 points.
You must know that a ninja armor set only increases defense by 9 points in total.
The most powerful tungsten armor set in the shelter at this stage, including the set bonus.
It only increases defense by 15 points.
And that's it, there are no other effects.
"Ancient series?"
"Gifts from players in the last era?"
Li Xiya showed a meaningful expression:
"interesting!"
Originally, he brought Celia and Skybreaker Gargoyle to the jungle biome with only one goal -
Gather materials to craft the Reborn Ax and Grass Sword.
But now the emergence of the ancient cobalt helmet has completely changed the goal.
Li Xiya murmured:
"Man-eaters and wasps?"
Since killing these two enemies has a chance to drop a series of parts of the ancient cobalt armor set.
Even if the probability is extremely slim, you must give it a try.
This ancient cobalt armor set isn't just useful for Celia.
It is also very useful for myself!
He is bound to win!
"call!"
After thinking about all this, Li Xiya let out a sigh of relief.
Store it in your backpack and look up in no time.
"boom!"
The Skybreaker Gargoyle just emerged from the hole.
It held a seed that exuded light green light in both hands and came to Li Xiya.
[Your Excellency, Commander, you are fortunate to have lived up to your command! 】
Li Xiya took the seed and observed it, and found this so-called jungle spore.
Although they are called spores, they are actually seeds, and they are about the size of a walnut.
"I got the jungle spores and more than fifty stingers..."
"The only material left is vines. If you collect some of them, you can use all your strength to spawn monsters!"
Li Xiya secretly made arrangements and had a complete plan for the next exploration.
He asked the Skybreaker Gargoyle to guard the side and gave her some iron ingots to replenish her energy reserves.
Then Li Xiya dug a small hole with a bone pickaxe.
He took out the beggar's chicken that he had processed yesterday from his backpack and put it into the pit.
Then fill it with soil, cut down a tree and light it with a torch.
Today, the team went to the jungle biome to explore, because of Celia.
Therefore, Li Xiya made all preparations in advance.
When the beggar's chicken is freshly baked, Celia wakes up from the smell.
The two people feasted in this strange biological community.
It's a joy to eat.
After eating, Li Xiya took Celia to continue exploring.
Next three hours.
The three-person team traveled over mountains and ridges and used metal detectors to dig out many jungle spores.
Along the way, we also killed a lot of spiked jungle slimes and stinging wasps.
Jungle Spores and Stingers are also increasingly harvested.
But even so, the vines are still missing.
Underground jungle biome, next to a large mountain range.
"call out!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Fireballs and sand bombs flew together, and wind blades and arrows were of the same color.
[Successfully killed the third-level stinger wasp captain and obtained stinger x1, scarlet point x180]
[Successfully killed the third level Stinger Wasp and ordinary, obtained Stinger x1, Scarlet Points x60]
【……】
After the battle, Li Xiya checked Ivy's backpack. Couldn't help but sigh.
Along the way, the three-person team killed hundreds of enemies of various colors.
But it still didn't drop, the parts of the second ancient cobalt armor suit.
Li Xiya didn't have much time left to read the invitation letter from the biome.
His patience was running out.
"I still don't believe it!"
Li Xiya waved his hand and led the team forward.
A quarter of an hour later.
"Didi!"
The metal detector issues a prompt——
【Underground cabin】
