Plain areas.
Dense and towering trees stretched out countless branches to cover the sky.
It was as if not even a ray of sunlight could penetrate through the gap.
But in the forest, it is not as bleak as imagined.
On the contrary, there is a blue or even green light everywhere in the forest.
If any player scans the surrounding forest here, they will find it.
These trees in the forest are not ordinary big trees.
The trunk, branches, and treetops are undoubtedly not made of sapphire.
This is not so much a forest as a sapphire gem mine.
It's just that... this mine is not shown in the form of a mine cave.
The two-star gem mine is no longer a mine, but a forest.
Of course, the quantity and quality of gems have also improved a lot.
But these big trees made of sapphire gems are just sapphire trees.
After cutting down, only sapphire gems will be dropped, but sapphire essence fruits will not be dropped.
Because these trees, in essence, are still just another manifestation of gemstones. They are dead objects, not living plants.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that even with the light emitted by the blue jade tree.
This forest is still quiet and lifeless.
"puff!"
The teleportation light curtain flowing with seven colors slowly unfolded until the two of them were tall.
Li Xiya took the lead and led Celia and the Gargoyle out of the teleportation light curtain.
"Wow……"
Celia looked around excitedly, and looked amazed when she saw the surrounding environment and the sapphire trees emitting light.
Women are naturally attracted by gemstones that exude luster.
Celia is no exception.
"It's so beautiful...Is this the gem mine?"
"But why does it look like this is a forest?"
Celia looked at Li Xiya suspiciously.
"Daddy, you said before that you have been to the gem mine once."
"Dad, was the gem mine you experienced also like this?"
Li Xiya shook his head:
"Maybe it's because the gem mine I explored and adventured before is only one-star, so the landscape environment is just like the literal meaning, it's a small mine."
Li Xiya looked around and found that wherever he looked, there were thick blue jade trees.
"I don't think this should be called the Gem Mine. It would be more appropriate to rename it the Gem Forest."
"Hahaha, who cares!"
Celia said excitedly:
"As long as I can explore and adventure with my godfather, there is no difference between the gem mine and the gem forest to me."
"Come on, godfather, let's hurry up and explore!"
Li Xiya shook his head and said:
"Wait a minute, let me test my guess."
"oh……"
Li Xiya took out the ax of regeneration and came to a blue jade tree.
"Click!"
"Click!"
I saw Li Xiya wielding the ax of regeneration and constantly cutting down the blue jade tree.
Although the level of the blue jade tree is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary trees.
But the Regeneration Ax is not a vegetarian, with the increase in felling efficiency.
Li Xiya easily chopped down the blue jade tree in front of him.
[Successfully cut down the sapphire tree and obtain sapphire x15]
"Huh? Lan Yushu?"
Li Xiya frowned slightly when he heard the system prompt.
He keenly noticed a difference.
Li Xiya originally thought that the blue jade trees in front of him were the same as topaz gem trees.
After cutting down, not only the corresponding gems will be dropped, but also the essence fruit may be dropped.
But it turned out that this was just Li Xiya's guess.
Li Xiya still knew the difference between the sapphire tree and the sapphire gem tree.
By cutting it down, he could also discover that the sapphire tree in front of him was just a dead thing.
This way.
The value of this forest of blue jade trees in Li Xiya's heart was greatly reduced.
after all……
Although sapphire gemstones are relatively good gemstone resources.
But compared to the Gem Essence Fruit, it’s like heaven and earth.
Thinking about this.
Li Xiya put away the ax of rebirth.
for other players.
Enter the 2-star Gem Mine biome even if no enemies are encountered.
Just by cutting down the sapphire tree, you can 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 letter of challenge rather than an invitation.
So you don't have to take any risks.
Just by spending some energy and time, you can get a lot of gem resources.
I believe not many players will refuse.
Even if this method is not the most efficient.
But in the face of safety factors, everything is negotiable.
but……
For Li Xiya, Celia, and Skybreaker Gargoyle, this weird and powerful three-person team.
What they pursue is the ultimate.
Cut down the blue jade tree?
That is a choice made by mediocre people.
As a man at the top of the regional channel, Li Xiya naturally had his choice when faced with this topic.
"Celia, 9527, let's go for a walk!"
Li Xiya waved calmly and headed towards the forest at the lead.
"Great!"
Celia pumped her fist excitedly and followed Li Xiya with small steps.
As for the Skybreaker Gargoyle, he has a taciturn image. He just holds a crossbow and walks at the end to guard against sudden dangers.
The three-person team gradually moved away from the transfer point.
A quarter of an hour of exploration.
In this forest, in addition to the blue jade trees, there are also blue jade trees.
The metal detector in the backpack kept beeping.
But the resource displayed by the metal detector is none other than the blue jade tree that can be seen everywhere.
This at least proves one thing from the side.
In the current forest, except for sapphire, which is a rare resource, there are no other resources.
In comparison, metal detectors sound almost all the time.
The monster radar in the backpack did not sound an alarm sound during this part of the journey.
In this case, there are only two answers -
Either there are no enemies in this sapphire forest, and the team 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 all live in a fixed area.
It is precisely because of this that there may be no enemies appearing in other areas.
Or maybe both?
But consider that this is within the two-star gem mine biome.
Li Xiya prefers that the enemies this time are of the gregarious type.
So you either don't encounter it, or you encounter a lot of it.
For this reason, Li Xiya also specially asked Celia to take out the ax of regeneration and not to be careless.
The three-person team explored deep into the forest for another quarter of an hour.
"Didi!"
"Didi!"
[Rare·Sapphire Centaur Knight·Captain]
The monster radar, which had been silent for a long time, finally sounded the alarm at this moment.
Li Xiya scanned the real-time radar map in front of him.
I found a group of enemies directly ahead, gradually approaching the forest.
Li Xiya glanced at the radar map.
I found that there were at least twenty monster icons on the map.
"Azure 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 line.
But judging from the action route of this team of blue jade centaur knights.
The two parties are likely to pass each other and not collide head-on.
Think of this.
Li Xiya turned his head:
"Celia, in 9527, an enemy appears. Follow me and take a detour to take a look."
"No one needs to attack first without my order!"
Celia nodded heavily:
"clear!"
[Yes, Commander, I will follow your orders]
The three-person team used advanced advanced mobile accessories to get on the road.
Hurrying ahead of the blue jade centaur knight team, they came to a small slope and squatted down.
It didn't take long.
The three of them saw a team riding tall horses, patrolling the surroundings along a fixed route.
No!
The word "riding" cannot be used.
Because the horse and the rider are actually the same person.
Or maybe that's why.
These enemies are called Sapphire Centaur Knights.
Because they are humanoid enemies, each Sapphire Centaur knight is armored and strong.
Looking at this appearance, he looks quite elite.
This team of blue jade centaur knights was on patrol.
If a sapphire tree is found in the sapphire forest that has grown to the size of three people, the sapphire will be harvested and a new seedling will be planted.
This seems to be one of their daily tasks.
Li Xiya looked intently.

[Remarks: The Sapphire Centaur Knight is a unique type of enemy in the gem mine, and is the guardian and companion of the Sapphire Forest. As a special type of enemy, the Sapphire Centaur Knight has almost no weaknesses]
[Specific combination skills also make the Sapphire Centaur Knights more powerful. They are the absolute overlords of the Sapphire Forest. When players fight, please be careful with their swords.]
Li Xiya nodded slightly after checking the panel data of the Sapphire Centaur Knight.
how to say……
It is indeed a two-star gem mine.
The strength of unique rare types of enemies is extraordinary.
But that's all.
Li Xiya killed not only a thousand but also eight hundred enemies of this strength.
At this level, Li Xiya couldn't even feel any fear.
Sapphire Centaur Knight because of humanoid enemies.
Not only does it have a weapon slot and an armor slot.
It also has active skills, passive skills, and bonds of corresponding levels.
But what makes Li Xiya curious is...
The sapphire centaur knight actually has a combination of skills?
It's just that this combo skill is a passive skill type.
That is to say...
As the survival game progresses, may we encounter active combination skills in the future?
Although the combo skill of "Charging into the Battle" requires at least 12 Sapphire Centaur Knights, if the number is lower than this number, the combo skill will automatically fail.
But the movement speed is +15%, and the melee attack speed is +10%. These two bonuses are not weak.
It is almost 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.
It must be quite tricky for an average player to encounter the Sapphire Centaur Knight.
But Li Xiya is not among this general group.
Seeing that the blue jade centaur knight team is getting closer and closer to the hillside where the three of them are.
Li Xiya took out a piece of pumpkin pie and stuffed it into his mouth to provide the buff, then turned his head to signal.
Celia and the Skybreaker Gargoyle immediately understood.
"beat!"
Following Li Xiya's order, the three of them fully displayed their skills.
"call out!"
"boom!"
"Snapped!"
The instant burst damage of the three-person team reached its extreme at this moment.
I saw the young wind blade wings growing on Li Xiya's back.
A series of light cyan wind blades rushed towards the leading sapphire centaur knight at extremely fast speeds.
【-337】
【-337】
【-774! 】
Because of the ancient cobalt armor set, the magic critical hit rate has been greatly increased.
The probability of Li Xiya using various skills to cause critical damage to enemies has been increased.
The extremely terrifying damage took away many sapphire centaur knights in an instant.
[Successfully killed the third level, rare, sapphire centaur knight, captain, and obtained sapphire gem x30, scarlet point x300]
[Successfully killed the third level·rare·sapphire centaur knight·elite, and obtained sapphire gem x20, scarlet point x200]
【……】
Celia's firepower on the side was equally fierce.
She was seen holding the Ax of Regeneration staff, and the magic navigation bomb was thrown out crazily with the blessing of the racial talent witch.
No matter which direction each magic navigation bomb is aimed at, even if it is in the opposite direction, it will accurately bombard every sapphire centaur knight with its automatic tracking characteristics.
Compared with Li Xiya and Celia, the method of breaking through the gargoyles seems lackluster.
But the inheritance of breaking the sky is not covered. Even if the Sapphire Centaur Knight reacts later and uses the active skill Sapphire: Armor, it cannot stop the arrows that suddenly appear close at hand.
The absolute strong man in the Blue Jade Forest was completely crushed by the absolute strength in front of the three-person team.
[Successfully killed the third level·rare·sapphire centaur knight·captain, received gift x1, blessing of the goddess of life x1, sapphire gem x30, scarlet point x300]
When the last blue jade centaur knight died, Li Xiya glanced at the kill prompt.
"Um?"
"Is it shipped?!"
