Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

"I'm not afraid of death again~"

"It seems like an advanced player? I don't know how far this one can go with the gems."

"Let's make a bet?"

"Okay!"

……

Fang Yi was still listening, and the players around him did not deliberately lower their voices, and the teasing words came to Fang Yi's ears word by word.Fang Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he passed the hard-working miners and walked towards the bottom of the pit along the winding mountain road.

In the Killer Swamp to the south of Ximen Port, that Rogier said that the only recorded place of production of the Tears of Suren is the meteor crater next to Cedar City, which should be the King's Mine.

There are not only a large number of natural meteorites here, but also many underground mine veins, and the production of gemstones is not new.As it gradually approached the bottom of the crater, the dark ground that I saw before gradually became clear.

It doesn't look like much from above, but when you get closer, you realize that the bottom of the pit, which was originally just a black spot, is as big as a real football field!The rough ground is covered with black and gray rocks.The surface of these rocks is very smooth, it looks like a melted candle, and the larger ones are like ordinary rooms. [

A hive of hollows dotted the black rock, giving the clearing the appearance of a burnt cheese.Fang Yi stretched out his hand and pressed the surface of the stone. It didn't feel as cold as imagined, but it was slightly warm.

From time to time, figures of players flashed past in the large and small holes, presumably they were people who ventured here to pan for gold.According to the technique of the previous soldier.The highest yields of gemstones lie below these holes, where several natural mines are connected.There are often teams to explore inside.

"Friend... is it really you?"

Fang Yi found a hole with a relatively large diameter, and when he was about to get in, a player's voice came from behind him.Fang Yi looked back, and raised his eyebrows——acquaintance~

Standing behind him was a knight, a human ranger and a dwarf. They were the three unlucky ones who had led the Dire Tiger to his hiding place—but speaking of it, he seemed to be the most unlucky one...

Many thoughts flashed through Fang Yi's mind, and the smiling human knight had already walked in front of Fang Yi. "Haha, it's really you! You didn't hang up?...Um...I don't mean anything else, I mean, that dire tiger is insanely fast in the jungle!"

"I'm lucky..."

Fang Yi rolled his eyes, waved at the three of them, and turned to leave.These three didn't deliberately lure the boss to their side, so there was no enmity at all.Fang Yi was not so narrow-minded, he had to find a scapegoat for his black nose and swollen face.

"Hey, buddy, don't worry," the human knight saw Fang Yi turn around and leave, and immediately followed up.He said with a smile, "Let's go in and mine too. How about together? The underground mines and caves are very complicated, and we are very familiar here..."

"No need, I'm used to being alone." Fang Yi turned his head to look at the paladin, indicating that he was not interested.Then the stealth skill was directly activated.

Seeing Fang Yi's figure disappearing into the air, the paladin's next words were also blocked, and he patted his head in frustration.

The human paladin didn't intend to say hello to Fang Yi at first, after all, he was unlucky because of himself. Judging by the scratches on the other party's equipment, it was obvious that it took a lot of effort to escape from the boss.However, after seeing Fang Yi's professional badge inadvertently, the paladin immediately changed his mind.

The three of us haven't completed the advanced task yet. It is too risky to come here to collect gems. It is naturally the best choice to have an advanced player to protect us. However, seeing the resolute rejection of his clothes, the paladin had to give up this plan. .

"What are you dragging, boss, why don't we go find someone else, and he is not an advanced player here." The dwarf player, who is only half the height of a paladin, snorted and looked up at his two teammates, "It's not a big deal If you pay some money, you have to get a few gems back, and get all the things for the advanced task~"

*** [

Before leaving Xingmu City, Fang Yi had already searched the auction house thoroughly. There was no Tears of Su Lun and Xing Caijing for sale, and the purchase posts posted on the forum were like nothing, so Fang Yi's expectations for here Still pretty high.

The cave was unexpectedly warm. Compared with the cool autumn wind outside, the temperature here seemed to be that of late spring, which made Fang Yi's weather-beaten old face feel much more comfortable immediately.

What the paladin just said was right, the mines here seemed to be formed naturally, without any rules at all, and the shadowy torches could only illuminate a small area, because the length of the straight passage was hardly more than twenty feet.

The jingling echoes in the mine were endless, but Fang Yi didn't stop, but let the players who had been mining a few times go straight to the ground.

The warrior players said clearly before that the deeper you go underground, the more precious the gems produced are. For gems such as flame agate and green-eyed agate that are in high demand for alchemy and forging, as long as you dig them out, you don’t have to worry about sales at all. .

As for what the soldiers reminded themselves, the mine at the bottom of the crater is extremely complicated, and there are powerful monsters guarding the depths. If you don’t go too deep, Fang Yi is actually quite happy to hear that: there are monsters, which means there are treasures, so you come by yourself Is there a purpose here?

The "hissing" sound from the shadow interrupted Fang Yi's thoughts, and the thick snake body was entrenched in the shadow where the torch could not reach, waiting for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.

It's a pity that Fang Yi himself is in a stealth state, and the function of the giant cloak to block the smell works 24 hours a day.The orochi, who was originally a sneak attacker, was directly stabbed seven inches above by the dagger protruding from the void, and immediately lost his ability to move.

This is... the shadow python?

For an ordinary monster of the twenty-or so level, Fang Yi, who succeeded in a sneak attack, chopped the python into pieces with a few knives, but Fang Yi was greatly puzzled by the shape of this monster-white eyes, a snake body without scales, and The system prompt clearly stated that this guy has the property of avoiding physical damage while hiding in the shadows, which made Fang Yi immediately think of the name of a monster.

This thing is not a beast~

Fang Yi was peeling the snake's skin, while thinking, the shadow python is a creature from another world, and it can only be seen in the depths of the dark area, or in some other world scenes, so close to the surface, it is not their best favorite living environment.

Fang Yi packed up the materials and was extra careful: there could be shadow pythons and other monsters here - none of these things are easy to mess with.

As if to verify Fang Yi's conjecture, shadow pythons began to appear in groups as they gradually went deeper underground, occupying most of the space in the tunnel.Even if Fang Yi had enough confidence in his own skills, he had to be careful.

Ordinary armor has no effect on these snake teeth made of negative energy. After all, it is impossible for Fang Yi to wrap himself in a cloak~

Fang Yi stepped over the snake's nest carefully, crossing the most dangerous area in a thrilling manner. After that, he didn't encounter any monsters. Instead, there was the familiar "jingling" sound of knocking on stones It reached Fang Yi's ears again.

Following the sound, Fang Yi, who was secretly happy, accelerated his speed. After turning a few turns, he felt a bright light in front of his eyes, and a rock hall appeared in front of him.

This is the main hall that the warrior player mentioned, right?

The cave that appeared in front of me was a natural underground space, as if a huge air bubble was suddenly stuffed in the stone. On the top of the smooth arc was a smooth mirror-like stone, while the ground was full of potholes and depressions.

Dozens of torches brightly illuminate this not-so-large space, and dozens of players are digging on the stone wall with their mining hoes in suspense.

This should be the deepest part of the cave~

"Hey buddy, how did you get out of here?"

The nearest player saw Fang Yi climbing out of the steep cave, and immediately shouted in surprise, "You didn't sneak here from the snake's den, did you?"

"Er...it should be," Fang Yi scratched his head and smiled, "This is my first time here~"

"Master~"

The players next to him also raised their heads, and looked at Fang Yi with admiration and surprise in their eyes. A player who looked about 50 or [-] gave Fang Yi a thumbs up, "You are amazing! It's easy to come down from there. Time, the gamble is life!"

Fang Yi was embarrassed by the players, so he could only giggle, but this group of players was very chatty, and Fang Yi quickly became friends with them.

It is doubtful that those who can come here are not the elites in Cedar City—almost all the well-known player blacksmiths gather here.Because of their superb craftsmanship, everyone has enough funds in their hands, and they usually gather together, hire some professional players as bodyguards, and come here to collect ores, so they are familiar with each other.

"My name is Digger,"

The middle-aged man who started talking to Fang Yi introduced with a smile, "These are friends from Snowwood City~, everyone makes a living by mining."

Fang Yi smiled and nodded, and introduced himself to a few people, "Call me Cube. I heard that the gems here cannot be taken out, and they will be robbed by monsters halfway. Is it true? Then how dare you Come here to dig gems?"

"Haha, there are so many of us~"

The digging warrior laughed, and Fang Yi asked this question, which made people know that he was a novice at a glance, "We have nearly 50 people to protect one, as long as he returns to Xueshan City with gems, we will all get a rank one, that's okay." That's enough~"

Fang Yi raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look at the players scattered around and continued to mine, and did not express his surprise: so many people obviously don't know each other in reality, if they can think of this method, the relationship between each other Trust is really enviable~(To be continued.
