A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 176 She Gave Too Much
Lyon had already built up a psychological defense line and made two contingency plans in his mind.

One is the mermaid queen who is stunningly beautiful and even more stunningly beautiful than the young mermaid girl. The other is the mermaid queen who is probably similar to the elderly mermaid lady. However, when he really saw the mermaid queen, his psychological defenses completely collapsed.

The mermaid queen has the same upper body as humans, with large areas of milky white skin exposed that is shiny and elastic. Her body curves are slender yet powerful. The real mermaid line and the surging background make even top supermodels pale in comparison.

The fishtail on the lower body is also wrapped in golden fish scales, and a chain skirt made of black and white pearls as the main material is hung on the slender fishtail, which looks extremely noble.

But above the neck of such a perfect body, the face that should have been stunning has grown into the shape of an anglerfish. This outrageous combination makes Leon inexplicably understand the true meaning of Lu Bu riding a dog.

At this moment, Leon just wanted to ask the mermaid queen whether she was a fellow Earthling and whether she had once lived temporarily near an island country.

Otherwise, how could he look so ferocious? With that head, Leon didn't believe that the other party had never drunk nuclear waste water.

"Guardian, long time no see."

The mermaid queen's voice is like the sound of nature, and the timbre of each word is like a pleasant note, melodious and lingering.

"Ugh"

This time, Leon finally couldn't help but sigh. There was nothing he could do. A top-notch figure and a siren's voice, these two things would definitely be a plus for any normal-looking woman, but for someone with an anglerfish's head to have them, it was really a pity.

Rasmodesm glanced at the sighing Leon in confusion, not understanding what was wrong with this guy. However, he still maintained respect for the Mermaid Queen. "Long time no see, Your Majesty. It's a pleasure to see you still so energetic."

"Hahaha, thank you. I don't understand why I'm getting younger and younger." The queen's laughter made Leon's ears numb. If this kind of laughter was heard in public, it would probably be blurred.

After chatting with Rasmodes, the Mermaid Queen turned her gaze to Leon, who was standing beside him. "This is the explorer you told me about, right? If I remember correctly, his name is Leon, right?"

“Yes.” Leon nodded, trying to remain calm as he looked into the anglerfish’s eyes. “It’s an honor to meet you, Your Majesty.”

"Don't be so polite. You helped the mermaids retrieve their relics, so you are the distinguished guest of the mermaids." The mermaid queen comforted Leon.

After that, the mermaid queen called out to the mermaid aunt beside her and whispered a few words in her ear. The mermaid aunt quickly swam to the area behind the oyster shell-shaped bed. After a while, she came to Leon with a small box and put it down.

"Here are some thank you gifts prepared for you, please don't refuse."

After the Mermaid Queen finished speaking, Aunt Mermaid opened the box, revealing the treasures inside.

It was a whole box of pearls, round and plump, the size of lychees. Lyon roughly counted them and found that there were at least 20 pearls in the box.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Leon immediately reached out and took the box, then quickly stuffed it into his system backpack. If it were a box of gold jewelry, Leon might have briefly declined it to show his humility, but this box of pearls was something Leon couldn't refuse. He was afraid that if he refused, the mermaid queen would take it seriously, so he didn't want to take any risks.

At this moment, even if the mermaid queen had the head of an anglerfish, Leon looked much brighter and more charming. There was no way, she gave too much.

This is a pearl, the best gift in Stardew Valley. Almost everyone likes it. Moreover, the value of the pearl itself is higher than the diamonds in the mine. The only thing that can compare with its price and rarity is the colorful fragments.

Although Lyon was not quite sure about the exact price of pearls in the real world, he felt that it should not be too low.

Leon's quick and decisive action surprised Rasmodesm. He originally thought that Leon would be polite, but who knew that this guy had put the things away before he could persuade him to accept the gift.

The mermaid queen said happily, "It seems you're very satisfied with this gift. That's good. After all, there are so many things to take out of the ocean. I didn't know what you would like, so I chose based on other people's favorite marine specialties. Sure enough, I made the right choice."

"I like anything that is given by Her Majesty the Queen." Lyon's attitude at the moment is very good. After all, he is the sponsor, and there is nothing shameful in licking him. It's money-making, so it's not shameful.

"You are such a sweet-talking boy, and you are also very handsome. I think I like you a little." The Mermaid Queen praised Leon with great approval.

This sentence made Leon calm down instantly. Although the mermaid queen's wealth made her look powerful, the anglerfish head was beyond Leon's aesthetic limit after all. So Leon immediately responded to what the other party said.

"It is my pleasure, Your Majesty. But I am just an ordinary human farmer, unworthy of Your Majesty the Queen."

"You don't have to be so humble. You are now a distinguished guest of the mermaid clan and our friend. We can communicate with you on an equal footing." The mermaid queen smiled and comforted Leon.

"I am terrified." Lyon bowed with his hands and bent his waist, not daring to look directly at the mermaid queen.

"Okay, Your Majesty, stop teasing this child. The person has been seen, and the lost Neptune Greatsword has been delivered to the elder. After all, we are not marine creatures. If there is nothing else, I should take him back to land." Rasmodes on the side couldn't stand it anymore and spoke for Leon.

"I have prepared a banquet for the two of you. Guardian and Brother Leon, aren't you going to stay and join us?" The Mermaid Queen asked with some regret.

"No, I guess the matter of the Elemental City is much more important than hosting us," Rasmodes reminded.

"Indeed, the Shadow Man must pay for this." After hearing this reminder, the Mermaid Queen's tone became much more serious and cold. Then she seemed to want to hit something, and took out a long spiral conch the size of a palm from somewhere on her body and threw it at Leon.

"Leon, take this. If you run into trouble at sea in the future, you can blow it. The mermaids who hear the horn will come to your location and help you. This can be considered a thank you gift."
