A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 283 Rule

At this moment, the center of the square was full of people, not only residents of the town, but also tourists from other places. Everyone gathered together and gathered in front of a small booth.

Leon squeezed through the crowd with Abigail to the front and saw Lewis standing on the small platform with a lot of vine baskets around him.

"First of all, welcome everyone to Pelican Town for the annual Easter celebration. This traditional festival celebrating the rebirth of all things naturally includes the Easter-themed Easter egg scavenger hunt. Those who have already registered, please come up on stage. Those who haven't registered yet or are interested in participating can go up directly to receive their baskets."

As soon as the two arrived, they heard Lewis announcing that the Easter egg treasure hunt had entered the preparation stage.

Then Abigail dragged Leon onto the stage, along with Maru, Vincent, Jas, and a blond boy named Alex.

Including Leon and Abigail, the number of players appearing in Pelican Town is seven.

But this activity was not just for these seven people. Some social phobics among the tourists also came on stage and joined the Easter egg treasure hunt. There were four men, two women, and a child who was half a head taller than Vincent, making it exactly seven people.

Then, under Lewis's command, everyone took a small basket and stood on Lewis' left and right sides, ready to go. Lewis continued to speak.

"I didn't expect so many participants in this year's Easter egg treasure hunt. It's really exciting. It means the competition will be even more suspenseful and intense. But it's still a game after all. I hope everyone enjoys this treasure hunt and that every participant can fill their basket. Friendly reminder: once you fill your basket, all the eggs are yours."

Lewis said with a smile, and then stated some rules that Abigail and Leon had mentioned before that participants of the Easter egg treasure hunt needed to pay attention to, and supplemented the fifth rule that Abigail had forgotten.

"As for the fifth rule, which is also my favorite, it's that during the Easter egg treasure hunt, the contestant who collects the fewest eggs must wear a specially prepared bunny suit and serve as the Easter mascot for today, taking a photo with everyone."

"."

After hearing this rule that Abigail had forgotten but was very important, Leon remained silent, but did not forget to focus his threatening eyes on Abigail.

There is no need to think about it. Abigail must have deliberately "forgotten" this rule to prevent Leon from changing his mind, so that she can get all the Easter eggs from Leon smoothly and enjoy the scene of Leon wearing a doll costume.

I have to say it. Abigail really showed the connection between my brother and me, and the brain games between my brother and me.

Abigail also realized this and explained to Leon with a wry smile, "Don't worry. Vincent will also give all the Easter eggs to Jas, except for you. Then both of you will have zero Easter eggs. You just need to keep one Easter egg with you in advance."

"But I think it would be safer if I gave up the cooperation and became an individual contestant." Leon asked Abigail with a smirk on his face: "What do you think?"

"Leon, you can't cheat. We agreed on this in advance. And if you don't help me, I will definitely not gain as much as two people." Abigail softened immediately after hearing this, and she hugged Leon's arm and shook him.

"Please, Leon, I really want to win." "Oh, okay." Leon was actually joking with Abigail, and now Abigail brought out this attitude again, and Leon was too embarrassed to refuse.

There's nothing you can do about it, he responds to soft tactics and won't respond to harsh ones.

"Hehe, I knew you would help me, but don't worry, I definitely won't let you become the mascot. Just do as I say and leave an Easter egg, and there will be absolutely no problem. Vincent was the mascot last year, and if nothing unexpected happens today, Vincent should still be the mascot. You have someone to back you up, so what are you afraid of?"

When Abigail heard Leon's compromise, she immediately smiled and comforted Leon.

Leon glanced at Abigail without saying anything. The girl's expression changed frighteningly fast. She was submissive when she was begging him just now, but now that she got his promise, she immediately let go of his hand and started to fool him, highlighting her behavior of being respectful at first and arrogant later.

While Lyon and Abigail were chatting, Lewis also discussed with the participating tourists. After making sure that no one chose to give up the game because of resisting the fifth rule, he took out his whistle and spoke.

"Alright, after I blow the whistle, everyone has 15 minutes to search for the Easter eggs. After 15 minutes, I'll blow the whistle again. Everyone must return here within five minutes to count the Easter eggs. If you exceed the time limit, you will be declared the loser. Are you ready?"

"Ready!"

The unanimous response made Lewis smile, and then he put the whistle in his mouth and blew a high-pitched and sharp whistle.

As the whistle sounded, Leon and Abigail had a quick exchange, and then they dispersed to the left and right sides of the booth.

Still following the route they took yesterday to search for Easter eggs, Leon started from the west side of the square and Abigail started from the east side.

Except for Leon and Abigail, other participants also quickly headed towards the surroundings of the square. Every contestant carrying a basket started their own Easter egg treasure hunt at the first opportunity.

Lyon was the first to leave the square and headed straight for the grass at the edge of the square to start searching. The good visibility during the day and the conspicuous color of the Easter eggs allowed Lyon to immediately lock onto an Easter egg lying quietly on the grass.

He stepped forward, grabbed the Easter egg and threw it into the basket. Lyon continued to search quickly along the path from west to south.

He had no intention of searching carefully in every corner. After all, there were more than 200 Easter eggs there. It would definitely not be worth it to waste time for a few very hidden Easter eggs.

The real Pelican Town is very different from the one in the game. You can make a circle around the square in one minute. The space around the Pelican Town Square is extremely spacious and vast. For example, it takes about six minutes to walk from Harvey's clinic to Emily and Hayley's home at No. 2 Willow Lane, and that's if you walk in a straight line.

　Thank you, Brother Kunyu, for another 10000 Qidian coins reward. Thank you for your support. I wish you all the best, good health, and happiness every day. Love you!
