A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 506 What the hell is a surprise! (Monthly ticket plus more)
Although the scene of the first meeting with the dwarf was not as harmonious as Leon had expected, Leon was still quite interested in the task proposed by the dwarf. After all, a task means a reward.

"My tribe has been fighting the Shadow People for thousands of years, so don't try to cheat me with the Shadow Essence obtained by others."

Seeing that Leon agreed so readily, the dwarf was surprised, but he also reminded Leon not to cheat.

"No problem." Leon shrugged and then suggested, "I'll take the order, but before I go to the mine, can I take a look at your goods? I need to buy some things that will help me deal with those shadow people."

"I will only trust you after you complete the commission." The dwarf shook his head and rejected Leon's proposal.

"Okay." Leon didn't force it. He turned around and left along the way he came. When he left, Leon always felt that someone was staring at him from behind. It was not until he arrived in front of the elevator that the prying gaze disappeared.

"It's a good idea to be vigilant. It seems that the dwarves have been severely harmed by the shadow people."

Thinking of the dwarf's attitude just now, Leon felt a little emotional. Everything seemed so peaceful in Stardew Valley, but outside Stardew Valley, or in other circles outside of human civilization, things did not seem stable.

After taking the elevator down to the 90th floor, Leon, already wearing the Icethorn Beast Skin Suit, began his journey into the mines today.

After some mining and killing monsters, Lyon quickly completed the commission to hunt 5 shadow men, but Lyon did not stop and return to the surface to find the dwarf to report, but continued to go deeper into the mine.

The cherry bombs made in advance have become another powerful tool for Lyon's mining. Individual rock ores are broken by hand, and when large pieces of rock minerals are gathered together, Lyon will not be stingy with the cherry bombs. This two-pronged approach is incredibly efficient.

"Finally, it's the 100th floor."

Looking at the staircase mine hidden under the gold ore on the 99th floor, Leon wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh.

Then Leon slid down the stairs without hesitation. The moment he landed, he rushed towards the treasure chest in the middle.

After opening the treasure chest, a five-pointed star-shaped purple fruit lay quietly inside, with twinkling starlight on the surface of the fruit, which was extremely gorgeous.

After taking it out, Leon did not swallow it immediately, but carefully put it into his backpack.

After all, eating the Star Fruit might require lying down for a while, and Leon is not sure about the safety of the mine. It is not safe to eat it here. It is better to wait until he returns to the surface and find Linus to help watch over him. This is the safest choice.

"Hmm? Still got some?"

Just as he was about to run away, Leon discovered that there was still something in the box after the Star Fruit was taken away. He immediately reached out and fished it out, and found that it was actually a tattered doll.

"Ancient doll (Antique): An ancient doll covered in dirt. This doll can be used as a toy, decoration, or a prop in certain rituals."

In addition to this thing, there was also a note.

"Drop it into the lava."

The handwriting is a bit sloppy, and it seems that the writer wrote this sentence quite casually.

In the game, Leon had never found any other collections except the Star Fruit in the box on the 100th floor. The appearance of this ancient doll and the note made him feel that something was wrong.

However, considering that the box was prepared by Mr. Qi, and Mr. Qi should not cheat him, Lyon thought he could still give it a try.

So Leon, carrying the ancient doll, walked to the edge of the magma pool. This was a feature of the 100th floor, the same as the underground lakes in the mines on the 20th and 60th floors, except that the water here was magma.

Leon grabbed the ancient doll and threw it into the lava without hesitation. When the bubbling lava completely devoured the doll, the lava suddenly began to boil. Then, a creature composed entirely of bones rushed out of the lava and pounced on Leon.

"Fuck!"

The sudden attack made Leon curse, and his first reaction was to roll to the side to avoid the impact of the bone snake.

While dodging, the Galaxy Watermelon Knife also fell into Leon's hands, but before Leon could stand up and fight back, the bone snake turned into particles and dissipated in the air.

Only an emerald green diamond-shaped crystal and the paper wrapped around it were left, lying quietly on the ground.

Lyon:
I'm glad that you have reached the 100th floor and received the gifts and surprises I prepared for you. I hope you like them.

As for this thing, it is the third treasure I prepared for you. How to find the place where it should be placed and get the treasure it represents is up to you to figure it out.

--together."

"hiss"

Thinking that he was indeed frightened by the bone snake just now, but he really didn't feel happy or anything, Lyon felt a headache.

Fortunately, it was a joke from Mr. Qi, otherwise he would have to deal with a bone snake that could live in magma by himself. Leon felt that he would not be able to defeat it.

After throwing the note into the magma, Leon took the emerald green crystal in his hand.

"Alien Crystal: A crystal of unknown origin that seems to be able to be mounted on something."

Looking at the introduction given by the system, Leon played with the small crystal and searched the game database in his memory, but he couldn't find anything similar for a long time.

"There are so many new things in this world."

After confirming that it was something new that had never appeared in the game, Leon stuffed it into his backpack.

As for finding the base to embed this thing, Lyon has not thought about it yet. This treasure hunt game is much more difficult than the previous ones. Apart from this crystal stone, there is no map, let alone a clue. He has no idea where to start and can only leave it to fate.

Fortunately, Mr. Qi didn't seem to impose any time limit in this game. He just told Leon that this thing was the key to the third treasure, so there was no need to rush.

After powering on the elevator, Leon took it back to the surface. At the same time, he sorted out the things in his bag, first put away the Icethorn Skin Set, and then took out five freshly dropped Void Essences. The moment the elevator door opened, he walked towards the thing where the dwarves temporarily lived.

Just as he passed through the tunnel, the familiar sword blade was pressed against Leon's knee.

This made Lyon want to complain, because such a posture had no killing power at all. If the dwarf really attacked, at most it would make Lyon unable to move and would not die immediately. Then when Lyon reacted, he could just reach out and cut off the dwarf's head.

However, Leon still didn't intend to share this kind of thing with the dwarf. He simply threw the five void essences in his hand on the ground and spoke.

"Inspect the goods?"
