A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 710 Level Wild Collection
Once you've made your decision, it's time to set off.

After preparing food and water, and taking a super bomb and a pickaxe, Leon headed straight for the northern foothills.

He walked through the edge of the forest with ease, followed the high slope of the northern foothills to the mine lake, and then crossed the wooden bridge connecting the west and the east. The entrance to the abandoned mine was right in front of Lyon.

After entering and pressing the elevator button, Lyon took the opportunity to change into the ice thorn beast skin suit while the elevator was going up. Although it was summer, the temperature at the entrance of the mine was high. After putting on the ice thorn beast skin suit, Lyon shivered with cold.

Fortunately, it didn't affect my movements. I got on the elevator and waited for it to take me to the 105th floor underground. The moment the elevator door opened, I instantly felt a lot warmer.

"Get to work, get to work."

Lyon muttered to himself as he looked around the mine, which was quite different from the last time. He took out a super bomb from his backpack, lit it, and threw it towards the rocks and ore veins in the corner of this floor.

"Oh!"

After a deafening thud, the area where the super bomb exploded was cleared in an instant, and stones, iron ore, gold ore, and magma crystal balls were scattered on the ground. Leon even saw two irregular diamonds.

"It's not in vain that I chose the profession of geologist."

When Leon saw the diamond, he immediately ran over and picked it up. The diamond, the size of a quail egg, felt heavy in his hand. Although it was not polished, its transparency and luster were not much worse than those that had been polished.

If a diamond like this were placed on Earth, it would probably be sold at a sky-high price, but in this world, it starts at 1500G, and at this size, it is estimated to be around 2-3000G. It may be more expensive after polishing, but not by much. However, it is still a good income.

A good start, which made Lyon more open-minded about his bad luck today.

He collected a lot of materials from the ground, but unfortunately there were no stairwells or potholes in this blasting area, so Lyon had no choice but to move on.

Not all stones and mineral veins are generated together on a large scale. Some independent stones and two or three rock mineral veins separated by only one step away, etc., if super bombs are used to clear the way, it will obviously be a disadvantage, so when Lyon encounters such things, he just smashes them with a steel pickaxe.

Finally, at a corner, Leon found the stairwell leading to the 106th floor. It was naturally formed and not hidden under a stone or mineral vein.

After climbing down the 106th floor, Leon's eyes widened instantly when he landed.

Reddish-brown soil and sparse stones, but these are not the main points. The main point is that a large number of red and purple mushrooms grow on this layer of soil.

"Finally encountered the mushroom layer. Is today's luck really that bad?"

Looking at the mushrooms on the ground, Leon couldn't help but sigh, then he squatted down and picked the red mushroom closest to him.

Comparing it with the red mushrooms I picked in the cave on the farm, this one is obviously much larger and more colorful. The white spots on the red cap are also denser, and milky white juice will ooze out from the bottom of the mushroom stem after being picked.

"Red Agaricus (Agaricus): This spotted mushroom occasionally appears in caves and contains a deadly toxin."

"High-quality red mushrooms. I wonder if throwing them into Baile's soup would knock the governor over."

Playing with the red mushroom in his hand, Leon guessed it was probably of Silver or Gold Star quality. Without much reference, Leon wasn't sure, but it was definitely higher quality than the mushrooms grown in the mushroom culture tanks in the cave. Mushrooms grown in mushroom culture tanks were generally of the most ordinary quality, and it was impossible for them to produce high-quality mushrooms.

After putting it into his backpack, Lyon continued to move forward. He was not in a hurry to find the stairwell leading to the next floor. The important thing was to pick all the mushrooms first.

"Purple Mushroom (Mushroom): A rare mushroom that grows deep in caves. It has very powerful vitality and healing properties."

Compared to the toxicity of red mushrooms, purple mushrooms are at the other extreme. This type of mushroom has a dark purple cap and large light purple spots. Its cap is large and oval, covering half of the stem. It feels heavy in the hand, and you can smell a unique smell of fungi. To be more specific, it can be described as a sweet smell.

The size is also larger than those picked in the cave, so they should be of high quality.

After putting it in his pocket without hesitation, Leon continued to move forward and picked all the mushrooms on the reddish-brown soil of the mine. The long-awaited system prompt finally came.

Long periods of wild collecting give you new insights into how to collect wild plants, and your wild collecting level rises by one level.

You already have some experience and insights into wild collection. If you want to go further, you need to decide to focus on a career direction. Please choose your career.

Forester: You can now get more wood from felled trees, and they are guaranteed to drop tree species.

Collector: When picking, there is a chance to get double the picked items with the blessing of nature.

"hiss!"

If it were a game, Leon would definitely choose the collector without hesitation. After all, this probability of double picking effect can be applied to all wild plants, including berries. It is a perfect choice for making money and replenishing stamina. After all, doubling the income, even if it is probabilistic, is a qualitative level of enhancement.

However, what is different from the game is that the ranger profession has been enhanced. The original effect was to increase the amount of wood dropped by 25%, which was icing on the cake, but now there is an additional enhancement for the tree species that will definitely drop, which is different.

The drop rate of tree species is not 100%, it is a probability acquisition, and the probability is not high. It is considered lucky if one tree drops from five or six trees.

If it weren't for Linus' gift, it would probably not be easy for Leon to create an oak forest for the farm on his own. However, if he chose to be a forester, then if he wanted to plant trees on the farm in the future, he only needed to find a target tree outside to cut down, and he would be able to get a stable supply of tree seeds.

In the current situation, Lyon wants both and does not want to give up either. It is a matter of choosing between two happiness options.

But in the end, Leon chose the wild collecting profession of collector.

Because I compared the secondary advancement of the two professions after level ten, all the collections brought by the extended profession of the Collector profession - the Botanist will directly evolve into iridium quality, which is really a bug.

Until now, Leon has never seen anything of Iridium quality. The difference from the game is that the Iridium in the game only increases in price and the benefits obtained after consumption, but the effect of Iridium in reality may be the top-level taste enjoyment and powerful vitality enhancement.

In terms of value, the gatherers are definitely more powerful.
