A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 766 So that’s it
"So fast?" Linus obviously didn't expect that Leon could make a mushroom stump in the blink of an eye.

"My own secret recipe." Lyon smiled mysteriously, his cheerful expression making him look really annoying.

"Tsk, it's the blessing of the God of Forge. Your grandfather can do this too. It seems like he has passed on this special ability of blessing to you a long time ago." Linus looked at Leon's smug look, rolled his eyes speechlessly and complained.

"Uh" Although Linus seemed to have misunderstood something, Linus' understanding and explanation gave Leon new information.

That is, grandpa seems to have the ability to quickly make the formulas he has mastered. Does grandpa actually have a system?
With doubt, Leon asked: "Are you sure?"

"Of course, I have the blessing of the gods too," Linus replied with a smile.

"I also possess Mother Nature's blessings, but they are not forest magic, but rather several blessings specifically bestowed upon wild plants. After I collect all the wild plants growing in the forest, there is a chance I'll obtain an extra portion, and all the wild plants I personally collect are of the highest quality.

According to the register that reviewers use to measure quality, it's called Iridium Star quality. You might not have heard of it, but it's a higher grade than the Gold Star quality of high-quality crops. Reviewers use the rarity and strength of the four metals copper, iron, gold, and iridium as a proxy."

Lyon knew about this statement, but he didn't learn it from the same channel as Linus. Instead, it was reflected in the game. Although it was different from what Linus said, it was understandable.

Bronze Star is probably the most common quality. Iron Star should correspond to Silver Star, as the color of iron ingots is silver-gray. Venus is Venus, not to mention Iridium.

Moreover, the blessing from Linus looked very familiar to Leon. Isn't this the characteristic of the collector's profession after the wild gathering skill is upgraded and the characteristic of the botanist's profession after advancement?

It turns out that it is a profession on the system's side, but in the eyes of others, it is the blessing of God.

This also made Leon have a new question: "Do the gods of this world like to bless ordinary people?"

"Well, after all, these gods were born to make this world a better place. When faced with beings who have contributed to the world and have reached a higher level in a certain field, the gods will not be stingy with their appreciation and rewards. This is also Yuba's will."

Linus nodded. "And most importantly, aside from the original gods who awakened after Yuba's creation, such as Mother Nature and the Ocean Spirit, gods like the God of Forge, the God of War, and the God of Death were all promoted by the first humans who accepted Yuba's guidance and received some of Yuba's authority. Therefore, they have a special preference for the human race."

"What about these gods?" Leon asked.

"Mother Nature and the Ocean Spirit stayed in this world because they were born from land and sea and have no physical form. The other gods basically followed Yuba out of this world, but they also left some of their authority in the world to continue to maintain the stability of this world." Linus explained patiently.

"Is that so?" Lyon couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. It seemed that this world was much more exciting than he had imagined.

"So the blessing of the gods is not a rare ability. Even if your grandfather didn't pass it on to you, you can actually get the blessing of the god of forging directly when you have made achievements in the field of craftsmanship, including in the field of mining. High-level workers in various fields more or less possess one or even several blessings." Linus added, as if he was worried that Leon would become arrogant because he knew that his ability to make artisan products in seconds came from the blessing of the gods and that he was unique.

"I see." Leon nodded. He now has mastered the professional characteristics of five basic skills, or it can be said that it is the blessing of the gods. He still agrees with this.

Originally, he thought that all this came from the game settings and the replication of the system. Now it seems that it is the rule of the world. No wonder when he upgraded before, he always saw descriptions of some gods in the system prompts. It turns out that it is not a description, but a realistic description.

After learning about this special information, Leon felt that there might be a lot more to explore in his system.

Linus was speechless as he saw that Leon's expression was unexpectedly calm and his eyes were clear.

Lyon was not as arrogant as he had worried, and he didn't even show any excitement or surprise. He was just surprised at first but then he regained his composure. His calm attitude was not like that of a young man at all.

"Okay, enough small talk. This mushroom stump is yours. Take it back and place it in your oak forest. Wait patiently, and you'll get more mushrooms. Now you can continue doing your business."

Feeling quite depressed, Linus waved his hand and wanted to send the guest away.

"Don't be anxious, old man. Let's talk more." Leon didn't want to leave. After all, he gained something new every time he chatted with Linus. He felt that the old man was like a library that recorded secrets.

"I don't want to talk anymore. I'm going to take a bath. Do you want to join me?" Linus rolled his eyes and asked back.

Then, as if worried that Leon really agreed, he added: "Bath with your bare butt."

"Then go ahead. I won't bother you. I'll come play with you next time." Lyon shook his head when he heard that. It wasn't that he was afraid to be honest with Reinus, but he simply had no interest in taking a bath. Although it was raining and the temperature dropped, it was not so cold that people would shiver. Taking a hot spring bath now was no different from taking a sauna. Lyon didn't want to get a heatstroke.

Linus was able to say goodbye to Lyon as he wished, and he immediately smiled happily. With his hands behind his back, he walked briskly towards the valley where the railway was.

Lyon walked in the opposite direction down the hillside, preparing to walk along the mine lake to collect more moss and visit Marlon and Jill.

After all, Lyon is a member of the Explorers Guild. If he doesn't show up for a long time, Lyon is worried that one day Malone will push him to become the president of the Stardew Valley branch of the Explorers Guild, and something he doesn't even know about will happen.

It's not that Lyon is wishful thinking, but this possibility is very high. Malone had expressed this idea in front of Lyon a long time ago. Obviously, he doesn't want to retire in the quiet place of Stardew Valley. He also wants to go back to the more dangerous, competitive and opportunity-rich Elemental City to continue making big money.
