A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 106 The scene is too beautiful to be seen

Since it was confirmed that the item could be obtained without direct contact, Leon immediately returned to the location where the stink bug was originally killed. He used an extended machete to pick up the ball of insect meat that had been lying on the ground for a while and put it into the system backpack.

Then Lyon continued to wander in this floor. Fortunately, he did not encounter any more bedbug attacks after going around in a circle, and the stench in the cave was also obviously weakened. It seemed that the bedbugs on this floor seemed to have been cleaned up by himself.

While breathing a sigh of relief, Lyon took out the pickaxe again, knocked the copper-containing stone first, and then began to knock the ordinary stone. What made Lyon happy was that in the process of knocking the ordinary stone, in addition to the stone, he actually knocked out a crystal ball.

"Crystal Ball: A crystal containing various minerals that requires specific tools to open."

This thing is a little smaller than the Universal Crystal Ball, but it is also the size of a bowl and oval in shape. The shell is very smooth and looks like a shrunken football.

After putting it in his backpack, Lyon continued to knock on the stones. When Lyon had knocked off all the stones on the rock layer except for this layer of sand, he still did not see the stairwell leading to the fourth underground floor. He could only focus his attention on the small rock layer and the three lonely stones in the center of this large layer of sand.

Lyon didn't believe at all that there was nothing in such a large area of ​​sand.

Leon took back the pickaxe and took out the Galaxy Watermelon Knife. Looking at the sand in the cave, he finally stepped into it.

The texture of the sand is very soft, and it feels like stepping on sand. Every step leaves a footprint, and the feedback from the soles of the feet is quite comfortable.

After walking a short distance, Leon, who had been staring at the sand, noticed some changes. There was a rustling sound from the ground, and at the same time, a raised mound was arched out of the originally flat sand, extending straight towards him.

Interestingly, after noticing this change, Lyon subconsciously stopped moving forward and raised his machete to prepare for battle.

Then Lyon noticed that the mound extending towards him also stopped and did not continue to move. Lyon took a tentative step forward and the mound moved again.

"Is it based on the propagation of sound or sensing the vibration of the ground to determine the traces of prey? Why does this thing feel so much like an alien?" Thinking about the attack habits of the unknown creatures hiding under the sand, Leon complained speechlessly.

Then Lyon extended the length of the Galaxy Watermelon Knife in his hand without hesitation, turning it into a giant blade of more than two meters. He then used the top of the blade to knock on the sand in front of him for an experiment.

Then Lyon saw the mound move again, heading straight for the place where Lyon was knocking. Finally, when it was only a few centimeters away from the knocking point, the mound was suddenly broken.

A dirt-gray earthworm-like creature with a relatively abstract face resembling facial features crawled out from it, but only half of its thick body was exposed.

After drilling out of the sand, this thing stood up directly on its upper body, and then used its body as a hammer to smash the place where Leon hit with the Galaxy Watermelon Knife.

"Hiss, so stupid, and he's blind."

Leon, who had already put away his knife, looked at the digging worm attacking the open space and felt reluctant to attack this disabled monster.

But listening to the muffled bangs coming from his ears, Lyon knew that it would not feel good to be hit by this thing, so Lyon finally chose a more humane way.

That is to turn the Galaxy Watermelon Knife over, with the back of the knife facing down and the blade facing up.

At the same time, Leon changed direction and continued to hit the sand with the back of the knife. The noise immediately attracted the digging worms that were still attacking the open space.

It quickly retracted into the ground, raised the earth mound again and rushed towards the place where Leon hit it, and then, as before, broke out of the ground at the position closest to the hitting point, using its body as a weapon to smash the upward blade.

The moment the earthworm's body hit the blade, it was evenly divided into two halves like tofu being cut, and it stopped moving.

Leon covered his face, unable to bear to look at this picturesque suicide scene.

The burrowing worm's corpse, like the other slain monsters, began to weather away, leaving only a single, diamond-shaped, earthy-yellow crystal as proof of its existence. "Earth crystal (mineral): A resinous substance found near the surface of the earth."

After picking up the crystal, Leon received an introduction to the system.

"Good stuff."

Lyon took it into his pocket. Earth crystals can be used in many places, such as sacrifice, manufacturing, gift-giving, construction, etc.

After dealing with the digging worm, Lyon continued to move forward on the sandy land. This time, he did not see any movement of the digging worm. Lyon walked easily to the rock layer in the middle of the sandy land.

He skillfully took out a pickaxe and started to hit the stones. The first two stones were broken directly with one hit of the pickaxe, but the third stone, which was a slightly round dark stone, took Leon five hits before it began to disintegrate.

This solid stone also brought Lyon an unexpected gain.

“Citrine (mineral): Very common, but still valuable because of its beauty.”

"It turns out to be a gem mine. No wonder it's so smooth." Recalling the appearance of the stone he had just struck, Lyon took note of this information.

As the last stone of this floor was cleared away, the stairwell that Leon had been looking forward to finally appeared.

However, Leon did not rush. Instead, he switched the pickaxe in his hand to a hoe, and then began to walk towards the large circle of sand outside the rock layer. He still had some things to confirm.

When the hoe fell, a small piece of land was turned over. Apart from slightly dry sand, nothing else was seen.

But Lyon was not discouraged and continued to use the special effects of the hoe to turn over the sand.

After turning over four pieces of sand in a row, Lyon finally got something.

"Clay (resource): used for crafting and construction."

"Sure enough, the sand and soil from the mine can also be shipped."

Lyon was also surprised to see that he had actually found something. After all, he was not sure whether the real mine was the same as the one in the game. Now, after some experiments, he concluded that he could indeed get some materials by turning over the soil. Lyon immediately sped up his movements.

Looking at a gray-brown thing with long roots that emerged from the soil, it has a similar shape to a radish, but is much fatter.

When Lyon picked it up, he immediately felt its weight. It felt rough, the surface was a bit abrasive, and it was hard to pinch. It didn't look like it had enough moisture.

Not to mention the distinct earthy smell that Leon could smell just by holding it in his hand.

"Cave Radish (collected): A starchy plant that grows in caves and is a great way to replenish the energy of the miners who discover it."

Looking at the system's introduction, Lyon was a little curious. After all, this thing was said to be a radish, but to Lyon it looked more like ginseng.

Although Lyon had not seen many freshly unearthed ginseng, the ginseng he had seen basically had one notable feature, which was that the roots on the main stem were very long, just like the cave radish in his hand.

"I don't know what effect it will have if I just chew it."
