A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 954 Apophis
With Leon's assurance, Abigail finally stopped worrying. She pulled Sophia, who was hesitant to speak and looked worried, and patted her hand to comfort her: "This guy is very smart. Since he is not afraid, it proves that he is confident, so don't worry about him."

Looking at Abigail, whose expression had returned to calm, Sophia glanced again in the direction of the forest wall where she had already entered and could no longer see Leon's back, and chose to believe Abigail's words.

Abigail also noticed that Sofia's mood had calmed down a lot, so she said to Yuzu who had already landed, "Yuzu, take us to find your friends."

"Chi chi chi chi chi!"

Without Leon's translation, the two girls present could not understand what Yuzu said, but judging from Yuzu's expression, she still understood what Abigail meant.

So the two of them and the Junimo started walking in another direction, while Leon, who had already left the team, had taken out the Galaxy Watermelon Knife and transformed it into a giant sword of the same height, carrying it on his shoulder, and came to Brother Xiong's side.

"Why are you back?" Brother Xiong looked at Leon, who looked like he was ready to kill someone at any time, and complained helplessly: "Didn't you leave?"

"Yeah, I sent the others away first. I came back once they were safe." Leon smiled and patted Brother Bear's forelimbs. It's amazing that Brother Bear's fur, which should have been soft in a combat-ready state, felt like a piece of steel when patted, hard.

"Okay, but I hope you do it within your ability, Leon. Although you are already an excellent fighter, you are still a little far from being able to deal with guys from the desert who can cross several lines of defense. So I hope you make protecting yourself your main goal." Brother Xiong felt Leon's determination and stopped persuading him. He just gave him a reminder.

"Can you tell me the origin of that thing that came all the way to Stardew Valley to cause trouble?" Leon asked.

"The corrupted king of flying snakes, a terrifying monster known to border people as Apophis, can fly and spit highly corrosive venom. Its carapace is also incredibly tough, making it a formidable opponent. Let me handle the frontal assault while you attack from the side. There's a section of its carapace beneath its abdomen that's ruptured, and that's its most obvious weak spot."

Of course, Brother Xiong knew what Lyon meant and immediately shared the information with Lyon.

"The King of Corrupted Flying Serpents, what a big name, it's scary!" Upon hearing this name, Leon couldn't help but tighten his grip on the hilt of the knife and sighed.

This is definitely a big boss, far more powerful than any monster he has ever seen. If this wasn't Stardew Valley, if Brother Xiong wasn't by his side, the first thing Leon would have done after learning this information would have been to retreat and call for help.

But Brother Xiong was already in the front, and Leon felt embarrassed to run, nor did he want to run. After all, this guy named Apophis came here for Stardew Valley, and he is now a Stardew Valley native.

"Actually, it's not that scary. After all, this is not a desert. The barrier of Stardew Valley is very strong. Even if Apophis breaks through, he will still be weakened under the dual pressure of the power of nature and the barrier. Don't worry, I'm here." Brother Xiong comforted Leon.

"I was just talking nonsense. I'm not really scared. But there is something I'm curious about. Brother Xiong, how did you know it was heading towards Stardew Valley? After all, you seem to have been on guard here since we met. Is this some kind of danger perception by a powerful person?" Leon smiled and explained that what he just said was a joke. At the same time, he was curious about how Brother Xiong knew that the one named Apophis was coming.

"The crow informed me. After all, it crossed several lines of defense and it would be hard not to be discovered." Brother Bear explained.

"." Lyon fell silent for a moment after hearing this, and he admitted that he had overthought it.

But he wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, he joked to Brother Xiong, "What if we can't hold it? Who will we notify?" "We can hold it," Brother Xiong answered honestly, "This isn't the first time I've fought it, but it's never once broken through the line of defense I'm responsible for."

"Hahaha, Brother Xiong is awesome. Then I will follow you to share the honor of guarding Stardew Valley." Leon laughed and gave Brother Xiong a thumbs up. Then he took out ten amethysts that he had prepared in advance but had not used yet from his backpack and shaped them into gem puppets.

As the amethyst shattered, the amethyst powder that fell into the soil merged with the rising soil, forming a slender and tall puppet. The moment it appeared, it approached Leon and took a protective posture.

"Your Star Fruit ability is pretty cool." Brother Xiong chatted when he saw the amethyst puppet.

"It looks good, but I don't know if it can withstand it." Leon shrugged and sighed. After all, he was not sure how strong this gem puppet that consumed ten purple crystals was.

"It should be fine." Brother Xiong encouraged him, "I think it's pretty powerful. You have to trust my intuition."

"Well, when will that big bug arrive?" Leon nodded, then looked towards the western sky, looking forward to the appearance of the aggressive flying snake king.

"It's almost there." Just as Brother Xiong finished speaking, Leon saw a dark shadow appear in the distant sky.

"Fuck, it's so big!"

As the black shadow in his eyes got closer, Leon finally saw its complete appearance and immediately cursed.

This is a thick and long flat-bodied crustacean monster, which has many similarities in shape to a centipede, except that its head is triangular and has two clusters of tentacles extending to both sides. Its big mouth covered with densely packed sharp teeth swallows and spits out dark purple mist, and the scarlet eyes on the top of its head are like two blood-red searchlights.

The pure black shell has no luster at all in the sunlight. Instead, the shadow shrouding its huge body devours the light around it, and the space around it is infected like a collapsed void.

Although it has no legs, the six slender tentacles extending from the gaps in the shell are covered with dense and hideous spikes.

These peculiarities, coupled with its enormous size, which was estimated to be more than twenty meters long and more than two meters wide, brought a sense of oppression that made Lyon's scalp tingle.

"Get ready, I'll take on the front." Brother Xiong reminded Leon again, then roared and marched towards Apophis on all fours.

Apophis in the sky also noticed Brother Bear's roar, and swooped down without hesitation, opened its terrifying mouth, and bit towards Brother Bear's head.
