Just the Dungeon's output alone can attract a large number of Adventurers.
This is a buff item!
It's ranked fourth on the list of rewards Adventurers most want to acquire!
First is skills, second is equipment, third is potions, and fourth is buff items.
Food with special effects can all be considered buff items.
"No, I have to grab a few!"
The Black Iron Sword Saint had no time to think; while he was pondering, the buff items on the shelves were almost swept clean by other Adventurers.
"Damn it, leave some for me!"
Like customers scrambling for discounted goods at a supermarket sale, a bunch of Adventurers were jostling fiercely to buy things.
But none of them dared to make a move.
Any physical action would instantly get them kicked out.
Who would want to be kicked out after finally squeezing in?
Moments later, the Black Iron Sword Saint left the sales room, looking disheveled.
"Holy crap, this is even more exhausting than fighting Dark Tide creatures."
Looking at the three carrots he managed to snatch, he felt like crying but had no tears.
It was the first time he felt heartache for not spending money.
Let's check the crystal in the teleportation room.
In the teleportation room, there was a huge crystal through which Adventurers' experiences in the Dungeon could be viewed in real-time.
This item was also invented by Lords, and subsequent Lords also equipped their Dungeons with it.
The purpose was also for Dungeon promotion, to showcase the charm of their Dungeons to Adventurers.
But most of the time, it was more discouraging than anything...
"Haha, what an idiot, this guy used the shipping box as a regular box..."
"When he wakes up tomorrow and finds out the wood he painstakingly chopped has been sold by himself, will he cry, hahaha..."
...
The Adventurers in the queue laughed as they watched the crystal above their heads; the bizarre actions of the Adventurers already experiencing the Stardew Valley filled them with boundless joy.
Compared to watching other Adventurers die tragically in other Dungeons, seeing them make idiotic moves was far more entertaining.
After all, if other Adventurers died tragically inside, they would only seriously observe how they died and how to cope when they entered next; they wouldn't have the leisure to mock others.
It's different now; they all know that no one dies in the Stardew Valley, so they feel relaxed from the bottom of their hearts.
They can laugh freely and without reservation.
"This idiot didn't check his stamina again, he fainted halfway through watering!"
"Then he's done for; he'll have to water again tomorrow and then go to sleep, a day wasted."
"Quick! Quick! It's my turn to go in and play!"
"Get lost, it's clearly my turn!"
"We're all buddies, isn't it better to go in together?"
"True..."
"This isn't right, is it? Last time we went in together, I kept losing vegetables. Do you know what happened?"
"Uh... maybe... they were eaten by crows."
"Yes, crows, sometimes a type of bird called a crow will fly over, and they'll steal vegetables!"
"Really? It wasn't you guys who stole them?"
"Absolutely true! I'll stake my brother's reputation on it!"
The Adventurers bickered and crowded together in the teleportation room, chatting and laughing, but not forgetting to contend fiercely for their spot to enter the Stardew Valley Dungeon.
And so it went.
As waves of Adventurers finished their satisfying experience in the Stardew Valley, even if they no longer had a chance to experience it, they still stood in the teleportation room, watching others experience it inside.
The beautiful farmland scenery of the Stardew Valley had deeply captured their hearts.
They only regretted that this Dungeon had just emerged and could accommodate too few Adventurers.
From day to night, the front of the 23rd Dungeon was never idle; some Adventurers even slept directly in the teleportation room.
Waiting to enter the Stardew Valley at the first opportunity the next day.
However, there were simply too many Adventurers with this idea, turning the teleportation room into a small hotel; a teleportation room that could only accommodate five or six people was crammed with over a dozen.
It was simply exaggerated.
The Stardew Valley craze had only just begun.
At this moment, deep within the territory of the 23rd Dungeon, Lü Xuan awoke in the Lord's castle.
"Comfortable!"
After sleeping for a while, he felt refreshed and his mental energy was full.
He had slept for about a day.
The moment he woke up, he opened his Lord's card.
[Lord's Card] (An item displaying the Lord's power, acquired after becoming a Lord).
[Holder: Lü Xuan]
[Race: Human]
[Lord Level: Black Iron Mid-tier (Upper, Mid, Lower)]
[Title: Novice Lord]
[Mental Energy: 500/500]
[soul crystal: 5076]
[Emotion Crystal: 2418]
[Current Dungeons: 2 (Star Dew Valley · Initial Version, Stardew Valley No. 02)]
[Territory Area: 700/3000 square meters]
"My level has finally increased!"
During his sleep, he absorbed about 2000 Emotion Crystals, finally pushing his mental energy to a new level, reaching Black Iron Mid-tier.
He gained a level just by sleeping.
It felt great!
It was also thanks to having plenty of Emotion Crystals in hand, allowing him to absorb them continuously until he couldn't absorb any more.
Even so, he still had many Emotion Crystals left.
If he absorbed all of them, he might even be able to directly advance to the Bronze rank.
However, absorption and conversion also require a transitional process; having just absorbed 2000 Emotion Crystals, he had already reached his body's limit.
Next, he needed to stabilize his newly enhanced mental energy, otherwise, forcibly absorbing more might cause mental disorder and lead to a berserk state.
That would be very serious.
"5076!?" Noticing yesterday's income, he opened his eyes wide in surprise.
How did he earn so much?
He then checked the income breakdown.
Of it, 576 soul crystals were Dungeon entry fees, and 3568 were earned from selling crops?
Sold out in one day?
Lü Xuan could hardly believe it.
He immediately checked the Dungeon's general store and was astonished to find the shelves completely empty.
Not even a single vegetable leaf was left.
"No, have Adventurers never seen buff fruits? Or did I price them too low?"
He had checked the prices when setting them; Bronze-grade buff fruits could not exceed 10 soul crystals.
His crops were at most Bronze lower-tier, and at lowest Black Iron lower-tier, so a price range of 1-5 soul crystals was perfectly normal.
It was quite unexpected that they sold so well.
Perhaps his crops were truly rare items in the Adventurer's world.
He could only guess as much.
After all, he couldn't know for sure what differences existed between the Adventurer's world and that of them Lords.
The only way to understand the Adventurer's world was through a newspaper circulated among their Lords.
It was equivalent to a newspaper in his previous life.
It could be bought in Lord Central City.
People would record events from the Adventurer's world in it, making it easier for Lords to understand Adventurer activities.
[Ding!]
[Ding!]
Before he could figure it out, the message notification sounds in his ear began to ring continuously.
Dozens of messages bombarded his eyes like crazy.
