Terraria: Cruel World Legends

……

After a period of mining, all the visible Hanyuan ore in the entire ice and snow cave was collected by Xi Yao... The number of about 600 pieces was enough for the two of them for the time being.

Similarly, during Xiyao's mining process, Prism's hands were also "stained" with a lot of enemy blood. After one trip, the entire cave was filled with "glacial essence"...

Of course, in addition to materials, some special enemies also drop other things: for example, a tortoise that lives in snowy caves, a tortoise shell with icy energy that falls intact from it is a universal accessory.

Its function is to release a circle of frost barrier when the wearer's own condition is less than 50% of the normal state. The barrier can weaken the power of most attacks by 25%... There is no doubt that the best profession to wear this accessory is the warrior.

...Xi Yao held the Frost Turtle Shell in one hand, and learned this after quickly consulting the Book of Terra...Afterwards, he threw the Glacial Essence and other miscellaneous dropped items into the Void Storage Space, and then took out two bottles of Teleportation Potions...

It was at this time that Xi Yao remembered something...that is...there seemed to be a person in the void storage space?

Uh, no, it seems, there was originally one person there... the guy who called himself the Ranger of Elias, a tactical shooter...

Is he still alive? Could it be... This was the first thing Xi Yao thought of... After quickly shaking his head to dispel the thought, he threw another bottle of teleportation potion to Prism.

"It's time to go back and get the Hanyuan Mine. We can move on to the next stage."

……

It was already 6:51 p.m. when he returned to the surface. Xi Yao stood in the center of the entire continent, watching the red streak cast by the setting sun connecting to the ground in a straight line, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"The return of Hanyuan Mine... this can be considered to change the world..." Xi Yao muttered to himself, and then he flew into the air at the same time as Prism and rushed back to Dongfang Town.

Come to think of it... Xi Yao originally planned to build the venue today and then fight the Polar Spirit... But now... the next step of the plan has been completed ahead of time... Actually, this is a good thing, as it gives them some time to rest. Xi Yao thought so.

...Soon...the two returned to Dongfang Town. After parting with Prism, Xi Yao came to the town, looking for the Great Ice Mage Yongdong...After all, the person in the void storage space still had to rely on him to save.

……

After searching for a while, Xi Yao saw Yongdong on a bench in the square. At this moment, Yongdong was sitting with the wizard Melor, and they seemed to be communicating something in a relaxed and happy manner.

After seeing Xi Yao not far away, Yongdong realized that it was time to end his communication with the wizard next to him. After saying goodbye to Melor, he walked towards Xi Yao with steady steps.

"Child, please allow me to say something else. The wizard named Melor is knowledgeable and powerful. I must praise him because he is a very respectable wizard." After walking in front of Xi Yao, Yongdong spoke first, then turned back slightly to look at the wizard Melor who had already left.

Xi Yao nodded in agreement, and then explained the reason why he came to see him:

"I have a person who is completely frozen for eternity... Can you still unfreeze him?"

Hearing this, Yongdong frowned in embarrassment: "You still want to save her when she's completely frozen? Why didn't you say so earlier? Did the little girl hide it from herself?"

"Huh?" Xiyao asked in confusion, but soon understood what Yongdong meant... It seemed that Yongdong misunderstood the person Xiyao was talking about as Prism who was also present at the time...

...After explaining, Yongdong still frowned: "What about others... Then, do you know how long he will be frozen?"

After receiving Xi Yao's negative answer, Yong Dong sighed and said, "Child, you should arrange his funeral as soon as possible... If you can find his relatives, it would be good to give the body to them."

"Can't be saved?" Xi Yao said, feeling a little sorry and sympathetic for Elias.

"It's possible to save him... but he may not be able to survive... After all, if it's a normal person, within five minutes of being frozen, all the blood vessels, organs, and even cells in the body will be completely frozen to death. It would be a miracle for Terra to survive..."

"If there's a chance, let's give it a try." Xi Yao said, looking around at the crowd.

"Here or somewhere else?"

"Let's go to another place. If you're not careful when absorbing the extremely cold air, it will quickly dissipate in all directions. Don't get innocent people involved."

……

Night falls...

Inastan Royal Palace, Yaojin Lingxi Palace——

In the deserted palace, King Charles sat alone on the throne, with one hand on his forehead. His expression was full of fatigue and sadness. There seemed to be a few tears in the corners of his eyes, reflecting the moonlight shining from the palace door.

The moon phase is very good today, it is a full moon, and it just happens to be in a straight line with Yao Jin Lingxi's door and the throne... Charles just sat on the throne, silently looking at the bright moon in the sky.

...At this time, a pink-haired girl wearing a pink princess dress and a silver crown that symbolized her status, and with a particularly cute appearance, slowly walked in from the palace gate. The white moonlight shone on her, and her shadow became longer and longer.

The girl slowly walked up the holy steps and finally stopped in front of the throne. She knelt slightly in salute, then stood still again with her head lowered.

"Father, my mother asked me to accompany you. She will come over later."

Charles didn't look at the girl, but suddenly murmured to himself: "...three years..."

Then he gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his Buddha's hand, stood up and let out a long sigh.

"My daughter, Leah, do you think... I am a qualified person?" Charles looked at the sky outside the palace and asked the girl calmly, then reached out and took off the golden crown on his head.

This golden crown is forged from the holy gold ingot and has been passed down in the Inastan royal family since it was forged centuries ago.

Previously, when the Inastan royal family was just a noble family, the golden crown symbolized the patriarch of the entire family...but now, the royal family has become a true royal family, and the golden crown has become a symbol of the head of a country.

"...Father, you are undoubtedly the best father to me. You treat me like the apple of your eye...

As for the country, you are an outstanding leader. As soon as you came to power a year ago, you began planning the overthrow of the cabinet and the big cleanup... In the end, you led our country to the light.

And to our family, you are also…” Remlia, the second princess of the Inastan royal family, was suddenly interrupted by Charles.

"Stop, Leah, let me ask you, do you still remember your brother's name..."

Remlia was stunned at first, but soon nodded: "Liya will not forget... my brother's name is Chalainar..."

"Yes... Charlenar... your brother... To him, I am not a qualified father... but a cold-blooded and ruthless man..." Charles said, stretching out his hand and gently stroking the sky, as if trying to grab something.

"In his eyes, I did that because of an irreversible trait in him...but he will never know the real reason why I did that...so, to him...I might not even be considered a human being..." Charles looked at the sky and smiled miserably.

Remlia seemed to want to say something, but she didn't speak... She remained silent with her head down... Soon, she caught a glimpse of a beautiful young woman in a gorgeous dress hurriedly walking in from outside the palace.

Remlia said to Charles: "Father, the Queen Mother is here."

Charles nodded slightly, sighed deeply, and quickly adjusted his facial expression. Soon, the previous sadness was replaced by his previous majesty.

"Charlainal's birthday... Let's celebrate it for him again." Charles muttered to himself again when the queen came to him.

On the side, Princess Remlia and Queen Leticia who had rushed over knew that this was the third time that someone had celebrated someone else's birthday since three years ago.
