Terraria: Cruel World Legends

Xi Yao shook his head slightly, then took out his pocket watch and took a look: 7:28 p.m.

"Let's take care of dinner later. Now..." Xi Yao muttered to himself, then opened the void storage space and took out the treasure bag and legendary object of the Polar Realm.

……

[He is still alive...?

I thought Calamitous had killed him because of the conflict between ice and fire... It seems that she was unable to kill him in the end, giving the ice creature the opportunity to imprison him and use it to strengthen itself...

...That cold creature was just one of his old components, causing chaos without the supervision of its owner.

Yongdong is an old ally of mine, a famous ice wizard, highly respected... He guided me in my early campaigns and made a large part of my war goals a reality.

But as the crusade continued, my ambitions grew, and he expressed strong opposition.

To him, what was once considered justice is now only tyranny... Finally, as the Asaful incident spread, he could no longer bear it and left me, and the witch followed him. 】

After listening to the legendary object and obtaining new information, Xi Yao put it back into the void storage space, and then picked up the Polar Spirit treasure bag beside him.

After it opened with a ripping sound, Xi Yao turned it upside down. The items inside, which were transformed from essence, fell to the ground due to gravity. Xi Yao took a look and found that there were quite a lot of things, including four weapons, three accessories, and some glacial essence.

The only tactical profession that the four weapons are compatible with is not the summoner, and the functions of the three accessories are still unknown... It is obviously impossible to know their uses now, so we can only wait until tomorrow to try it out.

Afterwards, Xi Yao stored all the spoils of the Arctic Cold into the void storage space. After closing the space, Xi Yao was about to go and prepare dinner... But, just as he walked to the door...

Suddenly! Elias on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, and suddenly stood up, gasping for breath, as if he had experienced the aftereffects of a brink of life and death.

Soon, he realized that the place he was in seemed to be quite different from the polar regions in his imagination... Such a simple bedroom, with just the right room temperature... It could be said that it was a world of difference from the polar regions.

"Are you awake?" Xi Yao spoke first.

“…This…where is this place?” Elias seemed a little frightened. He was still breathing heavily, his chest heaving…but he looked very good, perhaps because of the Golden Source Soul?

"My home." Xiyao answered him.

"...Where is your home?" Elias said, trying his best to calm himself down.

"Eastern Town."

Hearing this, Elias frowned: "...Wait, could it be that...I...I am not dead?"

"Of course you are not dead. After all, I am still alive and well. It is impossible for a person in the world of the living to meet a person in the underworld, right?" Xi Yao shrugged.

"...Uh..." Elias gritted his teeth and climbed down from the bed with all his strength. Suddenly, he felt weak all over and fell to the ground.

"You must be very weak now, so take a rest first. Don't worry, I have no hostility, and we have met before." Xi Yao said, walking over to help Elias up.

Elias looked at Xi Yao cautiously: "...Have we met before?"

"Remember the Destroyer?"

Hearing this, Elias raised his eyebrows as if he remembered something, then paused and said: "Oh, of course... I don't remember."

Xiyao: “?”

Elias suddenly laughed: "Haha, okay, it's just a joke, of course I remember... After all, I got the 10 platinum coins thanks to you..."

"... Let me tell you what happened briefly: Two hours ago, I found you in the polar region, transformed into an ice sculpture, and brought you back here. Not long after I rescued you, you woke up."

"...I was frozen in ice and could actually be rescued. Could it be because... By the way, have you encountered the Polar Spirit? That group of people and I suffered because of it." Elias suddenly paused in the middle of his words and changed the subject. I don't know what he was hiding.

"...Okay, let's not talk about this for now. You must be very weak now. Why don't you rest here for a while?" Xi Yao did not intend to tell Elias about his achievement of destroying the Polar Spirit, so he changed the subject.

Hearing this, Elias raised his arm and found that it was shaking uncontrollably... It seemed that he was indeed very weak... But he still had to leave.

"...Anyway, thank you for saving me...but...I have to go."

"You are very weak now, where are you going?"

"Oh, go drink in Miriast."

“Drink...drink...?” Xi Yao didn’t expect this to be the reason.

Elias laughed softly and said, "Haha, of course, today is a special day. My friend, a bartender, will mix a kind of wine that you can't drink normally. You can't miss it."

After saying that, Elias seemed to have thought of something and continued, "By the way, if you are willing, how about going to Miriast with me? I will treat you to a drink."

"...Drinking? You want me to be your bodyguard and escort you to that place, right?"

"What? What is that?" As he said that, Elias took out several bottles of teleportation potions from his storage bag.

"This is a teleportation potion that teleports to the critical point between the western and central regions of Terra. Milyaster City is only three or four minutes away from there, so I didn't intend to use you as a bodyguard at all...

Besides, I'm a shooter, so I only need to attack from a distance. I won't be too weak to pull the trigger." Elias said.

"…So, you really want to repay me? By treating me to a drink?"

"Really, more real than rare treasures... In addition, in the eyes of the Milyaster people, only those who have done them a great favor will treat them. Usually, when they dine together, they pay for everything... Of course, I'm not from Milyaster, but I'm used to this custom."

...In this case...going for a drink won't take too much time...but being exposed to alcohol is not a good thing...but it's not easy to refuse this guy...and...I'm not sure if he has good intentions...Xi Yao thought so.

As if seeing through Xi Yao's concerns, Elias took off his Daedalus helmet and said, "Half-armor gift, is this enough to express my goodwill?"

Seeing this, Xiyao truly believed in Elias's kindness towards him. You know, he was wearing a full set of titanium battle armor, and Elias dared to perform the half-armor salute directly. If he was not stupid, he was kind. Xiyao also believed that it was the latter.

"So, aren't you afraid that I may be hostile?" Xi Yao asked tentatively.

"If you had hostile intentions, you should have killed me when I was frozen, or at least during the time when I was just released, but you didn't."

Xi Yao did not respond, and then looked at Elias's face with interest: long, fluffy middle-parted blonde hair; sharp eyebrows and blue eyes; slightly fair skin; thin lips that were smiling gently... Elias's femininity could be said to be just right.

"Okay, I'll not let you down. It doesn't look like it will take too much time..." Xi Yao said, and just as he was about to take the teleportation potion, he suddenly thought of something.

"Mind if I send someone else?"

"Of course I don't mind."

"Okay, come with me." Xi Yao said, then opened the door and walked out of the bedroom, then walked out of the house with Elias and came outdoors.

...Then, Elias saw the simple yet prosperous night scene of Dongfang Town, and murmured to himself in slight surprise: "Is this Dongfang Town... It really has a unique flavor."

"Yes." Xi Yao said calmly and gently, then he raised his titanium mask and looked around Dongfang Town.

"By the way...you haven't even told me your name yet?" Elias asked, spreading one hand.

"Oh, yes, my last name is Xi and my given name is Yao, that is, Xiyao." After saying that, Xiyao retracted his gaze, turned around and walked towards the street.

"Ha, I guessed right. You are indeed the leader of Dongfang Town... and also the most dazzling new star on the Terra continent... So, who are you going to look for?" Elias walked side by side with Xi Yao.

"Oh, one of my friends, I thought of asking her to go with me so that I can keep her as a caregiver."

"Oh... uh, are you still wary of me after all?"

"No, but I can't help it if you want to understand it that way."

……

Not long after, Xiyao and Elias arrived near Prism's house... At this moment, she was wearing a casual outfit of a white shirt and black trousers, and was watching the moon on the balcony with Bilan.

"Wait here for a moment." Xi Yao said, and then he flew up and briefly told Prism the reason why he was going to look for her.

……

"You mean... he's the guy who came to support us in the previous battle against the Destroyer... and today in the polar region, you saved him from turning into an ice sculpture... so... he treated us to a drink... a drink?"

Prism said with some confusion, then turned his head to look at Elias who was looking at them with a chuckle below.

"Yes, and this guy is sincere, so he can't be refused, and it won't take too much time. Of course, you can choose to stay here, I just want to take care of you."

...It's quite boring now, there's nothing to lose by going... Prism thought, and nodded slightly to accept the invitation.

After settling Bi Lan, Prism turned and walked into the house, while Xi Yao jumped off the balcony and looked at Elias for a moment.

Elias laughed softly and said, "Oh, I thought it was some kind of companion, but it turned out to be a girl... What is your relationship?"

Facing Elias's gossip, Xi Yao said calmly: "Partnership, it's that simple."

……

Soon, Prism, the door opened, and she walked out of the house... At this time, she was wearing a full set of Titan's Heart armor, holding the Shadow Grave Raider in her hand, and holding it behind her.

Prism raised his mask, first glanced at Elias, then looked at Xi Yao, and explained: "This makes me feel safe."

"...This weapon...I've never seen it before..." Elias muttered to himself while pinching his jaw... Suddenly he reacted and stroked his forehead:

"Wait...you...are you trying to create panic among Miriast..."

"No."

"...but...please put away your weapons when you get there. You can take them with you on the road." Elias shrugged and threw two bottles of teleportation potions that could teleport to the west to the two of them.

"See you in a second then."

Elias said humorously, then drank the teleportation potion in his hand and left. Xiyao first checked the seal and label of the teleportation potion, and drank it with Prism after making sure it was correct.
