Terraria: Cruel World Legends

……

...After returning to Dongfang Town, Prism went home by himself. Xiyao took Elias and Louis to visit Dongfang Town quickly, and introduced them to some of the main streets and buildings in Dongfang Town...

...When passing through the streets in the central area, a building called "Caesar's Tavern" attracted the attention of Louis and Elias.

The former is because they have found a place with a strong sense of "belonging" - the pub, while the latter is paying attention to the word "wine".

Xi Yao noticed where the two people were focusing their attention, and when he turned around he realized that they were looking at the tavern.

This pub is much larger than the one where Louis worked before. The gate is designed in a retro style, like the gate of an ancient castle, making people feel mysterious and solemn.

In addition, outside the tavern, there was a notice board that was very eye-catching. Elias looked closely and found that it was a job advertisement for a bartender.

Seeing this, Elias couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and then turned his head to look at Louis: "Haha, man, did you see that recruitment advertisement? Do you want to..."

Louis nodded: “You don’t have to tell me, I have the intention.”

Elias swallowed again: "Okay then... When are you going to make me some [Black Hole] to drink?"

"Don't worry, wait until I settle down."

"Black hole?" Xi Yao asked with some confusion.

"Oh, that's the name of a glass of his own wine, it tastes really good, one glass makes you tipsy, two glasses make you intoxicated, three glasses makes you fall asleep straight away!

But this guy actually said something like "three cups and you can't leave the bar", and that after drinking three cups of [Black Hole] you can't leave the bar... Ha, you know, last year I drank 18 cups of Black Hole and was still able to get back to the hotel by myself."

Lewis held his forehead and said, “Hey, you really drank without caring about your life… You must have a headache when you wake up in the morning, right?”

“It’s just average…haha, but it tastes really good!”

Xi Yao shrugged: "It's up to you. There happens to be an inn near this tavern. You can stay there before you find an empty room. I'll make arrangements for you tomorrow. I'll go ahead now."

"Wait, I wanted to buy you a drink." Elias said.

"Let's do it later. I have other things to do now." Xi Yao said and looked at his pocket watch: 8:16 p.m.

His biological sleep clock is 12 o'clock at night, or maybe even later, so during this time, maybe he can go to the forge and smelt the Hanyuan ore?

But before that, let’s have dinner first... Xi Yao thought, and walked towards his home.

"Wait, then, since I owe you two favors, how should I repay you?"

Xi Yao stopped, turned around without any hesitation and chuckled, "If you are willing, why not join my team?"

"Ah? What?" Elias thought he had heard it wrong.

“My team lacks a shooter. Although she and I can both perform long-range attacks, our tactical output is not very stable. Once the rhythm is disrupted, it will be dangerous.

Therefore, it might be a good idea to let the shooter with the most stable tactical output join my team... So, what do you think?"

Elias pinched his chin, seemingly thinking... After a moment, he shook his head gently: "Is this okay? I'll give you an answer tomorrow?"

"Okay. Besides, you are free to choose." After Xi Yao finished speaking, he turned around and walked away slowly.

"..."

Elias was still thinking about something... After a while, he shook his head and muttered to himself: "Let's talk about it tomorrow..."

Then he turned around and wanted to look at Louis, but did not see the latter. However, when he looked forward, he realized that Louis was standing in front of the door of "Caesar's Tavern" looking at him.

"Okay, I'm going to apply for the job. You can take care of it yourself." After Louis said that, he turned and walked into Caesar's Tavern.

Elias looked at Caesar's Tavern and muttered to himself, "The wine here... let's try it... Oh, if I don't drink for a day... I feel uncomfortable all over (in Dali Ge's accent)."

……

After a simple dinner, Xi Yao entered the forge and began to smelt the Hanyuan ore. At the same time, he opened the Book of Terra to look at the items in the Hanyuan series.

The first page is the introduction page of the Daedalus Battle Armor. Xi Yao quickly browsed through it and finally found that... the effect of the Daedalus Battle Armor seemed to be inferior to that of the Titanium Battle Armor.

Although the Daedalus armor has the effect of "rebounding" attacks, which can improve survivability... but this will reduce a lot of tactical output...

Besides, as long as the soul is there, there is no need to worry too much about survivability... Of course, if the soul is abused, it will reach the load point, which must be paid attention to.

As for Prism, the tactical output of the Titan's Heart Battlearmor is sufficient, and the defensive ability is not too important for a thief, so let's leave it this way for now.

...So, Xi Yao no longer planned to forge the Daedalus armor, so he turned the next page and found that this page was an introduction to a pair of wings.

"...Starlight Wings...can trigger additional buff effects with Daedalus Armor, slightly increasing tactical output and critical hit rate...

If I don't wear the Daedalus Armor, it won't be effective... But this mobility is worth making."

As he spoke, Xi Yao took out some flying souls from the void storage space. They were needed to make the Starlight Wings... In addition, as it stands now, the Fairy Wings should indeed be eliminated.

After placing the Flying Soul on the forging table, Xi Yao turned a few pages of the Book of Terra and came to the chapter on the Hanyuan series of weapons.

At first glance, Xi Yao saw a warrior weapon called "Frost Blade". He continued to look and learned that the overall performance of this weapon was excellent in its time and it could emit sword energy.

The most tempting thing is that the sword energy of this weapon can be tracked! Seeing this, Xi Yao immediately decided to buy this.

After all, the forbidden sickle of the Oath Forbidden Blade has a slow initial speed and cannot be tracked, so it needs prediction to hit the enemy... Besides, compared to the two-handed sword of the Oath Forbidden Blade, Xi Yao still prefers to use a one-handed sword.

...In addition, apart from the wings and the Frost Blade, the other items in the Frost Ingot series are not very tempting...so there is no need to forge them.

...In this way, after finishing reading the Hanyuan series, Xi Yao closed the Book of Terra, put it on the forging table, and began to solidify the Hanyuan ingots.

……

Applying for Caesar's Tavern is very simple, just practice, the tavern owner will take some cocktail ingredients and let the applicant mix them by themselves...

...At this moment, Louis had already mixed the wine and pushed it to Elandrian, the owner of Caesar Tavern. The latter picked up the glass, took a sip, and his eyes lit up. He immediately turned his head to look over:

"You passed the practical test, come to work tomorrow!"

Lewis nodded: “Well, boss, how about the salary?”

"Oh, as long as someone orders a glass of wine, 40% of the price of the wine will be your reward, and there is no upper limit!" After saying this, Elandrian raised the glass in his hand and drank it all in one gulp.

"That sounds good... Meaning, assuming a glass of wine is worth one silver coin, I can get forty copper coins?"

Yes, and if someone orders ten glasses of wine worth one silver coin, you can get four silver coins... Oh, you should see that my tavern has a good customer flow, so your salary is not a problem. "

"In that case, after deducting the costs and my salary, is this amount of profit really enough for you, the boss?"

"It's okay. I'm here to live, not to kill people... After all, I can't go back to my previous world."

At this time, Elias, who was beside Louis, put down his glass with a little malt liquor in it, and then turned to look at Louis:

"Man, I've had enough of the wine here, Black Hole, I want to drink Black Hole."

"What...is a black hole?" asked Elendrian.

"My homemade wine...would you like to try it?" Louis replied.

"Sure, we have all the ingredients for cocktails here, you can use them," Elandrian said, opening the bartender's passage for Louis to come in.

"Let me make a deal first. I can only give you three drinks..." Louis said as he opened his backpack and searched for something.

Elias immediately protested: "No, eighteen cups is not a problem."

Elandrian nodded as well: "Yeah, three cups is enough for everyone... Is it difficult to mix it?"

"No, it's quite simple, and the cost of materials is not high."

"Why only three drinks?"

"I mean to only give you three drinks, boss. I'm afraid you'll fall asleep after drinking."

Hearing this, Elandrian smiled and said, "Ha, you dare to say that? Just like this guy, give me eighteen cups to try."

Louis frowned slightly: "Well, if Elias wants to drink like this, I will just try to dissuade him with words. After all, he is like the legendary alcohol-immune body... But as for you..."

"Don't look down on me. In my previous world, I either wiped tables or drank all day long. I can drink quite a lot," said Elandrian.

Hearing this, Lewis chuckled and sighed: “Okay, okay…”
