Terraria: Cruel World Legends

……

Since the "enchanted" Destruction Blade joined the battle, the pace of the competition has accelerated... In essence, this has advantages and disadvantages for both sides, but Elias feels that he, the archer, is the one who suffers...

The huge steel blade in Xiyao's hand seemed to be more useful than a shield. The bullets fired by the agate blaster were even bounced away when they hit it... and the explosion of the blaster was almost completely blocked by the destruction blade...

Elias himself was frequently hit by the sparks scattered by the crescent sword energy... Even the sparks were only the size of particles and could stick to the battle armor and burn... If it was not dealt with, it might even continue to burn...

This is, after all, the sulfur fire of the element of sulfur fire.

There's no point in going on... After dodging another round of predicted scattered sparks, the already tired Elias thought to himself. Then he slowed down and finally stopped in the air. Xi Yao, who was behind him, couldn't help but stop chasing when he saw Elias's move.

Elias first put away the agate blasting gun, then stretched exaggeratedly, turned around and looked at Xi Yao, and spoke quietly:

"Xiyao, let's stop here. I'm tired of fighting..."

"So, what's your choice?" Xi Yao asked straight to the point.

Elias moved his sore wrist and said briskly: "I, Elias, a tactical professional shooter, am now invited to join your team."

Xi Yao first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "That means my performance was not bad?"

Elias also exhaled: "Huh... To be honest, Xiyao, among all the people I have met so far, you are the only one who makes me want to have a good fight with you.

After saying that, Elias and Xiyao looked at each other and said, "Xiyao, I think I treated this competition as a real duel... but you didn't. I can feel that you are holding back... So, if we have a chance in the future, let's have a good fight."

Xi Yao didn't say anything, just nodded slightly... If you really want to say, he did have a trick up his sleeve... Oh, two tricks, anger value and adrenaline.

Elias stretched again and yawned, "Ha... It's afternoon... I have the habit of taking a nap. Shall I go first? You don't have to fight now, right?"

"There is no plan at the moment. If there is, the three of us will go out together." Xi Yao replied.

Elias thought for a moment and then smiled: "Three people... Oh, there's a girl, right? Let me guess, her tactical profession should be a thief?"

Just as Xi Yao was about to speak, a calm female voice suddenly came: "Yes, I am indeed a thief."

Elias first looked towards the source of the sound and found that a girl had appeared outside the battlefield at some point, with a horse lying beside her...

No, there is a horn on the forehead... Oh, it's a unicorn... Oh, I thought it was a horse... Elias thought, but soon he realized that something was wrong.

Eh? Eh? Elias suddenly became a little excited: "No, a unicorn?"

"Yes, a unicorn." Xi Yao answered, then looked at the girl outside the venue: "Prism, when did you come to watch the game?"

Prism said calmly, "Not long after you started sparring, I saw you from a distance, and then I came with Azure... You didn't notice us?"

Xi Yao recalled carefully and shook his head: "It seems... I really didn't pay much attention to the surrounding environment... Our eyes were on each other."

After saying that, Xiyao turned his head to look for Elias, and found that he was hiding behind him nervously... After being noticed by Xiyao, Elias took a breath and said, "Well, don't ask. The only thing you need to know is that I was knocked away by a unicorn before."

"Huh?" Xi Yao was a little confused.

"Huh?" Prism was a little confused.

"Huh?" Bilan was a little confused.

Elias realized that he had been a little too radical, and coughed awkwardly: "Ahem... let's not talk about the dark history..."

"Tell me about it?" Xi Yao asked with some interest.

"...Uh...well...just liven up the atmosphere..." Elias said, took a deep breath, and then said:

"At the beginning of the Evil Age's reappearance, about two months ago, I came to the sacred land, intending to kill a unicorn and get its horn."

Hearing this, Bilan hid behind the prism in fear. Seeing this, Elias couldn't help but laugh and cry: "Little guy, I'm afraid of even the sharp horn of a unicorn now, how could I kill you?"

After calming Bi Lan down, Elias coughed lightly and said, "Ahem, let me continue. When I picked a target and was about to shoot it, a unicorn rushed over from behind me with my back against the hillside...

I didn’t react at all at that time. I just felt a strong push from behind me, and I was blown away… and the sharp horn seemed to have pierced my buttocks…”

Xiyao and Prism were trying their best to hold back their laughter, while Azulan raised his hoof and fiddled with his sharp horn... Seeing this, Elias scratched his head awkwardly... Although he only scratched Daedalus's helmet:

"Ahem, that's it... I stayed in bed for a month before it healed... I didn't expect that the unicorn's horn could pierce the Daedalus armor so easily... I didn't achieve my goal..."

"Okay..." Xi Yao stopped teasing, "Can I ask why you want to kill the unicorn to get its horn?"

"Oh, grind it into powder and mix it with your cocktails," Elias replied.

"Cocktails? Unicorn horn powder?"

"Yeah... my bartender friend Louis said he found a torn page of a recipe for a 'lost wine', which uses unicorn horns and crystal fragments, two specialties from the sacred land, as two ingredients. The rest of the ingredients are unknown...

But I thought it would be good to put them in a cocktail, so I went to the sacred place to collect unicorn horns... But who would have thought... Ugh..."

Xi Yao pinched his chin. He had never thought that the unicorn horn and the crystal fragments could be used to make cocktails. Besides, judging from Elias's expression, he seemed to want to drink that "lost wine"...

Wait, the Book of Terra is the Terra Continent Encyclopedia left by Andrew. Is there a possibility that...? It also records the "recipe and mixing method of the lost wine?"

Thinking of this, Xi Yao opened the void storage space, first put the Blade of Destruction in it, and then took out the Book of Terra.

Xi Yao looked at Elias and said, "This book may contain what you want, but it is just a possibility."

...But Elias didn't seem to notice the book in Xiyao's hand. He just looked at the empty storage space he opened: "I just wanted to ask, what is this purple plane?"

"Oh, one called the void storage space...wait..." Xi Yao suddenly remembered something halfway through his words. It was an idea he had had before: Could the void storage space be used as a "temporary camp" for people to live in?

...I think it should be possible? After all, the first living creature, the rabbit, was still alive and kicking after being put in for a while, and the blue and Elias who visited the void storage space were also fine...

But now we have time...why not try to see if it is true? Thinking of this, Xi Yao handed the Book of Terra to Prism: "Help me get it."

After Prism took the Book of Terra, Xi Yao stretched out his right hand and opened a larger void storage space that allowed people to enter and exit freely. He then looked at Elias and said, "Want to go in and take a look?"

"Oh? This is your storage space. You're not afraid to let me in..."

"We are teammates now and resources are shared." Xi Yao said.

Hearing this, Elias smiled softly and walked towards the void storage space: "Okay, I'll go in and take a look inside. Don't close the door for me."

After saying that, Elias first tentatively put his hands and feet in. When he found that there was no discomfort or abnormality, he breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his head to look at Xi Yao: "This thing should be very suitable for hiding."

"I thought so too." As soon as Xi Yao finished speaking, Elias completely entered the void storage space... But at this moment, Elias suddenly and strangely stopped moving.

Xi Yao thought he was surprised to see the mountains of items inside, but when he reached out and gently pushed Elias... but Elias still maintained the posture when he entered the void storage space, without any change.

"What's wrong?" Xi Yao sensed something was wrong and immediately stretched out his hands to pull Elias out... and almost at the moment when Elias's outermost shoulder left the void storage space, he moved, which scared Xi Yao so much that he let go.

"What's wrong? Why did you pull me out as soon as I went in?" Elias turned his head and looked at him in confusion. At this time, Elias's shoulder was still outside.

"You...you pull your shoulders in." Xi Yao said tentatively. After the latter did so, Elias fell into a strange stillness again.

Xiyao leaned forward and touched him carefully, and found that Elias's breathing, heartbeat, and pulse had all... stopped! Xiyao immediately pulled Elias out, but because he didn't control the force well, Elias fell to the ground when he was pulled out.

Elias got up from the ground: "Hiss... No... What are you doing? I can't see clearly."

"Wait, this is very weird. Stop first and we'll talk later..." As he said this, Xi Yao felt that there was something wrong with his mind, and he immediately closed the void storage space.

"Huh... Now, let me take a look at the Book of Terra to see if there is the lost wine you want to drink..."

"Oh, okay." Elias responded readily, and then recalled the feeling when he just entered the void storage space... To be honest, he felt nothing unusual, not a bit abnormal, not a bit of discomfort.

...But the strange thing is, the moment he completely entered the void storage space, Xi Yao would pull him out, twice...He didn't even have a clear look at what was inside, and this guy pulled him out...What the hell...

"Forget it..." Elias shook his head. It was very rude to look at other people's storage backpacks casually, not to mention this strange storage space.

Xi Yao tried hard to stay calm, then looked up and met Prism's gaze, his eyes saying: Did you see it just now too?

Prism blinked and nodded slightly: Very weird.

After a brief eye contact, Xi Yao came back to his senses, and after confirming that he was sane, he looked at Elias and said, "By the way, what is the name of that lost wine?"

"Oh...it seems to be called Fabsol Vodka." said Elias.
