Terraria: Cruel World Legends

Inastan Desert Station, main building work area——

The staff gathered together, looking at the biological radar search on the two-dimensional display screen in confusion... They could observe with the naked eye that the positions of the enemy monsters shown by the light spots were rapidly decreasing.

"...Wilson, the sandstorm...isn't over yet?" The supervisor frowned, raised his hand to push his glasses, and asked.

"Not yet, supervisor. It's still coming extremely violently, with wind speeds exceeding 25 meters per second." The officer named Wilson replied.

After hearing this, the supervisor shook his head, stared at the display screen with a complicated expression, and said: "...Everyone knows that the enemy monsters during the sandstorm are in a cooperative relationship and generally will not attack each other...

Even if a fight broke out due to some circumstances, it would not be so one-sided. Looking at the disappearance pattern of the enemy coordinates, it looks like...someone is out there massacring people?"

The operators did not communicate with each other after that and just remained silent... They knew that there must be a being outside who could unilaterally suppress and kill the sandstorm enemies.

Even though we don't know whether it is a human or something else, if that entity wants to attack the site, it will definitely not be a good thing.

…At the same time, in the rest area opposite the work area, Prism leaned against the wall, her arms folded across her chest, and stared at the ceiling with a calm expression. Then she glanced at the staff in the work area who were lost in thought, and soon guessed what was happening outside the site at this moment.

"...If his fighting ability is like this, then that eccentric fellow would be a good partner." After pondering for a moment, Prism said softly.

……

Amidst the fierce sandstorm and the flying yellow sand, Shen Yue stood lightly on the spire of the building. She turned her back to the sand flow, rubbed out balls of pink and white fireworks, and then casually threw them at the enemy monsters.

Oh, it's worth mentioning that Shen Yue just remembered that this pink and white flame actually has a name:

——【God-killing Rage】——

...The speed of the fireworks was not very fast, but in Shen Yue's hands, it could always hit the target accurately. Then, at a speed visible to the naked eye, the enemy's body was completely burned away... It can be said that there was not a single bone left, not a trace of dust left.

Of course, spoils such as the Essence Incarnation are still intact.

"Ah..." Shen Yue yawned casually, then she looked around at the yellow sand, the god-killing flames that continued to burn... and the various enemy monsters that were scared away from here quickly.

"Puwu...Haha, what's going on? How come I'm the only one bullying the weakling? Hey, this is not fun." Shen Yue said with a grin, obviously being Versailles.

Of course, it was just a smile. Shen Yue didn't intend to kill them all. After confirming that there were no enemy monsters approaching, he decided to descend from the top of the building under his feet, which was also the relative distance of this space jump...

...That's right, not long ago, Shen Yue had just jumped out of the microcosm and stepped on such a sharp peak and almost fell down.

Shen Yue had to admit that the relative position of the jump was difficult to grasp.

...Taking a deep breath and mustering up his courage, Shen Yue jumped down from the roof...Of course, if the station building under his feet, which was only one or two stories higher, was one or two stories higher, Shen Yue would never dare to do so.

Landing heavily on the yellow sand, Shen Yue first spat out the sand in his mouth, which he was forced to eat because he opened his mouth involuntarily during the falling process.

“Pooh…Pooh…Pooh…Pooh…”

After spitting out everything, Shen Yue walked briskly along the direction of the sandstorm, towards the purple patches... cough, those patches of god-killing flames.

You know, her God-killing Fury is always accurate. As long as there is fireworks burning, that is the location where the enemy monster will be killed.

Now, there are no enemy monsters around, and Shen Yue is very curious about what the so-called essence trophies are, as he always hears his talkative mother talk about them.

...After walking for dozens of steps, Shen Yue first picked up a slender crystal near the nearest area. The structure of the crystal was an octahedron, on which black and golden colors were irregularly distributed.

Obviously, one of the ancient elemental spirits, the [Sand Spirit], was killed by her as a small monster.

"Wow, there is actually a reflection. This is so beautiful. Let me put it away, hehe." Shen Yue said, and threw the "forbidden fragment" in his hand upwards. At the same time, a small dark purple vortex suddenly appeared above, and the forbidden fragment was thrown into it.

"Hehe, the storage space my mom gave me finally comes in handy." After saying that, Shen Yue was about to walk towards another fireworks... But at this moment, she suddenly realized that the yellow sand under her feet was moving violently, and then, another sand shark broke out of the ground.

Shen Yue was shocked by this sudden situation. She instinctively activated her magic power, and a ball of god-killing flames immediately appeared in her hand... Then Shen Yue didn't care about anything else, and rushed forward with the flame in her hand, and attacked the sand shark in front of her.

...Under such and such attacks from the melee mage, the sand shark soon lost its vitality, or even its structure was incomplete (?

The crisis was resolved, Shen Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time looked at the shark fin that the sand shark had preserved. After discovering something new, Shen Yue curiously reached out to pick it up, and put it to his nose to smell it...

"Ugh... a fishy smell..." Shen Yue retched and threw the shark fin aside in disgust, then continued to walk towards other fireworks. She was planning to collect more novel essence spoils.

………………

Argos lies hidden in lost ruins, silently witnessing the passage of time.

He didn't care how much time had passed.

He doesn't care about the current situation on the mainland.

He doesn't care whether he is still considered a "human" because he is isolated from the world.

Just because he was a vassal without a state.

…In the silence, Argus suddenly noticed that his only companion, Torres, an unusually large sand shark, suddenly fell into unprecedented anxiety.

Torres was originally just lying there quietly, witnessing the passage of time with him. Argos could guarantee that from the beginning till now, neither the man nor the shark had made any sound of communication.

Argos wanted to call out to his sand shark companion and ask it what happened... However, it seemed that he had not spoken for too long and Argos could no longer make any sound.

Seeing that Torres was becoming more and more anxious, Argus just nodded silently, conveying his meaning through body language.

Torres noticed Argos's actions and understood them in an instant. Without any hesitation, he drilled into the hard sand at an astonishing speed, making a huge noise and rushing towards the surface.

...Soon, the noise stopped and the ruins returned to their deathly silence.

Apart from the nod just now, Argos did not make any other movements, did not watch him leave, and did not even glance over.

He just silently continued to witness what he had always witnessed.

He doesn't care about the passage of time because he is the witness of time.
