Terraria: Cruel World Legends

Soon, Xiyao and Prism arrived at the end of the downward passage, which was the sacred cave 1200 meters above the ground. Then, as the guard said, they walked along the stone bricks under their feet.

After turning a corner, the two came to a place similar to a corridor. The pillars, floors and ceilings here were all made of white stone bricks, and there was a lantern every five meters to illuminate the way forward.

Xi Yao thought that this place might be the monster spawning site that the guard mentioned, so he cut open the void space, took out the Eternal Night, and turned his head to look at the prism:

"Get ready, draw your weapons."

Then Prism nodded slightly... and in the blink of an eye, several cobalt blue kunai appeared in her hands.

"A trick?" Xi Yao muttered to himself, pinching his chin, then shook his head, tightly grasped Yongye and walked forward...

At this moment, a man in cobalt blue armor walked out of the darkness twenty meters in front of Xi Yao. The man first looked at Xi Yao from a distance, and after a moment of silence, he walked quickly towards him.

Xi Yao held Yongye's hand even tighter and looked at him warily.

"Huh? Are you here to get the Soul of Light?" the man said when he came to a place five meters away from Xiyao.

"...Yes...you too?" Xi Yao said, his eyes falling on him.

The man shook his head: "No, I'm the guard of the underground monster farm. I just received a communication signal from the guards above, saying that someone will be coming down soon... I think it's you?" said the guard.

"Hmm? Isn't this a monster spawning ground?" Xi Yao said, looking around the corridor.

"How is that possible? With the help of the Tranquilizing Lantern, the monster spawning speed is extremely slow. How is it possible to spawn monsters here? This is just an aisle. Okay, please follow me, I'll take you to the monster spawning site." With that, the guard turned and walked away.

After a moment of silence, Xi Yao looked at the prism beside him and said, "Be alert."

After saying that, Xiyao followed the guard, and Prism followed behind Xiyao.

……

Soon, Xi Yao arrived at the end of the corridor. There was a lift gate at the end of the corridor, and there were several guards guarding there.

At this time, the guard captain frowned and glanced at the guard who led Xiyao, then looked at Xiyao. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Is this the mayor of Dongfang Town?"

"Yeah." Xi Yao answered him and then looked at the lift gate.

"Well, how long do you plan to stay in there?" asked the captain of the guard.

"Huh? Is there a time limit?" Xi Yao frowned and asked in confusion.

"No, I'm just asking." The guard captain shrugged, then folded his arms and looked at Xi Yao:

"As for you... um... I guess you'll only need to stay here for about an hour... But you can stay as long as you want. Just call us if you feel like you're dying. We'll come in and try to save you."

Hearing this, Xi Yao frowned and asked, "Excuse me, is there any powerful enemy monster under the sacred land?"

"I guess so, but this is not a problem. The main problem in spawning monsters in a monster farm is actually physical strength. You have to know that the monsters in the monster farm are like a tide, but your physical strength cannot keep up. So if you keep spawning monsters, your physical strength will soon not be able to keep up. A normal person will be exhausted after about an hour of spawning."

Hearing this, Xi Yao frowned and pinched his chin as if he was thinking about something...

You know, it's already afternoon, and Xiyao and Prism haven't had lunch yet. It would be very difficult to kill monsters with their current physical strength...

The captain of the guard looked at Xi Yao's expression, seemed to see what he was thinking, smiled slightly, then walked over and patted Xi Yao on the shoulder.

"You didn't eat, did you?"

“... um...” After saying that, Xi Yao felt a little embarrassed.

"Is that so... How about this, I'll give you two food." As he said that, the guard captain took out a bag of compressed biscuits and a bag of bread.

"Sorry, this is all we have for now. After all, we guards can't eat with bowls in our hands, right?" said the captain of the guards, scratching his head.

After seeing the food, Xiyao was stunned at first, then turned his head slightly to look at the prism, and found a calm and lovely face. Although her expression was calm, Xiyao could see her expectations for the food.

Then Xi Yao frowned and looked at the guard captain: "There is no free lunch in the world, what do you want?"

Hearing this, the guard leader smiled and said, "How clever... All right, I'll tell you, I want 20% of the Soul of Light you get from killing monsters."

Hearing this, Xi Yao slowly lowered his head and pondered over something. After a moment, he raised his head and glanced at the guard captain: "Let's say, if I get ten bottles (one bottle = 2 Souls of Light), do I have to give you two bottles?"

"Yes... But you can rest assured. I don't want the Soul of Light for my own benefit. I want to hand it over to the country." As soon as the guard captain finished speaking, the guard next to him spoke:

"Come on, you handed it over to the country just to gain merit and get a promotion, right?"

"...Uh...ahem...Mayor of Dongfang Town, what do you think?" The captain of the guards quickly avoided the guard's revelation and looked at Xi Yao.

"20%...Okay." After saying that, Xi Yao reached out to take the food handed to him by the captain of the guard, and then handed it to Prism.

The calm expression on Prism's face changed slightly. She raised her head and looked at Xi Yao: "What can I do for you?"

"Eat. When you're full, come in with me to kill monsters." As he said that, Xi Yao took out a piece of bread and bit into it, then put the compressed biscuits and the rest of the bread on the ground.

Prism hesitated for a few seconds before reaching out to take out a piece of bread. She then rolled the bread into a ball and stuffed it into her mouth. She chewed it two or three times before swallowing it...

"...uh...is this how all girls eat?" At this moment, Xiyao suddenly spoke. Prism was slightly startled. Then she turned her head to look at Xiyao and found that Xiyao was actually looking at her. His expression was calm and confused.

It's easy to tell that Xiyao was watching her eat...

"Girls should chew their food slowly, right?" Xi Yao asked.

"...I'm sorry, I still can't change it now, I will try my best." As she said that, Prism reached out and took a piece of bread, then she opened her mouth slightly, bit off a small part of the bread, and then chewed it slowly, like a lady.

"Uh... I don't mean to ask you to change... I'm just asking... Wait, what did you just say? Change?" Xi Yao suddenly frowned and looked at the prism.

"I used to carry out missions for...them...often, and I had very little time for meals, so I gradually developed that unladylike habit." After Prism finished speaking, he opened his mouth slightly again, and was stunned for a second before biting off a small portion.

"Well, Xiyao, don't worry, I'm trying my best to change... I will become a... lady..." Prism said while chewing and looking at Xiyao.

“……”Xi Yao just remained silent.
