Is it really normal to contain these anomalies?

Aika just quietly watched the blue water emitting a faint glow lapping against the beach just like an hour ago. Everything seemed to be so beautiful without any change.

She generally doesn't feel disgusted by such scenery.

But this time, she inexplicably felt something was wrong.

And it wasn't until a few minutes later that Aika raised an eyebrow, finally realizing what was missing.

"...Where's that fisherman brat?"

Yes, they were the only ones on this empty beach now. This was so abnormal.

After all, with that kid's temper, let alone an hour, it is very likely that he will sit in one place for a whole day without moving as long as he is asked to fish.

But now...

"I finally couldn't help myself and went home."

No one around responded to Aijia for a while, even Bai Yu seemed to be silently appreciating the beautiful scenery in front of him.

Because of this, she could only rely on her own speculation to make judgments.

"Well, it's better to go home. It's too dangerous for a child like this to be out in the world in the middle of the night..."

Her eyes swept across the entire beach, but suddenly her thoughts were interrupted.

Because when the waves receded, she saw...

The fishing box and torn linen hidden in the churning white foam were finally exposed.

Perhaps... his blood and limbs had long been completely wiped out by the rolling waves.

"That little devil was really eaten?"

At this moment, it is actually difficult for Aijia to describe her feelings in words.

After all, as a normal person, the thought of this brat being dragged into the sea by a monster all alone, unable to cry for help in the surging waves, and being able to watch the monster pierce him with its hard spikes, and finally being bitten and eaten by the monster with a feeling of suffocation and severe pain...

This seems—quite cool?!

Aika's face turned into one of surprise. It was the first time she discovered that she had such an evil nature!

"Bai Yu, I think I might have to come to the training department to seek psychological counseling from you."

She suppressed her laughter and turned to look at her companions beside her. Perhaps this would alleviate her slight sense of guilt.

But she was just overthinking it.

Bai Yu had no intention of saying anything. He just continued to look at the sea in front of him with great solemnity.

Others may not know, but as a time traveler, he must know...

The sea water in Terraria is not like this at all!

Glowing? This can only mean that the seawater is rich in bioluminescent microorganisms!

And in the countless games he had played before crossing over, there really was something that could compete with this thing.

"Hai Hei..."

Bai Yu murmured.

He recognized it as a terrifying fish called 'Dust Eater' in the sea.

They exist in the form of enriched microorganisms and generally drift in the sea with ocean currents until they come into contact with land and stop their migration.

Their mission in life is to transform or devour the coastline according to the different instructions of the large group.

"It seems the guide was right. You do know them?"

The tree demon glanced at Bai Yu, but then continued to chant the spell to himself.

The power of nature gathered in her hands, green leaves brushed against the sea, and the fluorescence disappeared...

As a member of the tree demon clan that defeated the ancient god Cthulhu countless years ago, with the blessing of the power of Terraria's rules, it is not a problem for the tree demon to eliminate these current existences.

Chapter 158 Speculation

Only after temporarily dealing with these matters did the tree demon speak again.

"This world is 8% Crimson, and this 1% is unknown... Adventurer, I need to know about these beings that suddenly appeared in Terraria."

She wasn't kidding, she could sense the balance of power in Terraria.

The power of Crimson and Corruption has been eroding Terraria and destroying countless worlds for countless eons. How could a new threat suddenly appear?

But now...Bai Yu couldn't give her an accurate answer.

'Why did Hai Si appear in Terraria?'

"Now that the branch hasn't come, are these beings simply fleeing to whichever world he's in?"

He's really numb...

After a few minutes, he finally accepted the reality and found out.

Even if you choose to accept reality and put aside questions about Hai Si's origins for the time being, only more questions will pop up.

For example...

'Who's leading the pack now?'

This is very important, after all, Haisi is a typical hive mind.

There are four large central nodes (the First Born, also known as the Sea God). Only one of these four central nodes can control the entire group, and the powers and directions they are responsible for are also different.

Wrong guidance can only lead to devastating consequences.

For example, in the Ark plot, in an IF line that ends the world, the center that controls "struggle" and "migration" controls the entire swarm and orders it to attack the entire land of Terra...

How much of Terraria's ocean is controlled by Hai Si?

These two points are also very important. As a typical Zerg template, Haisi's overall strength is closely related to the resources and territories it owns.

If it was just a single phobia, Bai Yu would probably be able to tear several of them apart with his bare hands. But once he lets them snowball, he will probably face the outcome of "my swarm of insects is endless, and your people are suffering casualties every minute and every second."

"Ms. Dryad, can you specifically determine the range and number of Haisi's activities?"

Bai Yu now really has the urge to drink a bottle of underwater breathing potion and jump in to kill them all.

But the tree demon's silence was deafening. She really didn't know the answer to this question.

After all, she could only sense the extent of the world's corruption, but had no idea of its specific scope.

"Ok."

Bai Yu could only sigh after reacting.

"Sorry, let me answer your question first. This is a creature called a sea slug. Their specific situation depends on the opinions of the large group."

As he said this, he glanced at the scattered 'relics'. He wasn't sure whether the fisherman had attacked it or he had been attacked by Hai Si.

"If we're lucky and encounter an inactive Kaiji, we can coexist peacefully, but if it's activated... things might get a little complicated."

Um...

Bai Yu's words were a bit cautious, and he even seemed to be disregarding this existence that destroyed the world on the land of Terra.

But he still felt that Hai Si was just a man-made creation after all.

As a 'sweeping robot' created by a previous civilization.

The world will be destroyed in three months?

That can only be said to be directed at the nations on Terra...

But in Terraria where fragments of ancient gods are everywhere, it is probably unlikely that Hai Si can accomplish all this easily.

After all, Crimson, Corruption, Inferno, Light and Dark Souls...

These native world power systems that were born and raised in Terraria are, after all, not normal and easy to mess with.

Even the ocean, that Duke of Fishron Shark that can only be challenged by a meat queen, is still sleeping in it. If Hai Si wants to expand his underwater territory and go ashore on a large scale, he even needs to deal with it first...

There should still be time.

According to the tree demon, Hai Si's presence only accounts for 1%, which obviously does not mean that the entire group was moved here.

Therefore, Bai Yu now simply gave his own speculation.

"If its aggressive nature is activated, Haisi might expand into the dungeon or even deeper, but it's highly unlikely to break through the Crimson Land."

"Hmm... Is that so?" The tree demon stroked his chin with his slender fingers. "It seems that you have some understanding of their habits..."

"almost."

"Very good! Then I will provide you with purification powder for free. I have tried it, and those traces of tentacles spreading underground can be eliminated with this powder..."

The dryad nodded in satisfaction.

"Then please cooperate with me as much as possible to eliminate these invaders called Haisi."

"If necessary."

The task was easily completed amidst the sound of waves.

After all, Bai Yu has no choice. If this world is swallowed by Hai Si, it will not do him any good.

And now, they are leaving.

He took one last look at the ocean behind him. The waves near the shore no longer had a faint fluorescent glow.

'Perhaps after a while they will come back?'

Bai Yu shook his head and took out the magic mirror. At least these things were not something he should worry about now.

He stared at himself in the mirror, and with a flash of blue light, they all disappeared onto the beach.

But no one knows.

In the dark sea, a pair of eyes saw them on the shore.

The terrifying fish witnessed the whole process, and its small eyes transmitted all of this clearly back to the group's consciousness.

"Is it the Doctor?"

It wondered if he was the one He was looking for.

But soon, the crowd gave its own response, and the sad song stirred the entire ocean...

And in this.

The fish's eyes flushed slightly red, but it eventually chose to return to the sea silently...

"senior."

Seeing Bai Yu and the other two appear from the bedside, Komini, who was already able to walk steadily under the influence of the chaotic brain, also came over.

"You've adapted very well..." Bai Yu praised, but without further ado, "Stay a while, we'll make one more piece of equipment and then leave."

He quickly took out several sets of blood-red armor that had already taken shape from the furnace.
