"How about I abandon Lord Saint Emperor and pursue you now?"
"Eh...are you the kind of otaku who imagines if someone likes you as long as they are a little bit nice to you?"
"Yeonju, how about we go up to 977 to eat sushi tonight? Just the two of us."
"But then again, if you have excellent work performance, I may consider you."
"So you want to go too, right?"
"…There is a sushi restaurant in District 3. Although the price is a bit expensive, the taste is absolutely first-rate."
"Ms. Kisara is really easy to understand."
The restricted area outside the monolith was full of dangers, and even Sima Heavy Industries would need some time to set up a base.
The first outpost will be completed in about two days, and during this time all we can do is wait.
Of course, police officers who are ranked high and confident in their own abilities can also choose to go ahead and explore the restricted area.
However, Su Ye decided to take advantage of this time to get rid of the boss he had been thinking about.
With the strength and equipment he has accumulated so far, it is enough to advance Terraria to Skeleton King within two days.
No, according to the time ratio, two days in the Black Bullet world is four days in the Terraria world.
Maybe Su Ye could go to the jungle to collect some materials and make the "Bee of Hate" to summon the queen bee and practice in advance.
"Brother, the environment here is a bit disgusting..."
Yanzhu looked around vigilantly, with a frown on her cute face.
Everywhere within the field of vision was purple, either dark or light.
The purple here does not appear noble, but rather seems to be a synonym for corruption and evil.
In addition, there seemed to be a faint creeping sound in the air.
It was as if some invisible bugs were buzzing around under my feet, in the air, and in invisible corners.
This made the little girl feel a creepy feeling of discomfort all over her body.
"Because this is a place of evil and corruption."
Su Ye, who was leading the way in front, cut through the thorn bushes blocking the road and threw the javelin in his hand casually.
The Desert Scourge quickly dived underground, then jumped out of the ground and knocked down an ugly monster floating in the sky.
The Eater of Souls is the most common monster in the Corruption. It can float in the air and its shape resembles the mouthparts of a giant insect.
Once they spot their prey, the Soul Eaters swarm over it, tearing it apart from all sides.
In this sinister environment filled with wasteland, death and decay, there is no shortage of enemies.
"Be careful underground."
Hearing the creaking sound coming from the soles of his feet, Su Ye reminded.
In addition to the Soul Eaters in the sky, there are also Soul Eaters in the Corruption that can burrow into the ground.
This vile worm, with a similar body structure to the Scourge, can travel beneath the surface.
In a sense, it is a small monster version of the "World Devourer" -
As the boss of the Corruption, the World Devourer is a burrowing worm that has been magnified thousands of times.
"Hey!"
Yanzhu seemed to have noticed something and suddenly jumped high.
The purple soil beneath her feet was suddenly broken, and a devourer rushed out with its mouthparts constantly clamped.
Faced with the sudden appearance of the enemy, Yanzhu was relieved.
After all, the unknown is the most terrifying thing.
Now that the enemy has revealed himself, there is nothing to be afraid of.
She just tapped her toes lightly in the air and jumped up again with the help of the "Cloud Bottle".
Then he fell down at an astonishing speed, and the Sahara double blades in his hands directly cut the Devourer in half!
However, the Devourer is made up of many segments, and even if one of the segments is cut off, it can break into two shorter Devourers and continue to move.
"When dealing with this kind of enemy, remember to root it out."
Su Ye on the side took out the spell book and released a whirlwind of the sea god.
The whirlwind with multiple attacks directly tore all the body segments of the devourer into pieces, turning them into flesh pulp that fell to the ground.
"I always feel that these monsters are more terrifying than protostomes."
Yanzhu walked away with disgust and gave a very "high" evaluation.
"We're just getting started with protostomes. There are still many terrifying things in this world."
Su Ye curled his lips, thinking that if the World Devourer was placed in the Black Bullet World, it would at least be at Stage IV.
Apart from not having the strong vitality of the protostomes, destroying a city is not a problem in terms of destructive power alone.
"Got it... From here we should be able to reach the underground space of the Corrupted Land."
In a place filled with rotten grass and thorny bushes, Su Ye finally found a dark crack.
This fissure extends downward in a straight line until it intersects with a horizontal connecting passage.
At the bottom of the passage, there will be a "Shadow Orb" containing evil energy hidden inside.
Just destroy it with a bomb and you can get the treasure in the Shadow Orb.
However, once the number of destroyed Shadow Orbs exceeds 3, the "World Devourer" will be awakened immediately!
Su Ye came here today specifically to summon the Boss.
In addition to making boss summoning items, destroying shadow orbs is undoubtedly a more efficient method.
After drinking a bottle of Feather Fall Potion, Su Ye reached out to Yan Zhu.
"I'm going to go down now. Don't forget my previous instructions."
Yanzhu obediently hugged Su Ye's neck and pressed her petite body against him.
The next moment, Su Ye jumped directly into the lightless crack, but his falling speed was not as fast as he had imagined.
He seemed to have turned into a feather, floating lightly in the air.
This is the effect of [Featherfall Potion].
In the pitch-black space, balls of fire were lit along the inner walls of the crack.
Yanzhu held a bunch of torches and placed them on the rock wall while falling. They served as marks and provided light.
As the distance from the ground increases, the surrounding air gradually becomes cold and sticky.
Even the sound of dripping water could be clearly heard in the silent space. When Su Ye landed on the ground, a muffled sound like a beating heart was heard.
"Yeonju, keep watch for me."
Because a bomb is needed to destroy the Shadow Orb, this kind of thing definitely cannot be left to Yanzhu.
So Su Ye personally took up the task of clearing the monsters and left it to his initiator.
He also summoned a baby storm antlion. Although the damage was not high, it could stop the enemy a little.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you from behind, brother!"
Yanzhu waved her little fist and assured confidently.
Su Ye nodded and jumped towards the bottom of the crack.
The Feather Fall Potion still had a lot of duration left, but this time Su Ye jumped into a pool of water.
"Water accumulation... Not bad."
Su Ye, who possesses the functions of "Sea King", is more flexible in the water.
He went straight to the bottom of the pool, and after confirming that there was hard rotten rock under his feet, he took out a few round blue bombs from his inventory.
These bombs are "sticky bombs" made by adding gel to ordinary bombs.
After being thrown, it will stick to the place where it first touches and will not roll around randomly.
It is more useful in an environment where targeted blasting is required.
"One, two, three...that's about enough."
After placing the bomb, Su Ye quickly raised his hand and swung out a hook, pulling his body to a high place.
As he jumped out of the water, there were several muffled explosions coming from under his feet!
[Shudder, creepy…]
A line of prompt information appeared in Su Ye's vision.
This allowed him to confirm that the explosion just now successfully destroyed a shadow bead.
"...Brother, are you okay?"
Yanzhu's voice came from above his head. Su Ye replied to reassure her, and then dived into the pool again.
The water level of the pool was much lower than before because a huge hole was blown out at its bottom.
Some glowing props were mixed in with the dirty mud and stones, and Su Ye stuffed them all into the inventory.
The items dropped after the Shadow Orb is destroyed are actually fixed.
The first time, a "musket" and 100 musket bullets will definitely drop.
Seeing the extra guns in the inventory, Su Ye showed an expression of "as expected".
This weapon was only used in the early stages of development, and he no longer needs it now.
You can give her to Minami Rika as a toy, since her skills can ignore bullet consumption.
[Screams echoing in all directions...]
After blowing up the second shadow bead, Su Ye began to tense up and get serious.
Because if you destroy one more Shadow Orb, the Boss of the Evil Land will awaken!
"Let me see what the second Shadow Orb exploded for me first."
Su Ye quickly glanced at the inventory and found that a pet item had been dropped for him this time!
[Shadow Orb (Blue): After equipping, summon a magic shadow orb to follow you]
Su Ye tried to summon the Shadow Orb, and in the blink of an eye, a purple energy ball the size of a watermelon appeared in front of him.
As Su Ye moves, it will slowly follow, but not very fast.
Although the Shadow Orb itself can emit a faint light, if you want to use it for lighting... you might as well rely on a torch.
"...It can't be said to be completely useless. At least it can be sold for some money."
The role of pet props in Terraria is decoration.
Apart from providing emotional value...it has no other function.
Coming to the location of the third shadow bead, Su Ye took a deep breath and took out the detonator from the inventory.
The detonator takes longer to detonate than the bomb, giving him more time to escape.
"Come on, World Devourer... let me defeat you!"
After preparing himself mentally, Su Ye used his grappling hook to reach a high place and gently threw the detonator in his hand down.
Then... he summoned his slime mount and jumped out of the bottom of the passage, quickly scanning the surroundings.
"Yeonju! Come here!"
"The enemy is about to wake up!"
The next moment, Su Ye felt footsteps coming from behind him, as if something was flying towards him.
"Brother...I'm coming!"
"Hurry up!"
Su Ye immediately felt relieved and controlled his slime mount to jump high. Finally, he used the hook to successfully leave the rift and reach the ground of the corrupted land.
