The purple wasteland exuded an aura of death and decay; it was a cursed land, with a large number of monsters roaming about, ready to devour any life that set foot on it.
Yang Tao took a deep breath of the air, which was filled with a light purple mist, and looked at the charging Eater of Souls, sighing, "It has to be Terraria; these monsters are really scary…."
In the original Minecraft, he felt the most terrifying creature was the Ghast, but the Ghast's sound was just a bit unpleasant, and after seeing them many times, they even felt a little cute.
He stepped on the deep purple ground, which exuded an evil aura, with a large number of purple particles evaporating into the air.
Holding a long spear, he cut the flying Eater of Souls into pieces.
The Eater of Souls looks very much like a primitive cell from the first stage of the game Spore, not only having flagella but also a huge mouth for eating.
Walking to a crack in the ground, he jumped in without any hesitation.
The whistling wind filled his ears; the depth of this fissure leading underground far exceeded his expectations.
Landing on the ground, Yang Tao looked at the underground world and thought, "This must be three or four hundred meters deep, right?"
The underground was pitch black, without a trace of light; this time, he didn't take out a torch but directly activated night vision.
Instantly, the pitch-black cave became brightly lit.
A large number of monsters had already flown silently to his side.
Yang Tao ignored these Eaters of Souls, who couldn't even break his defense, and took out the Red Matter Hammer, striking it on the ground.
With a bang, the cave floor expanded significantly, revealing a pearl emitting a faint glow.
Shadow Orb, a key item for summoning the Eater of Worlds; only three need to be smashed to summon the Eater of Worlds.
He flew over and directly used the Red Matter Hammer to strike the Shadow Orb.
As the sound of breaking glass rang out, an old-fashioned firearm and some ammunition fell out and flew into his body.
The surrounding Eaters of Souls continuously collided with his body, annoying him somewhat, so he took out the Red Matter Katar from his backpack.
Buzz.
A peculiar sound rang out, and the encircling Eaters of Souls had their health bars instantly cleared, dropping a large number of items.
It took two hammer blows, but Yang Tao also dug out the other two Shadow Orbs buried underground.
As the last orb shattered, a slight tremor began to emanate from underground, and it seemed to be accelerating.
"Too bad… there's no prompt message."
Yang Tao flew in the middle of the cave, his battle spear in hand, swinging so densely that nothing could pass through; the next moment, a giant worm emerged from underground.
Its huge mouth was large enough for Yang Tao to roll around inside.
The Eater of Worlds, one of the three early-game bosses in Terraria, its body is divided into many segments, somewhat similar to a centipede, and its body is covered with eyes, like countless Eaters of Souls connected together.
Puff, puff, puff…
The Eater of Worlds's charging speed was very fast, but its death speed was also fast; its head and body or tail could cause higher damage, but their defense was also the lowest.
Yang Tao's battle spear spun like an electric fan, which made the Eater of Worlds look like a sausage being fed into a meat grinder.
Massive amounts of gold coins and materials continuously emerged from the Eater of Worlds's head.
Yang Tao felt that the amount of money this guy dropped must be one of the best before the Wall of Flesh.
As the health of the last body segment was cleared, many items flew into his backpack.
Looking at this haul, Yang Tao couldn't help but murmur, "Should I… kill a few more?"
Under the blessing of the looting attribute, this Eater of Worlds was simply too 'rich.'
A night passed quietly, and Yang Tao took out a golden pocket watch to check the time.
7:00
'Time to go back for breakfast.'
Fortunately, there was Equivalent Exchange; otherwise, he wouldn't even have enough materials to craft summoning items.
By the time he flew back to the 'town' area, Harry and Dudley had already returned. The two of them were each holding a Zombie arm and happily striking at the various slimes that ran out of the forest.
The Zombie arm is a sword-type weapon dropped by Zombies; it looks like a complete Zombie arm, but its damage is decent, at least stronger than the Copper Shortsword and Copper Broadsword.
Yang Tao landed from the air behind Harry and asked, "How do you feel about this?"
Hearing his voice, the two of them dealt with the slimes in front of them, turned around, and said, "It's very interesting… except Dudley threw up twice…"
Dudley's face flushed red as he said, "I just had a bit of an upset stomach!"
"Alright, alright, it's your upset stomach."
Harry laughed off Dudley's comment, then summoned his Piggy Bank and took out some items from it.
"We found these things in a cave, sir, do you think they're useful?"
Yang Tao focused his gaze and saw that in Harry's hand, besides the shackles and Zombie hands dropped by Zombies, there were also some darts, potions, torches, and a herb bag.
It was clear they had discovered a cave on the surface.
He reached out and took the herb bag from Harry's hand, smiling as he said, "This thing is very useful to me; you can sell the others to the merchant…"
When Yang Tao landed, he had already seen the figure in the room on the second floor: a long-bearded man wearing a brown robe, none other than the merchant from the Terraria world… here, he should be called the Merchant.
"Alright, you two continue your exploration. If you have any questions, you can ask the Guide. I'm going to make some things first."
Harry nodded.
Yang Tao turned to leave. Dudley looked at Yang Tao's retreating back and said to Harry, "Harry, why don't we go explore underground? We haven't even reached the bottom of the cave we found last night!"
Harry considered it for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, but we have to be careful. Put this in your pocket, and if there's danger, immediately drink the Recall Potion."
"No problem."
Dudley also summoned his own Piggy Bank and took out a Spark Wand from it, while Harry picked up the enchanted Bone Sword.
Hmm… one warrior, one mage, no problem.
On the other side, Yang Tao took the herb bag to a room on the first floor that was full of 'furniture.'
Workbenches, tables and chairs, a Blending Station, a Sawmill, a Heavy Work Bench… it could be said that Yang Tao already had basically everything needed for the early game.
"Who said I have no talent for alchemy! It's just that the direction of alchemy in the Overlord's world was wrong!"
He shoved the herb bag into the Portable Transmutation Tablet, then directly exchanged for 10 herb bags and opened them all at once.
Looking at the herbs in his backpack, Yang Tao's face showed a wanton smile; today, he was going to make a potion, a potion that could be called explosive in all worlds.
Gender Change Potion.
After drinking it, males can become females, and females can become males.
Moreover, it's a permanent transformation; not even milk can reverse it.
It requires one of every type of herb in the Terraria world, making it extremely difficult to obtain.
However, he had the Transmutation Tablet.
Everything seemed incredibly simple.
