Crash...
In the bathroom filled with mist, Kevin was enjoying the warm water comfortably.
Although there is magic in Orario, taking a hot bath is not as difficult as it was in the Middle Ages.
But in terms of enjoyment, it is definitely not as convenient as modern society.
"When I explore hell, I'll use lava to boil my bath water."
After relaxing, Kevin began to have wild thoughts.
There are still several hours before nightfall, so it's a good opportunity to rest.
He had cleared out all the zombies in the mansion and brought in people like Minami Rika who were outside.
"Laboratory turrets" are also installed on the walls and platforms of the mansion to ensure that no zombies will invade the interior.
After making all these preparations, all that is left is to wait.
Waiting for the night to fall, the bright red waning moon rises high in the sky.
"I didn't expect that my first experience of a 'blood moon' event would not be in Terraria."
"But we can't be careless."
While recalling the precautions of the blood moon, Kevin unconsciously fiddled with the water surface, making the bathtub ripple.
Just then, a timid voice came from the bathroom door.
"Um... Master, can I come in?"
"Lily?"
Kevin heard the voice of the person and asked in confusion.
"Your room has its own bathroom, too."
Saya's mansion is quite luxurious. It is a large European-style manor with all kinds of facilities.
Even the guest rooms have specifications and decoration comparable to the hotel's presidential suites, allowing guests to rest in peace.
Because of this, Kevin forgot one thing.
That is, Lily is not a person living in modern society at all, and everything here is full of unknowns to her.
"I almost forgot about this."
After realizing this, Kevin patted his head and called Lily in.
She was just wrapped in a white bath towel, but her hair was still dry, and she obviously didn't know how to use the appliances in the bathroom.
"Everything in this world is so magical."
Seeing Kevin fiddle with the "mechanism" on the wall and hot water gushed out, Lily's eyes widened with curiosity.
"Did you use some kind of magic stone item? But Lily didn't seem to sense any fluctuations in magic power."
"There is no magic in this world."
Kevin stretched out his hand to test the water temperature and said casually.
"These are all creations called 'technology'."
"oh..."
Lily had a vague understanding of the concepts of magic and technology, but she didn't need to understand such things.
"The water temperature is about right, you can wash here."
Kevin put on a bath towel and prepared to leave the bathroom.
However, Lily grabbed a corner of the bath towel, and Kevin turned around to see her looking at him with her watery eyes.
"Can't we take a shower together?"
"I can help the master with back scrubbing and... 'weapon maintenance'."
It would be unkind to refuse the girl's courageous invitation.
A moment later, Kevin returned to the bathtub, with a petite figure in front of her.
Fortunately, the bathtub here is spacious enough to easily accommodate two people bathing together.
Of course, it may also be that the size of the dwarfs does not take up much space.
"Many monsters will attack here tonight."
"But don't worry, I'm ready."
"You just need to complete your mission as a 'supporter' and collect as many 'blood beads' dropped by monsters as possible."
"Well, Lily remembered it all!"
Lily nodded seriously, then reminded with a blushing face.
"Master... your weapon seems to be in pain."
"Can I help you?"
Sensing Lily's movements, Kevin relaxed his body and closed his eyes.
"Well, take good care of it. After all, there will be a tough battle tonight."
Rest time is fleeting.
At Kevin's call, everyone came to the hall on the first floor of the mansion.
In fact, he didn't need to explain. The scarlet moonlight shining in from outside the door explained everything.
"The 'blood moon' has finally arrived, everyone."
Kevin's eyes swept over Minami Rika and others who had already signed the contract.
"Follow the instructions I gave you earlier and take your positions."
"With these turrets, the pressure from the monsters should be reduced a lot."
"But always be careful about whether there are enemies breaking through the defense line, and the threat of 'elite monsters'!"
There are several special elite monsters in the Blood Moon.
Before Hard Mode, the most common ones are "Zombie Groom" and "Zombie Bride".
The zombie groom's vitality is much higher than that of ordinary zombies, and his movements are more flexible. He can bypass obstacles and open doors.
The same is true for the Corpse Bride. These two special elite monsters have unique drops.
Among them is the event item that can actively trigger the "Blood Moon" - Blood and Tears!
There are also some fashions, such as top hats, veils and wedding dresses.
"I don't know what role fashion will play in the realistic world of Terraria."
After everyone has performed their duties and completed the tasks they are responsible for.
Kevin found that Saya Takagi was still there, at a loss.
"What do I need to do?"
Even though this was her home, it felt like she was the guest now.
"You don't need to do anything, just wait for the night to end."
Kevin spoke in a calm tone, as if the red waning moon hanging high in the night sky did not exist.
"But try not to go out to avoid accidents."
"You can find a room, close the door, and hide in a corner and count numbers silently."
"Hold on until about 7 a.m., and the effect of the blood moon will fade away."
Hearing this, Gao Cheng Saya looked at Kevin somewhat unwillingly.
"I want to sign a contract with you, too."
The latter was not surprised, but still gave a "kind" warning.
"You should know what this means."
"Yes...I heard about it from Miyamoto-san."
Saya gritted her teeth but made up her mind.
"I have nothing left. Joining your team will help me survive better."
It's a very rational conclusion, but perhaps also a bit emotional - such as the idea of not wanting to be left behind.
After signing the contract, Kevin assigned the function of "explosion expert" to Saya.
This function can open the "Explosives" store to purchase explosive props such as grenades, bombs, detonators, etc.
However, the price is relatively expensive, and only grenades are relatively cheap and affordable.
"Find a high point and throw grenades at the place where the monsters gather. You should be able to do this, right?"
"After all, this is your home, and you should be more familiar with the structure here."
"Okay... I understand."
After being assigned the task, Saya seemed to have unloaded some kind of burden and left Kevin's sight with easy steps.
"This guy might unexpectedly have the potential to be a masochist."
Shrugging his shoulders, Kevin also stepped out of the hall and came to the empty courtyard.
Unlike the others in charge of guarding the mansion, he will face the incoming blood moon monster head-on!
Not long after the blood moon rose, the turrets placed in different positions began to make frequent "whooshing" noises.
Blue lasers shuttled through the darkness, accompanied by the smell and sound of burning flesh.
"It's finally started…"
Kevin silently watched the tide of monsters with loose heads in the distance, his eyes emitting a faint light.
This is the result of drinking the [Night Vision Potion], which allows him to see easily even in dark environments.
Suddenly, Kevin's eyes focused and his brows gradually frowned.
Among a group of ordinary zombies, there were two enemies with very distinctive dressing styles.
Kevin recognized their identities at a glance - the zombie groom and the zombie bride!
However, the images of these two elite monsters are somewhat unexpected... but seem to be reasonable.
This zombie couple is Saya's parents who could not be found during the day.
Zombie groom "Takagi Soichiro" and zombie bride "Takagi Yuriko"!
"Wow... I think I know where Komuro Takashi went."
Seeing the way these two people appeared, Kevin couldn't help but feel sad.
"Isn't this guy the 'clown'?"
