What if the Terrans really are saving the world?

Chapter 18 Boulder Trap

Terra was seeing this kind of mechanism for the first time, and found it quite novel.

However, the others panicked.

Bahrain scratched his beard: "What are we going to do? How do we get back?"

The mage Mana crouched by the door: "If all else fails, let me try to unlock the magic lock on the door."

"No, no, no, Master, please stop using your supernatural powers," said Lagon.

Terra looked puzzled: "Why go back the way we came? Why not just keep going forward?"

Anyway, I just got the memory potion, so drinking it will take me back to the bed.

As for the NPCs, they were simply teleported back after the houses were reassigned.

Bahrain: "Tara is right. Let's keep going and see what happens. If we really can't find a way out, we can come back."

The group regrouped and continued deeper into the corridor.

After walking a few steps, Bahrain, who was at the front of the group, suddenly heard a "thud" under his feet.

"Huh? What is it?"

Bahrain looked down and noticed a small, slightly dented square on the stone slab.

"pedal?"

Hurry, hurry, hurry!

From the darkness ahead in the corridor, several arrows flew rapidly towards them.

The arrow whistled sharply as it flew straight over the dwarf's head, aimed directly at Mana behind him.

"Eeeeeeee—!" The mage Mana let out a short scream and dodged to the side, but was pulled into the arms of the sharp-eyed Andrea, and the two rolled to the ground.

Lagon, who was behind them, was too big to dodge in time, so he simply lay down on his back with a thud.

The other four escaped unscathed, but the one who suffered the most was Terra, who was multitasking and organizing her backpack.

"I say, let's go back." Mana hugged Andrea's waist.

Having dodged the first two arrows, the third arrow struck him in the head, knocking him back a short distance with a "Oh~" sound effect.

This arrow blew off most of his health and also poisoned Terra, causing her health to drop by drop every second.

Terra quickly drank a healing potion, set up a campfire, used the campfire to boost her health regeneration, and then sat down to accelerate her healing.

Fortunately, Terra had just opened the box and found the Dead Man's Sweater, and was also wearing Hermes Boots which gave her 4 points of defense. She also ate Stewed Rabbit which gave her 2 more points of defense, otherwise she would have been shot to death by an arrow.

Mana looked at Tara, who was covered in green, with the arrow still stuck in her head. She touched the arrow's fletching, and it wobbled up and down. "Are you alright?"

"It's okay, I'll get my blood back up."

What does it mean for blood to return to normal?

Brother, you have an arrow stuck in your head!

Seeing Terra, this "doll," get injured, even though it had nothing to do with her, made Mana feel a pang of heartache.

Turning to look at the elf, she felt that the other's reaction was even less intense than hers; it was just a simple expression of concern.

Lagon stood up: "It seems this site can't be treated half-heartedly anymore. I'll take it seriously then!"

"Master!"

"What do you mean, Captain? Do you want to do that?" Mana immediately straightened her back and placed her hand on her staff.

Ragon nodded, his voice becoming serious: "That's right, use that formation. I'll be the striker, and Bahrain will cover my flanks."

"Terra is in the middle, which makes it easy to manage."

"Mana and Andrea 1, stay at the rear of the formation and provide support! Report any enemy attacks from behind immediately!"

"Did you all understand?!"

Mana immediately replied, "Yes, Captain!"

Andrea 1 responded with a confused "Oh".

"These two..." Balin sighed and took out a short-handled axe as well.

"Good! Very spirited!" Lagon nodded in satisfaction as he saw the group set up their formation, then turned to face the corridor ahead.

"go ahead!"

Lagon, who was at the head, took a step forward.

despair.

……

……

Ragon turned his head with a serious expression: "We're doomed."

Mana: "Hey! What's going on?!"

Rumble rumble rumble—

Behind the group, a sound accompanied by vibrations came from afar.

The moment they turned around, everyone froze.

Deep in the corridor, a huge boulder is rolling toward us.

It filled the entire corridor, and as it rolled over the ground, the stone slabs shattered, gravel flew everywhere, and the whole corridor shook.

"run!"

Everyone, run forward quickly.

Terra smiled with relief.

"The boulder has finally arrived."

Otherwise, how would we know this is Terraria?

Terra quickly pulled out blocks and built a wall behind her to block the corridor.

The rolling stone crashed against the wall with a deafening roar, and dust fell in a flurry.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Mana collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath: "Well, I'm saved..."

But he didn't finish his sentence.

Suddenly, the ceiling above them cracked.

A second boulder suddenly fell.

It crashed vertically to the ground.

Directly below is Terra.

puff.

A sound like a hammer smashing mud came from behind.

Terra, who was just laughing and saying all sorts of strange things, was instantly torn to pieces in front of the four people.

Bright red body parts rolled down and scattered at everyone's feet.

The head part even had an arrow stuck in it, and its eyes were open.

A gray stone tombstone burst from Terra's corpse.

The tombstone spun in the air, rolled a distance, and then landed with a thud on the ground.

The tombstone reads: "Terra's internal organs have become filthy."

Around the tombstone were several pixelated silver and bronze coins, which bounced a few times on the ground and then remained still.

"Huh?"

Everyone was completely taken aback.

Before anyone could react, the boulder that had crushed Terra suddenly rolled toward them.

The four people had nowhere to hide in the narrow corridor and could only keep running forward.

Mana and Balin were quickly crushed by the arriving boulders.

Next is Lagon.

Andrea ran desperately away from the boulder, but what she saw in front of her filled her with despair.

That was a wall; this corridor used to be a dead end!

She leaned against the wall, watching the rolling stone draw closer, its surface still adorned with scraps of Bahrain cloth and scales of Lagun.

"No!"

She instinctively reached out to try to push him away.

The boulder rolled over.

*

Is this the end?

She was so unwilling to accept it. She hadn't done anything yet, so how could she have died so absurdly?

Looking around, all that remained was darkness.

She thought she would feel immense pain before she died, but instead of excruciating pain, she felt an indescribable gentle caress from the darkness.

A sense of peace washed over her, like warm water flowing over her body, dispelling all negative emotions, and she couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

Is this the world after death?

But from whom did this gentle touch come? In a daze, Andrea seemed to see her mother in front of her, smiling and stroking her head.

It's been a while since I've seen my mother.

This time, it seems I'll never be able to see my mother again.

Will she still wait for me at the village entrance every day?

Thinking of this, she felt her vision blurring.

Looking at her mother's blurry figure, she murmured softly.

"Mommy~"

The moment she finished speaking, the gentleness vanished. She frantically reached out to touch something, only to find a soft texture.

Andrea 2 opened her eyes with a start. What appeared before her was not her dead mother, but the mage Mana 1, whose chest she was holding.

Her body is now lying on Mana1's lap.

"Huh?"

She instinctively pinched it again, then realized what she was doing and hurriedly withdrew her hand.

Beside them, the intact Bahrain 1 and Lagun 1 were watching this side.

Andrea 2 hasn't figured out what the current situation is yet.

Am I not already dead?
