Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Survival Player Homura Akemi and Redstone Player Saki Yoshida
In the world of blocks, Homura Akemi was carefully reading the game strategy given by Liu Yuan. The strategy book wasn't thick, only 55 pages, covering early survival construction, weapon and equipment crafting help, mineral distribution locations, and mining methods.
There was also a foolproof strategy prepared by Liu Yuan.
There are only a few steps to clear the game in Minecraft. The first step is to build a shelter to store items and sleep at night. The second step is to mine for diamonds. The third step is to go to the Nether to kill Blazes and get Blaze Rods. The fourth step is to gather enough Ender Pearls. The fifth step is to defeat the Ender Dragon.
The overall difficulty is very low. As he said, veterans can definitely clear the game within half a day. If someone is highly skilled, it's not a problem to kill the Ender Dragon within an hour.
However, since this was their first time playing the game, Homura Akemi and Saki Yoshida progressed relatively slowly.
They kept pace with each other initially. They cut down trees to make a crafting table and used a lot of wood to build a temporary hut. However, Homura Akemi wasn't very lucky. There were no sheep near the spawn point. When it got dark, Yoshida Saki had already fallen asleep in bed, while Homura Akemi was still working hard in the mines.
This game, even in real mode, has features that feel unrealistic. Returning to the spawn point after death, falling asleep in seconds, etc. These features make this game enduring and popular for many years.
Both of them used the fishbone mining method introduced in the strategy guide. The method was very effective. In a little more than an hour, they both found diamonds.
From here on, however, their paths diverged completely.
Homura Akemi was very anxious, and was in a hurry to treat her body. The sooner she recovered, the sooner she could reduce the burden on her family. Therefore, she played aggressively and had a natural combat talent. She became proficient after fighting various monsters a few times.
When she had iron armor, a diamond pickaxe, a diamond sword, and a bow and arrows, she went to the Nether to defeat Blazes and gather resources to kill the Ender Dragon.
As for Yoshida Saki, she was anxious about her "change" because she couldn't fit in at school and was bullied. But she was also not anxious because the game's environment was very good.
Just like the name of this game, My World, it was a world that belonged to her alone. (Literal translation in CN)
In this world, she could do whatever she wanted. Image? It didn't matter. She ran through this world with her hair down. The game didn't require glasses, so she could see more clearly.
When she found diamonds, she realized that rushing to complete the game seemed meaningless. It would be better to raise some animals. So, she raised two dogs, a cat, and even chickens, sheep, and cows in the backyard. Unfortunately, she didn't have potatoes or carrots, so she couldn't raise pigs yet.
But she prepared the breeding pigs. As soon as she got the plants, she could start planting.
Meanwhile, Homura Akemi was shooting arrows in the Nether, outrunning zombies, and escaping Skeletons. Even Ghasts were shot down by her arrows. She was surrounded and attacked by Zombie Pigmen, beaten by Piglins, and ambushed by Endermen.
All the enemies made her gradually stronger. The block characters didn't feel fatigue or pain. When they died, they simply respawned. She lived, but they still had to die. In constant battles, Homura Akemi's resources were quickly consumed. However, she became stronger and found the End Fortress. Now she only needed Ender Pearls to defeat the Ender Dragon.
The whole process didn't even last a day, but Homura Akemi felt like she had spent countless days and nights in the game.
On the other hand, Yoshida Saki's development gradually went astray.
She gave up fighting and killing because she felt it was meaningless. She was in a very happy state now. She had forgotten all her troubles and said goodbye to all her pain.
Although there were no other people, she had the dogs and cats she raised. This kind of farming life seemed not bad, but for farming, she felt she had reached her limit after only half a day of play. So, she started reading the redstone introductory guide.
"An item that can transmit redstone signals after being placed. A wooden stick and a cobblestone can be combined to form the most basic redstone tool, a lever. Pulling the lever can activate the redstone signal and turn the mechanism on and off. Okay, now that you know what redstone is, let's build a simple villager leg-breaking trading center."
"???"
Yoshida Saki rubbed her eyes hard. She read the guide again from the beginning and found that she wasn't mistaken. The guide was teaching what redstone is one second and then suddenly explaining how to build a villager based sweatshop and how to use villagers to obtain iron ingots, one of the most needed items for Redstone players.
At 7:50, when the computer notified them that there were five minutes left before the store closed, the two girls turned off the computer with excited smiles on their faces.
Back in reality, Homura Akemi recalled her experience in the game: mining, fighting, and what seemed like mechanical labor, but with inexplicable pleasure. Seeing more and more resources, watching enemies she couldn't beat being killed in various ways, and watching her home get better and better, this sense of accomplishment made her feel very comfortable.
"This game is so fun..."
Yoshida Saki felt the same as Homura Akemi. "Yes, it is!"
"Hey, how's your progress?"
"I'm not very good at fighting, so I'm learning redstone at home. Redstone is very interesting."
"As for me, I found the End Fortress, but all my resources are gone."
Homura Akemi felt heartbroken when she said that her resources were gone. Her diamond pickaxe and iron armor set had all fallen into lava and burned because of her mistake. Fortunately, there were some iron ingots left at home, which allowed her to gather resources again.
But this slowed down her progress.
"I'm so envious. I'm still figuring out how to gather resources..."
"Hey? How about we play together?"
"Together?"
"Yeah!" Homura Akemi suggested shyly. "I feel that I can handle the combat in the game, but I need more resources."
"Then I will provide you with resources, and you can handle the fighting!"
"Let's beat the game together!"
There is no requirement to play in real mode alone. If the relationship is good enough, you can play together. But so far, most people haven't focused their main experience on Minecraft.
Most people regard Minecraft as a warehouse and a place to retire.
There are really no people like Homura Akemi and Saki Yoshida who mainly play Minecraft and have the cheat sheets given by Liu Yuan himself.
So the two exchanged names and even contact information. The only pity is that they live in different worlds and can't continue to communicate after returning.
They can communicate on TT, but the price is a bit high.
