Minecraft: Is this still the Minecraft I used to play?

Chapter 240 Entering the door

Listening to his clone's constant chatter, Shi Qian was almost at the vicinity of the Crystal Empire's teleportation portal.

It was the first time he had ever realized that he could talk so much.

It’s simply outrageous!

Moreover, they share a single CPU, so there's no need to worry about missing the jokes; they completely understand each other.

This is somewhat reminiscent of daffodils...

However, this seems to be a good thing, as it solves the problem of having no one to talk to but also causing social anxiety.

Open the chat window and message Mo Niao that you're back.

Immediately afterwards, a series of bombings were received.

[Great!]

[But boss, why did you suddenly decide to come back?]

[Has something happened outside?]

[I guarded the gate very well! I didn't let a single monster escape!]

"Why is Mo Niao such a chatterbox..."

"It can only be said that she is just as good as Ran Xiao."

Shi Qian was at his wits' end, now having to deal with two waves of linguistic attacks from two different creatures.

Fortunately, I didn't need to respond too much. I sent Mo Niao a message saying I'd be there soon and would talk to her later.

Then I turned down the volume of the clone in my mind, leaving only 20%.

After nodding in satisfaction, he continued running towards the amethyst cave.

He completely ignored the frantic shouts of his various clones inside his head.

"It should have been like this a long time ago. What a miserable life I've been living before—"

It's so great to be able to handle things with a split-point perspective without having to keep up with five different viewpoints!

As soon as he emerged from underground, he was bumped head-on by Xiao Yi.

"Master! I missed you so much!"

Then came the simultaneous "Master!" from two students, both from the second and third years of university. Their voices were devoid of emotion, but one could still sense their anticipation.

It does seem like it's been quite a while, although it doesn't feel like that long...

"Boss, you've arrived!"

"Ah."

Shi Qian nodded and asked Mo Niao if any strange creatures similar to the witch had appeared recently.

The monsters from before are still in their original positions.

They were trapped here, and it could be said that their eyes had lost all light.

They're now at the point where they'd be willing to die for them.

After all, Mo Niao and Xiao Yi get along very well, and they are both quite talkative.

When they weren't patrolling or offline, they would sit in front of these monsters, either asking them all sorts of random questions or babbling on and on.

It's safe to say that even a normal living being would find it hard to withstand.

"Yes, they do, but every time we spot them, they disappear in the blink of an eye, like they've turned on a radar."

"Xiao Yi and I also went to check those locations, but there were no mines or other places to hide."

"And each time there are only a few people coming."

"They must be here specifically to monitor the portal..."

Shi Qian pondered for a moment, realizing that with only a few monsters around, it was possible to disappear instantly...

Something like a return-to-town device?

Clone No. 4 observed those monsters underground in the swamp and was able to use items and tools.

Now villagers are trading Ender Pearls.

This underground city in the swamp is clearly a "prehistoric" place, so it's not surprising that it has a large stockpile of Ender Pearls.

Town portals are easy to make; all you need are ender pearls, water, soul sand, and trapdoors.

In addition, Mo Niao had previously mentioned that those monsters had means of communication.

While their own monster group discovers them, they can certainly observe them in reverse.

It's quite quick to communicate and call for someone to put out the trapdoor.

But what's so noteworthy about a portal...?

"Call clone number 1."

"Received on the 1th."

"Let Big Bus and Little Four roam around too. Eleven years is probably aimed at all the portals."

"Yes, sir!"

"Isn't the Undersea Gate his old home after eleven years? Is there any need for him to visit it?"

"...But what about the energy core?"

Ignore the discussion that follows the creation of the clone.

The clone only needs to follow the instructions of the main body, but the main body has many more things to consider.

In plain language: Shi Qian is too lazy to listen; he's too busy.

Looking up and pulling away from the local area network, Shi Qian told Mo Niao that places like the swamp, jungle, and dark realm should be avoided if possible.

Ask him to inform the other players on the forum as well.

There are still quite a few strange places in the main world, and players should try to avoid them if possible.

Shi Qian doesn't consider himself to have any deep-seated antagonistic relationship with the players.

At best, I managed to become one of the big bosses at the very beginning of the game by using my connections.

After that, they simply disappeared without a trace.

He's not actually lacking in energy right now.

The energy generated from normal battles between monsters and players is enough for his daily needs.

As for upgrading his skills, he did set up several monster-slaying towers.

However, I didn't do it myself.

The structure was sent to the group chat, and Ran Xiaomo and a few others built it.

Let them farm monsters on their own, and incidentally replenish the monster group's manpower.

Although monsters with advanced thinking can still gain energy by killing ordinary monsters.

However, the conversion rate was too low, so he didn't bother to do it anymore.

It would be better to train troops.

The transformed undead players effectively compensated for this deficiency.

After the portal at the bottom of the sea was no longer required to charge an entrance fee, all the undead players were relegated to the monster-farming tower by him.

Undead players need to kill other players to level up their consciousness.

So there's no need to worry that they'll awaken their powers while fighting monsters and then run away.

However, Shi Qian did not become a capitalist entirely.

The group of undead players in the mob farm are not the same group that started out.

After a few days of grinding, Shi Qian will recall them and execute them all.

Lucky players are randomly selected in the Frozen Dimension and transformed into undead players for further distribution.

It's still quite humane.

Aside from energy levels, which are essential for his basic survival, he also needs energy.

He doesn't really have any grudge against the players.

...except for Feng Ning.

Therefore, it is perfectly acceptable for Shi Qian to give players a way to survive.

If it weren't for the fact that this world is full of truly villainous big bosses.

If you let him go out and show his face every day, he would actually be happy to do so.

After explaining the scope of what could be said to Mo Niao, Shi Qian entered the portal.

Players may give us some attention, but the portal is the real issue.

The jungle and the Dark Realm are both too strange.

He needs to find Old Dengxi 09 to check the information.

Because in Zero Nine Sequence's memories, these two dimensions are clearly not what he sees now.

Shi Qian's dizziness had not yet subsided.

A figure had already entered his radar.

As expected, Furong's voice came through.

"You're here."

It seems they had been waiting for quite some time.

"Could she have been staying here ever since we went out last time?!"

“You’ve figured it out. You probably forgot how long Furong stood here before Old Deng caught her.”

"Don't turn your knife on my main body later, that wouldn't be fun~"

Shi Qian resisted the urge to roll his eyes at his clone and stood up straight after the dizziness subsided.

He nodded to Furong in greeting.

"I need to discuss some information about the outside world with your monarch."
