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

Chapter 109 Explorers and the Achievement System

Ah Qi also fainted after entering the portal.

She only heard the system notification once; she was kicked offline before she could even hear it the second time.

After vomiting and logging back into the game, she finally looked at the title she had just earned.

Having played games for so long, this was the first time Ah Qi had ever heard of such a thing in this game.

A new slot has appeared in the backpack's equipment inventory, and this title is displayed there.

[Explorer]

[A unique account-bound title. Wearing it grants basic favorability towards native creatures across various dimensions. Non-aggressive behavior will prevent you from being classified as an enemy.]

After reading it, Ah Qi gleaned a bunch of key information from the details.

There are native organisms in each dimension.

Is there any conscious life in this new world?

NPC?

Having titles can increase your favorability with NPCs, which might mean you get discounts on items or something...

Ah Qi applied his thinking to other types of games he had played before, where NPCs were usually merchants or something similar.

It's no wonder she thought that way; the title and all that sounded too much like something out of an online game.

Another piece of information that Ah Qi read out was the opposing camp.

Players have already discovered that there are three major factions in the main world.

For players, hostile/neutral/friendly.

Hostile are monsters, neutral are creatures like bees and alpacas that won't attack unless attacked, and friendly are ordinary animals and the wandering merchant himself, who won't retaliate no matter how you attack them.

However, the faction divisions here are clearly not based on what is appropriate for the players.

Having a title will prevent you from being automatically categorized as an enemy faction by NPCs.

The dominant role here has become that of the NPC, not the player.

For NPCs, players may be directly classified as either neutral or hostile.

Having a title ensures neutrality; you won't get into trouble if you don't attack NPCs.

However, players without a title may be directly attacked by NPCs.

Ah Qi thought about it more deeply and understood.

If you explore the world normally and make plans on your own, you should be fine.

I just don't know when I'll be able to encounter native life forms from this dimension.

Like everyone else who enters the new dimension, she is faced with a world of ice and snow, layer upon layer of ice, and has no idea where to begin.

Take a screenshot while enjoying the scenery.

Congratulations on achieving the achievement "Hey! A Great Photo!" You can choose an image from your in-game screenshots, and the official team will enhance, print, and mail it to your helmet shipping address.

Achievement?

Ah Qi remembered that they seemed to have mentioned this thing back then.

The achievement system is hidden in the upper right corner of the backpack, above the crafting area, and is shaped like a trophy.

[Achievements: You can view your in-game achievements here. Different achievements may offer you some pleasant surprises.]

Ah Qi's current achievement panel only shows the achievement triggered by the screenshot; the rest is a grayish mosaic background.

Ah Qi thought for a moment, then logged off and posted the screenshot on the forum.

[A New Dimension]

It immediately attracted a large number of people.

Many players logged off immediately after hearing the system notification, waiting for Ah Qi's guide.

They were in the game's interior, too far from the ocean.

There are currently no other ways to enter the portal, and I'm not really willing to risk fighting the drowned zombies with Ranxiao.

If you can't win, you'll just waste time and lose equipment, so it's better to wait for the live broadcast.

Sure enough, Ah Qi immediately sent out the contents of that portal.

"So this is what the inside of the portal looks like? It's beautiful! Explore further and report back!"

"I didn't expect the strategy master to be the first person to enter the portal. I thought it would be the combat master."

"Why don't you start a live stream and explain in real time, otherwise waiting for the post is too slow?"

Ah Qi was just about to go back to the game when he saw this comment, and after thinking about it, he decided to give it a try.

She's never done a live stream before.

Each strategy involves a flash of inspiration – starting research – drawing conclusions – integrating information and tutorials – and then posting on the forum.

For players on the forum, her update frequency is actually quite fast.

But only she knows how much effort each strategy post takes.

Creating posts in this new dimension is definitely more difficult because it's a completely unknown new world.

Going live is also a good idea; it can attract fans, increase audience interaction, and the posts are easy to create.

You can just edit the video later.

So Ah Qi replied to this comment, "Great idea, let's start now."

He immediately started playing the game and turned on the live stream.

[A new dimension awaits you; welcome to the daily life of an explorer and strategy guide master.]

After adjusting the camera angle to a position above his shoulder, Ah Qi started walking.

"Give me a direction, everyone. I'm going that way."

"It looks like you can walk in any direction here. There's ice above and below, so there should be a place you can pass through."

Ah Qi is very popular, and many people came in as soon as the show started, while others came in by following the new topic.

After hearing Ah Qi's question, many people started leaving comments on the screen.

The comments scrolled so fast that even Ah Qi couldn't see them clearly.

Finally, I chose the direction with the most people.

During the session, he briefly explained to the audience what the title "Explorer" was.

As a guide writer, I definitely can't keep this kind of thing to myself.

Furthermore, Ah Qi shared his own conjectures, which only fueled the audience's curiosity about this unfamiliar dimension.

So far, only Ah Qi has appeared on screen; no one else has seen any other creatures.

Even beautiful snow scenes are becoming a bit tiresome.

Ah Qi has obviously noticed this as well, and she still hasn't found anything to make a strategy guide.

Apart from the ice, there was no other material available.

She decided to take a gamble and start digging directly.

Take out your pickaxe and start digging a tunnel on the spot, using the one-block mining method.

Because this place is basically all ice, and the bottom layer of ice in each layer can be broken down to melt into water.

There was no need to fear falling and getting hurt; I just went straight through.

Ah Qi had been wearing a sea turtle shell in the sea and hadn't taken it off. Now he was completely submerged in the water, so he didn't need to go out to breathe, which was very convenient.

After digging through countless layers of ice, Ah Qi finally found a block that wasn't made of ice.

A glowing blue object that doesn't drop anything after being dug up with a pickaxe.

Ah Qi tried several different tools, but none of them fell.

Finally, looking at the items in my backpack, I thought for a moment and combined them into a pair of scissors.

Deep blue-green algae clusters

It looks like a square, like a leaf.

Ah Qi placed the clump of deep blue algae into the newly dug water pit.

I want to see if it will directly block the water or turn into a water-containing block.

Game features are also part of the strategy guide.
