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

After Shi Qian and the sea turtle left the canyon, they kept heading southeast on the minimap.

Since he didn't need to communicate with the turtle, Shi Qian kept thinking about what the dolphin had just said.

After the dolphin finished speaking, he felt the system improve.

However, it wasn't easy to bring up the system panel at that time.

Now we can see what caused it; it seems to be inside the backpack.

After searching around, I found it was that book.

[Stories Beyond the World]

The previous "You do not have permission to read" message is no longer displayed when I click on it.

Opening the backpack interface, I found the text to be extremely familiar.

Isn't this the history told by the dolphins?

After reading it, Shi Qian realized that he had indeed memorized every single word the dolphin said.

so...

Is this actually a notebook that automatically records meeting minutes?

It automatically records historical events, right...?

After all, the dolphin said that the last time humans came, the ice was frozen.

That happened a long time ago.

If we follow the timeline, then it should have happened before the game started.

However, if this really happened, where did those "humans" come from?

After all, that style is nothing like a player.

Players aren't as friendly as the big dolphin makes them out to be.

Besides, there's something odd about this book...

But with Brother Turtle right next to me, it doesn't seem right to just take it out and look at it.

Let's talk about it after the new factions are separated.

Shi Qian took a look at the cube that the dolphin had given him, wondering what it was that looked both familiar and unfamiliar.

The backpack shows that this block is called [Sea Crystal].

Moreover, this aquamarine is slowly changing, its color cycling slowly between aquamarine, green, purple and indigo, different from the previous second.

"If this is aquamarine... then what about the aquamarine I've seen before?"

They look different, but their color-changing properties are exactly the same.

This block has no cracks, meaning it doesn't show any signs of being mined like cobblestone.

If that's the case...

The sea crystals in the underwater temple should actually be called sea crystal round stones, right?

However, didn't the dolphins say that they don't have digging capabilities?

So, where did this piece of sea crystal come from?

And, where did those water-bearing rocks come from at the junction of the canyon and the ice layer?

Those are clearly man-made traces, or rather, traces of marine engineering.

It wasn't generated naturally, nor could it have been added specifically during the core fusion process.

The dolphin certainly didn't tell the whole truth.

However, there shouldn't be any problems with the core parts, since we rely on this to solve our survival issues.

Lying about this is tantamount to not leaving yourself any way out.

Shi Qian knew that some creatures had inventory slots, so he wasn't surprised that they could pull out blocks for themselves.

But why use bubbles?

Could this be some kind of innate ability of beings in this dimension...?

And what about that god? There isn't a single word about god in the main world.

God is everywhere in this dimension.

He expressed doubt about the claim that the Heart of the Ocean is the eye of God.

However, he wasn't doubting the authenticity of the eyes, since he had indeed witnessed the Heart of the Ocean transform into eyes.

He doubted "God".

It's not about existence, but about rationality.

Why would a god who created dimensions simply run away when those dimensions collapsed?

Shi Qian didn't believe that any god would do such a thing.

Because of that moment when the eye opened when the door was opened.

There was no sense of "god".

Shi Qian didn't know why he felt that the eye wasn't a god, but he just trusted his intuition.

After all, he's always been very lucky, and his intuition is always accurate.

It's probably some very powerful creature that hid itself inside the Heart of the Ocean.

Because of the core integration, the ocean is no longer the ocean, and the snowfield is no longer the snowfield.

The creature ran away when it realized it couldn't survive, and ran to the ocean in the main world.

Does it depend on something in the ocean to survive?

Shi Qian felt that he could go and find a few Hearts of the Ocean to conduct experiments and see what they were all about.

There is another doubt.

When I opened the door, I tried so many things related to the ocean.

Finally, the investigation led to the drowned corpse.

But there are no drowned corpses here...

The dolphin said it had never seen any humanoid creatures, and this dimension was like this before the portal appeared.

This means there are no zombies here, and no drowned corpses either.

Moreover, Shi Qian has been here since he entered the door.

We still encountered quite a few low-light areas suitable for monster farming.

He also specifically waits for monsters to respawn.

However, none of the attempts succeeded in getting it to refresh.

The first canyon has water, but no dolphins.

Sufficient conditions for the generation of drowned corpses.

However, the same thing happened; the drowned corpse didn't appear during the short time he was there.

Based on the information about the giant dolphin, the hostile creatures here should spawn regularly next to the Boiling Spring.

They might not even refresh; the total number of monsters is fixed.

I don't know if I can gain abilities by killing monsters in this dimension.

But none of this has anything to do with drowned corpses—

I haven't even seen a nautilus shell here.

Why can the portal react with the nautilus shell?

The water rippled in circles; it wasn't an illusion that he was thrown into the air.

At that time, he thought this dimension was full of drowned zombies, like the Drowned Zombie Family, Drowned Zombies vs. Guardians, Pirate Drowned Zombies, and so on.

Shi Qian had already come up with eight hundred different scenarios in his head.

But now, there isn't a single drowned corpse here.

It can even cause a person's CPU to overheat.

But if we really have to argue about it...

The Surge Core will attack any drowned corpses that get close, and the door was ultimately opened using the Surge Core.

Furthermore, no drowned corpses spawn near the portal.

That's a reason, I suppose.

Shi Qian put the issue aside.

This was, after all, a dimension he had never heard of before, and he was a complete newbie in this world.

but...

It seems that this world may not necessarily lack a lower realm.

According to the humans in the story...

They can only open one door in one dimension.

Moreover, it cannot be moved.

The rebuilt portal is unusable, and this isn't the first or second time.

That means they may have previously tested and found a portal to the Nether.

However, as time passed, those portals, like the one at the bottom of the sea, were buried and hidden.

Moreover, because it had already been opened, no matter how Shi Qian built the door himself, it would be useless.

So, all he needs to do from now on is find these doors that have been opened.

Furthermore, he doesn't seem to need to go to the mortal realm to go through the normal game process.

Once you find the End Gate, you can go straight to slay the dragon.

Killing the Ender Dragon would be a piece of cake for him.

but...

So many doors mean there are several sub-dimensions.

Each door may have only one coordinate for the next door.

I wonder how many doors I'll have to go through to find the End.

Shi Qian followed the sea turtle as it swam among the ice floes until the monotonous puddles and ice blocks were no longer in front of him.
