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

This time, Shi Qian did not choose the plains or look for the mine, because the mission location was next to the forest biome.

Creepers spawn here during the day, so don't worry about going blind and not being able to see them.

Shi Qian had also had enough of the night and the darkness of the cave.

After waiting and searching for a while, Shi Qian finally found a lone Creeper.

It's still the same routine: digging holes and trimming toenails.

Because it's a forest, Creepers won't have to run very far, so it's relatively convenient.

Monster defeated: Creeper

[Gained Ability: Area Explosion]

"Wow—finally, they've come up with something that can actually be lethal."

While poison can also cause the target to lose health, it is still too slow at present, and the cooldown time is long.

A non-lethal attack on a single target can only slow down the enemy.

Shi Qian couldn't wait to click on the details.

【范围爆炸1级：消耗自身血量上限的50%进行一次以自身为中心4*4*4范围的爆炸，冷却时间60秒；或消耗自身血量上限的90%进行一次以自身为中心5*5*5范围的爆炸，冷却时间120秒】

[Note: Cannot break stone blocks; damage is halved in water]

[Upgrade by consuming 3000 energy points]

"Wow~ This ability is great, it gives you two options, but it's so expensive."

The Creeper's Explosion and the Cave Spider's Web Bind are now the same price, both unlocked for 700 points, which he can't afford right now.

An area-of-effect damage ability is undoubtedly very attractive to Shi Qian right now.

"I still have to grind monsters..."

Shi Qian wanted to go back to the spider spawner, but he had forgotten the route.

We can only follow our memories in that direction.

Because it was night when we went down into the mine, we went straight to our mission after we came out.

As a result, Shi Qian didn't manage to remember many of the landmarks, which gave him a bit of a headache.

It's daytime now, so we can't farm monsters on a large scale.

The energy gained from killing creatures is too low, so it's not worth it.

But now it seems we can only look for animals in the plains.

Shi Qian sighed and slowly walked towards the plain, hoping to encounter a mine along the way.

But things didn't go as planned, and they didn't find any cave entrances to go underground until they reached the plains.

"Is this the fate that we're destined to have to chase after animals all day?"

Shi Qian fought the pigs, cows, and sheep for more than half an hour, and then, seeing his pitiful energy level, he finally lay down.

Despite having skill assistance, the attack power is still low.

He couldn't afford to spend extra energy points to buy that ridiculously expensive sword, and Shi Qian was going crazy.

But there is always a way out.

While hunting animals, Shi Qian discovered three players.

They all look like newbies, and they seem to be looking for something.

Looking at his balance, Shi Qian thought for a moment, then switched to a wooden sword, intending to take down these three newbies directly.

Avoiding eye contact, Shi Qian circled around to the back of a slope not far behind them and observed them.

"Is that strange mine that the forum was talking about located around here?"

"It should be."

"Didn't that player say he went down through another passage? Is it okay for us to just dig down from here?"

"Who cares if it's suitable or not? I only have a pickaxe with me, so I'll just go for it."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Shi Qian was overjoyed when he heard what the three of them were doing.

The strange mine shaft, possibly an abandoned mine tunnel, is right below here.

Moreover, all they had were pickaxes; what were they there to see in the abandoned mine tunnels?

They were no match for Shi Qian at all.

Without thinking any further, Shi Qian rushed over after watching the three of them start digging.

Use a spider web to bind the player furthest away, and inflict a poison effect on the player in the middle.

Then he began to focus on the opponent in front of him with a jumping attack.

Despite their best efforts to resist, the three players could not escape their fate of death.

"Players are definitely better; they give more."

Shi Qian was amused as he looked at the remaining energy value that had jumped up.

【Ding--】

"Ok?"

[Congratulations, host, on your first autonomous kill of a player]

You have received a new player gift pack, which has been added to your system inventory.

Shi Qian's face turned green after he opened the gift package.

"What a ridiculous setup! Why are they only giving me this now?!"

For no other reason than that the newbie gift pack contains just too many items.

500能量值、已获得技能解锁次数*1、血量上限+5、20耐久铁剑*1、面包*20。

Because newbie gift packs are usually given after completing newbie tasks.

However, after Shi Qian completed the newbie tasks, he only received a system upgrade and there was no gift pack at all. Instead, he was deducted 100 energy points.

This led him to believe that his own system was a complete rip-off and didn't offer a newbie gift pack.

The fact that it was discovered by chance was a pleasant surprise for Shi Qian.

500 energy points can directly unlock a skill that cannot be upgraded.

They also gave us an item that allowed us to freely choose which skills to unlock.

In other words, Shi Qian can now unlock two favorite skills at once, and he can use the energy he had saved up to exchange for items in an emergency.

While doing quests, Shi Qian found that the rope and sweet berry bushes were really useful, but if players had to buy them every time they fought, it would be a bit too much for him, given his lack of skills.

Now we can save some energy to exchange for items.

His maximum health and iron sword are also very good, which increases his survivability. When fighting players, he no longer needs to worry about his remaining durability.

With the addition of these breads, it could be said that Shi Qian suddenly became wealthy.

After checking the skills he needed, Shi Qian exchanged energy points for the spider's vertical walking ability and used an item to unlock the Creeper's area explosion.

After changing it, I couldn't wait to try out the 50% health explosion.

bang——

A 4x4 crater appeared around Shi Qian, which just destroyed the player's loot.

"It's a bit of a pity that a level 1 explosion can't blow up rocks, otherwise you could blast your way down to the mine tunnel to farm monsters."

Once his health was fully restored, Shi Qian couldn't wait to start the next mission.

【Ding--】

You have a new "Kill Me?" order pending processing.

[Target location has been located, navigation is enabled, please eliminate the target as soon as possible]

"Wow, it's not far this time!"

Shi Qian looked at the map and found that the target location was in the forest he had just come from.

Although it wasn't the route he took to get here, it wasn't too different.

After checking the contents of his backpack and the skills he already possessed, Shi Qian rushed over without stopping.

After all, completing tasks also gives you energy points, although not much, but it's definitely better than fighting animals.

Thinking about how much time he had wasted waiting for people at the previous mission, Shi Qian wanted to slap himself a few times.

"Why waste your time on something else? Why do you have to grow taller with the weeds?"

Shi Qian, who kept pushing himself, felt like he could run faster.

Before long, they arrived near the mission objective and began to survey the terrain.
