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

but...

There's still a problem: how did he know how to address me?

Is there internet access here?

Even someone with a system like him can't access the internet.

However, he didn't dwell on his earlier act of encoffining evil. He wanted to contact the Grand Elder, and he meant no harm.

I'll just give way.

Shi Qian took two steps to the side and put away the trident as he did so.

Seeing the elder talking to Lian'e, Shi Qian decided to first take a look around the place and see how big this space really is.

As for the other etchers, they also began to move freely.

They weren't too bold; they just moved around instead of gathering together.

However, those whose energy was absorbed by Shi Qian... are still somewhat weak.

He still felt a little sorry for the other party, as he had meant well but ended up doing something wrong.

But at that time, we had finally found a glimmer of hope, and we couldn't just give up...

Let's see if I can find some time to do something to make it up to them...

I hope they are physically okay, otherwise I might really fall into a long period of self-blame.

...

After circling around, Shi Qian even used his climbing ability to run to the top of the tree.

But this forest is really not very big.

It is much smaller than Westmoon City, where the Etching People used to live.

I wonder if there are any restrictions on the space. If not, could we expand this area a bit?

Is giving the etchers more space to live... a form of compensation?

However, it's still uncertain whether it can be expanded. I'll have to go back and ask Captain Calamity.

Yes, even though Shi Qian knew his name was Lian'e, he still habitually wanted to call him Captain Calamity.

On his way back, a question came to mind.

If Lian E knew his "nickname," would he know about the existence of the system?

If I knew, would my status as a "time traveler" be exposed, and would it have any impact on me?

Shi Qian is still unclear about the other party's stance.

After all, he had only exchanged a few words with the other party since the beginning of this meeting.

I haven't even had a formal chat or conversation with the other person yet.

Based on the current situation...

Bringing these etched figures and himself into the flag must have been a wicked idea.

There's no one else here.

Moreover, the other party should actually be able to see what's happening outside.

He probably knew he wasn't in a good state at the time, but he was also eager to save people, so he took action.

So, will his actions affect him personally?

That's like competing with the system for players.

【system】

No matter where you see it, it is something that can only be described as "horrifying".

No one knows where they came from; they always appear in novels or movies.

It is powerful and has outstanding capabilities.

It even crushed the world it descended upon.

Shi Qian truly felt the power of its features; he has been using it for a long time himself.

Moreover, without a system, I estimate I would have starved to death on that plain long ago.

Travelers without an inventory cannot obtain blocks or food, and they also have to face hordes of undead creatures.

It's just waiting to die.

Lost in thought, Shi Qian returned to the open space.

When he came back, he was dumbfounded.

Because the etched beings have started farming...

They had seeds and hoes, which Shi Qian could understand, but where did the water come from...?

Those etchers didn't bring water, and there's no water source in this coniferous forest either.

Could it be the burial of an evil spirit?

Shi Qian shifted his gaze over there, only to receive a smile in return.

"Great Demon Lord~ I hope you don't mind if I borrow your water..."

"what?"

Shi Qian was a little confused, but his hands moved faster than his brain and he opened the system inventory.

He did have three buckets of water in his bag before, but when he opened it, he found there was only one left.

The two buckets of water that disappeared were naturally used to create an infinite water source for farming.

No, I can still use my system?

Shi Qian was truly dumbfounded.

However, at the same time, the level of vigilance against this captain of the Calamity Captain was raised.

I was initially quite pleasantly surprised to see him, but it wasn't so fun when he kept dropping bombshells on me.

Shi Qian was pulled aside by Lian E, avoiding the etched figures.

However, the etched figures were still somewhat curious about what they would talk about, and they looked over here.

Captain Calamity raised his hand and placed several blocks, separating the two of them from the Etched Man.

However, Shi Qian recognized the blocks that were released.

He had previously purchased the [Fungal Light Body] from the system shop...

I bought it when I was fighting a guild war with Ranxiao. I wanted to decorate the area under the throne so that others could see it clearly.

There were a few left over, which was exactly the number released by the evil spirit.

There are currently no photomicroorganisms in this world...

Those are blocks from hell, and the door... has not yet been found.

Shi Qian naturally knew what he meant by this trick; he was afraid that Shi Qian wouldn't believe him, so he deliberately used it in front of him.

But why?

That doesn't make sense...

Lian E never seemed to show any hostility towards him.

So, what was the purpose of this move?

The sky in this space remained slightly dark and overcast.

But not so dark that it's impossible to see clearly.

Those etched figures, on the contrary, felt more at ease here because there was no sunlight.

They were inherently at odds with the sun...

However, the few luminous organisms that Captain Calamity released still illuminated parts of the area, making people's vision clearer.

“I can see what’s happening outside, the outsiders.”

This sentence contains a lot of information.

Shi Qian's previous guesses have all come true.

The "outsiders" do not refer to other dimensions or realities, but rather to the original world of Shi Qian...

Shi Qian did not rush to respond, but waited for him to continue.

But Lian'e just stared at him, which made Shi Qian a little scared.

I found myself spontaneously starting to brainstorm...

What was his purpose in saying that?

Shi Qian really had no idea.

Because there's no reason.

Yes, there is no reason.

His actions resembled threatening Shi Qian.

But if he wanted to kill Shi Qian, he would have done so long ago.

There are opportunities in many places, and he also has a powerful tool like the time-travel system.

But Lian E didn't; he didn't make a move.

On the contrary, it was only after Shi Qian helped him at what he considered a critical moment that he began to show these things.

In other words, he didn't want Shi Qian to die.

But why threaten him?

It's wrong from the very first sentence, "the great demon."

Did he want Shi Qian to do something for him?

Indeed, Shi Qian believes that his current abilities are not weak.

Moreover, he still has a lot of energy points that he hasn't used, and he hasn't upgraded a lot of skills yet, so there's a lot of room for improvement.

Even if he doesn't upgrade his skills, there are still so many modules available in the system shop that he can buy.

He now has enough energy to buy some small modules.

After all, the monsters in each group diligently go out hunting every day to earn energy points for Shi Qian.

However, if it's for the purpose of modules.

Captain Calamity can use his own system, so he must have bought it himself a long time ago.

Why wait until now?

Shi Qian suddenly thought of something...
