【Railroad Tracks】

This is a very important part of Minecraft. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It can be said that most of the traffic on the road, even at sea, depends on the railroad tracks.

Rails are non-solid blocks made from sticks and ingots crafted from a crafting table, and are used to provide a path for minecarts. To use it, lay it on top of an opaque block.

In addition, the rails can be automatically adapted to each other and then linked to adjacent rails.

With this characteristic, the railway can climb between the height of one meter.

However, whether the minecart can climb up is a question.

Both in the real world and in this half-game-like world, roads and traffic are taken seriously in almost every world.

Good transportation means being able to move supplies quickly and manpower to be transported. Connecting villages to villages, villages to towns through good roads. In this way, travelers don't have to worry about getting lost, and the village can be quickly rescued by monsters.

Rails can be mined manually from the ground without tools, but they can be pryed off the ground very quickly with a pickaxe, and slightly faster with a sword than without tools at all.

In addition to the normal rails, there are also [Powered Rails] that resemble orbital accelerators.

Powered rails, as the name suggests, are dedicated tracks for acceleration, which are expensive and require a large amount of gold and a small amount of redstone.

At such a huge cost, the effect is also significant, inserting the powered rail into a normal rail, and after applying redstone electricity, the powered rail can be activated.

When a minecart passes by, the speed of the automatic minecart will be accelerated to a limit. It's like a speeding train, from a slow classic car to a galloping feeling.

However, this acceleration disappears after a further distance, and the minecart slowly slows down to its original constant speed.

In addition to the Charged Rail, there is another type of Activator Rail.

This special track is usually used to pause and launch minecarts, and is also activated by a redstone signal before it can be used.

In addition to the rails that make up the main part of the railway, minecarts are also indispensable.

Unlike the small one-man minecart in the game, the minecart on the two railroads in front of us is about two meters long and one meter wide, which is theoretically enough for me and Akai to ride in one minecart.

The crafting method of minecarts is very simple, and it is basically the same as that of ships. The only difference is that the planks are used while the minecart uses iron ingots.

"So, what to do? If we ride on different tracks separately, we won't be able to take care of each other if something happens. "I thought about it, and the way home was close in sight, but I was still very calm. Because it's a must, it's my style to be thoughtful.

Akai rubbed his eyebrows, "In that case, then we'll transform another minecart." ”

I also understand Akai's thoughts, after all, when we used to play games together, we were still quite familiar with the railway, naturally, and we all knew some of the skills in it.

Minecarts, like rails, have many branches.

A normal minecart can be further modified to become a special minecart for other purposes.

I placed the workbench on the ground, and Akai pried the minecart off the rail on the right, and the huge minecart suddenly turned into a miniature model and floated in Akai's hands.

"Well, I need a stove too." I nodded, took the minecart and said to Akai.

"It's easy." Akai looked around at the walls.

Since the Ender King didn't clean up the surrounding minerals when he built this passage, there is a lot of underground ore exposed in front of our eyes, and naturally, coal mines occupy the majority, followed by iron ore.

What we need to do now is to transform an ordinary minecart into an existence called a [Power Minecart].

The way to do this is as simple as making a stove out of stone, then placing the stove on top of it in the crafting table, and the minecart can be easily put down.

It's easy to guess what a powered minecart does, combined with its material and its name, and is a special booster used to power a normal minecart. Unlike powered rails, powered minecarts can be started by simply throwing coal or charcoal into them. Until the fuel is depleted, the powered minecarts will all move at a constant speed towards the rails, and will be able to propel up to three minecarts in front of them.

Of course, there are also [Minecarts for Transporting] that are specially used to transport items, and there are also minecarts (River Harmony) that are used to blow things up, and so on.

In half an hour, we collected into our backpacks all the coal and iron we could dig, which were necessary for us to make tools and fuel.

"Almost." I wiped a handful of sweat from my head, and the magic agitated, and the gusts of wind agitated and brought a hint of coolness.

After all, this is underground.

Akai placed the powered minecart behind the normal minecart and nodded to me, "You're all set." ”

"Let's go, then." With that, I jumped into the minecart, followed by Akai.

"Although only one person can sit in the game, but now I suddenly realize that even two people can ride this minecart." Sighing again at the difference between the game and reality, I gestured to Akai.

"Departure !!" Akai threw a coal into the powered minecart behind him. With clouds of black smoke, the powered minecart lived up to our expectations and began its work.

Gradually, the minecart moved.

Reaching out, Akai and I bumped fists, and as long as we had completed this long road, we would be able to get home.

It's not exciting, it's not calm, after all, it's great to have someone to help us when you're away from home.

Even for this reason, the ender dragon is something we must crusade against.

――――――――I'm a dividing line――――――――

Although the road is flat, it is just a straight line that stretches into the distance. But we inevitably ran into trouble.

When the Ender King and his men were digging this tunnel, it was clear that they didn't take into account the fact that Akai and I were still human.

That's right, we are human beings, and since we are human beings, then light is something that must exist.

However, in this deep underground railway, there is not a single thing, not even a torch stuck on the side of the road!

"I'll go, I'm kidding! So dark? Akai raised the torch in his hand even higher.

The minecart we were riding in became the only mobile light source in the dark railway.

What a scary feeling・・・・・・

"Ahh Grumbling, I sighed and leaned back against the side of the minecart.

By the way, the interior of the minecart is so large that we can hide it all.

"It's a tragedy." Shaking his head, Akai took out a thread from his backpack and tied the torch to the edge of the minecart.

"Huh?" Suddenly, Akai seemed to hear something, as if something was flying towards us, and Akai narrowed his eyes.

In the next second, Akai suddenly lowered his body and hid in the minecart.

Shout!

An arrow stuck squarely next to my head, and the minecart shook, and I broke out in a cold sweat.

"Damn, what's going on?!" Pulling the arrow down, I asked Akai.

"Damn, such a long tunnel, it's still pitch black, how can there be no monsters, careless." Akai gritted his teeth.

I was instantly on guard.

The powered minecart continued to propel the minecart we were riding, moving forward at a speed of about five meters per second.

Akai and I carefully grabbed the edge of the minecart and looked ahead.

In front of me, a white head, as the minecart moved, passed by, and was left behind by our minecart. And our eyes also look backwards.

Syllable! I put one hand on my forehead, "Do we have to sweep all the way through?" This kind of visual range is very close to us even if we find monsters. ”

"Well, aren't you a magician?" The implication is that I have to find a way, right?

Still, there is a way.

A flame ignited in my hand, and a fireball was hurled at the wall in front of me, and with a bang, it temporarily ignited a wall, and the flames attached to it.

"Anyway, let's light it up first."

Small fireballs streaked through the deep passages, illuminating the darkness and revealing all the ghosts in the darkness.

There aren't a lot of zombies and skeletons, we just need to be aware of the monsters that stand in our tracks.

Minecarts have a feature that if there is an obstacle in front of them (whether it's a mob or a solid block), the minecart will be forced to stop, and we can't afford to let these monsters delay our time.

Next, it's time to guard the railroad and clear the wilderness.

For a while, the underground passage, which was originally quiet and only had the sound of powered minecarts operating, suddenly became lively.
