Chapter 1: Metaphysics Cannot Save Africans

The autumn wind is blowing, but the sky is cloudless. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After I and Akai returned to the Minecraft world from a business trip to the world of Ship's Mother, Twilight found that time had changed so quickly.

After a three-day trip to the world of the ship's mother, after coming back, it was already autumn.

There was no time for leisure, and we began a new round of farming while lamenting our toil.

Autumn is a fruitful season, and if we don't harvest the summer crops and plant a new one, the plan to harvest up to four times in the fall may become three.

"Hey, I always feel a lot more lonely."

I put the carrots I had just pulled out of the ground in my backpack, and although it used to be so deserted, I wanted our house to be a little more lively.

"I don't know what's going on over there with Ruyue, but I still feel a little worried." On the side, Akai also sighed.

As soon as the moon is gone, we return to the way we used to be, as long as we take care of this round of field harvesting, we will become a state of idleness.

Still, there are things that can be done!

"Shall I set out tomorrow to find the rubber tree?"

Akai finished his work, put all the wheat he had harvested into the box, and then suggested to me.

"Oh? Rubber trees, speaking of which, industrial technology seems to have been unlocked by us. "It was only then that I thought about technology, that is, industry.

Strictly speaking, what we unlocked in the underwater ruins is the second industrial technology, which is Industry 2.

Doesn't that sound a bit like a Renaissance or something?

"Well, if my old memories are not wrong, rubber trees are necessary for the development of industrial goods." I nodded, thinking about the relevant information in my mind.

[Rubber], this is the sacrificial thing of industry.

As the saying goes, tall buildings always start from flat ground, and even before they get up, they have to dig more than ten meters into the ground to build the foundation, and rubber is the source of industry.

Similar to the development model of real-world industry, rubber, raw rubber is the foundation of the foundation.

However, there are very few rubber trees that produce rubber in this world, and most of the vegetation is ordinary plants. In the current world of industrial activation, the plants and trees all over the world have been refreshed, but even so, we have to rely on luck to find rubber trees smoothly.

The trunk of the rubber tree is darker than the trunk of the ordinary oak tree, and if you are lucky, you can find a small hole like a tree hole in the trunk, from which the dark yellow resin of the rubber tree will flow out, and this is the rubber raw material we want.

But on the other hand, how to find rubber trees is a difficult problem.

Rubber trees hidden among countless trees, with a very similar color to other species and a scarce number, it is not easy to find.

"Go look for it, boy, I'll put everything there!" I gave Akai a thumbs up with a bewitching expression.

"This is a land ・・・・・・"

"Right!"

"Is there anyone in this world who has more power than us except world consciousness?" Akai continued to complain.

"Fame!"

"Just the two of us, reputation is not as useful as a bowl of rice."

"Wealth!"

"It's all over the ground."

"Anyway, go and look for it, rubber tree! And if you don't complain, I'll die! I slapped the box with both hands.

However, although rubber trees are hard to find, they still have a very 'distinct' characteristic.

The leaves of rubber trees are taller and more pointed than those of ordinary oak trees. I believe that with Akai's eye, it is not very difficult to find rubber trees in the forest.

"It's easy to say, so why don't you go with me to find it?" Akai stared at me with dead fish eyes.

I shook my head, "I've got to sow all the remaining seeds." Hey, it would be nice to have a wife at this time. "I suddenly began to sigh at my age, if I was in this life, I guess I would have been urged by my parents to get a girlfriend or something.

"Cut." Akai tilted his head and said disdainfully, "What are you fantasizing about now, I finally caught a moon on the sea, and I was sent back like this, and now you are complaining to me?" ”

"Isn't there no way to do it, okay, okay, let's go, boy, bring the rubber tree back as soon as possible, and we will be able to develop." I urged, interrupting the conversation decisively, and I would regret it if I continued to say more.

At that time, he left like this very chic, in order not to regret it. Otherwise, I guess I can't help but communicate with the world consciousness of the ship girl world, so that we can stay longer.

This 'longer time' is calculated in decades relative to our almost infinite lifespan.

It turns out that my choice is very wise, in just three days, the time of the MC world has passed quickly, I can't imagine if I stay longer, this side of the world will be in the vicissitudes again.

・・・・・・

The ore reserves of the family are rich enough, and the development of industry requires not only a large amount of rubber, but also a large amount of red stone, iron ingots, copper, tin and coal mines.

Although Akai didn't pay much attention to the useless redstone when he was usually mining, he still dug it back when he saw it, resulting in a large amount of redstone hoarded in our home, which is estimated to be about four figures.

As for iron, as long as industrial technology takes the first step, the production capacity of ore can be doubled, which can be regarded as the return of industrial technology after spending a lot of basic materials.

Compared with iron ore, tin ore and copper ore are more dense and extensive underground, almost to the point of digging everywhere.

"By the way, bring the scissors."

When I got home, I opened the glove box, took out a huge pair of scissors and handed it to Akai.

The Universal Scissors can not only shear sheep, but also cut leaves into building blocks and drop saplings.

"Yes." Akai took the scissors and began to pack his backpack.

Since Akai went out alone to look for rubber trees this time, it was impossible for him to come back in just a few days, although if he was lucky enough, he could find enough rubber trees in one day to bring back the saplings.

So, plenty of food, dry food, weapons and torches for lighting had to be prepared.

Although we have rarely explored the wild since we had a home, that doesn't mean we have forgotten the caveats of the wilderness. Anyway, with Akai's combat power, there won't be any danger that can threaten him, so I'm very relieved.

Afternoon.

"So, I'm going to go." Akai carried an ordinary bamboo bow on his back and nodded to me.

"If you see something worth bringing back along the way, just pick it up." I instructed that at all times we should fulfill the principle of not missing a pass.

As for why not bring the ender bow with you? Who will bring an artifact when they go to the wild to fight monsters? After the power is retrieved, even if it is empty-handed, Lushan Shenglongba can torture those little zombies.

After rechecking all the equipment, Akai waved his hand and chose a direction to walk slowly.

After looking at it for a while, I looked at the sky, pushed my glasses on the bridge of my nose, and began to think about what I should do next.

"After the seeds are sown・・・・・・ then collect the magic materials, and the evil aura in the extreme east, is that the former Eastern Plains not successful?"

In my thoughts, I began to count the rest of my journey.

"If that's the case, it seems that after [the compressor] is made, it will be necessary to make that thing."

――――――――――――――――I'm a dividing line――――――――――――――――

Three days later, somewhere in the wild.

In the countless dense forests, a figure kept shuttling with a very vigorous pace.

The intricate terrain was flat at Akai's feet, and even in order to save time and strength, Akai jumped directly to the top of the tree, jumping from tree top to treetop.

"No, no, not this one."

I kept searching, but I still couldn't find the shadow of the rubber tree.

"Impossible, am I going in the wrong direction, although there are woods in the southwest direction from home, but it is only a small grove of woods very close to home, it should be impossible."

For three days, Akai had been exploring in one direction, searching three forests on the way, but still couldn't find any trace of the rubber trees.

In the long run, even archers who call themselves hunters have limited patience.

Slightly irritated, he stopped, and Akai stood in a treetop, the forest around him silent except for the occasional birdsong. But this is only the appearance, in Akai's perception, the forest under his feet is full of vitality.

"Phew, it's useless to stay here, go on."

Shaking his head, Akai set off again.

・・・・・・

At home, I was lying on a chair on the balcony with nothing to do, drinking tea in the sea breeze, and a fireball in my hand was constantly changing shape.

The power of magic and the power of technology, either way, is a way to control the energy of nature. The longer the experience, the more cheerful people will be.

I can't help but think of the world where a certain sister is located.,Magic side and technology side.,If you have to distinguish between it.,Technology represents civilian life.,Magic represents high-level power.。

It's not irreconcilable, it's just that it needs a circular degree, that is, the protection of the environment.

Although it is simple to say, human greed is always the original sin, and if the so-called gods are still there, the gods who represent nature will be furious when they see the earth in the real world.

Just thinking about it, time passed bit by bit.

"It's really slow, that guy Akai, I knew that I should have pinched his fingers to calculate the direction for him first, but metaphysics can't save Africans, so forget it."

On the other side, Akai was still in a semi-frantic mood, searching for traces of the rubber tree.

"Damn, give me a minimap from the game!"
