Chapter 1 Cutting Trees, Brushing Stones, and the Origin of the Sky Island
Fang Yuan never thought that as a senior MC building master, he would fall headlong when repairing the main building in the server.
Although this is a VR version of the MC, but after all, it's a game, so it should be able to be resurrected, right?
Yes, he was resurrected, but on an empty island with no eye on the horizon, and most importantly, he couldn't quit the game from this island!
The exit from VR games is as simple as unplugging the VR headset on your head, and there is no difficulty at all.
But Fang Yuan fumbled for a long time, only to find that there was nothing at hand that could be pulled out, where did the helmet come from? Only the man-tall grass next to him could hold onto it.
"But...... If it's not a game, what is this box? In front of Fang Yuan, there was a box suspended like an inventory, he subconsciously wanted to go to it, but found that his hand passed directly through it, as if he was still in the game.
But there is no such terrifying height as the abyss in the game!
"I've crossed over!" Fang Yuan sighed, it's okay, at least it's not the zombie apocalypse or the mysterious world, it won't cause death without a place to bury just because he makes a noise.
He is an MC veteran and knows the characteristics of the original MC, so as long as he doesn't die, it's actually unlikely that something will happen.
"Then ...... Let's let ourselves survive first! Fang Yuan sighed, and then put away his undeserved fantasies, and observed the surrounding environment steadily.
It's a very standard MC empty island, not the kind of particularly magical single-block change empty island, nor is it the most difficult empty island in the history of the particularly cheating father, but the small empty island with a tree, a box, and an L-shape.
"Crunch!" A very crisp sound came, and a densely arranged box appeared in front of Fang Yuan, there were seven rows, nine in each row.
The top three rows are boxes, the bottom three rows are your own backpacks, and the bottom row is your own hotbar.
"It's exactly like the game!" He muttered, observing the contents of the box.
"A piece of ice, a bucket of magma, five loaves of bread, a scarlet fungus, a crimson fungus, mycelium, and two books?" Fang Yuan guessed something, and after putting all these things on himself, he knocked out the box.
"Dada-da-da!" He counted six times, and under his own quick tapping, the box quickly cracked, and then fell down, entering Fang Yuan's body without the slightest stagnation.
"Sure enough, it's the original!" There were no real drops or similar mod effects, Fang Yuan found this chest in his inventory.
Sky Island is a very peculiar place, everything here is scarce, so most of the supplies need to be collected by himself.
But once the looting system is in place, the island will become very rich again, at least much richer than the original survival.
Fang Yuan observed the island for a moment—that is, lying on one end of this "L" shape, looking at the other end.
The island has six layers, each made of pure dirt, with a gray-black block at the bottom that appears to be bedrock.
"5 layers of dirt, each layer is 48 pieces of dirt, which means that if I hollow out the entire island and only the bedrock remains, I can get 240 pieces of dirt!" Fang Yuan smiled slightly, "Good start!" ”
But he is not ready to start digging now, the first thing that the empty island needs to do is always to ensure its own survival, and other construction or renovation must be ranked after this.
First of all, he had to solve his own food problem, the five loaves in the box could only guarantee that he would survive in two to three days, so Fang Yuan had to find a way to survive in these three short days.
The famous writer Lu Xun once ...... Forget about not persecuting Lu Xun, MC players once said that if you want to get rich, you must first pick up trees.
No matter what kind of birth and beginning, a tree is always indispensable, and without a tree, at least the original survival would not be possible.
"Da Da Da!" Six more times, the bottom block of this tree had been knocked down by Fang Yuan, he looked up at the big tree in front of him with some palpitations, it shouldn't fall down, right?
Although Fang Yuan is a macho man who can set diamonds at the beginning of ten minutes in the game, in reality, he has to think about his own life.
In case the tree falls down, he is accidentally hit, and there is a cliff next to him!
Fang Yuan was a man who cherished his life, so he quickly knocked down the seven pieces of wood one by one, and directly decomposed them into 28 planks on the spot.
That in itself was the ability he possessed, and the planks were folded in a group in his backpack, then he grabbed them in his hand, pulled them out, and pressed them on the spot.
A one-meter-square wooden workbench with a nine-square grid appeared in his hand, this thing is the core of the MC, no matter what kind of items and blocks, most of them have to be crafted through this workbench.
When a tree is cut down, the leaves do not disappear as a result, they disappear little by little, and there is a chance to regenerate some special drops.
This was also the purpose of Fang Yuan's hurried way to put the workbench together, one piece of wood could be synthesized into four planks, and three planks could be synthesized into six wooden steps.
The wooden steps are exactly the same as the planks, they are all 1x1 squares, but the volume is only half of the volume, which is one of the best flooring materials on the empty island.
In the middle of this "L" shaped empty island, there was a hole of about 16 blocks, which was quickly paved by Fang Yuan with wooden steps, and this empty island became a large 8*8 platform, about the size of a living room.
The next thing is to wait for the canopy above his head to disappear and drop the saplings and apples so that he can move on to the next step.
Of course, he was not idle now, but sat on the workbench, opened his backpack, and took out the two books in the box.
These two books are very popular.、The shape of the book in the MC.,It's just that they're shining.,It looks like it's an enchanted book.,But there's no specific enchantment shown.,There are only two names.。
"The World Rescue Handbook, The Contact?" Fang Yuan looked at the words written on it, confused.
Open the "World Salvation Handbook", there is only one line of very short words in it: "Congratulations, become the owner of the World Gap, where different worlds will be constantly linked, if you can save the world and get the recognition of the world itself, you can get a special reward." ”
"In the same way, if you fail to save the world, you need to withstand the shock of the failed world."
"Whether the door of the link is hope or despair, it is all in your thoughts!"
"Good luck, my heir!"
As the book was opened, the words inside flickered one by one, and the book became an ordinary book, making Fang Yuan grit his teeth.
This mastermind behind the scenes is really inappropriate, just throw him in this empty world, don't give any benefits, don't say anything, and put such a big burden on himself when he comes up? Is this really appropriate?
Speechless for a long time, Fang Yuan could only continue to flip through the book "Contact", the name was not like a book, but like an address book.
There is no text in the book, only one person keeps texting, and the last time he sent a message was three days ago: "Hello? hello? مرحبا? Bonjour? Привет? ”
His head is like a German Shepherd, but his name is "Robert Neville", which sounds like an Englishman or an American.
"Hello!" Fang Yuan didn't know how to talk to him, so he had to leave his answer below first.
His avatar is a square man, and his name is his own name, Fang Yuan.
He had a hunch that this "Address Book" would be the most commonly used thing for him in the future.
"What kind of address book, chat group is right!" Fang Yuan smiled and put it away and put it in the last position of the hotbar, so that he could pick it up and check it at any time.
It didn't take long for him to put down the book in his hand and get up from his workbench, the leaves above his head had already dissipated.
And on the planks and grass in front of him, there were also some sundries, waiting for Fang Yuan to collect them.
"Good luck!" Fang Yuan's face was full of joy, he had collected three apples and two saplings, in every sense, he was the Emperor of Europe.
Without any hesitation, the two saplings were planted, the resources of the empty island were scarce, so all the resources had to be used well, even if there were a hundred saplings now, Fang Yuan would not hesitate to plant them, the amount of resources needed by the empty island was quite terrifying.
......After a long time, he felt the hunger in his belly, so he nibbled on an apple, turning the fullness that had not lost much into a full grid.
"Okay, won't feel thirsty, that's probably the only good news!" Fang Yuan complained incidentally, it seems that this world has inherited the characteristics of the game, and there are no disgusting things left such as hunger and thirst.
Plant the two trees as separately as possible, and make sure that both trees are in the center of the island, so that the next time you cut down the tree, there will be no problem of saplings or apples falling into the void.
"Next......" Fang Yuan sat on the workbench and looked at the sun above the sky, "Let's start brushing stones!" ”
Readers who were Steve in the last life should know that on an empty island, no matter what you do, you have to farm stones.
Usually he will go to the group to find two long-term workers and direct them to brush stones, or make a simple pickaxe projector, and use the button elf to hang up and brush stones.
It's a pity that this is a real world, and Fang Yuan can't use either of the above, and in order to survive on this empty island, he still needs to do a lot of things by himself.
The stone brushing machine is something that every Sky Island person must learn, and Fang Yuan has his own experience.
The stone brushing machine, as the name suggests, is a machine that refreshes stones in a way, which can create a lot of stones out of nothing.
The property used by the stone brush machine is actually the infinity between water and magma.
While both can be consumed, they can flow infinitely downward without consumption.
This flowing liquid, when it collides with each other, produces stones, which is non-consuming, and if you are patient enough, you can fill the whole world with the excavated stones.
He only had a piece of ice and a bucket of magma, and if the stone machine was misplaced, whether the water disappeared or the magma turned into obsidian, it was something he couldn't accept.
So he first dug a two-block pit in the original grass, and then dug one end of the pit one block downwards to form a very unique triangle.
Put the ice at the end of the pit and gently break it, and a piece of ice will turn into a block of water, which flows down the hole into the deeper block.
The advantage of this is that the water will not disappear because of the surrounding soil, but will only flow into the pit very regularly, avoiding the trouble of digging the soil in the future.
Then, Fang Yuan took out the magma bucket, and the hot air rushed against his head, making his face turn red.
"Shhh He was a little surprised, he usually didn't feel the temperature when he played games, but now he really felt this heat wave, if it was poured on people......
Fang Yuan couldn't help but tremble, it was better not to have this kind of thought.
But his work could not be stopped, he walked a few blocks parallel to the current, and laid down the lava at the edge of the island, of course, he would not pour the lava into the void.
Playing the game can be played like this, a bucket of magma and a bucket of water, pouring into the void can quickly make a stone pillar, which is much faster than the stone brusher, and it is quite convenient to come up through the water column after digging.
But here's the reality, the devil knows if he can be resurrected after he dies? Fang Yuan was not prepared to make such an attempt.
So he lowered the lava two blocks apart, and there was a pit that had already been dug, and the lava needed to flow to make a stone brusher, so it couldn't make a simple descent like water.
Soon the magma began to flow, and it slowly stopped when it touched the piece of dirt in the middle, Fang Yuan took a deep breath, the hot magma was flowing in his hand, and he couldn't do it!
He gouged the dirt from under his feet, then scratched at the block in front of him, and soon the dirt shattered and sucked into his inventory, and he walked out of the pit with both hands.
If this is touched by lava, then it is really dead!
"Whew!" The sound of fire and water began to appear, and where Fang Yuan had just cut through the dirt, a square stone that looked like it was covered with splintering marks appeared.
“yes!” Fang Yuan was overjoyed, as long as there was no problem with the stone brushing machine, other things would not be a problem!
Now what he needs is to make a wooden pickaxe, in the MC setting, only a pickaxe can mine stone, and a stone pickaxe needs three cobblestone to craft.
That's why many people like to call the pickaxe "three-grid durable".
This means that as long as three stones are dug out, the wooden pickaxe will be considered to have completed its mission.
Fang Yuan also knew about this stalk, but the sky island was scarce, so he wouldn't do it.
He had just used four planks to make the workbench and nine planks to make the wooden steps, and he now had fifteen planks left in his hand.
Using two planks to make four wooden sticks, and then two wooden sticks and three planks to make a wooden pickaxe, Fang Yuan jumped down the pit in one fell swoop and began to dig his first stone!
