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

Chapter 135: How to Use the Energy Core?

The man and the fish were bickering, but they were both on the other side of Shi Qian's mind, far away from him, so as not to disturb his thoughts.

Shi Qian is pondering how the core of energy influences the world.

But halfway through my thought, I suddenly realized that there was only one energy core here.

Regardless of the version of the story, there are always two energy cores, corresponding to the ocean and the snowfield.

The ocean's energy core is here, so... where's the other one?

The dolphin version of the energy core is measured in units of "pieces"... It doesn't look like the form shown in front of us at all, but it is indeed strange that it appears here.

The Faceless Fish has always insisted that this is the core of energy, and its reasons are quite valid.

Shi Qian had never seen what a real energy core looked like, so he couldn't tell what was real and what was fake.

Where is the energy core of the snowfield?

"When it collapsed, only the ocean's water fell on me... I don't know about the other one."

The faceless fish looked somewhat dejected; that was half of the world.

Shi Qian has a headache.

I originally thought the matter could be resolved in one go.

Without any clues about the other energy core, we can only try to deal with the energy core in front of us first.

There's nothing we can do about the Faceless Fish...

We should ask the guardians; after all, they have something to do with God.

Do you know how the energy core is used?

Shi Qian brought the guardians and the lucid Eye of the Ocean back to their home on the seabed.

A space was specially carved out next to the laboratory, filled with water, and decorated with many sea crystal lamps for lighting.

Although they wanted to go home, and Shi Qian wanted to let them go home, given the current situation in the other dimension... they definitely wouldn't survive if they went back.

We still need to restore part of the dimensions first to create the ocean.

The guardians knew roughly what was going on, but they never expected their homeland to be in such a state after they left, and to be in such a serious condition.

I had to suppress my longing to go home and stay somewhere close to home for the time being. At least I could see the door to my home as soon as I stepped out, which gave me something to look forward to.

Shi Qian had Ran Xiao and Ke Cheng dig this hole, and he specifically instructed them to make it as big as possible.

After all, there are many guards, and it's not big enough to accommodate everyone.

When they saw Shi Qian return with a large group of bizarre creatures, they were completely stunned.

Their leader didn't even go through the portal, so where did these creatures come from?

Such novelties exist in the main world?

But the boss didn't go out for long, and he didn't bring the Phantom Wings, so he definitely didn't leave the ocean area...

The ocean has been practically explored by players, all in search of other portals. How could there possibly be anything left undiscovered?

The boss has already conjured up too many incredible things. Although what he brought back this time was a little unbelievable, the two of them quickly realized what was going on and helped usher it into the cave that had been dug.

Ran Xiao couldn't resist and bombarded the group with a bunch of messages, along with many screenshots.

Ask Mo Niao if he knows what's going on.

Mo Niao had never seen anything like this before, and he typed a few question marks. Then... the two of them started competing to see who could type more question marks...

Shi Qian's clone #2, who had nothing to do, was a little confused by their behavior. All the other bodies were busy, so only #2 had time to check the message board. When he clicked on it, the screen was full of question marks.

"What if you two go for a training session sometime?"

"Boss! What are you doing looking at the group chat?"

"Cough... I'm going to find a drowned corpse for training."

Ke Cheng remained silent, though the group chat was open in front of him, his gaze seemed not to be focused on the chat content.

...

"The energy core... When God brought us into this world, the energy core was in His hands, but I don't know its specific uses; it's a power possessed by God..."

The ancient guardians were unaware of this secret; their words were a simultaneous interpretation of the Eye of the Ocean's contents.

"Holding it in your hand...as an object? Do you remember what it was like?"

Shi Qian sat at the bottom of the pit, with the Eye of the Ocean in front of him and the Ancient Guardian beside him.

"state?"

"It's about whether the water is flowing or still, the state of the water flow."

Shi Qian had already told them about the current situation in the abyss and the room with the water stone.

Regarding the status...

Shi Qian remembered that when he was watching videos before, he saw a streamer playing Minecraft from a long time ago.

There was a peculiar block called "Infinite Water Source," which could generate water in areas below its height, but it seems to have been removed in the end.

He's starting to suspect that the "energy core" the Faceless Fish found isn't a real one. If it were, how could it have no reaction at all...?

Or is it that his method is wrong, and he has to hold the thing in his hand to use it?

But it cannot be destroyed, nor can it be scooped up...

He even used a piston, which was a water source block stuck in the water.

"It seems to move, like if you dig open the block next to the water, you can see the water flowing."

Okay, it seems there's nothing wrong with it; it's true.

"Okay, let me think about it some more..."

If hard methods don't work, then we have to use special features.

Super Brain! Activate!

If this is a water block, then since it's a block, it should have the form of dropped items.

However, there's no way to directly turn blocks into drops right now. We need to figure out a way to turn blocks into drops, and it might be related to water.

Since the energy core can appear underwater and the main quest is to obtain the energy core to liberate the ocean, it must be obtainable using Minecraft.

And it must exist in this world now.

What aspects of the main world and this dimension are related to the ocean or snowfields?

Creatures, blocks, other items...

Biological fish are not being considered for now, because he has tested them in a bucket of fish, and even axolotls didn't work!

However, it's also possible that they're looking for the Guardians, but so far no living Guardians have been seen in the Frozen Dimension. Even if they were found, how would they get them into the Abyss?

He'd tried the Heart of the Ocean, but it didn't produce any eyes or fish form. The methods that worked in the lab for creating eyes didn't work here; it might be a problem with the dimensionality...

Therefore, biological POSS.

As for items...

Various barrels, tridents, snowballs, and the like were used in turn, but to no avail.

The remaining items, however, did not have a strong connection to these two places.

That leaves only the cubes.

What can be used?

Those blocks are special...

Because the block cannot be placed into that special water source at all, it cannot be replaced.

By the way...

Will the [Energy Core] be a gravity block like sand?

When the surrounding supports are destroyed, it will turn into a falling block.

If so, there seems to be a method we can try.

sponge!

After the surrounding ordinary seawater is absorbed, only the [Energy Core] remains.

However, it's uncertain whether the energy core is the gravity block...

And even if that's the case, how does it transform into dropped items after falling?

Do you use torches or something?

Washed away by the water...

And it doesn't seem to be a unique type of cube.

Shi Qian's current thinking is all geared towards unique items, since that's how the portals are opened; both portals were successfully opened by utilizing unique mechanisms based on the environmental conditions.

What other features...? Stop thinking so hard! Have you forgotten all those Minecraft tips and tricks you've learned?

I've got it!
