Minecraft: Global Infinite Survival

Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Do You Know About Redstone Technology?



It didn't take long before the sand in the furnace was smelted into glass.

Lin Fan retrieved the glass from the furnace, opened his crafting table, and placed it on the grid.

Crafting glass bottles was a straightforward process: take three pieces of glass and arrange them in a "V" shape on the crafting table.

With three pieces of glass, Lin Fan crafted three glass bottles.

While he was crafting the first set, the furnace smelted another three pieces of glass.

Lin Fan turned the newly smelted glass into bottles as well, giving him six glass bottles in total.

By the time he finished, his thirst bar had dropped to just one segment. Lin Fan felt parched, his throat dry, and his head a little dizzy.

"This is way too realistic…" he muttered, wobbling his way toward the river.

In the game Minecraft, as long as your thirst and hunger bars didn't drop to zero, you wouldn't lose health—at worst, you'd just move a little slower.

As such, thirst was something players usually didn't pay much attention to. But in this world, Lin Fan could truly feel every negative physical effect.

With his thirst bar down to one segment, he genuinely felt like he was about to die of dehydration.

Staggering to the riverbank, Lin Fan filled a glass bottle with water and raised it to his lips.

He downed the entire bottle in one gulp. Perhaps because he had been thirsty for too long, the river water tasted incredibly sweet to him.

After finishing one bottle, he smacked his lips, filled another, and gulped it down as well. He continued drinking until his thirst bar was completely full before stopping.

Lilian walked over, looking at Lin Fan with eager eyes.

Lin Fan handed her a glass bottle. Lilian mimicked his actions and drank from the river as well.

As a maid, she functioned like a normal human being, with both hunger and thirst bars, meaning Lin Fan now had two mouths to feed.

As the breadwinner of the household, he'd need to work even harder.

Lin Fan filled all six bottles with water, handing three to Lilian.

They couldn't always come to the river whenever they got thirsty, so carrying a supply of water was essential.

With the water issue resolved, Lin Fan's next priority was food.

He could manage with rotten flesh, but Lilian couldn't.

She couldn't eat rotten flesh, so Lin Fan had to figure out another food source for her.

Returning to the small house, Lin Fan dismantled the furnace and crafting table, storing them in his inventory.

The little wooden house had been a temporary shelter for the night, and Lin Fan had no plans to stay there long-term.

Stepping out of the house, Lin Fan headed toward the oak forest.

Flatlands typically spawn animals, so he hoped to find a sheep or two. If he got lucky, he might even be able to craft a bed.

After walking for a bit, Lin Fan spotted a white sheep not far away.

"Just as I thought," he whispered, pulling out his stone sword and carefully creeping closer.

Lilian, curious, followed behind him, mimicking his stealthy movements.

The sheep, unaware of Lin Fan's presence, was leisurely munching on grass.

Seizing the moment, Lin Fan charged forward with his stone sword and struck the sheep.

The hit reduced the sheep's health to 3/8. 

It seemed the animals' health values hadn't changed in this world.

Unlike zombies and skeletons, however, the sheep didn't fight back.

After being hit, the sheep let out a panicked bleat and instinctively tried to flee.

Lin Fan wasn't about to let it escape. He quickly caught up and delivered a second blow.

The sheep collapsed, meeting its demise under Lin Fan's blade.

On the ground, it dropped one block of wool and two pieces of mutton.

Excited, Lin Fan picked up the mutton.

The wool could wait—right now, food was the most precious resource.

"Looks like your food for today is sorted," Lin Fan said, waving the mutton in front of Lilian.

Lilian seemed a bit surprised.

"Master, you can hunt too?" she asked.

"Me?" Lin Fan chuckled as he stored the wool and mutton in his inventory. "I can do everything."

"Really?" Lilian clearly didn't believe him.

"I'm the omnipotent maid of this world! Can the things you know even compare to what I know?"

"I think I know more than you," Lin Fan replied, still grinning.

Lilian puffed her cheeks and began speaking with a hint of seriousness.

"Do you even know what I'm capable of? I know how to craft every tool, hunt, kill monsters, locate treasures—basically everything in this world!"

"Is that so?" Lin Fan casually responded, then turned to her with a serious look.

"Then, do you know about redstone technology?"

Lilian froze for a moment.

"Redstone technology?" She tilted her head, looking confused. "I do know about redstone... but isn't it only useful for making torches?"

Lin Fan smirked and lightly knocked on Lilian's forehead.

"That's just your limited knowledge. I'll show you someday what a 'Redstone Nation' looks like." With that, he cheerfully walked deeper into the oak forest.

Lilian pouted, clearly displeased, and quickly followed him.

"What?! I'm an omnipotent maid—how could you say I have limited knowledge?!"

"Explain what redstone technology is before you walk off!"

"Master! Wait for me!"

As Lin Fan had suspected, the so-called omnipotent maid only knew what the rules of this world dictated. Her knowledge was limited to the crafting recipes and nothing more.

But Minecraft wasn't just about crafting recipes. It allowed players to create all sorts of things, leveraging and surpassing the basic recipes.

Lin Fan's knowledge came from 12 years of Minecraft development and innovation by countless players.

So, even though Lilian was an "omnipotent maid," her understanding of this world couldn't possibly surpass his.

After walking for a while, Lin Fan munched on some rotten flesh to stave off hunger. He also placed the two pieces of mutton he'd collected into the furnace to cook.

As soon as the mutton hit the furnace, the mouthwatering aroma of roasted meat began wafting through the air, spreading across the plains.

"This smells amazing," Lin Fan said, standing by the furnace with a hungry look.

Lilian, like a little puppy waiting to be fed, stared at the furnace with wide, sparkling eyes.

Lin Fan couldn't help but think of how delicious that apple had been earlier. The roasted mutton was sure to taste just as good, if not better.

The scent of roasted mutton carried across the plains, and it wasn't long before others picked up on it.

"Wow, what's that smell?"

"Smells like roasted meat."

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sick of eating apples every day. I want meat!"

"The smell's coming from over there. Let's go check it out!"

Unbeknownst to Lin Fan, a group of people began heading in his direction.

They weren't far, so it didn't take long for them to spot him.

From a distance, they saw Lin Fan and Lilian standing by the furnace, the scent of roasted mutton emanating from it.

"Damn, who's that? They're actually eating roasted meat!"

The group stared at Lin Fan, their mouths watering.

One of them even took a screenshot and posted it to the world chat.

"Guys, someone's eating roasted meat. Thoughts?"
