Chapter 29 Great!

There are many different ways to die in MC games.

The most common ones include drowning, swimming in lava, being blown up by creepers, being crushed, falling out of this world, etc. Each of these ways of dying have been personally verified by countless players and naughty kids.

Falling to death from a height is just one of the many ways to die in MC.

To meet this condition, a player or monster without equipment must fall from a height of 23.5 blocks.

This is what is called the "death height" in MC.

But Chen Jue vaguely remembered that there were several creatures in the game that could ignore the damage caused by falling from a high altitude. Chickens, ocelots, evil spirits, iron golems, etc. had natural "fall protection".

It stands to reason that an iron golem will not die even if it falls from a great height, but the scene happening underground is beyond the setting in the original game.

"An iron golem can be killed by a single fall even if it has 50 health points."

"How deep can it be?" Chen Jue pursed his lips.

Of course, he was mainly worried about the 1 yuan he spent on buying the skin.

In the real world, 1 yuan is equivalent to several months' salary for low-income people. But it only lasted a few hours in his hands before it was wasted. It was really hard to hold on.

Fortunately, Tiewuga’s sacrifice was not in vain.

Its death not only alerted Chen Jue to the danger, but also alerted his boss to a hidden mine buried underground in his own home.

If it weren't for this group of iron golems helping to dig the hole downwards, Chen Jue couldn't imagine whether he would have fallen to death if he had just been digging underground stubbornly.

After all, he is a living person with flesh and blood, unlike Steve in the game who can be reborn infinitely.

Even if he obtained the MC system, he would not dare to joke with his life and take a leap of faith.

"Earth Online, you only have one life to complete the game."

"What's the point of starting another game?"

Chen Jue felt somewhat relieved but also somewhat fearful, so he put a few buckets filled with water into the prop column.

This is one of the essential self-rescue props for MC players. Once you encounter a sudden risk such as falling, pouring water under your feet can give you some reaction time.

……

"There was no other danger? Did he simply fall to his death from the height?"

After a brief communication with Tieyi, Chen Jue, fully armed, followed Tieyi and dived into the water column again.

Seeing the same bubble icon as in the game appearing on the system page, Chen Jue swam down quickly with the torch in his hand.

With the water column channel created by infinite water, Chen Jue no longer had the fear of the height below that he had before, as if he was staring into the abyss.

Swimming from top to bottom along the water column, when he reached the dark rocky area under his feet, Chen Jue placed the torches he had prepared all around.

Under the illumination of the torches, an extremely narrow V-shaped underground canyon appeared in Chen Jue's sight.

The air around was a little moist and turbid. The place where I landed showed signs of being washed by an underground river, and there were pebbles scattered everywhere. It was obvious that there was most likely a water source not far away.

You know, Vancouver is located in the middle of the Pacific coastline of the Chinese mainland, very close to the earthquake zone outside the southeast coast. It is very normal for such canyon cracks torn deep underground due to the long-term impact of earthquakes.

But the depth of this underground canyon is a bit terrifying!
After checking the surrounding environment, Chen Jue picked up the [Rock] block and jumped to the ground under his feet, following the previous water column all the way to the vertical shaft passage with light above.

When he saw a few Iron Eels showing their heads, Chen Jue discovered that he had used up more than 1300 [Rock] blocks in his backpack.

According to the calculation that the side length of a square is 1 meter, this suddenly dug underground V-shaped canyon actually reaches an astonishing 1 meters!
"No wonder Tiewuga fell to his death."

"If it were me, even if I fell from this height, ten more lives would not be enough." Chen Jue sighed in his heart upon seeing this, and hurriedly ordered the iron golems to help lay the stairs.

……

It took a while to fill the underground canyon with torches.

With the help of light, Chen Jue was finally able to see the entire terrain of the V-shaped canyon.

"With water and air, and if we dig and level the surroundings, this place will be a natural underground fortress!" Chen Jue looked around and began to think in his mind.

Since this canyon appeared under our house, we should make use of waste as much as possible.

First, let a few iron golems start working according to their own ideas. With the help of MC tools, it is very easy to dig out a large square underground fortification. Chen Jue himself took Tie Yi and walked along the narrow path at the bottom of the canyon in the direction of the wind.

When he encountered an insurmountable obstacle, he would use the [Stone Draft] to knock it open.

After walking forward for several hundred meters and turning a corner, we finally saw an almost dried-up underground stream.

The water was very shallow, only up to the ankles, and there were scattered pebbles everywhere.

"There is air and water, which means this place must have a source."

"Let's block the source in the past to prevent outsiders from breaking in and discovering my underground base in the future." Chen Jue said to himself.

After searching diagonally upward along the stream for more than half an hour, Chen Jue finally felt a flow of air coming from outside the ground in a crack above his head where water was seeping.

He lifted the stone draft and dug open the top, then drilled out by padding his way with stones.

When we got out of this slippery crack, what came into view was the bright moon hanging high in the sky and the overgrown environment around us.

The smell of green grass penetrates my nostrils, the sound of flowing water comes in the distance, and the faint chirping of frogs, insects and birds on a summer night.

“This seems to be the source of the reservoir!”

“I’ve been here before!”

"You actually went this far in one go?"

Chen Jue looked around, took out his mobile phone to locate himself, and confirmed that his location was exactly the source of the Chencun Reservoir in the back mountain.

This place is sparsely populated, but the water is very clean.

In the past, some villagers invested several million yuan to build a breeding base nearby, specializing in raising giant salamanders (baby fish), an edible and rare amphibian.

You know, the giant salamander is very particular about the water quality environment in which it lives, and breeding will fail if you are not careful.

This is also why in its heyday in the past, the price of giant salamander meat could be sold at a sky-high price of several thousand yuan per kilogram.

It was not until the large-scale breeding technology became popular and the production of giant salamanders increased that the price dropped to a bargain price of just a few dozen yuan per pound, which indirectly led to the failure and bankruptcy of the breeding base.

"No wonder there are small streams underground. The water seeps down from the source of the reservoir."

Chen Jue took a look at the abandoned breeding base hidden in the jungle, and formed a preliminary geographical outline of the underground canyon in his mind.

The location of the underground canyon happened to be just below the mountain where the Chencun Reservoir was located.

Because the location is deep enough and the canyon is narrow, there are no signs of collapse or ground subsidence.

According to Chen Jue's speculation, it is possible that such a special topography has existed for at least hundreds of thousands of years or even longer.

Growing up in Chen Village, Chen Jue had never heard of anyone discovering its entrance.

In this way, he could boldly use the underground canyon to develop his own business.

"go back!"

"Fill up the gaps at the entrance and exit!"

"As for the air, we can just use the vertical shaft in the utility room at home to import it." After figuring this out, Chen Jue immediately went back with Tie Yi.

First, seal the entrance of the cave with rubble from outside, and then lay soil blocks and rock blocks on the ground to isolate it from the outside world.

Then Chen Jue slowly returned to his underground home along the original route.

On the way back, he would also place rock blocks to block the small paths that people could pass through, ensuring that it would be difficult for anyone to go deeper if they broke in in the future.

However, when Chen Jue took some time to reach the V-shaped canyon, the busy iron golems saw him coming back and immediately put down the [Stone Draft] in their hands, holding a cube with brown spots and ran over as if to ask for credit: "Boss! Iron... There is iron ore here!"

Chen Jue's face immediately showed ecstasy when he heard this: "What? You dug out iron ore? Tiewu, you are really worth it! That's great!"

I quickly took the cube and saw a string of subtitles pop up:
[Ultra-poor iron ore: underground ore with extremely low mining value, with an iron content of 3.76%. ]
