The Legend of Fangren

When it comes to ways to travel, the blocky people have no shortage of ideas.

It can fly in the sky, run on the ground, and swim in the sea; it is truly an all-rounder, excelling in everything.

But given the current conditions, all that's left for Fang Shi is to run on the ground.

His first thought was the potion-making system. In Minecraft, there are all kinds of potions with magical effects, which can be made using a functional block called the [Potion Maker].

However, the core material of this functional block is [Blazing Rod], which in reality might be some kind of substance with high energy.

Obviously, in reality, this thing wouldn't be a common item—that's the difference between games and reality. In the game, you only need to kill a monster called [Flame Monster] to get it, but if you put that kind of monster in the Xuan Realm, you can't think you can just take it down with a shield and a bow.

So the drug-taking plan was skipped, and another option was considered—horseback riding.

In fact, there are many kinds of creatures in Minecraft that can be ridden. As long as a saddle is placed on it, the blocky can control the direction of the creature's movement, which can be described as absolute control.

In comparison, even He Zi's amazing talent for riding horses is nothing, because she can't make her mounts do exactly what she wants.

So Fang Shi thought that riding should also be a skill that blocky people should have, otherwise how could they tame horses empty-handed in the game?

He was a man of action; while his fellow disciples were learning the Divine Speed ​​Technique these past few days, he also wanted to figure it out in the same time.

"I'll go find some fruit."

Finding a random excuse, Fang Shi ran off into the nearby mountains and forests. This kind of terrain was everywhere in the eastern border, and where there was this kind of terrain, there were bound to be some wild animals.

The so-called wild beasts are just a common name; they are actually ordinary-level mystical beasts. To tame an animal, its favorite food is essential.

While you can tame a horse with your bare hands in Minecraft, feeding it food increases the chance of taming it and is a necessary way to save time.

But mountains and forests are not plains, and wild animals are extremely rare. It's likely that only those attracted by the fruit will be…

With a whoosh, a deer's head popped out of the grass. It really is you, Cangzhi Deer!

Judging from its antlers, it was only at the ordinary first-tier level. The adult Cangzhi Deer stared intently at the spirit fruit in his hand as soon as it saw it.

"A deer, that's not out of the question either."

Blocks can be compatible with all kinds of real-world materials, so why can't block people be? Riding a deer is so novel.

Come on, little deer, have some fruit.

Having learned from past mistakes, Fang Shi took advantage of the moment when the deer was eating fruit, freeing his hands to climb onto the deer.

"Woo!" The Cangzhi deer was startled and hurriedly swallowed the fruit. It started jumping up and down. Since there was no saddle, Fang Shi could only hug the Cangzhi deer's neck. However, the Cangzhi deer had long antlers with the tips curving backward. Every time it shook its head, it made Fang Shi's neck feel cold.

"Hey!"

Finally, the deer crashed into a tree, and he crashed into a tree too, hanging himself from a branch on the southeast side.

The startled deer took off running, and Fang Shi quickly took out some fruit—in the game, even if the blocky man fails to tame a horse, he can increase the chance of taming it the next time, so he can't give up all his previous efforts.

Whoosh! Cangzhi Lu turned around sharply, her panicked eyes clearing up again.

The power of food is terrifying, comparable to mind control.

When the deer reached the bottom, Fang Shi threw a fruit, and he also tumbled down from the branch, landing on the deer's back, thus resuming the battle between man and deer, which continued in a never-ending cycle.

After five times...

"..." Fang Shi was quite certain that the horse in the game would not need to be tamed so many times after eating a dozen or so fruits, which meant that taming without hands was not possible.

This tactic is probably only good for dealing with Hezi.

At this point, the first option is no longer viable, so the second method of taming will have to be adopted.

In the game, apart from horses which can be tamed by hand, all other rideable animals require a rather unusual method.

Considering that the Cangzhi Deer is unable to resist the spiritual fruit, the second method seems more reasonable—tying the fruit to a fishing rod and then riding on the animal would create a magical perpetual motion machine.

These items are generally called "[Fishing Rod]", and the recipe is food + fishing rod. The fishing rod is made by combining three sticks and two spider silk.

"So that means we still need spider silk..."

However, I've never encountered any spider-like mystical beasts before. If I'm just fishing for fruit, I probably won't be able to utilize the power of the item.

The allure of the fruit alone was not enough to keep him firmly on the deer's back.

Sigh, all that effort for nothing.

Dejected, Fang Shi returned to the camp and sullenly began to flip through the texts, trying to find out what kind of environment spider-like mystical beasts usually appeared in.

Luo He glanced over and got goosebumps: "Hey~ Fangzi, why are you looking at spiders?"

"Of course, it's for researching food," Fang Shi said casually.

To everyone's surprise, Luo He reacted strongly: "I would never eat a spider!"

Hmm... I've already set the flag, looks like I have no choice but to eat it.

The commotion they made attracted Elder Yun's attention. When she heard that Fang Shi was looking for spiders, she said, "Spider-like mystical beasts are rare. They usually hide in trees that have become spirits, waiting for their prey to come to them by taking advantage of ripe spiritual fruits. Moreover, it is rare to find one that is large in size."

Fang Shi exclaimed in surprise, "Elder Yun, you know so much about this!"

She chuckled: "Because my magical artifact is a bow, and one of the materials for the bowstring is the silk of the Mystic Spider. However, Spider Beasts are not so easy to find. Because of their small size, they don't spin webs on trees with many beasts, but rather in some treacherous terrain, such as cliffs, deep valleys, to prey on flying insects and birds."

"Been taught a lesson."

Upon hearing this, Fang Shi immediately turned his gaze to the high mountain, but at a glance, the steep mountain walls were all bare. Where would any spirits or magical plants come from? There were only some grasses and vines. Could it be that there were some good ones among them?

It's not impossible to find a model of turfgrass with a root ball.

Alas, under the Five Elements Law, the distribution of creatures in the Xuan Realm is quite different from that of the previous life, and even common wild creatures like spiders have become unusual.

Seeing him sigh, Elder Yun said, "If you want to find the spider beast, you must be careful of spider venom, as almost all common spider venom has a paralyzing effect."

"oh."

Fang Shi didn't care. In the eyes of the cube people, the more abilities a creature has, the higher its value.

Paralysis is a welcome effect, much more practical than the poison on the antlers of the deer. Spider eyes are also an indispensable raw material for alchemy. For the square people, spiders are a treasure trove.

It's decided, we'll go up the mountain tonight. It doesn't matter if there are any fairy plants on the cliffs. If not, we'll use bone meal to ripen them quickly, and the whole mountain will be covered in fruit. We won't have to worry about attracting spiders.

Once the spider arrives, it will start spinning its web, allowing him to steal the spider silk for free. After stealing the silk, he can also steal the spider's eyes—he can even kill the spider and then wait patiently by the web to steal more silk for free.

This is... Spider-Man!
