Minecraft: I'm Really Not a Monster

The warm midday sun did little to dispel the thick white mist below.

On the rooftop of an apartment building, Yang Bo was busily laying out [Soil], planting a green sapling only half a meter tall.

Even without wind, the verdant sapling still swayed gently, giving one the feeling it was drifting in the breeze.

"This tree is growing too slowly; it's been three hours already…"

Fortunately, no one else heard his mutterings, or they would have sent him to Qingshan Mental Hospital for a few annual passes.

Buzzing…

A strange sound suddenly echoed in the sky. Yang Bo looked up and saw a helicopter approaching from the distance, heading in his direction.

Yang Bo immediately turned and returned to the safety passage, cautiously observing the helicopter flying past outside.

The military-green helicopter was emblazoned with a red flag, with a golden crescent moon in the upper left corner.

'That should be the symbol of the force to which this aircraft belongs…'

In fact, his heart was very complicated at this moment.

He really wanted to go to a human settlement, so he could understand what exactly had happened to this world.

But…

Touching his handsome face, Yang Bo sighed helplessly, "Forget it, I'm so handsome. What if I get sent to a club to be a gigolo? That would be a huge loss."

In this strange world, the only thing he could trust was the stone axe in his hand.

In the apocalypse, you have to face not only monsters but also your fellow humans.

… …

Inside the helicopter's cabin, the sound of the rotors reverberated in everyone's ears.

Five heavily armed combat personnel, all wielding identical black rifles, carefully and attentively observed the situation outside.

A heavily armed man, half-squatting at the left side of the cabin door, suddenly shouted, "Captain, situation spotted!"

Hearing his words, the captain, who had been standing in the cabin, immediately walked over. His gaze followed the soldier's direction, looking down at the city, and asked:

"Number 3, what situation have you discovered?"

The soldier, called Number 3, immediately pointed to the building where Yang Bo was.

"There was something resembling a human just now, but he seemed to have noticed us and quickly retreated into the building."

Hearing the team member's words, the captain looked at the tall building, feeling somewhat doubtful: 'Could there still be survivors here?'

Four months ago, this city had already been parasitized by spore creatures from the 'Abyss'.

But by the time humanity reacted, it was already too late. Those white spore creatures had already spread and invaded the entire city's sewer system.

There was no choice. The higher-ups could only relocate the population of this city, abandoning this city of nearly a million people.

Otherwise, once these spore creatures fully matured, this city would inevitably suffer a devastating blow, and all humans would become nourishment for the spore creatures.

"Everyone, be on guard. We will complete the observation mission first, and then come back after the mission is completed."

They were soldiers, so they had to prioritize orders. Only after they completed their mission would they consider rescuing survivors.

"Yes!"

Inside the cabin, everyone responded to the captain's orders.

The helicopter did not linger and quickly flew towards its destination.

Yang Bo, unaware that he had been exposed, walked out of the safety passage.

Staring at the departing helicopter, he remained speechless for a long time, and finally:

"The good news is that I know there are living people in this world. Since that's the case, I might as well take this opportunity to go downstairs and grind some monsters, just to celebrate."

His voice was very calm, without any emotional expression.

Re-crafting a stone axe, Yang Bo considered it and took out the [Leather] dropped by the rats.

"I'll make a set of leather armor to save my life first. I'll splurge a little today."

The first set of defensive equipment in 'Minecraft' is the leather armor set, but very few people make it.

Because the armor value it provides is pitifully low, and the durability is also very low.

Each 1 point of armor value can negate 0.8% ~ 4% of the damage, reaching 16% ~ 80% at 20. However, even if the armor points are higher, it can only withstand a maximum of 80% of the damage.

After thinking for a while, Yang Bo spent a total of 12 [Leather] to make a [Leather Chestplate] and a pair of [Leather Boots].

The two pieces of equipment together provided 4 points of armor value. It couldn't be said it was useless, but it was better than nothing.

Putting the two pieces of equipment in the equipment bar, the brown leather equipment appeared on his body.

Moving around a bit, his body didn't feel any discomfort, as if the leather equipment was just a phantom.

Touching the tough leather chestplate, Yang Bo thought, 'If only it could be invisible like a shield…'

As soon as this thought popped up, the brown leather equipment on his body all disappeared, but the armor value on the status bar did not disappear.

Such a convenient ability made Yang Bo feel that his golden finger was too considerate.

"At least I won't have to worry about being seen wearing a [Turtle Shell] in the future!"

Without stopping, he ran from the safety passage to the fourth floor. The scene that met his eyes shocked him.

Many white, blood vessel-like things were spreading upstairs along the walls, which reminded him of a game he had played before.

'Prototype'.

It's just that these things are not the bloody red color.

His arrival caused a commotion below. Some small mushroom people appeared in the mist, and there were signs of more and more gathering.

"These… the little mushroom people in the mist seem to be stronger."

If the little mushroom people he encountered at the beginning were malnourished teenagers, then this group of little mushroom people now were iron-pumping strongmen.

Unfortunately, they can only rage uselessly on the first floor now.

The stairs leading to the second and third floors have already been knocked down by him. He even deliberately set up walls on the fourth and fifth floors, so he doesn't have to worry…

"Crap!"

Those strong, big mushroom people were actually captured by the white blood vessels on the wall and slowly integrated into the wall. This scene made Yang Bo's scalp tingle.

As more and more monsters merged into the wall, a staircase leading upstairs appeared on the first floor.

Not only that, but he also discovered that as those monsters slowly merged into the wall, even the white blood vessels beside him were like they had taken a blue pill, and the speed of their spread was frightening.

"What kind of tentacle exhibition! This thing even has a fusion function!"

This greatly exceeded Yang Bo's expectations.

Taking out a red apple, he took a bite directly.

[The delicious food makes you feel a burst of joy in your body and mind.]

[Maximum health +1]

Looking at the prompt, Yang Bo took out a brick from his backpack and threw it down hard.

Bang…

[Health 27 / 32]
