The creation of the metaverse has set the world on fire

Before, there were too few torches and the angle was wrong.

The entire underground mine could never be illuminated.

And now, under the strong light of more than a dozen torches, I can finally see how big this underground mine is!

Ridiculously big!

It’s almost as big as a football field!

There are minerals everywhere.

Black, red, yellow, brown, green, blue...

All in all, at first glance, the mineral resources are extremely rich.

“This time…it really came out!”

Miss Zhou opened her mouth slightly, her face full of shock.

After regaining her senses, she began to get busy, chiseling away the minerals one by one.

The low ones are easy to deal with, but the high ones can only be piled up little by little with stones under your feet. When the height is right, you can use a pickaxe to chisel it down.

"A group of coal and twenty pieces, a group of redstone and six pieces, sixteen pieces of gold, and thirty-seven pieces of iron ore..."

Sister Zhou opened her backpack and counted her gains. Her level also reached level 13 as she mined.

"Nine emeralds, forty-two lapis lazuli..."

"Shen Xing, what are emeralds and lapis lazuli for?"

Sister Zhou searched the synthesis table but couldn't find the function of emerald and lapis lazuli.

Shen Xing replied: "Emeralds can be used to buy goods from villagers, and lapis lazuli is used for enchanting."

In fact, in the first version Shen Xing played, lapis lazuli was not used for enchantment. Later, with the update of the version, lapis lazuli had the effect of enchantment.

"There are NPCs in this game?" Sister Zhou widened her eyes.

Shen Xing rolled his eyes: "That's nonsense, aren't those monsters you encountered before NPCs? Villagers and merchants are also considered NPCs."

"Then why haven't I seen any villagers or anything?"

"How long have you been playing?" Shen Xing said speechlessly, "This world is infinitely large. If you haven't seen it, it only means that the scope of your exploration is too small. The villagers are usually in the village."

"Oh." Sister Zhou nodded and said with a smile, "Then can I go find the villagers and merchants first? I want to see what they look like and buy some things. Nine emeralds should be able to buy a lot of things."

"Of course you can. It's your freedom to play however you want." Shen Xing replied, "But, the emeralds you have are not enough."

"Not enough?" Sister Zhou raised her eyebrows. "Come on, these are emeralds. If they were in the real world, one could be exchanged for a villa. I have nine now. Isn't that enough?"

"Comparing the game with reality, there is something wrong with your brain." Shen Xing laughed angrily, "In this world, emeralds are equivalent to basic currency and are not very valuable. Do you understand?"

"Okay." Sister Zhou nodded helplessly. She thought she had made a fortune, but Shen Xing poured a bucket of cold water on her.

Next, Sister Zhou walked back up the stairs to the cabin.

The first thing Sister Zhou did when she came back was to put the iron ore and gold ore into the furnace, and added a group of coal to start refining.

Soon, thirty-seven iron ingots and sixteen gold ingots were obtained.

Sister Zhou was very excited, and without thinking, she made a golden axe, a golden draft, and a golden sword.

There are five gold ingots left.

"Haha, no wonder everyone loves gold. The color and texture are so beautiful!" Sister Zhou looked at the gold tools in her hand and exclaimed with satisfaction.

Seeing this, Shen Xing smiled helplessly and said, "It's useless if it looks good. It's useless if it doesn't last long. How does the saying go? A silver-like wax-headed gun looks good but is useless."

"The most cost-effective equipment is iron equipment."

Sister Zhou frowned, "That's impossible, shouldn't gold be higher quality than iron?"

"Would you know if you try it?"

Sister Zhou didn't believe it, so she immediately made a set of iron axes, iron pickaxes, and iron swords.

She glanced at the damage comparison between the two materials.

Golden Sword +4 Attack Damage.

Iron Sword +6 Attack Damage.

Golden Axe +3 attack damage.

Iron Axe +5 attack damage.

Gold Pickaxe +2 Attack Damage.

Iron pickaxe +4 attack damage.

After a comparison, golden tools and weapons are completely inferior to iron tools and weapons.

"Oh my god, what's going on!"

Sister Zhou felt like crying but had no tears.

Hurry and run outside.

Use a golden axe and an iron axe to chop down a tree at the same time.

Fortunately.

The golden axe can chop down trees much faster than the iron axe.

But at the same time, the durability consumption rate is much faster than that of the iron axe.

"It's really not as good as iron!" Sister Zhou was speechless. If she had known this, she should not have synthesized gold tools and weapons.

Seeing this, Shen Xing chuckled and said, "I told you a long time ago that the cost performance is not as good as the iron pick. However, the mining speed of the gold pick is faster than that of the diamond pick."

"It's still somewhat useful." Sister Zhou felt a little relieved, and then asked, "Besides making equipment, what other uses does gold have?"

Shen Xing said: "It has many uses. For example, gold is needed to make golden apples."

"Golden apple?" Sister Zhou said, "It sounds awesome. How can I make it? Teach me now!"

"It's simple. Put an ordinary apple in the middle of the workbench and surround it with a circle of gold ingots."

Sister Zhou hurried back to the house to start making it.

At the moment of synthesis, an ordinary apple was instantly covered with golden light, dazzling!

"Wow, it looks really good, but is this thing edible?" Sister Zhou couldn't help but worry.

"Nonsense, golden apples are not only edible, but also have many magical uses..."

"for example?"

"Taming horses and treating zombie villagers. You can't access these now. The greatest use for them to you right now is to eat them." Shen Xing said.

"Okay, then I'll try it?" Sister Zhou ate the whole golden apple, and blue bubbles suddenly appeared all over her body. Two golden red hearts were directly added to the health bar in the lower right corner!

At the same time, a strong feeling of fullness also appears, and the hunger level is instantly restored!

"Oh my god, this feels so good!"

Sister Zhou clenched her fists and felt full of strength.

However, this state only lasted for a dozen seconds before disappearing.

"Is that the end?" Sister Zhou was a little speechless, "It didn't last at all!"

"How long do you want to last?" Shen Xing said with a smile, "This is originally used to save your life."

"Oh, that's right. Just to try out the effect of the golden apple, I wasted eight gold ingots. What a huge loss!" Sister Zhou looked painful.

Shen Xing added: "Gold is quite common, so it's not a big loss. If it was diamonds, it would definitely be a huge loss."

After hearing this, Sister Zhou felt a little better. She looked at the slightly dim room and then at the bright sunlight outside. Suddenly, a sharp contrast was formed. Sister Zhou couldn't help but ask, "By the way, are there windows in this game?"

"Of course. You've looked at the synthesis table so many times. Didn't you notice it?" Shen Xing said.

"I did find it, but those windows are different from what I said." Sister Zhou murmured, "Those windows are Chinese style, and they are very difficult to make. They require a lot of materials. The windows I'm talking about are those that can let light in, allowing sunlight to shine in from outside."

"Hey, why didn't you tell me earlier? Isn't that glass? Stupid!" Shen Xing said speechlessly, "Go to the river to dig up sand, bring it back and burn it."
