Minecraft: Is this still the Minecraft I used to play?

Chapter 83 The Strange Person Who Can Write?

That day, a live stream link on the forum was immediately highlighted and pushed to the top, with a rather sensational title.

[Breaking News! A massive non-guild gathering place battles against an incredibly powerful monster group! Who will win?!]

Ran Xiao was immediately drawn to the title, even though he hadn't watched many of his peers' live streams before.

Now that I have some free time, I really enjoy watching it.

He knew about the gathering place for non-guild players; when it was first established, someone was streaming it, and he even watched some clips.

I never expected it would be a group of "acquaintances".

Super Monster Group...

It must be the boss's fault, but I don't know which pair it is.

The forum only had a title and no live feed; he only saw it after clicking through.

This group consists of two large zombies and one small zombie, making them quite recognizable. They were previously blocking players near the gathering area, and now they're planning to start a direct battle.

However, since the players are in the sky, they can't get up there; instead, they are more vulnerable to attack from below.

The live stream was started by a player who was having fun. He had been killed by these monsters before, so he was very interested in their movements.

This time, I immediately started a live stream as soon as I saw the monsters, and the monsters were quite conspicuous.

Jiang Da Er and Jiang Da San, along with Jiang Xiao Yi and a group of monsters behind them, completely surrounded the area where the daily players were going down.

These monsters all had equipment they had previously stolen from the players, so none of them caught fire.

The players had already collected the water used for going up and down when they saw them coming, so when the zombies saw the water coming, they missed them.

He paced anxiously down below.

The players weren't in a hurry to fight; they were quite curious about how the creature had suddenly appeared.

Because previously, a player led nearly a third of the entire settlement to find them.

The monsters smelled the scent and ran away, giving the players no chance to surround them.

Moreover, these monsters are quite intelligent; they know how to establish secret bases.

They used a Creeper to blast deep holes, and they blasted several of them at once.

It's a textbook example of a cunning rabbit with three burrows; players can't find it at all and often get counter-killed.

The number of monsters hasn't changed much this time, so why do they dare to come and target player gathering areas?

Although there are still many mindless monsters spawning in the light-blocked areas below the floating islands where players gather, even adding those wouldn't be enough.

Just as the players were completely bewildered, the monsters moved.

However... the method is somewhat peculiar...

The monsters moved in unison, slowly changing their positions.

From the player's perspective, the monsters magically formed the Chinese character for "water".

The barrage exploded.

"Holy crap, what the heck? Am I still half asleep? Have the monsters turned into words?"

"I shouldn't be blind... but can someone tell me what happened? It just turned into words like that..."

"Never mind the words for now. Do the monsters mean for the players to go easy on them? What are they trying to do?"

"These monsters are too smart... I need the Great Demon's tutorial on training pets. I also want my Border Collie to learn to read."

"Don't even think about it upstairs. Border Collies wouldn't stoop to that. But how did you raise that big devil? Doesn't he never go out anymore?"

...

Not to mention the viewers in the live stream, even the players who were waiting by the sky island for the monsters to move were burning out of their CPUs.

They quickly went to call the person in charge of the gathering place to inquire about the situation.

The person in charge initially thought it was a joke, but when he got to the sky island, he was stunned.

"Tell me, is this a monster?"

The player who was having fun heard the noise and turned his camera around, which happened to capture this scene.

"Yeah, that bunch down there is the group of monsters that often ambush and kill players near our base. I saw with my own eyes how they turned into words, and I even recorded it live."

The man nodded firmly.

After all, he might not recognize the others, but a monster with a full set of diamond armor is standard equipment for the Great Demon Lord's family. In addition, considering the number and size of them, and his experience of being surrounded and killed once, he would never mistake this group of monsters.

The other players were also egging them on, discussing whether or not to let the water go down.

If those monsters come up the water and take over their base, it will be a huge loss.

But if we don't let them out, what if these monsters really have some urgent matter and need the player's help...?

These are monsters from the Great Demon Lord's family, after all, and they have their own thoughts. They had already heard of the monsters' reputation on the forums.

Moreover, this could be an opportunity to connect with Shi Qian.

Shi Qian is the most mysterious character in the game. He has the same appearance as the player, can talk, and seems to have appeared out of nowhere.

There has been no official statement regarding Shi Qian; in fact, two of Shi Qian's posts have been highlighted.

However, Shi Qian explicitly told Ran Xiao that he was neither a player nor anyone in reality.

And those strange skills are clearly related to monsters; his title of "Great Demon" is also because of monsters.

A being possessing all the abilities of a monster is nothing more than a demon.

They could also give Ran Xiao that strange ability. Although they didn't know exactly what Shi Qian had given Ran Xiao, they could guess.

Whether it's live streaming, screen recording, or taking photos, Ran Xiao has tested it and found that others cannot see his panel.

Moreover, not only does Shi Qian possess consciousness, but the monsters he brings out also have brains.

Outside of the game, there are even players on player forums who specifically create content related to Shi Qian.

After those photos of players with Shi Qian in the water were posted, the posts were immediately flooded with comments from players who liked Shi Qian.

Which gamer wouldn't want to get involved with such strange and mysterious things?

After thinking it over, the base manager decided to release the water anyway.

Only the three monsters wearing diamond armor could come up; the rest of the players were on top, armed and ready to fight.

If these monsters aren't actually in a hurry, but are just trying to take over their lair because they have no other players to kill, then we'll be in trouble.

The person in charge went to have someone call the players to gather or log off.

Some casual players took the advice and logged off; they genuinely didn't want to fight.

Besides, being squeezed together with other players means you can't even watch the drama unfold; it's better to just log off and watch the live stream.

The remaining players were curious about what was going on, so they grabbed their weapons and equipment and came out of their houses.

The entire downhill area was surrounded by players.

The players in the innermost circle were fully prepared, their bows strung.

The players were very enthusiastic, so it wasn't long before they were ready.

The person in charge, seeing that it was about time, asked for a bucket of water and poured it down the side.

The water jet flowed all the way to the ground.
