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

Chapter 169 The Monarch of the Crystal Dimension

That "king" has the ability to probe data and information.

I can spot a clone at a glance...

This suggests that the other party has most likely seen someone with the ability to create clones, as well as their clones, and may even have the ability to create clones themselves.

Shi Qian now wants to ask Xiao Sha again: does this world actually contain urban legends or fan fiction...?

Is that Wang really not a certain HB?

This feels like a random intrusion...

But that doesn't seem to be the thing to consider right now.

Rather, it's about what threat that "king" will pose to himself and the world.

However, Shi Qian still hasn't seen the "King's" true form, and doesn't even know where it is...

The reason Shi Qian asked Xiao Sha that question was that he himself also had an energy core, although its functions had not yet been fully developed.

However, all changes within the dimension, as well as the conditions of various organisms, can be clearly seen once one enters the core.

Moreover, even if you can't directly control the other party, you can bind them to a block or entity, thus indirectly controlling them.

Just like he used the boat to control Ah Qi.

Shi Qian would worry that if he were attached to the rock, the other party would be able to detect him and move the block so that he could not escape.

After all, it's the main body that's being visited...

In this uncertain situation, safety is still very important.

However, the information Shi Qian received from Xiao Sha put his mind at ease.

At least the main body will not be detected.

He has tested it himself and found that using the attachment ability to enter a block does not change the block's shape or information.

At least when the time comes, there won't be any problem running away...

Furong led Shiqian all the way to the palace.

The two chatted the whole time, but it was mostly small talk, and Shi Qian was the one listening.

We didn't get much further information.

When Shi Qian asked about the history of their dimension out of curiosity, Fu Rong shook her head and said that they could ask their monarch about that.

He felt it was inappropriate to ask any more questions...

Because the other party clearly didn't want to reveal anything, and directly asking about history made it seem like I was trying to gather intelligence.

However, I still gained something.

The dimension they are in now does not lack a sky.

However, the main city is indeed underground, and there are no living creatures on the surface, probably because they are all crystal people who cannot be exposed to the light for long.

This is a huge cave beneath a frozen black volcano.

The original void seems to have disappeared; this huge space was dug out later.

However, it's impossible to tell whether the terrain was dug out by hand or directly altered by their monarch using an energy core.

When Shi Qian asked Fu Rong about their monarch, she only praised him and didn't reveal any specific details.

However, it doesn't seem like they're in a state of being threatened.

He was genuinely a little confused...

Upon arriving at the palace gates, Shi Qian's anticipation had reached its peak.

I can't wait to see what this god-like figure described by Furong looks like. She really does seem like the person Furong initially mentioned coming to pay homage...

The door opened automatically as soon as the two arrived.

Shi Qian did not hear any sounds like the Red Stone Mechanism. After entering, he glanced to the side and saw no human or mechanical equipment.

This made Shi Qian increasingly certain that the other party possessed an energy core.

Upon entering, there were reflective blocks everywhere, making the interior of the palace noticeably brighter than the outside.

The palace itself is quite normal, with a large staircase that guides the eye upwards.

The monarch sat high on his throne.

Shi Qian had to look up to see him.

Because the other party's head was directly above that luminous tower, the monarch was facing a backlit direction.

Looking up from below, Shi Qian couldn't make out the other person's expression at all.

Is this the monarch of this dimension?

"Your Majesty, our distinguished guest has arrived."

Furong lowered her head, her body drooping involuntarily.

Shi Qian originally thought that the monarch would not respond to Furong at all, or would only reply with a "hmm" or something similar.

But I never expected him to do something like this.

"Didn't I tell you? You don't need to be so reserved. Look at you, you're doing it again."

As he spoke, the monarch rose from his throne and even took a few steps forward.

?

A huge question mark immediately popped into Shi Qian's head.

I knew you cared about the people's plight, but I didn't expect you to be so...approachable?

Shi Qian quickly turned to see Fu Rong's reaction.

"My lord, this is what I should do..."

She looked up, met her monarch's gaze, and still wore that genuine smile.

But Shi Qian thought none of this made sense. Was this correct?

Shouldn't it be something like being more cautious and meticulous?

Is there something wrong with the history I learned, or are those TV dramas or novels incorrect...?

Shi Qian's CPU was practically burning up because everything in front of him was so different from what he knew.

"Ah, sir, may I ask how you are addressed?"

The monarch noticed Shi Qian standing to the side and, when he asked this question, even went down a few steps.

The distance between the people is not so great anymore.

Seeing the other person come down, Shi Qian put aside the messy thoughts in his mind, such as "[This is still an Eastern monarch]", and went to greet him.

"My name is Shi Qian..."

Shi Qian really didn't know what to call himself.

Using this method feels a bit arrogant, since the opponent is a monarch, and using other methods seems inappropriate, but he doesn't have that much time to carefully choose.

"Oh, Mr. Shi, my name is Lingjiu Xu, it's a pleasure to meet you."

?

Dude, are you serious?

Is that a stark contrast?

You are a monarch! A monarch!

Your throne is still right behind you!

So, this fresh-faced girl just took the plunge?

what?

Is there such a stark contrast?

Upon hearing this, Shi Qian's pupils dilated in shock, and he stared at Ling Jiu Xu in disbelief.

A barrage of information and shouts bombarded my mind.

It really shattered his stereotypes about the word "monarch"...

He now seemed to understand why Furong praised Lingjiuxu so much. After meeting the monarch Furong had mentioned, he almost wanted to tell her directly that she had praised him well.

If this monarch has been like this since taking office, it's no wonder that everyone we see in this dimension looks so good.

"Come on, come on, don't just stand there, come here quickly."

Lingjiu led Shiqian and Furong to the top.

There was a row of chairs. Ling Jiu let Shi Qian sit wherever he wanted, and then he returned to the throne.

Once she returned, she seemed like a completely different person; her demeanor instantly changed.

Shi Qian felt that only in this moment of 09 could one truly be called a monarch.

It's hard to put into words, but once he sat on the throne, he exuded an aura of supreme authority, commanding the entire world...

When Lingjiu spoke again, his tone was quite different.
