"Really? Can an ordinary person achieve results with a hoe? What about a pickaxe? An axe? Will they be equally effective?"
With doubts lingering, Yun Xiao Yi said, "Let's not get too excited just yet. I need you to help me test some other tools."
Zhao Yong smirked, appearing unconcerned.
Immediately, Yun Xiao Yi took out a pickaxe from her backpack and pointed to the hard ground of the Livestock Area, which was covered in shallow red granite speckled with granules. "Try hitting the ground with this. Remember to strike multiple times."
Zhao Yong nodded and took the pickaxe.
Entering the Livestock Area, he noticed that the ground was made of solid granite. Even if an ordinary person exhausted themselves, they might not be able to break through this stone surface.
At that moment, Zhao Yong appeared more confident. Gripping the pickaxe tightly, he swung it down hard against the rock.
The clang of metal against stone echoed repeatedly. Although his efforts were nearly at their limit, the sounds continued unabated. However, the granite remained steadfast, with only minor surface damage from the impacts.
"Immortal Sir, is this working?" Zhao Yong's voice now lacked conviction.
As he watched Zhao Yong's actions, Yun Xiao Yi counted the number of strikes. Astonishingly, it had reached over two hundred.
If the scenario were to change in the game, it wouldn't matter if it were just a piece of granite or if one manually mined obsidian; that material would likely have shattered long ago. This indicates that the iron pickaxe seems to only function effectively in the hands of specific individuals, while for ordinary people, it behaves like an ordinary item.
But why can the Iron Hoe work for common people while the iron pickaxe cannot? Yun Xiao Yi felt as though he had caught a glimpse of some underlying pattern, yet he couldn't fully grasp it.
Well then, let's continue experimenting! With more attempts, he was sure he would find the answer. Alright, no more delays. Yun Xiao Yi took out an Iron Shovel and pointed it at the soil in the Crop Area. He decided to try using this Shovel to see what would happen.
Zhao Yong nodded in agreement, shaking his wrist to relieve fatigue before handing the iron pickaxe to Yun Xiao Yi. He then took hold of the Shovel and moved to the crop area, starting to dig vigorously.
One scoop, two scoops, three scoops—Zhao Yong's efforts nearly shaved off an entire side of the Standard Dirt Block, yet it still did not crumble. Observing this scene, a thoughtful glimmer flickered in Yun Xiao Yi's eyes as he quickly analyzed the connections between several tools in his mind.
At that moment, a spark of inspiration flashed through him. His eyes lit up as if he had suddenly understood the key to all these questions. The reason why the iron pickaxe and Iron Shovel did not work in the hands of ordinary people was simple: this ability was unique to Steve.
Whether it was the iron pickaxe, Iron Shovel, or the untested Iron Axe, these tools themselves did not possess the ability to destroy Blocks. They merely accelerated the process of breaking Blocks and improved work Efficiency.
However, ordinary people are not Steve; they lack the special ability to directly shatter objects. Therefore, even with the right tools, they would have no effect.
As for why the Iron Hoe can be effective in the hands of an ordinary person, it is because the ability to cultivate land is not unique to Steve; it is an inherent quality of the Iron Hoe itself. Thus, when an ordinary person wields the Iron Hoe, they can effortlessly transform uncultivated land into fertile soil, just like Steve.
Similarly, Leather Boots and Iron Armor also have effects on ordinary people because defense is a characteristic of these two types of equipment.
Yun Xiao Yi felt a surge of joy in his heart; it turned out that this world has its own inherent logic and is not chaotic. Once he found the pattern, he could utilize the rules of this world more effectively. Just as demonstrated by the Iron Hoe, since ordinary people can also apply its working principle, in the future, cultivating farmland would no longer require his personal involvement. He could simply let others wield the Iron Hoe to accomplish the task with ease.
This way, he saved a great deal of labor. It was as if he had transformed from a hardworking farmer into a landlord who reaped the benefits without toil. Yun Xiao Yi gently patted Zhao Yong on the shoulder in approval and said, "Well done." He then took out a new Iron Hoe from his bag and handed it to him, saying, "This Iron Hoe is your reward."
However, he did not forget to remind him: "Please note that the durability of the Iron Hoe is limited; it can only cultivate about half an acre of land. In Minecraft, all iron tools have a very short lifespan when converted to real-world usage."
From a practical standpoint, many tools in Minecraft may not be as durable as their real-world counterparts. For example, a decent-quality Iron Hoe in reality could be used continuously for several years or even decades, just like the old fan that Yun Xiao Yi's family had when he was a child.
