This trait is simply extraordinary, unmatched even by science fiction. Furthermore, animals here do not need to relieve themselves, which became one of the key reasons for Yun Xiao Yi to decide to set up a Livestock Pen in the backyard of the villa. Otherwise, if they were like real animals that produced waste, managing and maintaining the environment would become quite complicated. The smell of excrement would be unbearable!
Yun Xiao Yi had mastered this mining method to perfection. He rolled up his sleeves and quickly struck the hard granite with his pickaxe. The sound of clanging echoed like dancing notes, and the efficiency of the pickaxe was astonishing. Even when faced with granite as hard as stone, it became as soft as tofu under the relentless strikes.
In just a few seconds, an entire chunk of granite shattered, transforming into a fist-sized mini Block that shimmered slightly in the air, visible only to him. He casually picked up these small Blocks and tossed them into his backpack before swiftly pulling out a Dirt Block to fill the gap.
In about ten minutes, he had replaced the entire surface of the planting area with soft soil. Meanwhile, the Livestock Pen remained untouched, still smooth and intact with its original granite surface. This was due to specific reasons related to animals in Minecraft. On one hand, animals in Minecraft do not feel hunger. Even if they are not allowed to graze, their survival status remains unaffected.
This is true for both sheep and other creatures. Even after tasting a bite of food, they will continue to grow healthily along their predetermined growth trajectory. This not only overturns Einstein's theories but would leave even aliens speechless.
On the other hand, the animals here do not produce waste. It is this characteristic that gives Yun Xiao Yi the confidence to set up a small breeding ground in her backyard. If these virtual animals required daily care like those in the real world, the unbearable smell would be unimaginable.
After completing the renovation of the planting area, the next step was to begin experimenting with crops. The first on the list was Wheat. In "Minecraft," the cultivation requirements for Wheat are not strict. As long as there is a light source, moisture, and loose soil, it is sufficient for growth. Even in a waterless environment, Wheat can still survive, albeit slowly.
However, the Wheat seeds currently in hand are products of the real world and need to be planted and converted into game assets before further action can be taken. This conversion process is relatively simple. Yun Xiao Yi dug a long trench along the muddy terrain and placed Infinite Water Source Blocks at intervals of a few meters. As water gradually flowed and met adjacent sources, a gentle stream formed.
This feature would not only keep Einstein awake under Jiucuan but would also astonish even the Three-Body Civilization from "The Three-Body Problem."
Furthermore, the creatures in parentheses do not require excretion. This is precisely why Yun Xiao Yi established a breeding area in the garden of his mansion. If the animals had the same needs as livestock in reality—eating, drinking, and excreting—then that area would emit an unbearable stench of manure.
The creatures possess several characteristics, the first being that they do not feel hunger. Although sheep in the game may graze on grass, in reality, they would not starve or undergo any life changes even without grass to eat; this rule applies to other animals as well. From birth, regardless of whether food is provided, these animals will gradually grow according to preset parameters.
This feature not only causes Einstein to be unsettled under Jiucuan but also leaves beings from the Three-Body Planet in shock upon encountering them. The fact that these creatures do not need to excrete is equally impressive. This provides ample reason for Yun Xiao Yi to set up a livestock breeding area in his villa's backyard. If the animals behaved like real-world livestock, eating and excreting, the odor from their waste would be unimaginable.
After completing the construction of the crop planting area, it was time for the experimental phase. Yun Xiao Yi first selected Wheat as the subject of his experiment. In fact, planting Wheat under these conditions is quite lenient; as long as sunlight, water sources, and arable land are available, it can thrive. Even without a water source, it can survive, albeit growing very slowly on dry land.
The seeds used this time were products made in reality; once sown, they could be converted into in-game production. The conditions for this conversion are not complicated. Yun Xiao Yi first dug a long trench along a narrow strip of land and placed an infinite water source every five meters. These continuous streams of water converged to form a static flow.
In the game, each Water Cube is sufficient to nourish surrounding plots of land. This long stream is enough to cover all irrigation needs for the entire planting area. With ample water supply secured, it was time to cultivate the land.
Given that Yun Xiao Yi had previously attempted to make a hoe, he took out the Tool Station and placed it on the ground. Next, he put Iron Blocks and wood into the Tool Station in succession. After a moment...
