Block Civilization Begins!

"It's only been half a month, and a new civilization is already starting."

"I heard the Free Nation next door got a crafting recipe and actually forged a bow and arrow!"

"Heavens, ranged weapons! How are we supposed to deal with that?"

"Those darn green exploding monsters have already blown up so many cities..."

The melancholic discussions of passersby reached his ears.

He opened his eyes, and a large Screen appeared in the sky, displaying a world of perfectly flat, square blocks, as if arranged by someone with extreme OCD.

Gu Yu was completely bewildered.

He had transmigrated to this world three days ago, and everything was the same as his previous life, except for the giant numbers displayed in the sky.

[Time remaining until next civilization begins: Ten minutes and twelve seconds.]

Below this large text was an incredibly familiar scene.

A world constructed from blocks, with no round shapes visible in the trees or animals – a world that defied all logic.

"Is MC here?"

Even though it was just a corner of it, Gu Yu knew clearly that it was my world, MC!

From what he understood, it had appeared six months ago in the form of an arena. Periodically, various civilizations would be activated, and contestants would be randomly selected to participate.

Countries would form teams, and the participating Players had to ensure their survival.

Each civilization was different. Any items obtained would be returned to their respective countries multiple times over; otherwise, the opposite would happen.

If a Player died, not only would there be no reward, but the entire nation would face severe punishment!

It was like the Hunter Civilization half a month ago, where people's goal was hunting, and stronger hunting abilities led to higher status.

Every participating Player started as a beginner hunter. Not only did they have to complete daily hunting quests, but they were also ordered around by higher-ranking hunters.

To receive better treatment, one had to first improve their hunting level.

Originally, their Kyushu Nation was far ahead, with the highest levels.

But after the neighboring country obtained the bow and arrow, everything changed abruptly!

Without ranged attacks, their contestants could only be worn down and die. Not only did they receive no rewards, but over a million Creepers also descended.

On that day, explosions ravaged Kyushu, countless places were destroyed, and countless people perished!

After this incident, they suffered greatly, and the entire nation was filled with devastation and despair, unable to recover.

In contrast, the Free Nation, after leaving the civilization, obtained the Hunter's Bloodline and everything flourished!

"A bow and arrow, isn't the crafting recipe just three strings and three sticks?"

Gu Yu's expression was a little strange.

Although this was the most basic knowledge, something any MC Player knew by heart.

Not to mention he was a veteran Player of the game; such basic knowledge was etched into his very bones.

But this world had no MC my world, and everyone's understanding of games was zero.

For these block characteristics that deviated from physics, even the most brilliant talents couldn't figure them out in a short time!

In the Block Civilization, it took the lives of three contestants and two civilizations to discover this precious crafting recipe.

"The Screen changed?"

He looked up. The countdown was still ongoing, but the Screen was no longer showing the Block World.

Several large characters were particularly eye-catching.

'Kyushu Research Institute'

Kyushu's top research institution, gathering elite talents from all over the country.

Since the arena opened, they had been working day and night to increase the survival rate of the selected contestants.

The figure of a middle-aged man appeared, and the crowd let out gasps of surprise.

"It's him, he's out!"

"Heavens, to see him in person in my lifetime!"

"The God, the God has appeared!"

"The only big shot who safely passed the Block Civilization!"

"He can actually connect to the arena Screen. Did he use a special item?"

"He's been alerted too, could it be?"

Kyushu Nation was blessed with talented people, and there were always a few geniuses appearing.

He was a retired soldier and an outdoors survivalist who was selected by the arena to participate in the Parkour Civilization. He eventually forged golden boots and returned as a Parkour Master.

He was hailed as the God of Parkour, codenamed 'Fries'!

"Everyone!"

Fries spoke, his steady voice clearly reaching everyone's ears.

The crowd quieted down, listening intently to the God of Parkour's explanation.

"Everyone knows very well how much damage the Creepers caused us last time, and according to the rules, if we fail again."

"The punishment will be multiplied tenfold, and tens of millions of Creepers will descend upon Kyushu!"

Unlike the Creepers in the game that cause explosions of a few blocks, the monsters that descend as punishment will have their strength doubled.

This means each Creeper can cause destruction ranging from hundreds to thousands of meters!

If we're lucky, three to five will descend entirely in the border regions and won't cause much damage.

If we're unlucky, even one descending in a city area will cause a devastating blow!

A million Creepers already caused Kyushu to lose nearly half its territory. What about tens of millions?

Kyushu would likely be completely wiped off the map!

"However, everyone, please don't panic. Thanks to the reward from the Giant Civilization last time, I will activate a rule-based item."

"This time, the Players of the Block Civilization will undoubtedly be the most knowledgeable about the game within Kyushu!"

Gu Yu's eyes lit up.

He was worried he wouldn't be randomly selected, but now it was a sure thing!

Fighting against these novices who can't even make a bow and arrow, his participation would be a dimensional strike!

Meanwhile, in the Kyushu Research Institute.

After using the item, Fries's expression was extremely serious.

He had successfully survived one civilization, forged the golden boots, and achieved the highest score.

Undoubtedly, he was currently the most knowledgeable person about the game in Kyushu.

While he said not to panic, he knew very well in his heart.

He didn't have the confidence to survive this civilization safely!

The more he understood, the more he realized how terrifying the Block Civilization was!

Not only were there various rules and restrictions, but also monsters that could appear at any time.

And enemies who might stab you in the back at any moment!

He knew that his survival through the Parkour Civilization was mostly due to luck.

"Have you still not researched the design blueprints for the bow and arrow?"

If he knew how to make a bow and arrow, having this ranged weapon would greatly increase Fries's survival rate.

Unfortunately, even the top scientists couldn't provide a precise answer yet.

"Negotiations failed, they are unwilling to share this technology with us."

Looking at the old man in the white coat, Fries had expected this.

In the Block Civilization, they were all competitors, and they might attack each other at any time. In such a situation, how could they help an enemy?

"Dean Qi, thank you for your hard work."

"But after our research, we believe that although things in the Block World don't conform to physics, there are still patterns to be found."

"Judging from the shape of the bow and arrow, I think you can start with wooden and resilient materials."

Sighing, Dean Qi shook his head helplessly.

Their understanding of the Block World was still too limited!

"I'm sorry, Fries, Kyushu's survival rests on you."

The countdown was getting closer. Fries patted the item in his pocket and took a deep breath.

Having embarked on this path of no return, only the item in his pocket could bring him peace of mind.

"With this god-tier item, I can at least save my life."

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and the Screen entered the countdown.
