Hello and Welcome back to my blog!
In my last post on Minecraft, I talked about how 
It was time to let them have lots of babies. We gave them a lot of food and beds to sleep. And a bit of privacy (nvm, we gave them none...lol). Look at
Soon, we had an army of babies. They were all going to take us profession and sell some enchanted books to us while some of them would buy our sticks. We were planning to sell them thousands of sticks and enchant all of our armour.
We made another segment and got a mending librarian. This enchantment would repair all of our weapons and tools and we won't need to waste more diamonds. I made a couple of small farms like a cow farm to get us lots of leather for the books and chicken for feathers and food.
We also mined for hours and hours and got more than a stack of diamonds. This was enough to fill our diamond needs and we finally switched from occasional iron tools to all diamond tools and armour.
We would occasionally stumble into the Ancient City that was deep under our house. It houses one of the scariest mobs in Minecraft, the Warden. This guy has about 250 hearts of health, can one-shot kill you, blinds you when you get near him and has a range attack that can target you through solid blocks. This is a literal nightmare and we tend to stay away from it, at least for now.
We came up and fed the villagers, and made more of them sell enchanted books to us. We got Mending, Unbreaking III, Fortune III, Efficiency IV, Flame and Infinity. Love all of these enchants. The only good ones that are missing now are Looting III and Protection IV.
We even got a Silk Touch Pickaxe!
After gearing up with diamond armour we decided to change our focus to collecting more materials and building some more stuff around us. And one of the best available building blocks around us is the wool from sheep. We dyed a lot of them and they are giving us colourful blocks for our future projects.
But we needed more... so we watched a tutorial for an automatic wool farm from the sheep and coloured all the sheep with the 16 available colours in Minecraft.
It was not easy to make, we had to use a lot of observers, dispensers and hoppers and these drained almost all of our reserved iron.
Getting all the sheep in their respective holes was a bit tricky so we used Leads. But we didn't have all the possible colours so we had to look up how to get the remaining colors. Some of the colours were secondary colours made by mixing two primary colour dyes.
This is how the entire farm looks like now. It keeps running and we don't have to do anything.
The way this works is genius too, the observer block observes the glass block where the sheep is standing to notice any changes and if the sheep eats the grass a change is detected which gives the signal to the dispenser to dispense the sheer and cut the wool. The fallen blocks on the ground are sucked by a hopper under the grass block and placed in a chest below.
I love these automatic farms in Minecraft and learning to do these fun stuff with Redstone is quite interesting. I created a simple auto smelter too a long time ago. I doubled its production capability by adding another furnace to it. We put all of our raw ores when we come from a mining session straight to it.
One important thing was missing from our world. A portal to the Nether world!
Usually, I don't take this long to go into the nether but we took our time in this world to get geared up and have enchanted armour and weapons before going into the hell dimension.
Our test subjects were some chickens...lol. These buggers are everywhere in our place. I think we have a chicken infestation. We bred them too much.
Anyways the nether spawn was so bad, that we are in the worst possible biome right in the middle of the Basalt Delta. Hate this one. We had to make a long tunnel to cross this barren and dangerous biome.
We spent a couple of hours in the nether, gathering materials like Glowstone, trading with the Piglins, and fighting hoglins and deadly ghasts before finding a nether fortress. The 10-chunk render distance limitation on this free server is not good for finding structures in the Nether.
The fight against the Blazes was not too bad. It was easy at first when we had a few fire resistance potions to spare but it soon became a tough battle after we ran out of them. I didn't want to come here again so we got a lot of blaze rods and filled our pocket with all the riches found in this place and headed home.
But I have to mention here how bravely,
In the next post, I will tell you about a new project we started. First, we need to figure out some things. Thanks for reading to the end.
