Your boy Bubs back and we have another episode of Ice Cream Warehouse server. Um, you can hear all these zombies outside. Horrible. But I finally have a bed. So, let me see who's on the server right now. He he blew up by a creeper. Hey, can you leave really quick so I can sleep? So guys, to um did a little bit uh this is the same day as the last episode, but we've we've been kind of grinding out a little bit. Uh went all the way down there, started a little bit of a strip mine, found a big cave, like huge cave, found five diamonds. Um made a pickaxe, mined out around 30 uh pieces of obsidian. So, I mean, we have a portal now. And today I wanted to go inside the Nether with you guys for the first time. No one's been inside the Nether yet. Oh my god, those guys are so annoying. I turn them down. Okay, but anyway, no one's been inside the Nether yet. So, I wanted to be the first uh to actually explore it. And I think I have iron somewhere. I'm not sure where. Maybe in one of these. Nope, it's all the way down here. Well, you guys get to see the mine for a second. I want to get all ironed up. What I want to do today, I killed an Enderman. Here's an ender portal, by the way. Kind of made it look nice. Have not gotten in it yet, so it might lag a little bit when I go in there. But, uh, my I killed an enderman and I got an ender pearl and I want to make an ender chest. Um, just because I want to keep my really good stuff in there. Not saying that anybody will steal it. have a a kind of a pack not to steal anything from anybody else, but some things, you know, you don't you don't remember if you if you have it or not, or maybe you think like you accidentally put your diamonds inside someone else's box and oh hey, I forgot how many diamonds I had. You know, it just kind of takes off the easiness. So, here's the strip mine. Um, found this lava. I just kind of left it here for light, but I put a a walkway around it just so I I couldn't get in there, like a safety rail. No, let me see. I think it's in here. No, here. No. Oh, no. Where's my iron? I don't have any on me. Oh, looks like we might be going to the Nether with just our boots. Last episode, I did die. The stuff was lost, so we had to recuperate everything. Yeah, wasn't fun. I'm going to need some food, too. So, Oh, man. I was not prepared. I should have I should have got prepared. Every video I should get prepared, but you know what? We're just going to go in unprepared and see how it goes. Um, I guess we're going to hopefully not die, but we'll see. Oh, I need to put stairs on here, too. It's such a long track. But see, now this mine I might actually keep. Um, I'm thinking I'm going to be working right out here. Like I said before, in this area, um, I have quite a few plans. I'm probably going to work some things out in creative mode so I can come back and uh, get it done. But I need a lot of sand for that. So, I'm going to um maybe after this episode, maybe not. I'm not sure. U, maybe when I get back, we'll see. But I have to go to another desert way out there, get all the sand that I can, uh, set up another portal, come back, yada yada, over and over and over. Are there any bones out here? Zombie flesh. Zombie flesh. No skeletons, though. He can come back on. Oh. Um, okay. See, I don't want to do this. I don't want to take out my potatoes, but you got to do what you got to do, I guess. And I believe that one. Yeah, it's a potato. Okay, let's go pick up these potatoes. That should at least give us a little bit. I want to go in there. I want to find the fortress. Oh, there's my iron. Hey, did I not check this furnace before? What am I? Huh? I need some more coal, I think. Yeah, need more coal. But want to go in. I want to find a another I mean, I want to find a um what are they called? The fortress. the the Nether Fortress and I want to get a blaze rod so I can make the ender chest. I have the ender pearl, have the obsidian, just need the ender eye. Actually, the actual eye of ender. But let's put some coal in here. And let's put our food. All right. And I'll be right back when that's done. All right, we're back. and full iron suit. Uh I put away my diamond pick. I don't want to lose it. And I know I say I'm going to die a lot in my uh other series, but I don't plan on dying that much in this series. Well, hopefully. I mean, you can you never really know. But uh just in case, put it away cuz you never know when you might need a diamond pick. But everything else, I think I have everything. Um hope so. I have a flint and steel just in case the portal gets knocked out by a blaze. I I mean a ghast. I do not have a bow though. Haven't found string. I mean, I have like killed spiders, but and I might have enough string to make one, but let's go without it. Let's have some fun. Let's see. Oh, and I forgot nether quarts, too. It's really good for levels. I can also make an enchanting table. All right. And already I hear a gas. That's wonderful. This isn't a bad place. I'll pick up some of this nether quartz some other time. No need to deal with it now. I don't need levels yet. We don't even have our enchanting table up yet, so might as well not waste it. Where are we going? I'm not going to cut away anymore. I'm going to keep you guys with me from now on. This is not the way to go. I can hear gas, I think, up there. I think. I don't know. We'll see. At least we're nice like a nice little room. I mean, portal can't really get shot that easy. H. Let's dig towards them. Huh. These servers are really good servers. I I got to say. Oh, I guess we're going to get some quartz anyway. Oh, block lag. And I just said the server was good, too. Look at this. Okay. Well, I guess it is rendering and everything. So, come on now. I don't know if we're going to be able to get down safely at least. Can always just jump down. Do I have Yeah, I have a bunch. Let's just go take the damage. Eat a potato. Okay. We need to find a fortress. And my screen is super small right now. A little bit of lag. Not much. My screen is super small. So if I miss one, don't reach too hard. Oh, I'm looking everywhere. Okay gas. Okay, let's see how many times we're going to die by this. Oh my gosh. Um, I'm going to turn them down really quick. Nobody needs to hear that. Annoying gas. Oh, let's What's up here? Okay, got to go. Got to go. Got to go. Got to venture. Oh, I should have left a trail of how to get back actually. Uh, I don't have any torches on me. Oh, no. I'll just I'll do this. Need cobblestone every now and then. That's not fun. Is that lava there, but just not showing? Oh, big lag. I should have came in here first and rendered it out, but whatever. Where is our fortress? We want your blaze rods, please. I've been watching the UMG Call of Duty tournament. A lot of upsets. If you haven't watched yourself, um it's actually over by the time you guys Oh, it won't be over. The finals will be on by the time you see this. But a lot of upsets on the first day. This is Saturday that I'm recording. I just bit my tongue. But this is Saturday uh when I'm recording this. So, so far a lot of upsets. Um I don't know if you guys care to hear about that or not, but if you guys watch Call of Duty, you guys might just watch Minecraft. We'll see. But very interesting day. We just got Cove. Like you saw before, he just now joined the server. He's a fresh guy. And he died by a creeper right away. I am going super far. I don't not do not know if I'm going to be able to make it back. I should have brought obsidian. Okay. I should have at least taken the coordinates on it. I might have to have someone come help me get out of here when I'm done. But we're going to get that blaze rod. I'm probably going in the exact opposite way that I should be. There probably was one right next to me, but I just walked away from it. Oh my gosh, this lag though. I'm I'm getting all this lag because you see this lava. These are brand new areas. So, this lava is just now flowing and it's causing a lot of issues with lag, but we'll have to deal with it. I see some fire up here. Okay. Oh gosh, I'm almost thinking about going back. I don't know if it'd be a good idea or bad idea to go back right now, but yeah, I actually don't see anything here. We're going to go back. [Laughter] Oh, he's a character. Did I come through this way at least? Nope. That much was easier. Maybe if we go back it won't be so laggy though, too. That'd be nice. I sort of know the coordinates. Um, actually I know the coordinates of my house at least. Uh, I can just divide those by eight and probably come up with the coordinates that I need here. Lots of glowstone, though. Always good. Oh, there's a cobblestone. Good deal. See, I wish I would have brought torches, but at least cobblestone won't get blown up by gas if they shoot at me. So, another cobblestone. Pigman. Oh, almost dropped in that hole. Okay, I do not remember this. Probably have to go up here. I heard a weird noise. I don't know what that means but so yes, tomorrow uh Sunday, it'll be the day when you guys see this. I am actually picking up my son for three days. So I have to record all my video. Oh, that's not good. I have to record all my videos that I want for Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday on Saturday. So, I I have I did a lot of work today, but I'm fine with it. Okay, now I have no idea where I'm at. It's all right, though. We're just going to explore around. Hopefully, this gas doesn't do us in slow sand. tree houses for me. He's going to go open the trees so that skeletons can't shoot him. That's funny. Oh, world saved. Oh gosh. Yeah, we can make it. Oh my gosh, I'm almost out of food. I I had no idea. Eat, eat, eat. I might not have enough food to make it through this. Actually, I know I won't have enough food to make it through this. He's just experiencing all the features of this server. It's a nice server. Um the text coming up might get a little bit annoying here and there, but it's nice to know that everything's being saved. Uh it reduces lag by reducing entities, which is um things floating on the ground or mobs that are too far away that just get stuck or in loaded chunks somewhere. So, it's nice. See, also the bad thing about going around here in the Nether when everything is just loading, this lava could fall on you at any time. Like, I don't know. It's pretty scary, though. But we're all about that adventure. I'm most likely going to run out of food. I should stop running and stop jumping if I can. Where is a fortress, man? Sorry about my chair if you guys can hear that. It's a very old decrepit chair. I want to go through that way. Okay. Yeah, why not? What is that magma cube? No no no no no no no no. That makes magma cream. I need blaze powder. This gas, man. If I can get him with my sword, that'd be great. Oh, I got him, too. Did he drop? Yeah, he dropped the co gas tier. All right. That right there. Does that seem like dark to you? Again, my screen is very small. I I don't really know. Yes. Yes, we found one. All right, guys. We did what we came to do. Well, not yet. We found one. We have not killed the blaze yet. Okay. Okay. Oh, there we go. There we go. Got to run up here really quick. Screw the food. Make a hole right there so they can drop down. Everything else is blocked off. All right. Come over here, guy. I want your blaze rod. Come here. Are you over here? Where are you? I can't see him. This isn't good. Oh, no. No. No. No. No. No. Got to plug that hole back up. Come down here, would you? Okay, there's more. Okay, that's good. Actually, plug one of these holes up. Try to get one to come down inside this hole. Come on. You know you want to. I could be brave and do one right here. Yeah, let's do that. Come on. Okay, hit him. Hit him twice. Pigman behind me. Aren't you going to help? He's like, "Hell no, man. I'm not that brave." Okay, on fire again. I want to get at least two blaze rods so I can make a brewing stand and an eyeender. What else I need blaze powder for? Nope. On fire again. I'm actually not doing bad on food surprisingly. Can you please just come down here? Okay. Yeah. All right, that works. Call of Duty shot right there. You have no idea how it hits you. H. What am I going to do? What am I going to do? Mr. Pigman, you got to tell me. Oh, yes. Please. No. No, you don't. I'm dropping so many frames. I hope this isn't too laggy for you guys. Okay. Killed one. I'm about to just go up in there and do it. Umh yeah, I'm going to wait till my health regens. I'm just going to go up up in there, kill one, and run away like a little Get them all to spawn. Maybe we can start going like this. Okay, come here, guy. Come here. You're going to drop a blaze, aren't you? Come on. I'm waiting for you. Come on. You know you want to come down. Yeah, that's right. Yes. One blaze rod. One blaze rod. Achievement. Get into fire. Come on. I need one more. Don't do this to me. Come on. One more. Come on. Down here. I see you up there. There you go. Come on. You drop. No. Come on. Come on. One more. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. He's up on top of me. There he is. No, he's up on top of me. He's just glitching down. Yeah. Aha. You know what I should do actually? Okay, you're here. You're real. Come on. Give me your blaze rod. No. I'm going to die if I don't get back. Oh, one. Just one. I'm going to die right here, aren't I? Nope. You saved me, Mr. Pegman. Yeah. I just want I just kind of want to go for it. I mean, I know I'll probably die, but I don't like waiting like this. Even when I when I cut to break so I can re regain my health or Oh, god. Is he real? Yeah, he's definitely real. Drop one. No. Come on, Mr. Pikman. You got to save me. Thank you. We've killed a bunch of blaze. We went from like level eight. Is he real? You going to shoot me? From like level eight or nine to level 12 and we got one blaze rod. Oh, this takes forever. But anyway, back to what I was saying. I hate like cutting out just so I can regain my health. I just hate waiting. Like I do it for you guys so you guys don't have to watch cuz I know you guys probably hate it, too. But that's enough health. Come here. Come on. Oh, come on. Oh, I need to get rid of these. Okay, here they come. Here they come. They're coming now. They're coming. We messed up. I wonder if I can just do this. Don't you dare. I do not want to hit you. Yeah, this will work. That should be far enough, huh? Yep. I put a block there. Please just let me hit you. Did you drop one? I wish I could tell. Oh, there's another one. He got me. I'm almost full health though. Should be able to just run in there. Grab one really quick. Come back. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah, right. If I can get him to come out here. Okay, once I get full health, we're just going to rush it. We're just going to go. We're just going to rush it. All right, you're on fire. Come on, let's go. Okay, on fire. Not the best idea. Retreat. Retreat. Retreat. Oh god. Oh, this is harder than I thought. Got to go further down now. They retreated. They're scared of us. Oh, I like that's cool. Oh, that's not good, though. If I can just if I can go like this. Then put a block down there and there and there. Take that one away. Where are you? What? What? Oh, yeah. That hole on top. Okay. Well, now we have a blaze inside here, right? Is he still there? Yeah, he's still there. Okay, we're going to charge this guy. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come on. Come on. Back down. We're going to plug this whole I see a blaze rod in there. Can we get there? Can we get there in time? There's a fence there. Come on. Okay, we got one. We got one. We're going. We're going. We're going. Oh my god. Come on. Come on. Yes. Two blaze rods. Yes. Yes. Okay. Bye-bye. We're going to explore this just a little bit. Oh, maybe not. I shouldn't run though. gonna run out of food. But we did it though. That's a wither. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. That actually scared the crap out of me. Oh my god. Oh my god. Please heal up. Okay, that wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. The server's on normal, by the way, if anybody wondering. Okay, should we come back? I want to get the chest, though. I mean, I want to get like a saddle. I really want a saddle. I'm probably getting greedy though. Oh, I shouldn't be standing here either. Can I even walk here? What is this? Like the road right there just breaks. What about this one? Okay, come on. Okay, good. We're going. Run. Run. Try to get some nether wart, too, if we can find some. I'm just going to run out of food. I'm probably going to die here, but Oh, that's not good. And there's a blaze. Where are you? There's another freaking blaze spawner right there. Oh my god, we're trapped. We are trapped. Um, okay. I know this is dark. It's dark for me, too. I know. We're just going to go back. We're just gonna go back and maybe bridge over to here. God, that wither skeleton though. If he if one comes up behind me and kills me, I'm going to be so sad. Okay. Okay. Oh my gosh. I cannot believe we're doing this. I don't do this kind of stuff. I don't do this scary stuff. All right. Oh my god. We're actually going to do it. Oh my god. We actually did it. Oh, we have to go all the way over there now. Oh my god, I hear that gas, too. If I hear that ghast let out. Oh, no. No, no, don't lag now. But if I hear that gas let out a ball of fire, I'm going to sprint back. Okay, we're good. We're here. Play spawner up there. Don't want to mess with that. Oh my god, the lag. Oh, we got to get in there, though. We have to get inside of this place. Oh my gosh. Is that a skeleton up there? It's a freaking skeleton up there. Okay. Yep. If I hear that gas, I'm running forward. Oh, lag. Okay, let's take out the skeleton real quick. Come here, Come here. Go off the Go off the side. There we go. Go get it. Okay, Blaze.
