Chapter 11 - To the mines we go.

Feng Scratched the back of his head not knowing how to react in this situation, he didn't expect the anyone to actually enter his world when he opened the LAN.

He looked at the flash again and saw he was a but more blocky than him but he wasn't Minecraft blocky. "Soo...what brings you to my world?."

The flash who was speeding around the village and also Fengs house stopped by his side. "I should be asking how I came to your world, I was just minding my own business, getting back from defeating a villain when all of a sudden a portal appeared in front of me and one accidentally entered, the next moment I was here..."

Feng pondered for a moment and thought about how exactly he should resolve the problem though he could just turn off the LAN and them the flash would be automatically kicked out of he could go back to the material world and flash will be...kicked out but he didn't want to go through the easy path, he was bored anyways and having someone who 'willfully' entered his world to help him wasn't so bad.

"Well that's...sad, I can get you out of here but we would have to defeat a large dragon and to do that we have to go to hell and trade for the eyes of teleporting creatures who get mad when you look at their eyes and also take the rodes of floating fire elementals known as blades and to do that we would have to find a fortress."

The flashes lips twitched, he couldn't help but ask Feng a question. "Can't you just get me out of here the same way you do, i heard from superman that you can open portals."-

Feng shrugged. "I mean yeah...but do you really want to go out, I'm pretty sure you would enjoy fighting the Ender Dragon."

Flash was confused on what the ender Dragon was but he was tempted by Fengs words, it was not everyday that you would stumble upon the chance to explore a completely different world...well for a normal person that is.

As a member of the justice league and a user of the speed force, Flash has seen fair amounts dimensions and the dangerous individuals within them but he didn't really have any urgent matters so staying to explore this world doesn't sound all that bad.

"Well why not. By the way I feel like my speed is disappearing here, why is that?." The flash asked, unfamiliar with the fading connection of the speed force.

Feng scrathed his head and came up with a simply reasonable explanation. "This world is a survival world so to keep it fair, you lose your powers and just...well survive."

"Huh...so i am currently powerless until I go back to my world." The flash asked for confined.

Feng nodded and took out his diamond sword which was starting to lose its durability "Yep, in this world you mine, craft and survive or you could just build like i do." Feng gestured to his house and the large farm near it.

He stared at the house made from cobblestone and Sandstone, the roof decorated by beautiful oak planks and wood, it was a two story house that was relatively normal.

The farm though was something else, there were almost a large amount of different mobs, pigs, cows, chickens, horses and...squid?. Strangely there was a large body of water beside the farm filled with squids.

There was also a sugar cane farm near it and an actually farm on the surface of the water, the flash was confused as to how Feng could make all of this with his own arms, even for him who was the fastest man alive could not fathom how one could do this on their own.

But then again this was another world. "That's actually impressive."

Feng got off the ground and shrugged. "Eh not really, in have seen better and done better, sadly i don't have the drive to flatten a huge piece of land to make a large project, I initially wanted to build a castle but this place isn't suitable."

A castle? Yeah right, no one could build such a large building all by themselves though he wasn't really sure, this person certainly had strange abilities so maybe he could do it and holy shit?!! Was that a sword made from pure ....blue diamonds?.

The colour was strange from the normal transparent nature of a diamond but it was undoubtedly one. "Nice sword you got there, how much did it cost you to make it."

Feng looked to the useless diamond sword which was still unenchanted and sighed, if diamonds weren't strangely hard to find in this world, he would have already gotten a full set of diamond armour if he grinned for a day or two now he would have to spend twice the amount.

So his goal for entering the MC world now was to go diamond hunting. "It took a long time to find diamonds and I am going into the caves for a few days to mine some more, if you want you can come with me but i doubt you would spend four to six days in this world."

The flash shrugged. "Yeah that's right, I have a city to save you know but I can stay for a day."

Heating that Feng brought our an iron pickaxe and through it to the flash, the flash grabbed it, his eyebrows raised. "So...we're going to go mine?."

Feng smiled. "Well depends if you are born for the mines, I am sure that the flash isn't afraid of the warden or the countless annoying mobs of this world, especially creepers, always hate creepers, they can quietly sneak towards you and explode you without you even realising it. I have a mine inside my house so follow me."

Feng was glad someone actually entered his world or else he would have loaded the Tinkers Construct mod and grind for bleeding weapons...which he actually should, Tinkers construct was OP but he wouldn't do it when the flash was around.

Feng led the way into his house, the floorboards creaking with a realistic thud under their boots. Barry followed, still adjusting to his new center of gravity. Without the Speed Force humming in his ears, every movement felt heavy, deliberate—human.

​"Wait, back up," Barry said, hefting the iron pickaxe. It was surprisingly heavy. "The 'Warden'? You make it sound like there's something down there that can actually challenge a guy who usually outruns light."

​Feng paused at the trapdoor in the corner of his living room and looked back with a lopsided grin. "Barry, in this world, light doesn't matter. Sound does. The Warden can't see you, but it can hear your heartbeat. And since you're currently 'powerless,' one hit from that thing won't just hurt—it'll delete you. But don't worry, we're mostly looking for diamonds today. Just... watch where you step. Gravel is a silent killer."

​He flipped the trapdoor open, revealing a long, vertical shaft with a ladder disappearing into absolute blackness.

​As they climbed down, the atmosphere shifted. The cheerful, MIDI-style music of the surface faded, replaced by the low, echoing thrum of the deep earth.

​"So," Barry's voice echoed off the square stone walls. "Superman thinks you're a 'potential ally.' Batman thinks you're a 'statistical anomaly with a high probability of threat.' Where do you land?"

​Feng hopped off the ladder onto a stone ledge, lighting a torch. The flames licked the darkness, revealing a sprawling cavern system draped in glowing lichen. "I'm just a guy who wants to build a nice base and not get 'griefed' by Darkseid or the Joker. I'm a Neutral, Flash. I help when it benefits me, or when the 'mobs' get too annoying."

​He handed Barry a stack of torches. "Here. Place these on the right-hand wall. That way, we know the way back."

Barry grabbed them and placed them into one of the bars of his inventory he now noticed, it was literally floating on his palm.

He decided to ignore it and followed Fengs lead.

The cave was large and if one were to have night vision on them, they would witness the gave had a marvellous lighting.

To the flash the concept of mining was strangely fun, at first he didn't know how to use the pickaxe until fangs taught him, he posses his first iron ore but it didn't look like much.

So Feng thought him how to use a crafting table and make a furnace, the process was thrilling and he admitted that it was an interesting mechanic, almost like a game.

There was also the time when he posses a block above him and gravel fell on him and he almost suffocated which made Feng laugh and immediately got shot in the head by an arrow.

The skeleton who hit him sadly turned into bones and then got crafted into bone meal, though he would doubt no one would miss it.

But...that may not be true.

When Feng got the flash our of the Gravel, a pair of hollowed eye sockets watched them with interest.

It was a skeleton holding an iron sword and shield, there was intelligence so deep in his bones that even a human could not compare.
