In the Wandering Mage's experience, it was just a bucket of water; even a thirsty villager would drink it all in under two minutes!
Even watering a field takes more than one bucket, yet he used it to subdue a dragon?
Before this, his thoughts were the same as the audience's.
He would have definitely thought the guy was full of it—that it was way too fake.
Until he saw it with his own eyes.
Even if the target was a special species like the Ender Dragon, it was still absolutely shocking!
"Wait, what's wrong with the Block World lately? Why does it keep lagging?"
Headmaster Quill and Fries both suspected something was wrong with their screens.
It wasn't until a few seconds later that it suddenly clicked.
"No, wait—he actually did it!"
A single bucket of water had trapped the Ender Dragon!
The two saw the same look of disbelief in each other's eyes.
Initially, they had assumed Galen Yu was going to find a way to one-shot the Ender Dragon; they hadn't even considered the possibility of bugging it out.
"There are still so many things in the Block World that we don't know about."
Headmaster Quill shook his head with a bitter smile, feeling both relieved and full of respect.
No one in the world could have thought of this trick—only Galen Yu!
He thought of it, and then he actually pulled it off!
"Now that the dragon is trapped, the rest will be easy!"
With the dragon unable to fly around, he could quickly kill it using the Tri-Bow.
Their worrying hearts finally settled.
In the Black House, the smile that had just begun to form on the Blonde Elder's face sank once again.
"It's never-ending... If you had this trick, why didn't you use it earlier?"
He felt like a monkey being toyed with by Galen Yu through the screen.
Just when he saw a glimmer of hope, it was replaced by even greater despair in the blink of an eye!
Clutching his chest, the Blonde Elder felt his old age catching up; he really couldn't take much more of this.
"Sir, I think you should keep watching."
The Secretary hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Based on Galen Yu's movements, I think... he has an even bigger surprise in store."
"An even bigger surprise?!"
It wasn't just the Blonde Elder's exclamation.
Some sharp-eyed viewers also noticed Galen Yu's strange behavior.
"The Ender Dragon is already trapped, so why isn't he attacking?"
"He turned around and left? What the hell?"
"Did he trap the dragon in the water for nothing?"
"Is it like the bullet chat said earlier? Has God Yu actually lost his mind?"
"Ptooey, ptooey! Watch your mouth, don't say such unlucky things!"
"But if he's fine, then what is he doing?"
"Minecarts? Rails? Is he building a transit system in the End?"
Under everyone's watchful gaze, Galen Yu did nothing else.
He simply pulled out a Crafting Table and made Minecarts and Rails!
Even the Wandering Mage below couldn't understand.
"What are you doing? The dragon is already trapped."
They didn't know how long the water flow would hold. Shouldn't he take advantage of the dragon's limited mobility and its inability to return to the Obsidian Towers to attack as fast as possible?
Laying rails—did he intend to occupy the End dimension and turn it into part of his own chunk?
It wasn't that he couldn't do that, but looking around...
To be honest, there was nothing here but Endermen and End Stone; it wasn't even as resource-rich as the Alliance chunks.
What was the point of occupying this place?
Surely he didn't take a fancy to the End Stone? It was yellow and dry, barely better than sand, and it didn't even look good.
Up on the small platform, Galen Yu heard the Wandering Mage's question.
But he didn't speak, choosing instead to answer with his actions.
"Using the Tri-Bow to kill the Ender Dragon... doesn't my bow have durability?"
What a waste!
Naturally, he chose a simpler and more effective method.
He had thought of this method long before coming to the End: Minecarts and Rails!
To explain why he was using this method, one must mention another mechanic.
The damage dealt by an arrow is determined by its velocity!
Normally, a fully charged arrow deals about 9 damage, with a small chance of dealing 10.
A half-charged arrow deals about 6 damage, while an uncharged arrow deals about 1.
Arrows fired from a Dispenser deal about 3 damage.
The principle of the Space-Based Dragon-Slaying Cannon was exactly that: using countless stacks of TNT to accelerate the arrow, thereby increasing its damage.
The Tri-Bow fired arrows, so it shared this exact trait.
As for why he was using Minecarts and Rails...
What Galen Yu built wasn't just a simple minecart and rail setup; it was a staggered height arrangement blocked by cubes, containing a total of five Minecarts!
With five Minecarts stacked together, even if the block above was broken, they didn't need a driver.
They would automatically propel themselves forward until they hit an obstacle.
This was a basic mechanic that any player would understand.
But if one sat in a Minecart at this moment, the compression of the five minecarts would generate a massive kinetic force—a sort of bootstrapping momentum that would send them flying.
He only needed to sit in it, aim at the Ender Dragon, and fire.
*Swoosh!*
The arrow's velocity was registered as extremely high, striking the Ender Dragon in the blink of an eye.
*Boom!*
[SYSTEM: FREE THE END]
The massive health bar was emptied instantly. The previously active Ender Dragon lost all momentum, its body freezing in place.
It returned to its perch—the bedrock structure—where its body began to tear apart, emitting beams of light.
Finally, with a loud bang, it exploded. It was dead.
The Ender Dragon had been slain!
Having clearly seen the entire process, the bullet chat fell silent once again.
"He's still got tricks?"
"Trapping it was one thing, but what's with the one-shot kill?"
"He's still cooking! God Yu is still cooking!"
"I should have known—God Yu is more powerful than the bosses!"
"Can someone explain the logic here? He was barely doing any damage a second ago, and then he just one-shots it?"
"I can't learn this. I really can't learn this!"
The Blonde Elder's features were all twisted together.
The Lich was strong, and when the Ender Crystals were blown up, he thought that was the peak.
He never expected the water bucket trick, or that a simple bucket could lock the Ender Dragon into such a small area!
He thought that was shocking enough and that killing the dragon would be straightforward, but there was more?
"What kind of magic do those Minecarts have that they can one-shot the Ender Dragon?"
If he had this move, why bother with the Lich!
Slumped in his chair, the Blonde Elder remained silent for a long time.
If he could one-shot even the Ender Dragon, what if that arrow was aimed at someone else—like Mark?
Facing a bringer of calamity like Galen Yu, a deep sense of fear actually rose in the Blonde Elder's heart!
Fries was also quite surprised.
"This kid... he was probably just worried about the Tri-Bow's durability, wasn't he?"
He clearly could have worn it down slowly with arrows, but he went out of his way to make minecarts just to boost his damage and show off.
He had to admit, he was impressed.
"Doesn't Kira Oakmoor love Bushido and samurai duels? When are we going to have one?"
If it was this effective against a boss, he couldn't imagine what it would do to a player.
Laughing out loud, Fries went straight to social media to post a challenge.
[SAMURAI DUEL. COME NOW.]
The comment section below was instantly filled with replies from netizens.
"It's been a long time since we've had such a satisfying declaration of war!"
"Only God Fries could be this blunt and straightforward!"
"Come and duel! Alliance, do you dare?"
"Dare? My foot! That so-called 'Oakmoor' ran away from the chunk without even daring to face God Yu!"
"Hahahahaha!"
