DISCOVERIES IN THE OVERWORLD
1 DISCOVERIES I think I see diamonds Harriet called out from where she was digging Where asked Jack pulling his pickaxe out of the block he’d been breaking Toby had been mining with an iron shovel nearby but he stopped and walked over to Harriet Where are the diamonds I don’t see any blue The group had just started their planned treasure hunting excursion through the Overworld when they had spotted an abandoned mineshaft and stopped to mine for diamonds Diamonds are extremely valuable trading resources in the Overworld and finding some would be a great start to their treasure hunting Look it’s blue Harriet pointed to a cluster of dia monds in the mine She picked up as many as she could and handed some to her friends We have to store these in our inventories 1
2 Discoveries in the Overworld I can’t believe we really found diamonds said Toby It was becoming increasingly difficult to find diamonds in the Overworld and this was a lucky find When they placed the last gemstone in their inven tories Harriet dug her pickaxe deep into another layer of the mineshaft But Toby just stood there I doubt we’ll find any more diamonds here We should just take what we have and move on Seriously Harriet kept digging deeper Yes insisted Toby We should stick to our plan We want to reach the jungle before nightfall Jack held a map in his hands It looks the jungle is still far away We should leave I hear there’s a lot of treasure there Harriet was annoyed We don’t even know if there’s a jungle temple with treasure But we do know that there are diamonds in this mineshaft I think we’ve already unearthed all the diamonds Toby looked over his inventory Harriet and Toby would have kept arguing if Jack hadn’t interrupted Watch out Silverfish crawled on the floor toward them They put their pickaxes away and grabbed their diamond swords to strike at the swarm There are so many of them Harriet called out as she swung her sword at the seemingly endless silverfish crawling at their feet Should we search for a spawner asked Jack I’m not sure Harriet replied breathlessly I think we need to destroy these first
Discoveries 3 The group used all of their strength to battle the sil verfish until the room went still I think I got the last of them said Jack Looking around for any last stragglers Toby spotted something in the corner of the mineshaft Hey what’s that The trio walked over to the corner and Harriet said It looks like an enchanted book That will come in very handy for our treasure hunting She leaned over to pick it up and leafed through the first few pages of the book This isn’t an enchanted book at all It looks like some body’s journal Do you think somebody is living in this mineshaft Jack looked around the dark and creepy mineshaft for a bed Harriet studied the book No I think this journal is old Who wrote it asked Toby as he stood behind Harriet trying to get a good look at it Harriet turned the book to look at the journal’s spine I don’t know But it has a warning on the cover It says Do not open this book Anyone who reads this will be cursed Really Let me see said Jack Toby laughed What a threat How would they know if we read it Jack didn’t see anything funny about it and didn’t understand why Toby was laughing I wouldn’t laugh curses should be taken seriously Reading this book could be really dangerous
