Invasion of the fortress

The reason why the Blazes are after the Ghast is because of a past grudge.

After the activation of the Reality Hurts function, the Blaze gave birth to a trace of consciousness, noticing that they were born from those cubes in the middle of the rooms, they thought of these as their father, their creator, the treasure of their race.

They subconsciously thought of this fortress as their home, killing the wither skeletons and any monsters inside.

Some Ghast got too close to the fortress, leading to an attack by the Blaze, the Ghast naturally counterattacked by destroying the place where the Blaze were, Spawn's room.

For the Blaze this was a great blow and they considered the Ghasts as enemies, to avoid new attacks they unconsciously created patrols to kill the Ghasts in the vicinity.

Now, Har and his group had surrounded the fortress and had reached one of its outer corridors, they had a plan to get hold of Blaze's wands, as for the underworld warts... they would make an effort to get them but they didn't have many hopes.

It might take a bit longer, but Har would be sending his clones for this mission, with the strength of 300 points, in addition to the sword and shield, it should be easy for them to take down the Blazes without being hit by their attacks. .

...

...

"Huhh"

At one end of an exterior corridor of the fortress, 4 Blazes noticed movement from the wall, being able to notice how a strange wall was moving towards them, this wall is actually the union of 4 clone shields and they move hidden behind it. they.

"Huuuhh!!"

With a heavy breath and a metallic sound, the Blaze fired at the wall ferociously, however, their attacks had no effect and left no apparent trace of damage on the wall that kept approaching.

"...?"

The Blaze with little intelligence were slow to react, it was the first time they saw such a strange situation, whenever their attacks reach a creature it will react by retreating or attacking them, they are never indifferent.

The clones with the shields advanced while one of them put out the fire on the ground with his sword, seeing the continuous advance of the strange wall the Blaze finally got angry and were ready to melee attack, but at that moment the wall split in four parts, revealing some strange creatures behind.

Without thinking too much, the clones drew their iron swords and struck at the Blaze without giving them time to react.

In a second, all 4 Blaze were dead with no chance to fight.

'Its in-game health is only 20 points, now it should be around 200 if my guesses are correct, it's still an instant kill when hit by a hit with more than 200 damage.'

Har watched all this from a hole in the wall that had been dug beforehand, he thought that if the attack strength of the weapons on the first floor increased, the lives of the monsters shouldn't be any different.

If that wasn't the case, he would have killed the Enderman he faced when he first entered with a single blow with the iron sword.

Just like how each attack point in the video game represents 10 attack points on the first floor, he thought the same boost to monster hit points should apply, it's just that this doesn't apply to Runners, if that were the case then his defense would be increased 10 times which would be insane.

"Is it okay for us to hang around doing nothing?"

"That's right, you're sending clones, but we're not helping."

Mike and Zac felt that they had become a liability and wanted to play a role in this plan.

"If the clones aren't enough, then you guys can go try."

...

The clones made their way through the hallway, they got about 6 Blaze rods and handed it to a clone to return to Har, after that he joined the clone team again and they prepared to continue the plan.

His goal is not to kill all the Blaze but to get the underworld warts, although he can make the potion of weakness without needing them, Har wants them to make the regeneration potion in addition to other potions.

Since they have Blaze's rods now the clones look for stairs, the underworld warts usually grow in the soul arena next to the stairs of the fortress.

Under the exhaustive surveillance of tens or hundreds of Blazes, the clones used the shield wall tactic, they entered the inner corridor of the fortress, confusing the Blazes.

The scene of the moving strange walls quickly drew attention before they went far into the fortress, a dozen Blazes came and fired without thinking.

The clones were forced to kill them early as the durability of the shields was about to reach 0, although carrying another shield in their inventory would not give them time to change them before being hit by the fiery charges and disappearing.

Dink* Dink* Dink*

With the sound of metal colliding, the clones' swords swept with their terrifying speed, before the Blazes reacted they only saw a silver glow flash past them and they burst into smoke dropping experience orbs and a Blaze staff.

Now that the corridor was empty, the clones took the opportunity to run at high speed in search of the stairs, when other Blazes arrived at the place, they only found fire in several areas of the floor.

The Blazes inside the fortress only saw figures flash past them, as the clones ran through the halls more and more Blazes began to chase their way.

In a moment the clones stopped their movements, they saw how they had a ladder in front and they were ready to risk their lives and take the sand of souls and the warts of the underworld, it's just that the ladder was guarded by Blazes and they formed a wall with their bodies.

"Whoo!"

With a heavy breath, the Blazes seemed to report this to the others and quickly the entire staircase was filled with them.

The clones took the shields and formed a wall in front of them, they were covering the fifth clone that was making some hand seals.

FuFuFuFuFu*

"Transformation Jutsu."

puff*

In an instant, the fifth clone completed the technique by bursting into white smoke and the next second it turned into a rock, one of the clones took this rock and threw it towards the stairwell.

The Blazes paid no attention to this and just fired at these creatures, little did they know that the stone burst into smoke behind them and a person appeared.

While the others distracted the Blazes, the fifth clone took out an iron shovel and quickly took all the soul sand to the left of the stairs.

Wasting no more time, the clone made a cobblestone path above the Blazes, chipped the wall, and climbed down after the other clones.

Swoosh*

Swoosh*

In an instant, all the strange walls moved at high speed and disappeared from the Blazes' sight.

All they had done was nothing more than avoiding being hit, if the clones didn't have that handicap they could beat all the Blazes in the fortress to death without a problem.

"Curse..."

When the clones tried to escape, a packed hallway was stopped by Blaze like a traffic cop.

"We must avoid fighting at all costs."

In less than a second the clones came to a tacit thought, they all have the same memory so they are very similar when it comes to making decisions, they immediately took cobblestones in their hands and began to build a wall.
