"I need to run this off," Steve wheezed, looking at the long expanse of the desert.
Suddenly, the world felt… heavy. When he tried to jump out of the mine, his knees buckled. He didn’t clear the one-block gap. He landed with a heavy thud , the sound of his boots hitting the stone echoing louder than usual. His movement speed dropped. He wasn't sprinting; he was waddling. "I need to run this off," Steve wheezed,
Steve had spent the morning mining obsidian. It was grueling work, and his "Calorie Burn" was high. He felt light, fast, and agile. He could leap over fences with ease. But then, he found his stash of Enchanted Golden Apples. "Just one for the haste effect," he muttered. He didn’t clear the one-block gap
He began a forced marathon across the sand. He spent three days and three nights doing nothing but jumping, sprinting, and digging holes just to fill them back in. Slowly, the number ticked down. 8,000… 5,000… 3,000. He wasn't sprinting; he was waddling
As he hit the 2,000 mark, his speed returned. He felt the wind in his hair again. He was lean, mean, and ready to fight the Ender Dragon. He opened his chest to grab a snack before the big trip, reaching for a cake.
