1
Singular golden pair.
2
This is me, out of mere four hearts and falling to my impending doom.
3
If you're wondering how we got here,
4
let's go a bit back,
5
when I got added to the Lifesteal SMP.
6
Now, this is known as one of the deadliest Minecraft servers.
7
However, when Season 3 was about to begin and everyone was gathered around the circle,
8
I was, uh, I was asleep.
9
Yeah, not my proudest moment.
10
Anyway, the main thing that sets this SMP apart is that every time you kill a player,
11
you gain a heart.
12
But every time you die, you lose a heart.
13
So, I went ahead and logged into this server for the first time.
14
Oh my god, I do not trust anyone.
15
I don't even know who to team with.
16
I don't know what to do.
17
This looks good.
18
No. No. No. Yeah.
19
After only a couple of minutes of joining the SMP,
20
I'd already died and lost my very first heart.
21
So I guess I'm on nine hearts now.
22
That's fun.
23
Let's just get some wood.
24
This has not been the greatest start for the season yet,
25
but we'll figure it out, I'm sure.
26
Push it down.
27
Oh.
28
Run!
29
Oh my god.
30
Oh no, no, no. Oh my god.
31
No way.
32
I died again.
33
However, not all hope was lost because another team actually decided to save me.
34
You seem to have died.
35
Do you need help?
36
I can make you armor.
37
I can make you armor.
38
Yeah, we can make you armor.
39
But after being given some starter gear,
40
I realized something far worse.
41
I suck at Minecraft.
42
And I was already down to 8 hearts.
43
Now, something I forgot to mention is that losing all your hearts gets you permanently banned from the server.
44
See you guys.
45
Thank you for the escort.
46
No problem.
47
See you dude.
48
But after getting geared back up,
49
I did one of the stupidest things I could possibly do.
50
Okay, I mean 7 hearts, that's not that bad.
51
Nope, it gets even worse.
52
30 seconds of poison?
53
Dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude.
54
I needed a plan, and fast,
55
because at this rate, I would literally be banned off the server.
56
Alright, to begin, something that most powerful players on the server have is a secret base
57
and if I want to make my own,
58
I would need a super advanced entrance system that would be incredibly hard to find.
59
A tree.
60
Hey, if it works, it works.
61
It is time to enchant.
62
We have our books, our leather, 12, 13, 14, 15.
63
Uh, how do you build it again?
64
Level 30.
65
After enchanting, the next addition to my bunker had to be villagers.
66
Now, I think I speak for everyone when I say villagers are the most annoying mobs in Minecraft.
67
But they're also useful, so...
68
Come on, villager.
69
Villager, slide.
70
Go down my slide.
71
Yes.
72
Wee.
73
Wasn't that so fun?
74
That was so fun, right?
75
Let's go!
76
Mending!
77
Oh my god.
78
After getting some villagers set up,
79
I had to go mine for a bit.
80
But luck wasn't on my side again.
81
I held my shield.
82
What's your cords, planet?
83
Do you need help?
84
I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.
85
No, I literally held my shield.
86
Oh, dude.
87
And while I was trying to get back into my base, this happened.
88
Yeah, waterfalls too.
89
Yes, dude.
90
Do you think people would- I just died two more times,
91
meaning I was now at four hearts.
92
I'm too shot by the way, discounting.
93
And after a bit of grinding,
94
I was back at full diamond.
95
But when I was peacefully running around the server,
96
I got a message from a player named Clutch saying he had a gift for me.
97
I don't know how to feel about that.
98
Bro, what is that?
99
I'm here.
100
It's for you.
101
It's like that thing from Fortnite.
102
There's a gift in there.
103
Yeah, break it.
104
I'm just like trying to assure you that you're not gonna die.
105
Okay.
106
It's just a little room.
107
Look, there's nothing here.
108
It's just this little room.
109
So you can have the gift as- Singular going there.
110
Oh my god, no, no. Oh,
111
I didn't even- No. Oh, oh!
112
Bro.
113
I honestly don't know how I fell for that,
114
but nonetheless, I was now on three hearts.
115
This is where it really got stressful because all it took was two axe crits and I would be dead.
116
So, from then on, I just never left my bunker because I did not want to be killed again.
117
But, everything changed when a player named Pear asked if anyone had mending books.
118
Now, I just happened to have a mending villager,
119
so we hopped in a call to make a deal.
120
So were you offering a heart or should I?
121
Yeah, I'm- I'm offering a heart.
122
Oh, you're offering a heart, okay.
123
How about 30 blocks of emeralds?
124
Oh.
125
Is the amount of emeralds not enough?
126
Because I can get way more.
127
Or you could just increase the amount of mending builds.
128
Oh yeah, yeah, no I can do that.
129
Yeah, because that would also be 10.
130
Okay.
131
10 mending builds.
132
10, oh!
133
For a heart.
134
Okay.
135
For a heart.
136
That's pretty- I think that's a pretty fair deal.
137
And a one-time alliance.
138
Like if we need- Yeah, one-time alliance.
139
Like if we need help or something.
140
Now this deal seemed great,
141
10 mending books for 1 heart,
142
but there's just one tiny problem.
143
One mending book cost around 20 emeralds,
144
which meant I needed around 3 stacks of emeralds,
145
and I had nowhere near that amount.
146
But I had a plan.
147
I knew a player named Red Wounds already had a huge emerald farm,
148
and with it, a huge stash of emeralds.
149
So I decided to head over quickly and borrow some emeralds,
150
so I could buy the mending and do the deal.
151
And everything was going well until...
152
Oh god.
153
Since he was on line now,
154
I had to be extra sneaky in case he was at the base.
155
Is that it?
156
Wait, I need to be, like, extremely careful.
157
If he sees me, oh god.
158
And with me only being on three hearts,
159
I would be an easy kill.
160
Alright, what's in here?
161
No. Oh my god, where's his emerald stash?
162
What's down here? Is there something here?
163
Hmm.
164
Oh.
165
My god.
166
What is this?
167
Oh!
168
Oh my god.
169
He's literally here right now.
170
If I can...
171
Go here...
172
Wait, is he still...
173
Is he still here?
174
Just one...
175
Oh my god!
176
Oh my god!
177
Oh my god!
178
Oh my god!
179
Wait...
180
This dude is rich!
181
I have no idea where this guy's thing is.
182
Oh!
183
I see his name over.
184
Dude.
185
Please, please, please, please.
186
Mending books?
187
Oh, there's not enough.
188
Let's take a couple of these.
189
How much is this?
190
More, more, more, more.
191
All right.
192
Oh!
193
Oh my god.
194
Oh my god.
195
Bro.
196
He saw me, he saw me,
197
he saw me, he saw me, he saw me!
198
Oh!
199
No, no, no!
200
Ow, ow, DC!
201
Hello?
202
Planet?
203
Oh, how did you get here?
204
I was joining the- Absolutely right behind you Okay, listen, I can explain.
205
I'm- okay, basically Alright, start talking Okay,
206
please don't kill me, okay Well,
207
you- you got- you- you just- you know,
208
you got a few seconds to start talking man You're not- you're not doing much right now I need emeralds, okay?
209
And you have a lot,
210
so I took some from you, okay?
211
Okay, they're not they're not yours.
212
Oh I'll pay you back eventually Okay,
213
those emeralds belong to me.
214
How many did you even take?
215
I took like two stacks But emeralds or emerald blocks Oh That's like dude that's working numbers.
216
Okay, you could you could have just said that you just needed a stack of emeralds That's it.
217
Yeah, so you're not really um Just one more blow for fun.
218
Oh my god.
219
Now get out of here before I change my mind.
220
Okay, okay, okay, okay Why did you not kill me?
221
Okay?
222
No, I don't know what the way out dude.
223
I don't know.
224
I'm out of here What the hell after that near-death encounter
225
that could have been easily avoided if I just asked I bought the many books
226
and went to go do the deal with parrots hen drawn three hearts
227
What Roddy you live where do we meet up and how do I know you're not just gonna kill me?
228
But you can't are you close to spawn?
229
Yeah pretty close.
230
I see wait wait.
231
I know where are you?
232
I'm right here.
233
I know I am I am so sorry.
234
I'm just kidding.
235
I'm just kidding.
236
Come over here.
237
Hey, bro.
238
Here is your heart Let's go I'm not at three hearts anymore.
239
Oh my goodness Thank you for the deal.
240
I'm now slightly less Then I had an idea
241
that changed everything See a lot of people on the server didn't actually have time to grind tools armor
242
and enchant books because they were too busy You know actually making content despite
243
that I could trade with villagers to buy gear
244
and trade it to other players in exchange for hearts
245
So I headed back and start to upgrade my base
246
and after a bit of time My new system was able
247
to produce about a stack of blocks of emeralds every hour
248
Which would be more than enough to supply any potential buyers
249
and finally I found a player named spectacle who had recently just died
250
and lost all His items and after a lot of negotiation We finally agreed
251
that he would give me one heart for some gear emeralds and enchant books.
252
I'm like nothing.
253
This is so sad Is this not tempting look get this Do you have iron?
254
Yeah, you'll never have to grind for diamond armor again.
255
Please.
256
Why is it desperate?
257
Well, I kind of have had a tough start.
258
Alright, planet.
259
Well, I'm starting to do this.
260
Well, you have started to help me to do something.
261
Yes, yes.
262
Five hearts.
263
Oh my god.
264
Let's go.
265
But only 24 hours later,
266
I found another player named Yajirn who also needed some gear.
267
So we agreed on one heart for a double chest full of diamond armor and some gear
268
Are you ready to okay um And there you go You want to check out the box first?
269
It's gonna like kill me or something Okay, that's all looking for.
270
Well.
271
I just need I need armor for a video
272
and I really just don't want to bother So you are a real lifesaver.
273
Oh, thank you.
274
Oh Oh!
275
Let's go!
276
Dude, six hearts.
277
But then, I got approached by so-called heart bank,
278
saying they had a special deal for me.
279
But then I realized that one of the owners was Redoons,
280
the guy I literally stole from a couple days ago.
281
So either I'm about to get scammed or I'm gonna die.
282
Oh, God.
283
Okay, Planet, we know that you've been kind of,
284
you know, dying in very weird ways.
285
You've given me a run from my money with dying in Minecraft.
286
Okay.
287
Yeah, I got the two totems as agreed, so.
288
Let me see the colors.
289
I trust you.
290
This is an incredible, an incredible product of legitimate value and it's very much authentic.
291
Unlike these hearts.
292
What?
293
Don't worry about it.
294
Alright, so here you go.
295
What?
296
These are very much qualifiable hearts.
297
Why is it a fireworks star instead of a nether star?
298
That's because you're old school.
299
Don't worry about it.
300
Oh.
301
I can't.
302
I can't click on the button.
303
What do you mean?
304
You may not be able to apply it, but it's yours now.
305
Yeah.
306
Okay.
307
Alright, get out of here.
308
Get out of here, scamp.
309
Pleasure doing business.
310
Listen.
311
Listen.
312
I feel a bit bad for the sake of keeping proper relations.
313
Yeah.
314
Oh!
315
Okay, now that's a real one.
316
This is a legitimate hard...
317
I think so.
318
Did it work?
319
Yeah, yeah.
320
Oh, thank you guys.
321
Also, because you're now a first-time Heart Bank customer,
322
would you be interested in purchasing a based ape NFT?
323
No. Oh my god.
324
Okay, I don't know what was going on.
325
Seven hearts.
326
Okay, I'll take it.
327
Now, you might be a bit confused as to why I'm trying so hard to get all these hearts,
328
because seven is already a decent amount not to get banned off the server.
329
Well, ever since Clutch killed me with his trap and made me almost get banned,
330
I wanted revenge.
331
And I had the perfect plan,
332
but I needed as many hearts as possible if I wanted it to work So for the remaining three hearts,
333
I decided to use a different method You see,
334
there's actually a crafting recipe that you can use to make hearts
335
Which consists of a bunch of expensive materials So I got straight to grinding Alright,
336
we got our three hearts Okay,
337
and boom, boom, boom Oh my god, we did it.
338
I'm finally back at 10 hearts.
339
Oh my god And now
340
that I can actually fight I had some unfinished business to take care of
341
so I told clutch to get on for a cool surprise
342
I'm at the door are you ready to see my epic surprise?
343
What is it?
344
Well, you'll have to you'll have to wait and see.
345
Oh, hi.
346
Okay, um, so at this point clutch thinks I have three
347
or four hearts So he obviously wouldn't think that I would fight him if you wanna follow me.
348
I can't tell you, that was fully the surprise.
349
Alright, wait one sec.
350
Okay.
351
Huh?
352
Why?
353
Ah!
354
You can't trap me when I'm at three hearts!
355
Oh, he actually somewhat came prepared.
356
Oh god.
357
Die!
358
Ow.
359
Oh god.
360
Oh my god.
361
Come on, I know you're low!
362
I know you're low!
363
YES!
364
YES!
365
YES!
366
11 hearts!
367
Let's go!
368
GG!

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
