fWhip – Empires 2 : I Built a CAVE STARTER BASE in Minecraft 1.19 Survival Let’s Play (#1)

Hey folks whip here and welcome to empire’s smp season two today starts a brand new journey with a bunch of familiar faces in a brand new minecraft 1.19 survival world where i will be creating a massive cave empire to sprawl across the underground but first we start from humble beginnings as with

Every minecraft series chopping the first tree down and we’re off on an adventure crafting up the first of many essential pickaxes the wooden pickaxe there was a sheep over here though so maybe we can get some wool and get a bed that would be very nice i heard another

One where was it where’s the sheep one more to go this just feels right being underground but it’s time to grab a little bit of cobblestone cobblestone pickaxe acquired and we’ll get a full set of cobble tools just get ourselves started and of course the furnace with that i ran off to explore

This brand new world in search of villages to gather as much food as possible before diving underground oh wait check that out there’s some coal over here that’s gonna be very important because i’m starting to iron the village can wait get some food started and i’ll gather up the rest of this

Maybe a second furnace to start getting the iron going too but at least i can eat now for the most important piece of equipment our shield we can never die we’re totally safe from everything i almost got sworn by some zombies so i grabbed everything and ran out of there

But check this out we’ve got a ton of iron i guess we need more sticks first for the iron pickaxe as well as an axe in the final sheep we must sacrifice to forever skip nighttime thank you good sir hello cow yes the best source of leather in the game so it begins

Look what we found oh my gosh there’s a village okay we need to steal all of the hay bales we can find and hopefully nobody has raided this one yet the bells are still here that’s a good sign i’m not seeing any hay bales nope somebody’s

Been here we must go on until we can find the hay bales they’re gonna be worth more than gold and diamonds which is worth a lot more than gold running up to the top of the mountain we can get the next most important resource for rose logs and definitely spruce saplings

Just four all i ask for is four can we get one three two one one spruce sapling that’s all i ask oh one yay most important item after we’ve got our four spruce saplings is a bucket of powdered snow i don’t know why but i need it many

Saplings have been acquired and look what we got over there a rune portal with gold and a village and pumpkins wait that’s huge but first the gold and nothing in here that we want one iron though that’s we want that free iron ingot and free gold oh wow that’s a big

Cave don’t fall in there hey bails hey bails oh my god hey bills i think it’s only two but i’ll take it yes yep yep so good so good we can build with mud today it’s not even that i’m concerned about trying to eat it’s literally just that i

Want the blocks to build with and i will definitely take a blast furnace all right there we go time to move around a little bit and see what else i can find because i would love to get all of the saplings if i can but i don’t i

Don’t know where the other biomes are there’s a savannah becca oh i don’t know who died there but i’m sorry whoever you are continuing the adventure around this world i found another village which i ran into and grabbed up as many goodies as i could find right next to that i did

Find a pillager outpost wait those are allays oh my gosh oh run run run get inside consort hey bails too oh i love this place and we are safe inside a bit of a problem i’m starting to run out of food there’s an iron golem in there there’s more lays

In there if i give them dirt i believe they’ll follow me right dirt dirt yes come with me boys or you’re just gonna be looking for it okay well run i don’t like this ladies you’re supposed to follow me okay there’s more we’re going to try we’re just going to let him

Out we’ll come back for him later gather the dirt my friends and come with me please they are following me yes get all the villagers are two oh god now right away allah’s with me come my children come we lost one nope we got all four yes

Oh i love them don’t love you oh they’re following me we’re running my children we must find a safe cave to hide in to begin the empire oh thanks guys i’ve got a little friends oh they’re bringing me dirt carry that to me right now bring that to me oh i love this

Minions pick it all up yep and bring it right over here oh this is gonna be fun oh this is so good right i’ve made it back to spawn and i’d like to create a sophisticated starter mini cave home for now so the ladies can have somewhere to

Hang out something right here next to the birch forest should work great maybe this home this could be our home yeah oh this is a cave base come on in everybody you guys all just run there and pick up the dirt and block you guys

In there for now for their own safety i put all the la’s in the very back i’ve got a little bit of a cave in here too we’ve all got some lights next up we’re grabbing all of the food maybe we actually use the iron this time in time

To adventure and see what else we can find using a data pack we did get access to the bundle through a new crafting recipe we made meaning we can store a load of items inside of it until we hit the 64. so at least we can carry a bunch

Of random stuff exploring a bit more around the world i found some dark oak trees to chop down as well as some jungle logs to gather up to the only item remaining for me to find right now before i can get started is mangrove logs and a bunch of mud two things that

I know where neither of them are oh wait who’s that at the campfire oh it’s sausage maybe he knows where a swamp is oh hey hey hey hey hey do you know where i can find some of this meat in tree form oh yeah i love that

Mini tree fort come with me i know exactly where to go oh yeah awesome oh perfect thank you thank you thank you i believe there’s another empire that uh owns it okay so we’re sneaking from the side yeah we got the mud we got the mangroves and we out wait sausage look

Look look look look what’s over there we made it oh i’m fine you’re fine what i’m fine with it mangrove forest oh i can’t believe this we were distracted with this village in this right the village and oh my god look at all these pigs wow so much food

On your head that’s messed up they think i know i know they love me i’m one of them i would die for him oh he jumped oh this sounds disgusting i love it i just need to gather up a bunch of the stuff in here enjoy i’m gonna head home before it

Gets dark and i die thank you for guiding me here good sir always fun to hang with sausage but i got to work gathering up all of the mud and mangrove i could fit into my inventory i also found my way down to a desert after a

Quick stop back at home and loaded up also on as much sand as i could carry to get the starter base going and on my way home i came across my new neighbor all right joel you ready to see my secret cave shopping flip where is your secret

Cave i’ve got a secret cave the cave empire has already begun welcome to my humble abode do not break alleys inside don’t break there’s there’s four lays in there look at them they’re my best friends oh look at how cute they are they are cute they are very cute kind of

Regret voting for them too honest copper golem yeah they get a little regret but they are pretty cool you enjoy your cave i’ll see you around maybe a bit too close around i’m going up here i’m going to find stuff above the mountain above the base yeah the caves are mine you do

That i will flip goodbye goodbye mod is quite far away isn’t it oh yeah you’re getting really high up there now oh wow yeah that’s still here oh yeah you’re really fading out there you have a great time up the mountain all right ah neighbors

No stanza uh no no no no no no he’s gone nope get the dirt get the dirt come no everybody inside don’t leave please now my lace look at all these new goodies i got we got a goat horn we’ve got an enchanted golden apple and my first

Diamonds will scavenging around to find the dark oak forest i saw something up here this mouth of a cave look at this thing but wait there’s more just trying to avoid all of the powdered snow but this my friends right here is the start oh that’s deep dark oh that’s

Terrifying this is gonna be the start of the cave empire i just gotta live in the deep dark inching our way down into the cave and things are getting quite spooky but check out the size the absolute insanity that is this cavern my brand new empire base location

I needed inventory space and it’s just been kind of on my head the whole time but there’s deep dark down here and i’m scared i’m scared of the warden i want to go get geared up first i’ve got a little bit of food here ready to go and

We’ve got a little bit more iron cooking away so i’m thinking we get a few more iron pickaxes and it’s off to see what we can gather and maybe maybe i don’t need that a ton more torches and that should keep us at least to find some

Stuff out here wait who lives here there he is after the villager horn we could scare him oh hello oh my god i was spoiled i was trying to get you so close are you here to raid my wheat fields my poor i mean i could you should

Feel actually i mean i could make some mud bricks out of that yeah that would definitely be great i’m on a quest to get geared up have you found any good caves there’s one kind of over there you see where the nether portal is on the ridge there

Yes yes yes yes yeah um basically right underneath that there is a doozy of a cave that i think we should check out so okay if you’re on board let’s do it i got food i got pickaxes i’m ready and this goes down to a mine shelf oh oh

Very nice okay i’m gonna do like a little triple torchy thing here so we can know how to get back up ooh gold nice oh whoa okay yeah the iron was a trap the iron was a trap i wonder like you said you found something a little bit warden-y looking

Down your neck of the woods oh but i have no diamonds got a pickaxe oh and this opens out this really opens out yeah i think we uh we head up this waterfall and we explore what’s on these burning platforms yeah that seems like a really safe bet why do

I just want to sit here and gather up all of these chains i’m doing it nothing can stop me except the fact that the chain fell down the pit yeah and the creeper behind you no i’ll go visit those guys again that sounds like a smart call oh jeez speaking of smart calls

Things are not going well diamonds use only two oh what there’s a slime i definitely want slime balls if we can get some if you’re done finding places you don’t want to go down i’m basically done here if i have this many diamonds yeah i got seven diamonds i think i’m pretty set

For now too i think we probably need to call it before one of us gets killed again i’m a little scared of tackling the cave right now so i ran over to the mangrove forest got a bunch more roots to build a wall there’s somebody right over there we’ve

Just got to see if we can get as close as possible for a little spook oh i see your name tag we must be getting close okay okay sneaky time so close oh hi oh my god oh my god one of those two oh my god yay

Oh that’s so good if i do the hard and you can hear it from yours and then you do it and then we send a chain round it’s like you know the beacons of gondor yes yeah i think yep we have to try this i’m gonna go to the I love these oh this is gonna be good she’s all the way over there oh i love this if you ever need assistance just blow the horn and i will be here what are you gonna do i don’t know what’s this i haven’t gotten that right spend ten minutes running over yeah

Exactly exactly if you hear the horn i need a lot of help you hear the horn i need a lot of help in the case okay it’s an emergency okay the goals for this mission one don’t die two set up a perimeter with mangrove roots three

Light up the inside of the perimeter to keep ourselves safe we just have to get down into the cave once more we’ll use the waterfall and there’s already creepers i really should have gotten above oh and there’s lava oh we don’t want to go all the way down how can we

Get around the lava all right this is a big cave we’re in securing it for the cave empire here it is the entire section we’re just going to keep making our way in okay still good creepers that’s a ward and spawner we don’t want to go over there at all okay

Why am i creating the cave empire in the deep dark just got the torches down next up is the wall which i really hope i have enough mangrove roots to do this here we have it our first containment zone of the cave empire next up is time

For the very painful trips of bringing all of the resources over so let me get that done real quick you all just stay over there please nope nope don’t come inside impenetrable wall you cannot make it in but i’ve now moved all of my stuff over from the starter cave the laser

Still in there we’ll grab them later when we have a use for them but i’ve been putting this off for way too long it’s time to put a roof over my head inside of the cave i’ve designed an entire brand new build style for the cave empire so this is a little anxiety

Inducing to actually put it into a survival world i want to add a sufficient amount of wonkiness to this style because i think it could be really entertaining so we start with a bit of a tower right back in here but i don’t want to live in just a tower so we’ve

Got a whole building that’s going to come out this way for now we’re just using some temporary blocks to plot it out where we can add a front door in right over here sure yep it’s a great house can’t you tell before throwing in any walls i do want to get the front

Entrance sorted so we need a staircase coming all the way down we build a boardwalk of sorts so we’re not actually touching the ground and then we stay safe from the wardens and occasionally we have little points to get down that’ll work great now for the front

Door and then the rest of the walls This is looking really good so far but the mangrove is a touch dark so i’m thinking here at the front we can bring in a pop of acacia wood and use that throughout the build too so we just send up the entire front section making it

Again a little bit more on the wonky side and get a really organic shape and put the first light to keep us safe that’s looking really good now the glow berries i found are also going to be super important over here because otherwise this build is not going to

Feel organic at all next i need to find a little bit of andesite somewhere in the cave oh nice it’s right below us yay oh look at where creepers are oh don’t go that way don’t go that way okay oh i really want to keep you alive oh there’s

Two of them two zombie villagers we have to get them got my boats can we take out the creepers oh you want to come over here right there for you buddy yes okay smith yes yes yes yes yes oh they’re both in the same boat yay

I don’t like the cave i don’t like the cave yet okay we’re safe now we have two villagers use i’ll be back for you boys later but for now i’ve run out of oakwood so i gotta go back to the surface and get a bunch more materials

Have been acquired and i’ve patched up all of the holes in the main house and finished off the walls but next up i want to try out some of the packed mud and some of the mud bricks where i can start a 3×3 base and solidify it with

Some of the drip stone from here we just go straight up into the sky and build the rest of a tower I’m almost done with the starter base but i had to make a small excursion to the jungle to find some bamboo and look at these two guys i found two pandas come on let’s go you can have a bamboo and you can have a bamboo they’re beautiful

Oh i love him oh he’s a sneezy panda wait we might be able to get some slime balls i don’t think i’m bringing them home with me because i have a chest boat and not a regular boat but maybe one day we’ll come back for you there we have it

My starter base is now completed and now i’m thinking it’s time to get dressed for the occasion let me just walk inside real quick ah there we go much much better for a cave empire welcome to the goblin empire soon we will rule the entire underground but before that i’ve

Got to start mining for a load more diamonds so we can get geared up after we do a little bit of decoration because we don’t want to rule an ugly area no no no no no there we go much better probably going to be gone for a good

Amount of time so i might as well take the advantage well i can of getting some of this copper smelting down and give ourselves a little bit more experience i’ve got some coal i’ve got logs and i’ve got a ton of torches it’s time for a very very very important step inside

Of this brand new season crafting our first diamond pickaxe we’ll break through the iron one and see if we can hopefully at least get three more diamonds along the way let’s get to work we’ve got our first diamonds let’s go we’ve got five diamonds yes more diamonds let’s see we got one two

Just two another diamond here we go oh look at that oh oh don’t look at that no whoa check that out we found some diamonds down here oh this is amazing what um did i find a stronghold i didn’t know they could generate this far down you’ve

Got to be kidding me there’s so many torches in here oh we found some bookshelves check this out we’ve got ourselves a library oh and there’s a chest right here any goodies smite three it’s okay that was it though there’s only one level of bookshelves there’s a giant lush cave intercepting the

Stronghold hopefully there is a portal speaking of which there it is wait why are there torches wait it’s lit up in here there’s torches why are there why is the portal activated we were saving the dragon fight for something i’m a little scared i’m gonna fill this in let’s go figure

Out who’s already went in here because i don’t know what’s on the other side i made it back home and i think we can just start throwing some spore blossoms around because the particles are really gonna add to our cave environment i don’t want to be too overgrown down here

But i like a little bit of it i think i’m just gonna toss all the stuff in here and i’m gonna go see who i can run into on the server and figure out what the heck’s going on but we are up to 19 diamonds and a pretty broken diamond

Pick look at him there he is hey joel hello hi quit hi i have a question for you have you been in the end no i’ve barely been in the nether of course i’m not at the end hello hello hello hello hi hi catherine have you

Been in the end portal no why have you been to the end yet no have you been in the end yet no i’ve not i’ve not been to the end um no what oh the end no no no no no it doesn’t sound like something that i’ve been doing no

It’s not me it is okay wait but i want that i want that type of stuff i’m gonna get everybody together here soon to investigate the end but in the meantime i’ve been busy decorating my starter house the interior is coming along but for now it’s mostly just a barrel room

But i do want to get geared up so i have dug a small cave here in the back for a spot to put the enchanting table and i use all of the books i got on the stronghold for the bookshelves i just need some obsidian which is where all

These fancy diamond tools come into action i also want to grab a few buckets of lava so we can start a mini lava farm with some drip stone i’ve just got to remember where i ran into some of the lava down here oh perfect there we go we

Got plenty of lava in here next we get on top there’s already obsidian there oh i don’t like this this is probably one of the worst possessions i’ve been in in a very very long time well at least i’m on top now and i can pick up some of the

Obsidian i’m gonna get some extra for another world too we’ve got our obsidian we got some new diamonds and over here we’ve got ourselves some books meaning enchanting table we’re trying to go big here so i’m not even gonna waste on efficiency three no thank you we’re gonna do this and breaking one

A quick reset an efficiency four that’s at least a good start shouldn’t have done that okay we gotta get back to 30 to keep going but in the meantime we got lava in proper goblin fashion we just need something that’s highly functional nope spiders stay outside the wall

This will definitely contain the lava we have nothing to worry about looks good to me we’re dripping lava the next enchantment gave me unbreaking three and fortune two so i added them together and we have this guy now now for one more round of mining diamonds to

Try and get enough for full diamond armor Or or not or i won’t get any diamonds really at all i went this far strip mining you can barely see the end down there i got one i thought goblins were supposed to be really good at mining and the diamonds would just be fallen from the skies all is not lost as

I do have 20 diamonds for myself which is pretty good so i think we get some boots so we could try for feather falling and then we get some pants and i think wait i can also get a chest piece amazing take this iron off and throw the

Diamonds on okay still a success also yes so we can show our pretty skins we’ve made it so that you can actually hide your armor and make it invisible because now i can be wearing diamond armor they still look like this and do not worry the custom armor from season

One it’s coming back eventually but for now this iron armor it’s just gonna go in here my storage room is growing taller and taller as we go and i kind of like it i’ve sent out the messenger goblins to gather some forces to dive into the end and see what’s going on in

There but first we need to finish making this area presentable we need a cave tree and to make this well i’ve got to go to the nether like this please be safe nope not safe at all this is the exact opposite of a safe biome i’ve got the gold earrings on

And the helmet so uh we’re good the piggies are at least gonna be friendly with us do we have a warped forest anywhere no not that i can see so i guess we’re going hunting no Oh thank god oh that would have been a really bad fall i guess the bonus on here is we do get to get up to all the way to level 30 again mining all the courts and of course there’s another fortress this is not what i want oh

That’s not what i wanted that’s i mean i’ll take it i will take it oh i don’t like this i think i tried finding that with my shovel out of being scared we’re finally here this is what i needed all along but now we can build cave tree

I just need a ton of these and i’m realizing now i did not bring a hoe this might be a little painful another world finally and more importantly the soul sand i got to work building up the cave tree and some people started to show up at my doorstep

To go check out the stronghold yeah really good welcome to the goblin cave empire i went out around a few of you and uh i found the end stronghold um it’s open the portal’s been opened and i went to a bunch of you and y’all said you didn’t

Go does anybody know what happened there i didn’t know what no no no no okay well um do you want to go investigate with me see what the heck’s going on in there figure this out i think we better had yeah yeah wait we’ve just started no

Should we go is this safe it could be dangerous if it’s a trap we all go together he likes to eat witches this could be a trap yeah if it’s a trap we’re all in there together and we’ll sort it out it’ll be fine if it’s a trap somebody’s nothing there’s absolutely nothing

Secretive about me whatsoever okay well uh it’s in the mines this way let’s go look the portal’s open no way i didn’t do it tell us you did it weird so do we go in we figure this out what there’s another channel why is that confusing to you oh yeah i guess jerry

Is there let’s go joseph oh my god oh yeah where’s the dragon isn’t there supposed to be a dragon here is the portal out this engine is the bottle’s open there’s somebody here the egg’s gone already is there someone we don’t know about that’s on this world i mean

Scott’s not here is it him somebody seemed like scott no yeah true it’s got the kind of person who solo’s the dragon fight yeah i guess we can just go to the end cities now yeah there’s a gateway right over there okay well uh sorry for dragging you all

In here to find out there’s nothing going on but thanks oh i’m so glad what did we get for this meeting yeah what do we got just come over here jimmy i’ll show you there’s a prize right here yeah show jimmy what is that yeah it’s right here [Laughter]

Well that was a little weird but i do have endstone now and i did really want to use this in my build so uh let’s give it a shot we’re making ends don’t happen we also now have a house chicken but there we go the starter base is complete
