Episode 16 of Minimalist sends Team B.S. into the Alchemist Lab on Kaladun's complete the monument map. It is a white laboratory full of magma cubes, blazes, skeletons and witches, and the witches throw poison and harming potions at anything that moves. Both players lose a life, and by the end the lab is far from finished and one of them has no bow left.
Into the lab
The lab opens on a long white corridor lit with redstone torches, glass cases on the walls and colored carpet on the floor. A sign reads "Laboratory Guide Key," with light green for slime storage and light blue for power generation. "This might be a place where you get potions." Magma cubes and blazes come at them straight away, and the torches go up to stop the spawning. Magma cubes keep coming anyway: "they're not affected by light."
It goes badly for Basket. At half a heart, the death screen reads "BasketMC was shot by Skeleton," and Basket respawns back near the start. The Deaths board moves to Scoti_Garbidis 13, BasketMC 11.
Potions and a charge
The second try is planned. A potion of regeneration comes out of a chest, and a brewing stand screen shows a golden apple ready in the inventory. On the recording: "eat the apple and then we'll do the potions." Then they run back in, splitting left and right, breaking spawners as they go.
Past the first halls is a library of bookshelves with caged spawners between them. One sign there reminds visitors that archive materials "require form 44C to check out," and another, read aloud, says archived items are hazardous. Witches spawn here, and the poison keeps both of them near half a heart. Water goes down to push the witches into a corner where they are easier to hit.
Netherrack and lava
Deeper in, the walls turn to netherrack and lava pours down beside the rooms. The Deaths board ticks Scoti_Garbidis up to 14, and gear ends up scattered on the floor. "I lost my pants." A moment later: "Oh there's my pants! And an extra helmet apparently." A large chest holds enchanted books, and "the important enchanting books" come out of it.
The witch room
The last stretch is a room of glass blocks packed with witches. On the recording, "the witches are definitely spawning out of the lava," and they throw harming potions "like crazy." Nobody is sure they may go through a wall instead of around: "I don't know what the rules are." "Me either." A corner turns out to hold "a lapis ore," and what might have been the wool is "not the wool, it's like a museum." Water goes down again, and lava gets tried too: "I try to put lava down on them and it landed on me."
Where it ends
One of them runs dry. "I'm out of bows. I have no bows." The plan is to go get another bow and come back next time. No wool comes out of the lab this episode, and the Deaths board ends at Scoti_Garbidis 14, BasketMC 11.
