Eleven of twelve

The emerald block goes into its slot under the chests. "There's just the one that you screwed up, and then otherwise we have them all." Placing it does more than fill a gap. "Not only do we get the buff, right, I forgot we get the cool thing."

A row of emerald blocks under chests at the monument, with signs reading "Emerald Block 12," "Emerald Block 11" and "Emerald Block 10," and the death counter at Scoti_Garbidis 138, BasketMC 117

The chest above it holds a bow called Trinity's Justice, and chat says "The ancient gods have sent you a present." The tooltip lists Power VIII, Flame II, Punch IV and Unbreaking IV, plus Ice Arrows, "slowing all enemies around them," and +20% Speed. The same chest has a Bedrock item marked "[11/12]" that "can be used to unlock upgrades."

One of them wants it right away. "I'm taking a mega bow, dude." They use the Bedrock at an upgrade station, and chat reads "Advanced LIFE DRAIN upgrade has been unlocked." The idea is that killing things should keep them fed and help them heal.

Another shrine

Back inside, they head straight in past creeper spawners and holes full of lava. The plan for the next shrine is to go in light. "Take nothing except for an ender pearl and a good pick," break the glass, and shoot from far away. The runner takes two ender pearls to get back out, and wears "the backup armor."

It works. One of them goes to "thread the needle and shoot those floating orbs," and a moment later chat reads "You have destroyed a shrine." That's the only shrine message this episode.

No message says it was the last one, so they read the objective book again. The box holding the black crystal is cursed, and all seven black shrines have to go. They start counting the ones they've destroyed and aren't sure.

Ladders and ender pearls

The box sits high up in the middle of the hall, so they build toward it: a pillar of blocks, ladders on the side, and water at the bottom to land in. The white smoke and the fire keep coming for whoever is building. Chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was killed by magic," and the counter goes to 139. The gear ends up at the bottom of the stairs, and one of them runs back for it.

Throwing ender pearls up to the ladder doesn't go well either. "I'm terrible at throwing these things." So they make more ladders and keep stacking. Then chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was killed by magic" again, and the counter hits 140. "I just kept putting ladders down till it killed me."

Not cleared yet

With one of them keeping the smoke busy, Basket climbs to the top of the ladder tower. Chat answers in red: "CAUTION! You will die if you get any closer to the black crystal!"

"Yeah, we obviously screwed up somewhere." They go back over the shrines they remember, including the one in the poison spider fire room, and get to seven. The curse doesn't agree. "So we need to explore the rest of the middle and see if we missed something."

Two deaths this episode, both Scoti's. The counter ends at Scoti 140, Basket 117. The Bedrock tag reads 11 of 12, so the monument now has 11 of 12 emerald blocks, and the crystals stay at 15 of 16.
