A YouTuber attempts to recreate a Minecraft myth involving a "half-eaten sheep" by using a wolf and a sheep in a specific way. After several failed attempts, they finally succeed in creating a sheep with a strange, corrupted texture. However, this "virus" begins to spread to other mobs, causing them to behave erratically and drop unusual items. The YouTuber soon finds themselves being chased by these infected mobs, and must use their wits to survive and uncover the truth about the "half-eaten sheep."
