Early the next morning.
Xu Zhi got out of bed and looked out of the courtyard. In the sand table that covered a hundred acres, there were miniature mountains and rivers, and the land was green and lush.
Even if other people came to the courtyard as guests, they would not be able to see the magical miniature land in the orchard behind them. The hive was good at mental power control, so it could naturally interfere with people's minds. It would form a kind of " mental energy shield " that would interfere with other creatures, plants, and bacteria. It would prohibit them from entering the sandbox, creating an absolute isolation between the two sides of the land.
After a few days, Xu Zhi did not seem so dispirited anymore.
The hair that had fallen off during chemotherapy was gradually regrowing, and her deathly pale skin had become healthy.
In the mirror, the young man was handsome and tall. His facial features were three-dimensional, and his muscles were angular.
" After stopping chemotherapy for half a month, the side effects have finally recovered. My body has also returned to its original appearance. My body shape and face have even become more perfect. This is the feedback that the large number of dead Zergs gradually brought to my body.”
In front of the mirror, he silently sensed everything.
Grazing the insectoids in the sandbox, after they died, their life force and soul energy could be fed back to Xu Zhi. The higher the level of life, the stronger the soul, and the more effective the effect.
The current situation was because a few days ago, the first mass extinction of species in the Dark Valiant Era and the second mass extinction of species in the Guangwu Era had occurred.
Although the two mass extinction cases were the lowest level of primitive creatures, the number of deaths was too high, so they could still play a big role. It was not until last night that they were completely absorbed by him.
"The most important thing is that my hair has grown out!”
"Now that the side effects of chemotherapy have been resolved, and my terrible body has been improved, no matter how healthy my body is, I can't kill the cancer cells. In fact, the healthier my body is, the stronger the cancer cells are."
He was in a very good mood after all.
He left the sandbox in the yard and rode his bicycle to the town far away for breakfast.
It was rare for him to walk around the village. He planned to show off his newly grown thick black hair and see who would dare to look at his head with a sad expression.
There were fields on both sides of the dirt road. Occasionally, there would be some cow poop on the road, which was full of the nostalgic smell of the countryside.
Xu Zhi was suddenly stopped by a tanned, short and fat auntie who was carrying a basket." Yo, isn't this Xiaozhi? When Chen Xi said that you were back, I didn't believe it at first…Um, I heard that you're sick. Is it cancer?
"Yes." Xu Zhi nodded.
"Sigh, that won't do." "You're terminally ill, and our Xu family has no descendants. What should we do?" the auntie said excitedly. My daughter is actually quite good. Look at this…"
？？？？
After knowing that I had a terminal illness, he directly introduced his daughter to me as a partner.
Haha.
Did he know that he had earned some money in the city and that his parents had left a large orchard at home? Did he want to inherit his inheritance after he died?
My hair has grown out, but that doesn't mean I've become weaker.
Xu Zhi was just about to refuse.
"Hey, ignore her!"
The round-faced little girl, Chen Xi, rushed out with a few aunties. She was in a hurry.
"I heard from my mom that you've been pestering Xu Zhi, so I knew that you were going to marry a girl! Your girl is so ugly, has a bad temper, and hits her husband. She has already beaten him away, and you still want Brother Xu Zhi to take over?”
" It's you again, you stinky girl. I'll teach you a lesson." The short and fat auntie called Pig Granny was very angry, but when she saw the other aunties around her who were even more aggressive, she was shocked and turned around to leave.
Xu Zhi was stunned.
" Xu Zhi, let me tell you, the only person in our village who isn't a good person is the pig granny. Every village always has some unruly, shrew, and scoundrel…Wow!"
Chen Xi casually glanced at Xu Zhi and was stunned for a moment." How did you become like this?!"？You weren't like this two days ago. You were bald, especially bald…"
Aunt Li was Chen Xi's mother. She glared at Chen Xi and said with a smile," Girl! Didn't Xiaozhi always look like this? Now that he had returned all these years, he had changed a little. He was indeed much more handsome! Let's go! Let's go to your Aunt Li's house."
"Yes, come to your Aunt Li's house!"
Beside them, a few aunties carrying baskets were shouting enthusiastically.
"No, Mom! He wasn't like this two days ago. He was bald, bald, and had a crooked back!”Chen Xi was left behind by the crowd, her mouth agape.
"Daughter, how can you curse your Brother Xu Zhi like that! You even called him bald!" Aunt Li was very angry.
Xu Zhi raised his eyebrows, and his heart instantly felt at ease.
He felt that he had regained his dignity. Hair was a man's dignity, wasn't it?
He did not reject the hospitality of his neighbors and went to sit in the courtyard house next door. The friendly aunties were gossiping about their family matters. When they found out that Xu Zhi had a terminal illness, they were heartbroken and were very fussy.
Most of the neighbors in the countryside were simple.
He rarely came back after he came out to work. Now, he suddenly recalled many memories of his childhood here and felt a little warm. He felt at ease and comfortable accompanying these aunties who had watched him grow up and chatting with them.
Before he left, the aunties stuffed the vegetables and food they grew at home into his hands. They even said,"You should just recuperate here and work less. You might be fine!”
"Yes, I am." Xu Zhi replied with a warm smile.
"Definitely a substitute! She had secretly edited the picture and her hair had grown out, but her looks and aura had changed a lot…There must be a problem!" Chen Xi was lying on the wooden chair, still mumbling.
Xu Zhi pretended not to hear her, acting very calm and composed.
He was infected by the enthusiasm of these neighbors and felt warm inside. It was not bad.
He chatted with the neighbors for a while and got to know each other. He said that he would recuperate at the old house in the countryside and would meet often in the future. Then, he rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.
........
As soon as he entered the house, he rushed straight to the sandbox to observe the apes and how their civilization had evolved.
Now, the evolution speed was much slower. One time was one year, but if it was adjusted to 100 times, one day was still 100 years.
"More than half a day has passed. Now, it's equivalent to the sandbox world on their side. More than eighty years have passed.”
Xu Zhi thought for a moment, then picked up his binoculars. He stood on a chair at the door and observed the bugapes in the sandbox in the distance.
He didn't want to go in casually, because every time he entered, he would cause great damage to the ecological system.
After all, for animals the size of ants, a 100-acre sandbox was already the size of a small province on Earth.
" This is..." Xu Zhi realized that in just one night, these bugapes had already developed a simple tribal structure and lived in groups. They had even developed a simple language and culture, and they were wearing animal skins.
According to the theory of evolution, such species would be eliminated by nature if they resisted the reproduction of the population.
However, wisdom was impermanent. Wisdom would give birth to many views that did not conform to the theory of evolution, just like humans.
"Having shame means that they have intelligence. I succeeded.”
" That's not bad." He was very gratified and smiled." Back then, the bugapes who only knew how to call themselves 'balding' finally developed their own primitive civilization. They are no longer so annoying.”
However, it was on the verge of extinction.
They were too weak.
Even though Xu Zhi had already chosen the best primitive template for them, they were still used as experimental subjects. During the two days that they had spent raising the adult apes, the Sandbox Continent had still evolved at a speed of 10,000 times. Two days had already passed for 20,000 years. When they returned…It was already out of touch with the great era.
Their ancient genes from twenty thousand years ago were not enough to resist the attacks of the giant beasts and the Overlord Dragon from twenty thousand years later.
"If this continues, extinction will definitely not work.”
When Xu Zhi thought of this, his expression changed slightly. He returned to his room, logged on to his laptop, turned on the wireless network, and went to Taobao to customize some things." It looks like I have to think of a way to create a spark of civilization for them!”
After placing the order, he turned off his computer.
The next morning, Xu Zhi came back from his morning run, slightly sweating.
He looked at the table. The two packages that he bought online had arrived this morning. After all, it would only take a little more than a day for them to arrive by express air.
In one of the bags was a miniature potted plant. Greeting guests, pine trees.
The other package was a custom-made alloy sword that was only slightly thicker than a needle tip. It was exquisite and luxurious.
At this moment, the bugape tribe had endured for a day and a half, which was 150 years. Now, they were becoming increasingly rare. They were struggling to survive and were almost on the verge of extinction.
"After surviving for 150 years and not going extinct, it does have some potential. It's time to take a look.”
Xu Zhi stood up and walked towards the courtyard." Let's adjust their cell division rate to normal. One to one."”
.....
In the southern part of the country, there was a huge valley where humans lived. There were large forests with fruits and edible plants.
In front of them was the Tigris River. There were countless fish in the river, and the rich resources allowed the bugapes living here to struggle at death's door. However, it was also the last moment.
Broken walls and ruins, corpses littered the ground.
The thatched cottage had been destroyed, and the ground was covered with the corpses of the bugapes.
"Run! He couldn't hide here anymore. Ara was here!”
A few gorillas with thick black hair and armor on their joints seemed to be walking on their own. They growled in an immature tone and asked the women and children behind them to retreat while they waved the giant horns of unknown beasts and charged at the few dark, thin, and wretched beasts that looked like raptors.
"We must live!"
The women ran away with despair on their faces. They seemed to be used to running away. A few male bugapes rushed forward to resist, and soon, large amounts of blood flowed out and were chewed up and turned into food.
Fear was spreading.
When Xu Zhi saw this scene, he sighed. He could not bear to see this. The primitive tribe had suffered too many casualties.
" The Zergs are a species with extremely strong reproductive abilities," the Hive AI said." They are meaningless creatures that mass-produce spores. Their lives are as short as those of the Floater, unless they can transcend.”
"Transcend? How can I transcend?" Xu Zhi asked.
The hive AI explained," It means to break away from being cannon fodder and enter the realm of Zerg heroes. Awakening, breaking through the passive evolution, being able to control one's own genetic lock, adjusting one's own genetic evolution. Every planet releases spores and breeds billions of races. There will always be a few who can break through and become leaders, open the genetic lock, become Zerg heroes, and enter the upper echelons.”
Xu Zhi understood.
After all, it was impossible for a large race to be controlled by only the mother nest. There were all kinds of powerful higher-ups, such as the Zerg heroes.
On the other hand, the Zergs evolved passively. Survival of the fittest. For example, during the Dark Valiant Period, the Blue Moongrass, a plant that absorbed moonlight, had to die hundreds of millions of plants to evolve into a plant that could photosynthesize moonlight.
This was a passive evolution. The sacrifice was too great, and it was built on a huge number of deaths.
As for those Bug Tribe heroes, they were all powerful individual lifeforms. They could actually control their own genetic chains, achieve self-evolution, and adjust their own genetic sequences. It was simply a world of difference.
"Do you think the bugape I created will give birth to a hero who can break the genetic shackles?”Xu Zhi laughed." A racial hero?”
"If you have enough potential, it will work."
The hive thought for a moment and added," The genes of the species in this land are very unique. For example, after absorbing the gorilla genes, this bugape is a little strange. It has great potential. It's not impossible.”
"Bugapes are possible? Then I'm quite happy." Xu Zhi chatted as he strode forward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground was shaking.
In the ancient forest with a wild aura, countless beasts were frightened and flew away. A large number of species were fleeing.
Mountains were flattened, rivers stopped flowing, and some powerful species were trampled to death before they could even react.
"I accidentally trampled him to death. He was unlucky and was eliminated by the survival of the fittest.”
A kick.
A large area of the forest collapsed.
Hiss hiss hiss! In the forest, the few terrifying wild beasts called Alla, who were lying on the corpses of the bugapes, were also trampled to death. They didn't even have the chance to cry out.
Xu Zhi caught up with the bugape deserters in front of him.
"Heavens! What is that?"
"How can there be such a huge creature!”
He was ten thousand times larger than the largest hundred-meter-tall beast, Finba! He killed the terrifying Alla with a single step!”
"There's no way to see the top. It's a super beast that's at least a thousand meters long!”
The bugapes turned their heads to look. The vast creature that towered into the clouds was like an ancient giant that had pierced through the clouds in the sky. It screamed and instantly fell to the ground.
Through the hive, Xu Zhi understood what they meant in their simple language, so he did not mind.
Ants, how does it feel to look at people?
The ants couldn't even reach a centimeter of the shoes. When they looked up, they couldn't imagine the shock they felt when they saw the towering giant that towered into the clouds.
To them, he was a god.
