Create a sandbox world

In this extraordinary afternoon, under the influence of the evolving sand table, the buildings selected by Lin Tuo shifted silently on this vast and barren land.

Even the people in it didn't notice any abnormality.

Until the satellite positioning deviated, a familiar city appeared at the end of the road.

"Ah this..."

"Damn it... how come we came here? This highway can't be here..."

The convoy stopped one after another, and the entire crew jumped out of the car and gathered together under the blazing sun. Most of them were still at a loss, not knowing what happened.

They just asked each other in a mess, and soon everyone learned that at this moment, they and others had walked out of the desert without man's land and came to the northern part of the Tuck Desert.

"No, it's definitely not that we went wrong! It's this road! This desert highway has moved more than a hundred kilometers to the north!" A deputy director said with eyes widened, holding his phone in disbelief.

Soon, a piece of doubt was harvested.

After all, this statement is too incredible.

However, in the next second, everyone suddenly felt that their surroundings had cooled down... To be precise, a huge shadow enveloped them in the blink of an eye. It seemed that something was covering the sun.

"Ah! Look over there!" a protagonist suddenly shouted, pointing to the south.

Everyone hurriedly watched, and then, the messy team was silent for a moment!

I saw that just in front of them, an extremely huge shadowy high wall slowly emerged in the twisted air. The wall was probably hundreds of meters or even kilometers high, and it spread infinitely in the east-west direction.

Under the gaze of everyone, just a few breaths, it turned from illusion to real matter.

As if dividing the world into two.

If you pull the viewing angle high enough, you will see it.

At this moment, an incomparably huge, irregular, and opaque black "cover" resembles a huge "bowl", covering the entire Tuck Desert with nearly 300,000 square kilometers of land!

...

...

Lishan, martial arts hall, dilapidated old house.

Lin Tuo stood by the sand table, quietly watching a slightly dark translucent cover seal the sand table, and realized that this is the so-called "isolation cover".

It is also the shell of the "sandbox" in creative mode.

Based on the information in his mind, he knew that this isolation shield was extremely strong, and with the current civilization of the earth, it could not be broken or detected.

Although it appears translucent in the sandbox, in fact, both the life inside the sandbox and the humans outside are insurmountable and invisible.

As for the desert roads and several important engineering buildings he marked, the personnel have been safely moved outside the sandbox under the power of the evolving sand table.

"I am afraid that the satellite has already noticed the abnormality at this moment. Soon, news of the entire desert being isolated will spread..." Lin Tuo subconsciously glanced at the mobile phone placed aside.

After hesitating, he walked over to mute it.

While he was doing this, the entire sand table was also changing, and an imperceptible force quietly swept across the vast desert.

As a result, countless animals hidden under the yellow sand in the Tuck Desert died at this moment.

The plant withered within a few breaths.

Lin Tuo is not surprised by this, knowing that this is part of the "antivirus".

[Sandbox No. 1 has been constructed, and it has been detected that the current environment is not suitable for evolving civilization, please provide the necessary basic materials...]

A large piece of information flooded into his mind again, and Lin Tuo sorted it out. It probably meant that the desert environment was too single and he needed to enrich it.

Apart from other things, it is necessary to provide basic soil and water.

Although these substances are also in the desert, if Lin Tuo provides some help, it can save a lot of time for derivation.

"Well... the sand must be removed first." Lin Tuo whispered to himself, and then walked out the door, turned his head to the utility room, and found a shovel and a small cart.

Parked the car at the door, Lin Tuo came into the house with a shovel, took a deep breath, and shoveled a sand dune.

According to the information given by the evolving sand table, he knew that in the creative mode, his actions would not affect the area outside the sand table.

In other words, even if you dig hard, you don’t have to worry about causing an earthquake.

The "isolation enclosure" does not only exist on the surface, but separates the Tuck Desert from the earth in all directions.

"Get up."

As Lin Tuo raised his shovel.

Tuck Desert area.

Over the 300,000 square kilometers of land that was isolated, the air was slightly distorted, and immediately, a shovel that covered the sky and sun appeared!

The shovel fell mercilessly, and easily picked up a sand dune weighing hundreds of billions of tons, uprooted it, and lifted it to the sky.

After reaching a certain height, suddenly disappeared with the huge shovel.

In the desert, only a horrible pit was left.

"Wow."

Putting a shovel of sand into the cart, Lin Tuo curiously reached out and felt it, and found that the "sand" was as small as dust.

"It seems that there is a scale conversion mechanism inside this sand table. When ordinary things enter from the sand table, they will be enlarged.

As long as the sand of normal size is taken out of the sand table, it will be as tiny as dust."

Lin Tuo retracted his hand, his eyes thoughtful.

It feels... it's amazing.

Shaking his head, Lin Tuo didn't think much anymore. He seized the time and got busy again. After a few minutes, he shoveled out a whole sand table and poured it on the open space in the backyard of the martial arts hall with a cart.

When the entire Tuck Desert was cleaned up, Lin Tuo switched to digging for earth and rocks.

"The more complex the basic material of the sand table, the less difficult it is to evolve." Lin Tuo murmured softly, and then began to dig the soil from the back mountain and transfer it into the sand table.

The backyard of the martial arts museum is a forest with bamboos and flowers and plants. Although it seems to be decayed because it has not been cleaned for a long time, the soil here is really good.

During the transfer process, Lin Tuo also discovered that when he put the soil in the backyard into the sand table, the minute he entered the isolation cover, the tiny creatures in the soil would die, and the color of the soil would even change.

The area of ​​the sand table is not small, and Lin Tuo has tossed back and forth several times before it is considered to be full.

Immediately, he took water from the well in the courtyard and poured it into the sand table.

After hesitating, he turned out a few discarded metal parts from the utility room and threw them into the sand table.

"This should be fine."

Lin Tuo wiped his sweat, then looked at the sand table and muttered.

[The sand table has met the basis of derivation, do you want to start the project?

In my mind, information emerged at the right time.

"Turn on." Lin Tuo said.

Immediately, the entire sand table was covered with a layer of brilliance, and there seemed to be some kind of transformation inside it, which only lasted a few seconds before calming down.

Inside the sand table, some minor changes have taken place.

Lin Tuo noticed that a rotating nebula appeared above the sand table, which seemed to be a simulation of the universe by the sandbox referring to the outside world.

There is also a sun and a corresponding moon in the universe.

"Is it necessary to simulate the moon?" Lin Tuo couldn't help but complain. After all, the essence of this sand table world is not a planet, but a flat earth.

But the derivation sand table seems to be completely simulated based on the environment of the earth.

In other words, the evolution of the entire sand table was originally carried out in accordance with the parameters of the earth.

"In this way, there will be an independent ecology inside the sandbox." Lin Tuo looked at the earth again and found that the land has also changed.

Those originally rough soil particles, under the action of the sand table, turned into countless fine dusts, and uplifted, forming primitive mountains and hills.

The water that I poured into it also gathered together and became the ocean and lake.

It seems that there is a rudimentary form of the world anyway.

[Sandbox No. 1 has been started, and it is running...]

Lin Tuo also discovered at this time that the virtual panel on his retina had changed.

Except for the "creative mode" and the "back button" in the upper left corner.

There is an extra line of "Current Environment Ether Concentration", but the word "None" follows.

It should be a detection of the ether in the sand table world.

In addition, there is a toolbox icon.

Click to open, there are only two functions inside.

One is the opening and closing of the "isolation hood", which is in the open state at the moment, Lin Tuo ignored it.

The other is "time flow rate".

"Dynamic adjustment" and "Synchronization with external" can be selected.

The meaning is also very simple.

"Dynamic adjustment" is an ability in the creation mode of "derived sand table", which will automatically adjust the ratio of the internal time of sandbox 1 to the external flow rate according to the computing power and environment of the sand table.

In short, in the initial stage, when the complexity of the internal environment of the sandbox is low, the proportion is high.

Possibly, in reality, in an hour, hundreds of millions of years have passed in the sandbox.

With the emergence of civilization in the sandbox and the increase in complexity, the time ratio will decrease.

In reality, one hour, in the sandbox, may only have passed a few hundred years, or even shorter.

Lin Tuo knew that the reason for this was because the more complicated the environment in the sandbox, the greater the computing power required, so he could only reduce the flow rate, otherwise the computing power of the sandbox would not be able to support it.

As for "synchronizing with the outside", it is a manual switch. Lin Tuo can adjust the internal and external time flow rate to 1:1 at any time.

It is to synchronize the time inside the sand table with reality.

"This function is pretty good, it's very worry-free..." Lin Tuo smiled.

Except for this toolbox, the large area in the center of the entire virtual panel is blank.

"Such a large blank area is not very coordinated." Lin Tuo couldn't help but spit out from the designer's perspective.

However, in the next second, he found that the blank area began to click and click:

[Operation log:]

[In a certain year, certain month, certain second, the world evolves and opens. At that time, it was a quiet world with irregular shapes.

There is no life on the surface, full of chaotic soil, sand, water, and a small amount of metal. However, it already has the basis for the birth of life]

[100 million years have passed, the world has not changed]

[200 million years have passed, it still remains the same]

...

[When the time came to the fifth billion years, there was a wave of fluctuations in the dead ocean]
