Create a sandbox world
Chapter 176
Reboot!
When Lin Tuo gave the order, the virtual panel on the retina suddenly went dark, leaving only a circle to keep rotating, showing that it was still running.
Outside the sand table in the study, a layer of light mask that was barely visible was also brightened, blocking his vision, and the sand table was wrapped in light, which was a little dazzling.
Lin Tuo took a look, then turned away, looking forward to it.
Upgrade... What will change?
Is it a function change... or something else...
When the sun rose outside the window, Lin Tuo became a little nervous. Compared to the unknown functional level changes, he actually looked forward to the acquisition of knowledge.
In other words, I hope this upgrade will allow him to learn more about this item.
After all... the current function is honestly enough.
In contrast, his understanding of the "derivative sand table" itself is seriously insufficient.
This is also the source of his insecurities.
In thinking, time seemed to slow down. In the blink of an eye, the virtual panel lights up again, and in my mind, a message prompt appears:
[Restart of Derivative Sand Table is complete!
Ahead, the dazzling light also slowly dissipated, and Lin Tuo's nervous gaze revealed the upgraded true face.
The next second, when the light completely dissipated.
I saw that in the sand table, there is no longer a flat, melting No. 2 sandbox, but a... Galaxy!
Yes!
Galaxy!
Except for the edge, the middle of that huge table case seemed to have been pulled out of a bottomless hole, and inside was a slightly illusory galaxy!
A round of radiant sun is suspended in the center, releasing light and heat.
On the invisible ring orbit around the sun, there are planets of different sizes.
Outside the planet, there are a few smaller stars scattered.
All stars are illusory, exist in the form of light and shadow, and move between the sky orbits according to their own rules.
The closer to the edge, the more illusory.
"This is... the solar system?" Lin Tuo's eyes shrank, even though the dynamic nebula looks very different from the solar system depicted in books and images...
But when his gaze flicked across Mercury and Venus, he saw the slowly rotating blue illusory ball.
A strange sense of familiarity came to my heart, as if I had some deep-rooted connection with this lovely blue planet...
My heart is extremely determined:
"This is the earth!"
"So, after the upgrade, the coverage of the sand table spread from the earth to the solar system? No... maybe it's still worse. How far is the coverage, and more observations are needed..."
Lin Tuo's heart was surging, and then some doubts:
"This is the'observation mode'? Or what?"
This illusory appearance is actually more similar to the "creative mode"...
Pulling his gaze back, Lin Tuo found that the system panel hadn't changed much, but it was still the same... Two mode options...Mall...
Lin Tuo hesitated and clicked on the "Observation Mode" option, and found that there were also two cards "Rim of Yangcheng" and "Oasis".
"The panel is basically unchanged, but the appearance of the sand table itself has changed..."
Thinking about it, Lin Tuo thought for a while, raised his hand and tried to explore the galaxy... His movements were very slow, for fear of causing any abnormalities.
But soon, he realized that those planets really seemed to be just "light and shadow".
No matter how he disturbed it, it didn't cause any impact, and the huge Jupiter passed directly through his palm...
"Is it because these planets are not under my control?"
Lin Tuoruo realized something, thought about it, raised his hand and pointed towards the same illusory earth, this time it finally made a difference.
When Lin Tuo's fingers touched the surface of the earth, the derivation sand table swelled with a layer of ripples. In a short time, the earth suddenly became larger and filled the entire sand table. The rest of the planets were gone.
"Similar to the'zoom' function? Because there are areas on the earth that I can control, so touch will respond?"
Lin Tuo raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his hand and flicked it lightly, and the whole earth allowed him to rotate...but in reality, there was no abnormality...
"It feels like playing with a globe..."
After making complaints, Lin Tuo quickly discovered that the earth in the sand table as a whole was still illusory, but there were several shining "dots" in the Tuck Desert, the surrounding area of Yangcheng, and the Pacific Ocean.
Lin Tuo raised his hand and touched the "surroundings of Yangcheng", and the earth expanded rapidly again.
In the blink of an eye, only the tiled area of Yangcheng was left in the sand table. There were many cities. At this moment, it was early morning, and the earth was bright.
This is the same as the "observation mode" before the upgrade.
"Current environmental ether concentration: low"
Gee... the display on the virtual panel is also the same as before.
Lin Tuo clicked the "return" button with his mind, and the earth shrank quickly again and turned into an illusory earth again.
Click on the Pacific Ocean, and the sandbox has switched to two sandboxes...just like before.
Lin Tuo studied for a while, then withdrew his hand, exhaled slowly, and had a clear understanding of the upgraded sand table.
A brief summary is as follows:
First, change the appearance, the default viewing angle is a galaxy, more cool.
Second, the remaining functions are basically unchanged. You can switch to the control area by touching the planet or from the panel.
Third, the scope of the creative mode has been expanded. In the past, sandboxes could only be placed in selected locations on Earth. After the upgrade, this scope has expanded to the entire galaxy.
Fourth, the computing power has increased. Originally, because the time in the No. 2 sandbox was synchronized with reality, the "time acceleration" button was grayed out and couldn't be clicked, but this time it lights up again.
...
"Speaking of which, the first two are pretty useless... the main upgrade is the last two." Lin Tuo complained.
Well, the increase in computing power is not unexpected...There is Hathaway's contribution here...The actual significance is also great, which is equivalent to breaking the original system limitation.
Originally, when the "complexity" in the sandbox was equal to reality, it couldn't accelerate anymore. Now, it can. Of course...how much it can accelerate is still uncertain, Lin Tuo estimated that it would not be too much.
However, when he tried to accelerate the number two, the system popped up a prompt, which probably means that if he wants to accelerate, then the evolution of the number three world will stop.
The total amount of computing power is just that much. If you want to accelerate the number two, you must draw the computing power back from the number three...
As the "complexity" increases, sooner or later, it will still face bottlenecks and cannot accelerate.
"It's not bad, at least better than before." Lin Tuo smacked his lips, still satisfied, the key is that this will actually help him collect ether.
As for whether the newly added computing power can derive a civilization that completely surpasses modern times... He thinks that the key technology trees are different.
As for the expansion of the scope of creation, Lin Tuo was not very excited...Although he broke through the inhumane state, he was still in an adapting period and had little demand for ether.
Even if he needed it later, two sandboxes would be enough for him to consume.
As far as the earth is concerned, the Yangcheng pilot is still advancing steadily. Although he hasn't paid much attention recently, everything is going well. He feels that there is no need to open the sandbox recently.
As for what he desires most, the understanding of the sand table... does not seem to have... Huh?
Just when Lin Tuo was thinking about it, he suddenly saw a change that he had overlooked!
In the upper right corner of the system panel, there is a small icon similar to a mailbox.
At this moment, the icon seems to be flickering slightly.
"what is this?"
Lin Tuo was startled, but there was none before.
Try to open it with consciousness...A new page pops up...On the empty page, there is only one message, the title of four words:
System Record
recording?
Lin Tuo's heart moved, breathing quickly subconsciously.
These four words are really imaginative...
Vaguely, he felt that this was what he was looking forward to.
Without hesitation, click and turn on!
In the next second, Lin Tuo felt his mind dizzy slightly, and a stream of information poured into his sea of consciousness. It was actually...some pictures.
In a daze, Lin Tuo's soul seemed to fly away, entering this information flow, and there was no longer a study room or a mountain away, but an endless sea of stars.
It seems that I have been substituted into some "identity".
Galloping in the sea of stars.
Surrounded by a silent deep sky, there was no sound, only strange stars.
'This is the perspective of the record?What did you substitute?life?Or the sand table itself?'Lin Tuo thought of turning and wanted to move his perspective, but couldn't do it.
There is no way to know the state of "self".
It can only be judged that the moving speed is extremely fast through the changes of the stars... I don't know how long it has passed, and suddenly, "I" broke into an asteroid belt.
There was a brief chaos in front of him, and the record seemed to be missing a section...When Lin Tuo's eyes became clear again, he had already entered a new star field.
In the quiet and cold universe, a group of light appeared.
That is the sun.
This is... the solar system!
Lin Tuo was suddenly taken aback. Although there are differences, the star field in front of him is clearly similar to the star sea after the upgrade of the derived sand table.
When a huge gaseous Jupiter appeared in the field of vision, this guess became certain.
"This record...is it the process of evolving the sand table to earth?A long record?So, it actually came from the depths of the universe?'
Lin Tuo's heart was full of emotions, like raging waves, but he became more focused on observation.
After a long time, "Self" finally came to the vicinity of "Earth", the blue planet was so eye-catching, it made "Self" stop.
'Self' seemed to watch it seriously for a while, and then fell straight towards the blue planet. Lin Tuo was surprised to find that the continents on the earth were not in their current layout.
There are no continents, different plates, except for the ocean, there is only one huge piece of land.
What'self' fell is the center of the only land.
As he approached, Lin Tuo further discovered that the earth at this moment was incomparably barren. There were no trees, and no large animals could be seen. Perhaps there were in the ocean, but not.
The whole world is full of primitive and barren atmosphere.
After another while,'self' finally fell into a mountain range, not landing, but falling!
'Own' body seems to be injured.
At this time, because of the atmosphere, Lin Tuo finally heard the sound.
The sound of the wind...and the violent and painful gasp of'self'.
Yes!
respite!
The "recorder" who left this picture is indeed a life!
Moreover, the shadow on the ground is also a human shadow!
Silhouette!
Although it is deformed due to the angle of the sun, what is projected by "self" is definitely a human shadow!
Traveling across the universe, it was humans who left this record?
At this moment, Lin Tuo was really surprised.
