A flicker of light flashed across the screen, and ten Talents appeared in sequence.
Su Bai glanced at them.
Unfortunately, the guaranteed orange Talent still hadn't shown up.
Aside from Call of Cthulhu, there was another purple Talent.
Considering he went with an extreme strategy last time, Su Bai wanted to switch things up.
"Can the meteor crisis at the end of the third era be avoided? What difficulties lie in the later stages?"
Soon, he completed his three Talent selections. This time, he did not include Cthulhu.
Instead, he picked three entirely new Talents.
[The art of lying low (Purple): With this Talent, all creatures prioritize survival above all else. They will avoid conflict and self-destruction as much as possible. Their evolution will also follow this path.]
[Reproductive Movement (Blue): Mass reproduction. Greatly increases biological fertility, causing populations to explode.]
[Self-Entertainment (Blue): Your creatures will not fear loneliness or time. +10 to mental health, +10 to joy.]
This simulation had one clear goal.
One word: Survive!
[Selections complete. Please confirm whether to include cards or native creatures.]
[1. D-Rank Climate Card (Cost: 1 Creation Point)]
[2. S-Class Doomsday Catastrophe Card (Cost: 100 Creation Points)]
[3. Transcendent Creature - Tentacle Monarch (Cost: 10 Creation Points)]
Su Bai thought for a moment and once again selected the Climate Card.
He left the other two untouched.
[Ding! Please note, due to the expanded world size, this simulation will consume 200 Creation Points.]
Su Bai winced a little, but he knew it was worth it.
Starting with a world ten times larger would surely mean ten times more creatures.
"Begin simulation!"
[Initiating Creation Journey——]
[Heaven and Earth are born. God Su Bai awakens. The Tianyuan Realm is established.]
[Early First Era: You commanded rain, and the heavens delivered a torrential downpour. The rain brought life to the ocean.]
[Climate Card activated. Talent Reproductive Movement triggered.]
[Mid First Era: Primordial organisms such as proto-bacteria and clovers emerged on the seafloor. They were active and lively, and soon the oceans bustled with life.]
[As the number of creatures increased, the Tianyuan Realm steadily expanded...]
[Late First Era: A creature called Sea Spider truly mastered the art of survival. To avoid being hunted, they evolved into utterly useless bodies with zero edible meat.]
[On the grand oceanic stage, other dominant species like the Giant Shrimp and Devourer Fish appeared one after another, developing cautiously and occasionally clashing.]
[Early Second Era: Angiosperms and mosses were the first to colonize land, spreading freely across the surface.
Lush and vibrant, life thrived. A close relative of the Sea Spider evolved into an amphibious species and began migrating onto land.]
[This subspecies, known as the Bamboo Bug Spider, initially dominated coastal areas and began to reproduce.]
[Meanwhile, Sea Spiders that remained in deep-sea corners followed a different evolutionary path. Talent Self-Entertainment activated. Sea Spiders +10 Happiness.]
"Larger world area really makes a difference—so many lifeforms evolved this quickly."
Su Bai observed carefully, eager to see where these diverse evolutionary paths would lead.
[Mid Second Era: Marine creatures began moving onto land one by one. At last, the land became the main stage. Mosses evolved into ferns, enhancing their ability to absorb sunlight and cosmic energy. The Tianyuan Realm evolved faster.]
[ Innate Talent for the Art of Lying Low took effect! Arthropods and vertebrates competed with extreme caution.]
[Late Second Era: Thanks to flourishing fern development, the land area of the Tianyuan Realm expanded to 15 kilometers. Oxygen levels rose, and thin traces of spiritual energy began to form.]
Up to this point, the Tianyuan Realm hadn't quite reached the peak of the previous simulation.
Possibly due to the Talents, biological competition was especially subdued.
It took an entire era for a true overlord to emerge.
[Late Third Era: You observed the Tianyuan Realm reaching 19 kilometers in size. On land, Bamboo Bug Spiders continued to evolve, developing wings and hardened carapaces.]
[These creatures, known as Allomyina dichotoma, ultimately became the dominant rulers of the era, reigning supreme!]
[The losers in this evolutionary arms race went extinct. A few regressed and returned to the ocean.]
[Following a different path, the Sea Spiders remained largely unchanged after an entire era, quietly filling low-tier marine ecological niches.]
[All three Talents remained active. Sea Spider population surpassed one million, becoming the silent overlords of the deep. +10 Happiness, +10 Joy.]
"The big moment is coming."
Everything felt stable now. All that remained was to see when that meteor would arrive.
[Late Third Era: Despite your tense anticipation, the cosmos remained calm. No signs of mechanical descent.]
[The Allomyina dichotoma continued to evolve. Their strongest leader became known as the Hercules beetle As oxygen and spiritual energy increased, their strength, speed, and defense reached perfection.]
[Early Fourth Era: Under the leadership of the Stag Beetle, the beetles solidified their reign. Internal factional evolution began.]
[Most grew larger and stronger. The Stag Beetle firmly believed that bigger and tougher meant stronger! As they expanded, other insects filled in the newly vacated ecological niches.]
[Mid Fourth Era: With the Stag Beetle at the helm, the Tianyuan Realm entered a new chapter, historically recorded as the Insect Age.]
[Reward: Creation Points +100]
[Late Fourth Era: Sky-darkening insects dominated land, sea, and air, reaching their peak.]
[Sea Spiders remained content in the ocean, showing no desire to evolve or move onto land.]
...
What followed became repetitive—invincible insects began turning on each other.
Driven by food shortages, they damaged the environment and devoured plant life.
Su Bai kept watching as the timeline reached the Sixth Era—
A milestone he had never reached before!
"Strange... it's been so long. That meteor should've arrived by now, even if delayed."
Su Bai was baffled.
Something was off.
Suspiciously off.
