[Anomalocaris and Corpse-Eating Flower fall into madness during their war.]
[As more species go extinct, the world grows eerily quiet. The world barrier weakens, and more cosmic knowledge pours in!]
[Both Overlords perish due to food shortages and mental collapse from cosmic overload.]
[Tianyuan Realm falls into silence. This simulation ends.]
[Total species born: 1150. Creation Points earned: +290. Landmass expanded to 5 kilometers!]
[Simulation lasted two Eras. Cooldown: 15 minutes.]
Staring at the summary, Su Bai sighed.
"Victorious by Cthulhu, defeated by Cthulhu."
"What would've happened if I just let things crawl forward without its interference?"
He couldn't help but wonder.
But wasn't that what the God Simulator was for—unlimited trial and error?
Others had to manage their worlds with extreme caution, terrified that a single slip would blow everything up.
But he could go wild, make sweeping reforms—if it didn't work, just restart.
Maybe that's why the second simulation ended at mid-Era II, with even a shortened cooldown.
As Su Bai pondered, a new line appeared:
[You may keep one of the following:]
[Primordial Mother Spores, Flowering Plant Seeds, Devourer Worm, Anomalocaris, Corpse-Eating Flower...]
The options were far more abundant this time.
Two stood out immediately—the two mutated Overlords.
One ruled the ocean, the other the land.
Both represented extremes in evolution.
"I choose Anomalocaris."
Decision made.
Next came the temporary Talent lock-in—and this part made Su Bai frown.
Cthulhu was powerful, but fragile—too likely to destroy the ecosystem prematurely.
Meanwhile, Gluttonous Devourer was far more stable and promoted evolutionary convergence toward perfect organisms.
"But Cthulhu's effects—both positive and negative—are on par with orange-grade Talents.
This simulation's gains were largely thanks to it."
"One more try. If it fails, I'll switch it out for sure."
Weighing the pros and cons, Su Bai chose to keep Call of Cthulhu.
Still, what he really wanted was that guaranteed orange Talent from the 10x pull.
He glanced at the interface. Current Creation Points: 2109.
That was mostly thanks to the Cambrian explosion bonus—unlikely to be repeated.
Still, with Tianyuan Realm now expanded to 5 kilometers, he had finally reached the average standard for most awakened.
By comparison, Xiang Hu's 10 kilometers made him a campus standout.
And Chi Lansu's 20 kilometers? One of only a few in the entire graduating class.
If someone awakened a special world or rare energy, they'd be directly admitted into one of the Ten Starry Sky Academies.
Su Bai shook his head and cut off that line of thought.
His consciousness returned to the real world.
To his surprise—his body had strengthened.
Loose muscles had tightened, his lung capacity had increased—
He could lift 50 kilograms with one hand!
"I'd heard that as a world's origin grows, it feeds back into the World Master's body."
"Normally this happens slowly—energy in, life out, and the World Master evolves over time."
"But with the simulator, I'm skyrocketing."
He grinned.
The only downside? It was probably a one-time boost.
And the next simulation would start from scratch—one kilometer again.
"I wonder when I'll be able to retain world size between simulations..."
It must be a future feature. The system's note about world size affecting Creation Point cost hinted at it.
The second simulation had paid off massively.
Su Bai sat quietly, recovering, until—
[Ding-dong. Cooldown complete!]
"Let's keep going."
He plunged back into the simulator.
As the familiar flicker of text reappeared—
"I really hope the orange Talent shows up this time."
Heart pounding, he tapped 10x Talent Draw.
One by one, smoky silhouettes appeared—Talents shimmering in the dark.
Su Bai scanned quickly—still no orange Talent.
But there it was—another purple!
Stronger than Gluttonous Devourer, and—amazingly—synergized with Call of Cthulhu!
[Zombie Virus (Purple)]: You will release a biological virus into the world. Infected creatures undergo demonic transformation—
tremendously increasing physical and mental power, but greatly reducing sanity and intelligence.
Lowers the chance of Civilization emergence.
May create fascinating reactions when paired with Talents of similar alignment.
[Bloodthirsty Slaughter (Blue)]: Creatures gain XP and evolve faster through killing. Encourages aggression and transformation.
"Well, everyone's going crazy anyway—might as well go full extreme."
"Cthulhu... let's see how far you can take this."
This time, Su Bai went all-in.
He chose the most radical route. In real-world worldbuilding, he'd never dare this—
But this was a simulation!
Soon, the third simulation began.
[Bring any cards?]
"Bring the Climate Card."
He hesitated slightly, opting not to use the S-grade card—the cost was just too high.
Better to save up more Creation Points and test it later.
[Beginning the journey of divine Creation—]
[Heaven and Earth are opened. God Su Bai awakens. Tianyuan Realm is born.]
[Era I, Early Phase: You declare, "Let there be rain."
Rain falls—but unexpectedly, this downpour brings not just life...
but also virus and madness!
(Climate Card activated. Talent Zombie Virus in effect!)**
"That fast?"
Su Bai was surprised. This simulation was going to be wild.
[Era I, Middle Phase: Blue-green algae mutates into Blood Algae.
A bloody haze spreads across the sea surface.]
[Trilobites and jawed fish go insane—frenzied killing begins.
Among them, Anomalocaris reaps the most benefit, quickly dominating the seas.
(Bloodthirsty Slaughter Talent activated)]
[Era I, Late Phase: The ocean becomes a sea of blood.
But Anomalocaris doesn't survive to the end.
A new creature emerges—tentacled, octopus-like, highly adapted to cosmic whispers...]
[This "Dark Octo-Fiend" retains a sliver of sanity amidst the madness.
It learns to plan and scheme, growing from the shadows.
Starting by devouring weak fish species, it expands its clan, avoiding Anomalocaris patrols.]
"A double negative becomes a positive?"
Su Bai was delighted—in a world engulfed in madness, one creature still kept its mind?
That was rare.
Even more exciting—Tianyuan Realm had already expanded to 8 kilometers!
And it hadn't even finished the first Era!
"Seems like every species has different adaptivity.
The Octo-Fiend thrives under Cthulhu's influence."
He focused again, eyes fixed on the unfolding simulation...
