Chapter 5: Bold Ideas

Vaguely, Vodka felt like it must be crazy.

I was frightened crazy by the intense fire that fell from the sky and killed my companions.

But perhaps it is precisely because of madness that an idea will sprout in its heart, and once it appears, it can no longer be suppressed:

Master this power!

Flames, in the savannah, it has been seen several times.

Every time, even the beasts that had chased them and fled would tremble and not dare to approach.

But when the flames are extinguished, the flame-fearing beasts rush forward again and bite at the corpses that are ripe in the flames.

Flame is something that all beings fear.

Cooked food is something that all living beings pursue.

Two...... You can have both!

"Don't touch it again, you'll die too!" shouted the apes desperately, but they didn't dare to come closer.

Vodka stares at the flames in front of him.

Gradually, everything else faded from the eyes.

There was nothing but fire in its eyes.

Hands, trembling outstretched.

Its mind couldn't help but recall the scenes, screaming, fleeing, and flames......

The fragments of the large tree, which was still burning with flames, were held lightly and stiffly by it.

When it picks up the wood, the flames dance with it.

It let go of its hands in fright, and the wood fell to the ground, and the flames slammed into the ground like a fierce beast.

Pick it up again, and the flames are as vicious as ever.

Vodka stared blankly at all this.

A kind of ecstasy gradually filled the heart.

"I've got ...... I made it!"

It held aloft the flaming wood, looked at the other apes in ecstasy, and shouted:

"Brothers, this is what killed our companions, fire!"

"It is so powerful that even the beasts fear it, and fear that it will bring them death!"

"It is incomparably dangerous, fierce and greedy, and whoever touches it will be devoured!"

"But! now, it's in my hand, I want it to the left, it can't go to the right, I want it to go forward, it can't go back—"

"I've got it!"

The apes were dead silent.

It's not because of anything else, it's just because their brains can't react.

A moment ago, they were afraid of the flames like lions and tigers, but now they are in the hands of vodka, fluttering like cats.

I don't know who reacted first, with ecstasy, and shouted "Vodka!" The other apes woke up one after another, and the color of ecstasy was overflowing.

"Vodka!

Vodka said: "The days when we were hunted by beasts are over! From this day on, they are the prey, and we who have mastered the fire are the hunters!"

Perhaps, they who have not, and cannot truly master the flame, will suffer a lot because of the flame in the future.

But for now, at least, their status in the savannah, and everywhere in the future, has been reversed.

An ape howled as it held up a flaming piece of wood, surrounded by several charred corpses of its kind, and nearly a dozen apes gathered around him, dancing in ecstasy......

This scene, like thunder falling, fires appearing, trees burning, and apes frightened, will be preserved forever.

Remain in the ape's heart.

It remained in Wang'an's mind.

"Mastered the flame...... If they can survive until they master the art of making fire, maybe this group of steppe apes will one day grow into the undisputed overlord of this primordial planet. ”

Wang'an took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

As a "human" who has evolved for a long time to get to where he is today, he knows very well how important the plasma called "fire" that this group of apes has mastered at this moment is in the history of the race.

This is also the reason why he chose the steppe ape to start:

This is the only intelligent species on the entire primordial planet that should have moved on four legs, but evolved to walk on two feet and do things with free limbs.

They are the most likely to control the fire!

"Presentation: A great success. 」

"Racial unity +20. 」

"The race gains a new trait: Children of Fire. 」

"Son of Fire?" Wang'an said, frowning slightly, check the details:

Trait - Children of Fire: Blessed by the Fire, they conquer the earth with fire, they are the only creatures that control fire, and they are the nightmare of all future terrestrial creatures.

Wang'an's brows jumped, and he always felt that there was something wrong with this explanation.

This style of painting......

Why does it seem magical?

No, it should be just a simple secondary two, and the whole description is just that after the ape controls the flames, he can be powerful and blessed all over the world.

He rubbed his temples and asked tentatively, "This civilization...... Is it scientific?"

"Every civilization is scientific. 」

"No, there's magic and cultivation. ”

"Magic is also a part of science, and if there is a "black box" type of magic technology, a civilization can only use it but cannot know its principle, which only means that the civilization does not have the corresponding knowledge - just like modern people play with mobile phones all day long, but few people know the detailed principles of mobile phones. 」

"Is that so?" Wang'an pondered for a moment, feeling that what he said made sense.

"By the way, I think you can do something about bold ideas?" he asked.

As soon as he learned about the function of "cultivating civilization", he had an idea:

If it takes too much time and energy to do it yourself, can you outsource this hard work and let someone else explode his liver for him?

The reason for putting this idea down for the time being is because he hasn't officially tried to cultivate civilization, and it's hard to say.

Now that he's tried, it's really time-consuming:

Even if he drove to speed up halfway and experienced two choice events, it still took him a lot of time, and he was still not far from forming a civilization.

As soon as he found out about this, his heart became impulsive when he wanted to do something, after all, he began to cultivate civilization, not to enjoy it, but to raise a level 0 civilization, synthesize a high-level civilization, and grow more hair.

Although cultivating civilization is quite fun.

"Still, I have a boldness!"

Then Wang'an said: "You said, if I outsource the process of 'cultivating civilization', such as packaging it into a game, let interested players work for free, or even pay us to work, let them cultivate civilization in large quantities, and then we can use it to synthesize advanced civilizations......"

"What a great idea! You're a genius!"

Wang'an smiled, thinking that this intelligence would be complicit in him, colluding with him, and embarrassed......

"But the Civilization Synthesizer has bound you, and only you can use its features, and no one else can use it. 」

Wang'an's smile froze.

Is that actually the case?

"But if you dare to mention it, I will dare to do it, let me calculate how to bypass the restrictions and achieve my goals......

A minute later.

"I've found a loophole! Just disguise all the other people as your shape, pretend that you are the only one who operates in multiple lines, and cultivate multiple civilizations at the same time, maybe it can be achieved!"

"It's just that you may have to pay a big price. 」

As soon as Wang'an was a little excited, he was poured cold water: "So, what is the price?"

"The price is that you can learn what all the players are doing when they develop civilization, and if you have too much information, you may not be able to stand it. 」

Wang'an fell into deep thought.

That's a big price.
