Chapter 2 Welcome to your island
There was a sudden faint glow at the buttons of the gaming device, which felt faint but very noticeable. Even in the midday sun's rays, the faint light will make people notice that it is on.
"Yes, electricity?" Xu Wu muttered as he walked over to the device, crouching down to see what would happen next.
A little bit of light gradually spreads to the device's display, and as the display lights up, the disc begins to rotate gradually. A slight sound starts from the middle device.
(Unknown language, meaning system reset, please wait!)"
It seems to be the same phrase repeating itself over and over again. But if you don't understand, you can't understand, what's the use of repeating it constantly!
"Hey, I don't understand!" Xu Wu's voice was not loud, but his words were full of resentment.
"(In the process of network analysis, in the process of language translation, translation completed) The system is reset, please wait!" The voice of the device suddenly changed to pure Mandarin, and the voice also changed to the usual narration voice.
Xu Wu's eyes widened uncontrollably, looking at the game device that was constantly running, and his mouth was open. Can it understand what I'm saying? Can it automatically adjust the language? Is this a god?
He was stunned, okay? The sudden appearance of such a black technology on his most unlucky day had a strong impact on his young 18-year-old and 60-month-old mind.
"The game is loading, loaded, please start. It didn't take long for the black technology device to be loaded, and to Xu Wu's surprise, this was really a game!!
If you make a game with such technology, you are not afraid of being damned. Xu Wu complained like this, but his curiosity was still explosive, and he immediately rushed to the display screen, wanting to see how to play this black technology game.
As Xu Wu approached, light gradually cast directly above the game device, and a three-dimensional operation interface was displayed in front of Xu Wu in a soft form.
When I looked closer, I noticed that a changing face appeared on the previous display screen, looking at Xu Wu through the screen paradoxically.
"Artificial intelligence?" Xu Wu's eyes widened, and the tears left on his jaw almost dripped onto the device.
The stereoscopic interface of the device is very simple, with only two options to start the game and close the game. The two buttons that float in the air seem to be in essence, and you can even see the shadow on the ground.
Xu Wu stretched out his hand and poked it on the launch game, it was touchy, there was a touch, he felt like he had touched a stone, cold and hard. How can it be touched? It's amazing.
The performance of the button to start the game is not the same as it feels, like a piece of ice that will break when touched, and it will be broken by Xu Wu's light touch, and then it will be broken with a real game interface.
The broken points of light continued to fly and reorganize in the air, and began to converge and combine around a central point, and soon a three-dimensional island appeared in front of Xu Wu.
The overall shape of the island is an irregular circle, the color is black and yellow, and the mottled ones are very unsightly. Beyond the island is a blue light, and I don't know if it's the sea or the pure outside light of the game.
"What kind of game is this?How to play it?Didn't you explain it?What about the beginner tutorial?" Xu Wu looked at the sky and circled around the game box twice, but he didn't find how to play.
Cautiously began to touch the three-dimensional island with his hand, and finally the long-awaited game prompt appeared.
"Hello Owner, this is your own island, please design and arrange creatures on it, and run your island with the goal of increasing the number and diversity of creatures. Start with 3 tons of biomass, start building the ecosystem on your island and maintain its smooth evolution. ”
"Build your own island? It seems to be a management game, and I don't know what the features are. By the way, do you have a name for artificial intelligence? What do I call you? Xu Wu touched his smooth chin, looked at the model of the island, and asked questions about the device.
The face on the display screen is still changing, and when he hears the question, his mouth shape becomes a wave and fluctuates, saying: "The intelligent name of the device needs to be named, the voice needs to be set, and the appearance needs to be set." ”
"Then I'll name it first, otherwise it won't be easy to call you. ”
After the artificial intelligence dropped, Xu Wu said: "The name is Phantom Moon, and the voice is my sister's." Can I use my sister's appearance as well?"
"Is it permissible to start scanning the surrounding space and collecting information about the owner and the owner's sister?"
"Yes, yes. ”
After receiving Xu Wu's slightly hesitant reply, the device emitted a ray that scanned the entire room, stopping at the woman in the group photo on the desk, and when it spread again, it was blocked by the door.
"Please open the door and call out the target?" Phantom Moon's mechanical voice pulsed.
Xu Wu asked with some concern, "Is it okay for her to see this?" Xu Wu pointed to the game device and asked a question that had just come to mind.
"Once a gaming device is turned on, outsiders can't recognize it. The artificial intelligence's explanation made Xu Wu breathe a sigh of relief, and he began to wonder why he couldn't recognize it.
According to the words, Xu Wu pushed open the door of his room and knocked on his sister's room again.
"Yao, open the door, I have something to do with you. ”
The puzzled Xu Yao walked out with headphones, looked at Xu Wu outside the door, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xu Wu suddenly forgot his words, he hadn't thought about what to say, and with a flash of inspiration, he said, "I recently bought a new ornament, you can help me see where it is good." ”
"Okay, I'll see what you bought. Xu Yao walked into Xu Wu's room with the cold drink that had not yet been drunk.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the game equipment placed in the center of the room, and I exclaimed directly: "Brother, did you actually buy a record player? Such a retro thing must be very expensive, right, is it just an ornament? or can it still be used? I'll try it." ”
Seeing that there was still a vinyl record next to the device, I put it on and consciously turned on the switch.
The beautiful melody plays gradually, but it's a Fate Symphony.
Xu Yao gradually closed her eyes with the music, and her body swayed slightly.
It's just that in Xu Wu's eyes, this scene is very weird. He only saw his sister walk into his room, and then walked over to the game device without surprise, reached out and grabbed some air in the empty place, and put it in the position of the 'island' in his eyes, and then the voice of the artificial intelligence rang out: "The data has been collected, and it has been applied." ”
"Aren't you afraid that others will hear it?" Xu Wu shouted in panic.
"Hearing such beautiful and moving music, why are you afraid of being heard? Xu Yao's answer made Xu Wu understand instantly. This game really won't be discovered by outsiders.
What is it? How did it come about? The product of aliens? The power of the gods, The miracle of ancient legends, Or the items that broke through the barriers of another world to get here, The test items that were accidentally stolen from the laboratory?
The sister's words interrupted Xu Wu's train of thought.
"Brother, what you're asking is where to put this record player. Actually, I think I can put it in my room. Xu Yao changed her lines under her brother's gradually changing face.
"Well, it's good to put this window, and it's better to buy a curtain like the night sky, with this antique, it feels good. ”
muttered in his heart, and said that he loved me, and it was not okay to give me an ornament, stingy. After saying the suggestion, she walked back to her room in a huff and slammed the door hard, indicating that she was angry.
"What's the matter, she really uses this as a record player?" Xu Wu's heart was greatly shocked, and he didn't even show any dissatisfaction with his sister.
"This is a function of the device, and the detailed explanation probably doesn't understand it, so I won't explain it. Phantom Moon's voice changed to his sister's, and even the face on the monitor gradually changed to her sister's. Even the habit of speaking, the kind of speaking characteristic that relies on his cuteness and has nothing to say is the most powerful when he learns it.
Xu Wu, who felt that his IQ had been critically hit, said that he would no longer delve into it, and he really couldn't be angry with his sister. He shifted his attention to the game itself.
Do you want to create an ecosystem? And let me arrange the organisms, in fact, is to create a food chain. I'm the owner of the island, so I'm not the man at the top of the food chain?
Xu Wu himself was born as a student of biology, so he naturally had an understanding of basic knowledge, and he began his first attempt.
"Phantom Moon, what creatures can I put in?" asked Xu Wu, who was excited.
"All living things on Earth can invest in islands to build ecosystems and promote their evolution. ”
The first time I tried it, don't use it so much, and, as Phantom Moon said before, I only have 3 tons of biomass, although it seems like a lot, but only 3 tons means that this amount will not increase for me. What happens if the ecosystem collapses?
"Phantasmal Moon, what happens if the ecosystem I built collapses?
"No, depending on the development of the collapse, there is a high probability that it will eventually be turned into nutrients and enter the soil sample. ”
That's it, it's good to ask, otherwise this dumb loss will definitely be decided. Xu Wu pinched his chin and entered into deep thought.
Ecosystems are very common to say, but it is very troublesome to build them out of thin air. Why don't you look for the information first, just copy it.
Xu Wu, who thought of a way, immediately began to rummage through his textbooks and rummage for information on the Internet, and finally saw an article about the grassland, and was immediately overjoyed.
"Phantom Moon, I'm going to put in 3,000 fescues, it should be enough, anyway, it's an experiment, the producer has it, and then put it into the consumer, there must be insects in the grassland, I'll take a look, or put in some ants, this seems to be good, leaf-cutting ants, leaf-cutting ants queen ant, 3,000 worker ants, 4 male ants. ”
At this time, Xu Wu saw such an ant information.
Leafcutter ants cut leaves from trees and other plants and use them to grow fungi, which feed on the larvae and the adults feed on the sap from the chopped leaves.
By the way, the fungus, I haven't released the decomposer yet.
Xu Wu pinched his chin, and found that he really didn't know what fungus to put in, and he always said fungi and fungi in class every day, but he never remembered the specific name, and what kind of fungus did the leafcutter ants eat? Anyway, just a little more, there will always be something to eat.
"100 Penicillium spores, 100 Streptococcal spores, 100 rhizobia spores, 100 enoki mushroom spores, 100 Aspergillus flavus spores, 100 Penicillium spores, and then put some bacteria to let it multiply, by the way, the E. coli that used the most in the test, put 1000 ...... first"
Then Xu Wu took the microbial textbook in his hand and kept reading the name to the phantom moon, the number was uniform, one hundred or one thousand.
The island began to change with Xu Wu's order, and first three thousand green grasses occupied a small area, probably a green spot on the island. As the leafcutter ants are introduced, the green dot gradually begins to shrink.
Then, Xu Wu, who was talking about the rise, received a warning from Phantom Moon: "Warning, the number of fescue has been greatly reduced, and the number is only 1000 left, please pay attention to adjustment." ”
Xu Wu stopped his command, looked at the island hanging in the air, and immediately found a little green in the vast yellow-black area. It's just that a green dot the size of a sesame seed that makes it hard for him to tell what's going on.
"Phantom Moon, can you zoom in?" Xu Wu said. The tone was very hurried, he had just put in 3,000 grasses, but in the process of chanting the name of the fungus, two-thirds of them were gone?
"Please make a zoomed-in gesture, and if you don't understand, please refer to the method you used to use your phone. Phantom Moon said in Xu Yao's voice and tone, at this moment, Xu Wu had a feeling of lifting a brick and hitting his own feet.
At least that's the right advice. He moved his fingers together to magnify the green dots on the island.
As he operated, the phenomenon of small green grass he planted kept appearing in front of him.
The blades of fescue are thin and densely grown, covering the yellow earth in clumps, but on the periphery of this grass are swarms of ants, spreading their huge jaws and cutting the rhizomes of the grass.
The leafcutter ants are numerous, overwhelming, and continue to encroach on fescue's territory at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Why, don't you eat grass? I'm thinking about putting in the trees later. Xu Wu suddenly realized. "There's nothing to eat, but how did it grow so fast? I've only invested 3,000 ants!"
"What's going on with Phantom Moon?" Xu Wu, who was in a hurry, kept looking for support.
"The speed of the game is different from reality, and in the fifteen minutes you set up the creatures, the ants have multiplied for two generations and the fescue has tripled. ”
Is this so? Is it because in the absence of food, leafcutter ants go for the only food and reproduce quickly without natural predators?
What to do, increase the natural enemies of leaf-cutting ants and curb the growth of their numbers.
"Put in two anteaters, one male and one female. ”
At the command, two long-mouthed, round-eared, long-bodied anteaters appeared on the grass.
The image suspended in the air gradually zoomed in, giving a close-up of the anteaters, and Xu Wu could even see the longing in their eyes, which was the look of a large pile of food placed in front of the hungry man.
