Another Simulation, A Bloody Ocean
[Creatures have developed intelligence. You've earned 200 points of Creation Essence.]
John hadn't expected the giant umbrella jellyfish to develop intelligence so quickly.
He was somewhat hopeful, curious if they would evolve again into a more advanced intelligent species.
[In the early First Era, the slightly intelligent giant umbrella jellyfish began to gather for hunting, allowing them to obtain food from the ocean more efficiently.]
[At the same time, they also developed a unique way of communicating, capable of expressing their thoughts simply. This small step for them was a giant leap for intelligent life.]
[The giant umbrella jellyfish have developed a language. You've earned 100 points of Creation Essence!]
John nodded, the emergence of language signified the evolution of the giant umbrella jellyfish towards intelligent beings.
This was good news for John.
Intelligent beings are the cornerstone of the Creation World.
Without intelligent beings, there would be no power of faith, and John's leveling up would be extremely slow.
In his past life, John had struggled with this, stuck at a low level for a long time without a breakthrough.
He hadn't expected to have the chance to acquire an intelligent species so quickly in this life.
[In the mid-First Era, relying on their intelligence and strength, the giant umbrella jellyfish dominated the ocean, with various gathering places of giant umbrella jellyfish appearing in the seas.]
[In the late First Era, the rich ocean resources led to a minor biological explosion, with various fish species appearing, including some supernatural creatures. (Evolver activated!)]
[A type of large fish without eyes, armored all over, and with sharp teeth, appeared in the seas.And they quickly formed a significant population due to their strong reproductive abilities.]
[However, their strength was too weak. They can only serve as food for giant umbrella jellyfish and pose no threat to their dominant position.]
[In the early Second Era, among the giant umbrella jellyfish, some individuals with higher intelligence appeared. They could not only use mysterious powers but also possessed far superior intelligence to their kin. (Born Extraordinary activated!)]
["Giant umbrella jellyfish" evolved into "Giant Spirit Jellyfish". 100 points of Creation Essence had been obtained!]
A giant spirit jellyfish, over ten meters in size and capable of releasing electrical arcs, appeared before John, lighting up his eyes.
The giant spirit jellyfish had evolved, reaching a D-grade quality!
Normally, to evolve a giant spirit jellyfish, John would need to spend a lot of resources to cultivate them.
But the Ring of Retrospection allowed John to benefit without any cost.
[In the mid-Second Era, more creatures appeared in the ocean, and many plants appeared on land. Those special individuals among the giant spirit jellyfish became the kings of their groups, leading their kin in hunting across different seas, without encroaching on each other.]
[To counter the hunting of the giant spirit jellyfish, a type of fish evolved hard armor and sharp teeth. Among these fish, some individuals also possessed special powers, some even capable of killing their natural predators, the giant spirit jellyfish. (Evolver, Born Extraordinary activated!)]
[Supernatural creature "Armored Fish" appeared, earning 50 points of Creation Essence!]
[The world's area increased to 30 kilometers. 100 points of Creation Essence had been obtained!!]
An armored fish, over a meter long and covered in black armor, appeared before John.
It had terrifyingly sharp, dense teeth, resembling a giant piranha.
John smiled.
"Armored Fish," a D-grade quality supernatural creature, had potential no less than the giant spirit jellyfish.
John continued to read.
[In the late Second Era, limited by their living environment, the population of giant spirit jellyfish stagnated. The kings among them were not satisfied with the large territories occupied by other kings, leading to conflicts.]
[As time passed, the conflicts intensified. And eventually, to compete for living space, a great war among the giant spirit jellyfish broke out, resulting in a significant reduction in their numbers.]
The lightning illuminated the seas, and many giant spirit jellyfish died in the war, causing John a pang of regret.
These giant spirit jellyfish had a terrific start but didn't cherish it. Instead of developing their species, they engaged in internal strife.
The giant spirit jellyfish were on a path to death.
It was just as John had predicted.
[In the early Third Era, the internal war among the giant spirit jellyfish ended, and their population was almost halved. Seizing this opportunity, the armored fish, which had been waiting on the sidelines for an era, boldly attacked them.]
[Countless armored fish swarmed out like the sea, and their population had exploded to a terrifying extent at some unknown time.]
[Once the prey, they now became the hunters, easily exterminating the giant spirit jellyfish with their hard armor and bodies, quickly driving the giant spirit jellyfish off the stage of history.]
[A new world ruler has emerged, the ocean's area increased to 40 kilometers!]
In the azure sea, the bodies of countless giant spirit jellyfish floated.
They were being devoured by numerous armored fish, quickly disappearing without a trace.
John's mouth twitched.
The intelligent species he had placed his hopes on hadn't even sparked the flame of civilization before being wiped clean by the armored fish?
But John also knew that survival of the fittest was a natural law. Anything could happen.
Now, John could only hope that these simple-minded armored fish could bring him some surprises.
As it turned out, the surprise did indeed come quickly.
[In the mid-Third Era, with their ferocious nature, the armored fish, having nearly exterminated the giant spirit jellyfish, began to prey on other marine creatures.]
[The densely packed armored fish swept through the sea like a meat grinder, leaving no life in their wake.]
John's heart was half cold at this point.
These armored fish were like locusts.
Without intelligence, they would only lead this world to destruction.
John already had a premonition about how things would unfold.
[In the early Third Era, after consuming all the creatures in the sea, the armored fish, lacking a food source, turned their sights on their own kind, beginning a brutal infighting!]
[A large number of armored fish went extinct, and their blood and rotting bodies polluted the ocean, exacerbating the already fragile ecosystem.]
[The world collapses. The simulation ends!]
[12,327 points of Creation Essence had been obtained.]
Based on the different simulation processes, the amount of Creation Essence earned varies.
This time, John earned multiples more Creation Essence than the last simulation.
This somewhat alleviated the disappointment of not having birthed an intelligent species in John's heart.
[You can choose one species from this simulation to keep.]
[Giant Spirit Jellyfish, Armored Fish, Primordial Snail...]
This time, John had many more species to choose from than in the last simulation.
Not only were there two D-grade quality supernatural creatures, the giant spirit jellyfish and the armored fish, but also the E-grade quality supernatural creature, Primordial Snail. A rich haul.
John looked at the cost of retaining the Primordial Snail in Creation Essence.Approximately 1200 points would be consumed this time.
He directly chose to keep it.
A too monotonous range of creatures would limit the development speed of the Creation World, and John hadn't yet decided on his development path.
He needed to provide more diverse options for his Creation World, giving himself more choices.
Also, John spent over 2000 points of Creation Essence to solidify his world at 40 kilometers.
[Creation World solidified successfully!]
In just the blink of an eye, John's world had expanded several times over.
On the land spanning just over a dozen kilometers, various plants appeared. In the vast sea, species like the giant spirit jellyfish, armored fish, and primordial snail quietly proliferated.
The entire Creation World was thriving.
It was hard to imagine that just a few hours ago, this place was a mere square meter of wasteland.
John could feel his own physique had also improved, multiplying several times over.
The creator and the Creation World are closely linked.
As the Creation World becomes stronger, the creator himself will also gain greater power.
[Please choose the entry to solidify for the next simulation!]
Faced with the prompt, John hesitated...
Normally, he would definitely choose the purple entry "Thinker."
But both "Evolver" and "Born Extraordinary" were very useful.
John looked at his own Creation Essence and finally made up his mind, choosing to solidify "Thinker" and not keeping the other two entries.
John felt that his next simulation may not necessarily fail to encounter higher entries.
He needed to have confidence in himself.
It wasn't because he was reluctant to spend 2000 points of Creation Essence.
