Chapter 81: Countermeasures


    <em>The invincible Creator who transcends space, time, and dimensions</em>


    Xu Zhi was sitting in his yard basking in the sunlight and eating melons. At this moment, he didnt know what to say.


    <em>Im only a First Level Wizard and a hard working farmer in the countryside. Id die from a single gunshot. How can there be such a weak Creator?</em>


    "So Im omnipotent now? Thank you for all the ttery."


    Xu Zhi calmly smiled. "But thanks to the Hive Mind and the Tyranis spores, I can evolve countless new species Im confident that I''ll be a true Creator sooner orter.


    I do not know if I would be able to meet your expectations at that time, but Im far too weak right now. Even when Im just rxing in my yard, those crazy bastards in the sandbox are constantly trying to rebel and give me a hard time. And Im also suffering from cancer"


    He knew better than anybody how weak he truly was. He was merely a young farmer, and not any kind of Creator like those wacky yers expected.


    ording to the Hive Mind, various countries have been roused into action.


    Theyve noticed the amazing potential of this sandbox game and have started to make their moves behind the scenes.


    They all adopted simr measures and established secret research centers to conduct in-depth research on this "Spore Evolution" sandbox game.


    "Is every country studying my little orchard?"


    After Xu Zhi heard this, he was a little uneasy. "Although I knew that Id attract global attention sooner orter by publishing this game online, I didn''t expect it to happen so soon."


    He had always been bold, but now, he was somewhat flustered.


    It was fine if the yers in the small sandbox and the natives in the big sandbox wanted to cause trouble. Xu Zhi was used to it by now, and didnt mind spying on them or matching wits with them all day long But why are even real-world superpowers joining in?


    He hurriedly checked the information that the Hive Mind has given him, and began to spy on them:


    "Let me take a look They all believe that this game is a product of miraculous alien technology.The aliens havee in peace and do not seem to have any evil intentions, and their nation must be the first to seize this risky opportunity. If they could set foot in another world, then they would have taken the first step into the space age!"


    Xu Zhi spied on the secret research centers around the world and found that they all had the same long-term goals:


    "Develop a colony! Cross into outer space! upy the other world! Bring Earth into the space age!"


    Even now, renowned experts were standing before the game screen while excitedly telling the leaders of various countries these kinds of predictions: "The appearance of another world is a great opportunity for us! Earth will enter the space age and colonize the stars! We must not let other countries get the jump on us!"


    Pfft! ! !


    Xu Zhi spit out the fruit he was eating!


    ? ? ? ?


    <em>WTF! ! What''s going on!</em>


    Although they found it hard to believe, ording to all the gathered data, this other world was a real world, and a certain Emperor of Alchemy had easily conquered it


    It was an underdeveloped and backwards world of magic. Theoretically, any modern person who transmigrates would be able to rule over the magic using natives with technology.


    This was a fertilend full of gold thats just waiting to be harvested!


    They all wanted to be the next Emperor of Alchemy and expand their nations territory by colonizing another world!


    Furthermore, each of them had a vague idea of what woulde next: The nation whose representative became the next Emperor of Alchemy would gain control over the other world, and by researching its magic civilization, its high-level mages, and its heavenly gods, it would be the number one nation on Earth!


    "What amazing ambition." Xu Zhi was speechless, "Theyve be greedy after seeing the Emperor of Alchemys scientific aplishments in the other world."


    The space age hase. It''s time for mankind to head out into the endless cosmos and colonize other worlds. Its suddenly turned into that kind of a sci-fi story.


    He was in a daze. He felt that hes received more shock today than the entire past year.


    "They all want to take over the other world and turn it into a colony of their own country but that means that these f*ckers are trying to take over my orchard!


    You want to make my orchard yours?


    You goddamn robbers! Colonialists! Shameless world powers!


    My family orchard is more than a hundred acres and cost me almost three hundred thousand yuans inndmission! Its super expensive! You think you can just take it away? "


    Xu Zhi tried to look innocent before bursting intoughter, "But in another half a year, the contract for thend will end, and itll no longer be my orchard. Ill have to renew the contract, but Ick the money"


    He was indeed quite short of money. Very much so. If he couldnt renew the contract for his orchard, his Spore Evolution sandbox might soon be homeless.


    "If these superpowers know that they went through all thiseach of them spending tens of billions of dors to establish a research institute with the highest priority level in their nationjust to take over a small rural orchard, theyd be quite dumbfounded, right?"


    He sat in the orchard and calmly peeled his apple.


    <em>I should just ignore them and continue farming in peace. Their feelings are none of my business!</em>


    Xu Zhis family was one of the wealthier ones in the vige, and he also used to be a young and promising employee of a foreignpany, but he was now unemployed. His savings were disappearing too quickly, and he had to find a way to make money. Thendmission was a problem.


    It took a while for Xu Zhi to calm down. He took a deep breath and told the Hive Mind:


    "I cant let them do as they please inside my sandbox


    After all, its still part of my familys orchard and something Ive worked hard to develop."


    Initially, Xu Zhi simply wanted to drive these troublemakers away and keep them from disturbing his sandbox world.


    Let them be as dumbfounded as they pleased, it wasnt his problem. They can''t do anything anyway.


    But he changed his mind. "Wait, I should just ignore them, and let them do as they please! Perhaps in the future, after Ive created countless sandbox worlds, I might be able to realize their ambitions


    Earth will enter the space age! And start exploring the multiverse!


    This great moment will be recorded in history!


    Countless Earthlings will weep with joy as they watch their leaders give tearful speeches on the TV: That''s one small step for mankind, one giant leap for Earths civilization


    We are about to enter the space age, and countless other-worldly civilizations beckon"


    Xu Zhi smirked. "But in fact, theyve never left Earth and are actually in my orchard, ving away for me as worker ants It''s an amusing thought."


    Xu Zhi felt that the kind of future that theyve envisioned was too far away.


    This tiny little sandbox was not enough for them. Thatll have to wait until hes actually made a multiverse with multiple sandbox worlds. He might need more manpower to help him evolve new species then.


    At that time, perhaps hell give each of them a sandbox world to rule over, and let them start Interdimensional World Wars with one another. By invading each other through the Passage Between Worlds, entire nations will be able to get rid of their umted grievances in his orchard.


    <em>What an amazing thought!</em>


    <em>Furthermore, wars advance civilization.</em>


    <em>But at the moment, I can''t dream that far ahead and must treat my cancer first. I must finishying down a stable foundation for my alchemical civilization.</em>


    The end goal was already in sight. Xu Zhi turned his attention towards the sandbox before him.
