Chapter 1 Derived Sand Table
"Do you really want to stop thinking about it? If you are not satisfied with the salary, you can still talk about it..."
"I have decided."
"...Well, the company's door is always open to you."
Ten minutes later, Lin Tuo, who was carrying a backpack, walked out of the office building door and stood by the road. He turned his head and looked at the building behind him, feeling a little sad.
Lin Tuo studied advertising design at University. With talent, hard work and luck, he made a name for himself early and successfully joined this well-known company in the industry.
In the past two years, I have taken on several big projects, which have been highly appreciated. Together with some private work, I have saved hundreds of thousands in savings. If I continue to develop, I will have a bright future.
However, today I finally decided to resign.
…
The rented house had been returned and the luggage was checked by someone. Lin Tuo took a taxi and left Yangcheng city.
More than an hour later, he stood at the foot of Lishan Mountain in his hometown.
Lishan is a mountain with little visibility. It is part of the Taihe Mountains and stands on the outskirts of Yangcheng City. Because there are no scenic spots and lack of development, it still maintains a rare simplicity.
It was summer, and the mountain peaks were lush and lush. Every rainy day, there was still mist rising. Lin Tuo grew up here, and studied in elementary school and junior high school in the town at the foot of the mountain. But it seemed that he had not been back for a long time.
Walking along the mountain road, he soon stepped onto Lishan Mountain and saw a single-family building on the mountainside.
Walking in front and back, it has a classical style and occupies a large area. But as I got closer, I realized that it was already a bit dilapidated.
This is Lin Tuo's hometown. He grew up in this house. Because his parents died early, he was raised by his grandfather. His grandfather ran a martial arts gym and recruited disciples to practice martial arts and strengthen his body.
When Lin Tuo was a child, there were still people practicing martial arts here. However, as times changed, the old martial arts schools were gradually ignored, and my grandfather died in depression.
The biggest regret before his death was that the family martial arts school was finally in his own hands, and I had no face to see my ancestors.
Therefore, Lin Tuo secretly made up his mind very early on that when he earned the start-up capital, he would come back and reopen the martial arts gym to fulfill his grandfather's last wish. This was also the reason why he resolutely resigned.
…
"Squeak." He unscrewed the lock, pushed open the door, and walked through the quiet and deserted martial arts field. Lin Tuo looked at the dense weeds between the stones and sighed, "It looks like it needs to be cleaned up."
, it will have to be renovated later.”
Thinking about his future plans, Lin Tuo immediately found a broom and worked hard to clean the house.
"Ahem." When he pushed open a large house in the backyard, he was immediately choked by dust and coughed. He fanned himself and waited until the air was ventilated. Then he walked into the old house and was shocked to find that the roof was completely covered with age.
It was in disrepair and had a big hole.
"No..." Sighing helplessly, Lin Tuo looked away and was surprised to find that the room was empty, except for a huge table. The table was empty and covered with dust. He didn't know what it was for.
"Why don't you remember that there is such a big table at home?" Lin Tuo muttered, reaching out to touch the corner of the table with some sadness.
Immediately, he felt as if his finger had been pricked by something sharp, and as his blood merged with the huge table, suddenly, the dark old house was illuminated.
[Didi - Blood media detected, the evolution sandbox is restarting]
Before Lin Tuo could react, he heard a mysterious message appear in his mind. What surprised him even more was that in his field of vision, the old table that was originally covered in dust actually held up an almost invisible
of photomask.
Shake away the dust and become as clean as new.
Not only that, on the originally empty tabletop, countless lights and shadows intertwined, changed, and danced, forming a miniature modern city in an instant!
Yes, a city that has shrunk countless times appeared on the entire table!
"This is... Yangcheng?" Lin Tuo was stunned at first, and then realized that this city looked very familiar.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was exactly the same as the Yangcheng city where he had worked and lived for several years!
The high-rise buildings, streets, urban areas, as well as the cars and pedestrians passing by in the criss-crossing streets and alleys... it is a lively and prosperous scene.
Lin Tuo even found the building where his company was located at a glance. There were people coming in and out of the door, but it was just too small to see clearly.
[The restart of the Evolution Sandbox is completed, the location is completed, and the "observation mode" is automatically turned on. The observation range is: 15,000 square kilometers]
[Current location ether concentration: low]
…
Mysterious information continued to appear in his mind, and then Lin Tuo was shocked to see a translucent virtual panel appear in his field of vision.
The panel is extremely simple, with the words "observation mode" written in the most eye-catching position.
The bottom shows "Ether Concentration", followed by the word "Low".
Other than that, there doesn't seem to be much else.
"What is this? Black technology? Observation mode? Could it be that... I am observing Yangcheng City in reality? The observation range is fifteen thousand... This is approximately equivalent to the area of Yangcheng City."
Because he had been practicing martial arts since childhood, Lin Tuo quickly calmed down from his shock and analyzed it.
"But... how is this possible? A real city has been shrunk and placed on a table? A sand table... is this what a sand table means?"
"It's unbelievable." Lin Tuo couldn't calm down. He always felt it was unbelievable. After hesitating for a moment, he tried to get closer to this "sand table" and observe carefully.
The entire sand table did cover the urban area and its surroundings, but it was cut flat at the edge. Lin Tuo noticed that a transport vehicle traveling on the national highway went straight along the national highway, left the sand table observation range, and disappeared out of thin air.
There was actually a layer of dark clouds floating over the entire sand table, blocking the view to a certain extent. Lin Tuo thought that it was indeed cloudy today.
At this time, suddenly, an Air China passenger plane appeared out of thin air from the edge of the sand table, flying straight on the clouds, like a model, flying over the city.
"Is it true?" Lin Tuo's breath tightened. He felt that those dark clouds were a bit annoying, so he subconsciously bent over and approached the city from above, trying to see the details clearly.
…
…
at the same time.
In Yangcheng City, not far from the mountain, it was noon at the moment. Employees in office buildings crowded into the elevators to go downstairs, preparing to go out for dinner. On the street, couriers delivering food on bicycles were also swarming.
Under Lin Tuo's original company building, the manager who approved his resignation request had just walked out of the first floor when he felt the light in the city suddenly change, and the originally gloomy sky became brighter.
Immediately, more exclamations were heard.
"Look to the sky!"
"Holy shit, what is that?!"
"Did I read that correctly? Why...how...a face appeared in the sky?!"
"Quick photo! Where is my phone?"
On the street, countless people raised their heads and looked up at the sky above the city following the changing light.
The manager was stunned for a moment, then raised his head as well, his eyes suddenly widened, and he even subconsciously opened his mouth, showing his inner uneasiness.
I saw that over the city, the pile of dark clouds suddenly rolled up, as if disturbed by some mysterious force, and then, a vague human face was gradually "imprinted" in the clouds!
Chapter completed!
