"What news?" Fang Yuan was puzzled.
"You really haven't seen it. That big rooster must be yours, right? It's gone viral; it's running all over the world, having fun with a bunch of chickens. It's said that even foreign mercenaries want to come hunt it down," Wang Lili said.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Fang Yuan exclaimed.
"Tell me honestly, how did you raise such a big rooster?" Wang Lili asked curiously.
"I said it's a genetic mutation, do you believe that?"
"You even hid it from me..." Wang Lili pretended to be displeased, but with that look on her face, Fang Yuan couldn't help but be tempted again and ended up with her.
Afterward, although it was late, Wang Lili insisted on going home, saying she needed to look after the farm.
Fang Yuan had no choice but to drive Wang Lili home and then come back to pour all the earthworms into the Steel Bead World, making the remaining five chickens instantly happy.
This time, Fang Yuan didn't rush to kill all the earthworms, letting them live or die on their own.
In addition, Fang Yuan also wanted to see if the earthworms could reproduce in the Steel Bead World, which had water and soil anyway.
The next day, Fang Yuan went to the market again and bought many flower seeds to sprinkle all over the Steel Bead World.
However, in the evening, Fang Yuan was shocked to find that ninety percent of the earthworms had died, apparently stung to death by bees.
During this time, the number of bees had multiplied to seventy to eighty thousand, filling the entire Steel Bead World. Looking down from the sky, it was densely packed with bees everywhere.
Because the flower seeds had just been sprinkled and hadn't grown enough pollen, the bees treated the earthworms as food and pollen.
Even the five chickens were affected; occasionally, when they flapped their wings, bees would fall out of their feathers.
However, the death of ninety percent of the earthworms provided Fang Yuan with more than 1,700 drops of origin in one go.
"It seems necessary to expand the world. More than 1,700 drops of origin should be enough."
That night, Fang Yuan left the county town again by car, but after opening the world channel, the devouring force did not appear.
Fang Yuan couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that the origin is still not enough? Does it need to accumulate enough for a single expansion?"
Fang Yuan wasn't sure about this because he had no experience.
However, he immediately thought, "When the Steel Bead World expanded from one cubic meter to one hundred cubic meters in an instant, it increased by a hundred times."
"Could the amount of origin needed for this expansion also increase a hundredfold? That would be eighteen hundred drops?"
Now with more than 1,700 drops, it wasn't far from eighteen hundred.
And Fang Yuan thought again, "The last time it expanded a hundredfold, the current Steel Bead World has a radius of one hundred meters, which is a sphere with a diameter of one hundred meters."
If it were to expand a hundredfold directly, it would be a radius of ten thousand meters.
A radius of ten thousand meters would already be considerable. If it followed the same pattern, the time acceleration would also increase tenfold; one day outside would be a hundred days in the Steel Bead World, which was simply astonishing.
"Perhaps my goal shouldn't be to calculate the formation of origin drops every day; I need to make some changes."
"Having such a world, if I don't do something interesting, it would be a waste."
Fang Yuan thought that if time acceleration could really increase, one day outside would be a hundred days in the Steel Bead World, then he would truly be like a god, able to watch the evolution of life in the Steel Bead World.
"Maybe I could bring some people in," Fang Yuan thought.
But he didn't dare to bring innocent people in casually because once they were in, they couldn't be let out, or else his secret might be exposed.
Fang Yuan felt that with the current Steel Bead World, people should be able to survive inside as long as there were enough resources.
But he himself didn't dare to go in casually; he had to let others try first.
"Maybe I could bring in some confirmed death row inmates, but unfortunately, I can't get in touch with them."
Fang Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
On the third day, Fang Yuan checked the Steel Bead World again and found that the number of bees had exceeded one hundred thousand. By now, although the second batch of wildflowers had grown, they had very few flowers.
This caused a shortage of resources, and soon, the four bee queens began to fight among themselves, controlling a large number of bees in a war where many bees died like dumplings.
The number of dead bees increased, providing Fang Yuan with a lot of origin.
Finally, by the fourth day, the origin of the world exceeded eighteen hundred drops, reaching more than eighteen hundred and thirty drops.
By this time, there were only tens of thousands of logistics bees left, with all four queens still alive, but many ordinary bees had died, leaving thick layers of bee corpses on the ground.
That night, Fang Yuan left the county town again by car and found a deserted mountain range where there were no human traces for dozens of kilometers.
"It should be possible to expand the world this time."
Fang Yuan thought so, took out the steel bead, and opened the world channel.
"Boom..."
Suddenly, Fang Yuan felt a deafening explosion, clutching his head and screaming in agony. The expansion of the Steel Bead World directly affected his consciousness.
During the expansion of the Steel Bead World, it seemed to pull his consciousness along with it.
But just as Fang Yuan's consciousness was about to be torn apart, the origin of the world took the initiative to feed back some, easing Fang Yuan's pain.
Finally, when Fang Yuan regained his senses, he found that his consciousness could actually detach from his body, perceiving everything within a radius of ten meters around him.
Every speck of dust could be sensed by him, projected into his mind like a projector.
Before Fang Yuan could even marvel at the strengthening of his consciousness, he was stunned by the scene before him.
The small mountain range in front had disappeared by a large extent, and a long stretch of asphalt road in the distance had disappeared out of thin air.
It looked as if a monster had taken a bite out of it.
"I've caused trouble..."
Fang Yuan was greatly alarmed and hurriedly drove away.
Not long after Fang Yuan left, the disappearing mountains were discovered by people, and soon, the news spread wildly on the Internet.
"Is this theft of land? How did the road disappear?"
"Who is so crazy..."
The internet was buzzing with noise.
Soon, the authorities came out to explain that it was a mountain collapse.
However, everyone rolled their eyes; this collapse was too mysterious. Did those disappeared earth and rocks sink into it?
But all of this had nothing to do with Fang Yuan anymore; he had already returned home. He had not gone anywhere with surveillance cameras, so hopefully, no one would come looking for him.
At this time, indeed, the Steel Bead World had expanded to a radius of ten thousand meters.
The earth and rocks taken in this time were all actively transformed by the origin of the world, integrating with the original small island to form a small land with a radius of ten thousand meters.
The most amazing thing was that the origin of the world actively separated the soil and stones. All the small stones were fused into layers, forming large stones scattered randomly in all directions.
The soil was the same; most of the soil was on top, covering most of the stones.
Now, at a glance, due to some small mounds blocking the view, it was a bit endless.
However, because the sun created initially was too small, only palm-sized, the light and heat reaching the ground were too little.
So Fang Yuan separately consumed ten drops of origin each, enlarging the sun and moon to one meter in size.
