Chapter 153: Supporting God
After a brief silence, the UN Secretary-General asked the most critical question.
"So, can you tell us now the purpose of God's civilization coming to earth?"
[God] sighed: "We are homeless."
"But -" the Secretary-General pointed to the sky, "Don't you still have so many spaceships?"
[God] shook his head and explained: "Those are old spaceships. Although, the ecosystem on the spacecraft is stronger and more stable than any naturally formed ecosystem, including the earth."
But the spaceships are too old, too old for you to imagine.
"Quantum effects accumulated over a long period of time produce more and more software errors, causing the system's self-maintenance and repair functions to encounter more and more obstacles."
"The ecological environment in the spaceship is gradually deteriorating, and the rations of daily necessities available to everyone are decreasing day by day. Now it is only enough to barely survive. The more than 20,000 cities in the spacecraft are filled with filthy air and despair."
"Is there no remedy? For example, updating the spacecraft's hardware and software?" the secretary-general tried to find other solutions.
[God] shook his head: "God's civilization has reached its twilight years, and our civilization now only has two billion or three thousand old people left."
"In fact, hundreds of generations before us have lived in the comfort of the cradle of machines."
"Over such a long period of time, the technology has long been forgotten. Now, we will not repair the spacecraft that has been operating for tens of millions of years."
"We are even inferior to you in terms of technology and learning ability. Now we can't even connect a circuit to light a lamp, and we can't even solve a quadratic equation..."
"Finally one day, the spacecraft's intelligent system said that they were on the verge of being scrapped, and the navigation power system was no longer capable of propelling the spacecraft to close to the speed of light."
"[God's civilization] can only travel at a low speed that is less than one-tenth of the speed of light. The ecological cycle system on the spacecraft is close to collapse. They can no longer feed two billion people. Please find our own way out."
"Didn't you think that this day would happen before?" the Secretary-General asked.
"Of course I have thought about it. Two thousand years ago, the spacecraft began to warn us, so we took measures to sow life on the earth to prepare for retirement."
"You mean, two thousand years ago?"
[God] nodded: "Yes, of course, that was our voyage time. Judging from your time coordinates, it was 3.5 billion years ago, when the earth had just cooled down.
The Secretary-General asked curiously: "Here's a question: You have lost your technical capabilities, but don't you need technology to sow life?"
"Oh, starting the life process on a planet is actually just a small project. Sow the seeds and life will multiply on its own." [God] explained seriously.
"This kind of software existed before the cradle era of machines. As long as you run the software, the machine can do everything."
"The most basic requirement to create a planet-scale life world and then generate civilization is time, a long time of billions of years."
"Sailing close to the speed of light allows us to have almost unlimited time in another world. However, it is a pity that the spacecraft engine of God's civilization has aged and can no longer approach the speed of light."
"Otherwise, we can create more life and a civilized world, and then we will have more choices, but now we are locked in a low speed and these cannot be achieved.
At this moment, the Secretary-General finally realized the reason why these [gods] came to earth.
"So, you want to come to the earth to nourish yourself."
"Yes, I hope you will fulfill your responsibility to your creators and take us in.
God leaned on crutches and bowed tremblingly to the heads of state, almost falling forward.
"So, how do you plan to live on earth?" the Secretary-General asked a key question.
"If we still live together on earth, it would be better to end our lives in space. So. We want to integrate into your society and enter your families."
[God] said with hope.
"In the childhood days of God's civilization, we also had families. You know, childhood is the most cherished. If we can go back to this era and spend the rest of our lives in the warmth of our families, that would be the greatest happiness."
"But there are two billion of you. If all of you entered the earth's society, then every family on the earth would have to take in one or two of you." After the secretary-general finished speaking, the venue fell into a long silence.
**0..........
"Yeah, yeah, I'm causing trouble for you..." God bowed repeatedly, while secretly glancing at the expressions of the Secretary-General and heads of state.
"Of course, we will give you some compensation."
He waved his cane, and two more white-bearded gods walked into the venue, struggling to carry a silver metal box.
"Look, this is a large amount of high-density information storage, which systematically stores all the data of God's civilization in various disciplines and technical fields. It will make the earth's civilization undergo a rapid evolution. I believe you will like it."
The Secretary-General looked at the metal box and, like the heads of state present, tried his best to conceal the ecstasy in his heart, he said seriously.
"It is the responsibility of mankind to support God. Although this requires further consultations among countries around the world, from a moral perspective, we humans will never ignore our Creator!
"I've caused trouble for you, I've caused trouble for you..." God burst into tears and bowed repeatedly.
The audience outside the video showed speechless expressions.
"Ah, if [God] had not proposed technology to humans just now, the secretary-general would have definitely refused it directly, right?"
"It's human nature, it's human nature!"
"There is a saying that the sudden increase of two billion people will definitely be a huge burden on the entire human society. Without technical support, I am afraid that no leader will be willing to accept such a proposal!"
"Yes, you have to know that this is not a labor force of two billion, but an old man who has completely lost his labor force, and their knowledge level has now even degraded to a level that is worse than that of junior high school students. To put it bluntly, this has already It’s a pure burden!"
At this moment, some people soon realized the reason for the quarrel at the Qiusheng family at the beginning of the video!
"But I guess these technologies are not as easy to digest as humans think, otherwise ordinary people wouldn't complain about [God]!"
"Indeed, behind every technological leap lies the knowledge of countless disciplines and the development of supporting industrial facilities. Technology cannot grow simply by encouraging it.
However, the humans in the video had already been overwhelmed by this huge unexpected joy, and no one was aware of this hidden crisis!
