Chapter 124: Affection, Life, Soul, and Faith
In the third test, Zhou Ming won one game, and in the following months, Zhou Ming did three more batches of transformation tests.
The test is that in the face of faith in the god of light, which are more important to the three things of family, life, and soul?
To be honest, the process of these three batches of tests can be said to be very serious and heavy.
It can even be described as "cruel".
Because the choice given by Zhou Ming is to choose one of the two, insist on one thing and another, and you must give up.
For example, family affection, people who live in the world must have parents, wives, children, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends...... It can't be a completely isolated person.
For a normal person, no matter what his identity is, he must have relatives (or lovers).
Now, in the process of conducting the test, Zhou Ming asked all the test subjects, either to choose his relatives or to adhere to his belief in God, and only one could be chosen.
If he chooses family affection, then he will have to give up his faith and become a traitor.
If he persists in his faith in God, then he will lose his loved ones.
In this group of experiments, the 500 testers screened by Zhou Ming are all good sons of parents, good husbands of wives, and good fathers of children...... They are all people who care about their families and attach great importance to family affection.
Zhou Ming ordered all the family members of these 500 people to be arrested, put under the butcher's knife, and forced them to make a choice.
More than 3,000 people were arrested!
So, what are the results?
Did Zhou Ming pull back another game?
After all, compared with the distant and untouchable God, family is the source of happiness, and family is the closest and most important person.
But......
In this game, Zhou Ming lost.
The defeat was very miserable.
The conversion rate is even less than 15%.
More than 2,500 people fell to the ground, and blood flowed on the execution table.
But there is still no way to shake the firm faith of the 85% of the people.
Even in the process of communicating with their families, they said a lot of creepy words.
"My family, death is not terrible, as long as you have a strong faith in God, you can ascend to heaven!"
"Heaven has endless bread, rivers of cream, mountains of treasure and countless beauties, go to heaven, go there and be blessed!"
"Don't be afraid, my love, please don't be afraid, death is only a fleeting moment of pain, but the happiness of heaven can last forever. ”
"Wait for me in heaven first, and I will meet you. ”
"Don't cry, be brave! God loves brave children. ”
"I ...... I'll still choose my family!" only a few test subjects, unable to bear it, chose their own family.
Overall, in the fourth game of the test, Zhou Ming lost.
At the same time, I saw the horror of faith and the great power of faith.
For the devout, after having faith, death is just a way to heaven, and there is no need to be afraid at all.
As for relatives and lovers, they are indeed worthy of cherishing and protecting, but in the face of heaven, even if yin and yang are separated, they are only temporarily separated...... Sooner or later, one day you will meet them in heaven.
All, that very bloody and cruel scene, could not set off too much waves in their hearts.
In the same way, if they are so indifferent to the lives of their loved ones, what about their own lives?
What will they think?
Therefore, in the fifth group of experiments, Zhou Ming no longer took the lives of innocent people, but took the lives of the testers.
If you only have 30 more days to live, will you continue to hold on to your faith in God until you die?
The reason why the test period is as long as 30 days is that Zhou Ming wants to experience the beauty of life for those who have the attributes of "timidity" and "cowardice" during these 30 days, and then let them seriously answer the question: Is their own life important, or is their belief in God important?
A month later.
Zhou Ming was still not satisfied with the test results of the fifth game.
The conversion rate is only 45%...... Not even half.
In this game, Zhou Ming can be regarded as losing.
The 275 test subjects, who were timid and cowardly by nature, managed to overcome their fear of death, persevered in their faith, and finally ran to their kingdom of God in the midst of a chant.
These people also left a lot of famous quotes.
"Although I am afraid of death, I am even more afraid that after death, my soul will not be able to guide me and will drift around. ”
"I will not forsake God, for God has never forsaken me. ”
"I am more afraid that I will not be guided by God than I will be alive, and that my soul will have nowhere to stay. ”
"God says that souls without faith will go to hell and will not be born forever, and I don't want to go to hell. ”
"I ...... I'm still young and I don't want to die that early. ”
"I've never been to heaven, I've never seen heaven, I've only heard people say it's good, but it's always hard to know if it exists? ”
Only some people are suspicious of the so-called paradise and want to spend some more time on the real earth...... But this part of the population belongs to a relatively small minority.
The testers, who made up the majority, became martyrs and gave up their lives in order to stand up for their beliefs.
In this way, among the five rounds of tests that have been conducted, Zhou Ming only won one game in the "beauty" category.
In the other four games, there was almost no advantage in one game.
The score was 4:1.
At this point in the experiment, it seems that there is no need to go any further, after all, the conversion rate is too low, and Zhou Ming has spent countless resources and costs, so he can only make a small number of people give up their faith and become "traitors" who are spurned by everyone and want to be killed by countless people...... Transforming them is actually not very meaningful.
Zhou Ming didn't have that condition, and took out countless foods, money, and benefits to transform every believer who believed in the God of Light...... He is not a god of power.
But......
He wasn't completely desperate.
Especially after the start of the sixth experiment, through a major discovery that can be called earth-shattering, Zhou Ming saw the hope of victory in the Jedi counterattack and reverse the unfavorable situation.
What is the major discovery that has such a miraculous effect?
The destination of the soul.
Regarding the believers who believe in the God of Light, where their souls end up, Zhou Ming found this answer through some scientific methods.
So, when believers die, where do the souls of the gods of light go?
Isn't it paradise?
After all, the so-called "heaven" is the main spiritual pillar of all devout believers, and the reason why they are so religious is because the God of Light assures them that as long as the believers maintain their faith in piety, after they die, God will definitely lead them into the kingdom of God, immortal life, and endless glory and wealth.
If Heaven is not described in the Holy See's canon, how can believers believe in it so devoutly?
If there is no better paradise to go to, who will not be afraid of life and death, not greedy for treasures and beauties, not cherishing family and lovers, and willing to be busy and suffering in this world?
Through many experiments, Zhou Ming found that the so-called "paradise" may not exist.
Or not as good as described in the Divine Codex, there are a large number of bugs.
Among them, Zhou Ming found several major bugs, which seriously questioned the so-called "heaven".
Even this "paradise", which may not exist at all, is an outright lie!
Now, regarding "Heaven", Zhou Ming has gradually uncovered some subversive and shocking truths through the experiments of the sixth group.
