Chapter 697: Substitute for the Dead Ghost
Feist also looked at Chu Tianjiang and fell silent.
"What, am I wrong?"
"You're really smart, that's why Holmes wants to woo you, and even I think you're qualified enough to be the patriarch of the church."
"And then get rid of Umma?"
"You're wrong, it's not my fault at all, and it's not Uma's." Feist looked a little excited. "Over the last 500 years or so, I've given Holmes enough power and enough time to him. Although he remained faithful to me until his death, he wasted more than 500 years. If he could have taken a long-term view instead of focusing on how to strengthen his position and fight for his own interests, he would have done better, and he would not have let me down, let alone lose everything. β
"Because he has no use value, so you abandoned him?"
"This is the most basic principle, and no one can change it. Anyone, life is valuable. β
"What about the other patriarchs?"
"Other?" Feist laughed and said, "They're nothing more than a scrap made by Holmes, and they don't deserve a place in my scheme." Anyone can concoct a patriarch like that. What's more, they have been eliminated by the times. β
"It's not the times that kill them, it's Uma, or rather, your orders."
"Why, you're starting to sympathize with them?"
"I don't sympathize with them, even if Uma didn't kill them, as long as they stood in my way, I would kill them with my own hands." Chu Tianjiang paused slightly, and then said, "It's just that the way you treat them makes me feel that you are not a worthy follower at all. β
"You ......"
"Of course, there's no point in arguing about this at all, right?"
Feist controlled his emotions and said, "You're right, the Adventist does store all the information, including the most advanced science and technology, in the genes. In fact, it's the best, or at least the safest, way to preserve important information. β
"Safe?"
"If the Adventist hadn't left Earth and established their own civilization here, I wouldn't have been able to pose a threat to it even if I had escaped from subspace. In fact, the Adventist didn't even expect me to leave Subspace, and didn't take any precautions. β
"And then?"
"The discovery on the northern continent has given me a comprehensive understanding of the Adventists, many of which I have already told you before."
"So you've decided to form this legion to challenge, or even replace, to become the new Juggernaut?"
"Do you think that's the right thing to do?"
"This ......"
"The Advent imprisoned me in subspace, and the fear of me is enough to prove that I am stronger than the Arrival, and it is the genes from humans that give me strength over the Arrival. What's more, I can arm a super army in the same way. The problem is that this power is only relative to the Adventists. In front of the Creator, neither I nor the Advent are worth mentioning. As long as the creator is willing, he can destroy the intelligent civilization in the microverse in the simplest way, such as causing the sun to collapse into a white dwarf, or making the star of the galaxy where the Adventist is located a black hole. In the face of the blow launched by the creator, we didn't even have a chance to fight back. β
"In this way, to replace the Adventist is nothing more than to kill yourself."
"It can be said that even if you don't die, when the creator arrives, you will become a puppet without consciousness and personality and freedom."
"And what are you going to do?"
"What the creator needs is the carrier of wisdom, and a large number of intelligent populations is nothing more than selecting the best one among the intelligent populations of each micro-universe. At least as far as we know, either humans or Adventists, and at the moment it seems that the Adventists are the most likely to be chosen. While I don't identify myself as a member of the human race, I'm not a member of the Advent, so I have no reason to replace the Adventists. β
"You think you created a population?"
"What, do you think there's a problem?"
"Don't forget, you were created too."
"Ha Lu Ha ......," Fester laughed, "Obviously, your idea is naΓ―ve. Even the Adventists were created, and you are no exception, and no one is exempt. Yes, I was created, but that doesn't limit my actions. Just as you have always wanted to get back to your lost loved ones, I have my own purpose. If there is a need, create a population for what not to do. β
"You ......"
"Also, why do you want to be a substitute for the dead?" Feist pointed at Chu Tianjiang and said, "My purpose is very simple, let the Adventist take care of everything, so that we can get more room for development. Although I am not human, half of my genes come from humans, and they come from the last pure human civilization. More importantly, I created this new population on the basis of humans. You should have a sense of belonging and identity, because this is the inevitable result of the development of human civilization, and it is also a step that human civilization must take. If human civilization is still complacent, if human civilization still pins its hopes on the creator who has never reached out to help, human civilization will never be able to achieve greater development, let alone control its own destiny. β
Chu Tianjiang looked at Feister, not knowing what to say.
In a sense, Feist is right. The creator sent Chu Tianjiang back, not to help the human race, but to use the human race.
The question is, is what Feist is doing right?
More importantly, is the race Fester talking about still human?
"What the hell do you want to do?" Chu Tianjiang asked.
"It's very simple, go to the micro-universe of the Adventists, and use destruction to force the Adventists to become stronger, so that the Adventists accept the ultimate fate."
"Fate?"
"More than 8,000 years have passed, and the Adventist has never returned, don't you think there's a problem?"
Chu Tianjiang's brows jumped a few times, this was indeed a problem.
"Clearly, the Adventist has realized that being too powerful can only lead to death, and has made a choice, and the wisest of all. It is a pity that we do not know when the Creator of the Creator will come, and it may not be possible to predict it at all, because in the world of the Creator, the concept of time is very different from ours, maybe the next moment, maybe a long time later, and sooner or later human civilization will develop and grow. Obviously, this is also the result that the Adventist waits, a result for human civilization to bear everything. β
"Not necessarily."
"Obviously, you still have a glimmer of illusions."
Chu Tianjiang looked at Feist, waiting for him to continue.
"The point is, there is a difference between humans and Adventists."
"The difference?"
"On the United Continent, the Doomsday Empire has recognized the limitations of resources on the number of individuals, so it has introduced a strict birth restriction policy, and through eugenics policies, it has ensured as much as possible that each offspring has good enough genes to become almost perfect people. The problem is that even in this case, the population of the Doomsday Empire still reaches 20 billion, and the resources of the entire earth can sustain the normal needs of 200 billion people for at least the next 10 million years. If we look at the entire solar system, counting those planets and moons that can be developed, the number of human individuals may exceed one trillion, and the infinite pursuit of fertility makes it impossible for any ruler to fundamentally control the number of individuals, which will lead to a sharp expansion of the scale of human civilization. β
"This ......"
"If there is enough developed science and technology, how much time do you think it will take for the population to grow to one trillion?"
Chu Tianjiang was stunned, he had never considered this problem.
"It's only five hundred years."
"So short?"
"This is still an estimate based on resource constraints, and if technology is advanced enough to solve the resource problem, it may only take 300 years. Obviously, three hundred years is an extremely short period of time, both by the standards of the Adventist and the Creator. As a result, it is clear that human beings have the basic conditions to become carriers of the wisdom of creators, and the sheer number of them allows creators to make choices easily. β
"Don't they have so many individuals?"
"What do you think?"
Chu Tianjiang looked at Feister, he didn't guess.
"At the time of coming to the solar system, the number of individuals who came to the Advent was less than 10 billion."
"What?"
"Surprised?" Feist smiled and said, "Actually, this is the difference between humans and Adventists, not physiologically, but cognitively. Due to cognitive limitations, individual humans have a much lower need for the resources needed to survive than those who come to them. To put it bluntly, all people yearn for a stable and comfortable life, human beings have lost their pioneering spirit, and they don't care about the outside world, and the resources needed by each individual are extremely limited. In contrast, the Adventists have been exploring, always inquiring into other worlds, and each individual has possessed and consumed far more resources than humans, so the number of individuals of the Adventists has always remained at a low level. Obviously, there must be a strong external threat that makes the Adventists feel the possibility of extinction in order to force the Adventists to expand their populations, and for the Adventists to be the object of choice, so that the other command populations can be given a chance. β
Chu Tianjiang was silent, if Feist was not wrong, then the fate of mankind was already doomed.
"Now, do you think what I'm doing is crazy?"
"Even if you're right, I can't agree with you."
"For what?" Feist was visibly impatient.
"Because these things you do also have the potential to lead to the extinction of human civilization." Chu Tianjiang paused slightly, "The 200 million residents of Doomsday City, what did you do to them?" β
