In 2022, the earth's population will exceed 8 billion, and India will surpass China to become the most populous country.

In 2051, the earth's population will exceed 10 billion, and hunger will become the primary problem facing mankind.

The migration of refugees triggered by hunger has gradually become a common problem faced by many countries, and then has a series of chain reactions in terms of public security and employment, and wars began to appear in some parts of the earth, and after several years of turmoil, the earth has gradually returned to calm, and human beings have begun to reflect at the same time, and found that a more serious problem is in front of them, that is, the energy crisis.

What is the energy crisis? Although human beings have predicted the future energy crisis as early as the beginning of the 20th century, and began to develop and utilize alternative energy such as solar energy, wind energy, and nuclear energy, but modern economy and life will still inevitably use a large number of fossil energy such as oil, even if electric vehicles have begun to become the mainstream means of transportation, but aviation, navigation and other long-distance transportation still consume fuel. Some heavy machinery is also inseparable from fuel, so after the last drop of oil in the Middle East has been exhausted, the panic caused by the energy crisis has begun to occupy the hearts of world leaders, and the search for alternative energy sources has become a top priority, and helium-3 resources on the moon have once again become the focus of attention.

In July 2069, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the first human landing on the moon, the United States officially announced that its Jinghai base on the moon had been officially opened and that it had implemented automated mining operations. In the released TV footage, the gray-white surface of the moon can be seen full of rubble and craters, several low round cans and several rows of loaf-shaped buildings gathered together as if it is the United States Jinghai base on the moon, the word USA can be seen everywhere on the outer wall of the base building, a stiff American flag passing through the picture, in an open-air warehouse, several mechanical arms are assembling and welding around a giant tracked vehicle, a few minutes later, The robotic arm stopped working and reset, and the giant tracked vehicle was the Armstrong, an American fully automated mining vehicle on the moon, which was activated under the watchful eyes of television viewers around the world, and at the same time, the recording of American astronaut Armstrong landing on the moon a hundred years ago was transmitted on the screen: "This is a small step for me personally, but it is a big leap for all mankind", and the whole earth is boiling.

Armstrong is mainly driven by nuclear and solar power, and its biggest feature is that it can automatically collect the lunar soil in front of it during the journey, and complete the heat treatment of the lunar soil through its own nuclear reactor to form a high temperature, automatically collect the helium 3 (HE3) and helium 4 (HE4) mixture released from the lunar soil after high temperature heat treatment, and then compress the mixture into the centrifuge for multiple separation, so as to complete the gasification collection and purification of helium 3. The purified helium-3 is stored in several sealed helium tanks at the tail of the miner.

A month later, the first batch of lunar helium tanks purified and sealed by the Jinghai base factory were transported back to Earth, combined with the previous nearly a century of research and accumulation of lunar helium 3, the United States soon announced the successful use of lunar helium 3 to achieve pollution-free and controllable nuclear fusion, will build several nuclear fusion power stations in the United States, and will completely abandon fuel vehicles, fully use electric vehicles, for aviation and navigation and other long-distance transportation equipment, the follow-up will be replaced by the latest development of nuclear fusion engines.

In the face of the big move of the United States, of course, several big countries that also have the ability to land on the moon cannot be taken lightly, and the fighting nation Russia soon launched its own lunar spacecraft in September, followed by Huaxia State also successfully launched its own Guanghan 5 spacecraft in October, restarting the construction of the lunar base that had been shelved for several years.

At the end of 2069, the three space powers of the United States, Russia, and China have successively declared their own mining sovereignty on the moon, although Russia and China have not mastered the technology of automatically collecting lunar soil and purifying helium-3 like the United States, but they are also using their own existing technologies to slowly mine and purify.

India, as the most populous country, of course, cannot afford to lose, so it also urgently launched the moon landing program in early 2070, but it set off a big firework in front of billions of TV viewers around the world, and the launch failed.

Japan has been living in dire straits for many years, its land area is small, although the population growth rate continues to slow down, but the food and energy crisis is getting worse day by day, in the face of the fertile moon, Japan is of course unwilling to give up this opportunity, just after India set off a big fireworks, Japan also launched its own lunar spacecraft to the moon, and successfully landed.

First of all, the United Kingdom, which has been separated from the European Union for more than 50 years, announced its return to the European Union and was quickly approved by the European Union, and then the European Union announced that it would implement the lunar landing program led by Britain, France and Germany, and planned to launch a lunar spacecraft on Christmas Day in 2070.

At this time, India was also anxious, and immediately launched a second lunar launch plan, but its launch date was earlier than the planned time of the European Union, for fear that it would be left behind again.

In the face of India's eagerness for quick success, the international community has expressed its own worries, fearing that India will release a bigger firework, while many countries in Africa, South America, Oceania, and other countries have gradually recognized the current situation and have lodged protests to the United Nations, solemnly protesting against the United States, Russia, China, and Japan taking the lead in occupying the moon's mineral resources, and demanding that the United Nations interfere in and prohibit other lunar landing programs in the future.

Although the United States, Russia, Huaxia and Japan, which are building bases while mining, do not want more and more countries or enterprises to continue to land on the moon for mining, although the helium 3 detected on the moon can be purified at least 1 million tons, according to the annual demand of 100 tons, it is enough for human beings to squander about 10,000 years, but this cake is only so big, and the more people who share it, the less they will eat, and the future will also disturb the price of lunar minerals, and will not be able to obtain the maximum benefits.

As a result, the "Convention on the Protection and Development of the Moon" jointly drafted by the four countries that landed on the moon appeared on the table of the United Nations Secretary-General, and before the content of the convention was put forward for discussion, the European Union and India took the lead in raising a strong protest, why can the four countries go to the moon for mining, we can't! Why do they have rules to restrict us? Why?!

Other countries do not agree with the convention drafted by the four countries on the moon, when the scarce resources are in the hands of a few countries, it is foreseeable that monopoly and profiteering, under the double pressure of the food crisis and energy crisis, no one wants to become a lamb to the slaughter, and buy the lunar helium 3 that can replace fuel at a high price, and from a strategic point of view, perhaps at a high price may not be able to buy enough helium 3 for their own use, not to mention that helium 3 is not only a scarce resource on the moon. There are still a large number of rare metal minerals on the moon that can be mined, and those minerals have been idle for an unknown number of billions of years, and now they can only watch the four countries on the moon to mine, which is unacceptable.

Comments on the development of helium 3 on the moon have long occupied the position of news headlines, and a commentator's article in the Washington Post "It is the responsibility and obligation of the United States to protect the moon" has attracted a lot of attention, including a lot of white eyes; Russia's Moscow Pravda called on more young people to join the reserve team of the lunar expedition with "The Moonlight Calls Me to Fight", and has begun to prepare for stationing personnel on the moon, after all, Russia has lagged far behind the United States and China in the field of intelligence such as robots, so it has to send people to the field through the most simple and crude means; Japan's Tokyo Times published an article titled "Opportunities for Establishing an Earth-Moon Economic Co-Prosperity Sphere", which received enthusiastic responses from Japanese youth, but also received criticism and strong protests from Asian countries. The People's Daily of Huaxia shocked everyone with an editorial entitled "Since Ancient Times, the Cold and the Hidden Jiao'e, Shelving Disputes and Jointly Developing," and the Western countries were even more booed. After seeing Hua Huaguo's editorial, South Korea quickly fought back and published an article titled "The Moon Was Separated from South Korean Territory Hundreds of Millions of Years Ago", which attracted a wave of scolding from netizens around the world......

With the continuous fermentation of public opinion, a large number of demonstrators often gather in front of the embassies of the four countries that landed on the moon, holding placards such as "Get out of the moon", "The moon belongs to all mankind", "Dirty helium" and so on. In front of the United Nations headquarters building in New York, protest groups from various countries gathered in front of the United Nations headquarters building, also holding various protest placards and shouting protest slogans neatly: "GETOUTOFMOON, GETOUTOFMOON, GETOUTOFMOON......

In the face of global protests, India and the European Union had to postpone the launch of the lunar spacecraft, and even the four lunar landing countries have slowed down the actual mining progress of the moon, and the lunar helium tanks that have been mined and purified are temporarily stored in the warehouses of their bases on the moon.

On the occasion of the New Year of 2071, the United Nations promulgated the Convention on the Protection and Development of the Moon, which was voted and adopted by all member states, which clearly stipulates:

1. The Moon belongs to all mankind, and the mineable resources on the Moon also belong to all mankind;

2. No country, organization, enterprise or individual may land on the moon without permission to carry out mining activities unrelated to scientific exploration;

3. Lunar helium-3 and other resources urgently needed by the earth should be exploited and sold in an open, fair and just manner on the basis of the authorization of the United Nations.

But how can we ensure that the fairness, openness and impartiality referred to in article 3 are truly realized? After a year-long discussion and refinement of Article 3 of the Convention, after a year of continuous quarrels and heated debates among all member states, everyone believed that the existing resources of the earth could no longer afford the consumption of war, and only peaceful settlement of disputes was expected, so the solution that was unanimously voted by everyone was a virtual reality online game called "Moon Wars: MOONWARS".

When the New Year of 2072 arrives, the world's attention to the "Lunar Declaration" was adopted by the United Nations resolution, as the "Lunar Protection and Development Convention" Article 3 of the detailed provisions, the "Lunar Declaration" clearly gives a way to resolve the dispute over lunar resources, the acquisition and distribution of lunar mineral resources will be "Lunar Wars: MOONWARS" as a medium, in the form of virtual reality games to achieve the mining, sale and even plundering of real lunar mineral resources. Although the game was still just an idea at this time, it still attracted everyone's attention, all member states were urgently discussing countermeasures, all online game enthusiasts began to rush to the news, and some companies that had nothing to do with the virtual game industry were trying to find future business opportunities in it......

In the next three years, the United Nations led the establishment of a global enterprise called MOONLIGHT, which was jointly funded by various member states, integrating the most advanced artificial intelligence technology on the earth at that time, building a set of self-learning brain system, and using the most advanced virtual reality technology at that time, bringing together the elites of many online game companies to form a huge development team, combining the geography of the earth's continents, historical allusions, heroic legends, Myths and other elements have created game content, and these complex contents can be integrated together in just three years, whether it is put into online games or human history, it can be called a miracle, as for how these massive content of many elements are interspersed together to form an online game with a complete plot, it is mainly completed through the game brain, and the development team checks and regulates at the key nodes of the main plot.

ON JANUARY 1, 2075, MOONLIGHT ANNOUNCED THAT MOON WARS: MOONWARS HAS COMPLETED DEVELOPMENT AND INTERNAL DEBUGGING, AND IS ABOUT TO ENTER A ONE-YEAR PUBLIC BETA, WITH 500,000 OPEN BETA ACCOUNTS OPEN FOR APPLICATION, AND THE WORLD'S ATTENTION WAS INSTANTLY DRAWN TO THIS GAME.
