Chapter 10: The Story of the Prophets: A History of Mankind

The emergence of early Homo sapiens was about 250,000 years ago, when the Martians fled to the earth, human beings had begun to take shape, forming some relatively large gathering places, which can be said to have the prototype of civilization. During the time when the Martians were on Earth, everyone was also safe and sound, until they began to migrate because of the reduced lifespan, and the ecological disaster was terrible.

A large number of nuclear fusion facilities of the Martians were damaged in the earthquake, although the radiation of nuclear fusion is already very small, but the Martians are too eager for quick success, they have many facilities, and the total radiation leakage has fully reached the standard of ecological disaster, the first to be affected is the ocean, a large number of marine life has died, and it has also caused a shortage of human food, but this is not the biggest threat, really

The threat is invisible, and the entire ecology of the planet is suffering from the effects of nuclear radiation.

The early gathering places of human beings were mainly close to the ocean, where there was fresh water, for humans at that time, the ocean was easier to obtain food, and most of these places also had nuclear fusion facilities, some human communities disappeared, and some human beings chose to migrate in the face of an existential crisis, and among them there was an ancestor of modern humans, radiation caused some genetic mutations, so that they had a larger brain capacity, which also laid a solid foundation for them to have higher intelligence.

Such new humans also demonstrated their superior superiority in the long years, and later the earth was full of their footprints, and it seems that the history of mankind has come, but the Martians have interfered with this process.

After the Martians migrated, they also left tens of thousands of people on the earth to deal with the ecological disaster of the earth, their starting point is good, but the problem of reducing the life span of these people is still the biggest threat they face, the earth disease is their lingering shadow, and the ecological disaster of the earth can not be solved in a few hundred years, but it will take thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, for such a long time, they people, the continuation of the race may be a problem, which also laid the fuse for the later war.

The Martians who stayed behind while restoring the ecology of the earth, while looking for a cure for the reduction of life expectancy, perhaps their good deeds touched the earth, in a chance, they found that the blood of the new humans can almost perfectly suppress their earth disease, although they do not know how this mechanism works, but at least solve their urgent needs. The prophet was visibly disappointed when he said this, but they had followed the path of their ancestors.

It is a tragedy for human beings that their blood is made into potions and must be used for life.

At first, the Martians were very restrained, but with the solution of the earth disease, their race is gradually expanding, and the demand is also increasing, and this is not the most fatal, in the evolution of nearly 20,000 years, they have been completely different from their ancestors Martians, they call themselves "Atlanteans" because their main city is called Atlantis City.

The formation of the Atlanteans is definitely related to the long-term use of human blood potions, and now they can no longer find the short and thin figure of their ancestors in terms of size and appearance, the average height has reached two meters, and the lifespan is basically stable at two hundred years old, the only thing that is gratifying is that their complex ability seems to have degraded, otherwise the master of the earth should be changed, but even so, when they were in their heyday, they also reached tens of millions of people, and these tens of millions of people, do you know what this means? It means more human sacrifices.

The Atlanteans herded humans like cattle and controlled their thoughts through religion, which is a great insult to intelligent beings, and I will never sit idly by, and my solution is to attack my own shield with my own spear.

They use religion to control humanity, and I use religion to ignite the spark of human revolt, and the door surrounded by red mist when you came was the product of that time, and I call him the portal.

At that time, they had more than a dozen large blood collection fields on Earth, all over the continents, and I also had portals in them, through various incarnations, I taught human knowledge, enlightened the mind, and enabled it to have the ability to resist the rule of the Atlanteans, during which the war between the two sides was also won and lost, but the real war would soon come.

In fact, the outcome of the war has already been decided, this bloodsucking worm crawling on the back of human beings, it is impossible to kill his host, but human beings do not have this concern, the victory or defeat of the war can be predicted, but the tragic situation after the war is shocking, human beings have plummeted from a population of more than a billion to tens of millions of people, and the losses are not all because of the war, but human beings chose to commit suicide, which in order to get rid of the fate of slavery, and made a fearless sacrifice, even I admire the courage and decisiveness of human beings in times of crisis.

When he said this, Zhao Deming also saw tears rolling in the prophet's eyes, and he was also enthusiastic and respectful for having such an ancestor.

The losses of the Atlanteans were also very large, and they survived only a few hundred thousand, and war was never the best way to resolve conflicts, but sometimes it was the most effective.

The post-war tragedy also led to the birth of the peace agreement, and as a witness, I witnessed the greatness of humanity, a great race that was indomitable and dared to resist oppression.

The peace agreement divided the sphere of human and Atlantean rule, with the whole of Eurasia under human administration and the Americas under the Atlantean people.

In the long time since then, the human race has slowly recovered, and burst out of a brilliant civilization, while the Atlanteans, after the war, they are exhausted, not only the loss of population, but also the trauma of the soul, perhaps they also realize that the time of mankind has come.

My last conversation with the Atlanteans was also in this room, they thought that there was no point in staying here, it was time to follow in the footsteps of their ancestors, and at the same time they also made a request, to take away some of the human race, this I can understand, after all, they can't do without human blood, in fact, then again, they are also the sons of the earth, living for tens of thousands of years, the earth is actually their home planet, and the Martian ancestors are more like distant memories.

The Atlanteans didn't come to talk to me to take away the humans, rather, they came to threaten me, they left a weapon on Earth that was enough to destroy me, maybe because of what happened to their ancestors, the Martians, and in that sense, they became the guardians of the race, which is a bit ironic. After they left, it was not only the part of the human race that followed them, but also the thing they created and carried forward by mankind, that is, religion, after the war, they already had the rudiments of this faith, and the sun of the solar system will always be their guiding light home, maybe when they are wandering, take a look at where the sun is, so that they will not be so lonely.

"How about my story? Have you ever been shocked! The Prophet seemed pleased with his performance, "Do you have a different understanding of your ancestors, although the Martian Ascension project failed, I will definitely succeed in humans, because I see the unique qualities of humans." ”

Zhao Deming also didn't expect that there would be such a complicated situation in this solar system, so if it was put in the Milky Way and the universe, it wouldn't be messy, but these are not his current focus, what is going on with this ascension plan, he needs to figure it out, listening to the meaning of the prophet's previous words, it should be similar to technical assistance.

"That'...... What exactly is this ascension plan? Zhao Deming also asked.

"The main goal of the Ascension Project is actually to allow human beings to quickly enter the big family of the galaxy, and through technical assistance and ideological intervention, to make it reach the standards of the Archians, this is the Ascension Project," the prophet said very directly, "Since the human race has not formed a unified government, and there are many internal factions, this also has caused a certain difficulty to the implementation of the Ascension Project, so the technology can only be given separately in the early stage, and after reaching a certain balance, continue the next plan after referring to the level of human thought."

"So what can I do?" Zhao Deming asked.

"You, simple, you are now my plenipotentiary, first cooperate with the government, we desperately need a stable external environment, but my identity cannot be exposed, you first talk in the name of Freemasonry, I have already arranged the specific content, how about it? Is there confidence? The prophet looked at him with some expectation.

"I can only say, I try my best, you know, things at that level ......" Zhao Deming obviously lacked confidence in himself.

"Ability, in fact, at a high level, is not as important as you think, personality is the key, and you have this key personality, so I have confidence in you." Saying that, the prophet also stood up and walked in front of Zhao Deming, "If you fail, then I can only be replaced, in front of the Ascension Plan, no one is irreplaceable." ”

"......Boom" Zhao Deming's heart flashed like a lightning bolt, the prophet's words undoubtedly brought a great shock to Zhao Deming, the attitude of the prophet before made him have an illusion, thinking that he could sit back and relax under the protection of the prophet, in fact, these are all illusions, even if the prophet can support him, but in the end he has to rely on himself, figure this out, Zhao Deming is also for the previous naivety secretly wry smile, "I understand, I will definitely do a good job." ”

"I believe in you." The prophet patted Zhao Deming's shoulder encouragingly, and then walked towards Zhang Lili, "Lili, from now on you are Zhao Deming's assistant, responsible for coordinating and Freemasonry affairs, and helping Zhao Deming complete his mission, you know very important, the plenipotentiary may be replaced, but you won't"

"Yes, I will definitely complete the things delivered by the prophet," Zhang Lili replied calmly, it seems that after going through some things, she has also matured a little.

"Then please wait at the door first, I have a few words to say to Zhao Deming alone," After seeing Zhang Lili go out, the prophet also came to Zhao Deming and sat down.

"Is there anything else this prophet would like to say?" Zhao Deming was also secretly thinking in his heart.

"You must be curious about what I'm going to tell you, huh?" The prophet changed his serious expression, and vaguely seemed to return to the girl who walked with him outside the moon, "Your task is special, in addition to those things on the surface, personal relationships are also very important, just like you and me now, some things are inconvenient in public, but in private there are not so many concerns"

Zhao Deming also deeply understands that this good personal relationship can indeed achieve twice the result with half the effort at some times.

"The implementation of the Ascension Project is actually a bit hasty, but I have to do it, because I have not heard from the Creator for too long, and only by implementing this plan, maybe I will have the opportunity to ......" The Prophet seemed to be a little lost, "It is really uncomfortable to be forgotten for tens of thousands of years"

"I ...... I'll help you, trust me," Zhao Deming tried to reassure.

"It's okay, in addition, although I ask you not to say my situation during the negotiation, but you can reveal some in private, in fact, the political leaders of the major countries also know something about me, but they don't know much, we will also meet in the future, but not at this time, so I need to use your bridge to make them have a new understanding of me, in this process, you need to pay attention to one point, that is, you have to keep a human heart, this is very important to me." The prophet's last words seem somewhat contradictory.

"This ...... Seem...... Somewhat contradictory? Zhao Deming also saw the problem, and he was also puzzled, "As the representative of the prophet, isn't it in her interests to consider the problem?" ”

"This is actually not a contradiction, because you, or all the human beings, are too panicked, an unknown, powerful civilization, rashly appearing in front of you, does not necessarily mean danger, it may also be good-intentioned, do you know what I mean?" The Prophet still smiled, "I'm like a teacher who teaches without class, I hope that every student can graduate smoothly with their strengths, Martians are a minority after all, no teacher wants to see a student with a nuclear bomb button in his hand, and I just broke that button and expelled him from the class, isn't he himself good?" ”

"It's a fitting analogy, and from the experience of the Martians, it's true, but what does it have to do with keeping a human heart?" Zhao Deming fell into deep thought.

"Whether a student can graduate or not, the most important thing is not how strong his ability is, but whether his mind will threaten the galaxy, if he has dangerous thoughts, just like the Martian, after he goes out of the solar system, he will find that there are many people who are better than him, if he still insists on going his own way, then the result is obvious, a good student can not only master the technology, but also a mature individual, with his own independent judgment, which is why you are required to think from the standpoint of human beings, not mine." The prophet also saw Zhao Deming's confusion and deliberately explained.

"That'...... This seems to be a sure-fire deal, you only need to pay a small price, and you can get a very rich return," but after thinking about it, Zhao Deming was stunned on the spot, "All this seems to be ......"

"Seems too rational, or too perfect, doesn't it?" Sure enough, you still see the problem, "The age of tens of billions of years in the galaxy, I don't know how many civilizations have been bred, but they are all destroyed, have you thought why?" My creators have also experienced the baptism of war, and they want to try to take a different path, although you will pay some price for this, but it is much better than the extermination of the race in the past, the dark forest is a spell that imprisons all civilizations. ”

"Well, I think I understand it thoroughly, I will definitely do a good job, this is about the fate of mankind." Zhao Deming also felt the heaviness on his shoulders.

"Let's get here today, go back and prepare well, I'm optimistic about you!" The prophet smiled brightly, as if he were the innocent girl again.
