Chapter 68: The Terran Dilemma
"I'm requesting a postponement of matching."
"Are you having any difficulties?"
"I've been under a lot of pressure lately, and I don't have the idea of getting married for the time being, and I hope to understand."
"According to the regulations, you have reached the age of marriage matching, and even if it is delayed, it can only be extended for a maximum of one year ......."
"I know, I still choose to apply for a postponement of the match."
"Okay, I will record your situation, I wish you a happy life, and I wish you to find a suitable partner as soon as possible...... That way, you don't have to face our harassment. ”
hung up the phone, Su Nian's expression was helpless.
The family planning department came into existence after the era of conscription.
The department's initial mission was to match the age-appropriate adults with a marriage partner and then urge the birth of a newborn child as soon as possible.
The emergence of this sector is closely related to the course of the times.
With the advent of the Age of Conscription, people continue to be sent to the Decaying World, and the population is greatly reduced during this period.
Today, many cities have become empty, and the rest of humanity has moved to live in cities with large populations.
In order to solve the problem and maintain the normal functioning of society, the family planning department was established.
The first direction of the establishment of this department was to maintain the demographic structure and minimize the impact of conscription on the functioning of society.
All persons who are at least 18 years of age will be required to participate in a matchmaking with the Marriage Department.
There has been an analysis of the family planning department on the Internet.
It seems that the family planning department is to maintain stability, but the direction of more consideration is the right of human beings to speak in the purgatory city.
These two things seem to be unrelated, but they are actually deeply connected.
After entering the inner city of purgatory, humans have come into contact with other conscripted beings and have cooperated in many fields.
But humanity is too weak, the lowest of the conscripted races, and is often bullied by the powerful races.
In the Purgatory City, human beings are protected by the rules, and the strong clan does not dare to do anything excessive towards human beings.
But as soon as you enter the decaying world, the situation changes.
According to the Returnee's description, there are four scenarios in which the alien Infernal Warriors encountered while exploring the Decaying World.
First, cooperation.
Co-op is built on exploring the decaying world scenario for the confrontational scenario.
That is, there will be recruited warriors from other factions in the scene, and in this case, humans will become the object of cooperation with foreign recruited warriors, with only one purpose, that is, to defeat the opposing camp and recruit warriors.
The second case is bullying.
This happens when there are no rival factions to recruit warriors, and humans will even be directly extorted from embers by powerful alien recruits, and if they don't give it, there will be a series of suppressive behaviors other than killing.
Killing a Recruit from the same faction is not allowed, but there are many ways to kill a Recruit from the same faction.
For example, discarding dying humans in areas with a high concentration of corrosive monsters.
If you want to live, you can only choose to cooperate and give ember protection money.
There are countless such cases.
The third case, ignorance.
This kind of alien purgatory warrior directly ignores the weak Terrans, as long as it is not a confrontation scene, they directly ignore the existence of the Terrans.
The fourth case is help.
There are also human-friendly races among the alien recruits, and as warriors from the same faction, they are willing to help humans complete the main or side quests.
But the probability of this happening is rare.
The relationship between Terran and Alien Recruit Warriors is more likely to favor the bullied.
If you want to get rid of the bullying dilemma, there is only one way, and that is to comprehensively improve the comprehensive strength of the human race, so that the human race can have more say in Purgatory City.
But before that, we must first address the issue of population decay.
When all of humanity is conscripted into Purgatory City, the Terrans will be completely incapacitated.
The high-pressure living environment, coupled with the three-day trip to the decaying world, there is simply no stable soil for human reproduction.
As a result, the number of human beings will continue to decline in the future, and the comprehensive strength of the inner city of Purgatory will only become weaker and weaker, and it will not be able to compete with those alien races.
If you want to break through the predicament, the number of warriors recruited by humans is crucial.
Based on the direction of characterizing Purgatory City as a new home for humanity in the future, the Terrans must ensure positive population growth and gradually increase the influence of humans in the inner city of Purgatory.
There are many voices on the Internet who believe that this is the potential task of the family planning department.
But this point of view cannot be put on the face of it.
Everyone knows that it is the general trend for all human beings to be recruited into Purgatory City, and no one can stop the recruitment of the Purgatory God.
But if the official admits this, it is clear that the end of mankind will eventually come, and everything on earth will leave us.
This will cause further unrest in an already unstable society, seriously affecting the functioning of the existing order.
The price of real money for embers will also usher in explosive growth in a short period of time.
For the sake of stability maintenance, even if everyone knows the truth, the official cannot say it explicitly.
In Su Nian's opinion, the situation of human beings is much more serious than imagined.
Based on the information he had gathered, he felt that there were three dilemmas that humanity needed to face.
The first is that after the advent of the Age of Conscription, humans were constantly recruited into Purgatory City, resulting in a rapid decline in population.
The second is the problem of humans being bullied by aliens in Purgatory City.
Finally, there is the problem that the earth is being infiltrated by corrosive forces.
Especially the last question, which may have broken the incense of human continuity.
The first two problems only exist in the human group over the age of 18, but at least the earth is still there, and the continuation of humanity will still be continued on the earth.
Earth is like a logistical supply depot for humans in a decaying world, and more humans will join the Terran conscription warriors in the future.
If the earth is gone, humanity will only have a place to live in the future, Purgatory City.
But Purgatory City is not a good place, the harsh living environment will lead to further decay of the population, without the addition of fresh blood, the final outcome is most likely to be the death of all mankind in the decaying world.
Thinking of this, Su Nian couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In the face of the torrent of the times, individuals are as small as ants, but even if all human beings are combined, they are just an insignificant chess piece in the eyes of the God of Purgatory.
Their struggles, efforts, struggles, the God of Purgatory will not pay attention to, let alone care.
As for justice and morality, this is something that only exists in the eyes of human beings.
God doesn't have it, and it doesn't need it.
Because God is justice, and God is the maker of moral standards.
Moving forward and moving according to the rules set by God is the meaning of human existence in God's eyes.
Thinking that Ji Yun had said that he would break the rules set by the God of Purgatory and give freedom to all mankind, this grand dream could not be realized in his opinion.
After becoming a Shadow God, he saw the vast universe through the Banner of Recruitment, and also understood how terrifying the Purgatory God who could recruit billions of beings to fight for him was.
