Shepherding Humanity

"I’m willing to listen to the stories of the gods.” Zhao Shirou lowered her voice respectfully.

Xu Zhi walked in front and spoke in the ruins, ” a long, long time ago, there was a race that lived on the edge of the lava. They had unparalleled wisdom.

The moment Zhao Shirou heard it, she knew that the ancient God was talking about the past glory of the izodarian people.

They advanced their technology like crazy. In the end, each of them possessed great power, knowledge as vast as the sea, and perfect looks. They could even download the corresponding knowledge they wanted from the internet and become omnipotent people.

They call themselves the God race, and every one of them is proficient in the divine C language. They can modify the genes and memories of other life forms, and they possess great power comparable to the gods. If they were to be placed in the outer realms, they could destroy and rule a magical beast race!

In fact, they only need to send one citizen to the outer region to unify the huge lava region!

Conquering and ruling the world is meaningless to them. They already have enough land.

For a civilization to develop to this extent, it’s already unimaginable. If there are no restrictions, they can also hack into their social network with just one citizen, causing their own civilization to be paralyzed.

When every member of a race has the power to easily destroy their own race and destroy the order … If we don’t restrict our clansmen, they will be destroyed.”

At this point, Xu Zhi looked at Zhao Shirou. so, what should we use to restrict them? The law on paper? Self-discipline? Moral?”

Zhao Shirou was silent.

There was almost nothing that could limit their actions.

For example, the written social laws of the ancient society with television, computers, and the Internet, the establishment of the security Bureau, the patrolling of the government, and the arrest of the criminals, were no longer able to restrict them … The destructive power they could cause alone was too terrifying, and they were well-hidden! Attacking shopping malls, websites, and shops was enough to paralyze an entire province!

This was the inevitable trend of the development of civilization to such a high level.

This is an interesting civilization story.

Zhao Shirou was silent for a moment. I guess the only way for them to stop their self-destruction is to write the ‘law’ in the depths of their genes and set up a ‘guilty death mechanism’. This is the only way to make them follow the law like the humans of the previous society.

"Yes, you’re very smart.”

Xu Zhi smiled and continued to walk through the ruins of the street. Suddenly, he sat down on a wooden bench in a park’s Fountain Square. Looking from afar, it was as if he was reminiscing the ancient glory of this land.

Setting up a ‘guilt mechanism’ is the only choice for this civilization. They are still the same to the outside world, but there are no internal conflicts. They have begun to move towards happiness, harmony, kindness, law-abiding, no distrust, and the firewall has also allowed them to remove the high wall between people … They worked together, and as a result, their civilization developed even more terrifyingly, and their technology was updated to an unimaginable level.”

However, no civilization has a perfect system. Because of this, they have three unavoidable weaknesses.

First, it’s written in the depths of the genes. There’s always the possibility of a person with a genetic defect appearing. Although it’s avoided with all efforts, the probability is one in a hundred million, so there’s still a possibility of it happening … As long as there was a possibility, it would definitely appear with the passage of time! This is the fearsome nature of time. Any small probability event will become an inevitable event!”

Zhao Shirou was silent.

This was indeed unsolvable.

The scary thing about a murderer was not that he could go around killing people. After all, no matter how big an individual disaster was, it could not destroy a civilization … Just like before, he had paid a huge price to take him down.

The real horror of the murderer was that he could be a top ” hacker. after breaking through the ” guilty death limit, ” he was free and could directly research his own firewall and create a virus to invade.

This was unavoidable.

The birth of the murderer could not be monitored by Skynet, because every ” Protoss ” was too powerful. The moment they left, they were not bound by the ” Law ” and could directly send ” normal ” instructions to hide in Skynet’s surveillance.

He only needed to hide for a few decades and study the corresponding virus …

"This is the first fatal flaw.” Xu Zhi laughed.

Secondly, as a law, there must be someone who holds the key. As the ‘sword holder’, his good and evil will destroy the entire civilization. If one of the successors of a certain generation has evil intentions, it will be inevitable.

Xu Zhi interjected a short story for Zhao Shirou. It was the story of Cheng Xin, the ” sword wielder ” in the ” three-body “. When the button for civilization was pressed, the mentality of the person in charge would determine the continuation and destruction of civilization.

Zhao Shirou was silent.

There was absolutely no problem with the character of Madam Carolyn and her successor, Viviana. But what about the future? Generation after generation of heirs, perhaps there would come a day when there would be a problem …

As long as there was a possibility, he would definitely be born as time passed!

Zhao Shirou was terrified and couldn’t help but ask excitedly, ” the person who is responsible for standing at the top of society, controlling and modifying the law. This is the second flaw. Then, what is the third flaw …

She had always known about these two flaws. In fact, all the people of isodar knew about them.

The third flaw is that the people of isodar can not become gods. Xu Zhi said lightly.

"What!”

Zhao Shirou’s eyes widened.

She instantly reacted. Yes! There had been no ” gods ” before, and the people of isodar had not considered this. At that time, there was no concept of level eight gods.

However, as soon as the isodarian people were destroyed, the ” God ” appeared so quickly, while the isodarian people did not appear before …

This was too illogical!

It was as if the people of isodar were deliberately suppressing the appearance of the gods.

Xu Zhi sighed. the civilization of the isodarian people has long reached an extremely terrifying height … Were they unable to become gods? No, they have already met the technical requirements.”

That’s because once a living being becomes a God, they will no longer be restricted by the ‘guilt mechanism’. Carolyn’s dream is to create a perfect and equal world where everyone is a God, and everyone possesses great power. However, when a true God appears, it will definitely not be equal, and might enslave commoners! That would not be in line with her dreams, and she would end up as a powerhouse of the ladder, just like in the extraordinary world, where the strong preyed on the weak and destroyed the structure of the entire civilization.”

They’ve already developed the space technology, but they don’t dare to announce it to the public, afraid that other life forms will use it to become gods … If other beings become gods, the isodarian civilization might be destroyed by the ‘gods’. ”

Zhao Shirou’s hair stood on end, and she had goosebumps all over.

This was the real reason why there had never been a God in the vast era of advanced civilization of Ishtar!

"No wonder! No wonder …” Zhao Shirou’s mind went blank.

Was this the truth of history?

She closed her eyes. Her eyelids were trembling, and her long eyelashes were fluttering. how sad … she said. The ancient civilization called themselves the God race, but they restricted their people from becoming gods … This is the third weakness. If a race and civilization is forever limited to rank-7, they will inevitably be eliminated in the future. This is also the inevitability of time.”

Xu Zhi smiled faintly. these three vital points, the birth of a murderous ghost, the disloyalty of the sword-wielder, and the civilization’s eternal stagnation at Level Seven … If any of the fatal factors were to break out, they would almost certainly be destroyed …”

Is our destruction inevitable?

From the very beginning, our perfect and happy social form was the wrong path?

Zhao Shirou took a deep breath, it was hard to imagine that the truth was so cruel.

These three problems are enough to be fatal. Therefore, Carolyn has been thinking of ways to solve it. Even with her think tank and scientists, they were unable to solve it. In her deductions, destruction seemed to be inevitable. As time passed … At a certain point in time, as long as one of the three vital points explodes, it will be instantly destroyed.”

She’s an extreme person, ” Xu Zhi said. since the people of isodar are bound to die, what can she do to save them from death? ”

So, she thought of a terrible plan, the ” civilization everlasting plan, ” also known as the ” God race eternal plan.

When the people of isodar were facing destruction, they would activate this final plan … She had thought that when she exploded, it might be the next generation of Viviana … I didn’t expect it to come so early.”

When Zhao Shirou heard this, terrifying waves hit her.

He didn’t expect that such a big secret was hidden under the ice Mountain.

Yet, this ancient God had witnessed the rise and fall of the Ishtar civilization. It was as if he was standing there, watching the torrent of history.

Was this what a God was?

One generation after another, he would stand at the top and look on indifferently, forever remembered.

She had been cultivating passively all this time, and now she suddenly wanted to become stronger.

Once the people of isodar are destroyed because of those three problems, they will start the plan for the gods ‘eternal life and realize the continuation of the gods. What is the plan? ” When Zhao Shirou heard this name, she felt terrible, as if she was a madman.

Xu Zhi laughed. do you think that a civilization and a race can exist forever? ” he asked in return. &Nbsp;

Zhao Shirou was stunned. This was a question about the eternity of civilization. After thinking about it seriously, she replied respectfully, ” a civilization can not last forever. Alternation, destruction, and rise are inevitable …

"Yeah …”

Xu Zhi sighed faintly and then said in a cold voice, ” such a delusional idea is impossible to achieve! From that moment on, Carolyn knew that it was impossible to have a truly perfect and blissful society in this world. That would only exist in the land of dreams … That’s right, unless you’re living in a dream, why don’t you go and have a good dream! There was everything in the dream! Everything exists!”

Living in a dream …

Zhao Shirou trembled, goosebumps rising all over her body!

Xu Zhi continued to stride forward and walked through the ruins. He asked, ” no civilization can last forever, just like no life can last forever … As for life, what do you think is the way to achieve eternal life?”

Zhao Shirou was silent again, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, ” eternal life? There should be no life that could exist forever. Those that would not die of old age would be killed. True immortality might be in another form. For example, how did one define a person’s true death? Perhaps if people had forgotten about him and stopped talking about him, he would really be dead … Mr. Levis, to a certain extent, he is still alive, because he will always live in our hearts, in a corner of our memories.”

Xu Zhi sighed in admiration. that’s right. When the dead are remembered by people, when civilization is recorded in the annals of history, living in people’s memories and in other people’s dreams is also another kind of eternal life.

Live in my memory?

Zhao Shirou was silent for a moment, and her mind suddenly thought of an extremely incredible thing!

Xu Zhi suddenly smiled faintly. the Protoss ‘eternal life plan, however, does not allow for eternal life. This is a paradox, because as long as one is alive, they will be killed and destroyed. Perhaps only the dead Protoss will be able to survive … Only then can you walk towards eternal life.”

Zhao Shirou’s eyes widened. the last plan to deal with the extinction of a civilization, the ‘Protoss eternal plan’ is … Eternal life?”
