Chapter 813 Fusion (Thanks to the gift from Dream Interpretation Nanhua ~ Love you ~)
"I think everyone's idea is wrong! If you want to obtain high-quality power of faith, there is no need to learn the system here! We just need to seize the population here." The beautiful woman came forward to mediate.
"Although what you said is true, how many people are there in this world? Only tens of billions. Are tens of billions of people enough for so many gods like us to share? So I still think that we should master their way of cultivating faith and implement it in our own world. My world has 300 billion people. With so many people, if they all provide high-quality power of faith, I'm afraid I will become the strongest middle-level god in an instant!" An evil god began to dream.
"How can it be that easy, idiot! The rapid development of this world is inseparable from the help of those sealed evil gods. Those evil gods provide energy for free, which allows the time of this world to be accelerated. Do you still want to learn from them and contribute your own power to speed up your own world? You can't do this alone, right?"
Sure enough, when the topic of dedication was brought up, the evil gods who had just been clamoring to learn the system shut up. However, their eyes became a little strange. It was indeed impossible for them to dedicate themselves, but they could capture other evil gods and force them to dedicate themselves! For a moment, the atmosphere among the evil gods became a little weird.
The beautiful woman covered her forehead in exhaustion. "There are more than 400 evil gods imprisoned in this world. If we can annex this world, we can not only completely obtain their system, but also divide up all their evil gods. What do you think?"
The other evil gods gradually regained some of their normal expressions after hearing this. Indeed, it would be more practical to divide up what was already there.
Seeing that everyone had calmed down, the beautiful woman breathed a sigh of relief. It was too troublesome to cooperate with these evil gods. There were about two hundred evil gods present, but she was the only medium-level evil god. He was the leader among them, but even though he was extremely powerful, few people at the scene obeyed him. The cooperative relationship was very fragile. Once there was no interest, everyone would just scatter. But fortunately, the power of faith in this world was very sweet. The people who were not very close at first finally had the same interests, which was a good thing from a certain perspective.
At this time, an evil god spoke up. "This world is so large, but why is the population so small? This doesn't seem normal."
Another evil god also said: "This is indeed very strange. Maybe the race of people here is different. They may be more advanced, and advanced people are always rare. It's not like our world, where even a small place can have hundreds of billions of people."
The evil gods began to discuss the various anomalies in this world, which was a very rare thing.
Soon, it was time for the people in the world below to dream again. The evil gods stopped discussing and quickly began to communicate with the people they had chosen. They had too many confusions to solve.
"I'm actually a little curious. Your world is so large, more than 20 times larger than ours, but why can our world's population easily reach 500 billion, while your world is so large, but there are only 100 billion people? Is it really a racial difference?" asked a young evil god. His true form is actually a big rat, but after turning into a human form, he looks handsome and cute.
The guest in the dream he was questioning was an elderly man. After hearing this question, the old man looked a little bitter, as if he recalled some bad memories.
"I don't think it's a racial difference. In fact, when I was a child, the world's population was 500 billion. But since the technological explosion, people's fertility rate has dropped significantly. I didn't quite understand why this happened. After all, people's lives have become so good, but why are people unwilling to have children..."
"In the old days, those conservatives would say that we were becoming more and more selfish, indulging in our own enjoyment and neglecting the care of our offspring. And I believed this statement at the time."
"But after the advent of the new era, I realized how ridiculous the old sayings were. People may be selfish, but most of the time they are not selfish to their offspring. In other words, this selfish argument is simply untenable."
The evil god scratched his head and said, "That's true. Even mice raise their offspring, not to mention humans. So why do people give up their right to reproduce?"
"Child, I don't know if you have read Mr. Dior's works. Some of his descriptions can perfectly explain this problem. In the past, when various systems were not perfect, capital would inevitably cause a large number of unemployed people in order to develop. They needed to keep these unemployed people and force people to engage in involution. In this way, they can lower people's wages and allow them to make more profits at lower prices."
"The unemployed population generated in this process is the surplus population. These surplus populations cannot produce any value at all. They are a waste of productivity. The generation of these surplus populations is also caused by the lack of competitiveness..."
Upon hearing this, the evil god said as a matter of course: "The strong prey on the weak, and survival of the fittest is natural, isn't it? If they are not competitive enough, they should be unemployed! In this way, only the strong ones will be left!"
The old man smiled and said, "You think the same as those capitalists, but this idea is actually very wrong. You have to know that the technology of that era was very advanced. It seems that even so, people still lived a very difficult life. Because children have to receive complicated education as soon as they are born to adapt to many high-tech jobs in this society."
"This also brings about a serious problem, that is, it becomes very difficult for a child to become a qualified productive force. After people invest a lot of energy and money in the education of their offspring, they are likely to let their children become idle surplus population. So do you think, if you are a parent, would you want your children to become surplus population despised by the whole society?"
The evil god was suddenly stunned. He scratched his head for a long time before saying, "I seem to understand a little. If it were in our world, every offspring born would become a stable labor force, because the work they do is simple physical labor, so the more children they have, the more they can support themselves. But this does not apply to you. After you give birth to your offspring, you still need to go through a series of education before they can give back to the family, but the large amount of resources invested in this process may be wasted. Therefore, not many people will do this kind of loss-making business. They would rather enjoy themselves than reproduce..."
The old man nodded. "That's right. This is the last means of resistance. Even with the sharp decline in population, those greedy superiors are still not satisfied. If it weren't for Mr. Dio and the God of Retribution to eliminate them, our world would eventually be doomed. Moreover, those superiors actually overlooked something. They always think that the descendants of the strong are also strong, which is an absurd idea. Because the descendants of the strong are not necessarily strong, and the descendants of the weak are not necessarily weak. They have caused a large reduction in population, but have greatly stifled the possibility of geniuses appearing. This has also caused the stagnation of social development."
"Just like in today's era, the strongest people in each industry are not the descendants of the so-called strong. Most of the parents of the strongest people in the industry are ordinary people. In other words, the probability of geniuses appearing among ordinary people is actually much higher than that of the rich. Because ordinary people are the majority, as long as the base is large enough, there will always be special geniuses. Of course, the premise of all this needs to be based on educational equality. Otherwise, many geniuses among ordinary people will be buried."
"It is undeniable that the development of this society is inseparable from the promotion of geniuses. However, the emergence of geniuses is inseparable from a large number of ordinary people. We need to take a long-term view and unite to find ways to make everyone live a better life. This is not a waste, but a more rational way of investment."
The expression of the evil god was somewhat shocked, because he finally figured out the loophole of the so-called survival of the fittest. The survival of the fittest among the same race will only lead to a sharp decline in the number of people in this race, and they will lose more possibilities to exist in the future. As a higher creature, in addition to the survival of the fittest, there is actually win-win cooperation. The more advanced the society, the less it advocates the survival of the fittest, and instead focuses on win-win cooperation.
"Unity and win-win cooperation... Your life seems to be pretty good now, so there should be a lot more newborns in your era, right?" asked the evil god.
"Of course. Without the pressure of raising offspring, the population will usher in a new period of explosion. Many recent data also show this. It is estimated that in 50 years, the world population will reach 300 billion. By then, there will surely be more geniuses emerging." After the old man finished speaking, he calmly turned his eyes to the evil god. His eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
In fact, he chatted with this evil god not because he was bewitched by him, but because he found that this evil god seemed to have a confused soul. He felt that he had an obligation to help him solve his doubts.
However, this evil god was lost in thought at this moment.
"If you want to gain more faith, you must develop the population. I originally thought that I only needed to learn from this world to improve the technological capabilities, but I didn't expect there are so many tricks involved. Sometimes when technology improves, the population will decrease... Well, I need to learn more knowledge."
This evil god is actually a member of the reformists. He hopes to gain more and better faith by improving the system of his world. Because his own strength is very weak, he is at a disadvantage in the competition with other evil gods. He knows very well that even if he helps his colleagues to seize this world, he may not get much benefit in the end. So he set his sights on more advanced things in this world. And these knowledge-based things are what can really help him.
"Oh... If only I could take you to my world..." the evil shota said from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay." The old man said calmly.
"Um... did I say something just now? Huh? Wait! Are you really willing to come with me?" The evil shota thought he had heard it wrong.
"Of course I would." The old man smiled.
The evil god was a little excited, but soon he became hesitant because he had beautified his world when he introduced it to the old man. He was afraid that the old man would be disappointed when he saw the scene that did not meet his expectations, and he might even be unwilling to help him.
For a moment, the evil god was a little worried because he had been taught a lot by the old man during this period of time. The evil god really admired the old man in front of him and even regarded him as a teacher.
However, due to the evil nature of the evil god, the evil god's understanding of the teacher is still the kind of use when useful, and discard when useless. He treats everyone like this.
Looking at the anxious Shota Evil God, the old man said, "I am 82 years old this year. I have experienced all that I should have experienced and enjoyed all that I should have enjoyed. I don't have many years left to live. If it were in the old era, I would have died. But in the new era, I know I still have unfinished business to do."
"In the world you described to me earlier, people must still be living in dire straits, right? Even if you try your best to hide it, some logical things are still too easy to see through."
