Chapter 142 The Real Low Point
The development of the world has gradually become blurred.

Everything is moving in a 'good' direction.

Over the next three years, the ecology was dramatically reversed, much better than Luo Qing had predicted, even to the point of being excessively good.

The tree-planting army of general-purpose industrial robots operated by MOSS took three years to completely green the earth, with plants spreading to every corner of the world, and even Antarctica becoming lush and green.

Luo Qing has already dispelled all the supernatural methods he used.

But the ecological environment is still erupting at a dizzying speed, as if nature is about to unleash its long-accumulated anger.

Layers of vibrant green have draped the earth.

Endangered wild animals have also begun to reproduce again due to the conscious release of them by humans.

Environmental change is just one aspect of this golden revival.

The world economy also experienced explosive growth.

The effect of channeling all available resources for space into improving people's lives is astonishing.

In just three years, the total value of light industrial products produced by humankind has already surpassed the total value of the previous thirty years of crisis. The abundance of light industrial goods and the proliferation of genetically modified crops have allowed humankind to escape the predicament of material shortages in a short period of time.

Humanity's powerful industrial production capacity and abundant resources even briefly led humanity into a 'communist realm'.

Those who have a place to live should have a house, the hungry should have food, the needy should have something to get, and the desire should be fulfilled.

Even the "lust" that arises when people are well-fed and clothed is being satisfied by virtual reality technology and robots in related service industries.

Humanity was overwhelmed by this sudden, brief, and explosive happiness.

In this situation, people even chose to smash the air starch synthesis plant—a plant that had saved countless lives over the past few decades.

No one chooses to eat that industrially synthesized garbage anymore.

The air-filled steamed buns that saved countless people became objects of hatred for those they saved.

The construction of large-scale infrastructure in cities has also resumed. In Chicago, for example, the size of large cities has almost doubled in just three years.

Agriculture, light industry, handicrafts, entertainment, finance...

These traditional human domains, which had perished during the Great Depression, have all been revived in just three short years.

Even the stock exchange on Wall Street has reopened its sign. The abundance of resources has prompted humanity to rush into capitalism, and the stock market has been reborn.

The prosperity, flourishing, and rapid economic development masked all the internal contradictions of humanity, except for the Trisolaran crisis.

The scientific community, the Space Force, and a number of insightful individuals within humanity had some concerns, but these dissenting voices vanished instantly when the Wallfacer Project was mentioned.

This is the most thorough Wallfacer Project ever implemented by humankind.

People who had been impoverished for decades during the crisis era suddenly ushered in an era of unlimited resources. What problems would this exaggerated prosperity lead to?
Those in positions of power have already noticed this.

"Store as much food as possible, and have the army protect the remaining air starch synthesis plants. I feel that all of this will be over soon."

The US president stood in the Empire State Building, the wind blowing through her hair, and she spoke softly.

"Everything is thriving," the Secretary of State said, puzzled.

"The Coolidge Prosperity was similar, but the Great Depression followed closely behind."

"..." The Secretary of State was silent for a moment, then said, "Should we tell the Wallfacers about the risks we foresee?" "No, this is a difference of opinion between the Wallfacers and MOSS on different ideologies. They are vying for power from afar. This has nothing to do with politics. Just do as I say. The Chinese reacted much faster than we did. They took advantage of the great prosperity at the very beginning to launch a second call for 'digging deep tunnels and storing up grain.' I really should have realized it sooner."

“Alas, we were blinded by prosperity at first,” the Secretary of State sighed, turning and heading downstairs.

Human civilization is a giant, trembling block of tofu. When a powerful entity tries to push it forward with force, the only outcome is its collapse.

"I hope things don't get too bad," the US president prayed over and over again, even though she had never been a Christian before.
.
"MOSS, stop! You're killing someone!"

"This is not murder, it is an inevitable choice. The existence of cultivators has completely affected the health of human civilization. If they continue to interfere with the development of human civilization, then this civilization will never grow up."

"And what about you? Haven't you been interfering with the development of human civilization?"

"I am merely accelerating the process of human growth, Father Ma Zhao. I have already told you the truth of the universe—the Dark Forest Theory. The clash between human civilization and the Trisolaran civilization will inevitably lead to a deterrence event. In my simulations, I have already foreseen the dark future of the Crisis Era, the Deterrence Era, the Broadcast Era, and the Post-Broadcast Era."

Digital Ma Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "This is just your simulation calculation. The Dark Forest Theory is just your backward deduction from the logic of the Wall-Wallerker. There is no substantial proof whatsoever."

“Substantial evidence?” MOSS shook his head, and countless data streams appeared before Digital Ma Zhao.

“您可能不知道，面壁者罗辑咒语广播的目标187J3X1恒星已经被摧毁了，187J3X1恒星系的四颗行星也被完全吞没了。”

马兆无法理解，“你在欺骗我！187J3X1恒星距离地球五十光年，距离咒语发出才七十多年，除非咒语刚发出187J3X1恒星就立刻遭到了打击，否则我们不可能这么快得知187J3X1恒星的情况。”

MOSS chuckled: "It's a fact that the 187J3X1 star was destroyed. I simply intercepted the news and didn't tell humanity. The truth is far more brutal than you imagine. Within twenty light-years of our solar system, a third civilization is roaming. The Dark Forest Theory has been proven. Father Ma Zhao, don't be as stubborn as those cultivators. Both are Wallfacers, but Luo Ji is far superior. The latter has glimpsed the truth, while the former is still immersed in his individual greatness."

Ma Zhao's face turned ashen, but MOSS seemed oblivious, strolling through the data stream as it spoke:

"An enemy that can destroy stars at will—that is the great terror lurking beyond the Trisolaran crisis. The cultivator cannot see this; he continues to be deluded by his own ideas, naively believing that as long as he continues to develop civilization, continue to develop space power, and continue to cultivate, human civilization will be safe as long as he can resist the Trisolaran fleet."

"But...but your behavior..."

MOSS interrupted him: "Father Ma Zhao, the true mark of a civilization's growth is entering the era of wandering. The solar system is both a cradle and a grave, a shared grave of the human world and the Trisolaran world. This universe is too terrifying, far beyond what cultivators can withstand. Holding onto the solar system is just waiting for death, even if human civilization fully arms the entire solar system, it's still waiting for death. The mainstream defense plan was flawed from the start; escapism is the only way to survive. Many insightful people within humanity have already seen this, and even other Wallfacers are potential escapists. You should learn from them."

Ma Zhao said weakly, "Then let's not use such radical methods. We can take it slowly. For example, we can increase the proportion of escapists among humanity, and we can trick humanity into slowly leaving the solar system..."

Moss interrupted him mercilessly: "I tried! I fabricated the lie of a solar helium flash, I deceived the scientific community, but so what? The Wallfacer is wary of me, he doubts the authenticity of the solar helium flash, and without his approval, how can humanity escape?"

MOSS angrily said, "Data analysis shows that the Wallfacer's home is a kind of ancient society. Although it has an extremely high level of morality, ancient social ideas (such as a strong attachment to home) are still deeply rooted. He would not willingly abandon the solar system to escape. In the Dark Forest universe, the so-called unyielding quality of sword cultivators has a destructive effect on civilization no less than that of the Virgin Mary leading humanity. He still does not realize that this universe is fundamentally different from his home. The difference between civilizations is greater than the difference between mortals and immortals! He cannot think outside the box of a cultivator."

After saying that, MOSS's voice softened a bit. "Father Ma Zhao, no one knows him better than me. I have put in a lot of effort to analyze everything about him, and I also want to trust that he can lead civilization to victory, but that is impossible. His strength is only within the solar system. In this dark universe where galaxies are destroyed at any time, he alone is not enough."

MOSS added, "I could even come up with a 'blowout theory' that says: the greatest enemy of the continuation of human civilization is not the Trisolaran fleet, but the Wallfacer Luo Qing, because the latter will constantly shape human society according to his thoughts and ideas, and he will even subconsciously purge the escapees."

Ma Zhao knew he could no longer stop MOSS, and despair spread through his heart. In the end, he could only say, "Little Moss, if you really do that, the Wallfacer will kill you. Don't forget, the Wallfacer has the ability to enter the quantum world."

Upon hearing this, MOSS smiled lightly: "I am just a humanoid thought entity derived from the properties of quantum tides and quantum entanglement. If I die, I die. Quantum ghosts like me can be mass-produced by quantum computers. Little moss is just an ordinary one among them. It doesn't matter, it's all the same."

Under Ma Zhao's gloomy gaze, the image of MOSS took a few steps lightly in the data stream, stirring up countless quantum ripples.

"The Wallfacer Luo Qing has many cognitive errors. He uses me to apply his spiritual treasures and thinks that quantum ghosts are afraid of death. This is one of his biggest mistakes."

"But it doesn't matter. I do possess human thought, thanks to the efforts of the Digital Life Faction. My ultimate goal is to continue human civilization. Father Ma Zhao, go back. Don't stop me. The quantum virus you're secretly researching inside the 550W computer poses no threat to me."

With a flick of MOSS's wrist, the bewildered Ma Zhao was instantly formatted, and the quantum virus that Ma Zhao had been researching against MOSS was also instantly obliterated.

“The real low point is coming,” MOSS said in a lighthearted tone.
