Just as Gu Yan said.

The whole city seems to be quite large, and it was quite spectacular when we first came in.

Even if there aren't many people, you can tell that there has been investment.

But the further inward you go, the more desolate it becomes.

There are many places that were half-built and then abandoned, and there are still some buildings that look like unfinished buildings, and even many large construction machines are still retained.

This makes this city, which should have been extremely spectacular and majestic, full of a doomsday atmosphere.

No, this is the end.

This city represents the rise and fall of human civilization.

"I'm afraid that from the beginning, they had no intention of moving towards the goal of propaganda." Reed saw more things, "Originally, there was no need to build such a city. In a world with developed transportation, there is no need to deliberately concentrate all projects. It is entirely possible to accumulate technical foundations in various places and then choose a place to build a spacecraft production base."

"So it's a face-saving project?" Gu Yan's tone was also a little low.

"No, it should be called an incentive project." Reed shook his head, his eyes seeming to have gone back to the past. "At that time, human civilization had begun to realize its future. The world government was established under the survival instinct of human civilization. The first thing to do was to maintain order and stability, so they urgently needed a grand project that would inspire confidence among people all over the world."

This is just speculation though.

But it is easy to find evidence.

That was the propaganda of that year.

If the publicity focuses on words such as "commitment", "determination" and "unprecedented", it means that Reed's guess is very likely correct.

Relying on artificial intelligence, it only takes a few seconds to investigate this.

The results are before our eyes.

This project was rife with falsehoods from the very beginning.

"Sure enough." Gu Yan narrowed his eyes. "The world has become like this. The decision-makers in human civilization have an unshirkable responsibility."

Environmental issues are problems that most human civilizations need to face when they develop to a certain level.

In fact, as long as there is a certain degree of foresight, the situation would not have developed to this point.

Because this kind of disaster can be predicted, calculated, and delayed as much as possible.

At the very least, when the environment deteriorates to the point where it is no longer viable, humans will have sufficient technological capabilities to cope with it.

But the human civilization of this world has become extinct for this reason.

"It's useless to pursue responsibility for what has already happened." Reed shook his head and said in a deep voice, "What we really need to worry about is the dire consequences that this will bring."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan also felt deeply helpless.

He naturally knew what Reed was referring to.

At this moment in the Kingdom of God, most people who witnessed all this could understand.

Especially Chu Lin.

At this time, his face was already complicated.

The disaster of this world itself can be understood as a weakened version of the disaster that happened to his world.

It is even extremely weakened.

High temperatures? Reduced food production? Sandstorms? Bad environment? They were nothing compared to the collapse of the sky and the earth.

Not to mention, it will take decades for the world's environment to completely deteriorate.

And his world... In just one year, the entire world became uninhabitable for human beings.

But how did they survive? The help of the association is an important part, but it is also the concerted efforts of the entire civilization, with the great efforts of every survivor and even countless sacrifices, that ultimately achieved such a magnificent miracle.

Because they experienced a tragic failure.

The power of 16 million elites, unprecedented capital investment, and the eager expectations of the entire human civilization. After the enthusiasm that seemed to have concentrated all the strength, it was met with an extremely tragic defeat. It was not even a defeat to the disaster, but a defeat to mankind itself.

This is like a dagger, a sharp thorn, piercing deeply into the spirit of the "collective".

When the collective strength is called upon once again, this bloody scar will rupture uncontrollably, bleed, and cause severe pain.

Then, what can a group that has been scarred do? This is the real reason why Gu Yan and Reed are upset.

The situation was even more difficult than they had imagined.

but--

Since they have chosen to save the world, they cannot give up easily. Gu Yan and Reed suppressed their uneasiness for the time being and continued to investigate the situation of this so-called space immigration project.

Twelve hundred thousand people are naturally not evenly distributed in this city that has been mostly abandoned.

Instead, it is concentrated in a few places.

Obviously.

These places are the projects that are still running.

Reed and Gu Yan soon arrived at the place where the largest number of people gathered.

About 60,000 people stayed in a corner of this city.

When they arrived here, they finally felt a little bit of the city's popularity. There were people walking in groups of three or four on the streets. What surprised and unexpected was that among these people, there were actually quite a few children.

Yes, he looks like a teenager, or even younger.

How many people are under the age of 25 in this world?

No more than 5%! The ever-decreasing food, the increasingly harsh environment, and the doomsday that can be seen with the naked eye have caused most people to refuse to have children, but in this place, there are still so many children.

"They seem to be students." Gu Yan saw more information. He saw a young girl wearing thick glasses, walking on the road with a notebook and writing continuously.

Just as Gu Yan was speaking, a football flew from nowhere towards the girl.

It hit her hard on the back.

The girl stumbled and almost fell to the ground, but she also showed an expression of pain.

Then came the teenagers' cheering whistles and wanton laughter.

"Hey, don't lower your head when you walk on the road."

"You are indeed a nerd."

"Throw the ball back. I'll stand still and let you throw it."

"Hahaha, it's no use. She can't even find the ball."

"Useless Dale."

“.”

The girl was obviously angry, even her face turned red, but she was also more obviously afraid. Her eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry.

The rest of the students were watching the fun.

This is obviously not the first time this has happened.

Gu Yan and Reed were both surprised to see such a scene in such a place.
