But he did vent all his dissatisfaction and resentment.

All the others were silent.

The oldest person, Mrs. Elliot, who already had silver hair, looked at Nellie with sad eyes.

As the only young man on the farm, everyone cares about Nellie. Hearing such words and the dissatisfaction and despair that Nellie has been suppressing in his heart, how can they not be sad.

But, it cannot be refuted.

Perhaps they have already accepted all of this, but they are also unable to refute Nellie's words, because this place is exactly as Nellie said.

Despair, boredom, depression. Even to the point where choosing death is not a misfortune.

Ned suddenly stood up, walked to the corner of the room, fumbled to take out the last cigarette in his collection, lit it, put it to his lips and took a deep puff.

"Cough cough." He was choked and kept coughing.

Nader used to be a heavy smoker, but he had to quit later because all the cigarette factories stopped production and people could no longer waste precious resources to produce non-essential items such as cigarettes.

However, Nader quickly found the familiar feeling.

It seemed that the cigarette worked, and his originally impatient expression gradually calmed down.

Everyone was looking at him.

"Nellie," Nader said finally in a hoarse voice, "I'm signing up with you."

"What?" The others were all shocked.

Including Nelly, their eyes suddenly widened.

Obviously, no one expected Nader to say this suddenly.

"I'm fifty years old." Nader's expression was very calm. He slowly exhaled a puff of his cigarette and looked at everyone with a reluctant look. "You all know that since Patience died, even I don't know why I am still alive. In fact, I have been thinking about leaving this world since that time."

"Mr. Nader." Nellie said anxiously, "You don't have to..."

"Nellie." Nader interrupted Nellie, "Many people know this, so they let me be the administrator, just to give me something to do."

In fact, this is not uncommon.

In this world, although people cannot have children, they often look for a partner to give themselves a reason to live. Single people rarely last too long.

Nader's wife died early due to lack of medicine.

Therefore, even Nellie found it difficult to say anything at this time.

"Now I understand. Instead of dying like this, I'd rather make my life more meaningful. Perhaps this can fill the void in my heart." Nad continued. It was obvious that this was not an impulsive choice.

Of course he could choose to continue living like this.

However, Nellie's decision seemed to have infected him.

Because he used to be the same as Nellie.

Everyone present remained silent.

But Nader suddenly laughed.

"Hey, guys, don't be like this. This is better than euthanasia anyway. Remember our rules? I think this choice deserves a farewell party. Besides, they may not choose me."

This sentence seemed to work, and many people laughed.

"Maybe they'll assign you to a farm, then you might as well stay."

"If that's the case, I'll sign up too! To be honest, I've wanted to leave a long time ago."

"That's right, everyone can see that. You should smile more often, hahaha."

“.”

The originally somewhat sad atmosphere seemed to be diluted a lot in an instant.

There were some things that even Gu Yan and Reed had not anticipated.

That is, if a person is not afraid of death, how can he be afraid of paying more to make his life more valuable?

therefore.

As time passed, Reed and Gu Yan were somewhat surprised to find that many elderly people in their fifties, sixties, or even sixties and seventies had chosen to sign up.

They no longer care about their own lives, so they don't care about the so-called difficulties, nor do they want to worry about whether they can hold on. Some of them even just want to make their unfortunate lives more valuable.

Finally, the live broadcast ended.

However, the impact of this live broadcast on the entire world has just begun.

Almost everyone was talking about that spaceship and that project.

Even people from the global political regime held emergency meetings one after another.

Some people wanted to do something to obtain technology from the Human Rights Guardian Association, and even wanted to target them through public opinion. However, such voices only lasted for a short time before they were ruthlessly suppressed.

Because they all received warnings from the Humanity Protection Association.

The global regime is too fragile.

In this civilization that has weakened to the limit and is still weakening, they are already struggling to maintain their own existence and not collapse. It is simply impossible for them to fight against the Human Guardian Association, which possesses glory, technology, and power.

What's more, more people want to join in.

I want to join this great plan and become a member of the Humanity Protection Association.

Eight days after the live broadcast that changed the whole world.

The global association issued an announcement to the world, announcing its official dissolution.

All departments were still retained, however, power was transferred to the Human Rights Guardian Association.

This news, which should have changed the world, seems to be silent at this time. Most people don’t care about it, and even take it for granted.

For such a civilization, rights no longer have much meaning.

Gu Yan and Reed also understood that the biggest challenge was about to come.

"There is simply not enough food." Gu Yan's expression was very cautious. "The situation in this world is worse than we imagined. Relying solely on the food production of a medium-sized immigration spaceship, we can't even make a splash!"

"In the end, there will only be 200 million people who sign up. If they are going to starve, at least 95 percent of them will choose to give up." Reed also shook his head.

"Then select 10 million people who will not give up!" Gu Yan emphasized, "If they want to win this war, they must let these 1.8 billion people fight to provide food for these 10 million people. If they are determined enough, united enough, and work hard enough, they can still do it. After all, we can't solve all their problems."
