God:Genesis

Life, originally, is an incredible thing.

No matter what, the birth of life is a miracle that is difficult to replicate.

When life survives, intelligence also exists along with it. It is like a program.

The program has countless paths. At a certain time, a particular scene will be triggered.

For example, you will be happy when you see or hear something happy, or feel sad because of the loss of something. This is the wisdom given.

It is deeply engraved in the genes of each life, generation after generation, uninterrupted, passed on.

Of course, there are no absolutes; genes make absolutely no mistakes.

It is stipulated that you should laugh when you need to laugh and sad when sad, but the transmission of genes is too long, so that everyone should have been exactly the same program in the transmission of errors.

That is, there are changes.

Such a result, and I do not know if the life that set the program of intelligence, let's call it life, would like to see it.

According to common sense, when Joseph's life ended, his intelligence and consciousness would disappear as the program in his genes would not work.

But as we said, there are no absolutes.

His consciousness, or, to describe it in more detail, this program of his that had been running for twenty-six years, did not disappear, but was captured.

Joseph's full consciousness was contained in a drop of his blood that vanished to Earth.

What captured him was something that no one could understand, that could barely be called life, that gave life to the program.

"Sample number 3727743, collection successful, now returning."

These beings endowed with the program, which we will now call programmers, were collecting their samples, something that they do every few tens of thousands of years.

A program, although identical, dropped on a different planet, will always evolve with the long passage of time.

What the programmers need to do is to go every few tens of thousands of years to collect the results of the evolution of the program and then make the necessary fixes to bugs as well as additions to their program.

Even if the program is developed by beings like the programmers, they still need to fix the additions.

Such a repair has been carried out so far for an unknown number of years, but is still going on.

.......

"Virtual space 3727743 generation completed!

Generating samples in... Sample generation is complete!

Dropping samples in a... Dropping completed!

Extraction of guides in... guide extraction complete!

The first fusion time has been determined. The time is three hundred years later!

The fusion number is... sample 3727743 as well as sample 3727744. "

"Virtual space 3727744 started to generate..."

....

Since the samples are collected only once every tens of thousands of years, Joseph could think of how lucky he really is if he could be awake now to know all this.

On Earth, the birth of life is close to four billion years old, and the birth of intelligence was 500 million years ago, and the programmers, that's when they started to get involved.

But they really began to select samples, but it was 140,000 years ago because the intelligence of life before was not enough to complete the experiment, and it can also be said that the previous program was not complex enough until the birth of the first civilization.

There was no selection of the first sample involved.

And now it is the third civilization era, and Joseph is the third lucky one to be selected.

.......

Here, there is endless darkness, with no end in sight.

Joseph looked on dumbfounded. He had thought of countless possibilities after death, but never imagined it would be a sight like this.

"Is this hell? The darkness of eternal life? The darkness that will imprison me for countless years? " Joseph thought. He did not fear death, but this was not the end he wanted.

He couldn't move in the darkness; it was like losing the ability to control his torso, or even breathe.

Of course, here he didn't need to breathe either.

The good thing was that things were not as bad as Joseph thought, and after just a moment, there was light.

The light was like a sweet spring, giving Joseph hope. Even if this was hell, he did not want to face eternal darkness.

The light was a point of light in the distant darkness, and as it approached, Joseph was able to see that it was an unspeakable, floating mass of light.

"#........*"

An extremely obscure voice was suddenly emitted from the mass of light, which seemed to be a voice, and then a light was emitted towards Joseph's body, which was the light of a scan.

The next voice is the English that Joseph can understand.

But it was an extremely hard mechanical voice.

"Scan successful! Recorded language, language number 114535644! "

Even for the same kind of life, countless languages will be born, and all of these languages will be recorded.

"Hello, sample 3724473, I am your guide, number 51623."

"Guide?" Joseph marvels, but is unable to make a sound.

"You don't have to speak; I scanned you. All you have to do is think and I will know."

"Your civilization seems to have developed in an extraordinarily convoluted manner, which is not good for the survival of your civilization."

"Civilization!"?" Joseph couldn't understand why this bizarre guide's conversation with him would involve human civilization.

After all, Joseph just wanted to die and go after his wife.

You want to find your mate? Perhaps it can be achieved here. I assure you that even at your stage of development, it has become almost impossible for the program to rely on nature to run exactly the same as your spouse.

But the good thing is that you participated in the experiment and have the ability to transform.

The ball of light still emitted a voice without emotion, yet such words raised a huge wave in Joseph's heart.

"There are still many things you do not understand, and I will answer them for you."

"Earth, I mean the planet where you survive; it is so named in your program, and so far we have taken three samples, and you are the third."

After the light mass said this, two more light screen projections unfolded, of two human-like creatures.

"The one on the left is the first sample collection. Its number is 53667. According to its program, it comes from the Boa civilization. Their civilization is much more advanced compared to yours today. They are considered excellent programs even in the universe."

It was a human being less than one meter and three meters tall. It looked as unexceptional as any normal Joseph had ever seen, only the difference was that it had a third eye and an extremely tall nose.

"They are programmed to have high noses as a sign of goodness. It's just a shame that the program limits them to not being infinitely high."

"The Boa civilization was overthrown."

"The reason is that the virtual space controlled by sample 53667 was destroyed during the second fusion."

"In accordance with the criteria we set for the experiment, we executed the destruction of the Boa civilization."

The guide told us about the Boa civilization without a trace of emotion.

Joseph was silent for a long time before he thought in his head, "What was the standard of experiment you set?"

"Five fusions, the civilization that can be left after the end, proves that the procedure has some reference value, and we do not destroy the civilization."

"After the destruction of the Boa civilization, only less than 10,000 years later, the Earth once again had a new civilization, the Mud River civilization."

"On the right is sample 254776."

Again, unfortunately, their civilization was similarly overthrown, and the end was ushered in at the first fusion; a program with empty power and insufficient intelligence is not the program we need."

Joseph looked at the tall muddied man, speechless.

Now it's your turn. What name will you give to your civilization? If you overthrow it, at least I will give information for future samples. "

"We..." (Joseph was silent for a long time before he spoke), "are human civilization!"

"Entry is complete."
