Chapter 11 The Twist

This day, Oliver does not know how to come, from landing on the moon, to kill the mob, to hunt Calvin ... and finally, to become Calvin's "Son of God"?

This process is too unbelievable, but it actually happened, so Oliver is difficult to accept for a while.

He found himself in a trap.

Calvin, a madman, stubbornly believed that he was the "Son of God" who would lead all mankind to a new life, and that everything he had done on the moon all these years was for this "game" today!

Three years ago, Calvin began to propagate the "Earth destruction theory" on the moon base, with almost the same content as before, but with some slight changes. He claimed, "The Earth will eventually be destroyed, and the Moon will be the last land of joy, when the Son of God will guide everyone to a new life."

At first, few people believed him, because the moon base was mostly scientific and technological workers, highly educated, who scoffed at such cult-like claims.

How could the Earth be destroyed if it was fine? Its current lifespan is 4.6 billion years, according to scientific speculation, at least another 2 billion years of existence. 2 billion years, ah, too long, as for the Earth to explode, the next life of the next life can not see it ...

But it must be said that Calvin is a very capable person, he has some of his own small means, coupled with a fairly good eloquence, over time, finally fooled a small group of people, which has death row inmates, technical staff, and even a part of the security forces of the military.

This part of the people formed a guild, called the "Moon Club", they are usually considered peaceful, work hard, the only requirement is that they hope the Moon Base management can let them stay on the moon forever.

The salary of the Moon Base is extremely high, the average skilled worker is around 300,000 dollars a year, and the contract is usually signed for three years. But even so, except for those who must stay on death row, few people can do the full three years.

You know, this is a ghost place ah, no blue sky, no green mountains, no green water, no food, wine and beauty, all day to eat some high-calorie compressed food ... general people do a year and a half, it is easy to produce depression and other mental illness, so apply to escape back to Earth.

However, the purpose of the "Moon Club" requires people to stay on the moon for a long time! This is great! Anyway, the "Moon Club" is not substantially bad, so the management of the Moon Base acquiesced to the existence of the "Moon Club", and even vaguely encouraged its development.

Why? Because the "Moon Club" can keep people on the moon ah! After all, the base has alien ships, the perfect vegetation and other ulterior motives, of course, the speed of movement of personnel is the smaller the better.

Communication with the Earth is very expensive, entertainment is scarce, and humans are social creatures, they need to socialize with each other, so there are many organizations and guilds, "soccer club", "basketball club" and other things, every day there will be a few more, a few less If you have a "moon club", it's not a big deal.

As for the "Moon Club" said "the Earth will eventually be destroyed, the moon will be the last happy land", huh ... whether you believe it or not, those ruling class certainly do not believe it.

Thanks to this, the moon will gradually grow, and the fame gradually spread. Some people believed it, but more people scoffed at it, thinking it was a deliberate attempt by the base management, who, they thought, were a bunch of cannibals who wanted to keep them working on the moon forever ...

Anyway, no matter what they think, Calvin's purpose is achieved, everyone has heard the prophecy of the "destruction of the Earth", are aware of the existence of the "Son of God", are just put into a laugh, as a joke.

But it does not matter, they just know about it, Calvin's purpose even if achieved.

Then, immediately after, the climax happened, a few days before, the Earth really exploded!

The internal members of the Moon Society had already been brainwashed, they instantly regarded Calvin as a god, it was because they stayed on the Moon, to save a life ah! A few of the fanatics, members of the vigilantes, had poisoned the food of the soldiers' ranks at Calvin's behest.

In the three days that followed, Calvin screwed a large number of base leaders and took a large number of hostages, the 20,000 people sitting in the synagogue. He announced to everyone the information of the perfect vegetation and alien spacecraft, and insisted that mankind has not yet reached the most desperate moment, "the son of God" will lead mankind to find a way out ...

The cause and effect of what happened is this ... Then, the Son of God that Calvin identified came, and that was - Oliver!

At this time, Oliver and Calvin both have walked into the lobby. More than 20,000 people were sitting in unison inside the lobby, and the screen in front of them was still playing something.

Their searing gaze made him shudder, there was no noise, no clamor, it was a desire for survival, a yearning for the future. Oliver could even see a hope contained in their eyes ...

The reason is simple, in the face of this catastrophe, if there really is a savior, why not believe in it?

Humans are the top of the earth's biological chain, but encounter this cosmic level of disaster, but seems so fragile and small. In front of the vastness of the universe, humans are really worse than an ant. Even if some people do not believe what Calvin said, they subconsciously began to persuade themselves to believe.

Perhaps the influence of some American blockbusters, like what "Terminator", "Star Wars" and so on, when the end comes, if there really is a "savior" existence, the chances of human survival is always greater.

This is the hope ... screen over and over again played Oliver's life experience, excellent moral and superior skills, completely beyond the human speed and skills, all the test "son of God" this identity!

He finally understood why Calvin had to play "hide-and-seek" with himself, this is not a psychotic ... but to live broadcast their own skills to the masses ah! This is to give the masses brainwashing ah!

He finally knew why Wade's tone was so strange. The special forces stood at the very back, with strange eyes and a hint of creepiness, and James was even laughing maniacally there.

Oliver has a kind of duck-like feeling, now there are mouths can not say, on the one hand, everyone has completely believe in what the "son of God", on the other hand, he really can not deny this identity.

The perfect vegetation, superhuman, are real, the more critical is - hope, in such moments, he can not blindly destroy the hope of people's hearts ... whether willing or not, he suddenly understood, this scene must be played with a hard head.

He suddenly stepped forward and saluted everyone, "I am Oliver, the third brigade of the Earth Alliance, captain of the first special forces, with the rank of captain. I don't know anything about the Son of God, nor do I believe in this statement, I only know that, in the vast universe, we humans will be able to survive!"
