"What is this?"
Their eyes widened, staring blankly at the scene.
The dark clouds parted, and sunlight streamed down?
This scene, akin to a divine miracle, made the audience swallow several times.
The scene was incredibly real, so real that they felt the vast power of heaven and earth.
"Putting aside everything else, even in a movie, this couldn't be a coincidence, right?" someone asked hesitantly.
"Does it look like it? That strange wind just now could still be explained away as a random weather phenomenon, but this miraculous celestial phenomenon now..."
"And the spot where the sunlight is falling, isn't it a bit too coincidental?"
"Are you saying?"
"Exactly! It's definitely that unknown entity that made a move!"
"It couldn't possibly be a natural phenomenon, right? That coincidental? I don't believe it!"
Those who already had a looming suspicion nodded at these words.
They believed this was absolutely not a coincidence!
And no matter how they looked at it, only that God could achieve this scene.
"What incredible power, this kind of power to control the weather..." someone exclaimed in awe.
"If this is real, it's hard to imagine what kind of power that God possesses. What we're seeing now already exceeds our understanding!"
A young man in his twenties chimed in from below, "What if this event actually happened? Then..."
After a moment of silence, he continued, "Before, when Adan and the others were praying, the words of praise they spoke, I thought it was their ignorance and lack of knowledge, but now that I see this..."
"Could it be that we are too self-important and arrogant?"
"Humans think they've conquered nature, stand at the pinnacle of the world, and deny all mysteries, but... is this world not what we thought it was?"
"Could it be... there really is a God! And He… has been watching us all along!"
Hiss…
Over a billion viewers felt their scalps tingle.
If it had been at the beginning, they might have just laughed it off when faced with such words, but now they couldn't laugh. Instead, they felt a chill crawl up their spines.
Could it be... there really was a God... watching them?
"Yes, I am watching you, watching you imagine things, watching you slander me." Su Qi said blankly.
These remarks made his expression grow increasingly vacant.
He muttered to himself, "I can't control the weather, nor do I have any great power, and you are not at all self-important or arrogant."
"You were right at the beginning, it really was just a natural phenomenon! Please stop imagining things!"
Su Qi's mouth twitched.
The scene continued, and Habil's surprise, along with Gobil's gloomy and jealous expression, were clearly observed by everyone.
This is bad!
As expected, the system's prompt confirmed their suspicions in the next second.
[Gobil fell into jealousy. He felt that it was because of his younger brother that his sacrifice was not chosen by God. At the same time, he felt his status was threatened.]
[For the past two hundred years, the tribe had subtly divided into two factions, centered around these two brothers.]
[One faction believed that God did not care about sacrifices and that there was no need to waste too many resources on offerings, as long as the intention was there.]
[The other faction believed that God was supreme and that their current lives were all thanks to God. They should not act in a way that disrespected God and should offer the best sacrifices to please God.]
[However, at this moment, as God responded, this balance was about to be broken.]
Later, seeing Gobil's jealous expression and his invitation for Habil to go to the fields, everyone was shocked.
Inside a grand cathedral.
Father Charlie watched the movie while sitting in a chair, with a group of priests he had summoned behind him.
The events that had unfolded so far had already reminded some people of something.
"Gobil... Habil... Cain, Abel? And the sacrifice just now..."
"Isn't this exactly what's recorded in the Bible?" a priest named Mark exclaimed excitedly.
Does that mean Habil will be killed by Gobil next?
As expected...
Under the watchful eyes of netizens and themselves, Gobil roared with jealousy, "Why, why would God choose your sacrifice!"
"Brother, what's wrong?" Habil asked, utterly bewildered.
As Gobil angrily knocked Habil down, he then raised a stone and brought it down.
Bang!
Blood splattered...
"Ah!"
The audience cried out in alarm.
"Oh my god, you scared me to death, someone actually died!"
Unlike other movies, the scenes in this film terrified them with their realism.
Habil's dying expressions made their hair stand on end.
Boom, boom, boom!
Thunder flashed across the sky, as if God was enraged.
"No, no, it's not my fault, God, I didn't mean to kill him!"
Gobil screamed, clutching his head, and ran wildly in terror.
Let alone him, the netizens felt a bit intimidated by the thunder.
"Is God angry?"
Su Qi: "..."
I really didn't!
The scene shifted to Adan.
He was stunned at first, then rushed out with a look of shocked anger. Some netizens were confused, not understanding what was wrong with Adan, though some had already formed a guess.
They watched as Adan stormed into Gobil's house and directly questioned him, then saw Gobil frantically lie.
"Your brother's blood is all over the floor, he's wailing, accusing you of killing him!"
Adan said sadly.
"No, no! I didn't!"
Gobil was completely panicked.
Adan said blankly, "God revealed everything to me."
"God... God knows..."
"Heh, that's right... how could the God who knows everything not know..."
Gobil gave a bitter laugh, his expression breaking down.
As expected!
The netizens looked surprised.
It really was God!
Gobil's words made them recall their earlier speculations. Could there really be a God who had been observing them all along?
Everyone shivered.
Rumble, lightning flashed across the horizon.
The thunder in their ears grew louder, as if God was furious, and the wind and rain outside intensified, as if God was heartbroken.
Gobil being driven away didn't surprise anyone. Most people felt it was within reason.
The scenery before them blurred, and things changed rapidly.
The prompt sound continued.
[Time flowed rapidly, and another three hundred years passed quickly.]
[Adan's tribe grew stronger and stronger, but in contrast, his life was nearing its end.]
Adan lay on the wooden bed, gasping for breath. This scene stunned the netizens.
"He's going to die?"
"It feels like just yesterday Adan picked the Forbidden Fruit, and now he's about to die so soon?"
Everyone felt the swift passage of time, and at the same time, the fear of death was stirred in their hearts.
Su Qi: "..."
Adan picking the Forbidden Fruit, wasn't that broadcasted just yesterday?
The scene continued.
"Who in this world doesn't die?"
Facing the cries of his descendants, Adan sighed.
[For hundreds of years, Adan had observed plants, animals, and people, and had long realized that he would eventually die, and had long accepted this fact.]
"Everything in this world has a beginning and an end; this is decreed by God, and no one can escape it..."
"Who can live forever, except God?" Adan murmured.
Before long, he passed away...
As he passed away, the netizens fell into a daze.
Adan's last words also left them with complex feelings.
At this moment, Brave Niu Niu spoke, "Does everything that begins also have an end?"
"Isn't this just cyclical?"
"Humans have life cycles, civilizations do, and even stars cannot escape this fate."
"Could it be that all of this was predetermined by some unseen force?"
"An eternal God?"
This statement stunned many, filling them with a sense of dread.
Back in his hometown, Su Qi's mouth twitched. Brave Niu Niu really knew how to stir up trouble.
Then, Hawa's death further weighed on their hearts.
[Another six years have passed…]
A small town appeared before their eyes.
[Three hundred years ago, Gobil came here and built a city.]
"Father, where are you going?"
Gobil stroked his wrinkled face, looked up at the sky, and muttered to himself, "Yidelis, so many years have passed, I've thought about so much."
Yidelis looked at his father in confusion, unsure what he meant.
Gobil continued to murmur, "I shouldn't have done that back then…"
Perhaps sensing his time was short, he had gained much clarity.
"I'm sorry, Habil. I'm sorry, Father. All these years, I've gained nothing but pain…"
"…I don't even dare to perform sacrifices to God…"
"God will surely not forgive the mistakes I've made…"
He even realized that the reason God didn't accept sacrifices back then was definitely not Habil's fault, but because God already knew his actions.
He had thought God wouldn't know about those small tricks, but how could God not know?
Even if his prepared sacrifices were casual, if he had acted righteously, how could God have refused them?
But he had pushed all blame onto his younger brother, blinded by jealousy, and committed that terrible act…
[After that day, Gobil disappeared and never reappeared…]
The prompt continued.
[Time flew by, and soon fifteen hundred years passed.]
The scenery flashed by rapidly, and the world changed in the blink of an eye!
[Humans multiplied and spread across the land…]
Clusters of people appeared in the footage, their numbers astonishing the netizens, but what surprised them even more was the passage of time.
"Fifteen hundred years?!"
"This time skip is too fast! Damn!"
At the same time, some people had a bad feeling.
Could this movie be ending soon?
Just as they were thinking this, a scene rendered everyone speechless.
Whether it was Professor Chen or Director Lu, shock was evident on all their faces.
The camera shifted, and it actually switched to space!
Then, they witnessed something astonishing.
In space, a long, black, unidentified flying object slowly approached and finally hovered at the edge of the atmosphere.
A spaceship!
Aliens!
Everyone's eyes widened, staring in awe at the sleek, technologically advanced unidentified flying object.
"Holy shit! Holy shit!"
"Alien spaceship?!"
"How could something like this appear?"
Are aliens visiting Earth?
California, USA.
The host's hand trembled, and the microphone slipped from his grasp, falling to the ground.
But at that moment, no one paid it any mind, as they were all staring, dumbfounded, at the spacecraft.
At the prehistoric ruins site.
"This..."
Professor Chen took a deep breath, his face filled with shock.
The people around him weren't much better off.
That's an alien civilization's spaceship, right?
What's its purpose for coming to Earth?
How will it treat humanity?
This string of questions kept popping into the minds of over a billion people.
However, just as they were shocked and curious, wanting to see what would happen next.
The movie screen suddenly went black and ended...
The comment section completely exploded.
"Holy crap! What happens next?"
"It cut off again? Damn it!"
"Go die!"
"Die for me, crawl, crawl, crawl!"
"F*ck!"
Voices of profanity erupted all over the world, accompanied by the sounds of tables and keyboards being smashed.
At the prehistoric ruins site.
Professor Chen took a deep breath, his hand trembling, almost throwing his computer.
Zhang Hao and dozens of others beside him weren't doing any better; they were all incredibly angry.
But no matter how angry they were, they couldn't do anything about the Origin Net in the end.
"Sigh, we'll just have to wait..."
Professor Chen felt like he had aged several years, his heart condition almost acting up.
Let alone them being curious, Su Qi, who was back in his hometown, was also very puzzled.
He shook his head and sighed, "Let's wait until tomorrow."
Only in the next simulation would he know what that thing was all about.
Su Qi got up from his chair, stretched his stiff body, and after thinking for a moment, decided to go out for some activity.
Not long after he left his room, the sound of barking erupted.
A yellow Shiba Inu, wagging its tail frantically, rushed out from the yard.
"Woof woof woof~"
It ran in circles around Su Qi, sticking out its tongue and trying to lick him, fully embodying what a "lick dog" was.
"Good boy, Da Huang, I'll get you something to eat later."
After patting Da Huang's round head, Su Qi opened the main door.
The dazzling sunlight shone in, warm and comfortable.
Su Qi took Da Huang out for a stroll.
Although this was the countryside, everywhere he looked, there were newly built, brand-new houses.
Not long after they started walking, some neighbors greeted him.
"Little Su, out for a stroll?" asked an old lady with graying hair.
Su Qi responded with a hum and a nod.
The old Mrs. Chen was already used to his quiet nature. Looking at his retreating back, she couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.
"What a shame, such a good kid, and he got cancer. What can be done now? Alas..."
A middle-aged man nearby, who didn't know Su Qi, couldn't help but cast a sympathetic glance at Su Qi's back.
So young, what a pity!
Su Qi was already accustomed to those gazes. After strolling around, he took Da Huang back home.
Back in his room, he locked the door and began to ponder, recalling the items he obtained after the simulation ended.
