Paladin of Asgard Chapter 340: 【Thanos’ plan】
"Before the resources are exhausted, we take the initiative to wipe out part of the population." Thanos said.
"What!" Many people turned pale with shock.
One person even jumped up against the case and scolded angrily: "Slaughter your own people, Thanos, are you kidding?"
Thanos looked at him: "So what's your opinion? If we don't take the initiative to reduce the population, we will die within a hundred years, and not only some of us will die, but all of us."
The man was not to be outdone: "No matter what, we can't swing the butcher knife at our own people!"
"So you don't have any ideas?" Thanos said.
The man froze.
Thanos suddenly snorted coldly: "Hmph, don't criticize without suggestions, otherwise you will only appear to be stupid."
"You say I'm stupid?" the man asked angrily.
"Yes." Thanos admitted bluntly, while staring at him coldly.
"You!"
Kronos knocked on the table: "Silence."
The hall finally returned to a little quiet, but someone still said: "I don't agree with such a proposal, it's just ridiculous."
Cronos also said: "Thanos, your proposal just now is indeed ill-considered..."
"Does this need to be considered?" Thanos asked unconvinced, "Total extinction and partial extinction, does anyone want to choose the former?"
He looked around and said, "Of course you can refute my proposal, but you should use better proposals to refute, instead of such childish and pointless proposals as "this is too cruel" and "simply absurd". Worth complaining about. "
One hesitantly said: "We can moderate the use of resources..."
"We are already very restrained." Thanos looked at him, "Of course everyone sitting here doesn't feel it, but the lives of most people have already hovered at the line of food and clothing."
"No matter how economical the current situation is, it will not help. The eternal protoss can only destroy part of the population first."
Kronos looked at him: "Which tribe do you plan to destroy?"
"Random." Thanos said, "I designed a plan that can ensure the fairness of the whole process, and everyone will decide life and death with an equal probability."
"...The people chosen by death can die peacefully by taking medicine, instead of being brutally killed by famine and war in the future, and our ethnic group can continue. The only solution."
Dozens of people looked at each other without speaking.
Thanos looked at Kronos: "Grandfather?"
Kronos was silent for a moment, but finally shook his head: "Let's control the resources first... Starting today, everyone in the whole family will distribute living supplies according to the minimum standard."
"Okay, everyone go back."
After that, he got up first and left the hall, and everyone dispersed, leaving Thanos alone.
Thanos sat alone in the room, silent for a long time, until the evening, and finally he could only leave silently.
The hall is still resplendent and resplendent, but as soon as you come out, you can see all kinds of dilapidated scenes within a short walk.
Buildings in disrepair, dilapidated roads and bridges... and the dark sky as the background of all these, it is almost a scene of the end of the world.
In the distant horizon, a round of red sun slowly set, making the sky darker and darker.
"Thanos."
Thanos turned his head when he heard the sound, and then showed a rare smile: "Cecila, long time no see."
Behind him was a beautiful woman with short black hair. She walked over and asked with a smile, "Did you go to the meeting just now? What did you talk about?"
Thanos sighed: "No, nothing was discussed, there was no progress, they rejected my plan."
"What's your plan?" Secira asked.
Thanos said slowly: "At most one or two hundred years later, Titan's resources will be exhausted. The only thing we can do now is to avoid the worst outcome and eliminate part of the population in advance to ensure that the eternal gods will not be destroyed. As for extinction, this is exactly my plan."
Cherra was silent.
Thanos waited for a few seconds, and then couldn't help but look directly at her face, but saw expressions similar to those of most people in the hall before.
This made him clenched his fists, deeply disappointed and a little angry: "Don't you agree with my plan?"
"This...is too cruel." Cecila lowered her head and said.
Her words made Thanos' face twitch, and it took him a long time to regain his composure.
Thanos took a deep breath: "There is a similar problem in the vast majority of civilizations in the universe, generally known as the "trolley problem". "
"The trolley problem, what do you mean?" Cecila obviously hadn't heard of it.
Thanos continued: "There was a trolley running along the track, and its control device failed, so it could only turn, but could not stop."
"At this time, there are two tracks in front of this tram. There are five people on one track and only one person on the other track. As a driver, will you choose to crash into those five people, or will you choose Hit that person?"
Cexila frowned upon hearing this, lost in thought.
But Thanos replied for her: "There is no doubt that everyone will choose to sacrifice that one person to save those five people... Isn't the plan I proposed exactly this?"
"No." As a result, Cecila shook her head.
Thanos stops and looks at her in bewilderment.
Cecila also stopped, and only heard her say: "It seems to be like this, but what if it is another scene?"
Thanos: "What scene?"
Cehira said: "There are five dying patients in the ward, one needs a heart transplant, one needs a lung transplant, one needs a liver transplant, one needs a kidney transplant, and one needs a spleen transplant."
"Just at this time ~IndoMTL.com~ a healthy person passed by the ward. If you were a doctor, would you choose to sacrifice all the organs of this person to save the five people in the ward?"
Thanos was stunned, and lowered his head to think for a few seconds, but his brows did not relax, but he was a little flustered: "No, no, Cecila, you must have secretly changed some concepts, let me think about it..."
Cecila didn't give him time to think, and then said: "Thanos, you have admirable courage and wisdom. You were once my idol, but I have to say, there are some things you don't know. Understood."
Thanos looked at her, opened his mouth as if to say something, but he couldn't speak for a long time, as if petrified.
"I still have things to do, I'm leaving first." Cecila said goodbye to him immediately, turned around and left in a hurry, disappearing into the night.
Looking at her disappearing back, Thanos clenched his fists and roared angrily.
"Boom!" A stone pillar beside him was destroyed by him, and the gravel flew.
"This is the only solution!"
