Chapter 173: A Happy Dinner Time, What Exactly Was Room 201? (2) End
- Han Kain “From a business perspective?”
It felt strange to hear a business-related concept in a situation as far removed from business as possible.
Even Songee, who had been feeling nauseous earlier, couldn’t resist her curiosity and started paying attention.
Noona began her explanation again, “I think the behavior of the Eye of Zero Dimension is very similar to that of a ‘fish farmer’. The ocean seems almost infinitely vast, filled with countless fish. But even if there are many fish, if humans keep catching and eating them endlessly, eventually there won’t be any left, not even the young ones. So, humans started ‘fisheries resource management’.”
“Fisheries resource management…”
“Now, think from the perspective of the Eye of Zero Dimension. Sure, it could descend to Earth and toy with 8 billion humans, but considering the sheer madness and infinite magic of the evil god, how long do you think Earth would last if it did that? Would it even last a year? The Eye of Zero Dimension likely restrained itself since it understood such a concept. It’s like a long-term plan to keep feeding off Earth for hundreds or even thousands of years.”
Ahri sighed and responded, “So, according to your reasoning, the Chief Researcher was like a talking mackerel offering a proposal to the fish farmer. Something like, ‘We’ll set up a fish farm ourselves, so you can feed off us for centuries, but manage the fisheries resources, please.’”
“Exactly. The Eye of Zero Dimension accepted that proposal. What could be better? The problem with killing all the mackerel is that they might go extinct, but managing them to prevent extinction is also a hassle. Then, along comes a talking mackerel offering to manage the fish farm itself. I think the evil god must have been overjoyed.”
“Let’s assume the Eye of Zero Dimension restrained itself for that reason. But why did the survival of humanity, thanks to fisheries resource management, only score 30 points?”
