When they suddenly heard the concept of "escape velocity of human lifespan", many people could not understand it and subconsciously thought of the concept of escape in astrophysics.
However, after listening to Chen Chen's explanation, many people came to a sudden realization —
That was right. Using the world's most cutting-edge medical technology to extend one's lifespan and then breaking through again during the extended lifespan. Relying on such means to escape from the clutches of death again and again, what else could it be other than escape?
If medical technology could reach this level without interruption, then did it not mean that...
At this moment, everyone was a little restless. At the same time, they thought of an idea in their hearts, an idea that they only dared to think of in their dreams...
Chen Chen did not immediately bring up that idea. Instead, he changed the topic. "In fact, with the current level of medical technology, a policy similar to 'mankind anti-aging' can also be implemented in thirty to sixty years because it's a general trend."
"Just like how humans must develop controllable nuclear fusion in order to pursue more efficient energy, the medical revolution triggered by the pursuit of longevity is also a general trend of human society, a trend that no one can stop!
"Only..."
Chen Chen suddenly lowered his voice. "At that time, how old will you all be? Who here can guarantee that they can live until the era of the policy is initiated? "
Everyone was suddenly speechless.
Among the people present, the average age was above 40. Although this age was not considered old, it was not young either. Not many people dared to guarantee that they could live for another 30 years. They were waiting for the policy that might or might not appear at all.
"Then, may I ask..."
Leo finally could not help but ask, "How can you be sure that the 'escape plan' will succeed? What if after a few rounds of 'escape', technology hits a bottleneck and we can't wait until the end of our lives to see new medical technology? What should we do then?"
"I'm sorry, I can't make any guarantees."
Chen Chen spread his hands when he heard this and put on a serious and sincere expression. "There's no Einstein in God's Forbidden Zone, or rather, even Einstein can't make any guarantees for you. All we can do is do our best to improve the probability of this' plan ', that's all."
Leo suddenly fell silent.
Although they were not satisfied with this answer, everyone knew that this was an indisputable fact.
If this young man in front of them told them that he had a way to ensure that technology could continue to advance forever, then this person's credibility would be greatly reduced.
"God's Forbidden Zone is an organization dedicated to the mankind anti-aging project..."
Chen Chen continued. "We can't guarantee that you'll live forever, but we can assure you that all of our technology and all of our funds will be dedicated to extending the lifespan of mankind. We'll do our best!"
With that, Chen Chen extended his right hand and made an invitation. "Therefore, we sincerely invite you to join us. Although the chances are slim, if you're willing to believe me, let's start the era of mankind's anti-aging together!"
…
Although Chen Chen's promise was indeed very tempting, there was no one present who was not a shrewd person. Every strand of hair on their head was empty. Naturally, they would not be persuaded by a few words from Chen Chen.
The only thing that could make them make up their minds was the experimental evidence.
Next, Qian Wenhuan brought everyone to tour the laboratories in detail, including the 33 black elders.
Some families even brought in biological experts to extract the hair, epidermal cells, and other extracts on the spot for further examination.
Of course, Chen Chen would not stop these actions. He even sent experts to assist them and provide them with clean medical equipment.
After confirming that the technology mentioned by Chen Chen was real and not just empty promises, the representatives of many families finally made up their minds to persuade their families to join God's Forbidden Zone after they returned.
After all, this organization did not have any political stance. Whether they joined or not would not affect the families themselves.
In addition, God's Forbidden Zone was also a communication platform, which was equivalent to connecting the eleven families present with each other.
With this relationship, if they encountered difficulties, these families could also further reach cooperation. They could also directly issue missions in God's Forbidden Zone to seek help from families who were more skilled in this field.
The obligation of God's Forbidden Zone was that after these families joined, the immediate members of the family could receive unreserved treatment from God's Forbidden Zone at any time.
What these people needed to do was to provide assistance to the organization of God's Forbidden Zone as much as they could when they needed it.
Simply put, God's Forbidden Zone and these families were more like a loose alliance of mutual assistance. There was not much binding contract. Even if God's Forbidden Zone collapsed due to some incident, these families would not be implicated.
The only thing that everyone found harsh was the joining fee.
According to the contract proposed by God's Forbidden Zone, if the eleven families present wanted to obtain apostle status, they would need to pay a joining fee of one billion U.S. dollars. Moreover, it was not permanent.
One billion U.S. dollars was not a small number.
Although these families easily had tens of billions of assets, some even hundreds of billions, most of these were fixed assets and shares. The actual usable liquidity was often only a few tenths.
After paying one billion U.S. dollars, they could obtain a ten-year apprenticeship in God's Forbidden Zone. The fee could be renewed after the expiration. Of course, they could also choose not to renew.
If they refused to renew the fee, they would automatically be downgraded to Alpha-level. The Alpha-level was permanent and the medical treatment they received was exactly the same as an apostle. The only thing they lacked was authority in God's Forbidden Zone.
Of course, any family could choose to withdraw from God's Forbidden Zone at any time. This was completely free.
The apostle status, also known as the apostles, was the Twelve Disciple Council of God's Forbidden Zone. Families with apostle status had great rights in God's Forbidden Zone, including access to the information of low-level members (of course, this was only what Chen Chen allowed them to see), issuing compulsory missions to Delta-level members, executing Delta-level members, and so on.
If they encountered some major decisions, the apostles could also take the initiative to apply for convening a Disciple Council to seek solutions.
In short, after some hesitation, three families finally signed the contract on the spot and were promoted to three of the twelve apostles of God's Forbidden Zone. The remaining families said that they would return to discuss with their families.
Of course, what these people knew about God's Forbidden Zone was just the tip of the iceberg. At least, they did not know about the existence of the God chip or the B.S.S. forces.
Moreover, although the apostles seemed to have great power, in fact, it was just a nominal position.
There was no need to let these families know about the other secrets of God's Forbidden Zone for the time being. When they got deeper into it, they would naturally discover the true horror of God's Forbidden Zone.
It was like boiling a frog in warm water. The more contact they had, God's Forbidden Zone could provide these families with many conveniences that ordinary people could not imagine.
For example, the convenience of purchasing information through information points, the ease with which the B.S.S. forces could easily assassinate their sworn enemies, and more and more medical technology that surpassed modern technology...
At that time, they would be completely tied to God's Forbidden Zone and would no longer be able to be independent...
