Julia groaned once more and lifted up her head to view what the Earth Keepers were going to show her next.
She saw fighters of each of the five destroyed civilizations. Of course, Julia was interested to know about these past civilizations on Earth. But the circumstances she was shown this…
After demonstration of the fighters’ deaths, the Earth Keepers showed one of the pictures of Earth’s destruction.
Asteroids were approaching from deep space in a continuous string to bomb the planet. Their silent, grave flight in space was turning into a roar, with explosions and howling, following all celestial rocks after they came into Earth’s atmosphere, up to their strike against the ground.
Hell was setting in all over Earth.
Blows followed one after another. Everything that could burn was burning. All woods were burning simultaneously, throughout the Earth.
Even objects which couldn’t burn, in principle, were burning.
There was no way out for living beings. Their only salvation was their quick death.
Suffering from burns, wounds and fractures, people and animals were writhing among dead bodies everywhere on the ground.
There was hardly a breath in the air – only clouds of smoke and dust in burning hot air.
Bodies, torn by a shock wave, were lying in pools of their own blood and excrement.
The ocean bottom became bare where asteroids fell, and turned into boiling lava in a split second.
One mile high waves seemed to stand still for some time, displaying fish and big sea animals, twisting with pain. They did not understand yet that body parts nearby were their own.
Finally, these still hills fell down on the melted ocean bottom with awful noise.
Following deafening cacophony of explosions, steam in the form of huge columns was rushing up into the sky, burning everything alive on its way.
Earthquakes were changing the Earth’s landscape in seconds. Where there were mountains, there was water everywhere; where there were seas and oceans, there were rocks and dry land.
Burnt birds were falling down; fish and sea animals became boiled.
The whole planet was turning into a hellish fiery vessel, cooking a horrible meal out of all beings that were living on the Earth…
Julia was stunned by the pictures she had seen. She was overburdened with events and information she had been given. A logical question, «What can I do about it?» was not left without response.
«Since the time of man’s access into space, Earth has become an object of careful attention on the part of the United Galaxy Civilization.
Earth’s people are doomed to exterminate themselves if they don’t get the knowledge of Galaxy civilizations.
People will test new weapons again and again, though they don’t understand what aftermath it can have.
You have already exploded super-power nuclear warheads, though you did not know for sure whether chain nuclear reaction would begin or not.
You have built a gigantic collider and switched it on in full production, though you don’t know whether black holes, which can take up everything, including the earth, are being formed or not.
You are becoming dangerous not only for yourselves, but for others, too.
Development on Earth will come to an end when such a weapon will be invented, made and tested, after which life on it will be impossible, even in a million years.
So, if we lose again, human civilization on Earth will be destroyed by large cosmic bodies from the asteroid belt.
