Why the cost of those blocks are so high ? Why we are creating those blocks ? What they are going to do with them ?

Because Bitcoin is a cryptoconcurrency and to function it needs blocks in which it can pack transactions to verify them and to keep the blockchain moving.
If people don't mine the chain stops.
