Of course, they might also die from unknown dangers in the universe.bender
But theyre not afraid of death and are willing to sleep for a thousand years, both for themselves and to expand humanitys territory.
With their lofty goals and ambitions,
they just couldnt understand why, with conditions so ripe, the World Governnt still hadnt taken that first step.
Among those holding this ideology were descendants of the extrely wealthy who were even willing to build spaceships out of their own pockets, just wanting to go out and see the world within their lifeti.
But the World Governnt put a stop to this behavior, leaving everyone helpless.
The Escape faction had its own scientific ideology, and thus a mass base.
Supported by various companies, both openly and secretly, they now had an economic foundation, so they occasionally created small, harmless incidents. Well Lion, I think if the Escape faction wants to leave, just let them go. Its not a big deal. Everyone has the right to choose freely, right? Daniel Thompsons face suddenly beca very solemn, No, they cant leave. Ah? Why?
Harrison Clark asked again.
Daniel Thompson thought for a mont, You wait, there are still seven minutes until we reach our destination. Ill report to the higher-ups, and its ti for you to know so information.
Harrison Clark imdiately perked up.
Although he had already guessed many answers based on his own deductions, and had heard the leaders desperate speech at the last mont, he had never received a comprehensive explanation about the matter from an official perspective.
Well, the higher-ups have approved.
Im listening.
Harrison Clark, humanity has no future.
Daniel Thompsons tone suddenly beca sowhat choked.
Harrison Clark: Oh, I know.
Daniel Thompsons storytelling mindset almost collapsed instantly. Damn it! Why is he so calm? Acting like he already knew. What the hell! Forget it, maybe hes just naturally thick-skinned.
Do you know why, five hundred years ago, the countries of the world suddenly put down their disputes and established the World Governnt?
Harrison Clark asked back, Because they knew of the enemys imminent arrival?
Daniel Thompson suddenly lost interest in talking, finding no sense of achievent in telling the story to him.
Yes, and the day of destruction is precisely one year away.
Um why so precise?
Im not qualified to know the specific reason, but this is beyond doubt. Because the evidence is right there.
Daniel Thompson pointed at the sky.
Harrison Clark turned his head, looked through the ti machines circular window, and stared at the sky, Theres nothing in the sky, just blue sky and white clouds.
No, its further.
Outer space?
Yes! Since five hundred years ago, our entire Solar System has been sealed off by alien civilizations, using technology we cant comprehend, or maybe magic, to construct a barrier.
Harrison Clark was genuinely surprised this ti.
According to the scope of the solar gravity, the radius of the Solar System is 2 light-years.
This ant that an unknown alien civilization had created a barrier with a radius of two light-years, completely sealing off the entire Solar System! No wonder, under the starry sky a thousand years later, the edges of most stars appeared to have a faint blue halo.
At first, he thought that the air quality on Earth had improved in a thousand years, altering the appearance of the starry sky.
Now it turns out that the entire Solar System has been enveloped!
The light from distant stars penetrated the barrier, causing diffraction, creating those faint blue light and shadow effects.
He suddenly felt utterly hopeless.
A barrier with a radius of two light-years, what the hell is going on?!
Does it have to be so extravagant?!
What level of technological advancent can achieve this?!
Just what kind of enemy is humanity facing?!
Harrison Clarks mindset collapsed.
For these five hundred years, under what kind of desperate emotions had the inford maintained their steadfast determination and made such resolute efforts?
Harrison Clark took about three minutes to calm himself down, regaining his ability to think. The eight planets of the Solar System, along with most of the mam celestial bodies, lie on a plane. So is the barrier that seals us saucer-shaped?
Daniel Thompson shook his head, No, its a sphere, a perfect sphere. A more perfect circle than anything humanity has ever created, a true circle, rounder than a drop of water floating in space.
But that defies the principle of gravity.
Daniel Thompson sighed, Yes, this completely defies the theoretical foundation we humans have mastered, and the foundation of our physics.
Thats why our scientists have been trying to self-substantiate but still cant overco this circle. The Escape faction thinks the World Governnt has done nothing, but they dont know that over the past five hundred years, weve sent out countless unmanned or manned spaceships, which were disintegrated into nothingness the mont they crossed the barrier. No matter how the Escape faction flies out on their own, theyll only die unclear deaths, utterly worthless.
Harrison Clark slumped into his chair, looking lost.
Kid, whats the matter? Are you already feeling defeated?
Daniel Thompson smirked.
Yeah, theres no hope in sight.
In fact, Harrison Clark knew more about the outco.
Regardless of the sphere that enveloped the Solar System or the chain explosion that wiped out a huge fleet when the end ca, both were beyond the limits of his imagination.
So the situation he faced was genuinely dark and desperate.
Because he had already experienced the end of civilization three tis, he was more desperate than anyone else.
Yes, everyone who knows about this matter sees no hope. But even if we give up, nothing will change, and the other party has set a final judgnt day, so theres no chance of them sparing us out of compassion. Since were going to die either way, why not die standing while struggling rather than die kneeling in despair?
The universe has a mory, and it will rember that we humans have been fighting until the very last mont and never stopped moving forward, even if that struggle is futile!
At this mont, Daniel Thompson finally said what he had always wanted to say to Harrison Clark.
Harrison Clark fell silent, pondered for a long ti, Lion, what a great literary talent you have.
Cough, its not my original.
Whose original?
ItS from the composer nad Harrison Clark from a thousand years ago, who had the sa na as you. On his deathbed, he still wanted to break through and create new music. Of course, he didnt succeed. People didnt understand why he persisted until he died, so they asked the reason for his persistence. Thats how he answered. Its his last words.
Harrison Clark widened his eyes.
And smiled bitterly.
Really? I must be amazing then, I didnt even know.
So, in this tiline,
Even if I dont have this current understanding, according to the personality I ford at that ti, I still struggled to the end as a composer?
Even if my mind was filled with thoughts of plagiarizing music, by the ti I was about to die, I still refused to give up?
