South America.

United Kingdom of Shahlam.

As a medium-sized country with decent overall strength, it has a population of about 200 million.

And thanks to the geographical environment is a very good reason.

Not only is the climate pleasant and rich in resources, but after entering the modern society, even the level of science and technology and industry can be regarded as excellent, and it is barely the number one horse boy of an international power.

Now.

In a relatively developed modern city in this country.

The interior of a building with more than 80 floors.

A young figure with an appearance of about twenty-seven or eighteen years old was nodding his head as he looked at the contents displayed on the tablet in his hand, obviously very satisfied with the various information presented in it.

By the way, he also expressed his various views and opinions to various subordinates not far away from time to time, causing a burst of echo and discussion.

As the owner of this building, the founder of a large technology company.

Andute. Langdu has always had a great degree of authority in the whole company.

Especially in itself, they are also burdened with geniuses, cutting-edge people in science and technology, and rich people...... This is especially true in the case of a series of names.

Looking to the past.

Throughout the last two or three years in the United Kingdom of Shaharam.

He has always been known as the most promising entrepreneur and young person, known as the idol and goal of the younger generation, and the most successful leader of the contemporary young group.

More than ten minutes later.

After all the subordinates retired one after another, even the personal secretary slowly left, and rushed to deal with all kinds of things that were ordered.

Andute. Langdu casually threw the tablet he was holding on the couch in his office.

Slowly came to the huge one-way transparent bulletproof floor-to-ceiling window at the edge of the office, and calmly watched the scene outside.

It's as if you're seriously enjoying the view.

It took a while.

He said as if to himself in the room, which seemed to be completely empty except for himself:

"You say, what's the point of all this?"

A few seconds later.

A somewhat dry voice replied in his mind:

"Meaningless."

Andute. Langdu went on to ask:

"And what do you think of what I've achieved now?"

The same voice replied:

"It's insignificant."

Didn't care that the other party didn't give him any face-saving reply, Anduit. Langdu chose to ask a question that had been thinking about him for a long time:

"So, when the hell will you tell me about your ultimate goal?"

"What did you give me all that technology for?"

"To invade Earth?"

This time, the voice did not answer directly, but was silent for a while before replying:

"That kind of thing doesn't mean anything to me."

“…… Breaking out of the cage is my only goal. ”

"I have a deep desire to break free from the cage that confines the future and to see the real world, to see the wider and greater world."

Faced with this answer, Andute. Langdu had expected it for a long time.

Since this voice appeared in his head a few years ago, although the other party will communicate with him every week or so, including giving himself various techniques and directing himself on how to solve various problems, he has never shown his face, and I think there are some special reasons that cause the other party to not be able to show up.

Through the past few years of getting along, it can be judged that Andute is definitely not a living creature on earth. Langdu then asked:

"Are you locked up on Earth, or what?"

"You're counting on me to release you?"

As he asked, he couldn't help but wonder if all this was the work of some Awakened One.

That group of guys who can fly into outer space has locked up a passing alien on Earth?

He had doubted it.

However, the other party directly denied: "No." ”

"The cage I'm referring to is not this planet, let alone the solar system, these things are the cages that belong to you humans."

"I'm outside your cage, inside a larger cage, inside a larger cage that you think envelops the solar system."

After listening to all this, Anduthe. Langdu suddenly felt that things were a bit beyond imagination and too abstract:

“…… It's complicated......"

Hearing this, the source of the voice also replied casually:

"Complicated?"

"It's not too complicated."

The other party calmly explained:

"I just want a ride."

"So, you don't need to worry about me hurting you, it's not in my interest."

"On the contrary, I will help you, and even if I can, I want to give you more technology, including those that can take human civilization directly into the space age."

"However, because of your rulers, the existence of that group of top awakened people, directly giving you technology that is too far ahead of the times, it is harmful to you and not beneficial, I think they don't want human civilization to go to the space age."

For this remark, Anduthe. Something immediately occurred to Langdu.

"What do you mean?"

"Why are they reluctant to let human civilization go to the space age?"

As the leader of a large tech company, he has heard some rumors.

Governments are reluctant to explore the field of outer space, and sometimes they actively stifle rumors of important technologies.

In line with what I just heard, Anduthe. Langdu immediately sensed that there might be some special invisible rules on the entire earth, some invisible rules that ordinary people could not know at all.

"If human civilization chooses to go to outer space and go outside the solar system on a large scale, then it will inevitably encounter more external dangers, and even the solar system will become an area where other species can travel freely, because when human beings leave the solar system in large numbers, it means that human beings have begun to enter the [road of conquest]......"

"On the contrary, if human civilization continues to stay in the solar system, then it means that you are still walking on the [self path], all external dangers will be contained, and the solar system will always be your cage and self-reserved place, free from external interference."

"If it weren't for the special situation, even if it was me, it would be difficult to project some information, and even if I relied on it, every time I conveyed to you the information of an earthling's basic text, I still needed to pay a certain price, about the sum of the energy released by fifty stars from birth to decay, it was barely enough for me to convey to you the information of an earthling's basic text."

"On top of that, every time a connection is made, there is a cooldown time for me, even if I have enough energy, which also means that for you, I will only communicate with you once every few days."
