above the sky

Chapter 515 Fortunately, there is still me (In short, there is still a sixth update, ask for a monthly pass!)

— standing on the top of the mountain.

The second prince's words echoed in Ian's ears.

——Standing on the top of the mountain, people are like ants, and they can't even see the existence of people, let alone their happiness and dreams.

——Standing on the top of the mountain, you can only see a city, a province, and a whole country.

——People who stand on the top of the mountain will become cold-blooded, and they will ruin a group of current people for an untouchable future.

——As long as you stand on the top of the mountain, everyone is a tyrant.

Mikael originally thought that Ian would refute his slightly cold-blooded words, or nodded silently to express his understanding - he could feel similar emotions, two complex and conflicting emotions echoed in Ian's heart, he The heart light body can sense such fluctuations.

However, in the end, after a short pause, Ian just asked in confusion: "Is the mountain of the imperial capital... so high?"

Ian was puzzled from the bottom of his heart.

The prince was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know whether to laugh or sigh: "No. Indeed, the top of the mountain is not high, but if you go up, there will be nothing."

"Everything that human beings can have is above the earth, and any higher heights are meaningless."

--wrong.

Ian thought so.

- that's not right.

——There is a lot of meaning above the sky, which is obviously so vast.

Everything that human beings have is definitely not only everything that can be seen on the top of the mountain... but also everything that can be seen when looking at the starry sky!
He couldn't deny that Mikhail's words were reasonable on the Terra continent, but with such powerful power, the fifth energy level that still checks and balances each other on the Terra continent, as well as the various forces that have reached the threshold of the interstellar society long ago. This kind of technology should not have made this land so miserable.

They shouldn't have killed each other with these technologies that can go to the starry sky, and shouldn't be so inward...

They can definitely go further...

But soon, the white-haired boy understood, or rather, recalled the reason.

He recalled that when he raised his head in the golden field, he saw the starless and dim, pitch-black, terrible sky like an abyss.

The emptiness cannot inspire any romance, fantasy and reverie in people, and cannot provide people with imagination, fascination and thinking.

There are no stars there.

Yes... Ian suddenly understood, he finally understood.

——The people of the world of Terra... grew up in a world without stars.

They never expect nor imagine the brilliance of the night sky.

They never wondered or thought about what was in the galaxy.

They don't feel that there is anything worth looking forward to and exploring in the high sky.

People in this world... have lost stars in their hearts.

Their highest point is just a mere mountain top.

That's it.

--so.

Ian thought.

——They are all prisoners wandering above the earth.

So... all the powerful people in this world are checking and balancing each other, using all their power in vain.

unless……

——A sixth energy level appears.

This is what Mikael really wanted to tell him when he came to see Ian this time.

He encouraged Ian's ambition and agreed with Ian's wisdom, but told him through various tactful methods not to care about ordinary people.

No, not right.

There was an extremely strong sadness in Mikael's heart, just as he said, he once walked on the border of the empire, met the poorest people, and did anything that any ordinary person would do-this The prince who hardly concealed his admiration for Inaiga II, like his grandfather, longed for the happiness of all mankind.

He cares about people.Whether it is an ordinary person or a sublimated person, he cares about these lives.

That's why he understood... just to make a few more bottles of medicine, just to develop some technologies, it's nothing more than to increase some already surplus productivity.Technology cannot change today's predicament.

For the world with the fifth energy level, for this land with extraordinary power, sublimated skills and spiritual power, just productivity and some technologies are meaningless at all.

The countries check and balance each other, and the major forces rely on each other to fight each other, just like a crab in a bucket, no one can climb out alone.

Obviously, there are already ways to make everyone in the world happy, and Terra has all the answers, but still because of people themselves, these answers cannot answer the question.

Only the most peak and most powerful sublimators can break this sad deadlock.

Enough to suppress the entire world... the black sun.

Ian's wisdom, in Mikael's view, even if it cannot become the fifth energy level, it can definitely accumulate nourishment and experience for future generations, so it must not be wasted——I want to completely let Terra Continent get To change, it is necessary to accumulate a path that can lead to the sixth energy level step by step in this way.

And, it's not just empires either.All other countries and major forces probably think the same way.

No matter who, no matter what path.

As long as there is... this bound land, and the people imprisoned in the starless realm, can move forward again.

After the second prince left, Ian was still sitting on the chair in the laboratory.His heart became a little heavy, but in the final analysis, the boy had already thought about everything Mikael told him.

The social problems here are countless times more complicated than those on Earth, and they are also countless times simpler... because the essence of all the problems will return to the gap between ordinary people and sublimated people.

And more fundamentally, human desires.

How to restrict human desires and maintain a huge order without being backlashed by it?This is an eternal subject.

"Indeed, now is not the time to use the identity of the first energy level on the surface to fight against a behemoth like the Alchemy Group. Mikael's advice in this regard is correct. Let's change the research direction first."

Standing up, Ian was going to continue to count the equipment in the laboratory: "I have to start planning for the territory, and I have to think about the future development plan."

"The study of the extreme domain must also be put on the agenda, the sixth energy level... Teacher's conjecture is just a conjecture. Although it does make me stronger, I am not completely sure that I can reach the sixth energy level if I complete all of it. Six levels."

"The sixth energy level is definitely not as complicated as the five extreme domains, but it is not as simple as it can be achieved as long as it is cultivated."

Thinking of this, Ian closed his eyes. He recorded a series of schedules in the silver chip, and then smiled.

"Interesting, a wasteland waiting to be developed. This is the challenge."

The white-haired boy laughed and said, "Yeah, how boring is this world? The powerhouses of the fifth energy level check and balance each other, and the major countries throw endless wealth and resources into the abyss of mutual confrontation and restriction. The civilization of the pre-epoch The cutting-edge technology of Terra and the sublimation skills that have almost reached the threshold of Terra will gradually stagnate, and even a little development will destroy civilization itself and drag the entire civilization system into the abyss."

"A world rotting in crisis and silence, a world where technology would in turn destroy civilization, a world without stars, a world where all souls are gravitationally bound."

"This world is really boring."

"Fortunately, there is me."

He stood up, with silver-blue fluorescence in his eyes: "I really want to thank Your Highness Mikael—he pointed out the real problem of this world for me."

"Not only the absolute power of the sixth energy level, but also the reshaping of the stars that people yearn for - otherwise, no one would look up to the sky."

"It seems that before I really go back to my hometown to farm, I still have a lot of things to prepare."

　6 more!Finish the plot related to the second prince in one go, ask for a monthly pass!

The real dilemma facing the world of Terra reveals a corner, but it is not the whole story.

I believe that everyone who reads here knows that I didn’t write about the problems of modern society at all, and I didn’t reflect anyone. What I wrote was a sci-fi background, and the predicament that civilization in the Western Fantasy post-apocalypse might encounter.

Still the same sentence, people on earth don't touch Citera!
