Only I Walk Alone

A thorough study of history reveals that societal progress has always been driven by a small fraction of people. This minority often goes against the will of the majority, but once they succeed, the majority follows them, thus advancing civilization.

The situation today is similar. Those who truly choose to leave the mainstream are the ones who see reality. They no longer drift along with the current or chase after fleeting illusions. They pursue what is real.

Wu Ge calls this state “Seeking Truth,” referring to the pursuit of truth amidst falsehoods. This is not a stage of cultivation but a realm that a civilization should strive to reach during its development.

“Seeking Truth” means that people no longer chase after illusory power, status, or wealth. They are not bound by material possessions or superficial tasks. They care more about practical effects, about how to drive societal progress and realize their self-worth, rather than finding themselves empty after obtaining money, power, status, fame, or beauty.

Having reached this height, Wu Ge understands that money, power, status, fame, and beauty are merely tools used by the alien overlords to dominate and exploit humanity. With a mere thought, these overlords can strip anyone of their status or bestow wealth and fame.

However, even the highest gods cannot take away the genuinely valuable creations of individuals.

For example, the “Star Worm” animation created by the Star Worm race; the various odd papermaking techniques; languages and scripts invented by people’s own ingenuity; and card games people have created.

These creations are beyond the gods’ reach to take or to give to others.

Some people realize this and affirm the value of their lives, thus breaking away from the mainstream and waking up.

Earth’s civilization, under Wu Ge’s disruptive influence, initially seemed to have regressed by a century. Now, however, it has begun to rapidly evolve again, giving the impression that the regression was merely a running start.

It’s well-known that a running jump goes farther than a standing jump. Sometimes, stepping back is not a retreat but a way to gather strength for a longer leap.

Earth’s civilization is taking a running start. Scientists, artists, workers, and students are all preparing for their leaps.

Enough wandering, it’s time to focus!

Enough resting, it’s time to run!

Forward, always forward!

Accelerate, keep accelerating!

And then, jump!

This is a great leap for civilization!

Wu Ge did not interfere, and the alien overlords did not issue commands, but more and more people abandoned the wish-granting orbs. The supreme governor, unable to find an orb himself, also intended to guide this situation.

More and more people are engaging in their work with a positive attitude and passionate enthusiasm. Their efficiency has increased seven- or eight-fold, and their creative passion burns brightly.

One after another, high-quality works emerge, and one scientific challenge after another is overcome. The entire civilization of Earth is amassing a force, waiting to break free from its shackles and soar into the sky!

Fly, civilization of Earth!

“Fly, Earth Civilization!” is a 4D novel written by an obscure author who was inspired by the will of the great era and then created this 4D novel.

A 4D novel is set in a virtual world and engages multiple senses, allowing readers to see, hear, and feel the scenes they imagine in their minds. These scenes are not fixed but change according to the reader’s imagination, making each person’s experience unique.

As a result, the profession of live-streaming the reading of 4D novels has emerged. Those with less imagination can watch others explore these worlds, becoming a modern form of entertainment.

After some actions by Wu Ge, the Earth civilization entered an era of creative explosion. However, scientists had yet to start researching Unified Field Theory; they needed more of a run-up.

Wu Ge then assigned a new task to the scientists: to master the technology of 16-path fusion.

Scientists, empowered by the “Spirit Condensation” realm and “Seeking Truth” buffs, broke through this technical challenge in just three days.

The technology of 16-path fusion is a type of nuclear fusion. Initially, nuclear fusion was single-path, but research led to double-path fusion, which is 1.5 times more efficient than single-path, significantly increasing the efficiency of energy production from nuclear fusion.

Then, N-path fusion became like pi, with everyone aiming to push this N-path fusion further, from double to triple, and then to quadruple paths, up to the current sixteen-path fusion.

However, the difficulty of adding each new path of fusion grows geometrically, making N+1 path fusion increasingly challenging. Despite this, Earth’s scientists solved the problem in just three days.

This is the result of all scientists working together as a unified force. Now, they are not fighting alone but have combined into a single entity, their power immensely strong!

After tackling 16-path fusion, Wu Ge challenged them to construct a behemoth battleship. It’s well-known that the larger the battleship, the more challenging it is to design and manufacture due to considerations like density, gravity, and centrifugal force.

A giant battleship making a rapid turn in space could be torn in half if these factors are not considered.

Yet, within just a year, a behemoth battleship half the size of the Moon was constructed, stationed far beyond Earth’s orbit. Its gravitational pull could affect Earth, potentially causing tsunamis if it were too close.

The deterrence power of the behemoth battleship is immense, and after its development, research on Titan-class battleships began.

After the behemoth battleship was developed, Wu Ge finally issued the task all scientists had been eagerly awaiting: to develop a Unified Field Theory!

The scientists, full of confidence, united once more and threw themselves into this challenging task with great passion.

However, the Unified Field Theory is not so easily understood, and the scientists of Earth still needed a breakthrough.

But where this breakthrough would come from was unknown.

In the third year, a werewolf scientist named Azhen proposed a shocking method to research the Unified Field Theory. When asked to prove his theory, she stated that it required the assistance of a divine artifact from the highest gods.

Others criticized her, calling her overambitious and disrespectful to the gods.

However, after hearing his proposed method, Wu Ge decided to give it a try.
