I'm just an internet cafe owner

Karen's voice drew Nina's attention. Nina's eyes were completely vacant. She asked Karen, "Tell me, what would happen if I threw a pen at you?"

"It hit me and then fell to the ground."

"Yes, according to basic physics, that's how it should be. But through computer calculations, I obtained an astonishing result. The first time, the pen bounced around in the air without landing. The second time, the pen flew out of Earth at a speed exceeding the speed of light—it surpassed the speed of light!!!"

"Classmate...! Classmate!"

"I'm fine..."

Nina covered her head and said softly, "It's just that physics might not exist in the future, it's nothing..."

"Really...it doesn't exist anymore? Is what he said true?"

"Him? Do you know something about the truth?"

Nina grasped some key information at that moment. She wanted to know the truth, but no matter what method or means she used, she could not obtain the truth.

Chapter 406 Lelouch Starts to Deceive (Bonus Chapter)

Karen took a deep breath and said, "I have something to tell you, just think of it as a rumor. I heard that an alien civilization has discovered Earth and wants to conquer it. To prevent Earth's technology from exploding, they have locked down our basic physics."

"What? How is that possible!"

"I didn't believe it at first, until he showed me this..."

Kallen took out Lelouch's notebook, which contained no secrets, only records related to the Dark Forest.

Upon seeing the records about the Dark Forest Theory and the destruction of Centaurus, Nina's eyes widened.

"Are these... real?"

"I don't know, and I'm very skeptical, but it seems like everything he wrote here, except for the alien invasion of Earth in 400 years, has come true."

"No wonder... Can I see him?"

Karen shook her head: "I can't guarantee I can get him to come out, because he hasn't been to school in a long time."

Is he a student at our school?

"Yes…"

So Kallen managed to find Lelouch's contact information. Now Lelouch has given up on going to school? Going to school? What a load of rubbish.

Through a special network, he has found like-minded companions all over the world.

Their sole purpose is to end the war and unite all humanity in resisting the invasion from extraterrestrials.

Lelouch's side has already established a preliminary organization, and even thought of a name for the resistance: the Earth Resistance Army.

Just as he was preparing for an in-person meeting, the doorbell rang.

C.C., who was eating pizza in the living room, called out to Lelouch, "Someone's here."

"understood."

Lelouch calmly got up; through his mental powers, he already knew who was outside.

When Kallen opened the door and saw Lelouch, she opened her mouth, but swallowed the words she wanted to say.

Lelouch then asked directly, "Do you believe what I said?"

Before Karen could answer, Nina asked directly, "What do you know?"

"No rush, I'll answer you slowly. Please come in, both of you!"

Upon entering the room, the two saw CC eating pizza in the living room.

"It's you?"

CC greeted Karen, who looked at her awkwardly.

Lelouch repeated what he had said yesterday to Nina, and at that moment, she felt a renewed sense of peace.

I regained my faith.

What she fears most is not that technology will be blocked, but that physics itself does not exist.

Lelouch said seriously, "But our situation might be even more tragic than being destroyed. For those two civilizations, death is just a moment away, but we might have to watch the human race perish."

Lelouch continued to tempt them: "The people of this world are still waging wars for land and for profit, unaware that if we don't unite now, we will never have another chance to unite."

Nina took a deep breath, her voice no longer as weak as before, and said, "We must stop the war! The whole world must unite, but with basic physics blocked, how can we develop..."

"It's simple, just fly out of the solar system!"

Lelouch started spouting nonsense with a straight face: "According to the intelligence I've obtained, their technological blockade only covers the solar system. As long as we develop a spaceship that can fly out of the solar system, we can develop technology outside of it. You must have seen my notes by now, right? I believe that as long as we break through the blockade on basic physics and the whole world concentrates its efforts on improving technology, at the very least we can escape."

Karen spoke with a hint of sadness, "Ending the war? How easy is that..."

Karen is the most qualified to speak on this matter. Her resistance has been going on for so many years, yet they haven't even managed to shake Britannia's rule, so how could they possibly end the world war? Besides, those in power may only care about their immediate interests, not the future of humanity.

Sensing Kallen's thoughts, Lelouch realized that his team had gained another member.

Lelouch stood up and extended his hand to the two men: "I understand, this is a difficult path. But this is not just our business, it is the business of all humanity in the world. I have also contacted many physicists, astronomers, and other like-minded people. We must work together to stop the war in the world. Would you two like to join me?"

Nina answered without hesitation: "I do."

After thinking for a long time, Karen finally spoke up: "I'm willing too!"

Nina didn't have many thoughts on this, because physics "doesn't exist"—alien civilizations were already invading Earth, so thinking about rule now was nonsense. Even if you were allowed to rule, how many years could you rule? A ruler could rule for forty years at most, ten generations at most.

Ten generations later, all of humanity will be extinct! What kind of rule will that be?

If what Lelouch said is true, then it will take humanity at least a hundred years to fly out of the solar system and have the ability to conduct large-scale physical experiments at the edge or even the outer reaches of the solar system.

Still fighting? Nina isn't exaggerating. With physics locked down, we can't research any weapons or equipment anymore. We can only try to develop various technologies using existing physics, and we can't verify the correctness of experiments using computers at all; we can only do it through… the human brain.

Lelouch then spoke up, saying, "I have obtained some technology from Cybertron and the Hexas. Although we cannot analyze this technology now, it should be possible to use it and its principles to give us the ability to conduct experiments outside the solar system within a hundred years."

If it were just empty talk, Lelouch wouldn't have been able to get people to join so easily. Liu Yuan couldn't change the objective physical laws; all he did was ensure that all computer data related to physics experiments returned incorrect results.

That's enough. This level of understanding is enough to make all physicists collapse. At this point, Lelouch steps forward, reveals some truths, and even gives a goal.

He can quickly gain a lot of support in a short period of time. At this point, he can take out some props and technology from internet cafes. Don't ask! The answer is that he got quantum mechanics from another civilization to protect himself.

Regardless of whether it makes sense or not, physicists in this world cannot crack these technologies because computers directly produce incorrect results.

As for how to develop the space industry? Lelouch had already figured it out. He would obtain some spaceships from the Machines that could fly into space and out of the solar system within a decade or so. Then, he would have the world's physicists conduct experiments outside the Milky Way. Once they obtained the correct physical results, they would have more faith in his words.

Lelouch also set himself a small goal: to end the war in this world within the first five years, and at the same time assassinate all the war faction.

Five years later, we will unite the strength of the entire world to fully develop the space industry.

Fifty years from now, once it's confirmed that experiments can be conducted outside the Milky Way, all nations will undoubtedly be able to concentrate their efforts on developing their aerospace industries. Four hundred years from now, the barriers will have disappeared. Humanity will not have forgotten history, but the experience of four hundred years of cooperation will certainly lead them to maintain the current state of affairs.

And how to assassinate them? Simple! Lelouch has already commissioned the Machine Gundam to find all the pro-war factions in this world, regardless of their country, and assassinate them all.

The assassination method is simple; see this BT (pervert/monster)?

Chapter 407 David from 2076

Lelouch arrived at the internet cafe, but today he brought someone with him.

Seeing this, Liu Yuan laughed and joked, "Did you bring your wife?"

"No, we're just... friends."

Alicia nodded in agreement: "I understand~ But she's so cute."

"Hey?"

CC was taken aback by the sudden compliment, being called cute by a girl. Wait, she was a witch, not a cute girl. Just as she was about to retort, a newcomer entered through the door.

"here it is

"...Where?"

David Martinez remembered that he had just gotten into trouble at school and was waiting for his mother to come and bail him out. How did he suddenly end up in such a strange place?

Before he could even wonder what was going on, he saw a silver-haired girl standing in front of him. This girl was so beautiful, so beautiful that his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Hello, this is Mind Space Internet Cafe. Here you can get everything you want."

This newcomer didn't seem to have any deep-seated grievances, so Bronya stepped forward and began her introduction.

The young man named David Martinez looked around somewhat awkwardly.

"This is... an internet cafe? Sorry, I don't have any money..."

Alicia smiled and said, "Here, you don't have to pay upfront; you can even use your lifespan as collateral."

"Lifespan? No way!"

"really?"

Alicia said seductively, "Do you want to live an ordinary life, end up dying in bed with a catheter in your bladder, or become famous before you're even thirty?"

If a man had asked the question, David wouldn't have felt anything, but being asked by a girl like this, he couldn't help but blurt out, "I want to...be famous throughout the world."

Boys his age are most prone to impulsiveness. Even if they don't really want to become famous, they will instinctively make some impulsive choices in front of cute girls like Alicia and Bronya.

Alicia smiled and invited, "Then sell all your lifespan after the age of thirty! Don't worry, this shop isn't a rip-off. After gaining power here, you can quickly acquire more power, and money is very easy to obtain."

"Okay, okay... what should I do?"

"Put your hands here."

Following Alicia's instructions, David placed his hand on the card reader, but Alicia's face immediately showed an expression of disbelief.

"Boss...please help me..."

Alicia's tone was a little nervous. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation, and she could only ask Liu Yuan for advice.

Liu Yuan came closer, and upon closer inspection, he was astonished to find that the young man in front of him had far too little lifespan to sell.

Looking at the previous users, they all started at least at 80, but this one, he's only been here for less than a year. What a short-lived bastard! If he didn't come to internet cafes, he'd probably be out of commission by the time he stepped outside!

However, Liu Yuan calmly addressed David, saying, "Please don't be nervous, guest. She's new and not very familiar with some of the work processes. You have a long lifespan; you'll live to be eighty."

Upon hearing this, Kisara couldn't help but shake his head. It was obvious that Alicia hadn't learned how to fool people; the boss was far more professional.

Don't ask, those with short lifespans all live to eighty. Those with long lifespans are forbidden from trading their lifespan for time.

Who did she choose back then? There were suitable newcomers, but no money. She glanced at their lifespan and they were less than thirty years old, but Liu Yuan fooled her into thinking they were eighty. It's truly a case of someone who would still work for Liu Yuan even after they die.

However, it's clear that those newcomers were lucky; they're not only doing well now, but they're also wealthy.

With money, you can survive better in this internet cafe.
