Chapter 0:

A little letter gathering my thoughts and how I feel

Cyber Slash!!! LXY - The Web Novel


2127, September 9

I've been thinking about how things are right now - what, with all the technology running amok and making the future look more and more advanced as the years go by. It's cool, but honestly, it's pretty scary in how it's reaching a point of no return.

Me personally, I think there's still some time to turn back, but every passing day and with every breakthrough, it just seems like there's less and less hope to maintain human identity when stuff like A.I. and automatons continue to be pumped out of H.I.P. (Huiying Industrialization Protocol) Pillars like copy paper.

Surely they'll run out of materials? Maybe. For some reason, it doesn't look like it, but that's just how I feel.

Anyways, I just sit back and wonder...

Was it all supposed to end up like this?

Like, I see cities like Meilijingshi and its ringed layout with the four districts - District Four being the slums and outermost layer, where me and everyone I've known all my life live. District Three being a more stable area - "middle class". Then there's District Two, where all the rich people who suck up to Huiying live. Then District One - the core. That's where political and military power primarily resides and comes from, and the source of the Huiying company and it's self-updating pillars. I see a city like this as a total dystopia, especially since the inner cities can just dump money and influence into acts that put us in the third and fourth districts into absolute ruin. 

Each layer is separated by a wall and deadly lasers - heavily guarded. And pretty much everyone in layer four from the people I know and the people we constantly engage in warfare against, we all hate the inner city. Same with a good chunk of those in the third district, they've shared sentiment both online and in-person that districts two and one absolutely just suck. Meanwhile, like I said, high class and super wealthy suck-ups to Huiying live in the inner cities where all the prosperity's at.

Though, not for long.

I'll make sure of it.

Long, Xiaoyang
