In 2055, the LinguaCore Chip, an epoch-making invention known as the "terminator of the Tower of Babel problem", was finally declared successful after more than ten years of hard work by top scientists from many countries.
This neural interface device, which is only the size of a grain of rice and is implanted under the skin behind the ear through minimally invasive surgery, can capture and analyze signals from the language center of the brain in real time. Through seamless connection with the target language database, it can instantly complete the conversion and reception decoding of thoughts into speech.
Its advent has completely shattered the language barriers between human civilizations. Theoretically, as long as you are on the surface of the earth, a redefined "village" planet, no matter what dialect you are facing, you can communicate like your mother tongue.
Of course, this convenience "no matter where you are" does not include Mars and other dangerous areas in outer space, which are currently restricted areas for humans and have extremely poor communication environments.
Three years have passed by in a blink of an eye, and the year has entered 2058. In the city of LD in the United States, night falls, shrouding this international city known for its gloomy rain and heavy sense of history.
The hustle and bustle of the day was diluted by night, replaced by colorful holographic billboards, neon strips, and streams of light traveling on the maglev track. The entire city was immersed in a bizarre hustle and bustle.
In a mid-to-high-end bar called "Titanic Embers" in the city center, soothing jazz flows in the air filled with the smell of cigar smoke, high-end perfume and whiskey.
