Unlike Ding Yang, Lin Qi didn't dwell on the deeper meaning behind the Headquarters' actions.
Lin Qi had lived in the Cyber World for too long and was no longer accustomed to thinking in concepts like "nation" or "civilization."
In the Cyber World, corporations and profit were all that mattered.
The "nation" was an obsolete concept in the Cyber World.
Only through decentralization could the Intercontinental Giant Corporations and big businesses of the Cyber World pursue profits without restraint.
Furthermore, for the ordinary people of the Cyber World, the period of history when nations existed as political entities was a secret, sealed away by the Big Business Alliance.
If Lin Qi had been fortunate enough to read about that period of history, he would have discovered that certain Intercontinental Giant Corporations were the architects behind the Cyber World's decentralization.
