Before it was activated, no one had imagined that the Precursor's characteristic technological artifact concealed such a function. Looking back now, the Precursor had truly spared no expense. Even after leaving, they had still left so many characteristic technological artifacts behind in the Small Universe.
There had been ten sets, after all. In the end, only one had been successfully preserved and subsequently obtained by humanity.
At present, producing characteristic technological products was as difficult for a Level Six Civilization as creating wonders. The Awakeners' and Silicon-Based Collective's products seemed relatively easier to make, while those of the Divine Matrix Civilization were far more difficult. It had taken the efforts of their entire civilization, along with immense time and resources, just to create a single Neutron War Star.
Humanity's own characteristic technological products were much the same. They had assumed that equipment mounted on warships would be easier to achieve, but in reality, it had still cost humanity five thousand years.
If this had been during the Earth Era, before the thing could even be completed, its various components would have first been worn away by time.
Humanity was immensely satisfied with this activated Precursor characteristic technology device. Although no one knew how it worked, they knew how to use it. The Precursor had even left behind a simple maintenance manual. The device could run self-checks for minor issues and identify problematic areas. Humanity only needed to follow the manual and periodically manipulate a certain force field it constructed to repair some minor faults.
But if the core was damaged, there was nothing they could do. Only the Precursor could probably repair that.
The Precursor characteristic technology device aboard Lyra was now considered old equipment, something from billions of years ago. Yet as long as humanity maintained it as required,
