So the large rectangular prism from before had merely been a container. What they saw now was the equipment's actual body. Using Nanotechnology, the Awakeners had packed three thousand sets of equipment into the large rectangular prism. Yue Yuan's operation had just opened the container and connected the equipment's mainframe to humanity's New Flagship.
After completing the operation, Yue Yuan also withdrew from the consciousness link. He was as curious as everyone else, so after rising from his chair, he kept looking down at the floor.
This place had previously been an open space deliberately cleared out to accommodate the Synchronized Consciousness equipment. Now that the consciousness equipment's "container" had been opened, its internal components had flowed through Nanotechnology and connected to the equipment humanity had prepared in advance, leaving the area spacious once more.
However, it was not entirely empty, because this area also housed the cockpits humanity had specifically built for the many pilots. The main cockpit was naturally here as well. These cockpits had now all been connected by crisscrossing cables to the Synchronized Consciousness equipment standing in the center of the open space.
The Synchronized Consciousness equipment shared the Awakeners' usual style: it was also a Golden Ratio Rectangular Prism. Its bottom and top were attached to the floor and ceiling of the open space, while countless cables extended from both ends like tree roots.
Every cable was encased in a layer of amber-like material before extending outward and connecting to the equipment humanity had built according to the manual, physically linking it to the New Flagship Lyra.
The extremely open floor was divided into layers of compartments, each containing an individual cockpit, for a total of ten thousand. It really was not eight thousand, because humanity had always been accustomed to making extras as spares.
