As time passed, humanity set sail, stopped for supplies, completed resupply, and then set sail again. Gradually, humanity finally noticed that the distances between the stars ahead were growing smaller and the density of stars was increasing. Seeing this, everyone realized that Human Civilization was about to truly enter the main body of the Perseus Arm.
Even along the shortest route, the distance between the two arms was nearly five thousand light-years. Because of the need for resupply, humanity could not travel in a straight line. Including the time spent replenishing supplies, the journey had actually taken more than five hundred years.
After reaching the main body of the Perseus Arm, humanity could not stop yet. It still had to follow the original planned route, traveling roughly another two thousand light-years before reaching the star region shown on the star map.
During the centuries spent crossing the spiral arm, humanity had not merely been traveling. Scientific research, academic studies, and other work had never ceased. However, because major scientific experiments were unsuitable during Warp travel, progress in many disciplines had been limited.
Even so, time had allowed humanity to consolidate all the technological achievements required to advance to a Level 4 Civilization. For example, humanity had carried out several rounds of iteration on Gravity Well technology, and the results had been incorporated into its various creations. The equipment beneath Lyra's floors had undergone an update.
At last, after completing another voyage, humanity truly set foot in the vast, star-filled Perseus Arm.
Humanity had accomplished the great feat of crossing a spiral arm. This was undoubtedly an event worthy of being recorded in human history, and the Star Alliance Member Civilizations were immensely proud as well, because they had personally taken part in this great voyage.
