Yu Lian and everyone from the 101st Company finally arrived at the Enlighteners' L8 Star Gate aboard an armed military transport ship on December 24, 829 of the Commonwealth Era. This was also the only star gate controlled by the Blue Star Commonwealth, and it was known as the "Southern Heavenly Gate."
As mentioned earlier, among the "three chief culprits that destroyed this world's technological tree and history," we have already covered two: psionics and zero-element.
The third was the so-called Enlighteners' legacy.
Let's put it this way. If a group of Watts who were still studying how much water to put in a steam engine, how hot to make the furnace, and what shape was most efficient suddenly learned that archaeologists had dug a complete nuclear reactor out of the ground—with a full set of operating instructions, no less—what do you think would happen?
In this process, how many stages of technological development had been overlooked simply because no one had managed to ignite the fire? And how many social changes and advances derived from those fruits had been strangled in the cradle?
The faster-than-light engines that utilized stellar gravity wells, the nebula communication network constructed by Ansebo, and the collection and application of dark matter were all parts of those "nuclear reactors."
By now, some far-sighted scholars had naturally realized this and begun trying to make up for the gaps. But we all knew that studying step by step was already painful enough, let alone going back to make up missed lessons.
The so-called Enlighteners' Star Gate was the greatest, most mysterious, and most indestructible creation among all the Enlighteners' legacies.
As we had already said, the superluminal travel of the various civilizations in the galaxy used hyperspace channels formed by the gravity wells between stars, also known
