Success

Several hours later, in that same underground laboratory.

Sun Cheng looked curiously at the device before him, nearly five meters tall and weighing no less than twenty tons. It looked more like a towable cargo container. "What is this?"

"A teleportation device... We're still in the stage of digesting the technology and exploring it. We still can't create the kind of portal seen in the video you provided us earlier, Commander..."

"Oh!"

Sun Cheng was somewhat disappointed, but he was no longer a complete technological novice.

Technology was like a tree, and climbing the tech tree was much like the growth of a large tree.

With sufficient nutrients, it might grow faster, but there were no real shortcuts in the process.

Atlas and the others were currently in precisely this situation!

The Space Bridge technology Sun Cheng had extracted from Jetfire and Sentinel Prime's memory data was incomplete.

Jetfire's Space Bridge-related technology was the most disordered, which was also why Sun Cheng had still failed to master it after finding Jetfire and reading his memories.

In Jetfire's eyes, Space Bridge technology was probably second only to certain private memories about himself in importance.

Compared to him, however, Space Bridge technology was clearly not something particularly advanced in Sentinel Prime's mind.

The Space Bridge technology Sun Cheng had read from his memory data was relatively systematic. Though it was likewise incomplete, he had deliberately encrypted some of the key portions.

Even so, after being handed over to Atlas and the others, it became nourishment and reference material, greatly improving the efficiency of what had originally been a laborious effort to research Space Bridge technology.

However, absorbing technology itself required time, and the Space Bridge technology Sun Cheng had obtained from Sentinel Prime was incomplete as well.

Therefore, even with reference material,
