The [Tower of Babel] project caused quite a stir within the Human Federation.
Although the space elevator would be built from the top down, the construction teams responsible for laying its foundations had already set out for the designated sites.

With enough computing power, Zero could simultaneously control trillions of robots to carry out construction and production tasks!
