The heavy cabin door blocked every prying gaze.
Inside the office, Lü Yongchang reclined in his chair, his eyes closed and his brow slightly furrowed, seemingly pondering something.
Since the research fleet had left the Kepler Stellar System, the Academy of Sciences' research efficiency had fallen considerably, but its sheer manpower made up for it!
Since the successful implementation of the awakening plan, human civilization had enjoyed more than a century of peaceful development.
Over that century, the Sociology Division's efforts had greatly reduced the disparities in scientific literacy among individuals in human civilization.
Meanwhile, with the social public child-rearing system operating at full capacity, human civilization's population had surpassed thirty billion for the first time.
Although that was still somewhat low compared with an ordinary level five civilization, the influx of fresh blood had undoubtedly breathed new life into the Academy of Sciences.
The primary task of these relatively inexperienced young scientists was to refine the myriad minor technologies on the technology tree.
Before the research fleet departed, the level five civilization technology tree in Lü Yongchang's mind had already approached completion, with only a tiny fraction of its technologies still locked.
Now, thanks to the persistent research of those young academicians, the level five civilization technology tree was finally complete.
Within the technology tree space, against its mottled backdrop, Lü Yongchang's consciousness form "looked up" at the "lushly branching" technology tree before him, and he could not help feeling a little wistful.
Accompanied by a familiar, faint vibration, the markers that served as the technology tree's "leaves" began to shine brightly.
Under that radiance, the light at the top of the technology tree was completely dispelled.
The vibrations grew stronger, and Lü Yongchang felt his thoughts becoming increasingly clear.
No, that was not all.
Although his consciousness form
