Although the Optical Computer Research Center had yet to produce any tangible results, its theories and models for the Optical Computer had already achieved a breakthrough.
Without a doubt, this greatly stoked the fire in the academicians' hearts!
Lü Yongchang, meanwhile, had also managed to glimpse several technologies related to [Optical Computer] in the Technology Tree Space.
Since most of the Technology Tree remained dim, he had yet to find the [Optical Computer] node within it.
But he still believed that [Optical Computer] was by no means exclusive to a level seven civilization!
The reason was simple.
He had already seen a key technology for [Optical Computer] on the Technology Tree-[Light-Ray Materialization].
Considering the importance of computing resources to human civilization, Lü Yongchang raised research into the Light-Ray Computer to the second-highest priority, behind only the grand unified field and spacetime theory.
Earth Calendar year 3761.
Inside the Optical Computer Research Center at the Human Federation Academy of Sciences.
Clad in protective suits, Lü Yongchang and Mo Zeyang stood tensely inside a laboratory evacuated to a high-purity vacuum.
Before them stood an enormous experimental bench.
The bench was covered in complex machinery.
At the center of all this machinery was a small, square space.
The entire apparatus served to generate a powerful and precise grand unified field.
With the help of this grand unified field, human civilization would attempt to "capture" intangible light rays!
"The first Light-Ray Materialization experiment will now begin."
This experiment was destined to go down in history. Even Lü Yongchang's voice carried a faint trace of nervousness and excitement.
Once the order was given, the light sources in the laboratory quietly shut off.
The sealed laboratory immediately plunged into pitch darkness.
The vibrations and hum produced by the operating Grand Unified Field Generator traveled through
