Within the Research Center's enormous Holographic Projection, the "anaconda" formed from white suspended dust and light kept rising and falling through the seemingly calm space.
Although the experimental area contained neither solidified light nor any so-called Optical Components, it still formed a perfect closed-loop structure under this unknown mechanism.
The miraculous sight left Lü Yongchang's mind utterly blank.
He gripped the armrests on either side of his chair.
He squeezed so hard that the veins on his hands bulged.
After a brief spell of bewilderment, an unprecedented surge of excitement and curiosity welled up within him!
Why? What caused this? What exactly happened to that region of space? Where did the light go the instant it disappeared?
Questions rose in Lü Yongchang's mind, one after another.
Alongside them came a faint glimmer of inspiration.
Could this self-cycling multilayered structure be the reason a level seven civilization's Optical Computer had such immense computing power?
Time slowly passed, and the image in the projection gradually stabilized.
But the academicians' hearts showed no sign of settling.
At first, lingering concerns about the experiment aboard the experimental ship had prompted everyone to deliberately keep their voices low.
But that initial restraint only paved the way for a later outburst like a raging storm.
Boom!
When the moment arrived, the discussions in the Research Center suddenly swelled in volume!
Only when Lü Yongchang left his seat and slowly stood did the noise in the Research Center begin to subside.
Everyone understood.
This was an unknown spatial phenomenon, which meant that after two years, their hard-fought campaign finally had a concrete target.
Vast quantities of sensor data streamed across the Holographic Projection.
The procedure remained the same.
Zero performed the initial data processing → the academicians performed the second round of processing → Lü Yongchang
