Exploration of the Dead Silent Region still required considerable time.
Preparations for the intergalactic expedition were nearing completion, but research at the Academy of Sciences had not stopped.
On the contrary, enthusiasm for research had reached an all-time high.
An offshoot of insufficient firepower phobia-insufficient technology phobia.
The journey of 2.54 million light-years was immensely long, long enough for all manner of unforeseen events to occur.
Throughout this long, lonely journey, human civilization could rely only on its own strength to move forward.
To give the fleet as much room for error as possible, every academician at the Academy of Sciences was doing everything he or she could to advance the relevant technologies.
The Spacetime Research Center, Human Federation Academy of Sciences.
The Spacetime Research Center was particularly bustling that day.
A large number of Level I Academicians had gathered, including some of the most senior academicians, such as Lü Yongchang and Fang Xu.
Strictly speaking, apart from Lü Yongchang, the other Level I Academicians had already spent quite some time at the Spacetime Research Center.
Fang Xu included.
As the Academy of Sciences' second-in-command, Fang Xu naturally filled in wherever help was needed.
His main contribution was simply being there.
By this point.
Both the technology inside the Tenth Empire's fortress and the technology tree, whose uppermost reaches were gradually emerging from the fog, had proven one thing: spacetime theory involving other dimensions was the key technology for advancing to a level seven civilization.
Thus, under Lü Yongchang's orders and with a massive allocation of resources, the Spacetime Research Center had gradually become one of the Academy of Sciences' largest research institutions.
For the first time, human civilization had also truly encountered a bottleneck in its development.
It was like birds and fish.
Humans, as three-dimensional beings, were the
