Cataclysmic Era: I can unlock the tech tree

Just as it was about to speak again, the lights in the command center suddenly went out!

Along with the lights dimming, the huge screen in front of the command center also dimmed.

No, it's not just that one screen.

Throughout the command center, all the screens dimmed.

Even the entire fleet's command center was filled with similar scenes!

The captain stared blankly at the scene before him, swallowing the words that were about to come out.

"W-what happened?!"

In the chaos, it grabbed the technician next to it and snapped, "Didn't you say the other side couldn't analyze our computer system?!"

The technician ignored the captain in front of him.

It stared blankly at the large screen in front of the command center.

On the screen, lines of strange code flashed by rapidly, seemingly out of nowhere.

"What is this?!"

The captain asked with a puzzled look.

The code on the screen is flashing faster and faster!

Like mercury spilling onto the ground!

Zero arrogantly displayed his power to these little greys!

Finally, the technician's thinking could no longer keep up with the speed of the code updates.

It reluctantly withdrew its gaze.

"This is……"

"The process of unlocking the highest control authority of a warship."

"The first half of the code was seen by almost all the technicians at the time."

The captain quickly grasped the hidden meaning in those words: "What about the second half?"

The technician shook his head and lowered his head: "I don't know."

"We haven't gotten to that stage yet."

Upon hearing this, the captain's expression changed instantly.

In just a few dozen seconds, the other side's progress in cracking the code surpassed theirs.

Keep in mind that the technicians spent nearly a year working on these secondary flagship models!

What this means is self-evident.

suddenly.

[Remember the fastest online novel website: 202ᴋᴋs.ᴄᴏᴍ]

The dim lights returned to normal.

The screen, which had been flashing with countless lines of code, returned to its familiar appearance.

"Did they... succeed?"

The captain's pupils trembled slightly, he swallowed hard, and spoke cautiously.

The technician shook his head blankly: "I...I don't know."

The captain's gaze lingered on the communication equipment beside him.

Without any hesitation.

It pressed a button directly on the communication device.

Nothing happens.

Somewhat reluctantly, it pressed the button again.

At the same time, a line of text flashed on the screen in front of him.

[Captain of Secondary Flagship One, Soviavin, cease your actions!]

Otherwise, this behavior would be seen as a provocation against human civilization!

It suddenly stopped moving.

Its body trembled violently from fear, and its gray skin almost turned white!

Finished!

Only one thought remained in its mind.

Their lives were completely in the hands of the other side!

……

"Highest level control has been successfully acquired."

Zero's report rang out inside the Earth: "Currently, all enemy warships are under control."

As Lü Yongchang stepped out of the deep-sea compartment, he exclaimed in surprise, "So fast?"

His eyes flickered slightly, and he asked again, "Does the enemy warship possess artificial intelligence similar to yours?"

"Strong artificial intelligence has not yet been discovered." Zero responded simply and without hesitation, "Weak artificial intelligence programs exist within the secondary flagship."

Lü Yongchang nodded thoughtfully.

From this perspective, even a Level 3 civilization has not mastered the so-called advanced artificial intelligence technology.

Thinking back to the mysterious line of code the system had given him, Lü Yongchang's doubts deepened once again.

Where does the tech tree system actually come from?

Such a powerful Zero technology—what level of civilization could possibly possess it?!

Lü Yongchang did not delve into these questions that were destined to remain unanswered.

Instead, he directly issued the order.

"Zero, notify everyone to prepare for a meeting of the Academy of Sciences."

After a moment of contemplation, he said again, "Besides the Academy of Sciences, the members of the Awakening Council also need to attend this meeting."

……

[Earth] Conference Room.

Lu Yongchang sat in his seat, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he were pondering something.

"Yongchang! Cough cough... We meet again!!"

"Cough cough!!"

A familiar voice came from the direction of the gate.

Lü Yongchang turned his head and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

Upon seeing the visitor, he quickly removed the electromagnetic suction device from the chair, stood up to greet him, and said, "Speaker Hong, it's been a long time!"

While coughing, Hong Qiming quickly walked to Lü Yongchang's side and patted him on the shoulder.

"Yongchang, why are you being so distant?"

Perhaps because he saw an old acquaintance, Lü Yongchang's expression became much more lively.

He chuckled softly, changing the subject: "Did you just come out of the hibernation pod?"

Hong Qiming coughed again forcefully, then nodded and said, "That's right!"

"The taste of this deep-sea liquid is really..." he said, shaking his head with a hint of exasperation. He then half-jokingly added, "When you have time, you could try to improve its flavor."

Lü Yongchang naturally agreed to the request with a smile: "Okay!"

"I'll resolve this issue once things have calmed down."

Hearing this, Hong Qiming shook his head with a wry smile: "Stable and peaceful..."

"I don't know if I'll ever see that day."

"When I woke up, I thought we were already in the Gliese 555 star system, but..." Hong Qiming gave a wry smile, "it's another war."

Fortunately, the outcome was good.

"When I first woke up, Zero told me that you had captured a group of warships from a Level 3 civilization!"

"You have no idea, I was completely stunned!"

Seeing Hong Qiming's amazed expression, Lü Yongchang smiled gently: "This is all thanks to the two-dimensional fragment of the [painting]. Otherwise, that flagship that can travel faster than the speed of light alone would have been enough to give us a hard time."

Hong Qiming: "??!"

"Sail at faster than light speed?!"

Seeing the questioning looks from some of the surrounding councilors, he quickly lowered his voice: "Is that so?!"

Lü Yongchang nodded and gave a brief explanation.

"Unbelievable..." Hong Qiming's eyes revealed a hint of lingering fear.

"Professor, Speaker, all attendees are present."

Zero interrupted Hong Qiming.

Upon hearing this, Hong Qiming nodded slightly, composed himself, and sat down in his seat.

In a mere instant, he seemed like a completely different person!

Completely different from his carefree and playful demeanor when chatting with Lü Yongchang, Hong Qiming exuded a calm and solemn aura at this moment!

In my memory, the former Speaker of the National Assembly also had the same temperament.

"professor?"

Fang Xu's voice came from the side.

Lu Yongchang composed himself and slowly began to speak.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the main topic of this meeting is to discuss one issue."
