Cataclysmic Era: I can unlock the tech tree

The encrypted tachyon broadcast propagated faster than the speed of light.

The Sekel civilization was the first to receive this message, followed by the Silicic Ray, which was still en route.

Sekker: [???]

Silicon Ray: [?! ...

At this moment, the tachyon communication channel was filled with question marks and exclamation marks from the Sekor civilization and the Silicor Ray.

What the heck?!

They can even create wormholes now?!

Isn't human civilization supposed to be a near-level 8 civilization?!

As the manta ray hurried along, it raised its tail and scratched its hard head.

I can't understand it, I just can't understand it.

4500 years ago, when they first met, the other party was still a small, level-six civilization.

4500 years later, the other side has become a leader among level eight civilizations—indeed, wormhole technology is the watershed of level eight civilizations.

After mastering wormhole technology, the operational range of a Level 8 civilization will experience a leap forward, and its war potential will be greatly enhanced.

All of this took only 4500 years, nearly half of which was spent traveling!

Family members, does anyone understand?

Despite this, after a brief period of confusion, Silicon Ray accepted it all—as a slacker, the stronger the backer, the easier his future life would be.

With that thought in mind, the silicon ray slowed its pace.

As for the Sekor civilization on the other side...

After a brief moment of shock, it hastily shut down the wormhole generator on the warship and sent an apologetic tachyon message to human civilization.

……

More than ten hours later.

Under the joint watchful eyes of the Silicon Ray and the Sekel fleet, a mobile experimental ship slowly entered the stable wormhole structure.

A few minutes later.

A message came from infinity.

In just a few minutes, the mobile experimental ship successfully traversed 100,000 light-years and arrived in the target star system!

The first wormhole experiment has been declared a success!

Amidst cheers echoing throughout the Academy of Sciences, the Sekol civilization, unable to contain its anxiety, sent a tachyon message.

Human civilization, have you advanced to level eight?

The reason for sending this message is that miracles are not uncommon in the universe.

Leaving aside the four-dimensional life forms that grew up playing with wormholes, some "gifted" civilizations may also master wormhole technology ahead of time by going astray in their technological development.

As the "designated guardian civilization" of human civilization, the Sekel civilization must ensure that it has a clear understanding of the strength of human civilization—it also needs to report its situation to the [Tenth Empire] regularly!

【certainly.】

Human civilization, by sheer luck, mastered the vacuum zero-point energy engine 170 years ago, successfully advancing to a Type VIII civilization.

Sekor: ? ? ?

Still hoping for luck?

Are you polite?

At this moment, the feelings of the individuals in the Sekel civilization are incredibly complex.

On the one hand, the strength of human civilization is entirely beneficial to both the silicon-based alliance and the Sekor civilization.

on the other hand……

As an "old guy" who has developed for millions of years and barely reached the level of an eighth-level civilization, seeing a "monster" like human civilization must make him feel somewhat unbalanced.

grass.

We are all civilizations in the same universe, so why are they able to develop so quickly?

……

After briefly assessing the strength of human civilization, the Sekel fleet quietly departed.

then……

They quietly withdrew their fleet to a distance of one hundred light-years.

On the one hand, this can express goodwill to human civilization—no one wants to be "monitored," even if it is for their own safety.

on the other hand……

The Sekor civilization had to acknowledge a fact.

It may not be long before human civilization surpasses them in combat power—once human civilization successfully builds a starship of an eighth-level civilization, also known as a neutron star starship.

……

Earth year 14500.

The boom period of dimensional technology has long ended, replaced by the rapid development of conventional technology.

Under Lü Yongchang's leadership, the dark matter deflection shield research and development project was declared a success.

The stability of dark matter is sufficient to constrain the two-dimensional fragments of the "drawing," and the shield made from it as "material" undoubtedly possesses outrageous stability and protective power.

The composite shield system, consisting of four protective shields, a dark matter deflector shield, and a space shield, has also been identified by the Chinese Academy of Sciences as the basic defense system for neutron starships.

In addition, regarding weaponry.

The mastery of vacuum zero-point energy has greatly enhanced the offensive power of existing weapons—currently, human fleets hardly need to consider energy consumption.

In particular, the proposal of the "annihilation starburst" technology allowed Academician Yevgeny to completely unleash his potential.

Not powerful enough?

Add the equivalent directly!

There is nothing that pile equivalent cannot solve.

As for Academician Wilson...

Compared to Yevgeny, he was perhaps the biggest beneficiary of the "Suirenshi" (a mythical figure).

Energy weapons inherently have very high energy requirements.

With the inexhaustible energy source of [Suirenshi], Academician Wilson has repeatedly pushed the limits of energy weapon power.

The continuous advancement of weaponry has brought tremendous research motivation to the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences' School of Materials Science.

If the spear has become sharper, the shield can't remain unchanged, can it?

If the mass of a neutron star continues to increase, it may become a quark star.

The successful construction of dense quark material further enhanced the defensive capabilities of the human fleet.

Seeing the technology tree in the technology tree space gradually flourish, Lü Yongchang did not hesitate at all and took the opportunity to propose a fleet reconstruction plan.

The construction project of neutron starships has been officially put on the agenda.

……

Compared to previous starships, neutron starships are not only not larger, but they have actually shrunk considerably.

The flagship, the Earth, was scaled down to the 100,000-meter level.

The secondary flagship, the Titan Mothership, is reduced in size to the 80,000-meter level.

Needless to say, the main warships have returned to the 50,000-meter range in size.

Like the starships of the Cleaners civilization.

All of this is based on a deep understanding of higher-dimensional space.

With the support of space compression technology, although the size of the starship has shrunk considerably, its internal space has increased significantly, and its combat power has far exceeded that of the original white dwarf starship.

With Lü Yongchang's help, the Academy of Sciences quickly completed the redesign of all starships.

For the first time, human civilization has demonstrated its "infrastructure powerhouse" capabilities in the face of the silicon ray.

Thousands upon thousands of starship factories "sailed out" from the microcosm.

Stars and planets are like materials on an assembly line, being cut and processed into various materials.

Faced with this unprecedented scene of "wholesale" starship manufacturing, both the Silicon Ray and the Sekel civilization fell silent.

At this moment, both the Silicorius and the Sekel civilization had only one thought in their minds.

Good luck!

Human civilization is not their enemy!
