Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Technology Evolution Tree Chart (System Pathway Reveal)

Beneath the ruins of Sector-5, Asura stood before the flickering hologram pulsing from the reawakened command core.

The Civilization Evolution System projected a branching tree of radiant lines and nodes — the blueprint of lost technology and the potential to rebuild it all.

A cold prompt followed:

A new age had begun — not of magic, but of machines fused with willpower.

🧠 Asura's Thought:

"I will not just cultivate body or mind.I will cultivate civilization itself."
