Prior to hearing what Qin Ye had to say, perhaps they would've thought that there was a chance for the Prometheus plan to catch up. After all, the Cathayan Underworld had never excelled in the field of physics. If Archimedes was right in that the Cathayan Underworld only had a small lead, then the chances of the Prometheus plan succeeding weren't that low.

However, things were completely different now.

The Cathayan Underworld had a far more significant lead than Archimedes speculated!
