Although Su Yao was ambiguous, the word 'scientist' moved Tang Ling a little.
In this era, the highest rank of the power pyramid was never occupied by the powerful Purple Moon Warriors and their ranks. Instead, there were many other different categories at the highest rank and many specific occupation branches such as scientists, technicians, and so on.
Maybe as Su Yao said, Safety Sector No. 17 was only a low level sector, so all the high-end occupations were missing and the information listed about them were all muddled and vague. There was also another possibility that Safety Sector No. 17 could not produce a specific occupation, so listing them down was unnecessary.
Nevertheless, the word 'scientist' represented super advanced technology and was not only limited to weaponry.
