Shadow City K, Empire Research Center.
Let's just ignore the eye-catching name on it …
This was the data analysis room in the seventh zone of the research center. Although it was called a 'room', it was actually a spacious computer room the size of a basketball court. The most powerful supercomputers of the Pandora Army and the Avenger Army were connected together and gathered in this room. Dozens of outstanding Schilling technicians worked day and night, comparing the latest data they extracted with the vast sea of data in the memory cores of the Pandora Army commanders. Then, they distributed the data to the larger research teams at the lower levels to analyze and verify the possibility of combining the data, hoping to recover a tiny bit of the Schilling technology of the past. In this research center that operated at full capacity, the results produced every minute were the highest technology that humans on Earth might not be able to achieve in hundreds of years.
The entire analysis room was rectangular in shape and was divided into two parts. In the center of the analysis room, there was a square concave area that was only a few dozen square meters in size, separated by various instruments and energy gratings. It was the most important part of the analysis room, and all the research teams revolved around the data transmitted from this small concave area. Considering the importance of the research in this analysis room, it would not be an exaggeration to say that this small square area was the brain of the entire Empire Research Center.
In the outer zone of the analysis room, there were four orderly work teams that were distributed symmetrically at the four corners of the room. Each work team was formed by more than ten veteran Schilling technicians. They were passionate and tireless, dissecting and arranging the vast amount of data that flashed across the instruments in front of them at an astonishing speed. In their brains, even more massive data flow was being exchanged at high speed through the mental network formed by all the Schilling technicians. These two relatively independent yet coordinated data processing systems were like an astonishingly efficient converter, continuously splicing the information extracted from Visca's memory cores into the data fragments that we already grasped.
When we entered, the entire analysis room had already entered a new wave of work. Even when the two emperors and a large number of higher-ups personally came to inspect, only a few of the main people in charge had the time to turn around and greet them. After these dedicated scientists returned to their positions, we were led to the center of the analysis room by Sives.
Weska, who had arrived a few steps ahead of us, had already entered his' work station '. In the recessed area that was roughly half a meter deep, there was a semi-open hibernation chamber, commonly known as the' eggshell chamber '. Weska was currently half-lying inside, his entire body was covered with data cables. Above his head were three scanning probes that were constantly flashing with light, while the person being scanned was yawning endlessly below.
"Yawn … Brother … I'm so sleepy …"
"The memory core scanning process will create the illusion of drowsiness," Sives reported meticulously like a soldier. "But Lord Weska is awake now, you can ask him anything you like."
"Visca, how do you feel?"
I asked the little girl in front of me curiously. Although I knew that this' memory core scanning 'wasn't something harmful, thanks to the science fiction movies, I couldn't help but think of the Declaration of Human Rights …
"I'm so sleepy … Yawn … And … So sleepy …"
Visca said sleepily, and by the time he said the last sentence, he was already snoring slightly.
I seriously doubted what he meant by the word 'awake' just now …
"Well …" Visca, who had just been described as' awake ', had now fallen asleep just like that. Sives immediately felt awkward. "Theories always have small deviations …"
"She has to undergo this scan every day? It won't be harmful to her body, right? "
"Of course not. On the contrary, this scan will reactivate the subject's memory core, and it's as good as a good deep sleep. Furthermore, Lord Visca only needs to conduct data extraction for less than half an hour every day, and the data extracted is enough for all the departments in the research center to work overtime."
I only felt relieved after hearing his words. Then, I lightly patted Visca's little face who was snoring non-stop, and the latter's lips were slightly curled up in his sleep.
"Didn't you say that you've achieved new results? Bring me there to take a look. "
"Of course, it's in the third experimental field. Please follow me."
* * *
"The third experimental field is a place specially used to test out new weapons or airframes. It has the sturdiest ground and covers all the walls. It's almost indestructible by conventional weapons, and it can withstand any weapon below the level of a warship's main cannon." In a super large hall that was as wide as five or six football fields put together, Sives led us to walk between the various experimental platforms. As the leader of the entire research center, Visca had a slightly proud expression as he introduced everything to us.
Alright, according to convention, an important department like the military research center should be led by the great general Pandora. But just like how you can't expect a certain Emperor Chen to understand the meaning of a V-shaped spaceship formation, you can't expect a certain loli to understand the overall plan, right?
Most of the objects in this experimental field were semi-finished products. Even though they were extremely passionate about their work, the core technology was severely lacking, and even a Schilling Technician could only create these semi-finished products. This was something that the respectable scientists felt extremely ashamed of. But now, after Visca supplemented some crucial data, many things here were gradually perfected, including this … warrior in front of us?
"Schilling Armored Scorpion, or Scorpion for short." Sives proudly knocked on the alloy shell of the tall warrior in front of him, and the crisp sound of metal striking against metal echoed. "Of course, that's not her original name. The name Scorpion is a new name that we gave her, because this warrior's appearance is very similar to the scorpions on Earth."
Err … Scorpion … Alright, that's apt …
A strangely shaped Schilling warrior. Perhaps it was a female Shiring Apostles? Judging from the upper body, that was indeed the case. In front of us was the new warrior, the Xi Ling Armored Scorpion. Her upper body was that of a young woman with shoulder-length curly brown hair, a beautiful face, and a hot body. She wore a pure black streamlined alloy armor. However, I had my reservations about how much protection this armor, which was not much bigger than a vest, could provide. As for the lower body of this beautiful sister … it was a formidable and terrifying mechanical scorpion with a body length of nearly three meters ….
Ferocious, very ferocious …
I didn't know if it was intentional, but the mechanical parts of the lower body of the Schilling Armored Scorpion only covered half of the upper body armor. Most of the body parts were exposed, and the mechanical parts and pipes that reflected the cold metallic light gave off a strange feeling of iron and blood. From a terrifying point of view, I would give it a score of ninety … And on the back of the scorpion's body, the only part that was covered in armor was a huge blood-red military emblem. Under the emblem were the words "ZK-0001" written in rigid lines, and at the end of the three-meter-long mechanical scorpion's tail was a spindle-shaped "poison needle" wrapped in alloy armor. I had ample reason to believe that this thing was a deadly weapon …
"Alright, does this count as a violent aesthetic?"
I said with a smirk after I collected myself from the shock of seeing such a wild beauty.
The designers of the Xiling Empire were really creative …
"This is the normal combat form of the Armored Scorpion." Xi Wei introduced the characteristics of the Armored Scorpion to me. "Under normal circumstances, it can retract its combat limbs into a different dimension and change into a normal body. This will help reduce its body size and make it easier to transport soldiers on a small scale."
Shallow Shallow lightly poked my arm and said softly, "Ah Jun, another beauty!"
"… You brat!"
Unlike a layman like me who could only watch from the sidelines, Sandora and Pandora were genuine experts. The two of them circled around the Armored Scorpion that was in standby mode as if it was asleep. Then, Sandora ordered, "Get it to move."
"Yes," Xi Wei replied, then turned around and pressed a few buttons on the platform beneath the Armored Scorpion.
After a series of sizzling sounds of energy flowing, the magnetic shackles that were used to secure the test subject's six legs (…) all sank into the ground beneath the platform, and the mechanical parts on the lower body of the large scorpion began to glow with a faint blue light.
When the blue light completely disappeared, the Armored Scorpion slowly opened its eyes.
