Shadow City Research Center was a building with a bizarre spatial structure. Most of its areas were connected to spatial distortion devices. Though the building appeared to consist of only a few towers, it actually contained unimaginably vast spaces. The most important laboratories, sample hangars, and Data Centers were all located within encrypted different dimensions. The connection points between these independent spaces and the Research Center could be a door floating in midair, a numbered wall, or even several specific floor tiles. As long as one carried the teleportation code and walked over, one would arrive in some unfathomable Hyperspace Laboratory.
This marvelous multilayered spatial structure had been designed by Tawell herself. One purpose was to allow large-scale projects to be completed within the Research Center. The second was safety. The projects Imperial scientists worked on were basically inseparable from weaponry. If the military laboratories were not placed in different dimensions, I genuinely worried those maniacs would blow up Shadow City one day...
Those different-dimensional spaces without specialized functions, serving purely as broad, stable experimental grounds, were called "Rift Laboratories." There were nearly a hundred such Rift Laboratories. The various facilities Tawell had built based on data submitted by Abyss Shilin, as well as the pair of wrecks we had dragged back, were all located in Rift Laboratory No. 1. At the same time, this laboratory was now the foundational laboratory for the "Bridge-Building Project." It was registered under the Deep Diving Project Department, personally overseen by Tawell and directly supervised by Sandora.
The dim but not pitch-black chaotic space stretched endlessly, making it impossible to judge the true scale of this different dimension. At the center of Rift Laboratory No. 1 floated a moon-sized luminous object. It was the laboratory's Energy Furnace and, to some extent, its light source.
