Li Chen followed Doctor Chen through the Lethal Corridor. After opening the heavy Protective Door, they arrived in another hall.
This hall covered an area of roughly five thousand square meters.
At its center stood a massive hexagonal pillar, surrounded by a hexagonal control console.
Around them were enormous screens. This looked like a control room, or perhaps some kind of Command Room.
"This is the Data Processing Center. The pillar you see is only one part of the Central Supercomputer for the entire Hua Ju Laboratory Headquarters."
"You can think of it as an octopus. This place is merely one of that octopus's tentacles, but obviously, the Central Supercomputer here has far more tentacles."
Doctor Chen noticed Li Chen examining the room and took the initiative to explain.
Li Chen merely nodded casually.
At that moment, a figure appeared before them, blocking their path.
It was a Holographic Projection in the form of a middle-aged man with short hair.
"You cannot proceed any farther, Doctor Chen, Mr. Li Chen."
The middle-aged man's Holographic Projection spoke to Li Chen and Doctor Chen in a gentle, courteous tone.
Li Chen merely gave him a faint glance and immediately recognized him as the physical manifestation of an Artificial Intelligence derived from the supercomputer.
It was similar to Noah, but its level was clearly worlds apart from Noah's.
After all, one was a product of Earth's technology, while the other came from a Tier 3 Universe Civilization.
Noah was a true powerful Artificial Intelligence life-form.
It was essentially not bound by any particular physical appearance.
It could reside in any electronic device.
It could even reside within a person's consciousness.
The Artificial Intelligence before them clearly could not do such things.
It could only manifest under specific conditions, in specific locations.
