Mo Qiong and the others rode the elevator all the way down, arriving at an extremely spacious assembly workshop.
A massive vehicle standing thirty-five meters tall was parked on a landing frame.
It looked like a mecha, but had not the slightest hint of science fiction about it. It resembled a humanoid crane, yet also an excavator.

"But in reality, we have to consider much more. Take the God of Gaia, for example. That thing could breach containment at any moment.
