Beep. Beep.
The sound of electronic instruments echoed dully through the underground world of Karamat.
These gigantic hidden constructs from the Golden Age occupied tens of thousands of acres. Countless cultivation chambers filled with mysterious medicinal fluid were arranged within them, displaying hundreds of thousands of naked bodies.
The genetic engineering process first used vast computational resources and reverse engineering to calculate every resource required for genetic modification. Then, using the Salamander Template, it optimized the process and achieved mass production of key genetic components.
Calling this place a genetic modification terrace—
Would be less accurate than calling it a parts factory.
Drones of alien technology floated through the air, continuously emitting scanning beams. Doctors in white followed behind them, recording batch after batch of data before archiving it.
Numerous [Warp Distortion Detectors] were arranged throughout the facility. One could be seen almost every few dozen meters.
[Abnormal Energy Elimination System activated. No detection.] [Continuing scan.]
The [Abnormal Energy Elimination System] was repeatedly filtering and searching for even the slightest possible Warp energy contamination.
Large numbers of patrolling soldiers worked with "war mechs" to scan the surrounding environment. Every inch of the area was scanned countless times. Even cloaked nanotechnology could not escape the direct scrutiny of the war mechs' various composite scanners.
[Zone A scan complete. Rescan in ten minutes.] [Received.]
The soldiers who had finished their patrol continued down the dimly lit corridor with their war mechs.
At the end of the corridor lay the heart of the laboratory complex.
Countless laboratories had been built within a deep shaft like a celestial sinkhole. Hundreds—perhaps even more than a thousand unfinished laboratories—were stacked layer upon layer, descending into unfathomable depths. Inside them came the sounds of machinery grinding against bone. Massive
