Chapter 21: Battleship - 2
Ruel, with Mei Feng close behind, decided to take a proper look at the Control Center.
Earlier, they had merely passed through, but now, stepping inside, the sheer scale and complexity of the technology hit him like a physical force.
"Whoa..." Ruel breathed, his eyes widening as he took in the scene. It was unlike anything he had ever seen, even in movies.
The room was dominated by a massive, wraparound holographic display that shimmered with constellations of glowing symbols and intricate schematics.
Consoles lined the walls, their surfaces alive with pulsating lights and shifting data streams.
It looked, as he'd thought before, like the command center of a Star Wars mothership, a symphony of futuristic technology that defied comprehension.
Holographic interfaces floated in mid-air, responding to unseen commands with fluid, elegant movements.
Ruel reached out tentatively, his fingers brushing against a shimmering display, and a cascade of information flooded his vision.
He recoiled slightly, overwhelmed by the sheer volume of data.
He glanced at Mei Feng, and her expression mirrored his own: a mixture of awe, bewilderment, and a healthy dose of "what the hell is going on?"
Her mouth was slightly agape, her eyes darting from one impossible interface to another.
