Lord's Cluster, Crisis Laboratory 

We arrived at the bunker, which turned out to be an extension of the lab I had previously visited with The Lord and also, at some point, with Zytharion.

This time, we entered from a different side, where the corridor was significantly taller and wider, dozens of people moved through at once.

"The expansion happened faster than anticipated," The Lord explained, turning to me with a grave expression. "We had to add accommodations at the last minute to accommodate everyone."

As we entered the laboratory, I was struck with awe at the sheer scale of the place. It was unlike anything I had ever seen before. The vast expanse stretched out before us, dwarfing even the largest military barracks on Earth where planes are stored.

There were hundreds of workstations scattered throughout the room, each equipped with various testing devices and instruments.
