804 Retrovirus

The man who had gone to get the tablet returned only seconds later and placed the device on the table. 

"This device came with a security scanner. I have set it to look for anything that is not in our coding language and then locked the device to read-only memory, so nothing on it can be altered without destroying the device." He explained. 

Nico placed a plain holographic emitter, the sort used for watching movies, on top of the device, and Max again sensed confusion from everyone in the room. 

"I am going to guess that Flat Space technology is not part of your developmental path. Don't worry about it. It's a storage solution and nearly impossible to explain in the time that we have available." Nico told them while the device beeped rapidly as it scanned her emitter. 

[0 Percent Compliant. Alien device detected. Scanning cancelled.] The device informed them, and Nico put the emitter away.
