John glanced once at Igor, who gestured for John to step forwards. The Gamer, Rave, and Aclysia all entered the room. They stepped onto slanted ground. The floor in the cylindrical room gradually rose towards the centre. There was no direct illumination. The humming of machinery and the constant little sounds of flowing liquids filled the air. They echoed from a network of steel pipes that ran from the walls, across the ceiling, towards a red container in the centre of the room.
The container was the primary source of light in the room. It pulsed constantly, like a faint heartbeat. Intense lines of green glow travelled endlessly around the glass surface of the container. It made the heartbeat feel all the more real, jumping and falling like the monitors one found in hospitals. The rise and fall was sharp but mild.
