Chapter 65: Core Logos

“And that sums up the fifty-seven basic control mechanisms for the Prometheus Core,” said the Admiral. “Over the course of the next six cycles, we will go over the advanced control mechanisms.”

Admiral Chase had lectured them on the core they were going to be testing. The display behind her was filled with technical documentation, blueprints, and data readouts regarding the core itself.

Eva was almost in tears. Tiamat’s Transcendence was in full blast by this point.

She thought they were going to go look at the cores, play with them, fly them, that sort of thing. Her heart shuddered and her mind blanked the moment the Admiral’s lecture started.

After spending hours on the contract, and hours again on this technical information, Eva felt as though her brain was going to stay numb forever.

But she wasn’t alone. Similar to her, Redstar seemed like she couldn’t really keep up with the science and technical aspects of the project. She was here to pilot cores, not read manuals.
