He was mapping out the camera placements, the guard positions, and the security access ports.
A faint, almost imperceptible smirk touched Serena's lips.
This Gatekeeper Hound was exactly as sharp as she suspected.
The group soon arrived in front of Specimen Seven's Legacy Bio-Chamber.
It was a waist-high, silver-gray rectangular cryo-transit unit.
The exterior was plated in a specialized alloy, hooked up to several cryogenic tubes and data ports.
An independent data screen was mounted beside it.
The screen was flashing wildly with abnormal frequency warnings.
Director Kaelen hurriedly gestured to it. "Madam Panacea, right here."
Serena lazily set down her medical case. Following the ship's protocol, she pulled out a scanner and plugged it into the chamber's interface.
She began running diagnostics and data comparisons on the Legacy Bio-Chamber.
Her movements looked casual, but they were blindingly fast.
Several sets of data popped onto her screen.
Serena glanced at them and immediately understood the situation.
This wasn't a natural system fluctuation. It was manual sabotage.
Whoever did it was brilliant.
They hadn't actually destroyed the equipment. Instead, they had applied a microscopic disruption to a data port that already had a minor flaw.
The interference was minimal, but it was just enough to trigger the ship's security anomalies without allowing them to pinpoint the true cause.
And because they didn't dare risk Specimen Seven's fragile stability...
They had no choice but to hire her.
Serena lowered her eyes, her fingertips resting on the edge of the chamber as a faint smile curved her lips.
This Gatekeeper Hound definitely had some serious skills.
As she continued running diagnostics on the chamber, she casually assessed her surroundings.
The security in here was infinitely stricter than outside.
