A metallic device shaped like a circular disk begins to glow and there is air distortion and then there is a resounding hum and vibration through the facility before a stable gateway is formed between both locations. Five people step through one by one and appear at the remote location unharmed.
They wait a minute and then return back into the main facility via the portal.

He looked over the departments quickly, trying to get a sense of which ones had higher budgets, especially if any seemed abnormally high. He also tried to identify data management or cyber security personnel, looking for upper-level assistants.

It’s a lot of data but it becomes apparent over time and with the speed he can access it, that it is junk data.Babble wrote: ↑Wed Apr 30, 2025 9:09 amIt was a lot of data to process. He felt lost, overwhelmed. Arturo took a moment to pull back and refocus.

A message appeared or was sent, however his mind interpreted it <You are not supposed to be here.>

Re: Acquisitions (Day 5 EE)

“Definitely liked what I saw, since we have found differing ways to accomplish similar ends. Gurl, I would be open to starting the conversation. I just need a moment to run a few things by our legal, Cipher will remain here if you need anything. Enjoy the refreshments,” she responded.
