Clearly, Erik could not fix the computers or the equipnt, as it would need too much fine work, and even if he sohow did, the data was probably lost. Only that room had been spared by ti and water.
"The system's going to walk through restoring the power," Erik said to the others. "The reactor with the brain crystal is still working, but we need to reconnect it to the rest of the lab."
[Start by creating conductive plant matter to serve as wiring. Route it from the reactor chamber to the main distribution hub located three levels below your current position.]
Erik called upon his Verdant Architect brain crystal power once more, creating small plants. The vines snaked through the walls and floors.
Following the paths the system showed, Erik also connected them to the electrical system. Whenever he completed one section, he turned the plants into the materials the biological supercomputer showed, albeit Erik didn't even know what they were.
The verdant architect worked in a peculiar way.
It allowed him to change the molecules of plants, but only if he knew how the target materials were structured.
This was relatively easy with the most common materials, but the more specific ones needed the system's help, as it was in this case.
Erik had to use his Hydra's heads once more to do this task. The others observed him. "Better to let him focus," Mira said.
He went through the laboratory, connecting sections, bypassing damaged components, and creating new pathways for the electric power.
[Now transform the plant in this section into proper conductive material. I will tell you what you have to do.]
Erik did as instructed. He changed the plants into copper and other tals, completing the circuit between the reactor and the laboratory's systems.
Everything humd to life; so light flickered from red to green. A low vibration ran through the laboratory. Light panels flickered, then steadied, bathing the facility in artificial brightness for the first ti in centuries.
"It worked," Martha said, looking around at the now-illuminated laboratory.
The restoration revealed the true scale of the facility. What looked like shadowy ruins now revealed a complex research center with multiple levels and sections.
Erik exhaled. "The main systems are back online. We have power, oxygen, and access."
Of course, only the basics worked. The computers were still out, aning the system would need to access the room directly.
Erik moved toward the sealed room. With the electrical systems restored throughout the facility, the biological supercomputer could now interface with the door's locking chanism.
Erik asked.
[Yes. I need a physical connection to bypass the security protocols, since there is no kind of software I can use here.]
