The various guardian cores continued to surround the airplane, but none of them attacked or made any sudden movements. They still seemed stuck on that same system message—unable to update the core inside the airplane—circling around it in slow patterns without showing any intention of interfering further.
Rean carefully adjusted the airplane's position, making sure not to bump into any of the worker cores floating near the massive light pillar structure. Even though the cores themselves didn't react aggressively, their presence alone made navigation slightly tricky due to how densely packed they were around the structure.
Eventually, he brought the airplane to a complete stop just five meters away from the surface of the enormous structure, close enough to clearly see the details carved into it. There was a worker core directly in front of them, almost in their path, but Rean simply ignored it after confirming it wasn't reacting.
