Within the 50-floor Mechanized Sovereign Tower of the Infinite Space, Jacob's figure appeared on the 40th floor.
The 40th floor was bathed in bright light, with runic markings that emitted neon lights embedded in the walls, and it was designed like a futuristic biotech laboratory. Rows of large glass cells were embedded in the southern wall, filled with translucent liquid.
The moment Jacob appeared, the Lab Assistant-1, Alma, and the previous Soul Ghost King, now dressed in black researcher attire —a Legendary Lord Rank item from the Mechanized Sovereign Tower's 11th floor, one of the ten Weaponized Factory Floors —quickly approached.
Her eyes were filled with reverence and respect as she bowed in front of Jacob, "Master, welcome back!"
From her past self, Alma appeared completely different, and she no longer seemed to have any resentment towards Jacob despite what he had done to her. She was a completely new person, at least in front of Jacob.
