Traveling through time, I'm making pancakes in Warhammer

After a series of prompt sounds, the elevator stopped at the door of Yoton on time, and the technical workers who had been waiting there immediately went up to perform maintenance on the elevator components.

A worker opened the elevator door to check the seal of the device.

Jesse winked at Howard and Arabelle, then put on his air filter and led them toward the open door.

"After entering the synchronous orbit and leaving the elevator, we haven't fully entered the airport yet. We still need to go through an identity verification..." Jesse was introducing the two people to the things they needed to pay attention to as they walked. As a result, when they were halfway there, a porter who was pushing a cart with his head down suddenly jumped out. Jesse was busy talking to Howard and Arabelle and didn't pay attention, so he bumped into the man.

Jesse was knocked back two steps, and the worker was knocked to the ground. The cart he was pushing slipped out of his hand, and all the boxes on it fell to the ground.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you look at the road?" Jesse blamed angrily.

But after being knocked down, the worker did not get up or answer, but kept his head down, as if he was asleep.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" A worker nearby rushed over, pulled the worker up from the ground, pressed his head down, and apologized to Jesse repeatedly: "This guy seems to be sick recently. Can you forgive him this time?"

Jesse was busy getting on the elevator so he didn't argue with the worker. He just said, "If you're sick, get treated immediately. Otherwise, it will affect your health and your work." Then he took Howard and Arabelle around him.

"There is another identity verification before entering the airport, which involves fingerprints and irises. Just watch how I do it and follow my example..." Jesse didn't take it to heart and continued to explain the rules to the two.

Finally, the three of them entered the freight elevator and the elevator door slowly closed.

Howard, wearing an air filter, saw through the light green filter and the gradually closing elevator door that the worker was still standing there with his head hung, while the worker who helped him out was moving the box that had fallen to the ground back onto the cart.

Seeing that he was still in a daze, the worker who came later patted him on the back and said, "Are you in love or heartbroken recently? Why are you always grinning foolishly by yourself..."

The elevator door is completely closed.

What followed was a strong feeling of being overweight. The powerful gravity pressed Howard so hard that he couldn't straighten his back. He seemed to hear wailing from every joint of his body.

At this time, Arabelle reached out and supported Howard's ribs. Howard was finally able to grab something to support himself.

The journey took less than ten minutes, but Howard felt like it lasted a century.

When the overweight caused by the acceleration finally disappeared, Howard was pale and sweating, and even his breathing became difficult.

Unfortunately, he was still in the warehouse and couldn't remove the air filter.

"Ding!"

The elevator stopped completely, and then there were friction and knocking sounds from the four corners of the cargo hold. This was the airport's fixing device locking the cargo hold. After the locking was completed, the elevator door opened.

Jesse led the two out of the elevator. At the same time, two people came in from outside to confirm and count the ore in the cabin. However, they did not react to the three guests who came with the ore, as if they were used to it.

"You can take off the filter now," said Jesse.

Howard pulled off the mask on his face. It was filled with sweat and breathing inside was as difficult as breathing in water that was halfway up his nose.

Jesse and Arabelle did not urge him, but waited for Howard to recover. After Howard's condition improved a little, Jesse continued to lead the two of them forward.

This is a huge enclosed curved corridor, which is the transition area between the main body of the space elevator and the outer airport. Normally, Howard should feel weightless when he reaches the synchronous orbit, but when Howard walks here, he feels the gravity is almost the same as on the ground.

Howard knew this was because the airport had artificial gravity, and it wasn't the effect of gravity simulated by centrifugal force.

There was a huge mechanical door every few meters in the corridor. The entry and exit of goods and personnel had to be registered here. Soon they arrived at the entrance of the airport. There were three doors in total. The middle door was responsible for scanning the goods entering and leaving, and the small doors on both sides were responsible for verifying the identities of the people entering and leaving.

Jesse walked in front of the two of them. He first swiped his magnetic card in the card swiping area, then pressed his hand on the touch screen to record his fingerprint, then raised his head and looked directly at the camera on the door frame.

The camera emitted a red light and scanned Jesse's pupils, then the light turned green and Jesse passed the gate.

Arabelle also followed this procedure to pass the access control.

When Howard arrived, he took out the ID card Jesse had given him in the car and swiped it on the machine, then started the fingerprint verification.

Fingerprint verification is passed, and the next step is iris verification.

But when the scanning beam passed through Howard's pupils, it did not turn green, but made two "beep" sounds.

"Error, please try again after 'beep——'."

The camera's built-in voice broadcast device issued a cold prompt tone.

So Howard took two steps back and left the testing area. After the "beep" sound indicating the reset of the testing process, Howard performed identity verification again.

ID card verification, normal; fingerprint verification, normal; iris verification, error.

"Error, please try again after 'beep——'."

Cold sweat oozed from Howard's forehead. He gritted his teeth and took two steps back. After the prompt sounded, he performed identity verification again.

ID card verification, normal; fingerprint verification, normal; iris verification, error.

"Error, please try again after 'beep——'."

After three consecutive failed verifications, people around began to look over here, and whispers began to be heard. Further away, the patrolling airport guards seemed to have noticed the abnormality and were walking towards this side.

Jesse and Arabelle's expressions changed at the same time. Howard swallowed, took two steps back, and began the fourth verification.

ID card verification, normal; fingerprint verification, normal;

Iris verification...

The scanning beam slowly swept across Howard's eye sockets from top to bottom. Howard squeezed the Ohm Messiah in his pocket with his hand, and then the scanning device made an error "beep" sound.

"Error, please try again after 'beep——'."

"What's going on?" The patrolling guard quickened his pace and walked towards here. Arabelle suddenly said something to Jesse, and then the two of them split into two groups. Jesse cut in line and ran out after verifying his identity at the exit, while Arabelle walked towards the guard head-on, then her legs went weak and she fell into the guard's arms.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey?" The guard was caught off guard by Arabelle's sudden embrace, but when he saw that it was a woman, he immediately showed his gentlemanly demeanor and supported her. Then he asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"I..." Arabelle put her hands on the guard's shoulders and said, "I feel a little dizzy..."

Then she glanced back and winked wildly at Howard.

At this time, Jesse also came to Howard's side. He pulled Howard's sleeve, wanting to take Howard away while Arabelle attracted the guards' attention.

Howard took two steps back, but he didn't leave or re-verify. Instead, he said to the employee behind him, "How about you go first?"

When Arabelle realized Howard hadn't left, her eyes widened. She looked at Howard with a hint of anger, but she had to continue acting. So she simply grabbed the guard with one hand and covered her chest with the other, coughing. "I... I feel so stuffy in my chest... I can't breathe..."

While Arabelle was struggling with the guard, the guy behind Howard walked into the testing area and started the test.

ID card verification, normal; fingerprint verification, normal;

Iris verification...

“Ding Ding, error, please try again after “Ding——”.”

When the error message appeared, everyone was stunned.

Then Jesse pushed away the person who was still verifying and started the second verification, and his irises also showed no match.

Then the conclusion is obvious, the machine is broken.

At least that's how it looks on the surface.

After discovering that the instrument was broken, Arabelle, who had been delicately clinging to the guard's shoulder, suddenly recovered. She pushed aside the guard who had eagerly offered to take her to the lounge, picked up her fallen hat, put it on, and said coldly, "Thanks, but I feel much better now."
