()||:Inside a Paradeus factory, Eschborn District, Frankfurt.
()||:At the signal hub where every corner within the factory is visible on the monitors, it becomes apparent that the facility is almost completely paralyzed after the dust settles.
NPC-Nemhran(0)Nemhran80,90||:...
()||:Watching the playback of DEFY's entry and withdrawal thoughtfully, Nemhran ponders how they discovered this base and why they conducted this seemingly pointless operation.
NPC-Nemhran(0)Nemhran80,90||:Ashley, report on the status of the factory.
()||:Ignoring the interruption from the system alert, Ashley forces the computer to compile all the data through stacks of pop-up windows.
NytoWhite(0)Ashley0,50||:Yes, Sister Nemhran.+Currently, 46% of the factory equipment is damaged, and the assembly lines and screening center are almost completely destroyed...+ As for our manpower...
()||AVG_2023Slow_Keyboard_Error:Beep! A different alarm suddenly starts flashing in the center of the screen—+An alarm from the Bee Sting System.
NytoWhite(0)Ashley0,50||:Sister Nemhran, the Bee Sting System just intercepted some important information.
NPC-Nemhran(0)Nemhran80,90||:...Open it.
NytoWhite(0)Ashley0,50||:Yes, Sister Nemhran.
()||AVG_keyboardtype_sci:Ashley pauses her report and inputs the password...+The encrypted text appears on the large screen. The illegible gibberish is translated into concise words and sentences in Nemhran's eyes.
NPC-Nemhran(0)Nemhran80,90||:...
NytoWhite(0)Ashley0,50||:Sister Nemhran, is there anything I can do?
NPC-Nemhran(0)Nemhran80,90||:Lead a team to take stock of any supplies that can be salvaged from the factory and prepare to move them.+And get someone to stay behind and clean everything up.
NytoWhite(0)Ashley0,50||:Yes, Sister.
()||AVG_door_elecport:All the white Nytos present quietly file out of the room, not daring to make a peep.+Only when everyone else has gone does Nemhran starts analyzing the information intercepted by the Bee Sting System.+It is a list of newly acquired books at the Frankfurt District Library.
()||:The book title that has triggered the alarm is... "Human Intelligence Research (18th Edition)".
()||AVG_keyboardtype_sci:Nemhran gathers all the information and sends it over to Laplace.+A few minutes later, she receives a comms request from her.
NPC-Laplace(11)Laplace<通讯框>||AVG_tele_connect:I want the physical copy.
NPC-Nemhran(0)Nemhran80,90||:All we have at the moment is the fact that it has appeared in the library; we know nothing about the date of publication, word count, or contents.+I have already located the book, and I'll send someone to extract it for you later.
NPC-Laplace(13)Laplace<通讯框>||:Sure.
()||0.5AVG_tele_disconnect:Beep. The call ends.

()||AVG_Team_Running:The Nytos scramble around the ruins, gathering any supplies that are still usable.
NytoWhite(0)Ashley0,50||:Make it quick. Load everything that still works onto the truck. Don't miss anything.
Nyto(0)Black Nyto||:Understood.
()||ClothingUp:Ashley takes one last look at the Nyto on duty, gives one last instruction, then hurries off to the next location that Nemhran has ordered her to attend to.
Nyto(0)Black Nyto||:...
()||AVG_Cloak_Whoosh:When Ashley has walked off into the distance, the black Nyto dumps what she is carrying and heads deep into the base.

AR18(2)AR-180,100<通讯框>||AVG_tele_connect:DEFY has withdrawn safely. You're up.
HK416Mod(0)416||:Copy that.
()||0.5AVG_tele_disconnect:
UMP9Mod(0)UMP9||:Humph~ The copy of "Human Intelligence Research (18th Edition)" in Frankfurt Library has already been locked onto.
UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:They took the bait pretty quickly.
HK416Mod(0)416||:Don't lower your guard. Prepare to hack the system.
HK416Mod(0);UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:By the way, Agent Vigilant, just a gentle reminder that you're almost overclocking Gr G11's processor.
HK416Mod(0)416||:She's doing fine.
G11Mod(0)Gr G11||:I-I'm doing fine...
()||:Following 416's strategy, even Gr G11's neural cloud is being used to provide auxiliary processing power.
HK416Mod(0)416||:We are ready to crack the code. We should be able to buy you about 30 minutes.+But considering how little we know about the Bee Sting System, you may only have 15 minutes in reality.
()||ClothingUp:Before she infiltrates the Bee Sting System, UMP45 gives 416 a long look.
UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:You're so nervous you're making me nervous as well.
HK416Mod(0)416;UMP45Mod(0)||:You should be nervous about this.
HK416Mod(0);UMP9Mod(3)UMP9||:Take a deep breath~+Now let's go, 45!
HK416Mod(0)416||:Check in regularly. I'll pull you out by force the moment you fail to check in on time.
()||AVG_keyboardtype_sciBGM_Empty:UMP45 and UMP9 close their eyes and descend to Level II...

()||BGM_ev2408_StungtotheMorrow:...+Outer layer of the Bee Sting System, Level II.+Having made their entry successfully, UMP45 and UMP9 proceed stealthily through the data network.
UMP9Mod(2)UMP9||:45, why is 416 acting so weird?
UMP9Mod(2);UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:Didn't you just praise her for being professional and reassuring yesterday?
UMP9Mod(0)UMP9;UMP45Mod(0)||:I said it to lighten up the mood...
UMP9Mod(0);UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:I think she got rattled.
UMP9Mod(0)UMP9;UMP45Mod(0)||:By what?
UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:Probably what happened in Avernus...+We'll talk about it when we're out. We've already triggered the system's outermost defense.
()||AVG_keyboardtype_sci:UMP45 takes out the decryption key. The number dials turn rapidly several times, then they are through.
UMP9Mod(0)UMP9||:That was quick. 15 minutes should be more than enough for us!
UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:Spoken too soon.
()||ClothingUp:UMP45 points at an object that is glowing faintly in the distance.
UMP9Mod(0)UMP9||:Is that... some kind of confidential document?
UMP9Mod(0);UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:No, that is another firewall.
UMP9Mod(2)UMP9;UMP45Mod(0)||:This system seems to have a classic matryoshka structure with layers upon layers of defenses. Let's just hope the information we're looking for isn't on the very inside...
UMP9Mod(2);UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:Wanna bet which layer we'll find the information about the Commander?
UMP9Mod(3)UMP9;UMP45Mod(0)||:I hope it's the next one!
UMP9Mod(3);UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:I'm guessing it's at least six layers in.
UMP9Mod(4)UMP9||:Huh?
()||Select:UMP45 chuckles. Then she concentrates on the task and starts heading toward the firewall that's blocking their access to the next layer...
