Liskarm

...

Why are there so many Reunion members here?!

Reunion Member

Aaargh!

Franka

...

Am I the only one who thinks that there are more and more of them coming?

Reunion Member

Ugh!!

Liskarm

Nope. It's clear that they have more reinforcements coming.

Amiya

Curses... We still haven't had a chance to avenge them yet...!

Liskarm

They ended up finding us first.

Franka, look.

Over by the east exit, I think those are Reunion's casters hiding over there.

Franka

A lot of them approaching from the central passage as well as from the high-rises to our sides...

...They're trying to sneak over while pretending like they haven't noticed us yet.

But, we're on top of the roof...

No matter how many they send at us, they'll be doomed if they get knocked over...

I feel like they're insulting my intelligence by launching an attack as brazen as this...

Amiya

Is Reunion launching their offensive?

All operators, regroup!

Franka

Wait, I think I just saw...

Isn't that the Reunion commander we ran into earlier?

Skullshatterer

...

... Rhodes Island.

Did you turn her over to Lungmen?

Amiya

...

(Franka, we have to hold back the Reunion forces first!)

(We'll have to make our way down once they're too afraid to keep attacking us!)

(We'll have to spread out the battlefield for now!)

Franka

(Understood. We'll be doing a hit and run then!)

Amiya

What does it have to do with you?

Skullshatterer

...How dare you!

...

My comrades, attaaack!

2. After Operation

54 lines
Amiya

This is the last wave of pursuers!

Reunion Member

...Aaargh!

Liskarm

All clear!

Confirming that it's safe over here!

Franka

Where's the enemy commander?

Liskarm

...Not with their main force.

Franka

The enemy is lurking... we're being followed and watched.

Are they trying to wear us down until they have the perfect opportunity to strike?

Amiya

Reunion is no stranger to sneak attacks.

We learned this the hard way at Chernobog.

Let's fall back quickly...

Liskarm

I can't guarantee the safety of the escape route.

We'll be in danger if they start demolishing the nearby buildings to block the road.

Amiya

Hurry, let's see what other routes we can take. The stealthier, the better!

Liskarm

Amiya, how about taking that staircase to our 4 o'clock down?

Franka

That's a difficult route.

Reunion Member

Aaargh! Rhodes Island!

Amiya

It's an ambush! Watch out!

Skullshatterer

Continue the chase.

Don't give them any room to breathe.

Misha

Madam...

There are some Infected kids... still in the slums.

If possible...

I hope that you can take care of them...

Ch'en

Our duty is to protect Lungmen.

The Infected are not considered citizens of Lungmen.

Misha

...

Ch'en

...

However, citizens or not, the Infected still belong to Lungmen.

I have no obligation to promise you anything, but I will perform my duty.

After all...

Misha

They said they used to...

Ch'en

It's something we've always been doing.

Misha

...

Thank you...

Ch'en

...

Do you know why we've been searching for you?

Misha

...I'm not sure.

I can't think of any reason why you'd want me.

But I have a feeling...

That this isn't about me...

...It's about my parents.

Ch'en

...Yes.

Your father was the most famous scientist in Chernobog.

As well as one of the most important political figures there.

Perhaps, there's something you might know...

...

But even if that isn't the case...

We cannot allow you to fall into Reunion's hands.

W

Hehe. I've found you, L.G.D.

Don't take this personally...

But I have a very interesting plot in my hands.

To make things more entertaining, I'll need you all to participate.

Now, let us begin.
