Aggressive slashes and pursuing gunfire interweave like a torrential downpour.
The Nozzle unit is completely defenseless against such a fierce offensive.
After another precisely coordinated attack, the Nozzle's defenses are completely shattered. The massive machine staggers backward before crashing to the ground.
Hmm?
Unlike other enemies, the Nozzle does not immediately vanish after its destruction. Noticing this, Lee crouches next to the machine and connects his terminal to its core, reviewing its data.
That's what I thought.
This Nozzle's core contains special, encrypted data. According to my preliminary review, this data is directly linked to the source of the interference.
If we can successfully decrypt it, we might be able to obtain information about the interference source and locate its whereabouts.
Let me borrow your modified terminal for a moment, Commandant.
Liv, I'm transmitting the decrypted information to you. Incorporate this data to survey the facility and try to locate the interference source.
Okay.
The battle temporarily subsides. As you track the interference source, Lucia finally asks the question that has been on her mind for some time.
Why... is Lee in his Palefire frame?
Lucia nods gently, a hint of confusion visible on her face.
It seems my appearance is being distorted in everyone else's vision and showing up as "Palefire".
Unclear... Fortunately, it hasn't affected my actual capabilities.
The decryption is almost complete. How are things on your end, Liv?
Success! I've confirmed the target's location!
Commandant?
