Because we don't have access authority to her M.I.N.D., we'll have to brute force it...
This is...!
A form of energy is trying to invade Karen's M.I.N.D.
Energy?
I currently cannot discern its constituents... but this energy is overloading her M.I.N.D. and causing it to overheat.
If this goes on, Karen might...
Yes, Commandant... B-but Karen's situation requires immediate attention as well!
What do we need to do?
Like I said, I cannot discern the properties of that energy. But at the very least, her M.I.N.D. must be cooled off first.
We need to help Karen's frame sleep to temporarily pause her M.I.N.D., then wait for support or help.
But the issue is that, even though I've been externally sending in sleep commands, that energy is disrupting its execution.
There is, but it's a risky choice.
The situation is dire. Even if it has high risk, we have no choice.
Right—we can force a sleep command from inside Karenina's M.I.N.D. by connecting with it.
Specifically, by using my operation system as a bridge to connect Karenina and someone else's M.I.N.D., we can let the two consciousnesses briefly connect.
That way, the other person can enter Karenina's M.I.N.D. and assist in forcing a sleep command.
So it'll be like injecting immunocytes into a body?
Yes, Lee's metaphor is quite apt. But at the same time, this requires the linking of two M.I.N.D.s, so there will be a high chance of coming into contact with that unknown energy.
I'm sorry... but I have no suitable countermeasures at the moment.
I'll take that risk for Karen.
No, I should do it.
Currently, we'll have to stay here for an unknown period of time. The Corrupted might attack, and whether it be defending or attacking, long-ranged support will be better than melee for holding our position.
And we have the guidance of Commandant's Mind Beacon. That should lower the risk.
Okay, but be careful... I'll leave Karenina in your hands.
...Mhm.
Lee, help Bianca protect both Commandant and Liv.
Of course.
