We did it.
All cabin lock status have been reconfigured to lock...
But only 72% of compartments are online now.
We still have no information... on the whereabouts of those troops expunged by the space station...
Constructs can adapt to space. All the commandants participating in this mission also have dedicated space equipment.
The life-support system should last them until they're rescued.
But before that, they could only wander alone in space.
...
Let's complete the mission as soon as possible, so we can contact Celica and get everybody home...
I copied the space station's log data while waiting for the lock to activate.
Given that the database was also contaminated, I don't know how much useful information we can find.
I'll leave it to you to filter the data, Liv.
Of course.
The log actually recorded how the space station arrived at this state...
The station failed to stop Punishing Virus from invading its gravity core, which resulted in gravity disorder.
It destroyed the structure and continued to attract nearby Punishing Virus...
A high-density matter was created in the gravity core. It was formed by a large amount of Punishing Virus...
According to the log, this process is called Heteromerization, and this high-density body is hence named Punishing Heteromer.
The scary thing is, these Heteromers can gather and disperse at will while maintaining high coordination with one another.
It was also recorded that a cross-shaped enemy would control nearby Heteromer particles to form various Corrupted that were seen on Earth.
Which means we have been fighting Punishing Virus itself...
Lucia clenches her blade.
...This information is incredibly important to humanity.
Soon, we will have to face more than just information...
All ally signals are moving toward the gravity device in the core.
We must not fall behind.
