(Forces his way through dozens of guards himself) Aah...!

That is the Construct... We cannot have him here...

...?!

The guards all leap toward Kamui one after another...

The ground cracks open, and the guards drag Kamui into the rift...

I will take my time with him once I am done with Gray Raven. His frame is... interesting.

Kamui

(Defeats the last guard) ...

I was careless... I've gotta find a way back. They can't win without me!

...What's this?

The Punishing Virus concentration in the air is... rising?!

————

This way, the Punishing Virus will soon corrupt the power system completely.

The Ascendants' will take down this Golden Vortex...

Yada yada, what have you done this time?

(Roland dodges Kamui's strike) ...

(Lifts his weapon) Looks like you've fully recovered.

(Quietly moves away) Well... I couldn't have done it with your "assistance," Babylonian.

...

Who would've thought that there would come a day when we join forces...

What the hell are you talking about...

Roland turns and hides within a few massive shadowy figures. Multiple elite Corrupted strike at Kamui.

Getting help again...? Your tricks are getting old.

Roland cuts through the metal wall and leaves Kamui behind with the elite Corrupted.

The special equipment from Strike Hawk has detected that the Punishing Virus is destroying the power supply.

I knew Roland was up to no good sneaking around here... It's broken...

If the power supply is infected, the engine will soon overclock... Knowing what the Punishing Virus can do, the Golden Vortex is not going to last.

Gray Raven is still up there...

...

(Blocks an elite Corrupted's shot) ...

I have to enter a system channel to delay the Punishing Virus infection... but I can't just leave these Corrupted alone.

I guess it's time for a dual monitor setup.

Isolate my M.I.N.D. while transmitting the frame's visual input to it.

That way, I can keep controlling my frame to fight while I hack into the power supply. It's like logging into two accounts for an MMO at the same time! Piece of cake for a pro gamer like me.
