3 3 301 DialogEnable Wanshi stood frozen in the middle of the outer corridor in the Star of Life, staring around blankly.
4 4 301 Both sides of the corridor are stacked with various medical equipment for surgeries on Constructs. They do not require aseptic processing the whole time like equipment for human surgeries, and are casually folded over each other in the corridor.
5 5 301 Several special connecting wires stabilizing the Inver-Device hang down from the edge of the folding equipment. They are sorted as Attacker, Support, and Tank.
6 6 301 After selecting the equipment they need, several assistants open the safety lock of the folding equipment with the terminal and head to separate maintenance rooms with them.
7 7 301 After the equipment is taken away, the white pattern engraved on the walls of the corridor that were blocked by the equipment came into Wanshi's eyes. He looks up along the pattern, the huge icon of the Star of Life is carved above his head.
8 8 301 Wanshi looks at the icon above in silence. As time passes by, he stands still.
9 9 301 AniZhuanchangBegin The silence is finally interrupted by a rapid beep from the terminal of Wanshi. He takes out the terminal, stares at it for a while, then turns and leaves the corridor.
20 19 301 AniZhuanchangEnd The Construct's voice gradually sinks to a whisper and his body begins to tremble. Seeing this, Wanshi puts the terminal aside and reaches out to comfort him. Holding Wanshi's hands, the Construct stops trembling and continues.
21 20 301 Construct The collapsed building pierced our captain's body and countless Corrupted flooded in and ripped him into pieces.
22 21 301 Construct Rutland and I kept shivering upon the screech of our captain. He screamed and threw himself at the Corrupted, trying to pull our leader out.
23 22 301 Construct However, I ran away after hearing the screech. After turning around, an explosion came from behind. The debris and the remains of the Corrupted cut through my body and the impact of the blast knocked me down.
24 23 301 Construct Then I saw Rutland's head with electric sparks rolling down to my feet from behind. Vital fluid that spilled out of his features soaked my boots...
25 24 301 Listening to the confession of the Construct in front of him, Wanshi clenches his hands even harder.
26 25 301 Construct I never found scrapping to be that scary. After all, there's no "death" for Constructs. But I still felt the worst fear when looking at the grim faces of my partners as they were scrapped.
27 26 301 Construct My partners who were talking to each other a few seconds ago turned into scrap metal in the blink of an eye. The searing pain spread from my torso all over my body, and only pain and fear were left in the M.I.N.D.
28 27 301 Construct If the other squads hadn't arrived, I'm afraid I'd...
29 28 301 Wanshi That's all in the past...
30 29 301 Construct Sure, it's all over!
31 30 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Construct But soon I'll be assigned to a new team. It's only a matter of time before I return to the battlefield... to that nightmare again...
35 33 301 AniZhuanchangEnd AniZhuanchangBegin 1 Professor Wanshi, you've got the courage to expose the lies. But I'm afraid it's not the right answer. 1
48 43 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Listening to the confession of the Construct, Wanshi recalls those words he has heard in the past.
49 44 301 Closing his eyes, he sees the desperate look on the Construct's face after knowing the lies, the inevitable ending and the professor's final gesture of silence.
50 45 301 Wanshi tries to find some words to comfort the Construct, but everything he can think of points to an answer that he has known long ago.
51 46 301 Wanshi ...
52 47 301 Wanshi The next time you can't hold on, just activate the recall, alright?
53 48 301 Wanshi Get rid of the wounded frame and let your M.I.N.D. return to Babylonia.
54 49 301 Wanshi Like returning to the state before your birth, protected and warm.
55 50 301 Construct But this is just denial...
56 51 301 Wanshi Though it's an escape from reality that would lead to the deviation of M.I.N.D., there's no shame in following your instincts.
57 52 301 Construct Is that so?
58 53 301 Wanshi Yeah, humans have set up such means of insurance for the Constructs so that you can step into the battlefield with calm.
59 54 301 Construct Y-you're right.
60 55 301 Construct Phew...
61 56 301 Construct Sorry for wasting your time and thanks for your comfort.
62 57 301 Wanshi ...It's the least I could do.
63 58 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Construct Not every doctor is as patient with Constructs as you are and takes the time to listen to my complaints.
