6 6 301 1 Liv Because we don't have access authority to her M.I.N.D., we'll have to brute force it... 1
7 7 301 Liv This is...! 1
8 8 301 Liv A form of energy is trying to invade Karen's M.I.N.D. 1
9 9 301 Lucia Energy? 2
10 10 301 Liv I currently cannot discern its constituents... but this energy is overloading her M.I.N.D. and causing it to overheat. 1
11 11 301 Liv If this goes on, Karen might... 1
12 12 302 Immediately call Celica for help! 13
13 13 301 Liv Yes, Commandant... B-but Karen's situation requires immediate attention as well! 1

16 16 301 1 Bianca What do we need to do? 2
17 17 301 Liv 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. 1
18 18 301 Liv We need to help Karen's frame sleep to temporarily pause her M.I.N.D., then wait for support or help. 1
19 19 301 Liv But the issue is that, even though I've been externally sending in sleep commands, that energy is disrupting its execution. 1
20 20 302 Is there no other way?
21 21 301 Liv There is, but it's a risky choice. 1

23 23 201 2 1021001 4 -400
24 24 301 1 Lucia The situation is dire. Even if it has high risk, we have no choice. 2
25 25 302 Liv, can you explain? 26
26 26 301 Liv Right—we can force a sleep command from inside Karenina's M.I.N.D. by connecting with it. 1
27 27 301 Liv 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. 1
28 28 301 Liv That way, the other person can enter Karenina's M.I.N.D. and assist in forcing a sleep command. 1

31 31 301 1 Lee So it'll be like injecting immunocytes into a body? 3
32 32 301 Liv 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. 1
33 33 301 Liv I'm sorry... but I have no suitable countermeasures at the moment. 1
34 34 302 No, you've already done well, Liv. 35
35 35 202 3 1
36 36 201 2 1091001 -400
37 37 301 1 Bianca I'll take that risk for Karen. 2
38 38 202 2 1
39 39 201 2 1021001 4 -400
40 40 301 1 Lucia No, I should do it. 2
41 41 301 Lucia Given the situation, we still have to stay here for a while, and we'll likely be attacked by more Corrupted. Whether we hold our ground or retreat, ranged attacks are more favorable than melee ones. 2
42 42 301 Lucia And we have the guidance of Commandant's Mind Beacon. That should lower the risk. 2
43 43 302 (Nod) 44

45 45 201 2 1091001 -400
46 46 301 1 Bianca Okay, but be careful... I'll leave Karenina in your hands. 2
47 47 202 2 1
48 48 201 2 1021001 4 -400
49 49 301 1 Lucia ...Mhm. 2
50 50 301 Lucia Lee, help Bianca protect both Commandant and Liv. 2
