29 29 301 Holding on to her damaged frame, Lucia chases after the mid-air Liv with the time Changyu, Sophia, Lee, and Chrome are buying her.
30 30 301 Is Lucia's life just a dead end that she cannot leave?
31 31 301 Once again, in a similar church, in a similar way, she is about to say a similar goodbye.
32 32 301 It happened to the old Gray Raven as well. Commandant Ravenge led them on a mission to make contact with a "Construct" immune to the Punishing Virus.
33 33 301 Back then, Lucia did not have the clearance to know who authorized the mission or if their information was accurate.
34 34 301 Most members of her team were like that. All they knew was that the leaders were particularly ecstatic about this mission.
35 35 301 After all, the seemingly harmless "child" could possibly be the hope they require to control the Punishing Virus.
36 36 301 Just like before, no one has lied, but everyone has withheld parts of the truth.
37 37 301 Lucia has been secretly searching for the truth after getting back her memories of losing her team, but she has not wavered because of that.

40 40 301 Lucia But Liv—! 1
41 41 301 Lucia leaps up with the help of her thruster, holding onto the hovering ivory sparrow, but Lucia cannot stop what she is doing.
42 42 301 Lucia Wake up! This is not how it should end! 1
43 43 301 Regardless of how Lucia cries, Liv still carries on with her hand motions like a mindless puppet.
67 67 301 1 Asimov You belong to the same team, so your connections are interconnected. It won't be too hard for you to hack into Liv's M.I.N.D., and 【kuroname】 will also help stabilize the Mind Beacon. 13
68 68 301 Asimov suddenly joins the comms.
69 69 301 Lucia I see. 1
70 70 301 Asimov But Liv's M.I.N.D. is highly infected right now. The Punishing Virus and the data within her are taking shape. 13
71 71 301 Asimov Think of it as something like the Hetero-Sapiens or the Red Tide projections. 13
72 72 301 Asimov So don't get distracted by them. 13
73 73 301 Lucia Understood. 1
74 74 301 Asimov And I suspect that when an intact M.I.N.D. hacks into there, they will respond by changing their forms according to what you know. 13
75 75 301 Asimov Don't get tricked regardless of what you see. 13
76 76 301 Lucia I won't. 1

78 78 301 1 Hippocrates If Liv's consciousness does not wake up, the remote connection will also fail. 13
79 79 301 Hippocrates Wake her up, no matter the cost. 13
80 80 301 Lucia Aren't you—forget it. I know what to do! 1
81 81 302 Lucia, this will be very dangerous. 82
82 82 302 You'll be entering a highly corrupted M.I.N.D. 83
83 83 204 1 2
84 84 301 You tell Lucia all this worriedly and apologetically, but she just smiles and nods.
85 85 301 Lucia Don't worry, Commandant. I won't back down, no matter how dangerous it is! 1
86 86 301 Lucia Are you coming here? I hear the sound of a transport craft in the background. 1
87 87 302 Yes, I'm on my way. 88
88 88 302 I'll be there soon. 89
89 89 301 Lucia How is your body holding up? 1
90 90 302 It'll be fine. 91
91 91 301 Lucia Can I trust you? 1
92 92 302 Of course! 93
93 93 301 You fist-pump each other through the camera just like you once did.
94 94 302 Lucia, come back safely with Liv and everyone. 95
95 95 302 This is my request. 96 This is an order. 98
96 96 301 Lucia Roger! I will treat this as an order that I can't fail! 1
97 97 100 301 Lucia You never said the word "order," but I suspect that it might be easier to wake her up if it is one, given how rare she thinks for herself. 1
98 98 301 Lucia Roger! I'll complete the mission! 1
99 99 301 Lucia That is also my wish! 1
