3 3 301 DialogEnable In the 19th century, a textile factory in Manchester kickstarted the Age of Steam and the first Industrial Revolution.
4 4 301 And Lustrous believes that the zero-point reactor in Atlantis will kickstart the next Industrial Revolution.
5 5 301 The beds in Manchester were never cold. When the workers woke up to work, the previous shift returned home and slept.
6 6 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Similarly, the lights never dim, and the machines never stop running in Atlantis. Researchers travel between the laboratories and their dormitory in a straight line.

10 10 301 AniZhuanchangEnd 1 Admin Director Congratulations on becoming the research director, Lustrous. But, if I may, you're already three minutes late on your first day. 1
11 11 204 2 8
12 12 301 Lustrous The voice recognition of the system AI was way too slow. It stopped me at the door for over ten minutes. You should reprimand the logistics staff for this. 2
13 13 202 1 2 1
14 14 301 The base is a brain built with metal and flesh, with the devices here being cells, the wires veins, the optical fiber nerves, the servers hippocampus, and the endless streams of data and codes thoughts.
15 15 301 This head lifts proudly in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The humans inside are but the nutrients it needs to work, and the sugar and amino acid it requires to think.
16 16 301 The research does not stop for anyone. To Atlantis, the zero-point reactor is bigger than the world.
17 17 301 Anyone who cannot advance the research will be shipped back to the mainland, living the rest of their lives monitored. And in a few hours, those vacancies will be filled.
18 18 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Lustrous has never seen anyone that left return. This place is cruel, metabolizing constantly.

20 20 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Entering the conference room, she already notices a few familiar figures gone. New faces have taken their places.
21 21 301 She is used to it by now, never showing a hint of hesitation. They are not humans in her eyes but gears of the city.
22 22 201 1 500350
23 23 301 1 Lustrous Let's start our morning meeting. Are all departments here? 1
24 24 301 Everyone nods.
25 25 202 1 1
26 26 301 AniZhuanchangBegin No one sitting there ever thinks that their research at the time would lead them down anything but a path of light.

29 29 301 AniZhuanchangEnd The two sides of the corridors are lined with unlit laboratories.
30 30 301 Equations written years ago still linger on the yellow-tinted whiteboards. Dried ink turns to dust with the slightest touch, flaking off from the boards.
31 31 301 The empty offices are tidy and organized as if waiting for the departed researchers to return and work. A thick layer of dust on the tables and the floor suggests that it has been a long time since someone last visited.
32 32 301 There is but the slightest rustling of air in the ventilation ducts. Inside the data center, servers grow on the clean, smooth floor like cubic trees, unaware of the time that has passed.
33 33 301 Only the red, low-wattage emergency lights are on. Dimly-lit yellow arrows point at the evacuation route at the crossroads. There are no footprints—everyone in the city vanished in one night like Pompeii.
34 34 201 1 500345 4
35 35 301 1 Vera Something's wrong. 1
36 36 301 Vera frowns and says after searching a room.
37 37 202 1 1
38 38 301 There is no one in the corridors and the rooms.
39 39 301 The massive network of wires and pipes on the ceiling is still intact.
40 40 301 There is no debris, no ruins, no bodies.
41 41 302 It's weird. 42 It's "clean." 45
42 42 201 1 500345 4
43 43 301 1 Vera looks annoyed.
44 44 47 301 Vera No shit, Sherlock. Can you at least try to be constructive? 1
45 45 201 1 500345 4
46 46 301 1 Vera It is way too clean. 1
47 47 202 1 1
48 48 301 The dark corridor extends forward, unending.
49 49 301 You look back at where Vera and you came from.
50 50 301 You have left behind two sets of clear footprints as if trekking through dark brown snow.
51 51 302 Footprints. Only our footprints are here. 52
52 52 301 The prints are fairly level, meaning the thickness of the dust is similarly even...
53 53 301 With that, you can infer that the city has not been disrupted since it was abandoned.
54 54 301 —No one has visited here, which is how the dust could pile up evenly.
55 55 201 1 500345 2
56 56 301 1 Vera Hmm, I might be a little bit impressed right now. 1
57 57 302 The emergency lights are still on. 58
58 58 301 Which means emergency power and the electric circuits are still intact.
59 59 301 The other facilities are likely functional as well.
60 60 204 1 4
61 61 301 Vera ...That doesn't make sense. 1
62 62 302 This place is way too "clean." 63
63 63 301 "Clean," not in the sense that it is tidy and spotless, but that there is no evidence of this place having been infected by the Punishing Virus.
64 64 301 The dust and facilities would have been disrupted if Corrupted have invaded here.
65 65 302 One more thing... 66
66 66 301 Vera One more thing indeed. There is no one here. 1
67 67 301 She has not spelled it out, but you understand that what she meant was there are no corpses here.
68 68 301 Vera What the hell happened to everybody? 1
69 69 301 Vera Did they all evacuate before the shit hit the fan? 1
70 70 301 She mutters to herself.
71 71 301 There would not have been supplies after the outbreak.
72 72 302 I think so. 73 I don't think so. 78
73 73 301 2000 Vera purses, considering.
74 74 301 Vera Ha, that's what I think. No supplies would be delivered here after the outbreak. 1
75 75 301 Vera This kind of city wasn't designed to be self-sustaining from the beginning. Once the food was gone, the people would have left. 1
76 76 301 2000 She falls silent again.
77 77 81 301 Vera That doesn't make sense either... If they did leave, then the world would have known about this place. 1
78 78 301 2000 Vera falls silent.
79 79 301 You do not elaborate.
80 80 301 This kind of city was not designed to be self-sustaining from the beginning. If they had stayed here, they would have run out of food eventually.
81 81 301 Neither of you is willing to continue this conversation. You have both realized that the truth might be too brutal for you.
82 82 401 2 561
83 83 301 Silence returns between you. But it does not last as Vera draws her spear and destroys a large door nearby.
84 84 302 What are you doing? 85
85 85 204 1 13
86 86 301 Vera Getting their attention, duh. 1
87 87 301 Vera There must be a large number of mechanoids and drones here to support a city this big. 1
88 88 301 Vera If the Punishing Virus had reached this place, then there must be Corrupted here. 1
89 89 301 Vera But all the Corrupted we encountered on our way here are "outsiders" arriving with the water. 1
90 90 301 Vera Maybe that was because we were on the outskirts of the city. 1
91 91 301 Vera Yet, there are still no signs of corpses, battles, or Corrupted here, deep inside. 1
92 92 301 DialogDisable Vera If they have been hiding, now's the time to get them out here. 1
93 93 302 You would expose our location. 94
94 94 302 We might get surrounded. 95
95 95 301 DialogEnable Vera That's what a commandant would think. 1
96 96 301 Vera Not me. 1
97 97 301 Vera Be honest with me, what is it that you sense the most strongly since you set foot here? 1
98 98 302 ... 99 Fear. 100
99 99 101 301 Vera Do you know that sometimes your expression reveals everything even when you don't answer? 1
100 100 301 Vera Good. Honesty is a warrior's virtue. Fear, on the other hand, is a warrior's lifeline. 1
101 101 301 Vera You're scared, but have you considered what you're scared of? 1
102 102 302 The unknown. 103
103 103 301 Vera Fear of the unknown is the greatest fear of all. Once the enemies reveal themselves, that fear will go away. 1
104 104 301 Vera Instead of blundering around here blindly like a fly caught on a web, I'd rather hit the web, piss off the spider, and have it come to me. 1
105 105 302 I understand. 106
106 106 301 Vera It's fine if you don't. I'm not asking for your opinion. 1
107 107 302 But your plan... 108
108 108 301 It does not seem to work.
109 109 301 It has been some time since Vera caused the commotion. You even chatted for a while, and the place is still eerily quiet. The broken door to the office looks like a scab under the red emergency light.
110 110 204 1 4
111 111 301 Vera Tsk. 1
112 112 301 She turns toward the room next to her—the office of which she destroyed the door.
113 113 302 AniZhuanchangBegin Let's take a look inside. 114
114 114 101 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory415.jpg
115 115 202 1 1
116 116 301 AniZhuanchangEnd The desks and chairs in the room are orderly placed, and folders and files are still organized on the desks. Coffee mugs can be found next to some of the monitors as if waiting for their owners to return.
117 117 201 1 500345
118 118 301 1 Vera Nothing in the cups. 1
119 119 301 Vera Nothing in the fridge or the pantry either. 1
120 120 301 Vera The food is all gone. 1
121 121 202 1 1
122 122 301 These all point to one thing.
123 123 301 Not only was this city not infected after the Punishing Virus broke out, but it also remained operational for a period of time.
124 124 201 1 500345
125 125 301 1 Vera Did they take all the food to their hideouts? If so... where is the last place they stayed? 1
126 126 202 1 1
127 127 301 Vera asks the two questions that have been bothering you since you have been here.
128 128 301 You walk toward the largest desk in the office.
129 129 301 The name plate on it spells out its owner's name.
130 130 301 —Research Director: Lustrous.
131 131 201 1 500345
132 132 301 1 Vera What a strange name. 1
133 133 301 Vera But if this belonged to the research director, then there must be some intel we can use on this desk. 1
134 134 302 (Pick up a folder) 135
135 135 202 1 1
136 136 301 Vera also starts searching the table.
137 137 401 2 1515
138 138 301 You accidentally hit a button, and the projection screen on the desk lights up.

150 150 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Lustrous Twice have we disconnected with the mainland during the routine call. The communication director suggested breaking the confidential mandate and contacting them instead. I approved it. 1
151 151 301 Lustrous But there was no response. The communication director then suggested calibrating the comms to use the public frequency so we can receive news from the outside world. 1
152 152 301 Lustrous Again, that'd go against the confidentiality mandate. But I still approved it. 1
153 153 301 Lustrous I'm glad that decision was not too late. The channels that still worked were all reporting the same warning: the Punishing Virus. 1
154 154 301 Lustrous They claimed that it was a virus that appeared in the first zero-point reactor initially and spread to the whole world in an extremely short amount of time. 1
155 155 301 Lustrous The comms devices on the unresponsive channels are probably infected already. 1
156 156 301 Lustrous Atlantis was submerged during the beginning of the outbreak, so we didn't receive the news immediately. At the same time, that seemed to be why we escaped its wrath. 1
157 157 301 Lustrous While we still don't understand what the Punishing Virus is, we have decided to designate it as our highest priority, given the feedback we received. 1
158 158 301 Lustrous Based on what we know, we believe the Punishing Virus can infect a human body directly, and it is capable of taking over a mechanoid's mind. 1
159 159 301 Lustrous In which case, our base is in incredible danger as well. Therefore, our most urgent mission is to stop Atlantis from getting infected by the Punishing Virus. 1
160 160 301 Lustrous The logistics director reported that the next supply ship from the mainland would arrive soon. We tried to contact it when we saw it on the horizon, but instead of answering us through radio, they sent a signal flare. 1
161 161 301 Lustrous I didn't understand what it meant. The logistics director said it was asking for help. 1
162 162 301 Lustrous I ordered them to sink it. I couldn't risk bringing the virus into Atlantis. 1
163 163 301 Lustrous Four submarines were monitoring the situation underwater outside the base. I ordered them to sink themselves. Two obliged, while the other two tried to crash into the harbor. Our defense system took them down. 1
164 164 301 Lustrous I hosted a brief meeting to hear the directors' reports after taking care of these inconveniences. 1
165 165 301 Lustrous The decision we had to make during the meeting was simple: where does Atlantis go from here? 1
166 166 301 Lustrous Not much effort was needed for us to come to an agreement. There were, however, some disputes when the message was passed down. 1
167 167 301 Lustrous Someone proposed that we should broadcast to nearby areas and take in refugees. I turned it down. The location of Atlantis cannot be revealed, we are not a refuge, and refugees might carry the Punishing Virus with them. 1
168 168 301 Lustrous Some suggested leaving the base immediately for the mainland to join the effort to save humanity. I also turned it down. A few drops of water won't extinguish a wildfire. Our researchers research, they don't save lives. 1
169 169 301 Lustrous I reiterate my stance—Atlantis will not open itself again unless the warning on the Punishing Virus is dismissed. 1
170 170 301 Lustrous My answer was clear from the start. We'll continue our work and keep researching the zero-point reactor. I explained my reasons to my colleagues. 1
171 171 301 Lustrous Firstly, both the base and we are here to serve the reactor. Secondly, this base is powerless to save humanity. Thirdly, there is no better place to understand how the Punishing Virus came to be than Atlantis. 1
172 172 301 Lustrous I want humans to survive, so I must not let Atlantis fall. 1
173 173 301 Lustrous I've adjusted our research direction, trying to replicate the environment of the first reactor and find out where the virus came from. This is the closest thing we can do to "save the world." 1
174 174 301 Lustrous The different reactors would routinely communicate their progress. I have a two-month-old report from the first reactor and nothing else since. I can only hope that they didn't get too far. 1
175 175 301 Lustrous I should be working now instead of doing something as trivial as journaling. Not to mention that I've never done this before. 1
176 176 301 Lustrous The reason I'm doing this is that twice I asked myself—have I done the right thing? 1
177 177 301 Lustrous I said yes both times. My reasons and rationale were clear as always. My action was the logical conclusion. 1
178 178 301 Lustrous But it still feels wrong somehow. 1
179 179 301 Lustrous I once heard a saying that you should toss a coin when you can't make up your mind. If you want to toss it again, you have your answer. 1
180 180 301 Lustrous Which is why I usually ask myself this kind of questions once only. 1
181 181 301 Lustrous Still, I can't deny that this was the first time I "tossed a coin" twice. 1
182 182 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Lustrous So I decided to record everything that happened today to remind myself that I've done everything right. 1

188 188 301 The projection dissipates in the air after the record ends.
189 189 301 Vera breaks the brief silence between you.
190 190 201 1 500345 4
191 191 301 1 Vera And I thought the outcome would be different. They still chose the stupidest option. 1
192 192 301 Vera How mad must they be to try to replicate the first reactor? 1
193 193 301 Vera Maybe they deserved it when they wouldn't change after it had already blown up in their face. 1
194 194 301 Vera I guess the saying is true—the only thing that we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history. 1
195 195 301 Vera is clearly teasing the researcher, but for some reason, you can hear the self-mockery in her tone.
196 196 302 I don't think they thought it was a lesson. 197
197 197 301 Vera Oh? That's fair. You're one of the President's lackeys, after all. In other words, you don't think what you're going through is a lesson you should learn from, do you? 1
198 198 301 Vera What? Did I say something wrong? What's with the face? 1
199 199 301 Vera We both know you and Gray Raven defeated the Polyphage, and the Red Tide was destroyed with your help. Yet no one treated you like a hero! Instead, you were on the gallows—feared, questioned, strived, exploited... 1
200 200 301 Vera This is what I don't understand about you. You've seen the Parliament's true face! Why would you still be willing to risk your life for them? 1
201 201 302 That's not what I'm doing 202
202 202 301 Vera What are you doing, then? 1
203 203 302 What about you? 204
204 204 301 Vera Answering a question with a question? How brazen of you. 1

206 206 302 I disagree. 207

211 211 302 I didn't choose them. 212

217 217 301 Vera Hahahahaha! 1
218 218 301 Vera How do you say something so shameless with a straight face every time? 1
219 219 301 DialogDisable Vera Haha—hahaha! 1
220 220 302 ! 221
221 221 302 Was that funny? 222
222 222 301 DialogEnable Vera Ahahahaha—why don't you say it again and listen to yourself? 1
223 223 301 Vera "I chose humanity"—my god, how fascinating you are to say something like this so seriously! 1
224 224 204 1 4
225 225 301 She finally stops laughing and recovers her piercing gaze.
226 226 301 Vera Good, I'll remember this. I hope you can still say something stupid like that when you see more true faces in the future. 1
227 227 302 I will. 228 I'll try. 228
228 228 301 Vera I feel like I have to spell it out again so you understand why I said it was "stupid." 1
229 229 301 Vera Say you light up a torch and find a detonating cord beneath your feet, leading to the dark in the distance. Shouldn't your first reaction be putting out the flame? 1
230 230 301 You answer her question with a question again.
231 231 302 And you? Would you put it out? 232
232 232 301 Vera The same trick won't work twice. 1
233 233 302 I just don't think you're someone who'll extinguish a flame. 234
