7 7 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Inside the communications room...
8 8 301 The strenuous movements have caused Selena's vital fluid to seep out of every opening, and she can feel that her body, which is already approaching its limit, is about to fall apart.
9 9 301 She musters her remaining strength to barricade the entrance with what she can find and staggers over to the communications station.

16 16 301 RImgBg1Shake There is however no joy in those words.
17 17 401 2 1506
18 18 301 RImgBg1Shake The giant Corrupted is frenziedly slamming against the barricade.
19 19 201 1 500283
20 20 301 1 Selena Is this end of the road for me... 1
21 21 301 In her hurry, she can only load the data she is subconsciously most familiar with into the space station's Disruptive Signal.
35 35 301 AniZhuanchangEnd In the time she takes to prepare for battle, Korolev manages to cover the distance between them.
36 36 401 2 10007001
37 37 301 1000 Her weapon snaps under the impact of Korolev's attack.
38 38 401 2 1506
39 39 301 RImgBg1Shake There is a loud bang as Korolev hurls Selena against the wall.
40 40 301 Korolev does not give her time to catch her breath and slams its robotic arm down onto her back.
41 41 301 The robot is not small, but it sure is nimble.
42 42 201 1 500119
43 43 301 1 Korolev When visiting the space station, please follow the rules and regulations and listen to your guide. 1
44 44 301 Korolev Children who vandalize and destroy space station facilities will be punished. 1
45 45 301 Korolev I've finally got you. You're a very disobedient child. Not only have you vandalized the facilities, you've also stolen valuable "public property." 1
46 46 301 Korolev Come on, return what you stole to Korolev. 1
47 47 301 Korolev A child who owns up to their mistakes is a good child. 1

50 50 301 1 Selena What is the goal of this Corrupted...? 1
51 51 301 She glances down at the geometric core shard in her hands.
52 52 204 1 4
53 53 301 Selena No... This is one thing I can never hand over to you. 1
54 54 202 1 1
55 55 301 Selena started to struggle again, and with her final desperate burst, she managed to shake the AI robot off her.
56 56 301 Taking advantage of the robot's attempt to stabilize itself on its robotic legs, she dodged to the corner of the room.
57 57 301 I must protect the shard... This came at the cost of the entire Advance Force's sacrifice.
58 58 301 What should I do...?
59 59 301 Korolev is blocking the entrance, and her weapon has been destroyed. It's a desperate situation with no chances of survival.
60 60 301 At the very least, I must...
61 61 301 Selena's eyes narrow.
62 62 401 2 1505
63 63 301 In an instant, she turns the pointy end of the shard toward her chest and stabs it straight in.
64 64 201 1 500119
65 65 301 1 Korolev A child who doesn't own up to their mistakes is a naughty child. 1
66 66 301 Korolev, who had regained its balance "looked" at Selena, who had the shard hidden in her chest.
67 67 301 It charged toward her, once again crushing her left arm with its own.
68 68 301 Korolev The item you stole, where did you hide it? 1
69 69 301 Pain signals flooded Selena's M.I.N.D.
70 70 201 1 500283 14
71 71 301 1 Selena Ugh—! 1
72 72 301 Selena Are you the space station's AI? 1
73 73 301 Being a Corrupted, it obviously was not able to answer her.
74 74 301 Selena To have become what you are... It's truly tragic. 1
75 75 201 1 500119
76 76 301 Korolev Korolev has always been like this. What are you talking about? 1
77 77 201 1 500283 14
78 78 301 1 Selena You're just a puppet of the Punishing Virus. 1
79 79 202 1 1
80 80 301 The Corrupted before her was supposed to be the Guidance AI of this space station.
81 81 301 To make it more approachable to children, its words and actions were programmed to be as innocent as those of a child.
82 82 301 The robotic arm pinning her down even bears childish graffiti left by children who used to visit.
83 83 301 And now, it is nothing more than a killing machine.
84 84 201 1 500119
85 85 301 1 Korolev A good child doesn't gossip about others. 1
86 86 301 Korolev But Korolev is forgiving. Just hand it over. 1
87 87 301 Korolev If you don't, Korolev will activate punishing mode. 1
88 88 301 Korolev According to the rules and regulations of the space station, Korolev has the right to use minimal levels of violence. 1
89 89 301 Selena observes it calmly.
90 90 301 Korolev What's the matter? Why aren't you moving? 1
91 91 301 Korolev Very well. 1
92 92 301 Korolev The following demonstration will serve as a warning to children on the repercussions of not following the rules and regulations. 1
93 93 301 Korolev The priority is to get the thief to return the stolen object to the owner. 1
