10 9 301 The culprit, Gabriel, saunters down this littered path. His black-clad figure casts an enormous shadow on the ground, but his footsteps remain soundless.
11 10 301 Gabriel is more than aware that the Constructs are still conscious. His attack only partially disabled their functions. The Constructs are all struggling to get on their feet, trying to exact their revenge.
12 11 301 Yet that is more than enough. Gabriel would not kill unless necessary, not in the least, but he would not hesitate to do it for Luna.
13 12 301 For Gabriel, Luna is a symbol of the world spirit—the whole—something he would give his all to defend.
14 13 301 Gabriel This light wall... must be some kind of protective shield. 1

16 15 301 Gabriel stops before the light wall, hoping to find a way through it. As thin as the wall seems, Gabriel knows better than to take it lightly.

21 20 301 Corrupted —! 3
22 21 301 The Corrupted that followed Gabriel into the city are tied up with the remaining squads. Summoning the Corrupted over might complicate things, so Gabriel turns his gaze instead to a Construct that is glaring at him.

27 26 301 Construct W-what are you doing, you degenerate freak!? 3
28 27 301 A monstrous hand reaches out from Gabriel's overcoat and plucks the Construct up. Ignoring the Construct's curses, Gabriel studies the light wall, then finally confirming the fatal spot—

30 28 301 RImgBg1Shake He rams the Construct into the wall.

33 31 301 RImgBg1Shake Like a toddler abusing a toy, Gabriel slams the Construct, over and over, at the light wall.

37 34 301 Very quickly, he realizes the true nature of the light wall.

39 36 301 It is a force field made of light, serving a defensive purpose as well as an offensive one. The spasming, scorched Construct in his hand is the evidence.

41 38 301 1 Gabriel I see. Then this shan't be difficult. Greater force can create an aperture, and then... 2
42 39 301 Gabriel The laser-generating components can be destroyed from within. 2
43 40 301 With that, Gabriel tosses aside the broken Construct and aims his hand at the light wall.
