8 8 301 The bulk of the city, built up with sweat and blood, has been destroyed along with the majority of the Phecda Constructs. Qu closes her eyes and recalls what Kowloong was like before all this.
9 9 301 Unlike the Forsaken and other rag-tag associations, Kowloong is more than just some faction established through circumstance.
10 10 301 Kowloong is a community of people who have foreseen the fate of Earth, and who are now united by the shared commitment to making Tabula Akasha a reality.
11 11 301 Everyone gave their all to leave legacy behind. That was the founding mission of Kowloong.
12 12 301 Huaxu Some enemies are already headed here.

14 14 301 1 Qu That's to be expected. Doesn't take a genius to figure out I hid you here... 1

16 16 301 The Observatory, the tallest building of Kowloong Corp, serves as Qu's abode as well as Kowloong's command center. Qu has never left the tower ever since it was built.
17 17 301 All this time, she lived in peaceful seclusion, with her only company being flowers and plants. This is her utopia.
18 18 301 It is a utopia, because Qu is convinced that Earth will never return to what it once was.

20 20 301 1 Qu Huaxu... Will Kowloong win? 1
21 21 301 Huaxu The probability of defeat is approximately...
22 22 301 Qu I don't need the number. 1
23 23 301 Huaxu Understood.
24 24 301 Qu Kowloong must win. Defeat is not an option. 1
25 25 301 Huaxu Then I suggest send Prime units to battle. Though no more resistant to the Punishing Virus than Phecda, it can cause greater damage to the Corrupted before it falls.
26 26 301 Qu Burning the leaves, but not the root... 1
27 27 301 Huaxu It cannot be helped. Our Constructs are built on primitive technology, dating back to before Babylonia rose to the sky.
28 28 301 Qu But that primitive technology, precisely, allowed us to mass-produce the Prime and Phecda Constructs to contain our people. Are you telling me that it wasn't enough? 1
29 29 301 Huaxu ...
30 30 301 Qu Babylonia is marching forward, improving their Construct tech, and even invented their so-called Inver-Devices, while we have been living in stagnation... Is that what you're trying to say? 1
31 31 301 Huaxu ...
32 32 301 Qu Looks like it's time to do something about it, then. 1
33 33 301 Qu Spread the word. Activate all Prime units and have the Phecdas pull back the defense line. Abandon the entire outer Kowloong! 1
34 34 202 1
35 35 301 Huaxu does not respond in words, merely beeping to signal that Qu's command has been accepted.
36 36 301 Qu trudges toward the edge of the tower to see what has become of Kowloong.
