Chapter 4 - Stage 1

Opening

We succeeded in capturing the Trickster.
But we failed in recovering the tank and probably the experimental body.
I searched for any trace of evidence but I couldnt find any "Goblin"(Male bioloid model) circuit that could make The Predator go crazy.
We can only rely on Aedas satellite now.
I have a bad feeling.

Marie: Aeda, cant you find any traces yet?
Aeda: Yes. Nothing has been detected by the surveillance satellite.
Marie: So... If it didnt escape by a route as on the ground or in the air.
       If so, there is one conclusion...

It could be underground or underwater.

Marie: Underwater is impossible due the nature of iron-bugs.
       The underground possibility still remains, but its impossible to dig a hole in such limited time...
Aeda: There is no underground passage near here in the database.
Marie: Isnt this experimental site also no existent?
       Therefore, finding the entrance to the underground passage is the highest priority.
Aeda: For the time being Im going to scan the place where the Trickster disappeared.
      I think you should also explore there.

Ill organise a search team.

Marie: Yes, His excellency will immediately form a search team.
       And for the things related to Predator...

For now this mission will come first.

Marie: Understood. Lets sortie.
       Commander orders.


Ending

Constantia: Here we are, in the coordinates where the Trickster was seen for the last time.
Marie: Is this the entrance to a basement? It was surprisingly easy to find.
       I thought it would be hidden in more secure place...
Constantia: The reason is simple...
            It was made to be easily acceded it.
Marie: Or maybe there was something that protected this.
       In any case we are prepared for enemies.
       Alright! Everyone!
       For the time being guards will be placed here and the rest will return.
       Eh...? Constantia whats with that look?
Constantia: Well... Isnt strange? Its a pre-prepared cave...
            No matter how you look at it, this is...
Marie: ...I know. His excellency is also aware.
       But are already here.
       Even if its suspicious... we have to continue.
