Story/Cube+/E1-2 (Part4)/Script

[Super SASS reaches the archive in the highlands.]

AAT-52: Vive! You’re finally here, SASS!

Super SASS: M4A1, I have rendezvoused with AAT.
We are now heading in to crack the transmission device.

AAT-52: I modularized the cracking procedure left behind by P08 while I was on standby.
We can do it much faster this time!

M4A1: Then go ahead. And please assess your surroundings carefully before you proceed.

AAT-52: Pas de problème. I’ve already done that while I was waiting.
There are no explosives around this outpost.

???: You know why that won’t be necessary?

Griffin T-Dolls: …?!

M4A1: A broadcast…?
Who’s that?! SASS, find out where the voice is coming from!

Super SASS: It’s not…from anywhere near...

AAT-52: Then there’s a chance we can make it out…?

???: I don’t need to be around...

M99: This… sounds like Architect!
Isn’t she...

Architect: Heheh...
After all, isn’t it better to watch fireworks...from a distance?

Super SASS: …?!
Outside! Look outside!

Architect: So long, bastards.

[...!!]

M99: SASS… AAT52...
Answer me!

Architect: Heheheheh...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
This is it… This is exactly what I’m after!!

M99: Architect… Why…?
Haven’t you surrendered?!

Architect: …Surrendered?
I didn’t know my emotion module is so good I managed to fool you all so easily!
I only surrendered with Mastermind’s permission, duh.
Then I’ve been biding my time…waiting for the moment you let down your guard…
Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this, Griffins?!
And this… THIS is the moment…
I could finally return Sangvis camp and blow things up to my heart’s content!

M99: You...
Why are you doing this?! What exactly are you after?!

Architect: Huh? You still don’t get it? Just how stupid can you be...
I’m after the Sangvis AI core you got your hands on, obviously!

M99: B…But isn’t that...

Architect: The Sangvis commander for this battle…?
That’s right, the battle tonight is its debut after its awakening!
And my job is to assist it in its operation.
Now don’t be sad. It isn’t a real battlefield if no one gets blown to smithereens.
Behold. These two burned pieces of junk is merely the beginning. We have something even worse in story for you!
Feel free to proceed with your operation however you want. The result will be the same…
Or you can come directly to me. I might just show a bit of mercy?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
