Story/Operation Cube/E1-2 (Part3)/Script

[...The battle is coming to an end.]

Hunter: I’m...at my limit...
Ouroboros...where are the reinforcements that you had promised earlier? The outpost is about to be overtaken!

Ouroboros: Even you should be aware that their target is you, right, Hunter?
It goes without saying that leaving you there is the easiest way to protect the jammer.

Hunter: Ouroboros...
You... You knew this was going to happen, and you intended to abandon me right from the beginning, didn’t you?

Ouroboros: Hunter, do you know how I was created?
Pitted against thousands of AIs in thousands of chess deathmatches, I was the only one to survive.
From what I can see, your value as a pawn has been exhausted.

Hunter: War is not chess! You’re neglecting too many factors, Ouroboros! You will soon regret this!

Ouroboros: I take everything into consideration to reach my most desired results.
....It is unfortunate for you that this is the result.

2612-1192a2516-31913, initiate format command.

[Restarting host. Neural cloud backup in progress. Unable to connect to network. Unable to complete neural cloud backup. Switching to current access. Format complete.]

Ouroboros: Go to sleep, Hunter. I have no use for you anymore.

[Ten minutes later. Squad 404 arrives at Hunter’s location and begins to investigate the situation.]

HK416: Unable to wake up Hunter. No response at all.

UMP9: It’s all your fault, Gr G11. You should’ve shot her legs.

G11: Yeah, blame me all you want. You weren’t the one that had to make the shot...

UMP45: It’s not Gr G11’s fault. Someone even higher up than Hunter must’ve shut her down.

UMP9: Damn it! We went through so much trouble to defeat Hunter and we ended up with nothing!

G11: So we came for nothing. Wanna go home?

HK416: Let’s leave now...
Hear that? New enemy forces are closing in fast.

UMP45: Perhaps...they’re not after us?

HK416: Huh? What do you mean?

UMP45: I’ll be right back. 416, take everyone to the other side of the outpost and try to avoid the enemy.
Perhaps...there is still an opportunity.
