Under the Undercurrents 暗流之下

(Inside the Elmo's ops room.)（艾莫号的指挥室内。）

(Dier, who had originally planned to leave by this time, changed his schedule and instead started throwing himself into researching third-gen Doll technology after I brought Blusphere's frame aboard.)（我将蓝雪球的素体回收到艾莫号上后，原本计划离开的德尔改变行程，不眠不休地研究起了三代人形技术。）

(His research report indicates that Blusphere's Boojum cells become drastically more active whenever Melanie is near.)（他的研究报告显示，一旦梅兰妮靠近蓝雪球，对方体内的伯介姆组织活性便会大幅度提高。）

(I rejected his suggestion to repair Blusphere's frame by having Melanie remain in close proximity to it long-term. If Helena and Melanie really do have close ties to third-gen Doll technology, the partnership between Paradeus and the Orlog Conglomerate might be closer than I imagined.)（我拒绝了他让梅兰妮长期靠近蓝雪球实现修复素体的提议，倘若三代人形的技术与海伦娜以及梅兰妮有关，只怕帕拉蒂斯与财团之间的合作比我想象得更为紧密。）

DierRepairing a third-gen Doll requires loads of expensive materials, but the use of Boojum tissue will allow us to significantly lower the material cost.原本维修三代人形需要不少昂贵的材料，用上伯介姆组织，倒是可以让维修材料的费用大幅度降低。

DierThe catch is that Boojum cells are somewhat difficult to control. From what we have observed with Blusphere's frame, high Boojum cell activity results in large-scale cell division, with the cells attempting to simulate and construct a variety of torsos.就是伯介姆组织有点难以控制。从蓝雪球的素体来看，伯介姆组织活性高的情况下，细胞大规模分裂，模拟出了不同躯干。

DierIf we want to control and limit cell activity within a specific range, I'm not capable of doing that yet... We could let Melanie try it though.想要指定伯介姆组织的活跃范围，以我的能力目前做不到……倒是可以让梅兰妮试试。

CommanderI'm not keen on taking in a ticking time bomb aboard the Elmo before we figure out how Boojum cells operate.在弄清楚伯介姆组织原理之前，我还不想艾莫号上出现定时炸弹。

CommanderBlusphere's and Sextans' situations are very different.蓝雪球和六分仪的情况不同。

CommanderBlusphere's command permissions haven't been edited yet, so not only is it extremely likely that she'll reveal the Elmo's coordinates to the Conglomerate upon waking up, she might attack us too.蓝雪球目前控制权限还没有被修改，一旦苏醒极有可能将艾莫号的坐标点暴露给财团，还有可能对我们发动攻击。

Dier(Sigh)... Are we really just going to leave a third-gen Doll like this without repairing her fully?啊……难道就这样一直放着三代人形不去完全修复她吗？

DierWhat agony...!太让人痛苦了——

DierI've already asked Sier to send me a cryopreservation chamber as soon as possible. Boojum cell activity drops drastically in extremely low-temperature environments.我已经让姐姐尽快帮我把细胞冷冻舱送过来，在极端低温环境下伯介姆组织的活性会大幅度降低。

DierThis will ensure that Blusphere's state stays completely under our control, freeing us from the need to constantly monitor her and preventing her from suddenly reawakening.这样就能确保蓝雪球的状态完全在我们的控制范围之内，而不需要实时监控，以防她在某一瞬间忽然苏醒。

CommanderMelanie will finally be able to relax once the cryopreservation chamber arrives.有了冷冻舱之后，梅兰妮也能放松一些。

CommanderShe hasn't dared to move around the Elmo ever since Blusphere's arrival.这些日子，她完全不敢在艾莫号上随意行动。

GrozaCommander, here's the latest report on Blusphere.指挥官，这是蓝雪球的最新报告。

GrozaPlease rest easy in the fact that Blusphere's frame has been under monitoring ever since her arrival aboard the Elmo. So far, her frame has not displayed any self-repair capabilities.请放心，蓝雪球的素体始终处于被监控的状态。目前来看，素体没有实现自我修复的可能性。

CommanderShe will always be a potential threat to the Elmo if we just leave her be in this state forever. Sier is set to deliver the cryopreservation chamber today, right?一直将她放置在艾莫号上始终是个隐患，希尔约定送细胞冷冻舱过来的时间就是今天吧。

GrozaCorrect. Klukai has already gone ahead to receive Miss Sier.是，可露凯已经前去接应希尔小姐。

DierWait. What? T-today?!等等，今、今天？！

DierI'll be taking my leave then, Commander. There's still time for me to do some research in the lab before Sier arrives.我先告辞了，指挥官。在姐姐来之前，我还能再去实验室研究一会儿。

DierYou can just help me say hi to her. Just tell her that I'm still busy with my research... No, just tell her that I'm sleeping.你帮我和姐姐问好就行，就说我还在醉心研究……不、就说我还在睡觉。

???Dier, are you telling me that you're sleeping while standing right now?德尔，你是说你现在站着的状态在睡觉？

DierWell... I am indeed feeling kind of sleepy...嘛……我有点困了……

(Dier relaxes all of a sudden. He yawns, and in just a few seconds, somehow manages to adopt the appearance of a haggard man who's exhausted himself after several days of obsessive research.)（德尔忽然整个人放松了下来，打了个哈欠，愣是在数秒之内展露出了一副沉迷研究数日憔悴不堪的模样。）

SierOnly the geriatrics in our family would fall for that terrible acting of yours!这种演技，也就只有家族里面的那群老头子会相信了！

SierYou'd gladly conduct research on third-gen Dolls for days on end even if you had to forgo food and drink.让你研究三代人形，我看你不吃不喝都会乐意吧。

DierAhem... Well... All for the sake of our family, I say.咳、咳，我这……也是为了家族的利益嘛。

(Sier shoots Dier a disdainful look. Dier gives her a sheepish smile before leading her to me.)（希尔给了德尔一个嫌弃的眼神，德尔讨好地笑了笑，将希尔引到我的面前。）

SierIt's been many years since we last met. I'm glad to see you again...多年不见了，很高兴能和你再度相见。

Sier...He who blows through the Yellow Zones like a storm with an all-powerful faction, the one who grasps cutting-edge third-gen Doll technology in his hands, the Lord of the Yellow Zone—the Commander.在黄区叱咤风云，坐拥一方势力，拥有顶尖三代人形技术的——指挥官大人？

Commander...What's with all those extraneous titles?……这一长串前缀是怎么回事？

SierDier has been praising you to high heaven in his comms to convince our family to collaborate with you.为了说动家族和你合作，德尔在通讯中将你夸得天花乱坠。

Sier"This is the best return on investment ratio that our family will ever see. If we miss out on this chance, we'll regret it for life."“这将会是家族做的回报率最高的投资。错过了这个机会，绝对会后悔终身。”

Sier"Don't miss this, so... You should come over. Right now. Quickly."“机会不容错过——立刻、马上，速来。”

SierAnd so, I dropped everything I was working on, pulled every string I could and sacrificed an unspeakable amount of tangible and intangible resources to deliver this cryopreservation chamber via helicopter.我放下所有工作，动用一切资源，花了不少代价才把德尔要的细胞冷冻舱用直升机调了过来。

SierDier, do you have ANY idea just how costly it was to "facilitate" the rapid arrival of this cryopreservation chamber and myself into the Yellow Zone without trouble, on top of the transport and the chamber's cost?德尔，你这家伙，知道除了货物的费用，运送费、立刻来黄区需要打点的费用，这其中要花掉多少钱吗？

DierAhem. I see that you've crossed out most of the items on my request list. Surely our family can afford to send ONE cryopreservation chamber.咳咳，我看你拒绝了不少本来在清单上的货物。只是一个细胞冷冻舱，我们家完全付得起。

DierThe Orlog Conglomerate has always had a monopoly on third-gen Doll technology. While they don't outwardly refuse to share the technology, there is an enormous price to pay if one wishes to get their hands on it.一直以来，三代人形技术始终被奥尔劳格财团垄断，他们表面虽然没有拒绝技术共享，但想要获取，需要极为高昂的代价。

DierBut now, we can completely skip over the Orlog Conglomerate and still conduct research on third-gen Dolls... This is a perfect opportunity for us to collaborate with the Commander and satisfy all parties involved!但现在完全可以绕过奥尔劳格财团进行三代人形的研究——这可是和指挥官之间再合适不过的合作！

SierI do hope that this is a collaborative effort and not just you giving away our family's resources for free.希望是合作，而不是你直接想把家族的资源全无偿送出去。

CommanderI am willing to entrust the third-gen Doll research to Dier.三代人形交给德尔进一步研究，是我能接受的。

CommanderI am also willing to let him share any related research findings with your family.我也愿意让他将研究获得的相关情报，共享给你们家族。

SierNow that sounds a lot better.这还差不多。

CommanderStill, remember not to overshare before we manage to figure out everything we need to know about third-gen Dolls, as that might endanger all of us.不过，在三代人形的情报彻底弄明白之前，透露过多的讯息并非是一件安全的事情。

SierThere's no need to worry. I do not agree with widely publicizing info about third-gen Dolls either.放心吧，我也不赞同大规模公开三代人形的情报。

SierI will also strictly control who gets to access such information even within our family to ensure no risks of information leaks.即便在家族内部，我也会严格限制情报的知情权，确保没有情报泄露的风险。

DierGreat. Then I'll take charge and stay aboard the Elmo to conduct research...嗯，不错，我就作为负责人，只要在艾莫号上研究就可以……

SierNo way.不可能。

SierThe Elmo's coordinates may be classified, but I won't allow Dier to use that as an excuse to avoid me by setting up a one-way communication channel in the name of security.我无法接受，德尔用艾莫号的坐标是机密当借口，为了提高安全性，单方面和我建立沟通。

SierBesides, third-gen Doll research is a massively important matter that requires a thorough implementation of security measures.况且，研究三代人形那么重要的事情，安保工作必须做得足够好才行。

SierFirstly, the research must be conducted at a safe location. Secondly, COMPLETE disclosure of all data and findings to me must be enforced. Thirdly, my people are to be stationed at the research grounds long-term.一个安全的实验地点，对我绝·对·公·开的所有数据，我的人必须长期进驻在实验场地之内。

SierThose are the requirements that have to be met before I will agree to this collaboration.这是合作的前提。

DierWe're just doing research on third-gen Dolls... There's no need to be this tense.只是研究三代人形而已……不用那么紧张吧。

SierAre you SURE that you're only conducting research on third-gen Dolls?你确定——只是研究三代人形？

SierThe fact that you need a cryopreservation chamber to minimize cell activity in something... allows one to make some pretty bold guesses.能够减缓细胞活性的冷冻舱，从这点上出发不难做一些……大胆的猜想。

SierAm I right to guess that there's something special about third-gen Dolls that goes beyond the materials they are constructed with or how complex their neural clouds are, Commander?指挥官，三代人形的特殊性恐怕不止是素体材料特殊或者心智复杂吧。

Dier(Sigh) ...I knew that altering the report wouldn't stop Sier from finding out what she wants to know.诶……我就说，就算报告上篡改部分情报，也没办法瞒过姐姐。

SierSo... were biological cells used in the manufacturing process of third-gen Dolls?所以，三代人形的制作过程中用了生物细胞？

SierAre the cells human or animal in origin?人类的？还是动物的？

DierWell... We can't be sure at this point in time.嘛嘛……目前还没有确定。

SierSo it's neither.看来都不是。

DierStop guessing... I refuse to give you any sort of reply.别猜了、别猜了，我拒绝做任何答复。

SierJudging by this reaction and attitude of yours... Something worse than normal human cells?这个态度……是比人类细胞更糟糕的情况？

SierCould it be cells from people infected with E.L.I.D.?难道是辐射病患者的细胞？

(Dier turns his head aside and pretends to take an interest in the scenery offered by the Elmo's ops room. He desperately avoids eye contact with Sier while glancing at me for help.)（德尔转过头，摆出一副正在欣赏艾莫号指挥室的模样，完全不敢和希尔对视，而是把求助的眼光投向我。）

CommanderThird-gen Doll research must not be conducted within the Elmo for the sake of safety.为了确保安全，研究三代人形的场地不能在艾莫号上。

SierI understand. How about we establish a research facility in a Yellow Zone?我明白。安排在黄区如何？

SierI'll choose somewhere absolutely safe.挑选一个绝对安全的地点。

DierNow that's a surprise. Knowing how cautious you usually are, I thought that you would establish it somewhere within our family's sphere of influence.真意外，我还以为以姐姐你谨慎的风格一定会把场地安排在家族的势力范围之内。

SierThe Green Zones and White Zones are watched more closely than you think. Secrecy is of utmost importance for this particular matter.绿区和白区的耳目比你想得还要多，保密性更为重要。

SierWe are both familiar with the Commander's capabilities. It won't be difficult for him to guard a research facility long-term within the Yellow Zones.况且，以指挥官的实力来看，在黄区长期保护一个实验室应该不难。

CommanderA research facility in the Yellow Zone, I see...在黄区的实验室吗……

SierYou can provide us with a location for the facility if you wish, or we can do it ourselves. I'm fine with both.由指挥官你提供地点或者是由我们提供地点，我都可以接受。

SierJust know that Dier has no official right to remain aboard the Elmo until our partnership is officially confirmed.不过，在合作正式确定之前，德尔没有名义留在艾莫号上。

SierBut rest assured that once we do confirm our partnership, Dier will be officially appointed to work with you as our family's representative.放心，一旦合作达成，家族会正式委派德尔作为家族的合作代表同你合作。

CommanderAlright.明白。

SierI still have other work to do, so I'll be off.我还有别的工作，先告辞了。

SierWhether it's materials for experiments, resources, or research staff, I can provide them all. I hope to hear back from you soon.无论是实验材料或是科研人手，我都能提供，希望能尽快收到你的答复。

(Dier keeps asking me to keep him updated on Blusphere's condition till the very moment he leaves. Judging by Sier's attitude and behavior during my discussion with her, third-gen Dolls seem to be much more highly regarded than I thought.)（德尔离开前还在请求我能未来向他同步蓝雪球的最新状态报告，从希尔所展露出的态度来看，三代人形所拥有的地位比我想象的还要高。）

GrozaCommander... Are you planning to set up a research facility in the Yellow Zone?指挥官……想在黄区建立实验基地吗？

CommanderBlusphere will be as dangerous as unexploded ordnance till the moment she leaves the Elmo. The cryopreservation chamber is simply a stopgap measure.蓝雪球放在艾莫号上始终是一个隐患，冷冻舱只是临时之计。

CommanderMelanie and Helena should ideally be kept far away from those third-gen Dolls.无论是梅兰妮还是海伦娜，理想情况下都应该让她们远离三代人形。

CommanderAs for the research facility, it'll likely be a long-term mission. I haven't thought out how we are going to arrange that yet.至于实验基地，应该会是一个较为长期的任务。我还没想好怎么安排这个任务。

Groza(The Commander is right. Best to remove any possible threats aboard the Elmo ASAP.)（指挥官说得没错，应该把产生危险的可能性尽快从艾莫号上移除。）

Groza(That is a good thing for Melanie and the Commander.)（这样，无论对梅兰妮还是对指挥官而言，都是好事。）

(Remembering her own irregularities, Groza lowers her head in silence.)（回想起自身的异常，闪电低头不语。）

Groza(What I saw before might be a prelude to what is coming. I want to keep everyone safe and ensure no harm comes to the Commander. Perhaps... leaving would be the best option.)（曾经看到的那些东西，可能都是预兆。为了大家的安全，不伤害到指挥官，也许……离开是最好的办法。）

GrozaIf Blusphere is to be studied outside of the Elmo, we will need someone to ensure safety during the experimentation process.蓝雪球在艾莫号之外研究，需要护卫确认实验的安全性。

GrozaI'm willing to take up the responsibility of monitoring Blusphere's condition during the research process. This is to ensure that no threats that arise during experimentation will be able to harm the Elmo and the Commander.我愿意届时去负责蓝雪球的状态督察。确保所有的危险都不会威胁到艾莫号和指挥官。

CommanderOh? We haven't even confirmed our partnership with Dier and Sier yet. Are you already planning to leave the Elmo, Groza?哦？还没确定合作，闪电你已经想离开艾莫号了吗？

GrozaNo! I never had any intention to leave the Elmo, it's just that...不是！我从没有想要离开艾莫号的意思，我只是……

(A tinge of panic flashes across Groza's face. She clenches her fists and instinctively blurts out a refutation, but she lowers her head a few seconds later, forcing herself to suppress her emotions.)（闪电的脸上闪过一丝慌乱，她握紧了拳头，下意识反驳，却在几秒后低下头强行压下了情绪。）

GrozaThis is a task that you will have to assign to someone... I won't be able to stay with you for the duration of this research, but... I'll do my best to endure the loneliness.这是一份被指挥官需要的工作……也许无法随时陪在指挥官身边，但……我会努力忍受这份孤独的。

MaylingEh...? Are you going to leave, Leader? Is it because of work?诶——队长要离开吗？难道是工作需要？

Groza...It'll likely be a long-term mission. I'm planning to take on the responsibility of monitoring Blusphere's condition.……应该会是长期任务，我会负责好蓝雪球的状态监控。

MaylingOh... and, Commander, Blusphere has been placed in the cryopreservation chamber, so all cell activity is reduced to near zero now. Do we really still need someone to monitor her all day long?哦……诶，指挥官，蓝雪球已经被放置在冷冻舱之内，目前所有细胞活性已经降低到了几乎为0的水平，接下来还要派人全天监控状态吗？

MaylingWhy did Leader propose to leave the Elmo by herself? It's way too dangerous to send her on a mission alone.为什么队长会提出一个人离开艾莫号？如果是让队长一个人完成任务的话，这也太危险了。

CommanderI won't let Groza go on this mission alone.不会让闪电独自完成任务的。

CommanderSier has not mentioned the specific location for the research facility in her proposal yet. We'll only move forward with this collaboration once a suitable location to station Blusphere is found.希尔的合作提议中，还未明确场地的位置，等找到适合安放蓝雪球的地点，才会推进这项合作。

GrozaBut—Blusphere will continue to be a potential threat just by being here, so for the sake of safety... perhaps... it's best to leave as soon as possible...可、蓝雪球在车上始终会带来风险，出于安全考虑……也许，我们越早离开越好……

CommanderI won't make my companions leave just because of a risk like this.我不会因为风险就让同伴离开。

Groza!!！！

CommanderBut you, Groza, jumped at the chance to take on this mission that would move you away from the Elmo...倒是闪电你迫不及待就说可以离开艾莫号负责这个工作……

MaylingMmhm. You sounded like you were going to bid farewell to all of us, Leader.嗯嗯，队长刚才的语气听上去像是要告别呢。

GrozaIt's okay to remain even if there is a risk...?就算有风险，也可以不离开吗……

(Groza heaves a sigh of relief, seemingly moved by my words. She seems much more relaxed now, lifting her head with a relieved smile.)（闪电似乎是被我的话所触动，长舒一口气放松了许多，她抬起头露出如释重负的微笑。）

GrozaI don't want to be separated from you.我不想和指挥官分别。

GrozaI won't leave as long as you still need me, Commander.只要指挥官你还需要我，我就不会离开。

CommanderI'll make proper arrangements to deal with Blusphere in time. We can take it easy for a bit since we have her in the cryopreservation chamber.蓝雪球的事情，之后我会安排好，有冷冻舱在，至少能够放心一段时间。

CommanderOur priority is to rest and recuperate at this point in time.现阶段，先修整一下。

MaylingYeah~ The Elmo needs some downtime for recovery, and after all the combat we've been through lately, everyone needs time to rest as well.是的~艾莫号需要好好休整一下，大家经历战斗之后也需要休息。

CommanderThank you for your hard work, Mayling.辛苦了，美玲。

MaylingIt's alright. We're on our way to Lviv, so I'll have to make sure that the Elmo is in tip-top condition before we arrive. There's lots of modules waiting to be repaired...嗯！在赶去利沃夫的路上，得确认好艾莫号的状态，还有很多模块需要维修……

MaylingBy the way, Commander, have you looked at the latest quotes from the underground brokers?对了，指挥官，你看了暗商那边最新的报价单吗？

MaylingI ran some calculations and the quoted prices have risen by a whopping 70% on average! Parts for repairing the Elmo, materials for Doll frame repairs, and even basic necessities have all gotten much more expensive.我已经算过了，这次的报价比之前贵了整整70％！艾莫号的维修零件、素体维修材料，就连生活用品也都全线涨价了。

MaylingWe're already having trouble with money, so we'll have even less materials to work with if this continues.本来我们的经费就不够，再这样下去，更买不起材料了。

MaylingIt's already been ages since the last time I was able to buy any wine...我已经好久没买我想要的酒了……

(Mayling hands me the procurement list. She's written the original price and the increase in price next to the current prices of each item.)（美玲把艾莫号上的采购清单交给我，所有物品的最新价格后面，都被美玲标注了原价和涨幅。）

(Weapons, medical supplies, and tools for maintaining Doll frames all bore a dramatic increase in price, and while the prices for basic necessities have only risen by about 50%, it will still amount to a big sum considering our rate of consumption.)（武器、医疗物资、人形素体的养护工具，涨幅程度极为夸张，而日用品，虽然只涨了百分之五十不到，但从消耗量来看，也是一笔巨大的数字。）

(Mayling's long-awaited wine lies at the very bottom of the entire list. It is clear that she's cut her planned spending on food products by nearly 60% after witnessing the new prices.)（整个列表的最下面才是美玲期待已久的酒，看得出在得知商品的新价格后，美玲直接把她计划采购的食品砍了接近五分之三。）

(It is normal for there to be price differences between different underground brokers in Yellow Zones, and occasional price increases are nothing unusual.)（黄区暗商之间的价格本就有所差异，偶尔的涨价也属于正常情况。）

(But now, the prices are far outside the normal range. In addition, aside from Poludnitsa whom we often work with, the other underground brokers have all set exorbitant prices. A number of underground brokers have also pointed out that they don't have most of the items on our list in stock.)（但现在，价格已经超出了正常范围，并且除了和我们经常合作的佩妮泽，其余暗商的商品报价也极为高昂。部分暗商更是标注大量我们所需的商品全都没有货。）

CommanderLooks like Poludnitsa's supply lines are the most intact. Have you talked to her about the prices?看来，佩妮泽是暗商之中货物渠道最全的。价格有试试和她谈过吗？

MaylingThe prices you see here are already her discounted prices... Most underground brokers weren't even willing to negotiate. Whenever I asked for a discount, they refused further communication.这已经是谈完之后给我们的优惠价了……很多暗商连价格都不愿意谈，问能不能便宜点，就直接拒绝继续沟通。

CommanderSome problems must have occurred with the Yellow Zones' supply routes if everything went up in price. Try asking Poludnitsa in a different way. We should ask her if anything happened to the supply routes between Yellow Zones and Green Zones recently.所有产品都涨价，应该是黄区渠道出了问题。换种问法，问问佩妮泽最近黄区和绿区之间的渠道是不是出了问题。

MaylingOkay.好的。

PoludnitsaHey there, Commander. Many have come to complain about the rising prices lately, but you're the first to ask for the reasons behind it.哟，指挥官。最近因为货物涨价来找茬的不少，你是第一个来找我买商品涨价背后情报的。

CommanderMayling confirmed on the market that you are not the only underground broker to increase prices.美玲已经确认过市场价格，涨价的不止你一家。

CommanderSomething went wrong with the Green-Zone-to-Yellow-Zone lines that supply you underground brokers with stock, right?是绿区到黄区之间，你们的进货渠道出问题了吧。

PoludnitsaAll goods coming out of the Green Zones are subject to incredibly stringent inspections at the moment. Bribery, item losses in the process... Our costs go up by more than 50% after adding everything up.目前所有从绿区出来的货物都需要经过极为严格的检查，打点费、损耗费……一层层加上去之后，成本可就涨了不止五成。

CommanderI need to know the root cause of all this.我需要这一切发生的根源情报。

PoludnitsaI'm guessing you know about the E.L.I.D. outbreak in Odesa?奥德卅的E.L.I.D.爆发事件我想你已经知道了？

PoludnitsaThe Girard Group's defective vaccines affected a large number of people. Since then, the prices for officially certified vaccines have practically multiplied in White Zones and Green Zones due to how hard it is to secure an appointment for them.吉拉尔集团的劣质疫苗害了不少人，在那之后，白区和绿区的正规疫苗因为难以预约，价格翻倍上涨。

PoludnitsaVaccines from large corporations are nearly impossible to get now, so numerous factions have set their eyes on the vaccines on their way to Yellow Zones.大企业的疫苗一份难求，不少势力都盯上了向黄区运送的疫苗。

PoludnitsaAfter all, security in the Yellow Zones is far weaker than how it is in the Green and White Zones, and vaccines are even more indispensable for regular residents of the Yellow Zones.毕竟，黄区的治安可不如绿区和白区，而那些在黄区生活的普通人，更是离不开疫苗。

PoludnitsaVarjagers have been snatching up Yellow-Zone-bound vaccine shipments belonging to pharmaceutical companies from the Green Zones. Mangi Security is currently investigating the whereabouts of the missing vaccines, so things in the Yellow and Green Zones have not exactly been peaceful lately.瓦良格帮抢了不少绿区医药公司运送到黄区的疫苗。曼尼安保正在调查那些消失疫苗的下落，不论是黄区还是绿区最近都不太平。

CommanderWere they planning to sell the stolen vaccines back to the Green Zone through underground brokers?那些被抢夺的疫苗，原本他们打算通过暗商的手再销售回绿区？

PoludnitsaEven Green Zone residents are struggling to afford vaccines from large corporations.就算是绿区的居民，想要负担大企业的疫苗也有些难度。

PoludnitsaOn the other hand, vaccines from small companies are a lot cheaper and always available. I can't be sure of where the price will stabilize this time.小企业的疫苗一直存在，原本价格都相对低廉。这一回，我不确定价格最后会停在什么位置。

PoludnitsaThe vaccine's raw materials are fetching a high price alongside retrieved vaccines.目前，无论是疫苗原材料还是疫苗的回收价格都很高。

PoludnitsaOnce the supply lines open up, prices for everything will go back to normal. If you're afraid of price fluctuations, you can trade with me using vaccines or the vaccine's raw materials.等渠道通畅之后，所有商品的价格都会回落，若你怕价格波动，可以和我用疫苗或是疫苗原材料交易。

PoludnitsaI'll give you a fair price if you choose to barter with either.以物易物，我会给你一个公道的价格。

CommanderAre the underground brokers hoping to move against Varjagers?看来，暗商也想对瓦良格帮动手？

PoludnitsaHow did you arrive at THAT conclusion? I'm simply telling you the most cost-effective way to trade with us.怎么会？我只是告知你最划算的交易方式罢了。

PoludnitsaWho knows how high the prices for vaccines will get? We underground brokers are practically running a charity when compared to those medical corporations' obscene windfalls.谁都不知道疫苗最后会涨到什么价格。和医疗企业的暴利相比，我们暗商干的可都是高风险低收益的良心生意了。

(After I end the call with Poludnitsa, Mayling removes a number of items from the procurement list with a pained expression on her face.)（结束和佩妮泽的通讯后，美玲看着需求清单，艰难地再度删除了部分商品。）

Mayling...I'll hold on a little longer... I'll buy these non-essential food and drink items next time!非必要的食物和饮料……再忍耐一段时间……下次再买！

MaylingAh... but even if we cut down on our daily necessities, it's still not enough...啊……就算删掉日常消耗也不够啊。

MaylingWhy do WE have to bear the cost of those Varjagers robbing vaccine shipments...为什么瓦良格帮抢疫苗最后变成我们要承担商品涨价的费用……

MaylingThese prices are so high that I almost feel like stepping into the Green Zones for some direct procurement. Price increases for daily necessities probably haven't hit them yet.价格涨那么多，我都想去绿区直接采购了，那边日用品的价格应该还没涨吧。

CommanderLet's contact Kalin. She can probably send us some daily necessities from the Green Zones.联系格琳，她应该能从绿区调出一些日用品资源。

Kalina...……

CommanderKalin?格琳？

KalinaI'm here.我在。

Lenna(Laughs) Commander, we've just been discussing with Miss Kalin whether or not we should give you a call~哈哈哈。指挥官，一分钟之前，我们还在和格琳姐商量要不要和你打通讯，然后，你的通讯就来了~

LennaIs this what they mean by kindred spirits being on the same wavelength? You thought about us when we were thinking about you!这难道就是心有灵犀吗？在我们想指挥官的时候，指挥官也想到了我们？

KalinaDid you call to ask about our progress in investigating the chip?找我是想问芯片的调查进展吗？

CommanderWere there results?芯片有调查结果了？

KalinaLeva analyzed the intel that you've provided us. Based on how the damage was inflicted on this chip, we have a number of hypotheses.莱娅根据你给的情报进行了分析，从破坏的方式来看，有好几种推测。

LevaAccording to the Commander's description, it was most likely destroyed by a powerful EMP. It's a pity that this type of interference technology is locked down under the protection of a patent. It will take some time for us to get a hold of the technology's full details.根据指挥官的描述，最可能的破坏技术是强弧磁性干扰技术。只可惜，这项技术被申请了技术专利，想要获得完整技术，还需要点时间。

KalinaThe patent is held by the Stuart Group, a subsidiary under Cecht FABN. The company itself is relatively unknown and of modest size, mainly specializing in manufacturing materials for the medical industry.专利拥有权公司是斯图尔特集团，他们隶属于赛诺菲与法本集团旗下，算是一家名不见经传的小型企业，主要生产医疗制品原材料。

LevaA small medical manufacturing company holding multiple technology patents? It makes you wonder what they're really researching.小型医疗原材料生产企业却拥有多项科技方面的专利特权，很让人怀疑他们究竟在做什么研究。

LevaOne of their raw material shipments to the Yellow Zone got robbed not long ago. Mangi Security took up retrieval work for that.不久前，他们运往黄区的原料遭到掠夺，接下找回工作的是曼尼安保。

LevaThe thing is, Mangi Security charges a premium for their services. They were also on a mission to search for missing vaccines at that time.曼尼安保的任务报价可不便宜。而且，同时段他们还接了失窃疫苗的寻找工作。

LevaPharmaceutical companies in the Green Zones have issued statements declaring that the stolen vaccines belonged to a batch that had not passed pre-market experimental trials, urging the public to avoid purchasing such illegal vaccines.绿区的医药企业已经发布相关公告，申明被抢夺批次的药物未经上市前实验确认，希望大众不要购买非法疫苗。

CommanderPrices have skyrocketed for goods coming from the Yellow Zones' underground brokers. I've heard that this is due to Mangi Security's vaccine search.黄区暗商那边的商品价格涨了一大波，听说，就是因为曼尼安保在搜索疫苗。

KalinaThe Green Zones have tightened up import and export control to assist with the investigations.为了配合调查，绿区加强了货品进出的管理。

KalinaIf we want to send something out of the Green Zone now, it will go through stringent checks.现在想要从绿区送东西出去，需要经过严格的审查。

LevaLots of people want to send out cargo through NOMFA's channels.想通过非军事管理局渠道运送出去的货物不在少数。

LevaSo if the channels don't ease up, the delay won't just be "a while" this time 'round.如果不能打通渠道，多等待的就不只是一点时间。

KalinaWhat do you need? Send me the list.你想要什么？把清单发给我。

CommanderI feel like my request might give you some trouble after hearing all that...这么听下来，似乎会麻烦到你……

KalinaInspectors in satellite cities grant special clearance to NOMFA's cargo, so... I can put the goods you require into a shipment that we are planning to send out of the satellite city.卫星城检查员会给非军事管理局的货物特别放行，所以……我可以把你需要的货物放在运出卫星城的任务清单之内。

CommanderIs it going to be a troublesome affair? If it's too much work, I'll find another way.会不会太麻烦？如果太麻烦，我也能找找别的渠道。

Kalina...……

KalinaGive me your coordinates and your list.坐标、清单给我。

KalinaI'll have Leva pick out a mission for you to take on near your destination.我会让莱娅挑选距离你目的地较近的任务安排。

KalinaNot every corporation can afford Mangi Security. B.R.I.E.F. has been getting more requests to escort goods from Green Zones to Yellow Zones lately.不是所有企业都请得起曼尼安保，赏金猎人权益拓展及推进协会近期已经接到不少绿区向黄区护送商品的订单。

LevaWe might need you to pick up a temporary medicine escort mission while you're on your way to Lviv, Commander. Don't worry, it won't take you too long.可能需要指挥官你在前往利沃夫的过程中，顺手接一个临时药品护送任务，放心，不会占用你太多时间。

LevaWe'll gather the goods you need as fast as we can.我们会用最快的速度，将你需要的材料筹备完成。

CommanderSorry for the trouble, Kalin.麻烦了，格琳。

KalinaIt's never trouble... if it's for you.你的事……从来都算不上麻烦。

(There was a brief silence on the other end. I hesitate, pondering whether I should end the call or not.)（通讯对面沉默了片刻，我犹豫着思考要不要挂断。）

CommanderThat's... all for today, then.那……就先这样。

LennaWait, hold on, is the call ending just like that?等等、等等，就这样结束了？

LennaMiss Kalin clearly had more to say, right?格琳姐明明还有很多话想说吧？

Kalina...How have things been on your end lately?最近……一切还好吗？

KalinaI heard from Klukai that some damage was done when you guys fought with the third-gen Doll named Blusphere.听可露凯说，你们迎战三代人形蓝雪球的过程中，有所损伤。

CommanderThat's true. But don't worry, Mayling can fix the damage.嗯，放心，美玲能够维修好损害。

KalinaThat's great.那就好。

LennaFeel free to call us even if there's nothing important going on, Commander~ I'm always happy to hear from you.指挥官，没事也可以日常找我们哦~我随时欢迎你的联络。

(As soon as the call ends, Lenna starts complaining with her fists clenched in the middle of Kalina's office.)（通讯挂断后，莱娜在格琳娜的办公室，握紧双拳连连抱怨。）

LennaMiss Kalin! You clearly wanted to ask the Commander about Groza!格琳姐明明想问指挥官闪电的事情吧！

LennaThat enemy we ran into definitely has ties to Groza aboard the Elmo.我们遇到的那个敌人，绝对和指挥官车上的闪电有关联。

LennaI've never had suspicion toward Groza, but still, we should tell the Commander about this as early as we can.我从来没有怀疑过闪电，但是这件事还是早些告诉指挥官更好。

LevaYou're worried about harming the Commander's relationship with Groza, aren't you, Kalin? He didn't keep Groza out of the room when we called him.格琳是在担心指挥官和闪电之间的关系吧，和我们的对话过程中，指挥官并未避开闪电。

LevaIf we brought this up in front of them, we would have planted seeds of suspicion between them.若我们提及这件事，势必会将怀疑的种子种在他们之间。

KalinaFrom what we know at the moment, the Groza we encountered is not the same Groza we know from the Commander's team.目前来看，我们遇到的闪电和指挥官车上的闪电并非同一人。

KalinaIt's not too late to relay this information to him once we know more on this matter.等查询到更多信息再沟通也不迟。

KalinaThere's no need to... until we have the complete picture.没必要……在事情还未查清楚之前，贸然说这些。

LennaFine...好——

LevaYou upset?不开心？

LennaNo, I'm just not used to this yet.哪有，我只是不习惯而已。

LennaIt feels like everyone I know has changed, from Miss Kalin to our friends in 404.感觉无论是格琳姐还是404的大家都变了好多。

LevaReally?有吗？

LennaAbsolutely!绝对有！

Lenna(Sigh)... I understand that Miss Kalin and Leva have a lot more to carefully consider now that the two of you are in these kinds of roles. Politics is such a bother.唉，格琳姐和莱娅姐现在身份变了，要考虑的东西多了不少。政治好麻烦。

LennaBut still, you guys should learn to let go and relax a little every once in a while! Don't pick up the bad habit of keeping secrets!但是，你们偶尔也要多放松一下，把秘密藏在心里可不是好习惯！

LevaI hope you stay just the way you are now, Lenna.莱娜保持原来的样子就好。

KalinaSecrets, huh...秘密吗……

(Watching Lenna playfully banter and goof around with Leva, Kalina can't help but think back on the past decade since the Commander's self-exile.)（看着开开心心和莱娅打闹的莱娜，格琳娜却不禁回想起了指挥官离开的十年。）

(The Commander's adjutant is now Groza. There is so much that she wants to ask him about, yet each and every word of hers always gets caught and fails to escape her lips whenever she tries to utter them.)（如今艾莫号上的副官是闪电，她有太多太多想要问的事情了，可那些话语每每一到嘴边，却无法被说出。）

Expensive Hopes 高昂的希望

(At night, Cecht FABN lab in Kyiv's White Zone, clear weather.)（白区，基辅，赛诺菲与法本集团实验室，夜晚，晴。）

(A brand-new frame is constructed at the quickest speed possible and sent to this lab.)（一具全新的素体被以最快的速度制作出来，运送到此处。）

(Cocoon is standing next to Blusphere's frame in the wide and empty lab. She downloads Blusphere's neural cloud backup from the cloud into her new frame.)（空旷的实验室内，茧站在蓝雪球的素体旁，将她过往的心智存档从云端下载，放入了新的素体。）

(Blusphere's eyes spring open soon after. She looks around, seemingly confused as to why she suddenly arrived at this location.)（不多时，蓝雪球便睁开了双眼。她环顾四周，似乎不解于为何在此处出现。）

CocoonWelcome back, Blusphere.欢迎回来，蓝雪球。

BlusphereThe mission...任务……

CocoonThe most recent backup in the cloud is from before your mission began. As for what you experienced during the mission... I had to simulate it using the intel you sent back from your old frame before it was destroyed.云端只保留了你执行任务之前的心智备份，具体你经历了什么……我只能根据你素体被摧毁之前传回的情报做一些推断。

BlusphereThe Survey Corps does not have the capability to destroy my frame.以勘测部队的实力，不可能摧毁我的素体。

CocoonCorrect. You encountered an attacker that wasn't from H.I.D.E. 404 or the Survey Corps. Not only did they manage to force you into activating your self-destruction sequence, it is also highly likely that they have your destroyed frame.没错，你遇到了除了H.I.D.E. 404与勘测部队之外的袭击者，对方不仅把你逼到开启自毁程序，更极有可能俘获了你自毁后的素体。

BlusphereThey still have the chip.芯片也还在敌人手中。

CocoonDon't worry. You managed to destroy all the critical information on the chip with an EMP blast.放心，你利用强弧磁性干扰技术，销毁了任务中需要被带回的芯片资料。

CocoonThe local neural cloud information and all access permissions in your frame have also been destroyed upon your self-destruction. You don't have to worry about any data leakage.素体自毁后你的本地心智以及权限全部被摧毁，不用担心情报泄露的隐患。

CocoonThe cleanup detail searched for the coordinates of your last known transmission but did not manage to find your frame, nor did they find the whereabouts of the unknown attacker.清理部队搜索了你最后回传讯息的坐标点，但始终没有找到你的素体，也没有找到袭击者的下落。

CocoonThis is the new frame prepared for you. Be more careful with it this time.已经给你配备了全新素体，这一次请小心使用。

CocoonI thought that you'd be punished for failing that mission, but it seems that management is unusually generous towards you.原本我以为你任务失败会有些许惩罚，不过看起来，上面对你格外纵容呢。

BlusphereThe mission isn't over yet. Tell me everything and all the intel we have gathered. I will take care of this.任务还未结束，告诉我所有情报，我会进一步处理。

CocoonThe mission is a failure. You don't have to pursue it any further.任务已经失败，不必追查了。

CocoonA new mission is already waiting for you.已经有新的任务等待你去完成。

BlusphereA mission left unfinished is not a failed mission.未完成的任务算不上失败。

BlusphereSend me the coordinates of my last known movements. The chip, my frame... I'll recover them all.把我之前的行动位置，发给我，无论是芯片还是素体，我都会找回来。

CocoonThat's not going to be easy. The cleanup detail has already wrapped up their mission, and all we have are some coordinates from back then and an image of the enemy.没那么容易，清理部队已经收过一次尾了，目前，我们只有过往坐标和敌人的画像。

BlusphereThat's all I need.有这些，就够了。

BlusphereIf I eliminate all of them, there will be no more loose ends left to worry about.只要全部清理掉，就没有更多后患。

CocoonHaha, alright then. Do as you wish.呵呵，好吧。按照你想的做吧。

CocoonAs for your new mission, I'll make arrangements to put it off for later.至于新工作，我会再作安排。

Blusphere...This won't interfere with my regular work assignments.……这件事不会影响我的正常工作。

BlusphereYou of all people shouldn't find it difficult to plan both work assignments so that I can work on both of them at the same time.于你而言，为我做好任务规划，确保两项工作能同时进行并不困难。

CocoonA wonderful idea, but your current mission is to guard the Conglomerate's top brass. I'm afraid that there are no missions in the Yellow Zone for you at this point in time.想法不错，不过，你如今的任务是保护财团的高层，恐怕没有前往黄区的任务。

BlusphereJust... protecting the top brass?只是……保护高层？

BlusphereFrom what I know, the White Zones and Green Zones have not reached a danger level that would necessitate our deployment as their guards.据我所知，白区和绿区在危险性上还未到委派我们保护的程度。

CocoonFor those in the top brass, staying alive is everything.对高层而言，他们的性命更为重要。

CocoonWho knows what kind of things they experience in their daily lives?谁知道高层会在日常生活中经历什么呢？

CocoonA malfunctioning aircraft? A traffic jam? Or perhaps a slightly slippery ceramic tile in a villa pool?意外故障的飞机？交通复杂的路况？或者是别墅泳池里微滑的瓷砖？

CocoonWhen unexpected things happen, the odds of survival for them go way up if they have us by their side.在意外发生的时候，有我们陪在她们身边，能够大幅度提高她们的生存概率。

BlusphereI'm not interested in ordinary missions involving the guard of top brass. Let me handle battlefield cleanup.我对普通的保护高层任务没兴趣，让我负责战场清理的工作。

CocoonHaha... As you wish. I will make the arrangements for you.呵呵……如你所愿，我会安排好一切。

(Cocoon gives off a smile fraught with meaning. She plays with her hair, curling a lock of long hair around her index finger with gentle grace.)（茧意味深长地笑了笑，指尖勾起她的长发，轻柔地绕着食指旋转。）

Cocoon(Specified guard missions like these aren't ordinary in any way.)（护卫工作可算不上普通工作。）

Cocoon(They are already on the move. I wonder who will be the next person to take up that position?)（他们已经在动手了，这一次位置会轮到谁的手上呢？）

(The ops room aboard the Elmo.)（艾莫号的指挥室内。）

MaylingCommander, Klukai and the others have returned with the raw materials bound for the pharmaceutical factory.指挥官，可露凯她们已经接到药厂需要运送的原材料回来了。

MechtyIt's finally over. I'm spent.总算结束了，好累啊。

KlukaiGet up! There's still cargo left on the transport. Don't you dare sleep when you didn't even go into battle once.起来，货车上的货还没搬完，一次战斗都没经历，别倒头就睡。

MechtyEh... But I spent half the day working as the driver.诶，我可是当了半天的搬货司机。

MechtyKalina did inform the pharmaceutical factory to prepare everything accordingly, but once we loaded the materials into our transport in the Green Zone, we were still flagged down by inspectors on our way back. They told us that they needed to reconfirm our list of items.明明格琳娜已经安排药厂把所有东西都准备好了，结果在我们去绿区接完货出来的时候被检察员拦下，说是要重新确认商品清单。

MechtyWhy did we have to suffer something like that...?哪有这样的嘛……

CommanderIt's very likely that the news of rising vaccine prices in Yellow Zones has reached their ears, so they naturally kept an eye out for any shipments related to pharmaceutical products like ours.大概率是因为黄区疫苗价格上涨的消息不胫而走，这批货和医疗药品相关，自然被盯上了。

CommanderDid they discover the goods that Kalin prepared for me?格琳给我筹备的物资有被发现吗？

KlukaiThose are safe, don't worry.一切安全，没有问题。

KlukaiHowever, they did a thorough check on the extra daily supplies that we brought with us and confiscated some of them.不过，我们额外携带的日用品被着重搜查了一番，部分物品被收走了。

(Krolik and Nemesis arrive at the ops room with a few boxes as we spoke. One by one, Mayling verifies their contents against her list.)（谈话间，克罗丽科和纳美西丝扛着几个箱子来到了指挥室。美玲拿着清单一一核对箱子里面的货物。）

MaylingA pillow?枕头？

MechtyAh... That's my sleep-guarantee pillow. It's important to me, so make sure you don't dirty it by putting it on the floor.啊，那是我最重要的安睡枕头，千万不要放在地上弄脏了。

MaylingTwo, three, that's a lot... Wait, that's the wine that I wanted!两个、三个，数量好多……是我想要的酒！

MaylingDid it get stuffed into the pillow?竟然被放在了枕头里面吗？

MaylingWe were supposed to have three boxes, so why are there only two bottles of rice wine left?我看清单上明明写着有三箱才对，怎么现在只有两瓶？

KlukaiThey were all taken away as "a token of appreciation".全部被当作孝敬收走了。

MaylingEh??? They took three entire boxes?!诶——那可是整整三箱诶？！

KlukaiBut thanks to that, they didn't force more inspections on us and let us leave once they grabbed what they liked.托它们的福，拿到满意的东西后，检察员没有继续强行搜查，放我们离开了。

KlukaiWe were granted passage under NOMFA's name for this mission, yet they still dared to mess with the goods that we're escorting.这次的任务是以非军事管理局参与的名义获得通行资格，那群人，就连我们护送的商品都敢动。

KlukaiThey might have taken more if we were from some other corporation.换成别的企业，恐怕要的更多。

MaylingI understand why the underground brokers have hiked their prices so high now.我现在明白暗商手里的商品为什么涨价那么多了。

Mayling(Whimper) How long will it take for the prices to go down...?呜……到底什么时候价格才能降回去啊……

CommanderInventory the goods as quickly as you can. I'm afraid the prices won't go down for anything for a while.尽快把货物清点出来。恐怕短时间之内所有商品的价格都不会回落。

KlukaiPrices for vaccines fluctuate day to day in the Green Zones. It's nearly impossible for regular people to secure a vaccination appointment.绿区的疫苗价格一天一个价，普通人根本排不上接种预约。

Klukai404's Team B is flooded with requests at the moment. Vector took the opportunity to raise our rates under Leva's advice, but still, a substantial backlog remains.目前404二队接到的工作呈直线上涨，在莱娅的建议下，维克托趁机涨了不少任务价格，但还是有不少任务积压。

CommanderEven 404 is raising their prices, yet our commission rates have not gone up at all.404的委托价格涨了，我们的委托任务价格可一点都没涨啊。

CommanderThe underground brokers have more than tripled their vaccine prices in the past few days. If this goes on any longer, most people in the Yellow Zones won't be able to afford their vaccines, and that will eventually build up to something terrible.这几天暗商那边的疫苗价格已经翻了数倍，再这样下去大批量黄区的人买不起疫苗，迟早出事。

CommanderKeep monitoring our surroundings. Oh, and before I forget, take out some of the raw materials from our mission shipment and send it for checks later.继续留意周遭环境。对了，拿部分货出来，届时送去检查一下。

KlukaiLeva already ran some checks and found no irregularities with the raw materials once she found ties between the Stuart Group and the pharmaceutical factory.莱娅在发现这次运送原材料的企业和斯图尔特集团有所牵连后，就已经对原材料进行了调查，确认没有任何问题。

(The Elmo speeds forward with its cargo and quickly arrives at the mission destination, a pharmaceutical factory in the Yellow Zone.)（艾莫号携带物资一路疾驰，很快便抵达了在黄区任务中的医药生产场地。）

(A lone, low-rise factory stands in the vast emptiness, surrounded by a silent stillness that induces the belief that no one lives here.)（空旷的环境中，一栋低矮的药厂静静矗立，周围寂静无声，俨然一幅无人生活在此的样子。）

(The factory spits out three vehicles to block the Elmo's advance, as if it detected the arrival of outsiders.)（似乎察觉到了外来者，工厂之内快速驶出三辆车，阻拦艾莫号的靠近。）

???Who goes there?什么人？

CommanderB.R.I.E.F. We came to deliver raw materials for vaccine manufacturing in accordance with our mission terms.赏金猎人协会，按照任务约定，运送疫苗的原材料。

???Finally. Put it on the ground. We'll haul it in.总算是送来货了，放地上，我们会搬回去。

CommanderAs per the stipulated agreement, this delivery requires an in-person signature upon receipt. There's a total of 82 crates of raw materials.根据约定需要当面签收，一共是八十二箱原材料。

CommanderI've already arranged for Dolls to bring the shipment down. We can haul the cargo onto your vehicles if you wish.我已经安排人形搬下车了，可以直接送到你们车上。

???Hmph... How obedient.哼，还算听话。

CommanderShouldn't we deliver it straight into your factory? It'll take quite a long time to haul everything off once you're back inside.不需要直接为你们送到工厂内吗？卸货一次需要不少时间。

???Mind your own business. We're going to personally verify the quantity; there must be 82 crates, not one less.少多管闲事，我们要亲自确认数量，八十二箱一箱都不能少。

CommanderSure. Please confirm and provide the verification code.好，麻烦确认以及提供一下接收码。

???Huh? Verification code?啊？接收码？！

???When did such a thing even get included? Doesn't your task just ask you to deliver it to the designated location?什么时候有这种东西了？任务上不是写着只要送到目的地就行？

CommanderThe verification is a request from your side. This is to ensure no error upon receipt.是你们要求的服务，为了确保接收无误。

CommanderMight be an order from your management. Perhaps you could ask the staff responsible for such matters.可能是高层下达的指令，不如，问问负责对接此事的相关人员。

???Oh, right, of course. Hold on while we confirm the details.对、对，等我们确认一下。

???Found it. The verification code is... 4040?找到了，接收码是4040？

CommanderGot it. Groza, do it.确认过了，闪电动手。

(Groza stops carrying the crates and shatters the windshield of the lead vehicle with a jump kick. The driver, unable to react in time, is rendered unconscious with his fate unknown.)（原本还在搬运箱子的闪电，一个起跳踹碎了为首车辆的玻璃。处于驾驶位的司机，还未反应过来，便被踹晕过去不知生死。）

Angry VarjagerHmph... it's an attack! Fight back! Give them hell!哼，敌袭！给我攻击！给我攻击！

Unconcerned VarjagerWhat's going on? Why are they attacking us?怎么回事，为什么要攻击我们？

VepleyWe've seen through your deception☆~你们的伪装已经被戳破啦☆~

VepleyThe number of crates isn't 82, and you gave us the wrong verification code~原材料箱子数和接收码不对哦~

Unconcerned VarjagerHow is that possible?! We've already decoded the factory's latest communications—怎么可能我们明明已经破译了工厂的最新通讯——

VepleyYou played right into the Commander's trap.完全落入指挥官设计好的陷阱了呢。

Angry VarjagerGrab the boxes!快抢原材料！

(A mass of Varjagers swarm Krolik, who stands next to the cargo. She lifts a crate with one hand before hurling it forward with great force.)（大量瓦良格帮成员蜂拥涌向货物旁的克罗丽科，克罗丽科单手抬了抬箱子，随后大力向前方掷出。）

KrolikHmph. Here's your "shipment"! Catch!哼，你们要的“货”，送你们了！

Angry VarjagerDon't shoot, dumbasses! Catch the meds!别攻击，蠢货！接好药剂！

(A number of Varjagers put down their guns. They are about to catch the crate when it is shattered by bullets from Krolik's gun in the next second.)（放下枪械的瓦良格帮成员正欲接下箱子，下一秒，克罗丽科枪中的子弹便已飞射而出，在瓦良格帮成员面前，击碎了箱子。）

(Fragments of the shattered box and shrapnel fly in all directions, leaving Varjagers who got hit crumpled on the ground.)（破碎的箱子碎片连同弹片四散而出，令中弹的瓦良格帮派成员瘫软在地。）

VarjagerGaaaaah—啊——

VarjagerNo pharmaceuticals in the boxes! Attack them!箱子里面没有药剂，攻击他们！

GrozaNo pharmaceuticals found in this vehicle. Krolik, Vepley, check on the other two vehicles.这辆车上没有药剂。克罗丽科、维普蕾确认另外两辆车的情况。

VepleyHey~ Did you guys bring the pharmaceuticals you robbed from other people?嗨~之前你们抢走的药剂，有好好带着吗？

Angry VarjagerWe've run into a bunch of rival crew! Everyone! Get them!碰上想黑吃黑的了！动手，都给我上！

NemesisBlack vines spread hither, chanting doom...黑色的藤蔓蔓延至此，吟唱绝境……

KrolikSome enemies remain in the factory!药厂里还有敌人！

Expensive Hopes 高昂的希望

(We rout the Varjagers who, in their naivety, attempt to rob us of the raw materials. I do not order Groza to pursue them right away. Instead, I ask Mayling to remain on board the Elmo to keep track of where they retreated to.)（妄图掠夺医疗原材料的瓦良格帮狼狈逃窜后，我并没有急着安排闪电追击他们，而是让美玲留在车上，留意他们的撤离位置。）

(Groza's team enters the pharmaceutical factory listed as our mission's destination, but finds the spacious factory devoid of human presence.)（闪电小队进入任务中的医药厂，却发现空旷的药厂内没有任何人类存在。）

VepleyIs the Phia Pharmaceutical factory entirely automated?这家菲尔娅医药厂竟然是完全依靠机械运转吗？

ColphneI hope that means that none of us will need medical attention.希望医疗箱不会派上用场。

GrozaCommander, there is no trace of injured humans in the factory.指挥官，药厂里面没有人类受伤的痕迹。

GrozaThe Varjagers likely just hacked into the security systems, then took control of the factory.瓦良格帮应该是入侵了工厂安保系统后，直接接管了药厂。

GrozaAll production lines have stopped at the moment. We haven't found any finished medical products.目前所有生产线都处于暂停状态，我们没有发现已经制作完成的医药产品。

GrozaOf course, it's possible that the Varjagers took away any finished products.不排除是瓦良格帮已经将它们搬走的原因。

(The spacious factory gets more eerie by the minute. Groza spends a long time searching, but does not even find any daily necessities that would have indicated prior human presence.)（空荡荡的药厂显得极为诡异，闪电搜索了许久，连人类的日用品都不曾发现。）

CommanderPlace the raw materials onto the conveyor belts as per the request from our client.按照委托方的要求，把材料搬到传送带上。

KrolikThis is a huge factory. Aren't the owners afraid of it getting robbed clean with this little security?这么大的药厂，才这些安保，就不怕被洗劫一空吗？

ColphneThe conveyor belt has started moving. Those metal boards are covering it way too well... I can't see what's going on inside.传送链条动了。这些铁皮遮掩得也太好了吧，完全看不清里面在做什么。

MechtyThose machines will work normally as long as the program triggers are set well.只要设定好程序，机械就可以正常运转。

MechtyNow that's an ideal setup... The designer of this factory is a genius.这才是最理想的工作状态……这家工厂的设计者，真是天才。

KlukaiBe more thorough in your search. The designs of the equipment here remind me of something familiar.搜查得细致一点，这里的器械设计风格有点眼熟。

MechtyHuh?嗯？

(Klukai walks along the production line. Suddenly, alarms start blaring throughout the factory.)（可露凯跟随流水线走在工厂之内，忽然之间，整个工厂发出警报声。）

Mechanical Reminder VoiceRaw materials have been received. Non-staff personnel are requested to leave the factory as soon as possible.原料已接收完成，请非工作人员尽快离开工厂。

VepleyEh?! Hold on, why didn't the factory try to kick out the Varjagers when they were here?诶？！等等，刚才瓦良格帮在这里的时候怎么不驱赶他们？

Mechanical Reminder VoiceI repeat: non-staff personnel are requested to leave the factory as soon as possible.再度提示，请非工作人员尽快离开工厂。

KlukaiThe people behind this have likely been monitoring this pharmaceutical factory all along.幕后之人恐怕一直在监控这个药厂。

KlukaiCommander, should we get our hands on the surveillance footage or change the access permissions?指挥官， 要找出监控或更改权限吗？

CommanderNo need. We don't have to act rashly at the moment.不必，暂时无需贸然行动。

CommanderWe still have a lead; we follow the retreating Varjagers.我们还有一条线索，跟上那些撤离的瓦良格帮。

(The Elmo drives through the Yellow Zone, following the defeated Varjager remnants at a considerably long distance.)（艾莫号行驶于黄区，始终和之前遇到的瓦良格帮残存势力保持着较远的距离。）

(According to intel we gathered by listening in on their comms, these remnants are heading to their base.)（根据从瓦良格帮的通讯频道内窃听的情报表示，这队残兵正赶往他们的根据地。）

(Their comms channel suddenly erupts with the sounds of explosions, followed by panicked calls for reinforcements.)（通讯频道内乍然出现轰鸣声，与此同时还有急切的求援。）

Despondent VarjagerWe're being attacked! Send backup!敌袭！快来支援！

Calm VarjagerWe are already on the way.已经在路上了。

Calm VarjagerHow many? Don't tell me that a few Dolls managed to send you packing again...敌人数量？别告诉我，你们又被几个人形打得落花流水。

Despondent VarjagerMore than a dozen vehicles! I-it's Mangi Security!对方有十几辆车，是、是曼尼安保！

Despondent VarjagerMissile! Evade! Evade! AAAHHH—有导弹——快躲开！啊——

(The comms spits out a cacophony of noises. The missile hits the ground, overturning the Varjagers' vehicles in a loud explosion.)（通讯器中传来嘈杂的声响，飞射而出的导弹冲击区域，巨大的轰鸣声中瓦良格帮派的车辆转瞬之间便炸翻上天。）

Despondent VarjagerSend backup! They're on us—快来支援，那群家伙盯上我们了——

(Daytime, office in ODE-07 within the Green Zone, clear weather.)（绿区，ODE-07办公室内，白天，晴。）

(After receiving intel from the Commander on the rising prices of illegal Yellow Zone vaccines and the widespread stealing of pharmaceutical materials, Kalina launches investigations into those matters right away.)（从指挥官那边得到黄区非法疫苗价格上涨，以及医疗原材料大规模被掠夺的情报后，格琳娜立刻展开了相关调查。）

(Consulting with Pavel on the aforementioned matters, Kalina unexpectedly learns that he is ineligible for a vaccination. And thus, she uses NOMFA's authority to secure a vaccination slot for Pavel.)（咨询了巴维尔部分情报时，格琳娜意外得知了对方排不上疫苗接种的情况，便用非军事管理局的权限申请到了接种名额。）

KalinaI've scheduled your vaccination. Just show them this voucher at the designated time and place to take the vaccine.你的疫苗接种已经安排好了，根据凭证届时就能去指定地点接种。

PavelYou're a lifesaver, Miss Kalina!帮大忙了，格琳娜女士！

PavelI-I hope that didn't put too much of a dent in your pocket.这、没花你们太多钱吧。

KalinaDon't worry, we paid the standard price.放心，是正常价格。

Kalina(And it was that easy to secure an appointment too... I didn't expect there to be such a great difference between how NOMFA staff and regular people are treated.)（并且毫无难度……没想到，非军事管理局和普通人的待遇竟然会相差如此之多。）

PavelThat's wonderful... (Sigh) ...It's nearly impossible to secure an appointment for the vaccine nowadays. The price has spiked way too high.那就好，诶……现在想预约疫苗根本预约不上，接种机会都炒上了天价。

PavelOur guys are running out of vaccines. Most of us have no hope of taking the vaccine on a regular basis... We're lucky enough to even get a dose.大伙儿手里的疫苗都不多了，别说按时接种，能有疫苗都算是幸运的。

PavelI myself was forced to the point of asking around if there were other official ways to get the vaccine. But in the end, I still had to trouble you, Miss Kalina...我也是不得已，才想到能不能问问有没有别的官方渠道，没想到最后还是麻烦了格琳娜女士。

KalinaTo be honest, I'm here to ask you about something in particular.其实，这次找你有一件事想要问你。

PavelOf course. Please feel free. I'll tell you anything I know.您说、您说，我一定知无不言。

KalinaMr. Pavel, how much do you know about the distribution channels for unofficial vaccines throughout the Yellow Zones?巴维尔先生，您是否清楚黄区流通的非正规疫苗渠道呢？

KalinaAccording to our investigation, there are still a large number of unofficial vaccines circulating throughout the Yellow Zones despite the recent Girard Group incident.根据我们的调查，即便在吉拉尔集团事件发生之后，黄区依旧有不少非正规疫苗流通。

PavelUm...这……

KalinaWe are here to perform a deeper investigation to prevent tragedies like what was caused by the Girard Group from ever happening again. I'm hoping for you to tell us if you know anything useful.为了避免吉拉尔集团的事情重演，我们正在进一步调查，希望您能提供相关信息。

(The newly-obtained vaccination voucher in Pavel's hands suddenly feels terribly hot to the touch. He looks to Kalina right in front of him, then to the voucher in his hands. Pavel hesitates for a moment before gritting his teeth and pushing the voucher towards Kalina.)（巴维尔只觉得刚到手的疫苗接种凭证瞬间变得烫手无比，他看着眼前的格琳娜又看看手里拿到的凭证，犹豫片刻，一咬牙硬是将先前收到的疫苗接种凭证推了回去。）

PavelI apologize... I can't talk about that.抱歉……我不能说。

PavelThe vaccines may be illegal, but they are lifesavers for those working in the Yellow Zones like us.那些疫苗虽是非法的，但对于在黄区生活的人来说，那是我们救命的药。

PavelThe official vaccines are way too expensive. To be honest, I've known plenty of friends who have gone bankrupt just to get a vaccine.正规的疫苗太贵了，实不相瞒，我见过不少因为疫苗倾家荡产的同伴。

PavelI... I can't destroy our people's lifeline just to secure benefits for myself!我……我不能因为自己，断了大家的活路啊！

KalinaMr. Pavel...巴维尔先生……

PavelI'm sorry, Miss Kalina, but not all manufacturers of illegal vaccines do it with bad intentions. For people in the Yellow Zones, we're lucky enough to even have cheap vaccines. Who would complain when their lives depend on it?抱歉，格琳娜女士，不是所有的非法疫苗生产厂家都是坏人。对黄区的人而言，能获得廉价疫苗已经是幸运的了，又有谁会抱怨其他呢？

LevaBut don't you want to know whether the Yellow Zone vaccines actually work?你不想搞清楚现在流通在黄区的疫苗，是否有效吗？

PavelI...这……

LevaTo my knowledge, prices for Yellow Zone vaccines have gone up quite a bit, and numerous vaccine shipments originating from Green Zones have been robbed on their way to their Yellow Zone destinations.据我所知，黄区的疫苗价格上涨了不少，已经发生了多起绿区运送到黄区的疫苗被抢夺的事件。

LevaWe are currently investigating such cases. If the vaccines do work, we won't pursue the matter.我们正在调查相关事件，如果疫苗效果良好，我们不会多说什么。

LevaBut if they are defective vaccines, we must destroy the related supply chains before more people are harmed.但若是发现劣质疫苗，及时捣毁相关产业链才能挽救普通人。

LennaThat's right!嗯嗯！

LennaIf the Yellow Zone folks saved up just to take vaccines that turn out to be harmful... they'll lose their money AND their lives!黄区大家省吃俭用买的疫苗，万一是有害的……那岂不是人财两空？

PavelThat's terrible!那不行！

LennaFurthermore, if we don't solve the root cause of the vaccine robberies, the prices of Yellow Zone vaccines might never go down.而且，不从根源上解决疫苗被抢夺的问题，黄区的疫苗价格只怕还会居高不下。

PavelOh, as expected of people with leadership responsibilities, you are far better than I am at thinking long-term.噢，还是领导们想得更深远。

PavelPlease excuse me, ladies. I was mistaken.是我想岔了，几位领导别介意。

PavelShould I ask my guys to bring all the vaccines they have for a check? They don't have much left.要不，我问问兄弟们手里面残存的疫苗，你们都查查？

KalinaPlease do. We'll have a look and exchange them for official vaccines in return.当然可以，我们会用正规疫苗做交换。

KalinaI'm hoping for you to tell us about the prices and distribution channels for these unofficial vaccines. Once you do, we'll investigate the vaccines' safety as soon as we can.希望您能将疫苗的价格、对应获取渠道告知我们，我们会尽快确认疫苗的安全性。

PavelWe'll receive official vaccines in return?!用正规疫苗交换？！

PavelThat's wonderful! I'll call them right now and make sure that they arrive ASAP.太好了，我立刻去联系，一定尽快帮您送来。

(Pavel is true to his word. Kalina soon receives a variety of illegal vaccines that are currently in circulation throughout the Yellow Zones.)（巴维尔的速度很快，没过多久，格琳娜便收到了黄区目前流通的不同非法疫苗。）

LennaLeva, were you able to find any clues about the stolen raw materials from these vaccines?莱娅姐，能从疫苗里面找到消失原材料的线索吗？

LevaThis vaccine belongs to the cheapest yet most effective variety available at this moment. It actually surpasses official Green Zone vaccines in its effectiveness.目前来看，这支疫苗是市场上所有疫苗中最为有效且廉价的，其效果甚至超越了绿区的正规疫苗。

LennaWith tech like this, why don't they just register as a proper company and sell them legitimately?有这样的技术，为什么不注册成正规公司，直接卖疫苗？

LennaVaccine companies are earning very well these days.现在疫苗公司的收入很高吧。

LevaThe producers of this vaccine probably limited its distribution because they don't want to be noticed by legally registered vaccine companies.对方限定流通渠道，应该是希望这样的疫苗不要出现在正规公司视野之中。

LevaIntel shows that this vaccine originated from a private hospital in the Yellow Zone, which had been providing cheap, official vaccines over the decades of its operation.情报显示，疫苗出自一家黄区私人医院，过往几十年间，医院始终提供较为廉价的正规疫苗。

LevaThis ended eight years ago, when the hospital closed down after a massive fire.直至八年前，医院经历大火后，私人医院关闭了。

LennaA fire?!大火？！

LevaIndeed. The married couple directing the hospital died in the fire. The arsonist was an ownerless Doll.对，院长夫妇在火灾中意外死亡，纵火的是无主人形。

LevaTurns out that the Doll's former owner couldn't afford vaccines, which was why he sent it on an assignment to loot the hospital at night.根据调查，人形的前主人因没钱购买疫苗，才会委派人形深夜潜入医院进行掠夺。

LevaHe claimed to have sent his Doll at that time of night in order to avoid entangling innocents into the matter, completely unaware that the couple running the hospital was still around, working on injured patients deep into the night.他宣称为了避免牵连无辜特地选了深夜，完全不知晓那天院长夫妇仍在医院中治疗伤患。

Lenna...What the hell?!……什么嘛？！

LennaHe chose arson and robbery just because of a flimsy excuse like that? And he made a Doll do his dirty work too.就因为这样的理由，选择纵火抢夺？还让人形干这种脏事。

LevaAccording to Pavel, that private hospital closed to the public after the fire.根据巴维尔所言，大火发生之后那家医院便不再对外营业。

LevaThe couple's daughter inherited the hospital, changing policy to provide healthcare only to trusted long-time customers and those who come in with severe radiation sickness.院长夫妇的女儿继承了医院，但仅会为信任的老客人以及辐射病较为严重的客人提供私人诊疗服务。

LevaPavel received this vaccine from a friend who had to retire from service due to radiation sickness. It was given by a doctor in the hospital.这支疫苗，便是他因辐射病退役的朋友从医生那边获取的。

LevaThis vaccine contains live cells that we were unable to analyze properly, but it is excellent at dealing with radiation sickness.疫苗内存在我们无法解析的活性细胞，能对辐射病起到很强的功效。

Leva...It's a pity for this kind of tech to be confined within the Yellow Zones.这样的技术……留在黄区，可惜了。

LennaDo you believe that they are the people behind the vaccine raw material robberies?莱娅姐是在怀疑，对方就是抢夺疫苗原材料的势力？

LevaThe illegally produced vaccines exist precisely because someone is willing to purchase the stolen raw materials.有非法疫苗的存在，那些原材料才有接收方会购买。

LevaPerhaps the hospital simply buys raw materials from underground brokers. Still, the tech in this vaccine is reason enough for us to conduct an investigation into the source.也许对方只是从暗商处购买原材料。不过这样的疫苗制作技术，已经值得我们去好好调查一下它的渠道来源了。

LevaPavel gave us the hospital's coordinates and the intermediary's contact, Lady Isa. She is unable to visit the hospital right now, but you can go to the hospital on her behalf.巴维尔给了我们具体医院的坐标以及中间联系人，伊莎女士目前不方便拜访，你以伊莎女士的名义前去调查。

LevaThe hospital is hesitant towards strangers for good reason, so if you are unable to enter, make sure you contact Lady Isa for assistance.那边不轻易接待陌生人，如果无法进入，就联系伊莎女士求助。

LennaLeave it to me, Leva! I'll definitely complete this mission!放心吧，莱娅姐，我保证完成任务。

(Orphi Hospital in the Yellow Zone, clear weather.)（黄区 ，奥尔菲医院，晴。）

(Lenna arrives at the coordinates of the Yellow Zone hospital. The clean and spacious hospital interior exudes a peaceful quiet that contrasts heavily with the scenery outdoors. A faint, calming scent lingers in the air.)（莱娜根据情报中提供的坐标抵达了黄区医院，干净宽敞的医院内步入后有着不同于外围的宁静，空气中隐约漂浮着令人舒缓的香气。）

LennaThis place... It's in the Yellow Zone, but it definitely won't lose to any hospitals in Green Zones.这里的环境……和绿区比起来也毫不逊色嘛。

???This is a private hospital that does not accept unknown strangers as patients. The closest hospital is to the east, 20 minutes away by car.私人医院不接陌生来客，往东开车大约20分钟能去最近的医院。

LennaHold on just a second, I didn't even say anything yet!等等，我还什么都没说呢！

???You are not on our patient list. I won't let you in.你不在医院的客人名单里，我是不会放你进去的。

LennaIsa is on your list, right? Elinda, I'm here to collect vaccines used to treat her radiation sickness on her behalf. Isa introduced you to me~伊莎在你们的名单之内吧。艾琳达，我是来帮伊莎领取治疗辐射病的疫苗的。伊莎有和我介绍过你哦~

ElindaHuh? I have no idea who you are. Don't go thinking that you'll be able to slip in with a patient's name. What is your relationship with Isa?哈？我和你一点都不熟，别以为报一个名字就能混进医院，你和伊莎什么关系？

LennaUh...唔……

ElindaI've seen more than a hundred who tried to do what you did, trying to get in on behalf of someone else. This is a private hospital that serves only select clients. If you need medical services, you should go to another hospital.像你这样用客人名义拜访的，我遇到过上百个。这里是私人医院，仅对部分固定客人开放，如果需要医疗服务，可以前往别的医院。

LennaIsa and I are...我和伊莎是……

ElindaStop. I don't want to hear any excuses. My elder sister's rules will not change for you; the patient must come to the hospital themselves.好了，我不想听任何借口，姐姐的规矩不会改变，只有客人本人拜访，才被允许进入。

LennaAhem.咳咳。

LennaIsa and I are... family?我和伊莎是……家人？

(Lenna recalls information about Isa that was provided by Leva: Isa has a daughter, her sole remaining family member. Lenna hesitates for a long time before she manages to utter the word "family" in an uncertain tone of voice.)（想到莱娅提供的艾琳达资料，对方目前的亲人只有一个女儿，莱娜犹豫许久才略带怀疑地吐出“家人”的描述。）

(Elinda, who was already waving Lenna away, stops and turns around to look Lenna up and down upon hearing the word "family".)（艾琳达摆摆手全然不想和莱娜纠缠的模样，听到莱娜“家人”两字后，诧异地转过身子，上下打量莱娜。）

ElindaYou... You're a Doll, aren't you? Don't let yourself be tricked by a human.你……应该是人形吧，不是人类。别被人类骗了。

ElindaTo humans, Dolls are just mere tools. No one would treat a Doll as part of their family.人类只会把人形当作工具，怎么可能把人形当作家人。

LennaThe Commander does that!指挥官就会！

LennaAhem... What I meant was that... your description was too narrow-minded. But I get what you mean.咳、咳……我的意思是——你的描述太狭隘了。不过，我能理解你的说法。

Lenna(I was planning to pretend to be Isa's daughter. Why did I slip up so quickly? ...The good thing is that she didn't seem to realize that I was making it up?)（本来还想假装成伊莎女儿的，竟然这么快就暴露了吗？还好，对方似乎并没有觉得我在假装是伊莎的女儿？）

LennaIt's true that most humans treat Dolls as mere tools, but there are always exceptions!虽然，绝大部分人类只是把人形当作工具罢了，但是总有人是不一样的！

LennaIt's precisely because of these exceptions that those who ARE treated as "family" feel so strongly about their human family.就是这样的存在十分稀有，才显得能被称为“家人”的存在弥足珍贵。

(Lenna accidentally blurts out the word "Commander" in conversation.)（提到家人，莱娜下意识就脱口而出指挥官。）

(The young girl stares at Lenna expressionlessly. Just as Lenna starts to question her own acting, worried that she might have given herself away, Elinda unexpectedly gives her a subtle smile, nodding in agreement.)（面前的少女面无表情地盯着莱娜，就在莱娜质疑自身的演技，担忧是不是已经暴露时，对方忽然露出了微妙的笑容，颇为认同地点了点头。）

Elinda...You've been lucky, I see.你……运气很好嘛。

ElindaI'm willing to believe that you are part of Lady Isa's family now.我相信你是伊莎女士的家人了。

LennaI see. If you would please help me with the vaccines, then...那疫苗的事情拜托了！

ElindaStill, my elder sister's rules are absolute.姐姐的规定，不可能为一个人改变。

ElindaGet her to come with you, and I'll allow both of you in.让她和你一起过来，我会放你们进去。

LennaEh?诶？

ElindaI'm already making an exception for you!这已经是对你的额外通融了！

ElindaNormally, if a client asked someone else to pick up their medicine for them, I'd remove their privilege to receive medicines from us!原本擅自安排别人来领取药剂的客人，可是会被我直接取消领药资格的！

LennaIt's just an act of picking up medicine. Is there a need to be so strict about it?只是领取药物，不必这么严格吧。

ElindaOf course! Who knows what kind of extreme lengths those radiation-addled people would go to just to ensure their survival?当然要严格！谁知道那群辐射病患者为了活下去，会做什么偏激的事情。

ElindaYou won't want to know where the last "client" who tried to rob us is "sleeping" at.你不会想知道，上一个抢药的“客人”如今沉眠在什么地方吧。

ElindaAnyway, as long as Lady Isa comes here herself, I'll allow both of you into the hospital. This is already a huge concession on my part.现在，只要伊莎女士本人到访，我就允许你们一起进去，这已经是我做出的巨大让步了。

(Elinda has already typed out Lady Isa's contact during their conversation.)（谈话间，艾琳达已经拨出了和伊莎女士的通讯。）

(Isa finally takes the call after a long wait. A large hood obscures most of her face.)（对方良久后才接通了通讯，巨大的兜帽遮住了对方的大半部分面容。）

(Elinda subconsciously makes a "tsk" upon seeing how Isa is dressed. An expression of disapproval emerges.)（艾琳达看到对方装扮的瞬间，下意识地“啧”了一声，脸上浮现出了不认同的情绪。）

ElindaLady Isa, according to the rules of the hospital, you must be here in person if you want us to give you the treatment drugs.伊莎女士，根据医院的规定，只有患者本人到场，我们才会为你开具治疗药剂。

IsaI'm sorry, I'm not very mobile...抱歉，我不太方便行动……

ElindaYour symptoms seem to have worsened since the last time we saw you. Did you really take your vaccinations on schedule?您的症状，比上次见面时严重了不少，真的有按时接受疫苗注射吗？

ElindaY-you didn't sell the vaccines, right?你……该不会把药剂卖给了别人吧。

Isa(Coughs) ...No... I am very clear on the doctor's rules. I would never sell them.咳、咳……没有……我清楚医生的规矩，不会出售药剂。

IsaI'll do my best to come in person as soon as I can.我会尽快亲自拜访的。

ElindaIf you want to live on, then make sure to adhere to my elder sister's instructions to the letter.想要活下去就老老实实遵守姐姐的医嘱。

ElindaYou are free to come here for treatment at any time. I'll make time for you.你想要什么时候来都可以，我会为你预留好会面时间。

ElindaJust be reminded that clients who sell our drugs will be put on our permanent ban list. If that happens, I'll never let you see my sister even if you beg us on your knees.提前提醒你，出售药剂的客人，会被列入永久禁止合作的名单。就算你跪在医院门口求姐姐，我也绝对不会让你见到她。

Tangled Roots 盘根错节

LennaYou can relax now, Commander. Lady Isa has agreed to visit the hospital with me.放心吧，指挥官。伊莎女士已经答应陪我一起拜访医院了。

LennaI'll call you when we're seeing the doctor. If you have any questions, I'll be able to ask the doctor for you right away.我可以在见医生的时候同步和指挥官通讯，无论指挥官有什么问题，我都可以立刻帮你询问。

CommanderGreat.好。

LennaHehe, this way, it'll feel like you're always by my side.嘿嘿，这样就会有一种指挥官时刻都在我身边的感觉呢。

LennaI don't know when I'll be able to go to the Elmo.也不知道什么时候才能去指挥官的艾莫号。

LennaI kind of miss our Griffin days. Everyone was together back then...稍微有点怀念格里芬的日子了，那时候大家都在一块儿，不像现在……

CommanderI'm pretty sure 404 still does missions together.现在的404也在一起执行任务吧。

LennaBut everyone's pretty busy. Sometimes when I want to hang out with Leva, I see her busy with work and decide not to bother her.但是大家都很忙嘛，偶尔想去找莱娅姐玩，但看着她还在忙着工作，就想着要不还是不打扰莱娅姐了。

LennaIt's not just Leva, too. Miss Kalin, Robella, Klukai, Vector, Welrod... Everyone is moving forward...不止是莱娅姐，格琳姐、洛贝拉、可露凯、维克托、维尔德……所有人都在往前走……

LennaEspecially you, Commander.特别是指挥官。

LennaDon't let your work stop you from getting proper rest. You'll break your body otherwise.指挥官要注意好好休息，不要被繁忙的事务压垮。

CommanderRest, huh...?休息吗……

(I'm afraid that the secrets that lie within Helena and Melanie are entwined with forces that are more complicated than what I already knew of. The more I investigate, the more I realize that it's no longer possible for me to remain an outsider to the conspiracy.)（无论是海伦娜还是梅兰妮，她们身上的秘密只怕牵涉势力比我目前知晓得更为复杂。越往下深查，就越明白，我早已不可能置身事外。）

(I once thought that destroying Paradeus would bring an end to all things. But now, I recognize that if I want to wipe Paradeus from the face of this earth, not only do I have to eradicate their leaders, I must also obliterate the rapacious conglomerates and consortia who wish to use Paradeus as a means to sate their endless gluttony.)（我本以为摧毁帕拉蒂斯足矣，可现在看来，想要彻底摧毁帕拉蒂斯，要消灭的不仅是它们的领导人，还有那些渴望借助帕拉蒂斯获得更多东西的财团。）

(They are better at hiding their actions and people than Paradeus. In fact, they can use Paradeus as a scapegoat whenever they are under threat, then lean back and sip on wine while they watch everything unfold.)（他们比帕拉蒂斯隐藏得更为隐蔽，甚至随时都能将帕拉蒂斯当作弃子，在背后高枕无忧。）

(I have never regretted the decision I made a decade back. If I stayed with Griffin, I would have been pushed onto a path of complicity.)（我从未后悔过十年前所做的选择，继续待在格里芬迎接我的只有同流合污一条路。）

(But now...)（那么现在呢……）

(I am not blind to the fact that I possess little power by myself. I have Kalina's help and the help of my friends at the moment... But I need more power to gain the chips that would earn us a seat at the table.)（我清楚地知道，仅凭我一人的力量太过微小，格琳娜的帮助、同伴们的帮助……还需要更多力量才能获得上牌桌的筹码。）

(Sier's proposal and Lenna's words have helped me form an idea of where to set up our temporary base.)（希尔的提议和莱娜的话，让我生出了构建临时据点的想法。）

(A place to put Blusphere at for further experimentation, to serve as my safehouse if the need ever arises. A location to store resources for the Elmo.)（一个能暂时安放蓝雪球进行进一步实验的地方，必要时刻也能成为我的安全屋，为整个艾莫号提供后备资源。）

GrozaCommander, Mangi Security has engaged in combat with the Varjagers. Should we stop advancing to avoid detection?指挥官，曼尼安保已经和瓦良格帮开始交战，为了避免被发现，我们是否暂停行进。

CommanderWe have the same goal as Mangi Security at the moment, and that is to find the whereabouts of the missing vaccines.曼尼安保现在的目标应该和我们一样，是调查那些消失疫苗的下落。

CommanderNo need to antagonize them right now.没必要现在和他们起冲突。

DandelionThe enemy of my enemy... cannot be counted on as a friend, but may serve as a source of intelligence.敌人的敌人……虽称不上朋友，不过却是送上门来的情报来源。

CommanderTap into Mangi Security's comms channels. You are capable of that, right, Dandelion?切入曼尼安保的通讯频道，你能做到吧，丹德莱。

DandelionOf course.当然。

DandelionLooks like the Varjagers' reinforcements came in time. Mangi Security is at a disadvantage this time.看起来瓦良格帮的援军来得很及时，曼尼安保反倒是落入下风了呢。

Mangi Security LeaderThose crazies are relentless, sir. They're constantly being replenished with reinforcements.朗尼长官，这群疯子也太拼了，他们的援军还在陆续赶过来。

Mangi Security LeaderShould we call for backup as well?咱们要不也叫点援军？

LonnieTheir desperation is proof that we are on the right track.敌人狗急跳墙证明我们找对了方向。

LonnieDon't you dare call for backup. I know that you're gonna try calling Omen for help. Things go to hell whenever that woman is around.叫什么援助，别以为我不知道你又想叫“噩兆”。那女人只要出现，准没好事。

Mangi Security LeaderUh, this isn't the first time they've been called for backup.这、他们负责支援也不止一次了。

Mangi Security LeaderYou've told us before to leave the dirty work to Omen and focus on maximizing our profits.您之前不是说，脏活丢给那群“噩兆”就行，咱们只需做利益最大化的事情。

Mangi Security LeaderWe're not here for the Varjagers. Our goal is to investigate their base, find the stolen raw materials, and uncover the faction behind the robberies.这群瓦良格帮不是重点，调查他们的根据点，找到那些被夺走的疫苗原材料以及他们背后的势力才是我们的首要任务。

LonnieHmph. Pretty sharp, aren't you?哼，还算聪明。

LonnieOur first priority is to retrieve the vaccines for the Conglomerate, and as long as we accomplish that, they'll view us as great performers. No need to let Omen take any of that credit.取回疫苗是财团那边优先级最高的任务，只要能完成，等着我们的定然是上等的功绩。没必要让“噩兆”小队蹭上功劳。

Mangi Security LeaderSquad 2 has lost half their numbers. They won't last much longer.第二部队已经折损了一半。他们支撑不了太久。

LonnieLet them fight to the end. Our main force must prioritize investigating the Varjagers' base.让他们死守，主力部队优先追查瓦良格帮的老巢。

LonnieThey'll call for help themselves once they can't hold on any longer. We don't have to be so eager to do it for them.等他们撑不住了自然会求援，没必要我们赶着去求人。

Mangi Security LeaderYes sir!是！

Mangi Squad 2 MemberLeader, is our backup not here yet?队长，支援还没有来吗？！

Mangi Squad 2 MemberThe main force told us that they're going to thrash the Varjagers' base. We won't last long on our own.主力部队说是去直捣瓦良格帮的老巢了，但仅凭我们撑不了多久啊。

Mangi Squad 2 LeaderDamn Lonnie. He snipes every decent task that comes up.朗尼那家伙，好事全被他的部队包了。

Mangi Squad 2 LeaderCall Omen for backup. We wouldn't be in this situation if they had cleaned up the Yellow Zone like they were supposed to.求援，去找“噩兆”。要不是他们没提前清理好黄区的麻烦，我们怎么会被敌人包围？

KennyThey're saying that they can't hold on much longer. If this goes on, Squad 2 might get completely wiped out.他们说是已经撑不住了，再这样下去很可能整支小队全军覆没。

LentineOh. That's too bad. That squad was following Lonnie on a mission if my memory serves me right.可惜了，我记得那支小队是跟着朗尼出任务的吧。

LentineThey've been following Lonnie for so long, but they didn't rise up the ranks with him. Now, they're facing complete annihilation.跟了朗尼那么久，没跟着上位，反倒是落得个全军覆没的结局。

KennyI'm quite shocked too.我也很惊讶。

KennyLonnie is usually tasked to do things like protecting White Zone top brass. These tasks are considered to be some of the most coveted within Mangi Security.朗尼负责的向来都是些保卫白区高层的工作，在曼尼安保里称得上是最优待遇了。

KennyI've heard rumors about him being related to some of the top brass in the Conglomerate, which is why he takes on such jobs most of the time...听说对方和财团的高层有亲属关系，所以，接的也大都是高层护卫这种核心工作……

LentineI wouldn't have guessed that you were so well-connected and informed.看不出，你消息这么灵通。

KennyJust rumors I gathered from private conversations. I'm completely loyal to you, Adjutant!都是私下里的传言罢了，副官，我对你绝对忠诚！

KennyWhen Griffin underwent restructuring, you brought us brothers-in-arms to our next home. If we didn't have your help, we probably wouldn't even get the right to live in a Green Zone, much less enjoy luxurious things such as medical insurance.当年格里芬解散，要不是您带着我们这些兄弟找到下家，光凭我们，恐怕连在绿区生活的资格都难以获得，更别说拥有伤病补助了。

LentinePast glories are not worth talking about.过去的光辉有什么值得谈的。

KennyIf Griffin didn't get restructured back then, you'd probably be counted among the best of the new batch.要是当年的格里芬没解散，以副官你的情况，应该能算那一批最出名的新人吧。

KennyWith your achievements at Frankfurt, you would've gotten into core management with just a few more years of work.有法兰克福的功绩，你多干几年，一定能走到核心层。

LentineNah, no way. If you want to talk about who REALLY deserved to rise through the ranks back then... Hmph...算了吧，当年格里芬最该往上走的人……哼……

(Lentine's face darkens upon mentioning the past. An image of that man's silhouette surfaces in her mind.)（提及过往，兰汀眸色深沉，脑海中浮现出那个男人的背影。）

KennyBut I'll choose our work at Mangi Security a million times over sleeping in the winds of the Yellow Zones.但曼尼安保的日子已经比外面好过多了。

KennyThere's a wonderful pension waiting for us even if we have to retire from injury or sickness. It's enough for a comfortable retirement as long as we don't overspend.要是伤病退役还能有笔不菲的退休金，只要不乱花，够我们好好安度晚年了。

LentineYou certainly have quite the positive mindset. But it's too early for us to think about a peaceful retirement.你倒是想得很开。不过，现在想安度晚年还太早了。

LentineTell Squad 2 to execute a fighting retreat. We don't want them to be corpses by the time we arrive. Omen's reputation would get even worse if that happens.让第二小队边迎击边撤退，别等我们赶过去已经全军覆没，到时候“噩兆”的名号恐怕会传得更响。

LentineCheck Lonnie's coordinates. If Lonnie is willing to pick up this assignment, it must be linked to the top brass of the Conglomerate.调查一下朗尼小队的坐标，朗尼肯接的活，一定和财团高层脱离不了干系。

KennyYes, ma'am!是！

(The first thing Lenna notices upon seeing Isa is her somewhat unsteady gait. A heavy cloak covers the entire length of her body.)（莱娜看到伊莎时，第一眼就注意到了对方略带蹒跚的步伐。厚重的斗篷几乎遮住了对方的整个身躯。）

(It is difficult to imagine this hunched, withered lady as the retired soldier described in Pavel's files.)（很难想象眼前这个佝偻着身躯，满脸憔悴的女士，是巴维尔所给的资料中的退役士兵。）

LennaAre you okay? I'll help you.你还好吗？我扶着你。

IsaDon't touch me!别碰我！

(Lenna reaches out to assist the woman, only to be rudely swatted away. To Lenna, Isa's body felt unnervingly rock-like. She silently suppresses the suspicion welling up in her heart, maintaining her enthusiasm by her side. Isa, realizing that her reaction was too extreme, finally gives Lenna an apologetic smile.)（莱娜想要搀扶眼前的女人，却被对方猛地甩开。指尖的触感格外坚硬，莱娜沉默着压下心底的狐疑，仍然热情地站在女人的身边。似乎察觉到自身的反应过大，伊莎反应过来向莱娜露出一个讨好的微笑。）

IsaI apologize. I'm not used to people coming so close to me.抱歉，我不习惯别人靠我太近。

IsaPavel told me that you're a leadership figure from the Green Zone, here to investigate vaccine effectiveness.我听巴维尔说，你们是绿区的领导，现在在调查疫苗的有效性。

IsaI get the right to take vaccines if I cooperate in this investigation, right?只要我好好配合调查，就能拿到疫苗注射资格？

LennaYour condition seems severe. Are you really going to settle for treatment here?您的情况看起来非常严重，真的要在这里接受治疗吗？

LennaI can arrange for you to be treated in an official Green Zone hospital.我可以安排您去绿区正规医院接受治疗。

IsaNo need. I'm not among those who can afford treatment in the Green Zone.不用了，绿区的医疗价格，不是我这种人能负担得起的。

IsaI might be able to scrape by if I had money, but if I took on debt... I might not even be able to afford food.有钱尚能苟延残喘，负了债……恐怕我连食物都无法支付。

IsaI just want to confirm something! Is it true that I'll get the right to take vaccines if I help you?!我只想确认，疫苗注射资格这件事，是真的吗？！

LennaWe can arrange for you to take an official vaccine if you wish to, yes.您如果想要接种正规疫苗，我们可以安排。

IsaThat is wonderful. I have a daughter who is studying in the Green Zone.是真的就好。我有个女儿，在绿区读书。

IsaLet me be honest with you: I've long known that my days are numbered. My only wish is to save enough money to ensure a good life in the Green Zone for my daughter.不瞒你说，我早就知道自己时日无多了，唯一的希望是攒下足够多的钱能够确保女儿在绿区好好生活。

IsaPavel promised that he would take care of her after my death, which is why I was willing to tell him everything.巴维尔答应过我，在我死后，替我照看我的女儿，我才愿意把这些事告诉他。

IsaI will cooperate with your investigation if your organization provides my daughter with regular vaccinations.我可以配合你们的调查，只要你们能确保我的女儿能定期注射上疫苗就好。

LennaBut... Don't you want to be cured, so that you can be with your daughter for the rest of your life?可……您不想好好治疗，一直陪在女儿身边吗？

LennaAs for the cost, there might be a way to solve that problem.费用的事，也许能想办法解决。

IsaI'm beyond saving. I'll only drag her down if I get close to my child.我早就没救了，靠近那孩子只会拖累她。

IsaI was able to survive this long thanks to Dr. Orphia's generosity. I am content to just do a little more for that child... before I go.能活到今天全靠奥尔菲娅医生的施舍，能在走之前，稍微为那孩子多做些……已经知足了。

IsaDr. Orphia is a good person. The vaccines she provides are definitely effective. She only limits the number of patients out of fear of us not being able to afford it without such limitations.奥尔菲娅医生是个好人，她提供的疫苗绝对有效果，是因为我们这些人实在支付不了太高的价格才限定了治疗人数。

IsaI... hope that she'll be blessed one day.我……希望她能得到庇佑。

LennaAccording to our investigations, the active ingredients in the vaccines here definitely aren't losing to their official vaccine counterparts. Do you know where these vaccines come from?根据我们的调查，这里提供的疫苗有效成分不亚于正规疫苗，您知道疫苗的来源吗？

IsaThey're probably made with medical knowledge and skill passed down to Dr. Orphia. Her parents started treating Yellow Zone patients many decades ago, so it can be said that they possess a wealth of accumulated knowledge and expertise through practice.应该是家传医术吧，奥尔菲娅医生的父母很早之前就在黄区治疗患者了，算是有很多年的家学。

IsaI heard that her parents' patients pooled together their money to rebuild the hospital after the fire.当年大火发生之后，听说是黄区受她父母恩惠的病患们凑钱重建了医院。

IsaI don't know much more... I only knew about this place because of a trusted friend.再多的事情我就不清楚了……我能知道这里也是依靠信任的朋友推荐。

IsaTo prevent a repeat of the tragedy that claimed her parents' lives, Dr. Orphia rigorously screens any new patients.为了避免当年的悲剧重演，奥尔菲娅医生会严格筛选治疗对象。

(Lenna and Isa reach the hospital's interior mid-conversation.)（谈话间，两人已然走进了医院。）

ElindaYou have finally arrived. There are always patients who come to elder sister for help only when their illness has reached a critical stage.总算来了，总有病人会在病入膏肓之前才找姐姐求助。

ElindaI hope that you are not that kind of client.希望你不是这样的客人。

ElindaRemove your hood.兜帽，摘下来。

Isa...……

ElindaThose with severe E.L.I.D. may lose their mind at any moment and harm my sister. I won't let that happen.重度E.L.I.D.感染者随时有可能失去理智伤害到姐姐，我不可能坐视不管。

ElindaTake it off! Your symptoms weren't this severe the last time we saw you. If you had taken your vaccines on schedule, you wouldn't need to cover yourself with a cloak.摘下来！上次你来的时候，还没有这么严重。如果你按时使用疫苗，不可能需要斗篷遮掩。

IsaI'm just here to buy vaccines. I won't stay long.我只是来买疫苗的，很快就走。

IsaI won't be near Dr. Orphia for very long...不会靠近奥尔菲娅医生太久……

ElindaThere's only one reason why you have such a cloak on. Collapse crystals have already appeared on your body!用斗篷做遮掩只有一种可能，你的身体已经出现坍塌晶体！

LennaElinda, if you are worried about her radiation harming Dr. Orphia, why don't I see the doctor on her behalf?诶，艾琳达，如果你担心她会危害到奥尔菲娅医生的健康，我去见奥尔菲娅医生怎么样？

LennaThere's no need for Dr. Orphia to see her face to face if we're just getting medicine, right?只是开药的话，不需要当面见到吧。

ElindaHah?! Not going to happen!哈——不可能！

ElindaNo hiding if you want to be treated. Targeted treatment is only possible with a full understanding of a patient's condition.想治病就别藏着掖着，了解病情才能对症下药。

(Elinda reaches out in an attempt to remove Isa's cloak. Lenna moves in to grab Elinda's wrist. As for Isa, she moves away quickly, wrapping her cloak around her body even more tightly.)（艾琳达伸手想要揭开伊莎的斗篷，莱娜上前握住了艾琳达的手腕。匆忙后退的伊莎将身上的斗篷裹得更紧了。）

ElindaLet go of me!放开！

???Elinda... Don't be so rough with our clients.艾琳达……别对客人那么粗鲁。

ElindaTsk.啧。

???Good afternoon, Lady Isa. Please forgive Elinda's rudeness. She's just worried for my safety.下午好，伊莎女士。请原谅艾琳达的无理，她只是担心我的安危。

IsaI'm the one who should be apologizing. I'm sorry, Dr. Orphia. I wish to purchase some vaccines.是我该道歉。抱歉，奥尔菲娅医生，我想购买一些疫苗。

OrphiaOf course. And the person next to you would be...?当然可以，您旁边这位是……

IsaA companion. I'm not very mobile at the moment with my condition. Is it alright if I get her to pick up my vaccines in the future?我的同伴。我现在的状态，不方便行动，以后可以委托她来帮我领取疫苗吗？

OrphiaOur hospital will only allow the patient themselves to pick up their own medicine to prevent any fraudulent claiming.为了避免冒领，我们医院只能患者本人领取药剂。

OrphiaLet's go to my consultation room. Take good care of our guests, Elinda.去我的诊疗室吧，艾琳达照顾好客人。

ElindaSister! I'm fine with her, but there's...姐姐！她就算了，还有一个……

OrphiaRemember to brew some tea for our two guests.记得泡茶招待两位客人。

ElindaFine...是——

(A consultation room within Orphi Hospital in the Yellow Zone, clear weather.)（黄区，奥尔菲医院诊疗室，晴。）

OrphiaJudging by your current condition, you haven't taken any vaccines for at least three months, Isa.以你现在的情况推测，你至少有三个月没有定期注射疫苗了，伊莎。

OrphiaAre you planning to save them for your daughter?疫苗，是打算留着给你的女儿用吗？

IsaI...我……

OrphiaI know that vaccine prices have risen substantially in the Green Zones. Many patients have saved up their vaccines just like you did.我知道最近绿区的疫苗价格上涨了不少，和你一样省下疫苗的病人不在少数。

OrphiaMany have also asked me to prescribe more vaccines for them. They are either giving them to family or selling them for cash.想要求我多开疫苗的病人也有很多。理由无外乎是想用疫苗换点钱生活，或者是给家人使用。

OrphiaI can only prescribe vaccines for patients on our list, okay?我只给特定的客人本人开疫苗哦。

OrphiaLady Isa, your daughter is not a listed patient. If you do want to receive our vaccines for the long term, however... you must do your best to live on, okay?伊莎小姐的女儿不在我的客人范畴之内，想要长期获得疫苗的话……得好好活下去啊，伊莎女士。

OrphiaI remember you mentioning that her name is Lily.... You want to live long enough to see what Lily looks like when she's all grown up, don't you?我还记得你说过她叫莉莉……你想活着看到她长大后的样子，不是吗？

IsaI do.是。

IsaLily's doing well at school. If she's able to enter a big company once she graduates, she'll probably be able to avoid treading on my path.莉莉的学习成绩不错，等到毕业后，如果能去一家大企业任职，说不定就不会走上我的老路了。

OrphiaIf that's the case, could you please at least push yourself to live till she graduates?那么，至少努力活到她毕业好吗？

(Orphia's hand moves towards Isa, who hesitates before exposing her arm to the audience.)（奥尔菲娅向伊莎伸出了手，对方犹豫片刻，将斗篷下的手臂暴露在了众人面前。）

(Collapse crystals have long emerged from her skin. Elinda walks to Orphia's side upon seeing it, alarmed.)（坍塌晶体早已从皮肤上蔓延而出，艾琳达看到的瞬间便走到了奥尔菲娅的身边，提高了警惕。）

OrphiaMaintaining your sanity through such symptoms... You have been diligently adhering to the treatment regimen I prescribed, Lady Isa.能在这种状态下依然保持理智，伊莎女士，你有好好按照我叮嘱的治疗方式做。

Lenna(ELIDs?! I've only seen something this bad on fully-turned ELIDs, but Lady Isa seems to have a grip on her sanity.)（生骸？！这种严重的状况，我几乎只在生骸身上见过。但伊莎女士似乎，还有清醒的理智。）

OrphiaBut... your condition has worsened. If you had taken the provided vaccines on a regular basis, you could have been able to hold on for at least half a year more.但……现在情况有些糟糕了，如果你有定期使用我提供的疫苗，至少能够再拖延半年。

OrphiaVaccines can delay the speed at which E.L.I.D. progresses, but they cannot completely reverse it at the moment.疫苗能够减缓感染E.L.I.D.的进度，但目前还无法实现完全逆转病情。

OrphiaIn your current state, you have at most... one month left. Your mind will soon be completely engulfed by E.L.I.D.现在的情况，最多……一个月。你的意识会被彻底吞噬。

IsaThat won't happen, doctor.不会的。医生。

IsaI can survive much longer than that. Please prescribe me enough vaccines to last me three more months.我还能活很久，请给我再开三个月的疫苗。

OrphiaIsa, I've seen enough patients to know... that one month is already a generous estimate for people in your state.伊莎，我接手的病患足够多……你的情况，一个月都是我推测的最好情况了。

IsaWe humans can defend our minds against Collapse radiation with a strong enough will.只要人类的意志足够强大，就能抵御坍塌辐射的影响。

IsaYou've said it before, doctor. Collapse radiation may break our body, but it can never destroy our will.你说过的，医生，坍塌辐射能够摧毁我们的身躯，但摧毁不了我们的意志。

IsaAs long as our will is strong enough, we can overcome anything.足够强大的意志，足以战胜一切。

OrphiaCases like that are extreme exceptions. Your ability to last this long already lists you among the rare cases.那是极为罕见的情况。你能坚持那么久，已经是稀有的案例。

IsaNo, it's not just me. Rockefeller too.不，不只是我，还有洛克菲。

IsaHis condition is far worse, but he's still alive... because he has God's protection.他的情况比我糟糕多了，但至今还活着，因为……有神明的庇佑。

IsaDedicate everything to Immore; if one receives His mercy, all symptoms will be cured completely.将一切献给伊默尔，若能获得祂的垂怜，便能彻底治愈所有的病症。

OrphiaParadeus... I know that many patients chose to join them in hopes of salvation, but only a handful survive.帕拉蒂斯……我知道有很多病患选择加入他们作为救赎，但能活下来的屈指可数。

OrphiaThere is no guarantee that you'll be among the lucky ones.无法保证，你也能成为那些幸运儿。

IsaI will!我一定可以！

IsaDo you know, doctor? I've seen Rockefeller. He was almost dead, but after he was saved, he showed me his body in a call and he had no more symptoms.医生，你知道吗。我见过洛克菲了。他原本几乎快要死亡，但他后来和我通讯的时候，给我展示了他的全身，已经没有任何症状了。

IsaThey do have a way to help us. It's just that this power is extraordinarily rare, which is why only a few deserve to have this blessing.一定有办法能救我们的，只是这股力量过于稀有，只有少部分人才配拥有。

IsaDoctor, you've seen more infected people than me. You must know more about it, right?医生，你接触过的病患比我更多，你一定知道得更多对吗？

IsaYou know who Rockefeller is! Did he see you after he was saved? Is he completely healthy now?洛克菲你也认识，他后来找过你吗？是不是已经完全康复了？

IsaI can survive! I'm definitely capable of surviving! Prescribe the vaccine! I can live so long, oh so much longer!我可以活下去，绝对可以活下去的！把疫苗开给我，我能活很久很久！

IsaRockefeller has agreed to invite me, I... I'll definitely receive God's mercy!洛克菲已经答应邀请我，我……一定能够得到神明的垂怜！

(Isa's eyes fill with crazed fervor. The Collapse crystals on her grow by several inches all of a sudden, her hunched body emitting eerie noises from the crystals pushing into each other.)（伊莎眼里满是狂热，身上的坍塌晶体在瞬间又变大了几寸，佝偻的身躯发出诡异的晶体碰撞声。）

(As her voice grows louder, her utterings become increasingly slurred. Isa staggers towards Orphia.)（随着音量提高，她口中的话语已经变得含糊不清，蹒跚着步伐向奥尔菲娅扑去。）

(Elinda stands in front of Orphia, shielding her with her body as she pulls the trigger, firing at Isa without hesitation.)（艾琳达扣动了扳机，将奥尔菲娅护在身后，毫不犹豫地开枪向伊莎射击。）

(Lenna lunges at Isa, forcing her to the ground. The bullet whizzes past the two, leaving a hole some distance away.)（莱娜冲向伊莎，从背后将伊莎押在了地上，子弹从两人的身躯旁擦过，在不远处留下弹孔。）

IsaI'm special! God will save me! I will be saved!我是特殊的！神明会救我的，一定会救我的！

ElindaSister! She's beyond saving!姐姐，她已经没救了！

OrphiaElinda, prepare for surgery. We're going to perform emergency treatment.艾琳达，去准备手术，做应急治疗。

OrphiaGood work! Please continue to hold Isa down. I'll try to rouse her sanity from the depths.干得好，麻烦你继续控制住伊莎，我会尝试唤回她的理智。

ElindaSister!姐姐！

(An unknown yet gentle piece of music has started playing in the consultation room at some point. Orphia crouches gently, staring at Isa who still thrashes around under Lenna's hold.)（轻柔的音乐不知从何时在诊疗室中响起，奥尔菲娅轻轻蹲下，看着被莱娜控制住不断挣扎的伊莎。）

(Eyes vacant, Isa still mutters something under her breath. Rough gasps are emitted from her parched throat as she attempts to break free.)（她的嘴中还在喃喃低语，干涸的喉咙深处传来粗糙的喘息，双眼无神地尝试挣脱束缚。）

OrphiaIsa, think about those who are important to you. Do you remember your daughter Lily?伊莎，想想你最重要的人。你还记得，莉莉那孩子吗？

IsaLily, Lily... Yes. I have to live. Live.莉莉、莉莉……对，我得活着，活下去。

(The operating room lights turn on. Elinda pushes Isa into the operating room, said patient bound by straps restraining her entire body.)（医院的手术室亮起手术中的灯光，艾琳达推着被束缚带约束全身的伊莎进入了手术室。）

(Lenna finds a safe location to make a call.)（莱娜找了处安全的地方，拨通了通讯。）

LennaWe might be able to get the location of the Paradeus base from Isa if the doctor manages to save her.如果伊莎能够被医生成功救下，也许我们能从她口中问出帕拉蒂斯据点的下落。

LennaA god that cures radiation sickness? It's a lie, no matter how you look at it.能够治疗辐射病的神明，怎么看都是一个谎言。

CommanderDoes Paradeus concoct schemes like these in an effort to make a comeback?帕拉蒂斯就是用这种诡计死灰复燃吗。

LevaThere are many who cannot afford vaccines in the Yellow Zones.黄区有许多无法承担疫苗价格的病人。

LevaNow that vaccine prices have risen so quickly, more and more people in the Yellow Zones will be infected with E.L.I.D. if the prices don't go down soon enough.再加之如今的疫苗价格快速上涨，倘若长期无法将价格压制下来，未来黄区将会有越来越多的人类感染 E.L.I.D.。

LennaAnd if those beyond saving choose to seek Paradeus for help... we'll never be able to eradicate Paradeus.而那些没救的患者如果选择求助帕拉蒂斯……这样下去根本没办法彻底解决帕拉蒂斯。

CommanderThose who sought help from Paradeus probably never even realized, even in death, that they were mere tools for their experimentation.那些向帕拉蒂斯求助的感染者，恐怕到死都不知道，自己不过是他们实验用的工具。

LevaTaking out one Paradeus base will change nothing, I'm afraid.仅靠铲除帕拉蒂斯一个据点，恐怕毫无用处。

CommanderWe'll have to burn them from the root. Destroy their lies. That... might be the only way that we can end the incessant growth of the Paradeus faction.只有从根源上摧毁他们的谎言，才可能……断绝不断蔓延的帕拉蒂斯势力。

LennaWe just have to prove that Paradeus is lying about saving people, right?! No one will ever believe in Paradeus again by then!只要证明帕拉蒂斯所谓的拯救都是骗人的就好了吧！这样大家也能不再信奉帕拉蒂斯？

(I recall the existence of fully-immune individuals.)（我的脑海中瞬间出现了完全免疫体的存在。）

(Radiation sickness might not be incurable, but fully-immune individuals must never be sacrificed in a bid to find a solution.)（辐射病也许并非无药可医，但绝对不能，以牺牲完全免疫体作为代价。）

(In the Green Zones, medical conglomerates extort wealth from normal people via their expensive vaccines.)（医药财团们依靠昂贵的疫苗收取普通人的财富。）

(Outside the Green Zones, countless sufferers who cannot afford treatment willingly become followers of Paradeus in pursuit of the tiniest chance at survival.)（而在绿区之外，为了谋求一点生存可能性，无数无法支付治疗医药费的病患为了一点生存可能，自愿成为帕拉蒂斯的信徒。）

LevaThe problematic vaccines we discovered previously... might well be connected to the recent rise in vaccine prices.之前被发现的问题疫苗，和如今上涨的疫苗价格背后……恐怕有些关联。

CommanderWe must find what this connection is, no matter what.无论如何，这条线必须查清楚。

The Snipe and the Clam 鹬蚌相争

OrphiaIsa has regained consciousness, but she still needs rest. Please escort her back.伊莎已经恢复了意识，不过还需要静养。麻烦你送她回去了。

LennaOkay!好的！

IsaNo need for that. It's just a little injury. And thank you, doctor.这点伤，不要紧。谢谢你，医生。

ElindaHaaaah? Don't you get it? Sister just risked getting infected by all that Collapse radiation in your body to pull you out from the gates of hell!哈——能不能明白刚刚姐姐可是冒着被坍塌辐射感染的风险，从鬼门关里面把你救了回来诶！

ElindaYou should treasure this life of yours a little.稍微珍惜点这条命吧。

ElindaWho else in whose hospital would save you other than my elder sister? Are you hoping for Paradeus to do that?除了姐姐，哪里还会有人救你啊，难道指望帕拉蒂斯吗？

OrphiaI surgically removed some of the diseased tissue from your body, but... it's only a temporary measure.我切除了你身上部分病变组织，但……只是缓兵之计。

IsaI'm happy enough to live one more day.我这条命，能多活一天，都是幸运。

IsaI still want to try it, doctor. What if it really works?医生，我还是想去试一试。万一，能够成功呢？

OrphiaParadeus should be opening hospitals in the Yellow Zones if they really do have the ability to save everyone.如果每个人都能成功被治疗，那么帕拉蒂斯应该在黄区开医院。

OrphiaEvery advancement in medicine involves countless test subjects. Even if you saw Rockefeller get cured, the others might...任何医疗手段的进步，都会有数不清的实验品。你看到了洛克菲被成功治疗，也许其他人……

IsaI'm willing to be a test subject!我可以当实验品！

IsaI'll go be a test subject. If it works, I'll give you the data!我去当实验品，如果成功，就把数据给你！

IsaDoctor, please give me a few more vaccines. I might just get through this trial with the help of your vaccines.医生，求你再给我几支疫苗吧，说不定，有疫苗我就能扛过去。

IsaI must grasp at every chance to survive, even if it only helps me live a little longer.对我而言，哪怕是有希望能多活一点时间，我都要牢牢抓住。

Orphia...Okay.……好。

ElindaBig Sis!姐姐！

OrphiaBut I have a condition. You must bring me with you.不过，我也有条件，你带我一起去。

IsaNo... I would never ask you to go to that kind of place, doctor.不，怎么能让医生你去那种地方。

OrphiaI'm a doctor. I'm way better at grasping whether or not their treatment methods work.我是医生，她们的治疗手段有用还是没用我更为清楚。

OrphiaMoreover, it's quite difficult to leave that place once you go in.况且，那个地方，进去之后，不可能轻易出来。

OrphiaIsa, how were you planning to send me the data?伊莎，你怎么给我传递实验情报呢？

IsaI...我……

OrphiaBesides, I can treat you at any time if I'm around.有我在你的身边，可以为你医疗。

ElindaHey, you... What the hell have you been telling my sister—你这家伙，都在和姐姐说什么呀——

ElindaI'll never let you go to such a dangerous place, Sis!那种危险的地方，我绝对不会让姐姐你去的！

ElindaEven if it's for research!就算是为了研究也不可以！

ElindaIf someone has to go with her, I'll go on your behalf.宁愿我去，也不能姐姐去。

LennaI'll accompany Isa. If something really happens, I'll take on the responsibility of bringing Isa back.我陪伊莎去，如果真有什么意外，我负责把伊莎带出来。

LennaA smaller group is more mobile.人数越少，行动越方便。

LennaLeave the responsibility of hauling Lady Isa out to me!扛起伊莎女士撤退的职责就交给我吧！

ElindaAre you capable enough by yourself?凭你一个？

LennaHey, I did execute a perfect evade to avoid your bullet and protect Isa at the same time, didn't I?刚才我可是完美躲开了艾琳达射出的子弹，也保护好伊莎了哦？

ElindaHmph. Do whatever you want. Just don't drag my elder sister down.哼，随你们，别拖累姐姐就好。

(Daytime, aboard the Elmo in the Yellow Zone, clear weather.)（黄区，白天，艾莫号，天气晴。）

(The ops room within the Elmo.)（艾莫号的指挥室内。）

LevaBreaking into a Paradeus base by yourself?一个人就敢单枪匹马闯入帕拉蒂斯的老巢？

LevaPretty brave♪~胆量不错♪~

LennaLeva~ I had a look at the gathering place. It's just an empty, desolate spot in the Yellow Zone. It doesn't look like it could hide a whole base, no matter how I look at it.莱娅姐~我看了集合场地，那里是黄区一处空旷无人区，怎么看都不像是有据点的样子。

LevaFor the sake of safety, you should still prepare for the worst.安全起见，仍然要做好最坏打算。

LennaCome on, Leva, this is an infiltration mission. I just want to see for myself whether or not this legendary "God" really can help them.莱娅姐，这是潜伏任务啦。我只想亲眼确认一下，传说中的神明的救助是否真的有效。

LennaI'll get out as soon as I finish gathering intel. They'll never notice!等我收集完情报，就立刻撤离。保证神不知鬼不觉。

LevaIt might be easy to get in, but slipping out won't be as easy as you think.进去容易，出来可没你想得那么简单。

LevaWhy are you being so reckless this time?为什么这次那么莽撞？

LennaYou've all... been working really hard. I want to do something for the Commander too, just like the rest of 404.404的大家……都那么努力，我也想帮上指挥官的忙。

LennaAnyway, it's not like I'm going in alone. I have you, the Commander, and everyone from 404 backing me up.而且，我可不是一个人潜入，莱娅姐、指挥官、404的大家，都在我的身后。

CommanderOnce Lenna confirms the coordinates of the new Paradeus base, I'll arrange for Klukai and the others to back Lenna up.等莱娜确认帕拉蒂斯的据点位置后，我会安排可露凯她们前去支援莱娜。

LevaIf Klukai and the others are at the Commander's current coordinates, they'll take some time to reach Lenna.以指挥官目前的坐标点，可露凯她们赶到莱娜身边，需要一些时间。

LevaVector's 404 Team B is closer to Lenna's location.维克托负责的404二队离莱娜更近一些。

LennaBut Leva, I recall that they're swamped with work.但我记得她们手里还有很多工作。

LevaIf it's a commission from the Commander, we set it to the highest priority possible.如果是指挥官的委托，优先级会是404的最高级别。

CommanderSorry for the trouble. I'll arrange for Klukai and the others to rush over by air at the earliest possible timing.麻烦了，我会安排可露凯她们尽快乘坐飞机赶去支援。

CommanderLenna, remember to conceal and protect yourself, and avoid revealing yourself too early.莱娜，注意保护好自己，不要过早暴露。

LennaDon't worry~ Dr. Orphia says that she can help me disguise myself to be more humanlike. Leave the infiltration and investigation work to me!放心~奥尔菲娅医生说是可以帮我伪装得更像人类。潜入调查工作，就包在我身上吧！

MelanieCommander, you look troubled. I've been staying put—I haven't been wandering around.指挥官，很忧愁的样子，我有好好待着，没有乱跑。

KrolikMelanie should be able to move around freely now that Blusphere is in the cryopreservation chamber.蓝雪球已经被安置好了，现在梅兰妮应该能自由活动了吧。

NemesisThe still pulse, a devout heart, outlined...沉寂之脉，虔诚勾勒之心……

KrolikHey, what are you even talking about? I'm not good at taking care of kids at all. Even if it's the Commander's k—喂，说什么呢。我一点都不擅长照顾小孩，就算是指挥官的——

Melanie?？

KrolikNo, it's nothing to do with you, Melanie.没什么，和梅兰妮没关系。

KrolikWhat are you all looking at me for?! We have a mission going on!都看着我干什么？！任务、任务！

KrolikYou take care of Melanie, I have a mission to do!你照顾梅兰妮，我去执行任务！

MelanieI will stay put. I won't make trouble for the Commander.我会乖乖待着，不会给指挥官添麻烦的。

GrozaCommander, we have already found the Varjagers' base through the comms coordinates that Dandelion decoded.指挥官，根据丹德莱拆解的通讯坐标，我们已经发现瓦良格帮的据点了。

CommanderTake a detour and get on a vehicle. Stay away from Mangi Security and find the stolen vaccines at the base.绕路换车，避开曼尼安保，去那里找被抢走的疫苗。

GrozaUnderstood.是。

(Varjager base in the Yellow Zone, clear weather.)（黄区，瓦良格帮某基地，晴。）

Varjager LeaderHow many times do I gotta tell you?! Hold them back! Hold!说了多少次！撑住、撑住！

VarjagerThose Mangi Security bastards are practically beelining for our base!那群曼尼安保根本就是直接冲着我们基地来的！

VarjagerWe're doomed. They must be here for the vaccines.完蛋了，他们一定是为了疫苗来的。

Varjager LeaderOur base wouldn't have been exposed if you idiots hadn't started instinctively running towards it at the first sign of danger!要不是你们这群蠢货，下意识就往基地里面逃，我们的基地怎么会暴露！

Varjager LeaderGet those vaccines and raw materials moved ASAP. Don't let Mangi Security grab them.尽快转移疫苗和原材料，别被那群曼尼安保抓到把柄。

VarjagerYou heard him! Move it!快点转移疫苗！

(A Varjager flings the heavy-duty truck's door open and drives it towards the vaccines awaiting transfer.)（瓦良格帮成员拉开车门，驾驶重型货车接收待转移的疫苗。）

(The door to the storage space opens. He instinctively looks behind and catches some kind of clothing fluttering. A sharp sound of bones breaking is heard before he completely loses consciousness. )（仓储空间被打开，他下意识往后看了眼，眼神捕捉到了一片飘动的衣角。伴随一声清脆的骨头断裂声，便彻底失去了意识。）

ColphneI've checked. The stolen vaccines are in the back~人家确认过了，放在后备厢里面的是疫苗~

ColphneWith how much they have, we wouldn't be able to take it all away even if we had a few more vehicles.以目前他们在搬运的量，几车都装不下。

GrozaTake one batch and retreat.优先带走一批撤离。

NemesisThe scent of revenge...复仇的气息……

(Boom—)（轰——）

(Krolik spins the steering wheel, masterfully swerving away from the shell fired at them at the very last second.)（克罗丽科猛打方向盘，一个极限闪避躲开袭向车辆的炮弹。）

(Both Mangi Security and the Varjagers' convoys are under concentrated fire.)（曼尼安保的车队、瓦良格帮派的车队都遭受了集火攻击。）

VepleyA perfect evade~ We managed to dodge the enemy's super flashy entrance!完美的闪避~躲过敌人的超炫出场。

GrozaIs that... Blusphere?那个身影……是蓝雪球？！

ColphneLooks different from the one we have on the Elmo. There are no signs of injury on her frame at all.和艾莫号上的不一样，完全没有受伤的痕迹。

Mangi Security LeaderSir! The enemy is too strong!朗尼长官！敌人太强了！

Lonnie...Keep moving the vaccines.……继续搬。

Mangi Security LeaderShe's targeting our vehicles and cargo!对方的目标是车辆还有货物！

LonnieA third-gen Doll... Why is she here?三代人形……怎么会在这儿。

LonnieTry to contact that Doll.尝试和对方建立联系。

Mangi Security LeaderIt's not working. The call's not going through.不行，联络不上。

LonnieWhy would a third-gen Doll attack Mangi Security?三代人形为什么会攻击我们曼尼安保？

LonnieI've seen that third-gen Doll before. Connect my comms to management.我见过那个三代人形，接通和上边的通讯。

???She belongs to Cecht FABN. Her previous mission is complete, which means she currently has no cooperative partnership with us.她隶属于赛诺菲与法本集团，之前的任务已经完成，目前与我们并无合作关系。

LonnieI put in so much effort and finally managed to find the Conglomerate's vaccines!我已经好不容易找回财团的疫苗了！

LonnieThat Doll is obviously here to wipe out all traces of what happened.那家伙明显是要摧毁一切的行迹。

LonnieTell her to stop immediately. Otherwise, her actions will be seen as a provocation towards Mangi Security.让她尽快停止，否则，视为对曼尼安保的挑衅。

???I will help you contact the relevant persons to check on the content of her work.我会帮您尽快联系，确认她的工作内容。

Mangi Security LeaderSir—朗尼长官——

LonnieFight back. We do not have a cooperative relationship with her at the moment.反击，目前不是合作关系。

LonnieThose Conglomerate fellas... Their tasking is never transparent nor public. Did our mission run against hers?财团那些家伙……任务从来不公开透明。是任务撞上了吗？

(Daytime, Yellow Zone, aboard the Elmo, clear weather.)（黄区，白天，艾莫号，天气晴。）

GrozaCommander, we followed your orders and did not engage in combat with either side.指挥官，我们按照你的吩咐，暂未和任何一方开战。

GrozaWe are currently searching for our withdrawal route.正在寻找撤离路径。

CommanderMayling has confirmed that our Blusphere is still in her cryopreservation chamber aboard the Elmo.美玲已经确认过，艾莫号上的蓝雪球依然老老实实待在细胞冷冻舱之内。

GrozaThat would mean that Blusphere has swapped frames.这么说，蓝雪球应该是更换了素体。

GrozaShe seems to be looking for something, only attacking vehicles with cargo.她看起来像是在找东西，攻击的全是携带货物的车辆。

CommanderLooking for vaccines...? There's still no need to go against Mangi Security.为了疫苗吗……没必要和曼尼安保针锋相对。

CommanderGet back to the Elmo ASAP.你们尽快回来。

LentineTeam Alpha, grab as much cargo as you can. Prioritize grabbing loaded vehicles. Team Foxtrot, help Alpha with their retreat.Alpha队尽快转移货物，优先抢装了货的车，Foxtrot队支援Alpha队撤离。

KennyAdjutant, Lonnie sent you a communication request.副官，朗尼那儿已经发来通讯请求了。

LentineI'll stall for a bit. Tell Alpha to quicken their pace.我会拖一会儿，让Alpha队动作加快。

LonnieOmen. Nothing good happens when your squad makes an appearance.噩兆，你们一出现总没什么好事。

LentineHey, I rushed over here on the request of your Squad 2. What's up with you? If you don't need our help, I'll ask my people to stand down.我可是接了二队的求援加急赶过来的，怎么，不需要我们帮助的话，我立刻安排人撤下。

LentineKenny, tell Charlie and Delta to retreat. Don't interfere with Lonnie's commanding.柯尼，让Charlie队 、Delta队撤退，别影响朗尼发挥。

LonnieTell those teams to remain right where they are. Did you think that I wouldn't notice your people among mine, grabbing those vaccines?这两队留下，别以为我不知道，那队在拿疫苗的也是你的人。

LentineI'm here on a rescue mission without pay. Something must be brought back as a reward for my brothers-in-arms, don't you think so?我无偿救人跑一趟，总得拿点报酬回去犒劳下兄弟们。

LentineYou don't have any problem with me seizing some cargo from the Varjagers, right?顺手缴获瓦良格帮的货物，没有任何问题吧。

LonnieThe cargo is MINE!那些货物都是我的！

LentineWhen did the Varjagers' stuff start belonging to you?什么时候，瓦良格帮的东西和你扯上关系了。

LentineI heard that they've been getting bold lately, robbing the Yellow Zones all over. Don't tell me that... you're the one backing them up?听说最近他们胆子大到敢四处抢东西，该不会，是你在给他们当靠山吧。

Lonnie...……

LentineSorry, man. I had no idea that they were under you.抱歉、抱歉，我不知道他们是你的人。

LentineI'll make sure to give you a call the next time I make a move. Still, why not share some of the loot we're getting from this mission with me?下次动手的时候一定提前和你打声招呼，不过，这回的报酬应该分我些吧。

LentineA third-gen Doll is here to tear up the Varjagers, after all. I'll cover for you out of respect, so that means we're kind of in the same boat, right?毕竟三代人形出手摧毁瓦良格帮，我看在你的面子上帮你掩护，咱们也算是，在一条船上了吧。

Lonnie...The Varjagers... have no relationship with me.……瓦良格帮，和我没有任何关系。

LonnieThat third-gen Doll is attacking us for no reason. I have reported this matter to the top brass and asked them to investigate.三代人形无缘无故向我们攻击，我已经上报高层，要求彻查此事。

LonnieThe issue with that third-gen Doll must be resolved immediately.尽快解决三代人形的问题。

LentineJudging by her movements, her goal seems to be to destroy the cargo.看她的行动路线，她的目标应该是摧毁货物。

LentineWhy don't we... set up a trap and lure her in?不如……请君入瓮。

LonnieMy mission is to retrieve the vaccines! The third-gen Doll must not get close to them.追回疫苗是我的任务！不能让三代人形靠近。

LentineFine, fine. I'll get Alpha to pull back.是、是。我会让Alpha队撤离。

KennyAdjutant, we have finished transferring the cargo.副官，按照你的安排，货物已经转移完毕。

LentineLeave the vehicle there to act as a decoy.把车留着转移视线。

LentineWhat could that third-gen Doll get from the Varjagers?三代人形，能从瓦良格帮这里拿什么呢？

(Lentine's gaze turns towards the raging battle not far from her. The loaded vehicles are destroyed by artillery fire, one by one.)（兰汀眺望着不远处激烈的战场，几辆装载货物的车在炮火中被一一摧毁。）

(One of the trucks catches her attention. Lentine's face darkens upon recognizing the Doll at the driver's seat.)（视线扫到其中一辆货车时，开车的人形让兰汀眸色一暗。）

Lentine(Those are his Dolls...)（是他的人……）

KennyOur personnel have successfully extracted.我们的人已经撤离完毕。

LentineLure her into the warehouse. Her goal is to destroy the cargo, right? Then let her disappear along with the cargo.把她引到仓库。不是想摧毁货物吗？就让她和货物一起消失吧。

(Blusphere walks into the warehouse. The incessant Varjagers behind her try to block her to the best of their ability.)（蓝雪球走入仓库，身后的虫子还在不厌其烦地挣扎阻挡。）

(Her gaze sweeps across the various types of cargo. Vaccines, pharmaceutical materials, weapons... But whatever she is looking for, it's not here.)（她的视线快速扫过货品，疫苗、药物原材料、武器……唯独没有她想要的东西。）

(She steps on a landmine, causing an explosion to erupt from the warehouse. Gunfire from armored vehicles and RPGs rain down on her location, engulfing Blusphere.)（脚下忽然踩中地雷，随着轰鸣声在仓库位置响起，装甲车子弹以及火箭筒蜂拥而至，将蓝雪球彻底吞没。）

KennyWe have found no trace of the enemy.目前没有检索到敌人的踪迹。

LentineDo not stop firing until all ammunition is used up.继续攻击，直到用完子弹为止。

(Blusphere emerges from the smoke. Bullets swarm her, following her every move akin to a crowd of furious hornets, but she simply disintegrates the entire warehouse before leaving, paying no attention to her attackers.)（蓝雪球从烟尘中窜出，海量子弹追随她的行动蜂拥而至，对方走之前不忘彻底摧毁整个仓库，随后才头也不回离开。）

Mangi Security LeaderDid that third-gen Doll leave, just like that? We lost so many people because of her!三代人形，就这样走了，她害我们折损了不少人！

LonnieOmen lives up to its name.“噩兆”队如其名。

KennyLonnie's squad sustained immense losses. He might have a difficult time with his report.这回朗尼的队伍损失惨重，只怕他不好交代。

LentineThrowing all caution aside to prioritize vaccine retrieval was always going to cost him more than it's worth.过于执念想要拿回疫苗，只会得不偿失。

KennyAll third-gen Dolls are under the Conglomerate, from what I know. She really shouldn't be attacking us.据我所知三代人形都在财团手里，应该不会对我们发起攻击才对。

LentineDolls are just machines that follow orders. They don't have things such as bonds with humans.人形不过是执行命令的机器，哪会和人类讲什么情谊。

LentineEven if a Doll did work with you before, she wouldn't hesitate to kill you if her master ordered it.即便是有过合作关系，只要主人下达了新的命令，便不会顾及其他。

(Green Zone, in an office block owned by Mangi Security, clear weather.)（绿区，曼尼安保办公区，晴。）

CarmenI need an explanation. Why did that third-gen Doll attack Mangi Security even though she knew who the latter was?我需要一个解释，为什么三代人形会在明知道对方是曼尼安保的情况下仍然发动攻击。

CocoonBlusphere has returned under the wing of Cecht FABN. I am not authorized to disclose the details of her mission to you.目前蓝雪球的归属已经重归赛诺菲与法本集团，她所执行的任务我无权向您告知。

CarmenHave you forgotten that Mangi Security sacrificed a whole unit for her previous mission?!别忘了之前曼尼安保可是为了她的任务牺牲了一整个队伍！

CarmenNo explanation was given for that!至今没有任何解释。

CocoonCarry out missions to the letter. Do not excessively ask questions or interfere. That agreement is the cornerstone behind Cecht FABN's choice of Mangi Security as a partner.严格执行任务，不多问、不干涉，这是赛诺菲与法本集团选择与曼尼安保合作的基石。

CarmenThat is only valid provided the mission was completed with reasonable results.这要在任务合理完成的条件下才成立。

CarmenNow, I have reason to believe that Blusphere intentionally sacrificed the whole unit.现在，我有理由怀疑，曼尼安保部队的整队牺牲是她故意为之。

CocoonPlease don't worry. Blusphere is not equipped with any self-learning modules. She will never have a sense of "self".请放心，蓝雪球并不具备自我学习的相关模块，因此不会产生“自我”的概念。

CocoonWhich is why she's the perfect executioner of tasks. With mission completion as her priority, anything that prevents her from completing the mission will be eliminated.她是任务的最佳执行者，以任务完成为第一要义，任何阻拦她的存在，都会被舍弃。

CocoonI believe that Blusphere wouldn't have attacked Mangi Security if they didn't interfere with her work.我想倘若曼尼安保不出手阻拦她的工作，蓝雪球势必不会发动攻击。

CocoonShe prioritizes the mission. That's all there is to it.任务优先，仅此而已。

CocoonBlusphere is not obligated to protect or support Mangi Security's work in her current mission.蓝雪球的任务中并无掩护或支援曼尼安保成员的工作。

CarmenHmph.哼。

CocoonBlusphere has maintained a 100% mission success rate through all her missions so far.目前为止，蓝雪球所有的工作保持着百分之一百的完成率。

CocoonThat includes her previous mission that was completed with the assistance of Mangi Security.包括，之前与曼尼安保协作完成的工作。

CarmenI clearly remember that particular mission ending in failure.那个任务我记得失败了。

CocoonThat mission is now complete.现在，已经被完成了。

CocoonThe effort she put in resulted in heavy damage to her frame.为了完成这个任务，她的素体损伤不小。

CarmenNothing excuses the fact that as a third-gen Doll in command, the casualty rates were completely outside of her consideration.三代人形担当指挥，伤亡率全然没在她的考虑范围之内。

CocoonI will convey your suggestions. A human officer from Mangi Security will serve as the overall commander if our companies collaborate again.我会传达您的建议，未来若有合作项目，由曼尼安保的人类指挥官担当行动负责。

CocoonThis will help ensure that the casualties remain within a reasonable range.确保伤亡率在一个合理的范围之内。

CocoonPlease excuse me for now, as I have to deal with some follow-up matters.容我先行告辞，安排后续事宜。

Deluded Illusion 虚妄幻觉

GrozaCommander, we've finished counting the vaccines we took from the Varjagers. Judging by the scale of this theft, the Varjagers are probably responsible for all the stolen vaccines lost by pharmaceutical companies.指挥官，我们清点了从瓦良格帮处抢到的疫苗，从规模来看，医药公司失窃的疫苗应该全被瓦良格帮抢夺了。

GrozaThe Varjagers had lots of pharmaceutical raw materials in their warehouse. We didn't have time to take everything, but we do have some.他们的仓库里还有不少医疗原材料，我们没时间全部带回来，只带回来了部分。

GrozaThey're probably also behind most of the raw material robberies that occurred in the Yellow Zones recently.这段时间黄区失窃的大部分医疗原材料，应该也是瓦良格帮抢走的。

ColphneWith vaccine prices sky-high at the moment... selling them would yield us a jaw-dropping fortune.以现在这些疫苗的市场价……出售它们一定是个惊人的数字。

VepleyOnce we sell them, Vepley will be able to buy everything she wants! The Commander will be able to buy all the equipment on his wish list as well!诶……等卖了这些，维普蕾想要买的东西，还有指挥官想买的器材，全都能有钱买了！

ColphneIt's a pity that Blusphere destroyed all the remaining vaccines back there. Those would have sold for a good sum as well.可惜了蓝雪球摧毁的疫苗，那些价值也绝对不低。

CommanderWe'll attract trouble if we sell these recklessly. I've already contacted underground brokers for a trade request.贸然出售只会引火烧身。我已经联系过暗商提出交易要求。

CommanderHopefully this will bring us face-to-face with the people buying up raw materials.希望能和幕后收购疫苗原材料的人见上一面。

KrolikThat damn Blusphere was willing to destroy all the vaccines if it meant leaving nothing for the people present back there.蓝雪球那家伙，宁愿破坏所有疫苗都不肯留下。

KrolikWhat the hell is going on in her mind?!到底在想什么？！

NemesisLush green... Decorates the within...苍翠之色……点缀于其间……

KrolikHow could I possibly know what Blusphere is thinking? Waking her up for an interrogation is even more absurd of an idea.我怎么可能知道蓝雪球在想什么，唤醒她直接问更是完全不可能的。

DandelionPerhaps her goal never changed.也许她的目标从未发生过改变。

CommanderYou mean... she's coming for the chip?你的意思是……芯片？

DandelionAccording to the intel analysis provided by Groza, Blusphere seems like she intends to destroy something. If her original mission is still proceeding as normal, then her goal must be to destroy the chip.根据闪电提供的情报分析，蓝雪球有意在摧毁什么东西，如果她原本的任务还在正常进行，那么应该打算摧毁的就是芯片了。

KlukaiBut everyone in the Survey Corps has perished. Which means her only remaining clue is... us.勘测部队已经全军覆没，蓝雪球唯一能找的线索……就是我们。

CommanderNot giving up despite a frame loss, I see.即便已经摧毁了一次，仍然不放心吗。

KlukaiShe was commanding large numbers of Mangi Security personnel before her destruction.之前她的手下之中有大量曼尼安保的成员。

KlukaiBut when we were at the Varjagers' base, she attacked Mangi Security with zero hesitation.在瓦良格帮的基地之内她却能毫不犹豫地攻击曼尼安保成员。

GrozaIf it wasn't for Mangi Security holding her off, we wouldn't have gotten away so easily.如果不是曼尼安保的牵制，我们也没办法这么顺利地离开。

KrolikWe don't have to thank our enemies. Mangi Security is no friend of ours.感谢敌人的话大可不必说，曼尼安保和我们没什么交情。

GrozaThis bothers me a little... Why did Blusphere attack them at all?我只是稍微有些在意……对方为什么会这么做。

GrozaLooks like there is no direct superior-subordinate relationship between Mangi Security and Blusphere.看起来，曼尼安保与蓝雪球之间并非是直接的从属关系。

ColphneCommander, the cargo we seized seems to contain records on the Varjagers' use of Erdis. They seem to be treating it as an anti-radiation vaccine.指挥官，我们收缴的库存中似乎还有瓦良格帮使用厄狄斯的记录。瓦良格帮，似乎将厄狄斯视作了抗辐射的疫苗。

ColphneActually, it's more like they replaced the use of vaccines with Erdis.不，应该说，他们用厄狄斯代替了正常疫苗的使用。

██/██ Erdis used: 12 doses. ██/██ Erdis used: 15 doses. Vaccines used: 1 dose. ██/██ Erdis used: 3 doses. ██/██ Erdis used: 43 doses.

Vaccines used: 19 doses.█月█日 厄狄斯支出12份。 █月█日 厄狄斯支出15份。疫苗支出1份。 █月█日 厄狄斯支出3份。 █月█日 厄狄斯支出43份。疫苗支出3份。 █月█日 厄狄斯支出2984份。 █月█日 厄狄斯支出598份。疫苗支出19份。

GrozaThe specific usage reports are locked behind access permission, so we can't view them.具体使用报告权限被锁定不可查看。

GrozaTheir vaccine usage is significantly lower compared to their Erdis use. It seems that their vaccines are provided only to select high-ranking Varjagers.疫苗的支出数量明显低于厄狄斯，并且似乎只为部分瓦良格帮高级成员提供。

DandelionContraband like these are not medically certified for use, but still, they circulate in both Yellow Zone and Green Zone markets.这些违禁品，并没有获得医疗认证。在黄区以及绿区之中都有流通。

DandelionMost users treat Erdis as a lifesaving medicine that helps them combat E.L.I.D. symptoms.大部分使用者将厄狄斯视为抵抗E.L.I.D.症状的救命药。

DandelionAs for its effectiveness... We can obtain the answer directly from the Varjagers' usage data.至于有没有效果……我们能够直接从瓦良格帮的使用数据中得到答案。

Deluded Illusion 虚妄幻觉

ColphneAn efficacy trial once demonstrated that Erdis is 20% more effective than placebos at relieving E.L.I.D. symptoms.与安慰剂相比，厄狄斯在抗E.L.I.D.症状的有效性实验中展露出高达20％的减缓症状效果。

ColphneIts most obvious effect is calming the user's mind, allowing E.L.I.D. patients to forget their pain for a short while.最为明显的是药剂能起到缓和精神的作用，从而让E.L.I.D.患者短暂遗忘痛苦。

VepleyHuh? Does that mean it's actually somewhat effective?嗯？这么说它也是有点效果的。

ColphneNo. A drug like this is more like a poison that temporarily suppresses pain, rather than a medication that is truly helpful.不，这样的药剂，与其说是治疗药剂，倒不如说是短暂压制痛苦的毒药。

ColphneIt appears to produce a therapeutic effect, but long-term use will lead to addiction.看似有治疗效果，但实则长期服用之后，会产生依赖性。

ColphneIf the user doesn't take it for a long time, their symptoms will worsen at an incredible pace.一旦长久不注射，患者就会以更为夸张的速度被感染。

ColphneThe worst part is, Erdis' most powerful effect is its hallucinogenic properties. So-called reports of it curing E.L.I.D. might just be part of the user's imagination.更别说它最大的效果是致幻。所谓的能够治疗好病症，恐怕都是服用者脑内的幻想。

ColphneErdis does nothing to stop radiation from affecting the user's body. Using Erdis simply makes the brain release dopamine, which helps boost the user's spirits and make them feel happy, which helps them better resist the encroachment of pain using their own willpower.辐射能量一直在影响服用者的身体，使用厄狄斯不过是让大脑分泌出能提振精神的多巴胺，使得患者感到快乐，从而用意志力抵御痛苦的侵蚀。

ColphneIn the long run, using Erdis will only cause patients to avoid proper treatment and eventually die.长此以往，使用厄狄斯只会让患者逃避医治最终死亡。

LennaYou fell to the ground in pain. How would that feel good?你明明当时都痛苦地倒在地上了，怎么会感到快乐呢？

IsaYou have not been chosen by God. You wouldn't understand.你并非被神明选中之人，不明白那种感受。

IsaDr. Orphia once mentioned that radiation affects our cells. Humans are unable to withstand the pain brought on by cytopathy, eventually causing our minds to break which turns us into ELIDs.奥尔菲娅医生曾经说过，辐射能量影响了我们的细胞，人类无法抵御细胞病变产生的痛苦，才会精神崩溃最终沦为生骸。

(One, two, three... The crowd swarms towards the drugs, causing a stampede.)（一个、两个、三个……人们蜂拥冲向药剂，全然不顾踩踏。）

(One person falls down, and another stomps on him savagely. He struggles and tries to get up. A roar of rage erupts from his mouth, his mutated hand grabbing ankles and pulling people to the ground.)（摔倒的身躯被下一个人狠狠踩下，他挣扎着爬起，嘴里爆发出愤怒的咆哮，用异变的手腕扯倒身边人的脚踝。）

(The horde of infected tear each other apart, snatching drugs from each other, putting in everything they have to get their hands on the drugs that appeared before them.)（人们彼此攻击、抢夺，拼尽一切掠夺出现在眼前的药剂。）

(Shambling bodies eventually turn into mindless ELIDs, emitting last roars before completely succumbing.)（蹒跚的步伐在行走中逐渐变成了没有理智的生骸，只留下了一声声咆哮。）

LennaIsa! Isa! Calm down!伊莎！伊莎！冷静一点！

(Isa attempts to open the test tube to drink all of its contents upon snagging one in the skirmish.)（不顾一切抢夺到药剂的伊莎几乎是瞬间便想要仰头将红色的药剂一饮而尽。）

(Lenna tries to pry the drug from her, but Isa has a death grip on it. The crowd notices and lunges forward with a mix of human shrieks and ELID roars, encircling Lenna and Isa.)（莱娜尝试让伊莎放弃手中的药剂，可伊莎早已将它死死握紧。蜂拥而来的人影夹杂着生骸的咆哮，将莱娜以及伊莎包围在其中。）

(Lenna's finger touches the trigger, but she grits her teeth and puts down her gun.)（莱娜的指尖触及扳机，最后还是咬牙放下。）

(Sending a drug-desperate ELID flying with a kick, Lenna lifts Isa into the air and swiftly runs away from the chaotic crowd.)（踹飞想要扑上来抢夺药剂的生骸，莱娜扛起伊莎，快速脱离了混乱的人群。）

LennaDon't drink it!不要喝了！

IsaLet go of me!放开我！

LennaThis isn't medicine! Did you forget? The doctor gave you vaccines! Isa! Isa!这不是药剂，你忘了吗？医生给你过疫苗的，伊莎，伊莎！

(Isa pays Lenna no attention and pulls out the cork from the test tube. A smack from Lenna's palm renders her unconscious. Lenna lets out a sigh and carries Isa on her back.)（伊莎不顾一切地拔出药剂的木塞，全然不顾莱娜的阻拦。莱娜用手掌劈晕了伊莎，环顾不远处混乱的生骸，叹了一口气，将对方背在了身上。）

Lenna(Where's the signal jammer...? I can't see where it is at all...)（信号屏蔽装置……完全找不到在哪里啊——）

Lenna(If Leva were in my place... she'd probably hack into the comms of some Dolls to look for clues.)（如果是莱娅姐的话……应该会入侵其他人形的通讯系统，寻找线索吧。）

(A jeep speeds through the Yellow Zone at top speed.)（黄区，一辆吉普车以极快的速度飞速前行。）

(ELIDs attracted by the engine noise swarm towards the jeep. Bullets pierce through the air and produce holes in ELID heads, dropping them one by one.)（生骸被引擎所发出的声响吸引，向吉普车蜂拥而去。子弹划破空气，击中生骸的头部，将涌向车辆的生骸一一清理。）

RucheyWow~ As expected of Vivi~ The roads are really "smooth" today. We'll be reaching our destination soon.哇~不愧是vivi~路况非常“通畅”，马上我们就能抵达目的地了。

WelrodThe number of ELIDs here is abnormally high.这里的生骸数量多得有些异常。

HarpsyWill Lenna be alright?莱娜应该不会有事吧？

WelrodWe don't know what's going on in the Paradeus base yet. She's on a stealth mission... but if Lenna has to wait it out there without sufficient support, she'll still be in a lot of danger.目前还不知道帕拉蒂斯据点内的情况，就算是潜伏任务……在没有足够支援在外待机的情况下，危险系数仍然不低。

VectorKlukai will be supporting us.可露凯将会同步支援我们的行动。

RucheyHmm. I wonder if the Commander will appear.唔，不知道指挥官会不会来。

RucheyI heard that Klukai and the others already met him.我听说，可露凯她们已经和指挥官碰面了。

HarpsyHarpsy wants to meet the Commander too.哈卜茜也想见指挥官。

RucheyIt should be possible... once the Agreement loosens up.只要协议松动了……就不会有问题了吧。

RucheyWe have reached the coordinates that Lenna gave us.莱娜给出的坐标位置就在这。

RucheyNot many traces are left from the battle. Tracking will be somewhat difficult, but we can still try.战斗残留痕迹并不多。追踪有些难度，但可以尝试。

HarpsyShould we collect all the broken test tubes on the ground?地上的残余试管需要全部收集起来吗？

WelrodThere is very little residue left in the test tubes here.试剂管内的残留物微乎其微。

WelrodWe won't be able to determine the contents of the drug with such small samples.仅凭这些残余，没办法查清药剂的成分。

HarpsyLenna definitely left some clues for us... Where is it...?莱娜留下的线索，在哪里呢……

WelrodJudging by the number of broken test tube pieces, about twenty tubes were given out. But there is no trace of the victims.看药剂瓶的残留数量似乎有二十余份，但并没有遇难者的痕迹。

(Welrod bends down to pick up a shattered test tube. A few drops of liquid remain on the glass piece.)（维尔德俯下身捡起一支已经摔碎的药剂，碎裂的玻璃片中仅留下了几滴残留的液体。）

(The group looks everywhere in the vicinity for clues. Vector squats down and digs up a patch of soft soil. An intact test tube full of red liquid emerges from its earthly storage.)（众人四处翻找，维克托蹲下身子，挖开松软的泥土，一支装满红色液体的透明试管正被完整地存储于其中。）

WelrodWatch for disturbed soil!观察泥土的新旧！

VectorFound it.找到了。

RucheyUwah—That looks disgusting. Like something made out of blood.哇——看上去好恶心的感觉。像是血液制品。

WelrodHarpsy, I remember you working on some portable radiation detectors. Do we have them?哈卜茜，我记得你之前有研发勘测辐射能量的便携用具吧。

HarpsyThey're in the jeep. I'll go get them.在车上，我这就去拿。

VectorSomething is off about the number of ELIDs.生骸的数量不对。

WelrodIndeed. The concentration of ELIDs increases the closer we are to this area.没错，我们一路走来，越靠近这片区域，遇到的生骸数量越多。

WelrodThese numbers are kind of high even for a Yellow Zone.即便在黄区，这样的数量也有些异常了。

HarpsyOoh...唔……

HarpsyThe Collapse radiation levels here are much higher than the Yellow Zone average. In fact, it's almost at the level of a Red Zone.这里的坍塌辐射浓度比正常黄区的浓度高了不少，已经都快要接近红区的水平了。

HarpsyIf what Lenna mentioned was true... that the Yellow Zone infectees used this as a temporary gathering spot, just staying here would exacerbate their condition.如果按照莱娜说的……这里是黄区E.L.I.D.患者的临时聚集地，待在这片区域只会加速病情恶化。

WelrodGathering hopeful infectees and turning them into Paradeus Unitates in the name of salvation...以救赎之名，将那些满怀憧憬心存希望的患者，转为帕拉蒂斯的徒从。

WelrodHow despicable.卑劣至极。

Sleeping Subject 沉睡的实验品

PoludnitsaThe long-time client purchasing pharmaceutical raw materials from underground brokers refuses to meet you.在暗商这里收购医疗原料的老客人拒绝和你见面。

PoludnitsaHowever, she is willing to buy all your materials and vaccines at a high price.不过，你手里所有的材料、包括疫苗她都愿意高价收购。

CommanderWe can establish contact, at least.我们可以先建立联络。

PoludnitsaI can vouch for you, but making rash trades in Yellow Zones is still no easy task.即便有我为你做担保，在黄区贸然达成交易也并非易事。

PoludnitsaWhich is why underground brokers continue to exist. This is our basis for survival out here. A reliable intermediary who serves to alleviate the concerns of collaboration between two parties.这也是暗商能够存在的根基，一个靠谱的中间人，缓解双方合作时的忧虑。

Commander...……

PoludnitsaShe's not the only party buying vaccines and raw materials in Yellow Zones, but she's the only reliable client who fits your requirements.如今在黄区愿意收购疫苗以及医药原材料的并不只有一家，只是符合你要求、最稳定的客人只有那一位。

PoludnitsaI can introduce some other clients to you if you wish.我可以为你介绍别的客人。

CommanderSounds good.可以。

PoludnitsaLet me tell you in advance that face-to-face meetings will always carry risks.提前说明，见面定然存在危险性。

PoludnitsaThere are plenty of robbers vying for vaccines and raw materials around here. I do not recommend skipping the underground broker step.想要掠夺疫苗和原材料的不在少数，我不推荐你绕过暗商的渠道。

CommanderWhat I'm buying is information.我买的是情报。

PoludnitsaI'll send you the quotation ASAP, of course. However... as for whether or not contact can be established with the other party, that is not something I am, or should be responsible for.当然，我会尽快将清单发给你，至于……是否能成功联络上，就不是我应该负责的事情了。

DandelionAre you planning to intervene in the Yellow Zone vaccine business, Commander?黄区疫苗的生意，指挥官想介入吗？

CommanderNo... So long as there's no cure for E.L.I.D., one can never stop vaccines or Erdis from having a huge market.不……只要辐射症无法解决，无论是疫苗还是厄狄斯都将拥有极大的市场。

CommanderMy concerns are the following: the abuse of Erdis, Paradeus' revival, and why they created Helena and Melanie.我担心的是厄狄斯的滥用，帕拉蒂斯死灰复燃，以及他们创造海伦娜和梅兰妮的真实目的。

MelanieHave I caused you trouble again, Commander?梅兰妮是不是给指挥官添麻烦了？

(After Blusphere's frame was placed in the cryopreservation chamber, Mayling and Groza had to make multiple attempts at encouraging Melanie before she mustered the courage to leave her bedroom.)（蓝雪球的素体被放入细胞冷冻舱后，美玲和闪电劝了梅兰妮好几次，才让她终于有勇气离开卧室。）

(Melanie has been in a constant state of unease and anxiety for the past few days. She seems to be worried that Blusphere would start self-repairing if she ran around the Elmo as she pleased. )（梅兰妮似乎是担心她的乱跑会让蓝雪球素体自然修复，这几日，总是处于忧虑不安的状态。）

(She timidly tugs at the hem of my clothes upon hearing me mention Paradeus. Tears are welling up in her eyes.)（此刻听闻我提到帕拉蒂斯，她怯生生地拉了我的衣角，眼底已经有泪水在酝酿。）

CommanderIt's not your fault.这不是你的错。

MelanieI don't want to go back.我不想回去。

MelanieI want to stay on the Elmo forever. At Commander's side.想永远在艾莫号上，在指挥官的身边。

DandelionYou'll probably choose to destroy Paradeus for the second time, regardless of their goals, right?无论帕拉蒂斯的目的是什么，指挥官都会选择将它再度摧毁吧。

CommanderMmhmm... It's highly likely that they are still going after Relics.嗯……他们的目的，大概率还是遗迹。

CommanderWilliam should not exist.威廉不该存在。

DandelionFrom what we know as of now, the Paradeus of today has already made their way into the ranks of conglomerates and found their support.目前来看，如今的帕拉蒂斯已经攀扯上财团的助力。

DandelionIf you wish to eradicate them completely, destroying all their bases won't be enough.想要彻底摧毁，仅从消灭据点角度而言，并不足以实现彻底根除。

MelanieI'm ok as long as I'm together with the Commander. We can just run far, far away.梅兰妮只要能和指挥官在一起就可以，我们可以逃得远远的。

CommanderRunning away won't solve our problems. The only way to ensure your safety is to find out Paradeus' goals and destroy them before it's too late.逃不是办法。只有彻底搞清楚帕拉蒂斯的目的，及时摧毁，才能确保你的安全。

KlukaiLeva just sent over a message, telling me that Vector's team has reached the coordinates Lenna gave us.莱娅传来消息，维克托所在的小队已经赶到莱娜之前提到的坐标点。

KlukaiThe drug Lenna mentioned has been found, and the gathering spot has Collapse radiation levels exceeding normal limits. Probably the work of Paradeus. In addition, Welrod suspects the Paradeus drug to have some anti-radiation properties.莱娜提到的药剂已经找到，聚集地的坍塌辐射浓度超标，应该是帕拉蒂斯干的。另外，维尔德怀疑帕拉蒂斯提供的药剂有一定抗辐射的作用。

MechtyUuu... It's all so tiresome. When will Paradeus be erased?唔……好麻烦，什么时候帕拉蒂斯才能彻底被摧毁啊。

KlukaiWe'll have more info once we confirm the components of the drug.更多情报还需要等药剂的成分确定才能知晓。

KlukaiVector and the others are making their way to Lenna's last known location to investigate the Paradeus base.维克托她们已经进一步前往莱娜信标消失的地方，调查帕拉蒂斯的据点。

MechtyAre we heading out?又要出发了吗？

KlukaiGo make your pre-battle preparations.做好战斗前的准备。

MechtyOkay, okay... I'll go prepare...是——是——我这就去准备。

GrozaCommander, the underground broker has sent over the location for our vaccine trade.指挥官，暗商发来了疫苗和药材的交易地址。

GrozaIt's not too far away.就在不远处。

(A Varjager-style vehicle is driving through the Yellow Zone. When it slows down to a halt, a few missiles are fired towards it, blasting it over to its side.)（一辆瓦良格帮式样的车辆在黄区行驶，缓慢停下。几枚导弹射向车辆，瞬间将车辆直接炸翻在地。）

(A squad wearing Mangi Security uniforms swiftly encircles it.)（身穿曼尼安保制服的队伍，快速前压，将车辆完全包围。）

KennyAdjutant Lentine, there is no trace of the enemy. All the boxes in this transport are empty.兰汀副官，没有发现敌人的踪迹。货车里面的箱子检查过了，全是空的。

KennyThe driver... looked like a Dinergate?操作货车的……看上去像是兵蚁？

KennyIt already self-destructed. Team Alpha has its remains.已经自爆了，Alpha队已经成功回收。

KennyShould we pursue this matter?是否需要进一步追踪。

LentineOur mission ends here.收队。

LentineTell Lonnie that his intermediary is unreliable. They were planning to give him some empty boxes.告诉朗尼，他找的中间商有够不靠谱的，拿了一些空箱子交差。

LentineTell him to stop getting scammed by underground brokers.可别再被暗商骗光了钱。

(Daytime, Phia Pharmaceutical factory in the Yellow Zone.)（黄区，白天，菲尔娅医药厂。）

(I sold the raw materials we took from the Varjagers at a high price to Poludnitsa's long-time client.)（通过暗商的渠道，我将从瓦良格帮处抢来的药材原材料高价出售给佩妮泽背后的老客户。）

(The tracker moves until it finally reaches a certain set of coordinates.)（追踪器一路移动，最终停在了某个坐标点。）

GrozaThis is the factory we arrived at for our transport commission before.这个位置，是我们之前运送原材料的药厂。

KrolikThis factory again? It's fully automated! We couldn't find any clues at all!又是这个工厂，全自动化生产，根本找不到线索！

KrolikMaybe we should just rush in and turn the place upside down again.不如我们冲过去，再把那边翻个底朝天查一遍。

GrozaWe don't have a clear justification to enter at the moment.目前，我们没有明确的拜访理由。

GrozaJust knowing that they buy raw materials from underground brokers is not enough to justify a thorough investigation into their company.仅凭他们购买暗商手里的原材料这点情报，尚不足以对那家公司展开彻底调查。

CommanderI had Leva take a deeper look into the factory's upstream and downstream operations.我已经让莱娅从药厂的上下游进一步调查。

LevaLenna managed to contact me ten minutes ago.十分钟前，莱娜已经成功和我联络。

LevaShe had some... unexpected findings...稍微发现了一些，意想不到的东西……

LevaI think you'll be very interested, Commander.我想指挥官你一定会很感兴趣。

(I manage to make out a transparent biopod in the video Leva sent me.)（从莱娅所传来的视频中，我依稀看到了一个透明的生物舱。）

(The creature within has long since turned into an ELID, but remains in a mutated state.)（其中的生物，早已接近生骸的形象，维持在变异的状态之内。）

CommanderBiological experiments... Immune individuals.生物实验……免疫体。

LevaIndeed. Looks like most of the experiments ended up in failure.没错，看起来据点中的实验品大多为失败品。

LevaLenna once mentioned that humans who have turned into ELIDs are taken in by Paradeus as well.莱娜曾经提到过，变成生骸的人类仍然被帕拉蒂斯回收。

LevaI guess this is where they went.我想，这就是他们的归宿了。

LevaVector's team is already heading towards Lenna's location for support. They'll cover her retreat.维克托小队已经前往目的地支援，将会掩护莱娜撤退。

CommanderI see. Klukai's team is heading over on a Black Hawk.嗯，可露凯小队已经乘坐黑鹰前去支援。

(20 minutes ago.)（二十分钟前）

(Paradeus base in the Yellow Zone, clear weather.)（黄区，帕拉蒂斯据点，晴。）

IsaUgh...唔……

LennaAre you awake? I'm really sorry about what happened. You were acting really weird just now, so I had to knock you out to calm you down.你醒了吗？抱歉抱歉，刚才你的状态实在是太诡异了，我只能暂时让你失去意识冷静下来。

IsaWhere are the drugs?!药呢？！

LennaI have them... But I can't give them to you yet.在我手里……不过暂时还不能给你。

LennaOnce Leva checks the contents and deems them to be safe, I'll give them back to you, okay~?等我找莱娅姐检测一下里面的成分，只要没有问题，我会原封不动还给你的~

LennaI'm just suspicious of it. This drug is really strange. Does it contain any addictive ingredients?我总觉得，这个药剂怪怪的，真的不含让人成瘾的成分吗？

IsaSo what if it does? For people with no future like us, we are lucky to live another day.就算有又如何，对于我们这些没有未来的人而言，能多活一天都已经是幸运。

LennaRadiation sickness is not untreatable. Once we get back, I'll get Miss Kalin and Leva to help you. They can definitely find a way to save you.辐射病并非没有办法医疗，等回去之后，我就去找格琳姐和莱娅姐帮忙，一定会找到能救你的办法的。

IsaSave?救？

IsaI've been beyond saving for a long time now, just like this world.我早就没救了，就像这个世界也早就没救了一样。

LennaNo way! Leva and Miss Kalin, the Commander, and many more people... they are all trying their best to change this world.不会的！无论是莱娅姐还是格琳姐，还有指挥官，有很多很多的人……都在努力去改变这个世界。

LennaParadeus is no god worth worshiping!帕拉蒂斯根本就不是值得推崇的神明！

LennaI saw it with my own eyes. After you fainted, some people turned into ELIDs and they were taken away by Paradeus. They're definitely planning something illegal with them.我亲眼看到在你昏迷之后，有部分人变成了生骸，帕拉蒂斯甚至还会收集生骸，想也知道，肯定会干违法的事。

IsaAll we care about is whether we live or die.对我们而言，活着就足以。

LennaBut...可……

IsaYellow Zone residents have to fight for each and every day of our existence. We take on dangerous work all the time, but we have to spend nearly all our earnings on vaccines.黄区居民为了赚钱干的都是刀口舔血的生意，好不容易赚到的钱，还要为疫苗付出一大笔。

IsaWe can't even enter Green Zones without proof of an official vaccination.要是没有正规疫苗的接种凭证就进不了绿区。

IsaIf we don't earn enough money to buy vaccines on a regular basis, we'll eventually develop radiation sickness and die.长期凑不到买疫苗的钱，就会感染辐射病彻底没救。

IsaHeh... Only those in the Green Zones can be said to have a life. People like me? I can only turn to God and pray for salvation.呵……只有生活在绿区的人才能算活着，像我这种人，只能祈求神明的救助。

LennaAre you willing to accept their lies just for a chance to survive?即便是被骗，只要能活下去就可以？

LennaBut... even if you give them all your faith, they'll still...可……就算你拼尽一切去相信，还是会……

IsaIt is how it is. Surviving or becoming a test subject? No difference to me.这个世界本就如此。活下去，或者成为试验品，两者并无差别。

IsaNo one will save us.没人会救我们。

LennaI don't want the world to be this way...我不想要这样的世界……

IsaPerhaps my Lily could have grown to be as naïve and innocent as you if she had grown up in a Green Zone.要是我的莉莉从小能在绿区长大，也能像你这么天真吧。

LennaEh?!诶？！

IsaThe cost of living in a Green Zone is way too high. That child knows how poor I am, so she keeps telling me that she can receive a scholarship if she does well enough in school.绿区的开支太高了，那孩子知道我的经济情况，总说可以靠读书赚奖学金。

IsaShe tells me that the conglomerates will provide scholarship money for recipients, or at least a loan, so I don't have to worry about money...说是财团会提供奖学金，最差也有学费贷款，让我别担心钱的事情……

IsaBut if Lily has to pay off that loan all by herself, she'll eventually end up down my path.可那贷款，要是仅靠莉莉一个人还，她早晚都会走上和我一样的老路。

IsaYou're here for Paradeus' drugs, right?你来帕拉蒂斯是想取得药剂的吧。

IsaI don't care what your intentions are, but we're splitting them. I insist on it.我无所谓你的目的，对半分，这是我的要求。

LennaSelling Paradeus' drugs or imitation vaccines will put you in lots of danger.无论是销售帕拉蒂斯的危险药剂，还是疫苗仿制品，都是非常危险的行为。

IsaPavel said that your organization offered a one-to-one exchange.巴维尔说，你们的开价是一比一兑换。

IsaI want to exchange all these for official vaccines. Just give them to Pavel. His work takes him in and out of the Green Zones regularly, so he'll be able to pass them to my daughter.我要全部换成正规药剂，给巴维尔就行，他能经常进出绿区，能帮我带给我的女儿。

LennaI know that you're doing this for family, but...虽然你是为了家人……但……

LennaBut such a request...这样的请求……我……

(The duo creeps through the base till they reach what seems to be a warehouse. Isa manages to lure the Unitates away.)（莱娜与伊莎一路潜行，抵达一处看上去像是仓库的区域后，伊莎成功将看守的徒从引走。）

LennaThe way these drugs are stored makes this place feel more like a test lab than a drug storage.看药剂的存储方式，这里不像是药剂仓库，倒像是试验场所。

IsaWhat are you just standing around for? Go grab everything you see.愣着干什么，看到的全部打包带走。

(Lenna stands before what looks like a biopod, examining it closely. A male body is immersed in the liquid.)（莱娜站在一个看上去像是生物舱的仪器前仔细观察，液体完全覆盖住了一个人类的身躯。）

(Collapse crystals grow out of his body. The man's entire body seems to be maintained at a state where half of it is covered with crystal, and the other half not.)（坍塌晶体从他的身上蔓延而出，他的整副躯体维持在一半被坍塌晶体覆盖、一半维持人形的状态。）

(Lenna lowers her body, trying to take a closer look at his face, only to be greeted with eyes devoid of emotion. A green plant is growing out of each of his eyes.)（莱娜低下身子，想看清楚里面人的面容，却看到对方空洞的双眼之中此刻正蔓延出了两株绿色的植物。）

(Taking a deep breath, Lenna prepares to observe his situation further. The areas where Collapse crystals meet skin are covered with a dark-colored material. Upon a closer look, the material is discovered to be something akin to algae.)（莱娜深吸一口气，进一步观察，坍塌晶体和皮肤交接处蔓延着深色的物质，凑近了才能看清楚那是如同藻类一般的物质。）

LennaI remember him!我记得他!

LennaBack at the gathering spot, he refused to drink the drug and tried to run away after turning into an ELID. He was shot by Paradeus and thrown into the vehicle.在召集点的时候，他没有喝下药水，变成生骸逃走后，被帕拉蒂斯的人击伤随后带到了车上。

Isa...……

LennaHis body was covered with so many Collapse crystals back then, but it looks like his condition has stabilized.之前他身躯上出现了更多的辐射晶体，现在的状态竟然变得稳定了下来。

LennaWhy does it feel like he actually got better?!甚至症状变轻了？！

LennaNo, that might not be the case. Perhaps this algae covers more of his body.不，不一定，他身上很多区域也许被藻类覆盖着。

LennaImmunity... Their goal here is to select for radiation-immune individuals!免疫体……他们在这里实验的目标是筛选辐射免疫体！

IsaI don't think he can be considered human at this point, much less a radiation-immune individual.我不认为他现在还能被称为人类，更别说是辐射免疫体。

LennaA plant-and-human combo... If these tiny organisms on him really are algae, he might be more Boojum than human now.植物和人类结合……如果那些细小的生物真的是藻类，那么他现在的状态更接近伯介姆。

LennaI wonder... if he has any vital signs left.不知道……还有没有生命体征。

(Isa walks over to the biopod and knocks it hard several times.)（伊莎走至生命舱前，用力敲了数下。）

(The silent biopod is suddenly filled with bubbles, and the body within starts flailing about.)（原本还平静的生命舱忽然冒出气泡，漂浮在其中的躯体骤然开始挣扎。）

(Algae on the test subject spreads over his body uncontrollably while plant stems emerge and grow from his mouth.)（实验品身上的藻类面积不断扩大，植物的根茎从实验体的口中不断向外蔓延。）

(Thunk—)（“碰——”）

(A large branch inside the biopod suddenly thrashes in the direction of Isa and Lenna.)（一根硕大的植物枝干，在生命舱中猛然敲击伊莎以及莱娜所在的方位。）

(An emergency alarm blares, followed by the arrival of hurried footsteps.)（生命报警装置骤然拉响，匆忙的脚步声陆续赶到。）

UnitasWhat are you two doing here?!你们两个，在这里做什么！

IsaRun!快走！

LennaSorry, sorry! We got a bit lost.抱歉、抱歉，稍微迷路了一下。

LennaLet me guess... You probably know how to get into the comms channels here.我猜……你也许知道……这里的通讯频道？

UnitasO ants who have wandered into the abode of God, your blood shall spill to calm Lady Immore's fury.误入神明居所之地的蝼蚁，以你们的血液，平息大人的怒火。

(The Unitates swarm towards the intruders. Isa turns around, grabbing as many of the Paradeus drugs as possible.)（徒从蜂拥而上，伊莎转身试图收集那些存在场地之内的药剂。）

(Ice-cold crystals emerge from Isa's body. It wasn't long before they cover the entirety of the arm hidden under her cloak.)（冰凉的晶体从伊莎的躯体上蔓延而出，不多时，便覆盖住了她斗篷下的整条手臂。）

Sleeping Subject 沉睡的实验品

LennaLeva—莱娅姐——

LevaI'm here.我在。

LennaFinally managed to get a hold of you! I spent a lot of effort to do that.终于联系上你了，我可是花了不少功夫。

LennaI tried cutting into the comms channels with your methods as a reference, and it worked really well—稍微参考莱娅姐惯用的方法尝试了下频道截取，大成功——

LevaLooks like everything's going smoothly in your mission.看来你的任务一切顺利。

LevaMy worries were definitely misplaced.完全不用我担心。

LennaOf course not! I'm in great danger over here.哪有，分明是危机四伏。

LennaCome on, be more worried for my safety~ Leva~稍微担心一下我的安危啦~莱娅姐~

LevaSure~是、是。

LennaWith my effort, even the dangers of this perilous base will have to bow to me~在我的努力之下，就算是危机四伏的区域也能成功攻克~

LennaHave you received my coordinates, Leva?收到我的坐标了吗，莱娅姐。

LevaYeah. I've sent it to Vector. If the need arises, her team will storm the base to ensure your safe return.嗯，已经将坐标同步给维克托，必要时候，她们将会随时突进巢穴，对你进行救援。确保你能安全撤离。

LennaI did encounter enemies, but I managed to defeat them. This infiltration mission can continue.虽然遇到了敌人，不过已经成功解决了他，潜伏任务还能继续。

LennaBut... Leva, how do I help radiation sickness sufferers in this state...?就是……莱娅姐，辐射病患者应该怎么救助啊——

LennaOur collaborative partner is currently in the process of turning into an ELID.我们的合作者已经进入生骸化的状态了。

LennaI've rendered her unconscious for a bit, but I'm worried that she won't last long if this goes on.我已经让她暂时睡过去了，可我担心这样的情况撑不了多久。

LevaHave you used the anti-E.L.I.D. vaccines?抗E.L.I.D.疫苗呢。

LennaI've injected her with all the vaccines we brought. She's not recovering well.已经把带来的都给她注射了，她的身体状态完全无法恢复。

LennaThe doctor did mention that it's already a miracle that she still has a grip on her sanity.之前医生说过，她的状态能保持意志就是奇迹了。

LevaListen up, Lenna. Try to get away from the Paradeus base as soon as possible.听着，莱娜。想办法尽快离开帕拉蒂斯的据点。

LevaIf Vector's reasoning is right, the radiation levels in the Paradeus base will soon exceed that of the surrounding environment.如果维克托的推理正确，帕拉蒂斯内部巢穴的辐射浓度将会超越环境。

LennaThey're testing for immune individuals...免疫体实验……

LevaYou guessed it. They're going to expose the humans here to high levels of radiation to filter out individuals with high resistance to Collapse radiation, then take them in for further experimentation.没错，利用高强度的辐射浓度影响人类，再从中选择出抗坍塌辐射强的人类，进行进一步实验。

LevaThat's their plan according to our current speculation.这是我们目前的推测。

LennaI found some test subjects trapped in biopods here.我在帕拉蒂斯找到了培养实验品的舱体。

LennaJudging by the numbers here, there aren't too many test subjects at this base. Most of them seem to be E.L.I.D. patients with severe symptoms.根据数量来看，这个据点的试验品不多，大都是来自黄区的重症坍塌辐射患者。

LevaLooks like... there's a need to destroy this base completely.看来……有将其彻底销毁的必要。

LennaYeah. If we let this go, Paradeus will continue to brainwash Yellow Zone E.L.I.D. patients into joining them here.嗯，如果放任不管，未来黄区还会有更多的重症患者被洗脑加入帕拉蒂斯。

LevaHow are the enemy's numbers?敌人的数量如何？

LennaFrom what I've observed, this seems to be a temporary base.根据我的观察，我所在的位置应该是一个临时据点。

LennaThere are 30-odd of them, mostly gathered at the center of the base.敌人的数量在30人以上，大多集中在核心区域。

LennaA selection ceremony for followers happens every now and then.每隔一段时间才会有信徒的筛选仪式。

LennaI haven't managed to explore some parts of the base yet, so the estimate isn't solid.仍然有部分区域还未探索，可以预估的数量还不确定。

LennaI'll be investigating the center in a bit.一会儿我就去核心区域进一步调查。

LevaRemember to be careful.记得保护好自己。

LevaI'm available if you need me.我随时都在。

LennaHeheh, Leva~嘿嘿，莱娅姐——

LevaHuh?嗯？

LennaBig Sis Leva~莱娅姐——

LevaIf you're just going to act like a clingy girl, I'll hang up.只是撒娇的话我要关闭通讯了。

LennaWhaaat?! Fine.诶？！那好吧。

LevaHa. Remember that I'm not the only one backing you up today.呵，你的背后不仅有我。

LennaBut Leva is the best— You're so reassuring.莱娅姐最好啦——超让人安心。

LevaDid you run into something vexing that you want to talk about, Lenna?这话说得，像是你在帕拉蒂斯里面遇到了一些难事？

LennaI... I don't know what to do anymore, Leva.我……不知道应该怎么办了，莱娅姐。

LennaThe Commander put in so much effort to achieve the complete destruction of Paradeus back then.明明指挥官当初花了那么多精力，才将帕拉蒂斯彻底摧毁。

LennaBut now, Paradeus has risen from the ashes...可那么多年过去，帕拉蒂斯还是死灰复燃了。

Lenna...And just like before, E.L.I.D. patients suffering from heavy symptoms are willingly joining them.而且，还是那些重症患者自愿成为信徒。

LennaI don't know how I'm even going to save these people...我不知道该怎么救他们……

LennaA decade has passed, and you're still working so hard alongside Miss Kalin.十年过去，无论是莱娅姐还是格琳姐，都在拼命努力。

LennaIs the world really getting better?可世界真的有变好吗？

LennaI know that just thinking about this means that I'm too reliant on the Commander, but right now, I really want him to tell me what to do here.虽然知道这么想实在是太依赖指挥官了，但还是希望，指挥官能告诉我应该怎么做。

LevaDo you miss him?想指挥官了？

LennaUm... You're not wrong, I guess.唔……这么说也没错啦。

LennaI kind of understand how Miss Kalin feels now.我现在大概能理解格琳姐的心情了。

Lenna"Will you come back? Will you stay by my side?"能回来吗？能在我的身边吗？

Lenna(Laughs) It'll take some bravery to say this directly to the Commander's face.哈哈哈，这样的话直接对指挥官说出来还是需要一些勇气的。

LevaSave those words for when you speak to the Commander himself.留着亲自和指挥官说吧。

LevaHis reinforcements will be arriving soon.他的支援很快就到。

LennaI'll do my best, Leva.我会加油的，莱娅姐。

(After ending her call with Leva, Lenna takes pictures of all the lab equipment she can find in the Paradeus base and sends it all to Leva and the Commander.)（结束和莱娅的通讯后，莱娜四处拍照录下帕拉蒂斯据点内的实验器材，将它们一股脑地发送给莱娅和指挥官。）

LennaCollapse crystals... These are clearly commercial products with increased Collapse particle concentration.坍塌晶体……这分明是提高坍塌浓度的商品。

IsaGrouah—吼——

LennaIsa?!伊莎？！

IsaROOAAAH—吼——

LennaPull yourself together, Isa!振作一点！伊莎！

LennaAre you really going to use Paradeus' unknown drugs?难道真的要使用帕拉蒂斯的不明药剂吗？

LennaHang in there, Isa. Don't you want to go to the Green Zone?撑住点，伊莎。你不想去绿区了吗？

IsaGreen... Zone?绿……区？

LennaYes, the place where your daughter Lily lives.对，你女儿莉莉生活的地方。

LennaDon't you want to live alongside your family happily?你不想和家人一起好好活下去吗？

IsaLily... Lily... I have to live, I have to live on.莉莉——莉莉——我会活下去，我会活下去的。

(Crystals are emerging from Isa's body. Upon hearing Lenna mention "Lily", Isa comes back to her senses.)（晶体从伊莎的身躯上蔓延而出，听到莱娜所提到的“莉莉”名字后，伊莎的神情恍惚归位。）

(Lenna grabs Isa's wrists, reminding her again and again about Lily. Once, twice, thrice, till Isa's breathing returns to normal. She does it until Isa calms down again.)（莱娜握住了伊莎的手腕，在她的耳边呼唤着莉莉的名字，一遍、两遍、三遍，直到伊莎的呼吸渐渐平稳，似乎她的状态真的冷静了下来。）

(Isa takes out a blood-red drug from a hidden pocket and plunges the needle into her neck with practiced motions.)（伊莎从她藏起来的口袋中掏出了一支血红色的药剂，干脆利落地扎进了她的脖颈。）

(She lets out a sigh of relief, as if she just saw a glimpse of something she had long been waiting for. A relaxed smile appears on her face.)（她长叹一口气，像是看到了心中期待的场景，恍惚间露出了放松的微笑。）

NiterYou two... aren't Unitates, right?你们……不是徒从吧。

Moment of Intersection 交汇的瞬间

IsaNo, you're mistaken! I believe in Paradeus' God!不，我相信帕拉蒂斯的神明！

IsaPlease accept me as a follower. I shall praise the God's presence.请大人选我为信徒，我将赞扬主的存在。

NiterOh? If you are a follower of my God, prove your faith before me.哦？既是吾主的信徒，那么证明你的信仰吧。

(The Niter lifts a Collapse crystal into the air before crushing it.)（妮特抬起手，掐碎手中的坍塌晶石。）

(The crystals on Isa's body grow and spread once again. This time, her movements have slowed down.)（晶体再度从伊莎的身躯上蔓延而开，这一次，她的行动不再迅捷。）

(Collapse crystals pierce through Isa's legs. Her eyes have already turned blood-red, and she gurgles out a roar.)（坍塌晶体刺破伊莎的腿部，她的双眼已经猩红，挣扎着发出一声咆哮。）

LennaCalm down, Isa!冷静下来，伊莎！

LennaWhat the hell did you do?!你究竟做了什么？！

NiterHahahaha. The time has come for God to select a new servant.呵呵呵呵，为吾主筛选奴仆之时已至。

NiterSince you're willing to give your all to Paradeus, then prove yourself with everything you've got!既然你们愿意付出一切，那就用一切证明！

(Lenna looks back. Sounds of thrashing come from the once quiet biopod. The human inside... No, something like that can no longer be considered human.)（莱娜看向身后，原本平静的生物舱不断发出碰撞声，人类……不，已经无法将其称为人类了。）

(The Boojum crashes through the glass and attacks its surroundings wildly. The Niter lifts her hand to attack the rampaging Boojum.)（伯介姆冲破了玻璃，向周围胡乱攻击，妮特抬手攻击躁动的伯介姆。）

(It tries to attack Lenna and the Niter, but fails. Cringing from the pain, the Boojum turns around and sprints out of the area.)（伯介姆吃痛，接连袭击莱娜以及妮特失败后，转身冲出了莱娜所在的区域。）

NiterA defective product unable to heed God's providence should be destroyed.无法聆听神明旨意的残次品，销毁吧。

NiterYou two seem to still have a grip on your sanity...至于你们，看上去还有些理智……

NiterLet's try again—那就再试试吧——

???Please stop. If you increase the radiation levels again, all the organisms in this base will quickly develop severe E.L.I.D. symptoms and turn into ELIDs or Boojums.请住手。再提高辐射浓度，将会导致据点内的所有生命体快速感染E.L.I.D.辐射症状，彻底沦为生骸或者伯介姆。

NiterHah. Creatures who are unable to heed God's providence do not need to exist.呵，无法聆听神明旨意的生物本就没有存在的必要。

Orphia...I believe that I am of some value, at least.至少……我还有些利用价值吧。

LennaDr. Orphia! Why are you here?!奥尔菲娅医生，你怎么会在这里？！

OrphiaI am no longer able to simply stay put and watch our patients head to this place, which I know nothing about.我无法看着我们的患者们就这样去一个我丝毫不了解的地方。

OrphiaIf I'm here, I can at least... try to take care of them.有我在，至少……能确保他们的状况。

NiterYou're just a single doctor, one of millions around the world.一个医生罢了，想要多少都有。

OrphiaPlease leave. I will cure her. Is it not your organization's goal to help these patients live on?请你离开，我会治疗好她的，让身患辐射病的患者活下来，不就是你们的目的吗？

NiterSuch a task is impossible with your power alone.仅凭你，做不到。

NiterThe struggles of mortals... are akin to the feeble efforts of ants.凡人的挣扎，不过是……蝼蚁之举。

OrphiaLeave. I will cure her myself.离开，我会治好她的。

OrphiaI'll take care of this.这里由我来负责。

(The Niter turns to leave, but before she does, she gives Lenna and Orphia a stare and mutters something about God's mercy.)（妮特临走前，看了莱娜以及奥尔菲娅一眼，嘴里念叨着主的垂怜。）

(Orphia walks up to Isa, who has already turned into an ELID. She opens her pendant, causing gentle music to be played, and calms Isa down.)（奥尔菲娅走至已经生骸化的伊莎身旁，打开她身前的挂坠后，轻扬的音乐渐渐让伊莎冷静了下来。）

OrphiaIsa, look at me. Relax and imagine that you are on a boat, floating gently with the waves.伊莎，看着我，放松你的状态，想象你在一艘船上，跟着海浪一点点摇晃。

OrphiaThe waves softly lift you up, and all your pain is washed away with the ebbing tide.海浪把你静静地托起，所有的痛苦都将随着潮水散去。

LennaI think it's working!好像有用了！

LennaHow does this even work?这是什么原理。

OrphiaJust some hypnotic tricks. We have to leave fast. The Collapse radiation levels are too high here, so I can't stay for long.一些催眠小手段罢了，尽快离开这个地方，这里的坍塌辐射浓度太高了，我无法长期逗留。

LennaDr. Orphia, why are you here?奥尔菲娅医生，你怎么会在这里出现？

OrphiaIsa came here because a past patient of mine enticed her to.伊莎会来，是因为我过去患者的蛊惑。

OrphiaI've seen many patients with severe radiation sickness. Their only wish is to survive.我接手过很多辐射病后期的患者，他们唯一的心愿就是活下去。

OrphiaWith that in mind, it's simply not within my power to stop them from joining Paradeus.在这种情况下，我不可能，成功阻止他们进入帕拉蒂斯。

OrphiaI can only watch them descend slowly into the abyss, step by step.只能看着他们一点点坠入深渊。

LennaThis isn't your fault, Dr. Orphia.这不是奥尔菲娅医生的错。

OrphiaIf we listen to the rumors, Paradeus does seem like they're able to help these patients.听他们的传言，帕拉蒂斯确实有救助辐射病患者的办法。

OrphiaThat is why I'm here. I can't save everyone, but I can save some of them, like what I just did.这也是我在这里的原因，有我在至少能够救下部分病患，就像现在。

LennaYou shouldn't be here even if that's the case! It's too dangerous.那也不能来这里！太危险了。

LennaThe Collapse radiation levels here are so high that if you don't do anything to protect yourself, you'll get radiation sickness really soon.这里的坍塌辐射浓度那么高，医生你不做任何防护，迟早也会感染辐射病的。

OrphiaI'm willing to sacrifice my life if a cure for radiation sickness is found.如果能找到治疗辐射病的方式，就算付出我的生命也没有关系。

OrphiaLenna, do you know what it means to find a complete cure for this radiation sickness?莱娜，你知道如果能彻底治疗辐射病意味着什么吗？

LennaIt means that humankind will no longer suffer from this threat.大家就不用再接受生命的威胁了。

OrphiaThat's not the only payoff.不仅如此。

OrphiaResidents of the Yellow Zone will no longer have to sacrifice everything for a vaccine. People no longer have to bankrupt themselves just to scramble for a spot in the Green Zone.黄区的居民不再需要为购买疫苗倾尽一切，人们不再需要为了能争夺活在绿区的名额，而倾家荡产。

OrphiaMedical corporations will no longer be able to wring ordinary people dry with exorbitant healthcare costs. This world... will change into something completely different!医疗企业无法再用高昂的医疗费用逼垮平民，这个世界——会变得完全不一样！

Lenna...……

LennaB-but we can't rely on Paradeus to do this.可、可这些不能依靠帕拉蒂斯啊。

LennaBesides, from what I know about them, saving regular folk was never Paradeus' goal.况且，以我对帕拉蒂斯的了解，她们的目的从来都不是救助普通人。

OrphiaWhat they think is of no relevance to me.她们的想法，与我无关。

OrphiaI just have to find the method by which their "God" helps these patients.我只要找到神明能救助病患的真正方法即可。

OrphiaGod does not exist.神明并不存在。

OrphiaMan must craft with their own hands the key to a better world.人类，可以拥有改变一切困境的方式。

LennaI don't believe in Paradeus' so-called God either.我不相信帕拉蒂斯所谓的神明。

LennaThey're conducting research on fully-immune individuals.她们应该是在研究完全免疫体。

OrphiaFully-immune individuals?完全免疫体？

LennaYeah! They are fully immune to the effects of radiation.对！能够彻底免疫辐射的存在。

OrphiaLenna, I have never seen a fully-immune individual in all the years of my medical work.莱娜，在我从业的多年经验中，我从未见过完全免疫体。

OrphiaAll living organisms are affected by Collapse radiation, just that different organisms will have different levels of resistance, one factor being how strong a human's willpower is.所有生物都会被坍塌辐射影响，区别在于抵抗的能力以及人类的意志。

OrphiaI once did a comparative experiment where I gave patients some nutrient solution and told them that it was an anti-radiation medication.我曾做过对比实验，告知获得普通营养水的病患拿着的是抗辐射药物。

OrphiaThe result was that those who believed me really got better at resisting Collapse radiation.结果显示，那些相信的人类，真的能够抵抗部分坍塌辐射。

OrphiaAfter that, I obtained one of those Paradeus drugs from a patient and discovered an unknown ingredient within.后来，我又从病人获取的药剂中，发现了一种未知的成分。

OrphiaThe drug that Paradeus provides always contains this special ingredient. It seems to keep their followers safe.帕拉蒂斯提供的药剂中，一直存在特殊的原材料，以此来保证信徒的安危。

LennaA special ingredient?特殊的原材料？

OrphiaCorrect. I've managed to identify most of the ingredients via reverse engineering.对，通过逆向拆解，我已经能拆解出药剂的大部分原材料。

OrphiaJust a little more left to figure out...就只差……那么一点点了。

LennaWhat do you need to do to identify the special ingredient?可你应该怎么做？才能发现原料成分。

OrphiaI'll eventually manage to do that. I have time, Lenna.总能研究出那是什么的，我还有时间，莱娜。

OrphiaTake Isa and leave this place. She's in a terrible condition, so she can't stay here any longer.带着伊莎离开这里吧，她的情况不容乐观，无法再长期待在这个区域。

LennaWhat about you, Dr. Orphia?奥尔菲娅医生，你呢？

OrphiaI'll stay here to help my patients.我会留在这里，救助我的伤患。

OrphiaUntil I discover the ingredient that will save us all.直到，我研究出那一个能彻底拯救大家的原材料。

LennaI must leave with both of you.我会带着伊莎女士离开，包括奥尔菲娅医生。

LennaLeaving you here will expose you to an increased risk of contracting E.L.I.D.把你留在这里只会加重身体患病的风险。

LennaThe Commander has already destroyed Paradeus once. I don't believe that this place holds anything of value.指挥官摧毁过帕拉蒂斯，我不相信这个地方会有什么值得留恋。

OrphiaWe can find the cure to—这里能够找到治疗方法——

LennaSorry. I choose to believe in the Commander.抱歉，我选择相信指挥官。

LennaDr. Orphia, I won't leave you in this dangerous place no matter what you say.不管奥尔菲娅医生再怎么说，我也不会把你留在这个危险的地方的。

OrphiaThe Commander... Are you referring to your trusted companion?指挥官……那个让你信赖的同伴吗？

LennaWhatever the Commander does, he backs it up with good reason.指挥官做的事情，一定有原因。

LevaVector's team is on standby at the coordinates. The Commander's new mission for us is—to ensure the complete destruction of this Paradeus base, to prevent more people from becoming their test subjects.维克托小队已经待命，指挥官最新的任务是——彻底摧毁帕拉蒂斯据点，避免再度有平民成为帕拉蒂斯的试验品。

LennaHeheh, I'll make sure it's done.嘿嘿，保证完成任务。

LennaTime for us to go, Dr. Orphia. But let's make some chaos before we leave—我们该出发了奥尔菲娅医生，在走之前，大闹一场吧——

(At the same time, in the Black Hawk helicopter.)（同一时间，黑鹰内部。）

MechtyOne mission ends, and another starts... When are we going to have time to relax?出完一个任务就有下一个任务，什么时候才能轻松一点嘛。

AndorisLenna is on an infiltration mission by herself. She needs our help.莱娜一个人执行潜伏任务，需要我们的帮助。

AndorisI hope we can make it in time.希望能赶上。

MechtyDon't worry—When it comes to communicating with humans, Lenna is probably better at it than anyone.没关系的啦——从和人类沟通的角度而言，交给莱娜比交给任何人都靠谱吧。

MechtyIf Klukai had to do some infiltration mission or whatever, she'd probably kill anyone she dislikes.倒是如果是可露凯做什么潜伏任务，一定会把看不爽的人全都干掉。

KlukaiHmph. As if you would be able to do that on your own.哼，说得好像你能成功一样。

MechtyFine, fine—Communicating with humans is the most troublesome for us to deal with.是，是——和人类打交道的麻烦程度可是最高的。

MechtyMissions like these are much easier.还是执行任务更轻松。

BelkaAre we there yet?还没有到目的地吗？

BelkaWe can't lose to Lenna when she starts showing off in battle.莱娜在大展身手的时候，我们也不能落后啊。

MechtyLet me just tell you in advance that I have no intention of showing off.提前说明，我没有大展身手的必要。

MechtyThe Commander already said that our mission is to assist Vector's team in extracting Lenna and... the doctor she mentioned from the base.指挥官说了，我们的任务是配合维克托小队，将困在帕拉蒂斯据点内的莱娜还有……她提到的那个医生带走就好。

KlukaiNo slacking. Don't forget that one of our mission objectives is to destroy the Paradeus base.别偷懒，别忘了摧毁帕拉蒂斯据点也是任务目标之一。

MechtyThat mission is assigned to Vector's team; we're just here to help them out a little.那个是维克托她们的任务啦——我们只是顺便，顺便帮忙。

AndorisWe're approaching our destination. Searching for a landing site now.抵达目的地附近，正在寻找降落位置。

BelkaSeems to me that there aren't any reliable-looking landing sites.看起来，没有靠谱的停靠区域呢。

KlukaiLower our altitude and prepare for descent. We will engage the enemy in three minutes.压低黑鹰的高度，准备降落，三分钟后迎击敌人。

KlukaiComplete all your preparations.做好所有事前准备。

BelkaRoger that, Big Sis Klukai—遵命，可露凯姐姐——

MechtyAt this altitude?! Right now?!这个高度？！现在迫降？！

KlukaiGet on the bike. Now.上车，快点。

MechtyDon't tell me that you're going to ride your bike out of—别告诉我你要直接骑着摩托冲下去——

KlukaiHold on tight.抓紧了。

MechtyWaaaaAAAAAA—哇——啊——啊——啊——

KlukaiDo it.动手。

MechtyOkay, got it!是，是！

(The Black Hawk forcibly lowers its altitude. Its engine roar fills the entire Paradeus base.)（黑鹰强行降低了飞行高度，引擎所发出的巨大轰鸣声让帕拉蒂斯的据点内变得无比嘈杂。）

(Vector's team has already charged into the Paradeus base and engaged ELIDs in combat using the coordinates Lenna provided. Boojums are aplenty, while numerous E.L.I.D. infectees turn into ELIDs with every passing second.)（维克托小队已经根据莱娜所提供的坐标点冲入帕拉蒂斯据点与生骸们交战，伯介姆四处可见，不断有E.L.I.D.感染者转化为生骸。）

(A resounding rumble can be heard from the ceiling of the Paradeus base. The next moment it is completely gone.)（帕拉蒂斯巢穴上方传来巨大的轰鸣声，下一秒，天花板被彻底轰开。）

(Klukai descends from the sky on her bike. Her gunfire is accompanied by the roar of her engine, destroying all the Boojums in Lenna's vicinity.)（可露凯骑着摩托，从天而降，引擎轰鸣间，子弹齐射，将莱娜不远处的伯介姆统统摧毁。）

Moment of Intersection 交汇的瞬间

NiterYou who are not favored by God... You have no right to receive divine gifts.未被神明眷顾之人，无权……领受神恩。

LennaSorry. I'm not interested in your God.抱歉，抱歉，我对你们的神明不感兴趣。

LennaBefore you go preaching the existence of your God, first repent for those patients who lost their lives because they believed in you.在鼓吹神明的存在之前，先为因为相信你们而丢掉性命的患者忏悔吧。

NiterDarkness approaches. You have nowhere left to run.黑暗将至，你早已无处可逃。

LevaLenna, the enemy is gathering at your destination. Our teams will rendezvous with you in 60 seconds.莱娜，敌人正在往你的目标点集结，预计六十秒后队伍和你汇合。

LennaGot it. I'll be there...嗯嗯，抵达目标地点……

NiterSink into silence...沉寂吧……

LennaTwo, one... Push!二、一——碰——

(Lenna reaches her destination after following Leva's instructions. The dark tunnel looks like a dead end.)（莱娜根据莱娅的提示，抵达目标地点，昏暗的通道看上去像是一条死路。）

(The Niter and her forces approach, trying to seal off Lenna's retreat route.)（妮特渐渐靠近，试图将莱娜的退路堵上。）

(The ground next to them explodes the very next second. They are assaulted by a hail of gunfire.)（下一秒，她们身侧的一片土地被轰开后，大量子弹倾泻而至。）

WelrodThirty percent of the enemy forces have been eliminated.已经击毙大约30％的敌人。

LennaThanks for your hard work, everyone~辛苦啦，各位~

VectorWere we late?来晚了吗？

LennaNot at all—you came just at the right time.没有——现在正是最完美的时候。

VectorWe'll take care of things here. You should withdraw ASAP.这里交给我们就可以，尽快撤离。

LennaI'll leave it to you guys then. Preparing for exfil.拜托你们了，这就开始安排撤离。

WelrodWe can't completely destroy this Paradeus base with just our little squad alone.仅凭我们小队想要完全摧毁这个帕拉蒂斯据点就是天方夜谭。

WelrodWe'll have to call for support.应该进一步要求追加相关支援。

VectorI can do it.我会做到的。

WelrodWe shouldn't risk damaging our frames just to complete a mission.为了完成任务损害素体不值得。

HarpsyCollapse radiation levels here are extremely high, just like the place we first stopped at for our mission.这里现在的坍塌辐射浓度和我们之前抵达的那个位置一样，浓度极高。

HarpsyIt technically hasn't reached Red Zone levels yet, but... it's still really dangerous for us.虽然还没有彻底到达红区的水平，但……还是很危险。

RucheyI knew that you'd prioritize the condition of our frames, Welrod.我就知道维尔德一定会强调素体保养的事情啦。

RucheyWe'll probably be fine if we just do things quickly and leave, right?尽快撤离就不会有太大问题了吧。

WelrodThe commission rates for 404 aren't so high that we can easily cover four frame replacements.404的委托金还没多到让我们赔上四具素体的程度。

WelrodBesides, we aren't even requesting any payment for this mission.更别说，接这个任务我们根本没收钱。

VectorThis is a mission from the Commander...这是指挥官的任务……

RucheyWhich is why we're giving him special treatment~指挥官当然要安排特别优待啦~

WelrodThe need to protect our frames does not clash with our need to complete the mission.保护素体和完成任务并不冲突。

WelrodCalculating our team's return on investment, ensuring that all of us are kept safe... It's all part of my job scope.计算我们小队的投资回报率以及确保所有同伴的状态是我的工作之一。

RucheyDon't worry, Welrod~ We promise to take care of ourselves.放心~维尔德，我们一定保护好自己。

VectorI'll attract the enemy's attention. You guys flank them. Be quick.我去吸引敌人，你们包抄，加快速度。

RucheyIt'll be done!保证完成任务！

(Lenna quickly leads her group back to the Black Hawk with support from Vector's team.)（在维克托小队的支援下，莱娜很快带领众人撤退到黑鹰之上。）

(As the helicopter gains altitude and leaves the scene, Vector's team disengages from battle and leaves the Paradeus base.)（随着飞机彻底飞走，维克托小队也且战且退离开了帕拉蒂斯的巢穴。）

VectorCommander...指挥官……

WelrodKlukai has already met with the Commander, so there should be some wiggle room in the Agreement for us to do something as well.可露凯已经和指挥官碰过面，协议应该还有相应的操作空间。

HarpsyDoes that mean we could just visit him at any time, just like Klukai and the others?那岂不是我们也和可露凯她们一样，随时都可以去和指挥官相见？

VectorThe opportunity to do so will come.会有机会的。

KlukaiVector, how's your progress?维克托，进展怎么样。

VectorWe've successfully retreated. You can begin your attack at any time.已经撤离完毕，可以随时攻击。

KlukaiAndoris, do it.安朵丝，动手。

AndorisOkay.好的。

(Several missiles leave the Black Hawk's missile pods. The Paradeus base behind Vector burns down in a sea of flames soon after.)（数枚导弹从黑鹰的弹药舱中倾泻而出，不多久，维克托身后的帕拉蒂斯据点便在火海中熊熊燃烧。）

Underground Deal 地下交易

LennaThis is Isa, and this is Dr. Orphia.这位是伊莎，这位是奥尔菲娅医生。

LennaDr. Orphia's hospital has been treating severe E.L.I.D. infectees for a long time. It was with her help in the Paradeus base that Isa could be saved in time.奥尔菲娅医生负责的医院在黄区一直从事治疗重症E.L.I.D.患者的工作，这次在帕拉蒂斯内部，多亏她帮忙才及时治疗伊莎。

CommanderI see.嗯。

(I stare at the calm and composed doctor before me. Her gentle demeanor, judging solely by her appearance, suggests she is an empathic humanitarian who saves patients and detests the corrupt.)（我看着眼前身姿淡然的医生，对方的气质柔和，若是仅从外表判断，是一位悲天悯人救助患者的好人。）

(However, those able to stay in Paradeus cannot be completely clean.)（不过，能在帕拉蒂斯待着的人，怎么可能完全干净。）

(Unlike Lenna, who trusts this doctor, I hold only apprehension towards Paradeus.)（不同于莱娜对于眼前医生的信任，我心底只有对帕拉蒂斯势力的忌惮。）

OrphiaGreetings. I've heard about you from Lenna.您好。我从莱娜口中听过你的名讳。

OrphiaNice to meet you.很高兴能和你会面。

CommanderLet's dispense with the formalities.套近乎的话题就不必了。

CommanderIs the Phia Pharmaceutical factory a subsidiary under your control?菲尔娅医药厂是不是你旗下的股份？

OrphiaSorry. I don't understand what you mean.抱歉，我不明白你的意思。

CommanderYou just have to answer yes or no.只要回答是，还是不是即可。

(Before the Commander even finishes speaking, Groza and the other Dolls next to Orphia have already raised their weapons, ready for action.)（指挥官的话音未落，围在奥尔菲娅身边的闪电等人便已经举起枪械，严阵以待。）

OrphiaHaha... Commander... We've never met each other before. I don't think there's any need to welcome me with such a grand display.呵呵，指挥官……我们素未谋面，不必用这样的阵仗欢迎我吧。

OrphiaI'll answer your questions. Please put down your weapons.我会回答你的问题，请把枪放下。

IsaWho the hell are all of you?! What do you want?!你们这群人！究竟有什么目的。

IsaLet us go—放我们离开——

LennaThere must be some kind of misunderstanding.这里面一定有什么误会吧。

LennaIsa, please calm down for now. The doctor just treated you, so you shouldn't do anything to aggravate your symptoms.伊莎，你先冷静一下，医生刚治疗好了你。不要加重病情啊。

Isa...……

OrphiaLenna's right. Your body is still volatile, Isa. Don't get angry.莱娜说得没错，伊莎你现在的身体还不稳定，不要动怒。

KlukaiCome here, Lenna. Don't forget that the woman there can't even be considered human anymore.过来，莱娜。别忘了你旁边的早就不能被称为人类了。

(Lenna turns to look at Isa, who is wheezing. She manages one step away from Isa before she hears the latter start mumbling.)（莱娜转过身，看了眼正在喘息中的伊莎，她刚踏出一步便听到身后伊莎的喃喃自语。）

IsaLily... Lily... Don't leave me...莉莉——莉莉——不要离开我——

IsaNo... No...不要——不要——

(Orphia walks over to the curled-up body of Isa and starts gently patting her on the back.)（奥尔菲娅走到蜷缩着身躯的伊莎身旁，轻柔地拍着她的背部。）

OrphiaShe's not going anywhere, Isa.她不会离开的，伊莎。

OrphiaRelax...放轻松，放轻松……

LennaIsa nearly morphed into an inhuman shape back on the helicopter, but Dr. Orphia managed to bring her back from the brink.之前伊莎几乎失去人形，可在直升机上奥尔菲娅医生已经把她治好了。

CommanderThat's the problem.问题就在这里。

CommanderThe production of illegal vaccines requires raw materials and technical expertise. Few in the Yellow Zones possess such skill and knowledge.制造非法疫苗从原材料到技术手段缺一不可，在黄区能有这样技术水平的不多。

CommanderWith that established, a doctor who can treat E.L.I.D. this severe is practically unheard of.更别说拥有几乎能够医治E.L.I.D.患者的医师。

OrphiaThank you for the praise.谢谢您的夸奖。

CommanderFrom the data we've gathered through investigation, your vaccines contain active ingredients that are far better at treating patients than regular vaccines.从我们调查得到的数据中，你提供的疫苗成分，在治疗辐射病患者方面有着超越普通疫苗的效果。

OrphiaNo one has put out regulations stating that Yellow Zone doctors aren't allowed to develop vaccines better than Green Zone vaccines, I believe.没人规定，黄区的医生不可以研发出比绿区更有效的疫苗效果吧。

CommanderI might have believed you if you were just a normal doctor with no connections to Paradeus.如果你只是一个普通医生，并非和帕拉蒂斯有关的话，我也许还会相信你。

CommanderBut I have sufficient evidence to suspect that the vaccines you provide to patients contain unknown ingredients connected to Paradeus.但我有充分的证据怀疑你，在你为患者提供的药剂之中，掺杂了和帕拉蒂斯有关的未知成分。

Orphia...And where's this evidence of yours?……证据呢。

CommanderThe Paradeus drug that Lenna hid back at the gathering spot contained trace amounts of an unknown ingredient, but the same ingredient was also detected in both the vaccines you give to patients and the drugs that Paradeus provides.莱娜藏下的帕拉蒂斯药剂，虽然里面的不明成分极其微量，但相同的成分同时出现在了你给患者的疫苗和帕拉蒂斯提供的药剂之内。

LennaHow is that possible?!怎么会？！

LennaThe doctor may be part of Paradeus, but she's there because she wants to save people—医生她虽然在帕拉蒂斯内，但是为了救人——

LennaSorry...抱歉——

(Lenna now looks at Orphia with a bit more suspicion. She has heard Orphia speaking about her dreams before, and she conveyed it all to the Commander.)（莱娜看向奥尔菲娅的眼神里已经多了几分怀疑，她曾听过奥尔菲娅所说的梦想，并将这一切都告知了指挥官。）

(They both yearn to save the world and its people. These similarities between the Commander and Orphia have made Lenna subconsciously choose to believe in Orphia's words.)（拯救世界、拯救民众。和指挥官身上相似的特点，令她下意识选择相信奥尔菲娅所说的话。）

(But now, with the Commander speaking to Orphia in such an icy tone, Lenna could almost believe that Orphia might not be as innocent and friendly as she thought.)（但如今指挥官的语气是那么冰冷，几乎让她可以确信，奥尔菲娅并非是她所想象中的那么友善。）

OrphiaSince you've already checked the composition of both the vaccine and the drug, then you should have realized that the provider of the ingredient doesn't matter, as they are both medications capable of treating E.L.I.D. patients with severe symptoms.既然你已经检查过药剂的成分，那么应该能发现无论哪边提供的药剂，都是能治疗辐射重症患者的良药。

OrphiaAll this focus from the factory to the drugs... Heh. You seem to be highly curious about everything connected to me.从药厂到药剂……呵呵，关于我的事情，您似乎非常好奇呢。

CommanderIf the Varjagers can dedicate so much time to stealing raw materials on a regular basis, they must have a buyer for them.瓦良格帮能够长期掠夺疫苗原材料，一定是有下家会收购原材料。

CommanderAnd not only is this buyer able to produce vaccines using those materials, they also managed to drive the Varjagers towards rampant, uncontrolled robbery by buying raw materials at a high price from the black market.这个下家，不仅能够利用原材料制作疫苗，更通过黑市高价收购原材料的方式，推动瓦良格帮在黄区大肆掠夺原材料。

CommanderYou have never dirtied your own hands, but you pushed for all this to happen through your dealings with underground brokers.你虽未曾直接出手，但已经通过暗商的渠道推动了这一切的发生。

CommanderSuch methods... remind me heavily of the Conglomerate's methods.这样的手段，像极了财团的惯用手法。

OrphiaThe Conglomerate's methods? Sorry for saying this, but that comment disgusts me.财团？抱歉，这样的评价实在让我厌恶。

OrphiaVaccine prices skyrocketed before I started buying large amounts of raw pharmaceutical materials.疫苗价格的飞涨发生在我大规模收购医药原材料之前。

OrphiaThe Varjagers are willing to take on my missions because, unlike raw materials, vaccine shipments are escorted by Mangi Security, which they cannot win.瓦良格帮愿意接我的任务，也是因为正规疫苗后期有曼尼安保负责运送，他们的战斗力面对曼尼安保，将会落于下风。

OrphiaThey want to make money, and I want raw materials to make vaccines. We're just using each other.他们想要赚钱，而我想要原材料制作疫苗，各取所需罢了。

LennaWhy do you have to do this?为什么要这么做？

OrphiaBecause I want to save people.为了救人。

OrphiaPeople in the Yellow Zones cannot afford vaccines with the current sky-high prices. I can't just sit and watch as my patients slowly die while begging for my help. Only vaccines can save them.黄区的人根本购买不起如今的疫苗，我不能眼睁睁地看着那些向我祈求的病人们就这么死去。只有疫苗能够救助他们。

OrphiaThey lost some raw materials...? A small loss of this extent is no big deal for any corporation in the vaccine industry. Besides, most large corporations have insurance for this kind of thing.原料丢失……这点小损失对于任何研发疫苗的企业而言，并不昂贵。况且绝大部分大型企业，都会有保险负责理赔。

LennaNo... This isn't right at all!不对，这样根本不对！

Orphia...……

LennaAllowing the Varjagers to conduct widespread robberies would only make the lives of Yellow Zone residents more difficult.瓦良格帮在黄区大肆掠夺东西，只会让黄区居民生活得更加困难。

OrphiaSo the butterfly stirred up a storm, but how could I have known what this storm would ultimately become?蝴蝶掀起了风暴，而我又怎知风暴最终会变成什么样子。

CommanderYou've taken part in Paradeus' experiments too.你也参加了帕拉蒂斯的实验。

OrphiaIt seems to me that you and Lenna are full of hate towards Paradeus.无论是莱娜还是您，似乎都对帕拉蒂斯充满厌恶。

OrphiaTo me, Paradeus is a place where I can fulfill my wish to save everyone. I will continue to collaborate with them until I find a complete cure for E.L.I.D.对我而言，那里有我拯救大家的希望，在我能找到彻底治愈患者的方法前我仍然会和他们保持合作。

CommanderCollaborate?合作？

CommanderThat is no collaboration. You are complicit in a scheme that helps drag more people into the abyss.那并非合作，只是将更多人拖入深渊罢了。

(It's been so many years, but Paradeus is still around. The doctor does not seem to know about Paradeus' true plans.)（那么多年过去，帕拉蒂斯依旧存在，眼前的医生似乎全然不知晓帕拉蒂斯的真正阴谋。）

(Relics... Fully-immune individuals... Their existence bestows Paradeus a chance at grasping absolute power.)（遗迹、完全免疫体，它们的存在给了帕拉蒂斯能够拥有绝对力量的可能性。）

(Even the military is still infested with a significant faction that attempts to gain power and control through collaborative partnerships with Paradeus.)（即便是军方内部，仍然存在一股不小的势力妄图通过合作的方式，通过帕拉蒂斯进一步掌控力量。）

CommanderParadeus is able to infest and spread like wild grass precisely because of intermediaries and channels like you.帕拉蒂斯就是通过你这样的渠道，如同野草般，不断蔓延。

CommanderI have destroyed Paradeus once. I'll do it again.我能摧毁帕拉蒂斯一次，就能摧毁帕拉蒂斯第二次。

IsaGo away—滚开——

(Isa has lost her grip on reality, now unable to determine friend from foe. She seems more like a Boojum that destroys all rather than a regular ELID.)（失去意识的伊莎早已分辨不清敌我，与生骸不同的是如今她的外在更像是能够摧毁一切的伯介姆。）

(The Elmo, still on the move, suddenly suffers an impact. Isa takes this opportunity to grab Dr. Orphia and Lenna before running away.)（正在行驶的艾莫号猛然遭受冲击，伊莎正是借着这个契机将奥尔菲娅医生以及莱娜带走。）

GrozaCommander, we are surrounded by ELIDs attacking the Elmo.指挥官，四周有大量生骸袭击我们车辆。

CommanderPrepare for battle.准备迎敌。

Underground Deal 地下交易

LennaOrphia, what do you really want?奥尔菲娅，你究竟想要什么？

LennaDid you already know that Isa would become like this?伊莎会有现在的情况，是不是你早就知道了。

OrphiaSince your Commander is interested in the Phia Pharmaceutical factory, then let him meet me there.既然你的指挥官对菲尔娅医药厂感兴趣，那么就让他去那边见我吧。

OrphiaMy production line is there.那里有我的生产线。

OrphiaIf he is willing to collaborate with me, I'm willing to give him most of my profits.倘若他愿意合作，我愿意让出绝大部分的利益。

LennaCollaborate?合作？

OrphiaYes. I've always been making illegal vaccines, but buying raw materials from official channels was extremely costly. Whenever I sold them to my patients, I was always making a loss.嗯，一直以来我都会私下制作非法疫苗，从正规渠道获取原材料的成本过高，卖给我的患者，几乎是赔本生意。

OrphiaIn order to balance out my spending, I would make some vaccines of normal effectiveness and sell them to underground brokers.为了平衡开支，我也会做一些效果没那么强的普通疫苗，交由暗商处理。

OrphiaBut overall, I've never sold vaccines at prices that could be considered high.但总体而言，我都没有收取过高的价格。

OrphiaIf I wanted to be rich, I could just raise the prices, but that would result in more residents being unable to afford vaccines.倘若想要赚取财富，我大可以提高疫苗的价格，但那会导致更多的居民无法支付疫苗费用。

OrphiaThere IS a way to achieve profits without increasing vaccine prices, and that is through mass production.不提高疫苗价格仍然有赚取财富的机会，那就是扩大生产规模。

OrphiaAnd that, will require the backing of a powerful armed force.而这，需要绝对强大的武力支持。

Lenna...……

OrphiaWhat do you think, Commander...您觉得如何？指挥官……

CommanderNot interested.没有兴趣。

OrphiaThere is no need to rush your decision. I will be waiting for you to visit my factory in person.不必贸然下定论，我会在医药厂等待您亲自拜访。

OrphiaOther than my factory, I also have some lab reports from Paradeus... which you might be interested in.除了医药厂，我还有在帕拉蒂斯内的部分实验报告，也许……你会感兴趣。

DandelionInternal lab reports from Paradeus? I'm interested in what she just said.帕拉蒂斯内部的实验报告吗？我对她口中的这个情报很感兴趣。

KlukaiWe saw the biopods from Lenna's pictures while we were clearing out the Paradeus base.清扫帕拉蒂斯据点的时候，我们有看到莱娜提供的照片中的生物舱。

KlukaiIf we could get our hands on the relevant lab reports, we might be able to uncover the secrets behind Helena and Melanie.如果拿到相关实验报告，也许我们能找到海伦娜和梅兰妮身上的秘密。

ColphneA collaboration...?合作……

CommanderI won't collaborate with her without a strong reason.不会和她轻易合作的。

ColphneCommander.指挥官。

CommanderI know your hate towards Paradeus, even though some of their followers are only there to ensure their survival.我知道你和帕拉蒂斯之间的仇恨，即便那些追随者有部分是为了生存。

CommanderYet, despite any excuse, their actions still result in more and more people being dragged into the abyss.但他们的行为还是在将越来越多的人拽入深渊。

CommanderMelanie once mentioned that Paradeus is turning humans into Boojums through experimentation, then using them to take control of Boojums.梅兰妮曾经提过，帕拉蒂斯通过实验将人类转化为伯介姆，并进一步依靠他们来控制伯介姆。

CommanderNow, the intelligence that Lenna gathered shows us that Paradeus is treating infectees and enticing doctors to join in order to collect large numbers of the infected for use in experiments.而莱娜提供的情报中，帕拉蒂斯通过治疗病患，蛊惑医生的方式，收集大量重症患者用于实验研究。

CommanderA drug that could completely cure and prevent E.L.I.D... If something like that appeared in the Yellow, Green, and even White Zones...能彻底抵御辐射病、治疗身体的药剂……倘若这样的药剂出现在黄区、绿区、乃至白区……

DandelionHeheh. Countless forces would swarm towards that like ducks to water.哼哼，将会有无数人对此趋之若鹜。

(A theory is taking form in the depths of my mind. If my guess is true... I'm afraid that the Paradeus of today has already taken root deep within the entire system like a tree of darkness, its fungus-like roots deep in numerous factions.)（我的心底已经隐约出现了一种猜测，若这种猜测是真的，恐怕……如今的帕拉蒂斯已经成为根植于整个体系之下的阴暗之树，根系遍布诸多阵营。）

CommanderMangi Security. The vaccine.曼尼安保、疫苗。

DandelionPerhaps many would wish to conduct biological experiments of their own with Paradeus' help...如果是用帕拉蒂斯的势力达成生物实验……

CommanderRight, and Paradeus' E.L.I.D. treatment drugs would be enticing to them as well.没错，亦或是从帕拉蒂斯的手里获得能治疗辐射病的药剂。

CommanderNo matter which is the case, the benefits from partnering with Paradeus are enough to stir many factions into action.无论哪一种情况，这其中的利益，都足以撬动多方势力了。

DandelionParadeus could rise quickly with any sort of proper financial or political support.商业或者政治上的支援，任何一种都能让帕拉蒂斯快速崛起。

Commander...……

(If the world is like this, destroying Paradeus bases would do nothing to stop them.)（这样的情况仅靠摧毁帕拉蒂斯的据点毫无作用。）

(Just how many factions consort with Paradeus? High-level government officials, the conglomerates...)（有多少势力在和帕拉蒂斯合作？政府高层、财团势力……）

(Even without those troubles, am I, in my current state, still capable of completely destroying Paradeus again?)（仅凭现在的我，真的能够再度完全摧毁帕拉蒂斯吗？）

ColphneWe should talk to that doctor about the collaboration.我们去和那个医生聊合作。

(Colphne bites her lips, forcibly suppressing her hate towards Paradeus. Without enough intel, perhaps a short-term collaboration is the last resort, but one that she has to accept.)（寇尔芙咬紧她的嘴唇，强压下心中对帕拉蒂斯的愤恨，在没有足够多的情报下，也许短暂的合作是她不得不接受的下下之策。）

ColphneWe can only uncover the secrets behind Helena and Melanie's bodies if we gather enough intelligence.只要有更多情报，我们就可以搞清楚海伦娜以及梅兰妮身上的秘密。

ColphneWe'll also get to know which factions are collaborating with Paradeus.还能知道，帕拉蒂斯到底在和哪些势力合作。

CommanderYou don't have to force yourself, Colphne.不必强迫自己，寇尔芙。

CommanderWe will eventually get the intel we need. There are numerous other ways through this.情报，我们会拿到的，有很多方式获取。

CommanderI will never collaborate with Paradeus... even if it's just to gather intel.我永远都不可能和帕拉蒂斯合作，哪怕……是为了获取情报。

KennyAdjutant, we have successfully sold our batch of vaccines with the help of underground brokers.副官，我们手里的那一批疫苗已经成功通过暗商销售掉了。

KennyThe raw materials, too, have found a buyer. Team Alpha is currently transporting them to their destination.医疗原材料也已经达成交易，正在由Alpha小队运送到目的地。

LentineWell done. We'll bring everyone together for a nice meal somewhere once the money is in.干得不错，资金入账之后带着大家去吃顿好的。

LentineGo urge the management about the payments. They called us in for support, so there is no reason they should avoid paying our deployment fee.催一下上面的经费，既然都已经让我们支援了，没道理，不给我们出场费。

KennyGot it.是。

KennyI think Lonnie is already suspecting us of selling that batch of vaccines.朗尼那边，好像已经在怀疑那批疫苗是我们售出的。

KennyHe flew into a rage.发了好大一通火。

LentineConglomerate-connected people like him put mission completion above all.对他那种财团背景的人而言，完成任务，比什么都重要。

LentineHe's the ultimate beneficiary of all missions, after all.毕竟最后能有巨大收益的还是他。

LentineLonnie lost quite a large number of his subordinates during the recent mission.朗尼在这次任务里面，损失了不少部下。

LentineHe'll probably put in a request to hire more people again. Me? I'll be putting in a request for a batch of... Doll subordinates.应该会申请再次招募成员，我也会申请一波……人形下属。

KennyAdjutant, haven't you always viewed those Dolls as unreliable and untrustworthy?副官，你不是向来不相信那些人形的吗？

KennyIt's quite the surprise to hear that you're requesting to add Dolls to our formation without anyone forcing you.真意外，你竟然会主动要求增加人形加入我们的队伍。

LentineWho knows if those Dolls have backdoors installed in them?谁知道那些人形里面会不会被植入了什么后门。

LentineI haven't forgotten what happened in the past, let me tell you that.过去的事，我可一点都没敢忘。

LentineRemind everyone early that Dolls are just Dolls, just tools we use in our jobs.提前和大家打好招呼，人形只是人形，执行工作的工具罢了。

LentineTell them not to worry about getting replaced. I do not have plans to replace human subordinates with Dolls.不必担心各自的岗位，我没有用人形替代人类下属的打算。

KennyUnderstood.是。

(Lentine opens up Mangi Security's database once Kenny leaves.)（柯尼离开后，兰汀打开了曼尼安保的资料库。）

(A dense array of Doll profiles are displayed before Lentine, each with different descriptions of their status. Lentine's fingertip traces the screen till she reaches a particular Doll's profile.)（密密麻麻的人形资料后，跟着不同的描述状态，兰汀的指尖一路下滑，直到某个人形的资料。）

Lentine(Griffin...)（格里芬……）

Lentine(The Lullaby...)（摇篮曲……）

(Decade-old memories resurface within her mind. Lentine is reminded of the man who left Griffin all those years ago. It's been a long time since she last saw him, yet one thing remains unchanged: he still possesses exceptional mastery over commanding Dolls in combat.)（接近十年前的记忆恍然间再度浮现在脑海之中，兰汀想起那个从格里芬离开的男人，多年不见，他还是一如往常，对人形有着极强的把控力。）

(Her fingertip touches the screen. A particular Doll, marked as abandoned within Mangi Security's database, has been added to Lentine's request list for Dolls.)（指尖轻触屏幕，曼尼安保的资料库中，某个标注为已废弃的人形被兰汀申请加入她所在的小队。）

Pathway to Dreams 通往梦想的道路

OrphiaElinda, prepare to transfer the drugs stored in the factory's underground level.艾琳达，转移医药厂地下现在存储的药剂。

ElindaUnderstood. How much should we transfer?是。转移多少呢？

OrphiaAll of it. The location of the base has been exposed. Use the underground passage and ensure that all the drugs are transferred to our backup safehouse.全部。据点的位置已经暴露，从地下通道走，尽快确保所有药剂转移到备用安全屋。

ElindaWhat happened?到底发生了什么事？

ElindaFirst you snuck away, now you want to transfer all of the factory's drugs away...先是姐姐你偷偷离开，现在又要彻底转移药厂的药剂……

ElindaAnd why is that Doll taking my place by your side, sister?而且为什么在姐姐身边的不是我，而是这家伙啊——

Lenna...……

OrphiaHaha, you mean Lenna? Lady Isa "invited" her here.呵呵，莱娜吗？她是被伊莎女士“邀请”来的。

OrphiaShe's a necessary guest as we will soon be welcoming more visitors.是欢迎即将到访的客人，必须邀请的存在。

LennaYou wanted to discuss a collaboration with the Commander, yet you told Elinda to hide the bargaining chips used for the deal.你想要和指挥官谈合作，却安排艾琳达把用于交易的筹码搬走。

OrphiaWell... I'm not as well-armed as the Commander you revere, after all.毕竟……我手里可不像你提到的指挥官大人，拥有这么强的武力。

OrphiaIf he threatens to kill me, I would have no way to resist if I didn't move the drugs away.如果他威胁我的生命，我将没有任何反抗的方式。

ElindaSister, don't do anything stupid...姐姐，你别做傻事。

OrphiaGo move the vaccines, Elinda.快去转移好那些疫苗。艾琳达。

OrphiaIf your Commander agrees to work with me, these vaccines will be my first token of gratitude for the collaboration.如果指挥官同意和我合作，那么疫苗就是我为合作献上的第一份礼物。

(Within the Elmo's ops room.)（艾莫号的指挥室内。）

GrozaCommander, we've received a comms request.指挥官，收到了通讯请求。

OrphiaSo you've arrived, my guests. Why hesitate at the door?客人既然到了，为何还在犹豫呢？

KrolikWho knows what kind of tricks you're planning for us?谁知道你会不会耍什么花样。

OrphiaI believe that I'm supposed to be the one fearing for my safety.我想需要担心安危的人是我才对。

OrphiaTo ensure fairness at the negotiating table, I only invited you, Commander, as the sole guest. Please do not bring in anyone uninvited.为了确保合作的公平性，我只邀请指挥官您作为客人，请不要带上没有被邀请的客人。

GrozaCommander, we...指挥官，我们……

CommanderI'll meet you in person.我会亲自登门拜访的。

(After ending the call, the Elmo falls into silence for a while.)（结束通讯后，艾莫号上沉寂了许久。）

KlukaiCommander... Even if you agreed to meet her alone, you don't really have to keep that promise.指挥官……就算答应对方单枪匹马见面，也不意味着真需要这么做吧。

MechtyKlukai must be planning to sneak in and follow the Commander.可露凯是打算偷偷跟在指挥官身后潜入进去嘛。

MechtyHow perv—Ow.感觉很变——好疼。

KlukaiStop blabbering about weird things.少说奇怪的话。

KlukaiWe'll be on standby outside. If anything seems wrong, don't hesitate to call us in.我们会在外部同步待机，一旦情况不对，随时支援。

Groza...……

GrozaSame here.我也是。

(I walk into the Phia Pharmaceutical factory. The place is cleaner than I thought.)（步入菲尔娅医药厂，这里比我想象的更为干净。）

(A conveyor belt enters my view. It is working at full power, continuously producing drugs.)（入眼处的传送带此刻正全力运转，不断制作着药剂。）

OrphiaWould you like a tour around the factory, Commander?有兴趣和我一起参观一下工厂吗，指挥官。

OrphiaThis factory utilizes machinery to achieve total automation. The drugs are produced in a fully enclosed environment throughout the whole manufacturing process, where upon completion, the drugs are transported to an underground warehouse.这家工厂主要采用机械进行自动化生产，全程封闭生产药剂，生产完毕后的药剂将通过传送通道，运送到地下仓储室。

OrphiaEven if regular robbers or Varjagers happen to break in here, they will face a stopped production line and gain nothing.即便有普通人或者瓦良格之类的匪帮误入此处，面对停滞的生产线也将会一无所获。

CommanderAnd unless absolutely necessary, you wouldn't even need to activate the factory's security systems most of the time.在非必要的情况下，你甚至无需启动安保机械。

OrphiaThis factory is located far away from any Yellow Zone settlements, and there aren't any basic amenities or shelters nearby. So... people rarely venture into this region at all. It's safe enough.此处并非平民生活的根据地，更毫无基本的生活设施，所以……很少会有陌生人来到这片区域，足够安全。

OrphiaIf I operate this factory at full capacity, I will be producing enough vaccines to significantly impact vaccine prices in the Yellow Zones.产线全开的情况下，我将有充足的把握，制造出对整个黄区疫苗价格产生冲击的疫苗数量。

CommanderWhat do you really want?你想要的究竟是什么。

CommanderYou can collaborate with Paradeus and justify it with the excuse of vaccine development, but if your illegal vaccine production lines attract attention, it will result in numerous factions showing up and plundering what you have.和帕拉蒂斯合作尚且能用研发疫苗作为借口，制作非法疫苗，一旦被盯上，等待你的一定是其他势力的掠夺。

OrphiaCorrect. That is why I carefully tune the output, and why I only sell to select clients. I try to be as low-profile as possible.是啊，所以我小心控制产量，筛选客人，从来都不敢过于高调。

OrphiaBut now... I see an opening.但现在……我看到了机会。

OrphiaYou have connections to the upper echelons in the Green Zones, a massive number of T-Dolls at your command, and a steed akin to a mobile fortress.和绿区的高层有所关联，又能拥有庞大的战斗人形数量，以及如同移动堡垒般的载具。

OrphiaYou're definitely not just some random person.普通人？绝对算不上吧。

OrphiaI've treated many retired soldiers. They gave their life to service, most of them saving a large number of regular folk through their work.我治疗过很多退役的士兵，那些人将人生都用于了任务，或多或少都曾救助过不少普通人。

OrphiaBut once they retire, they suffer from radiation sickness and steep medical bills, utterly shattering their dignity.可在他们退役之后，让人痛苦的辐射病、高昂的医疗费，几乎将他们的尊严彻底击溃。

OrphiaThose conglomerates manipulate vaccine prices and collude with satellite city governments to issue strict directives on vaccine distribution and use, driving people of the Yellow Zones against the wall again and gain.若不是那些财团操控疫苗价格，联合卫星城的政权下达有关疫苗注射的严格指令，黄区的人，又怎会一次又一次被逼上绝路。

CommanderYou want to disrupt the state of satellite cities with your vaccines?你想用疫苗冲击现有的卫星城规则？

OrphiaIf we want to change this world, we must first become its rulers.想要改变这个世界，只有成为这个世界的掌权者才行。

OrphiaThere is no reason for us not to collaborate. I'll provide vaccines and sponsor your election campaign in a satellite city.我们完全可以合作，由我出资疫苗，赞助你参与卫星城竞选。

OrphiaGaining control of a satellite city would allow one to save many lives.只要能获得卫星城的管理权，就相当于可以救下一大群人。

OrphiaPolicies that benefit Yellow Zone residents would increase their willingness to relocate to satellite cities. With enough material and immaterial resources, we'll be able to take the next step...有利于黄区居民的政策将会最大程度让黄区居民愿意移居到卫星城，只要卫星城有足够的实力，就可以继续往下走——

CommanderPolitical institutions...政权体系……

(The mere mention of it makes my stomach churn. Back in Griffin, everyone was simply a pawn of somebody above them.)（回想到这个词，我只觉得反胃感油然而生。在格里芬的时候，所有人不过是上面人的棋子。）

(Despite the illegality of Paradeus' experiments, a good number of factions in the URNC are still willing to support the next step of their research for their own benefit.)（即便帕拉蒂斯的实验非法，可为了各自的利益，在罗联之中仍然有不少势力，支持他们进一步研究。）

(I stare at the young lady before me. Her eyes are brimming with tears, as if she's really sincerely beseeching me to accept her proposal.)（我看向面前的少女，她双眼含泪，似乎真的在恳请我能接受她的提议。）

(Would I go back to the URNC? If I agreed with the URNC's choice back then, I wouldn't have chosen to leave on my own.)（回去？倘若当年我能认可罗联的选择，也不会主动选择离开。）

OrphiaAre you willing to collaborate with me?你愿意和我合作吗？

OrphiaVaccines are not only capable of being the key to everyone's health, they also serve as the essential stepping stone towards the pinnacle of power!疫苗不仅仅是守护大家生命的基石，更是踏上权力顶峰必须具备的重要材料！

OrphiaOur vaccines will earn us votes and allow us to help even more people.我们能用疫苗换到选票，去救助更多的人。

CommanderI will not collaborate with any faction or power connected to Paradeus.我拒绝和任何与帕拉蒂斯有关的势力合作。

OrphiaWhy? Perhaps you think that those biological experiments are inhumane, but all the participants have been willing volunteers.为什么？你也许觉得那些生物实验不人道，可、所有实验者都是自愿的。

CommanderThey are never willing volunteers.从来都没有自愿。

CommanderNot the Unitates that Paradeus exploits, nor the quasi-fully-immune individuals they create.无论是被帕拉蒂斯迫害的徒从，还是他们研发出的不完全免疫体。

CommanderNone of them are willing sacrifices.没有任何人是自愿成为牺牲品的。

OrphiaChoice... has always been a privilege of those who can afford it.选择……本就是一种奢侈的存在。

OrphiaThere are few paths presented to Yellow Zone residents. Choosing the most hopeful of them would at least help such individuals not die in despair.摆在黄区居民面前的道路，本就寥寥无几，从中选择较为有希望的一条路，至少不会在绝望中死去。

CommanderLooks like you've been completely brainwashed by Paradeus as well.看来，你也被帕拉蒂斯彻底洗脑了。

OrphiaWe simply use each other. I need them, which is why I collaborate with them.只是利用关系罢了，我需要他们，所以才会合作。

OrphiaIf Paradeus did not exist to provide patients with severe symptoms a glimpse of hope, those hopeless infectees could be heading to their ends in countless other ways.如果没有帕拉蒂斯给予重症患者最后一丝希望，那些绝望的病人能有无数种走向终局的方式。

OrphiaAt least with Paradeus around, they have a glimmer of hope to hold on to, an idea that they might survive.帕拉蒂斯至少给了他们一个念想，一个能活下去的念想。

CommanderA storm stops for no one. Paradeus views life as an ant that they would gladly trample countless times.风暴从来不会停止。帕拉蒂斯视生命为蝼蚁，践踏一切。

CommanderThey don't simply wish to control Boojums. Their ultimate goal is to unlock Relics.他们的目的不仅是控制伯介姆，更是为了更深层地打开遗迹。

Orphia...……

CommanderThe power hidden within Relics is so great that every faction would make a mad dash to grab it for themselves.遗迹之中所蕴藏的力量，足够让所有势力都趋之若鹜。

CommanderEnd your partnership with Paradeus and give all your collected evidence to me.结束和帕拉蒂斯的合作，把所有证据都给我。

CommanderIf you do that, I might actually let you live.这样，我还可能放过你一条命。

OrphiaLet me live?放过我？

Orphia(Laughs) There's something I wish to achieve through Paradeus. I'm not going to leave.哈哈哈哈，帕拉蒂斯有我追求的目标，我是不可能离开这里的。

CommanderParadeus' goal isn't to save the world at all.帕拉蒂斯的目的根本不在于拯救世人。

CommanderEven if you pour everything you have into research, you won't gain anything.即便你倾尽一切尝试研究，也不会有任何收获。

CommanderYou'll simply lose more and more of your humanity in that cannibalistic organization.只会在这个吃人的组织内，变得越发丧失人性。

CommanderThe conglomerates collaborate with Paradeus, but they could also end that partnership at any moment.财团能和帕拉蒂斯合作，也能随时随地结束合约关系。

OrphiaYou seem to be worried about my safety.听上去，你会担心我的安危。

CommanderI'm simply taking pity on a soul doomed to be consumed by Paradeus.我只是在怜悯，一个注定会被帕拉蒂斯吞没的灵魂。

CommanderIn order to gather intel, you'd do everything that Paradeus wants you to do, and eventually you'll give more and more of yourself to them.为了获取情报，你实现帕拉蒂斯的一切要求，你陆续将一切献给帕拉蒂斯。

CommanderIn their eyes, you're simply a pawn that could be discarded at any moment.在帕拉蒂斯眼里，你也不过是可以随时被放弃的棋子罢了。

Orphia...……

CommanderChoosing to die for your ideals isn't wrong, but you've chosen the wrong path.你选择为了理想而死没有错，错的是选择的道路。

CommanderYou should really leave Paradeus. That is my final piece of advice.离开帕拉蒂斯吧，这是对你的最后忠告。

OrphiaAnd what am I going to do after I leave? Are you going to provide me with the same amount of research resources and facilities that Paradeus gives, alongside a sufficient number of willing test subjects?离开后又能怎么样呢？难道您能为我提供对应的实验资源以及自愿参与实验的人？

CommanderThe patients whom you persuaded to join Paradeus already had their lives ruined beforehand.那些被你鼓动加入帕拉蒂斯的病人，他们的人生早就被毁了。

OrphiaI had no choice.我根本没有选择。

OrphiaWhat am I going to do, join a group of medical corporations and force even more Yellow Zone residents into a mad scramble for vaccines through high vaccine prices?加入医药集团用高昂的价格压迫更多黄区居民为疫苗拼尽一切？

OrphiaI want to change this world for the better, but I have no other way to go about it.即便我想要去改变这个世界，也没有任何的办法。

OrphiaAt least Paradeus provides me with resources and power.帕拉蒂斯，至少能让我拥有力量和资源。

CommanderThe path of complicity is one with no future. You should look for a new path.同流合污没有未来，就该找寻新的路。

CommanderWe're not too different... I too, once thought that I was in an organization with the power to change everything.我也曾以为……身居在一个可以改变一切的组织之内。

CommanderBut the closer I got to power, the less control I had over myself.越是接近权力核心，就越是身不由己。

CommanderOne must abandon certain things to climb higher. They must also accept that they have to exploit others, and be exploited in turn.想要往上走就必须放弃某些东西，也要接受被利用，以及利用别人。

CommanderIt was not a future I wished for myself.这样的未来，并非是我期待的。

CommanderWhich was why I left everything behind. I spent so much time trying to find... a completely new path.所以我离开了，用了很多时间尝试去找出……一条全新的道路。

OrphiaDid you manage to find it?现在的你，找到了吗？

(Orphia grabs my hand. Her eyes reflect a mixture of hopefulness and pain, as if I might be able to show her a new ray of light.)（奥尔菲娅抓住我的手，眼里夹杂着期待以及痛苦，就好像，这一刻我能给她带来新的光明。）

Commander...……

(I was no longer able to position myself away from the maelstrom once I found out about Paradeus' return.)（从我发现帕拉蒂斯死灰复燃的那一刻起，我便再也不可能置身事外。）

(I do not know how many factions have connected themselves with Paradeus for the sake of conducting experiments, but there might be similar things happening elsewhere throughout the Yellow Zones.)（我不知道帕拉蒂斯为了实验和多少势力勾结在了一起，在黄区别的区域也许还有相似的情况。）

(A promised cure used to lure desperate people in, brainwashing them into Paradeus Unitates.)（用治疗当作借口，不断吸引那些想要活下去的普通人彻底沦为帕拉蒂斯的徒从。）

(It doesn't matter how many factions are backing Paradeus. I'll crush them one by one.)（无论帕拉蒂斯如今牵扯到多少资助它们的势力，我都会将它们彻底击溃。）

CommanderAt the moment... not yet.目前……还没有。

OrphiaHaha...呵呵……

(Orphia is laughing, but tears are flowing down her cheeks.)（奥尔菲娅虽然在笑着，可泪水顺着她的眼角滑落。）

OrphiaThen... please keep going. I want to see... the other path that you talked about.那么，请坚持下去，我想看到，你口中所说的……另外一条道路。

GrozaCommander, do you read me?指挥官，能听到我的声音吗？

GrozaA large force of Boojums is heading towards the pharmaceutical factory. We'll try to intercept. Please stay safe—有大量伯介姆向药厂方向赶来。我们会尝试将它们拦下，请注意安全——

(Sounds of gunfire mixed with the roars of Boojums are emitted from my communicator. I look at Orphia, whose face is frozen in terror.)（通讯器内传来交火的枪械声以及伯介姆的吼声，我看向奥尔菲娅，此刻她的脸上满是惊恐。）

LennaWatch out!小心！

(A Boojum bellows, charging towards me and Orphia. Lenna's gunfire repels the Boojum, but Orphia stops Lenna from continuing her attack.)（伯介姆咆哮着冲向我和奥尔菲娅，莱娜的子弹刚击退伯介姆，奥尔菲娅便阻止莱娜继续攻击。）

OrphiaIsa... Calm down...伊莎——冷静一点——

(The ground is shaking. The roars come not only from outside, but also from the underground.)（地面在颤动，咆哮声不仅是从外面传来的，而且还有地底。）

CommanderYou hid Boojums in your basement?!你在地下藏了伯介姆？！

OrphiaNo, they were patients who could have been saved.不，他们之前还是有救的患者。

Orphia(Coughs)咳、咳、咳……

ElindaSister!! What the hell have you done to her?!姐姐！！你们这些家伙，究竟做了什么？！

(Elinda arrives in a hurry, only to see Orphia cough up blood and fall to the ground.)（艾琳达匆忙赶到，看到的便是咳血的奥尔菲娅踉跄摔倒在地。）

(An ear-splitting alarm starts blaring throughout the factory. Sounds of gears turning can be heard from the originally sealed floor.)（整个工厂都响起巨大的警报声，原本封闭的地面下此刻发出齿轮旋转的声响。）

OrphiaCollapse radiation levels are probably spiking... They've found us.坍塌辐射浓度应该在快速上涨……是她们发现这里了。

Pathway to Dreams 通往梦想的道路

GrozaCommander, we've eliminated the first batch of Boojums.指挥官，第一批伯介姆已经被清理完毕。

GrozaThere are still a number of Boojums heading towards the factory—目前还有伯介姆往药厂方向——

MechtyWow—There are more enemies inside than outside.哇——里面敌人的数量比外面还多。

MechtyWhy are they crawling out from the ground? Is this some kind of Boojum nest?怎么还是从地下爬上来的啊。这里难道是什么伯介姆的巢穴吗？

KlukaiFocus fire on the Boojums.集中火力攻击。

OrphiaStop! They are my patients. I can save them!住手，他们都是我的病患。我能救下他们。

ColphneI don't believe they can be saved in their current state.我不认为它们现在的状态还有救助的可能性。

OrphiaTheir minds are still intact... They can be controlled.它们还存在意志……能够被控制。

MaylingCommander—Melanie is suddenly in a really bad state.指挥官——梅兰妮的情况突然变得很糟糕。

MelanieNo, don't call me...不要、不要呼唤我——

MelanieIt hurts, get out of my head! I don't want to hear it!好痛苦，从我的脑子里出去。我不想听。

CommanderMayling, take the Elmo and drive it out of this region.美玲，驾驶艾莫号离开这片区域。

MelanieDon't come any closer... Be quiet...不要过来——安静——

MaylingBut...可是。

CommanderDo it ASAP. Get Melanie out of here.速度越快越好，让梅兰妮离开这里。

MaylingGot it, Commander.我知道了，指挥官。

NemesisWinds of the past... Here to claim reign...昔日之风……君临……

KrolikParadeus forces are nearby!帕拉蒂斯的势力，就在这附近！

NytoThose who betray and destroy our God's realm must pay.摧毁吾主之地的背叛者，将付出代价。

OrphiaShe's holding a Collapse crystal that accelerates the formation of Boojums! We have to stop her!她手里是激化伯介姆生成的坍塌结晶！不能让她动手！

(The Boojums inside the factory charge at the Nyto with a roar. The Nyto stops her actions and stares at Orphia with a blank expression.)（药厂内的伯介姆在嘶吼声中向着妮特奔去，妮特停下动作，面无表情地看着奥尔菲娅。）

NytoYou dare corrupt the scepter of God?你竟妄图沾染，神明的权杖。

Forged Choice 开辟而出的选择

???Hahahaha! How interesting, how interesting! This is simply too amusing to ignore!哈哈哈，有趣、有趣——真是太有趣了——

OrphiaThat voice... Is.. Is that you, Chief Research Director?这个声音……是……研究主管?

???Eh? Which little mouse are you again? Hold on, let me find your profile.诶？你是哪个小老鼠啊，稍等，我找一下你的资料。

???Oh... A Yellow Zone doctor... developing vaccines? The experiments you introduced to us yielded pretty decent results.唔……黄区的医生……研究疫苗？你介绍的实验品质量很不错嘛。

???Still, not really that useful.不过，没什么别的利用价值。

???Make things clear the next time you connect to my comms. Don't give me misinformation, got it?下次联系我的时候搞清楚，不要给我错误信息啊。

???Here I thought that a little flower that could serve as the key and gain perfect control over Boojums really did appear~我还以为真的出现了可以完美操控伯介姆，能够当钥匙的小花呢~

NytoShe's displaying symptoms.她表现出了症状。

???This so-called "control" was probably achieved through a combination of Collapse crystal use and hypnosis techniques. Just some parlor trick. Nothing interesting!应该是利用坍塌结晶和催眠技术实现的吧，跳梁小丑一样的技巧。没什么意思啦。

???No harm in getting rid of her.解决掉她也没什么关系。

OrphiaI can still be of value! I've found a way to prevent humans from turning into ELIDs, and I could determine most of the ingredients in Paradeus' drugs.我还有利用价值！我已经发现了让人类避免生骸化的方式，也能拆解出帕拉蒂斯药物中的绝大部分成分。

OrphiaJust give me a bit more time, I... I want to know what that special ingredient is! If it could be mass-produced, it'll save everyone!只要再给我一点时间，我……我想知道药剂中的特别成分是什么，只要大规模复制它，就可以救助所有人!

???The ingredients? Oh~ I remember now. That special ingredient? That's just some tissue fluid taken from a "fully-immune individual".药剂成分？哦——想起来了，那个啊，是“完全免疫体”体内提取的组织液。

???Pretty effective, right~ Hahahaha. Really good stuff.很有效吧~哈哈哈，那可是好东西。

???But it's not as easy to produce as you imagine. I've raised many little flowers, but not many of them contain such effective fluids.不过复刻没你想象的那么容易，我养了不少小花，能有同样效果的寥寥无几。

???Did you think something like THAT was worth researching? How boring.这样的东西也值得你研究？真无聊。

???You guys should just go ahead and take care of things here. Don't bother me anymore.你们看着处理就好，不要再打扰我了。

OrphiaFully-immune individuals?! The ingredient that I chased and investigated for so many years... was just some tissue fluid?完全免疫体？！我追寻那么多年的成分……只是组织液？

CommanderDon't you get it already?还不明白吗？

CommanderParadeus' goal was never to cure radiation sickness.帕拉蒂斯的目标从来就不是什么治疗辐射病。

CommanderBy claiming that they could cure radiation sickness, Paradeus was able to make deals with the conglomerates and get their support.只是以能治疗辐射病的理由，与财团达成交易从而获得支持。

CommanderThose you introduced were Paradeus followers serving as test subjects.你所介绍的……都是帕拉蒂斯实验品的信徒。

Orphia...……

CommanderEven if you didn't introduce anyone, Paradeus would use high levels of Collapse radiation to screen and select for survivors.即便你不介绍，帕拉蒂斯也会利用高强度坍塌辐射去筛选幸存者。

ColphneThose who believe in Paradeus are always spreading harm to more people.那些相信帕拉蒂斯的信徒，不断迫害更多人。

ColphneI'll never forgive them!我绝对不会原谅帕拉蒂斯的！

(The Nyto lifts the crystal. The next second, it shatters in her hand, causing radiation to spread throughout the factory. The Boojums lose their minds completely in a few moments, attacking everything in sight.)（妮特抬起手，下一秒，坍塌晶体从她的手中碎裂，辐射能量四处逸散，一时间，药厂内的伯介姆丧失理智，不断攻击。）

ElindaSister, your body can't take radiation levels this high.姐姐，这里的辐射浓度已经不适合你待着了。

ElindaWe have to leave right now!我们赶紧离开！

OrphiaWith Collapse radiation levels this high, this factory can no longer produce any drugs.这么强的坍塌辐射浓度，已经不可能再在这里生产药剂了。

ElindaThere's another way forward despite the loss of our equipment.器材没了我们还可以找别的办法。

ElindaWe have to go!快点走！

OrphiaIsa—伊莎——

LennaYou're wasting your time trying to wake them up again. It's no use.不要再尝试唤醒它们了，没有太大的用处。

OrphiaLet me try... using the vaccines.再试试……疫苗。

OrphiaI've extracted the active ingredients and concentrated them... That might work.我将疫苗中的有效成分提取出来，浓度……足够高，也许，还能有希望。

Lenna...I'll try it.……我试试。

(Lenna takes the vaccine that Orphia gives her and injects it into the unconscious body of Isa, who has already turned into a Boojum.)（莱娜接过奥尔菲娅提供的疫苗，将它注入已经变成伯介姆失去意识的伊莎体内。）

???Doctor... Doctor... Save me...医生、医生……救救我……

(The Nyto attacks, but the Boojum, who just regained some consciousness, protects Orphia from harm.)（妮特的攻击已至，恢复部分意识的伯介姆挡在了奥尔菲娅的身前。）

???No, kill me, set me free...不、杀了我，让我解脱吧……

ColphneIf you still have a doctor's mercy towards your patients, then give her freedom.如果你还有对病人的怜悯，就放他们自由。

ColphneUnchain her from this cruel fate.让他们能够彻底解脱。

NemesisI hear, divine whispers...我听到，神明的低语……

KrolikYou know where the Boojums are going to attack from?你竟然知道伯介姆会从哪里攻击我们。

NemesisThe winds are just as before...风声依旧……

KrolikI believe in your judgment, but how are you receiving information from them?我相信你的判断，不过，能感受到对面传递的讯息？

KrolikDid you hack into their Level II or something?你是骇进对面的二级平层了吗？

KlukaiThere's no need to hold back. With such levels of Collapse radiation, the Boojums will become an even bigger threat if we just let them stay here long-term.没必要留手，以现在的坍塌辐射浓度，伯介姆长期留存只会增加他们的危险性。

GrozaNumerous Boojums are still coming from that direction. We have to leave as soon as we can.还有伯介姆不断往这个方向赶来，我们必须尽快撤离。

OrphiaThis pharmaceutical factory has lost its reason for existence.这家药厂已经没有存在的必要了。

OrphiaLenna, take your friends and leave. I'll settle things here.莱娜，带着你的朋友离开吧，我会处理好这里。

ElindaBig Sis, don't do anything stupid.姐姐，不要做傻事。

OrphiaElinda, I'll entrust my ideals to you. (Coughs) I won't survive for much longer.艾琳达，我的理想就交给你了。咳、咳，在这样的辐射浓度之下，我活不了太久。

ElindaWe have our vaccines—我们有疫苗——

OrphiaYou're right. They were my last hope. They gave me more time to live than the average resident.对，所以那是我最后的希望。能让我，比普通人多活那么一点时间。

(Orphia tries to stand up. Collapse crystals emerge from her body.)（奥尔菲娅尝试站起身，坍塌晶体从她的躯体内蔓延而出。）

(She wobbles towards Lenna and shoves the specialized Collapse crystal into Lenna's hand.)（她摇晃着身躯，将手里的坍塌结晶塞到了莱娜手里。）

OrphiaUse this to make the Boojums focus on the enemy for some time.用这个，能够暂时将伯介姆的注意力吸引到敌人身上。

OrphiaOnce you activate it, take your friends and leave immediately.用完，就立刻带着你的朋友离开。

OrphiaThose patients who came to me for help should have never become the pawns of Paradeus... and they certainly didn't deserve to end up like this.那些请求我医治的病人们，不该成为帕拉蒂斯的棋子……更不应该轮到这样的结局。

OrphiaI'll activate the explosives in the factory's underground level. It shall be my final act of resistance.我会启动医药厂地下的炸弹，那是我最后的防御手段。

ElindaThere's still something we can do, I—还有办法的，我——

OrphiaElinda, this is an order. You must take my research and get out of here. As long as you're around, my research won't be all for naught.艾琳达，这是命令。你负责把我的那些研究带出去，只要你还在，我的研究，就不会断绝。

ElindaElder Sis—姐姐——

OrphiaGo.离开。

ElindaYes, Master.是，主人。

(The security systems of the pharmaceutical factory activate in full force, launching an assault on the Nytos.)（医药厂中的机械全然启动，对涅托展开攻击。）

(Countless streams of security automatons emerge from the ground, along with numerous Boojums.)（不断有安保机械从药厂的地下涌出，与此一同出现的，还有大量伯介姆。）

KrolikNo wonder we found nothing when we first visited this place.难怪我们第一次来这里的时候找不到任何线索。

KrolikAll the core facilities were installed underground.原来核心设施全安排在了地下。

KlukaiThe thing that Lenna threw seems to have worked. The Boojums have focused their attention somewhere else.莱娜扔的东西有效果，伯介姆的注意力暂时被吸引住了。

LennaCommander, we must leave quickly. This place is about to—指挥官，我们快离开，这里，再过不久可能就要——

(Boom—)（轰——）

(A massive shockwave from the explosion surges towards us. Lenna instinctively throws herself in front of me to shield me from the blast and debris.)（巨大的爆炸冲击波传来，莱娜飞扑到我的身前，下意识掩护我。）

(The Nyto's position is ravaged by the shockwave. When the dust settles, she reemerges with apparent signs of damage.)（涅托所在的位置被巨大的冲击波袭击，烟尘散去后，对方已然出现破损。）

NytoVile souls. You will pay for your actions.卑劣的灵魂将为你们的行为付出代价。

Forged Choice 开辟而出的选择

CommanderPrioritize destroying the factory.优先彻底销毁药厂。

MechtyI'm operating at full capacity already—已经最大强度运转啦——

AndorisSome of our heavy weapons are in the vehicle. I'll go get it.重型火力有部分在车上，我去拿。

OrphiaIn the end, you were right about everything.到头来，一切都被你说中了。

OrphiaI was long aware that I would serve as a pawn, but at least, I hope that my actions today will become meaningful.我早就有充当棋子的觉悟，可至少，我希望这些行为是有意义的。

OrphiaTo walk on a brand new path vastly unlike the ones once tread... I was really hoping to bear witness to the moment you find your way... Your new path.走和过往完全不同的全新道路……真希望，能够见证你未来找到道路的那一刻。

OrphiaHopefully, I'll have such an opportunity.希望，能有这个机会。

(Orphia swallows the drug held in her hands. Countless Collapse crystals emerge from her body, twisting her body into an inhuman shape. At the same time, explosions could be heard one after another.)（奥尔菲娅吞下了药剂，无数坍塌结晶从她的身躯上蔓延而出。人类的身躯被晶体彻底摧毁，与此同时还有不断迸发而出的爆炸轰鸣。）

OrphiaElinda, make sure all our intel gets out. Let everyone know what happened. At least, don't let anyone else be deceived like I was.艾琳达，把一切情报传出去吧，至少，不要再让和我一样的人被骗了。

Elinda...……

ElindaYou people... What are you all standing around for?! Do you want to be buried with the factory like my sister?!你们这些人——还愣着干嘛——要和姐姐一样给医药厂殉葬吗！

ElindaThe underground level contains enough explosives to blow this whole factory sky high.药厂下面埋的火药量，已经足够把这整个工厂全部炸飞了。

ElindaMy sister... was going to use them to realize her dreams.那些都是，姐姐本来想实现梦想用的。

ElindaDammit, dammit! Why did things have to end up like this?!可恶、可恶，为什么会这样。

CommanderOrphia, is this the... new path that you have chosen?奥尔菲娅，这就是你选的……全新道路吗？

CommanderEveryone, retreat.撤离吧，诸位。

(A string of explosions echo through the factory. With Elinda leading us, we manage to avoid the blasts.)（药厂中的爆炸声不断，有艾琳达引路，我们并未被炸弹波及。）

(After leaving the factory, we look back from afar to ensure that no Nytos and Boojums managed to get out before heading back to the Elmo.)（离开药厂，在远处确认没有涅托和伯介姆外逃后，我们赶上了艾莫号。）

ElindaBig Sis wanted me to give you this.姐姐要我给你的情报。

ElindaShe said that you are interested in Paradeus' intel and will need it.她说，你对帕拉蒂斯的情报感兴趣，会需要它的。

LennaDoes it contain any data or info on the experiments?有关于实验的数据情报吗？

ElindaHow would I know?! Elder sister hid it all even from me.我怎么知道！姐姐，她连我都瞒着。

ElindaI've given you what she told me to. I'm going back for my sister. Even if... Even if her chance at survival is one in a million, I won't give up on her just yet.东西给你们了，我要回去找姐姐，就算……只有万分之一的可能性，我也不会放弃的。

MelanieCommander... Are you okay? I stayed on the Elmo as instructed.指挥官……没事吧，梅兰妮有好好待在车上。

CommanderAre you still hearing that voice?现在你还能感应到那个声音吗？

MelanieI stopped feeling pain once the Elmo moved away.离远之后就不会感到痛苦了。

DandelionCommander, the new reports you obtained are far more detailed than the ones from the Varjagers.指挥官，你获取的报告比从瓦良格帮获取的记录更为详尽。

DandelionThe ID numbers... have been forcefully masked or redacted, so we won't be able to decrypt the exact identity of the test subjects for now. More time is needed.编号——被强制屏蔽了，暂时无法解析出对应的实验体，需要更多时间拆解。

DandelionI'm rather interested in the various coordinates mentioned in our new intel.我对情报中提到的坐标点，很感兴趣。

DandelionLooks like all these coordinates have received cargo from Paradeus bases before. If my guess is right...看起来那些坐标点都有接受过帕拉蒂斯据点提供的物件，倘若猜测准确……

CommanderThose are the locations of other Paradeus labs.那是帕拉蒂斯其他实验室的位置。

DandelionIndeed. If all this info is true, our gains today will be considered significant.没错，如果一切是真的，那这次我们的收获可谓极其之大。

DandelionWhat's most interesting is that... some of these coordinates are not in the Yellow Zones. Some of them are actually... located in various White Zones.有趣的是……有些坐标的位置，不在黄区，甚至……还有在白区的坐标点。

DandelionThe closest White Zone coordinates are located in... Lviv.离我们目的地最近的一个白区坐标点，就在——利沃夫。

GrozaHelena!海伦娜！

DandelionYeah... If Paradeus forces are in Lviv, Helena is at great risk of being targeted.嗯……如果利沃夫有帕拉蒂斯的势力，那海伦娜极有可能会被盯上。

DandelionNo need to panic.别那么紧张。

DandelionGreen Zones and White Zones are under constant surveillance. They check Collapse radiation levels on a regular basis.绿区和白区一直存在监控，他们会定期检查坍塌辐射强度。

DandelionBy right, it won't be easy for Paradeus to just have an entire base to themselves in there.照理说，直接存在帕拉蒂斯的据点，并非易事。

DandelionI had a look at the location specified in the Lviv coordinates. That area belongs to the Girard Group.我调取了坐标点的位置，那片区域隶属于吉拉尔集团。

DandelionIt is described in public sources as one dedicated to researching clean energy and Collapse radiation cleanup.公开资料显示，那边进行的是清洁能源以及坍塌辐射清理的研究。

CommanderCollapse radiation cleanup?坍塌辐射清理？

DandelionQuite amusing, isn't it? It's the complete opposite of Paradeus' research.很有趣吧。看上去和帕拉蒂斯的研究完全相反。

CommanderThese coordinates are sufficient evidence for us to investigate any collaborative relationships between the Conglomerate and Paradeus.这个坐标，足够作为我们去调查财团和帕拉蒂斯合作的证据了。

Lingering Traces 留存的证据

(Night time, Cecht FABN office in the Odesa White Zone, clear weather.)（白区，奥德卅，赛诺菲与法本集团办公室，夜晚，晴。）

ZimmermanMangi Security managed to retrieve the lost vaccines and dealt a severe blow to the Varjagers.曼尼安保已经把失窃的疫苗找回，重创瓦良格帮。

??They've lost a lot of men. People from Mangi Security have spent the past few days prodding us to invest in them more.他们损失了不少战力，这几天曼尼安保的人，一直在要求我们追加投资。

??Speaking of which, they mentioned that... one of the main reasons for their huge losses was a lack of proper communication.说起来，他们说……任务造成重大伤亡的原因之一，就是消息不够互通。

??A third-gen Doll interfered during their mission.三代人形干涉了他们的任务进程。

ZimmermanNo need to let them know too much.无需向他们透露过多的情报。

ZimmermanSecurity can only be ensured if third-gen Doll permissions remain in our hands.三代人形的管理权限只有在我们手里，才能确保安全。

??Indeed. A love for gossip is no favorable trait.爱打听的确不是一个好习惯。

??We can wipe a Doll's neural cloud, but people? The only option is to make them "die of illness".人形尚能清理心智，人类，就只能请他们病故了。

??They have requested from us a third-gen Doll that would belong entirely to them.他们向我们申请要求可以完全归属于他们的三代人形。

??I will reject that proposal. As compensation, I'll invest some money in them.我会拒绝这个提议，作为弥补，稍微给些金钱上的投资。

ZimmermanEveryone. Vaccine prices have remained quite high in the satellite cities for some time now.诸位，近期卫星城的疫苗价格已经居高不下有段时间。

ZimmermanIt's time to clamp down on the prices and establish some regulations for distribution.该限制疫苗价格以及制定发放规则了。

??In what capacity are you demanding this from us?这话，你是以什么身份来要求我们？

??As Chief Zimmerman of Odesa?奥德卅州齐默尔曼首席阁下？

ZimmermanIf we want to advance the Lullaby Project to the next step, I need enough public support.想要进一步推动摇篮曲计划，我需要足够高的民众支持。

ZimmermanVaccines are a good way to ensure that.疫苗就是一个最好的切入口。

(Green Zone, Lentine's office at Mangi Security.)（绿区，曼尼安保兰汀办公室。）

LentineThe Conglomerate is pretty generous this time. Not only did they just sign off on a bunch of investment money coming in, they agreed to provide us with a batch of Dolls as well.这次财团很大方嘛，不但批了新的投资款，还答应给一批普通人形。

KennyI heard that Lonnie asked for third-gen Dolls, but his request was rejected.听说朗尼申请三代人形的计划被驳回了。

LentineHe does justifiably have confidence to request such things since he has the backing of the Conglomerate.他背靠财团，确实能有这个底气。

LentineThey'll most likely reject it anyway, so why don't I request for a batch of third-gen Dolls as well?反正大概率会被拒绝，不如，我也去申请一波三代人形。

KennyLonnie will definitely be pissed off regardless of the outcome.无论什么结果，朗尼绝对会气疯的。

LentineThen his expression will be quite amusing.那他的表情一定会相当有趣。

KennyYou seem to not like Lonnie's squad very much, Adjutant Lentine.兰汀副官，过往你从来看不上朗尼的队伍。

LentineAh... I've been feeling the desire to climb higher lately.啊……最近稍微，想往上爬一爬了。

Lentine(I must at least prove myself to be better than that man.)（至少要证明，不输给那个人。）

LevaDecryption of the data in the chip is complete. Combined with the new intel that you provided, the chip's data designates the specified coordinates as a Paradeus lab.芯片里面的数据已经拆解完成，结合指挥官你提供的最新情报，芯片指向的坐标就是帕拉蒂斯的实验室。

LevaWe are still analyzing the rest of the intel. I'll share the details with you as soon as possible.其余情报还在进一步解析，我会尽快同步内容给你。

KalinaCommander, we have enough evidence to request the URNC to conduct further investigations into the Conglomerate.指挥官，目前拥有的证据，已经足够要求罗联对财团展开进一步调查。

KalinaEvidence of the Conglomerate funding Paradeus, Melanie being able to affect Boojums, it's all enough to prove that the Conglomerate and Paradeus must not be underestimated in their goals.无论是财团为帕拉蒂斯提供资金支持，还是梅兰妮可以影响伯介姆的情况，都充分证明，财团和帕拉蒂斯的野心不容轻视。

KalinaAre you willing to officially provide this intel to NOMFA as evidence?你愿意将它们作为正式证据提交给非军事管理局吗？

CommanderAbout Melanie and Helena...梅兰妮和海伦娜的情况……

KalinaI understand your concerns. They are our best witnesses, but haphazardly handing them over to the URNC wouldn't be a wise choice.我明白你的顾虑，她们虽然是最好的人证，但贸然交给罗联并不是一个理智的选择。

KalinaWe currently have sufficient data evidence to initiate litigation and begin an investigation.目前的数据证据已经足够优先启动诉讼，对财团和帕拉蒂斯展开调查。

KalinaHowever, all evidence submitted must be handed over through legal and due process to ensure fairness and justice.不过，所有证据的提交都必须通过合法、合规的流程，才能确保公平、公正。

KalinaGiving me evidence in private won't work.私下提交给我并不正式。

KalinaCommander, we'll need to establish a formal evidence submission process between us.指挥官，我们之间需要更为正式的证据递交环节。

KalinaI'll make a request to management as a Senior Counselor of NOMFA to approve the next step of our evidence submission process.我会向上申请，以非军事力量管理局高级参事的身份和你进一步对接证据的提交。

KalinaThe catch is... your identity will be exposed to the upper echelons of the URNC.只是……这样的话你现在的身份也会暴露在罗联上层的眼中。

Narration(I recall a number of familiar faces I know from the URNC and sigh. I want to completely destroy Paradeus, but it's quite obvious that I won't be able to do it alone.)（想到在罗联认识的那些熟人，我叹了一口气，想要彻底摧毁帕拉蒂斯，仅靠我一人的力量显然不可能实现。）

Narration(I need the URNC to exert pressure on the Conglomerate and thus cut off Paradeus' financial support. The destruction of Paradeus can proceed once that is accomplished.)（借助罗联的力量对财团施压，彻底断绝帕拉蒂斯的经济支持，这样才能进一步摧毁帕拉蒂斯。）

CommanderI'll be waiting for you aboard the Elmo.我会在艾莫号上等你。

KalinaAlright. I'll make an official visit once everything is approved.好，等审批通过我就正式拜访。

Narration(I end the call with Kalina. The only people remaining in the ops room are me and Lenna.)（结束和格琳娜的通讯后，艾莫号指挥室内只剩下了莱娜和我。）

Narration(She pouts, her face clearly expressing her reluctance towards leaving me. She was planning to stay aboard the Elmo and head to Lviv with me, then meet with Kalina together.)（她嘟起嘴，满脸舍不得走的样子，原本她计划一直留在艾莫号上，和我一起去利沃夫再和格琳娜汇合。）

Narration(Given the current situation, her plans have definitely gone up in smoke.)（以现在的情况看，这个计划目前无法实现。）

LennaCommander... Is there anything you want to say to me?指挥官……就没有什么想和我说的吗？

CommanderWe won't be apart for long. We'll see each other again very soon, I believe.分别不了太久，我们很快就会再见面的吧。

LennaIf Leva didn't tell me that I would cause misunderstandings by being present aboard the Elmo during your official meeting with Miss Kalin in her official position as a Senior Counselor...要不是莱娅姐说，等格琳姐以非军事力量管理局高级参事的身份正式和指挥官碰面的时候，我出现在艾莫号上会引起误会……

LennaI would have stayed till Miss Kalin came over and gone back with her~我想干脆等到格琳姐来再和她一起回去~

LennaI'll support Miss Kalin's decision if she decides to stay aboard the Elmo forever, of course!当然，如果格琳姐想一直留在艾莫号上的话，我也支持！

LennaCommander...指挥官……

CommanderIs there anything else?还有什么想和我说的？

LennaUm... Umm... Uhhh...唔……唔……唔……

Narration(Lenna hesitates for a while in front of me before stretching her arms out, clearly hoping for a hug.)（莱娜在我面前忽然犹豫良久后，张开双臂做出了想要拥抱的样子。）

Narration(I sigh, and she leaps into my embrace just as I open my arms to give her a hug.)（我叹了口气，刚准备给她一个临别拥抱，就被她扑了个满怀。）

LennaHeheh...嘿嘿、嘿嘿。

LennaLeva and Miss Kalin care deeply for you, Commander.无论是莱娅姐还是格琳姐都超级在意指挥官。

LennaAnd the same goes for me!当然还有我！

LennaWe were all worried about you when you left us a decade ago, wondering if it was because you no longer wanted to be dragged into Griffin's affairs.大家总是担心，当年指挥官离开，是不是因为不想再牵扯进和格里芬相关的事情。

LennaI still haven't understood your thoughts on it even after our reunion.和指挥官见面后，也一直不清楚你的想法。

LennaCommander, if you wish to tread on a different path... No matter what it leads you to, remember that we'll always be by your side, supporting you.如果指挥官想走一条和过往不一样的路，无论那是什么样的选择，我们一直都在你的身边。

LennaPlease do not forget that!请千万不要忘记这一点！

CommanderI see... Thank you, Lenna.嗯……谢谢你莱娜。

LennaI'm saying this on behalf of Miss Kalin and Leva... And for myself too, of course... That's all!我是帮格琳姐和莱娅姐说的嘛……也有我自己的意思啦——总之就是这样！

LennaSee you in the near future, Commander!我们很快会再见的，指挥官！
