INTRO |================================================================= Here's the game script for Scurge: Hive. An isometric 2D shooting action game, a good one that will offer intense and exciting combat actions throughout the game. Shooting, jumping, along with some thinking are required, as well as remembering the elemental affinities and weaknesses of the enemies. Your main tasks to finish the game are especially collecting security cards to open doors, activating nodes for teleport nexus, and don't forget to kick the bosses' ass. Some upgrade for weapons and abilities provided progressively, though you may have to solve some puzzles first (mainly involve speed and some brains). The most interesting part -IMHO- is the shooting action itself, especially later on the game, which require you to quickly switch among weapon types to deal appropriate damage to enemies. Based on their elemental properties, certain weapon types will hurt the enemies badly, some are ineffective, and even some others will power-up them! You could even face many enemies with different elemental properties in one single room, so pick your choice wisely. The sound FX is also OK, as you can quickly identify what type of enemies exist in an area from their sounds, or is there a security card waiting to be picked up. The music also fits the mood, keep you thinking that something bad is drawing near, as you go deeper to unveil the truth behind all the mess... also mention Jenosa's sexy "Uggh!" voice when hit by the enemy, I like it XD. Apart from those, I feel that this game is relatively short. 7 excerpts total, and I already have my HP and level maxed out on fifth excerpt beginning... want to see some sequels... :d Anyway, here's the game script. ===| B.

PROLOGUE [] RECEIVING TRANSMISSION Decoding Protocol: 2A75E6 Attention: Jenosa Arma Hunter Designation: Q4-75E1JA Target: Confederation Research Lab 56 Planet Inos Briefing A distress signal was received 48 hours earlier from this high security research lab. Subsequent attempts to establish communications have proven futile. The facility's primary objective was to study and confine samples of the newly discovered alien entity, specimen Gamma-74: Scurge. This highly adaptable entity is known for it's ability to rapidly infect and manipulate biological, mechanical, and energy based systems. Failure of the entity's containment is to be assumed. In order to counteract the infective nature of the entity, you have been issued a prototype suit used within the facility. Bear in mind that this suit is currently only capable of slowing down the infection to allow more time to complete objectives. The suit has also been modified to house a projectile gauntlet as opposed to traditional firearms which could be infected by the scurge. Your primary objective is to obtain any surviving data and technologies by incorporating them into your suit prior to your retrieval. Any entities encountered are to be deemed hostile and permission is granted to terminate on sight. END TRANSMISSION... [] II. Excerpt 1 [] [] Rude Awakening [] [ Planet Inos ] ( Ariving on the Planet Inos orbit ) Magellan : Destination Planet Inos reached... Disengaging warp core... Jenosa : Magellan! Lock on to the Research Facility's beacon. Magellan : Locating beacon... Signal confirmed... Calibrating thrusters... Establishing geosynchronous orbit... ( Jenosa's ship has been hit by unknown energy weapon ) Jenosa : What the! Magellan! What's happening?! Magellan : A high intensity energy weapon is being targeted at the vessel. Hull integrity is stable. Searching weapons database... Negative... No such weapons match the current beam's specifications. Jenosa : Since when do remote research stations have high intensity energy weapons?! We're right in the middle of confederation space, light years from the border! Magellan : Energy beam has dissipated. Commencing damage assessment... Jenosa : That's just...odd. Didn't seem like that did much except toss the ship around a little... ( Alert signal activated ) Jenosa : ...Great...Just great. Magellan! Report! Magellan : Foreign life forms detected onboard vessel! Sealing all hatches according to quarantine protocols... Jenosa : Looks like we've got ourselves some guests. Magellan. Specify location of life forms. A little house cleaning is in order. Magellan : Highest concentration located in the reactor core and aft storage compartment of vessel. Proceed with caution. *************************** CONTROL PANEL - Cruiser (1) --------------------------- Magellan : Multiple malfunctions detected throughout vessel systems.

Excerpt 2 [] [] Marooned [] [ Planet Inos Surface ] ( Landing on the planet surface ) Jenosa : Ouch! Definitely not the smoothest landing I've had. I guess now is a good time to get my bearings. I remember asking for a backup Magellan program to be installed somewhere on this suit... Ah! There we go. Magellan : Magellan Backup Version 3.5 loading... Program initiated. Please state your query. Jenosa : Nice to have you back Magellan. Looks like there's going to have to be a slight change of plan. If I'm going to get paid I'll still need to retrieve as many research prototypes and data from the facility as possible. What's my location? Magellan : Accessing Topographical Database: Planet Inos... Extrapolating position... Confederate Research Facility 56: Biocore Lab is located 178m due northeast of current location. ---------------------------------- Target Update : ---------------------------------- Locate the entrance to the biocore research facility. ---------------------------------- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Pipes can be climbed by jumping and pressing the + Control Pad toward them. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Upon arriving on the facility ) Jenosa : Hmm, looks like someone already took the liberty of opening the door. Magellan. Any life forms detected within the facility? Magellan : Calculating... 1658 signatures detected in immediate vicinity. Scurge variants detected in 1368 of signatures. Sensor indicate that the main generator is offline. Currently the facility is operating on minimal auxiliary power. Proceed with caution. Jenosa : Roger. ( Upon entering the facility and notice the Security Card ) Jenosa : Magellan. Identify object. Magellan : Searching database... Object identified as Security Card. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Security doors can only be deactivated if you have collected the required number of security cards. The number of cards you are currently carrying is shown in the lower right corner of the screen. A pulsing sound will be emitted if there is a security card in the current room. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Entering first Security Door ) Magellan : Decontamination Platform detected... these platforms are designed specifically for facilities that research and handle Scurge specimens. They will interface directly with this suit and help reset the level of infection on personnel. ( Accessing nearby panel and updating locations of Decontamination Platforms ) %%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%% When the infection in your body reaches critical levels check your map to locate the nearest decontamination chamber. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Entering next chamber ) Jenosa : Magellan. Looks like the scuffle here has knocked out most of the power. Is there anyway we can reinitiate the power grid? Magellan : Scanning Facility schematics... Results are inconclusive at this time. However, an active data access port has been detected in the vicinity. ( Map coordinates update showing Upgrade ) *************************** CONTROL PANEL - Biocore (1) --------------------------- To: Profesor Jidan, Bio medics Division Re: Specimen Handling Tool My apologies but I won't be able to meet up with you later on this evening. Some of my colleagues have been experiencing difficulty dealing with specimens in Lab 03. They have become increasingly hard to handle as of late. I promised to lend you the Specimen Handling Tool ie. Tether to move some of your crates around, so I left it in the security chamber in the Hangar Bay 02. You'll just have to activate the timers. I won't be needing it until next week so there's no hurry. Sincerely, Mino *************************** ( Entering room with Tether Upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% In order to open sealed rooms you must activate all of the countdown posts. Once you hit the first post a timer will appear in the lower right corner of the screen. You must activate all of the posts before the timer runs out or the system will be reset. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Receiving the Tether Gauntlet upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Obtained tether gauntlet enhancement. Press and hold the L Button to deploy an energy tether. If the tether hits enemies or objects it will latch on allowing you to drag them. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Re-entering the previous room ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Pressure Plates can be activated by standing on them or by dragging objects onto them. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% *************************** CONTROL PANEL - Biocore (2) --------------------------- MEMO Attention all engineering staff. In light of recent malfunctions with the droids and computers please be aware that accidents have become quite frequent. Malfunctioning units can prove dangerous to staff so please bring any noted abnormal behavior to the attention of senior staff members. In case of more serious malfunctions, the EMP suit enhancement unit has been placed in the security chamber of the Basement, Lab 04. This will deal with any problematic droids. We are assuming that the problems are caused by a possible virus or a malfunctioning node. The problem will be rectified as soon as possible. *************************** ( Trying to enter dark room ) Jenosa : It's to dangerous to continue if I can't see where I'm going. ( Magellan detecting a new upgrade around ) Magellan : A new upgrade has been detected. %%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%% To view different floors of the current area press the R Button. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Receiving the EMP Gauntlet upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% EMP Gauntlet Enhancement Obtained. Use this upgrade to deal heavy damage to mechanical type enemies. To use EMP shots, press and hold the R Button to open the alignment selection menu. Next push the + Control Pad in the direction of the alignment you wish to use. Then release the R Button to confirm your selection. To quickly return to your default alignment tap the R Button with no direction pressed on the + Control Pad. If sufficient damage is inflicted on an enemy the effect will be chained to other nearby enemies. Be aware however that EMP shotd enhance energy type enemies causing them to become stronger and faster. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Magellan : Sensors have located the main generator within the Ransol industrial complex. There is a local teleport hub that leads to the facility northeast of your current position. The auxiliary power should still be sufficient to operate the teleport. ---------------------------------- Target Update : ---------------------------------- Head to the Ransol Industrial Complex in order to power up the main generator. ---------------------------------- ( Encounter EMP post for the first time ) Magellan : These posts are used to power mechanical pillars in the facility. However they require an electrical boost to function. <><><><> Boss Battle <><><><> Ransol Teleport Sentry CYCLOPS <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> ( After defeating Cyclops ) Magellan : The Bio energy of larger entities is condensed into an energy cell that will refill health and augment the recharge speed of the gauntlet. ( Commencing the teleportation ) Jenosa : Okay, here we go... I've never really liked teleporing... Gives me nausea. Magellan... You sure this is safe? Magellan : Affirmative. Though only auxiliary power is available these teleporters are designed to function in emergencies. At minimal power odds of failing materialization are 1 in 1000. Jenosa : ...That's comforting to know... Magellan : Initiating teleport protocols... Destination Ransol Industrial Complex... Please standby... [] IV. Excerpt 3 [] [] Stench [] [ Ransol Industrial Complex ] ( Upon materializing at the complex ) Jenosa : Urk...nope, still not used to this teleporting business. So after powering up the generator do I head back here to get back to the Biocore? Magellan : Negative... The teleport schematics are currently locked. Jenosa : Well that's pretty stupid. What's the use of a teleport if it doesn't work both ways? Magellan : Standard teleport design incorporates bi-directional travel. Currently the parameters have been locked to prevent dematerialization at this terminal. Jenosa : ...That's odd. ( Accessing nearby panel and updating locations of Decontamination Platforms ) ( Entering the next chamber ) Jenosa : Damn, the air just reeks. Magellan. How do we get to the main generator from here? The quicker the better. Magellan : The main generator is located at the top of the facility. The only way to reach the generator is via the facility's internal transport Nexus. Scanning Facility schematics... ---------------------------------- Target Update : ---------------------------------- Reactivate the Nexus to reach the facility's main generator. ---------------------------------- ****************************** CONTROL PANEL - Industrial (1) ------------------------------ To: Deman Lida Re: Dealing with those energy vermin Hi Deman, Bensman came to me this morning saying that the south sector is being sealed off due to an infestation of pyronauts. We still haven't figured out how they managed to get out of the containment fields we set up but we do know that they use the ventilation system to get about. To deal with those pests I've sent you a Dissipater upgrade. It's practically lethal for any energy beings since it will disrupt their condensed structures directly. You can pick it up tomorrow in the basement security chamber. Just ask one of the guys working down there to reset the timers for you. Good luck, Fandre. ****************************** ( Upon reaching the Nexus ) Magellan : In order to activate the Nexus, 6 Security Nodes will have to be repositioned and reactivated. Tether onto security nodes to drag them around. Once a security node is dragged onto an activation pad it will deactivate one of the 6 nexus locks. Jenosa : Magellan... Locate the security node locations for the Ransol Industrial Complex. ( Updating map coordinates, locating the security nodes ) Jenosa : Hmm, so in order to bypass the transport's lock I have to reactivate the Security Nodes... Well, time to get going. ( Magellan detecting a new upgrade around ) Magellan : A new upgrade has been detected. ( Got the Dissipator upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Dissipator Gauntlet Enhancement Obtained. Use this upgrade to deal heavy damage to energy enemies. To use dissipator shots, select this icon in the alignment selection menu. If sufficient damage is inflicted on an enemy the effect will be chained to other nearby enemies. Be aware however that dissipator shots enhance biological enemies causing them to become stronger and faster. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Upon reaching door with energy barrier ) Magellan : This door appears to be blocked by an energy barrier. It seems to be controled by this energy conduit. If you can manage to dissipate the energy within the conduit the energy barrier blocking the door should be disabled. ( Reach the pump station ) Magellan : These pumping stations can be used to raise and lower the water levels within the facility. When you activate a pump the water will be changed throughout the facility. ( Accessing the pump station to raise the water level ) Magellan : The water levels throughout the Ransol Industrial Complex have been raised. ( Accessing the pump station to lower the water level ) Magellan : The water levels throughout the Ransol Industrial Complex have been lowered. ( Magellan detecting a new upgrade around ) Magellan : A new upgrade has been detected. ****************************** CONTROL PANEL - Industrial (2) ------------------------------ To: Adre Bensman, Security Re: Emergency procedures In light of the recent events at this facility, it is requested that all security personnel be equipped with a prototype cryostasis defence enhancement for their gauntlets. This addition will allow the personnel to flash freeze any rogue droids or escaped specimens in order to be collected and destroyed. Rest assured that the effect will not harm the personnel themselves. However the duration of the frozen state is still unstable so remind staff not to let their guards down. All preparations should be ready within 8 hours so make sure all personnel head down to the basement to obtain their upgrades. ****************************** ( Obtain the Cryostasis upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Cryostasis Gauntlet Enhancement Obtained. Use this upgrade to freeze any enemy nearby for a short time. To use cryostasis, select this icon in the alignment selection menu. While enemies are frozen they can be used to activate pressure plates. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Activated the Nexus ) Jenosa : Alright, that should be it. The transport should be up and running. Magellan : Transport Nexus activation confirmed. Prepare for local teleport. <><><><> Boss Battle <><><><> Ransol Generator Sentry ATLAS <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> ( After defeating Atlas and head to the next chamber ) Jenosa : Alright, time to fire this baby back up. Magellan. Magellan : The main generator has to be operated manually. In order to power up the generator, activate the computer console. Jenosa : Manually?... Then that would have required someone to turn it off in the first place. ( Enter the teleport chamber ) Jenosa : Time to head back and not a moment too soon. [] V. Excerpt 4 [] [] Into The Tiger's Lair [] [ Biocore Complex ] ( Upon ariving back at Biocore Complex ) Jenosa : Phew! I'm glad that's over with. Magellan. Now that the power is back on what's next on the agenda? Magellan : Scans confirm that a teleport nexus has been powered within the biocore facility. Jenosa : That big central Nexus? I wonder what it leads too... Magellan, pinpoint the Nexus. Magellan : Affirmative... ( Updating map coordinates, showing the Nexus location ) ---------------------------------- Target Update : ---------------------------------- Reactivate the Nexus to reach the central research laboratory. ---------------------------------- ( Magellan detecting a new upgrade around ) Magellan : A new upgrade has been detected. *************************** CONTROL PANEL - Biocore (1) --------------------------- Hiya Mino. Yesterday while testing out that Tether you lent me I was 'tweaking' the schematics when I stumbled upon a rather interesting effect. I was hooking onto sentry orbs when I found out that tugging on the Tether caused an energy feedback loop which shoot me across the room. A rubber band effect you might say. I dubbed it the 'Jidan Grapple Effect'. I think I narrowly avoided slipping a disk but it was an exhilarating ride, albeit short. If you would like a cheap thrill I left the upgrade program in my security locker. Note that this only seems to work on the security orbs. Also, you know you owe me a date. How about a dinner at the cafetaria tomorrow night? *************************** ( Obtain the Grapple Enhancement upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Grapple Enhancement Obtained. Use the grapple upgrade to tether onto sentry orbs and sling shot accross gaps that are too wide to jump accross. ( On the next room ) Tether onto these floating sentry orbs and press the A Button to sling shot accross gaps that are too wide to jump accross. The farther you are from the orb the farther you will be launched. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Upon reaching the Nexus ) Jenosa : Magellan... Locate the security node locations for the biocore facility. ( Updating map coordinates, locating the security nodes ) ( Entering the Northwest chamber ) Magellan : Attention. Multi-channel Transmission detected. Jenosa : Magellan. Intercept signal. ??? : --- Professor --- we have --- managed ---- escape to the Dea--- Laboratory --- awaiting rescue efforts --- --- being attacked --- Jormungand ------ lost --- main transmitter ---- Hurry ----- Currently ---- using ---station's broadcast frequency ----- difficult ----- establish ----- communicati ----- Magellan : Unable to establish two way communications. Source transmitter not receiving. Jenosa : Magellan. Pinpoint the source of the transmission. ( Updating map coordinates, locating the transmission's source ) ----------------------------------- Target Update : ----------------------------------- Head to the Deadscape Field Research Laboratory in order to investigate source of transmission. ----------------------------------- [ Deadscape Field Research Laboratory ] ( Upon arriving on the lab ) Jenosa : Whoah. Feels like a while since I've seen natural light. How long before it gets dark again? Magellan : The day and night cycles upon Inos are relatively rapid. Furthermore, the shadows cast by its multiple moons periodically interupt the official daylight part of the cycle, bringing on temporary patches of night during the day. Jenosa : So in other words I won't be able to enjoy the sunlight for extended periods of time... this planet's getting less enjoyable by the minute. So Magellan, where did that transmission came from? Magellan : Transmission source traced to Specimen Beta-267's containment area. Jenosa : let me guess... It's protected by a teleport nexus? Magellan : Affirmative. ( Updating map coordinates, showing the Nexus location ) ----------------------------------- Target Update : ----------------------------------- Reactivate the Nexus to gain access to Specimen Beta-267's containment area. ----------------------------------- ( Accessing nearby panel and updating locations of Decontamination Platforms ) ( Magellan detecting a new upgrade around ) Magellan : A new upgrade has been detected. ***************************** CONTROL PANEL - Deadscape (1) ----------------------------- To: Selen Re: Dealing with large biological mobs So far it seems like there are 3 surviving groups. I was not able to establish communications with Professor Derad at the Mines, but I'm hoping he'll be able to send off the distress signal. Over here at the industrial facility the power is still on but I am uncertain as to how long we have before they break our defensive perimeter, we've already lost 4 men. Please relay the message to the Professor that I have shut down the generator as requested to cut off power to Yggdrasil. It should stall the Source until reinforcements arrive. In the meantime, I strongly urge you to find the Combustion Shot upgrade stored within your area. This will help you deal with biological based organisms more easily. They have become more aggresive as time goes by so it's imperative that you use it to survive. I have attached the coordinates to this message. Good luck, Fandre ***************************** ( Upon reaching the Nexus ) Jenosa : Magellan... Locate the security node locations within the Deadscape. ( Updating map coordinates, locating the security nodes ) ( Obtaining the Combustion enhancement ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Combustion Gauntlet Enhancement Obtained. Use this upgrade to deal heavy damage to biological enemies. To use combustion shots, select this icon in the alignment selection menu. If sufficient damage is inflicted on a biological enemy the effect will be chained to other nearby enemies. Be aware however that combustion shots enhance mechanical enemies causing them to become stronger and faster. The combustion alignment can be used to burn withered vines. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ***************************** CONTROL PANEL - Deadscape (2) ----------------------------- TO anyone who chance upon this, I am sorry for having failed my friends and colleagues. My suit's infection containment has failed, and it won't be long before the infection takes its hold. I have taken my research data as far away as I could from the Source's reach but this is far as I can go. Dr. Dorrel and I made it as far as Jormungand's cage. I told him to remain there to stay in contact with the other 2 teams. I decided to start heading back to the Biocore see if I could further disable or even damage Yggdrasil. Upon leaving I decided to deactivate the transport Nexus to avoid anything getting to him and left him with enough weapons to hopefully keep Jormungand at bay. Unfortunately he is the only one with a functioning transmitter now, mine just failed 5 hours ago. I have detached the experimental Adrenaline Rush upgrade in my suit and placed it in a security lock in hopes to keep it hidden. At this point in time it would do little to save me. ***************************** ( Magellan detecting a new upgrade around ) Magellan : A new upgrade has been detected. ( Obtaining the Adrenaline rush upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% The adrenaline rush upgrade temporarily increases your reaction time. While activated everything around you will appear to move much more slowly. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Successfully activate all Security Nodes and entering the Nexus ) Jenosa : Looks like it's time to pay this Jormungand a visit. <><><><> Boss Battle <><><><> Native Specimen Beta-267 JORMUNGAND <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> ( After defeating Jormungand ) Jenosa : I'm too late... Magellan : Attention. The transmitter is attempting to establish two way communications. Jenosa : Magellan. Lock on the frequency and route me through. ??? : Hello?---Hello? Dr. Dorrel Please respond.---Hello? Jenosa : I'm sorry, but I didn't make it in time to reach the Doctor. ??? : Who is this?! Jenosa : Jenosa Arma. I've been sent by Commander Kozan. ??? : Reinforcements?! Finally! Why has it taken so long for a task force to get there? How many units have arrived? Jenosa : Actually I'm not much of a task force, I'm a bounty hunter employed by the COmmander to retrieve whatever I could. My objectives did not mention any rescue efforts. ??? : ! A Bounty Hunter?! A BOUNTY HUNTER?! The idiot! Is keeping his secret research pet projects so important his personnel aren't even worth saving?! Does he even realize how many people he's lost? Instead he is content with sending vultures to scavenge the remains. Jenosa : Hey! watch it. Do you want to be rescued or not? My objectives may not be search and rescue but you do count as valuable data if that makes you feel any better. By the way things are going, either I find you first or this 'Source' thing does. ??? : The Source?! Did you encounter it? Jenosa : No but you scientists seem rather fond of mentioning it. Care to share some information? ??? : All that matters is that it's the reason this whole Scurge mess occured in the first place. In the meantime, you'll have to come get me. I'm in no position to leave my current location. Jenosa : ...and that place would be? ??? : The Mines. Near the Industrial Facility. I've barricaded myself in the control room. Jenosa : Well, you'll be glad to hear that I'm making you a priority. Sit tight. ??? : ... [] VI. Excerpt 5 [] [] Before we knew it... [] [ Biocore Complex ] ( Upon arriving back at Biocore Complex ) Jenosa : Alright Magellan. Tell me how to get to the Mines, we've got ourselves a date. --------------------------- Target Update : --------------------------- Head to the Mines to rescue Profesor Derad. --------------------------- Magellan : Incoming transmission from Professor Derad. Jenosa : Route me through. Derad : Jenosa? Oh good, you're still alive. Jenosa : What's that supposed to mean? I made it back to the Biocore. Just heading out to the Mines teleport. Derad : Good. By the way, I see that you are wearing one of the lab suits. Do you happen to have the Boost Jump upgrade installed? You're going to need it to navigate the Mines. Jenosa : No. Directions would be handy right about now if you know where to get it. Derad : That's classified information... Jenosa : Which should mean nothing to you right now since you're screwed if I can't get to you. You can settle your vendetta against the Commander once I haul you back. Derad : ...Sending coordinates. ( Updating map coordinates ) ( If trying to enter poisonous room ) Magellan : This area seems to be filled with a poisonous gas. If you stay here your health will drop very quickly. ( Obtaining the boost jump suit upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Boost jump suit enhancement obtained. Press the A button in mid air to activate the boost jump. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% [ Ransol Excavation Site ] ( Upon arriving at Ransol Excavation Site ) Magellan : Incoming transmission from Professor Derad. Jenosa : Route him through. Alright. I'm here... and it's freezing. Since when did research facilities need an open pit mine? Derad : The mines are used to obtain resources as well as geothermal power. In order to operate Yggdrasil, a huge amount of energy is required. Jenosa : Yggdrasil? That name came up a few times in the logs. I'm sure you won't mind clueing me in? Derad : Yggdrasil is the name used for the huge Interplanetary Transport that we've been developing. This entire research facility isn't just responsible for experimenting on the Scurge, it also houses many of the Commander's other so called experimental toys. By vastly improving the maximum distance and specifications of teleport beams, along with placing the subjects in outer space-compatible pods as a safe guard, we were able to transport live specimens with ease throughout this Solar System. Jenosa : ...and no wonder why the Commander is so keen to salvage at least something from here. Why didn't you guys use it to escape? Still too risky? Derad : By the time of the incident, we already knew the teleport was close to being 100% reliable. Before we knew it however, the Scurge Source had already infested out systems entirely and established it's Hive around Yggdrasil. Jenosa : You make it sound like this thing knows what it's doing. Derad : Initially, the Scurge did not exhibit any form of sentience whatsoever. However, as our experiments on the Source progressed, we observed an emerging collective mind. The more information and organisms it assimilated, the more this become evident. By the time we realized the extent of this, the Source had already engineered its escape. But I disgress, I have to send you the coordinates of my location. You're going to have to get to the control room I'm in via the facility's... Jenosa : Transport Nexus. I assume you also deactivated all the Nodes like your other buddies. Derad : ...exactly. Jenosa : I catch on pretty quick.

Any personnel caught without the proper equipment will be subject to a heavy fine and disciplinary action. Extra illumination enhancements can be found on Level 2. Work Safe. Work Hard. Pit Foreman. ************************* ( Obtaining the Illumination upgrade ) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TUTORIALS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Illumination enhancement suit upgrade obtained. This upgrade automatically emits an emergency light source when you are in dark areas. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ( Incoming transmission ) Magellan : Incoming transmission from Professor Derad. Jenosa : Again? Route him through... Quite the chatty one aren't you Professor. Derad : I'm not in the mood for idle banter. I've been trying to gain access into the Biocore's systems. I'm reading a huge amount of activity within Yggdrasil's Transport Nexus. Did you notice anything when passing through the Biocore Facility? Jenosa : After I restorated the power to the Biocore I've been slowly reactivating the Security Nodes. I didn't notice anything irregular last time I checked. Derad : ... You did what?!! Do you realize why the generator was shut down in the first place?! The Source didn't just make it's way into Yggdrasil looking for a cozy spot to settle, it's intending to use it! You idiot! Jenosa : Is there anyway we can reverse the process? Derad : It would be futile to head back to the Industrial Facility and shut it back down. You've already caused enough damage. However, Yggdrasil takes a long time to become fully operational. It can still only teleport within the planet's orbital range. We can still stop the Source in time. In th meantime, I need you to pickup an experimental weapon, the Plasma Bomb, that I locked in the mines. It should prove very useful. Also, it seems like the Source has shut down the ventilation system and started releasing toxic gases into the Biocore facility. Once we're through with this place you'll have to head over to the Forest lab. I have just the enhancement needed to help filter out the toxins. Jenosa : Sounds like a plan. Derad : I'm sending the coordinates right now just... No! Impossible! How can it! Aaaaaaaahhh!!! Jenosa : Professor! Magellan : Transmission terminated.
