...No...

You must have--

They beat her mercilessly, but she wouldn't let go of me...

She left a trail of blood in the snow as they dragged her away.

If Reunion had... If the Infected could have... If only--!

If they came sooner, none of this would have happened!

We would not have had to suffer so much!

I... I wasn't brave enough to...

I... Aaaahh...

Misha...

It'll be fine... It'll all be fine in the end.

I don't blame you.

Back then... who would've been brave enough?

But now, Reunion has given me that bravery.

Al--

Skullshatterer...

Whether or not you trust us is up to you.

Even if you trust us, whether or not you join us is also up to you.

But you are an Infected.

Reunion... will definitely fight until the bitter end so that the Infected can be free.

But... you destroyed Chernobog.

Along with countless innocents--

...Innocents?

Hah. Who's innocent?

When Chernobog implemented the quarantine, did any of them speak out against it?

When Ursus sent us to die in the mines and the frozen wastelands, did any of them do anything about it?

Did any of them ever stand up for us?!

I don't know...

...Reunion has two leaders who fought for Ursus for a long time.

They said that there were some in Ursus who stood against the government for the sake of the Infected.

But they weren't in Chernobog.

Chernobog coldly turned a blind eye towards us as we died...

No, they laughed as they watched us die!!

Chernobog... deserved to be destroyed!

I met other people who were helping the Infected... They...

Rhodes Island?

Despite being Infected, they helped Lungmen and harmed us, didn't they?

They slew our comrades and decimated our brethren, didn't they?

No...

You couldn't see the truth. But it should be clear to you now...

...Sorry, I let my anger take over.

It's fine... I...

I understand how you feel...

You must have been suffering so much... all this time...

Everyone has been through a lot.

But right now, at least we have hope.

Talulah... She is the one who took charge of the Infected and led the fight against the cruelty of this world.

Reunion is the only hope we have.

I see... You've all suffered so much...

If Reunion can really protect them all...

Of course.

Just like how Reunion will protect everyone... I will protect you.

I won't let anyone hurt you anymore.

Skullshatterer...

Ooh, I found 'em--!

Looks like they sustained some pretty serious losses.

Luckily, I didn't head back to the company headquarters... Otherwise, I would've needed to make a long detour for this mission...

Try to predict their escape routes.

Send all likely routes along with their bearings to Amiya.

I'll be done in a sec!

Hmph.

We can't give Reunion time to regroup.

Hmmm, let's see... over here... like this... and that should do it!

Are you done, Exusiai?

What do you need? How are we going to do this?

Let's have a little warm-up first.

Start with their sentries.

第二十五关（前）

Curses...!

There are only two enemies! Get in there already!

What are you so scared of?!

We've already lost over twenty soldiers!

Those two devils are no ordinary people...!

Watch your right!

Give me a hand.

Keep pressuring her! I'll finish her off!

I don't have time to deal with that guy rushing at me.

You owe me a drink next time, all right?

Sure, now hurry it up.

All right!

Hey, Mister Reunion guy?

Huh?

This bullet is my gift to you. Make sure to accept it with gratitude~

Bullet? What the...

Guh... Ughh...

Heh, took care of him for you~

Thank you very much.

Y-you monster!

Her... her sword...

Aaaaahh! I'm sorry!!

--Usually, I prefer to use two.

Gaah! Aaagh! !

That's the rest of them.

We were totally in sync back there!

...Guess so.

Get back here!

Here comes their main force.

Looks like we made a bit too much noise and drew their attention.

Aaaaaah!!! You...!!

How can this be... What have you done?!
