ARGH! He got me!...
...is what I'd say if we were a pack of naive amateurs.
Tch! You subpar excuse for a robot...! Don't expect that trick to work again!
...You haven't been listening to a word we've been saying, have you?
You're an idiot. You spent your time looking for a vessel to suit you when you could've simply went to iX and hosted him while he was still alone. And even now, as you're outnumbered and outmatched, all you can do is frantically force yourself on the closest thing you can find.
Hey, that kinda looks like...!
Holy crap, it IS! That's the Chaos Heart!
Now all I gotta do is get it out without damaging it, and get it back to base!
Humblest apologies... but this ride isn't free.
Huh. So ya found the Chaos Heart, have you?
Congratulations! Unfortunately, since I'm not a complete moron, I can't really let you do anything with it. Would be lying if I wasn't curious, but come on this is how the whole Regulus bodanza started.
Here. Have a compensation reward instead.
I know. Lame that I have to impede on your journey for it and waste all your valuable time simply due to a passing whim, but that's just how the cookie crumbles. Nothin personnel, kid.
Wha--
That PIECE OF...!
Yes, Ali Xiphos speaking.
Xiphos, it's Tachyos! We've got a federal
ing issue here! First of all, I managed to find the Chaos heart-
Holy
, you're ACTUALLY getting on zat for once!?
Yeah, but before I could grab it, some guy shows up and just casually yoinks it away!
Well, ZAT doesn't sound very good. So, we tracking ze fool down?
Hell no, not by ourselves. The guy's probably on the same level as that Duracell hack. Yeah, I watched the games on TV. They were BORING, by the way.
If we were to try and take him 6 on 1, though? He'd be MUCH easier to beat!
Pretty sure he'll just bull
his way past every attack we zrow at him. We need a BETTER idea, Tachyos.
I say we get Ali Telum in on this, see what he thinks!
It's practically a guarantee zat he'd just say "USE MORE GUN" or somezing like zat, but whatever.
How is he doing all of this?! He was a mass-produced model!
(...and what did it mean by "Test Subject #5"?)
...I believe I heard Saktira and Nichts mention experiments of some sort. And if they're made from Extreme...
What, not toxic enough for you?! 



...ah cr-
...Replicapture armor?!
Wait, what happened to the...?!
It must be evolving...I didn't think it would happen this fast.
...I've heard tales about what became of those who lived in this "Neo Arcadia"* from my time. How much they've held up, I'm not sure, but with Dyna's team and the Revolt Robots occupied, it might be the best chance we've got.
iX, hop on!
I'm not done yet! I've-
Okay, now you're just trying to sound generic-
You are NOT going to call me generic or so help me I won't even leave your wasted corpses behind.
