Well then, let's get going. We've got ourselves a moth's wings to clip.

---

Everyone but Roza looks over to the capsule now.
Another machine? You touch release button?
As soon as the the General's code goes through, it should au-.
Suddenly a loud hissing sound can be heard from all the capsules.

As the capsule shatters, Shram falls backwards. As he looks back up, he sees the figure slumped to the ground and covered in glass, extending his hand just as Sharm did. Roza turns to the source and after clicking a button, grabs her sniper rifle and aims it on the resident of the capsule.
Roza! Attack it!
it...raise...hand...not...attack...Roza...
Roza, confused, stills aims her gun at the strange mechanical monstrosity but waits. As it stays slumped to the ground, Shram hastily gets up and runs to Roza.
Why did you not fire?
I think it's saying it's friendly.
...What that thing?
I'm...I'm not sure.
red...army...you...collect...it?
Red army? You mean the Soviets?
You are referring to us?
Soviets...come...to collect us?
So...it thinks we're the soviets. That can only mean that it's from before the collapse, which means that this must be Cossacks-
Roza...that other capsule is turning on!
Shram worryingly looks at the older capsule.

---

The Break Imposter stares dumbfounded at the pizzera before looking for another way in...

Glass kinda just stands there, thinking to himself. However, upon hearing Narcian and Midboss's words, he starts to listen.

---

---

Well...I could always just try to walk in.
The blue imposter tries to walk into the pizzera.

---

---

After quite some time, Roza reaches a locked door, requiring a keycard.
Shram, you're up.
At last...
A faint energy radiates from Shram as he aims his buster forward. With a blast, the door goes down...only for a shotgun blast to send him back upon him walking fowards. Roza grabs her sniper rifle and prepares to fire...only to note that it seems to be a tripwire-based trap.
Hmm...should of known.
Ну же! Another scar.
You'll be fine. Looks good.
Heh, thanks.
Roza and Shram slowly walk into the dimly lit room. Roza fires a flare gun into the air, illuminating the entire room revealing....
Capsules. They endless!
...All we need do is to find the terminal.
To do...?
Simple. We put in General Winter's code of control and release.
The two, after a few minutes, locate a access terminal. As Roza inserts a chip, Shram walks up to one of the capsules.
...I think this one staring at me. He funny looking guy?

Have you seen yourself in the mirror?
Hey! That not funny. Him on other hand...
Look! I go left, eyes go left. I go right, eyes go right. I raise my hand and-
*CRASH*

---

Ну же!----Come on!

---

Woe: Well...do you have something to write this down? Cause I have made a massive discovery!

---

---

As X(Cross) follows the coordinates, it seems to lead to an old lab in the distance.

---

---

Ball Met Ver. J: Yes, that's a mop. I take it you're the new head janitor?

---

---

Rocketman: Well...I wanna come with you guys!
Rocketman: My home is in the stars, not here on some dump I crashed into.

---

---

It seems to be a fellow Inco soldier.
IS: General, you seeing this?

The soldier then changes his feed to a public broadcast.
People of "Inco". I am Admiral Nooh of the Raykeeper Division of the Glow. In accordance with the Watche Convention, I must let you know that we will be taking control of this planet in less than 12 hours. I will personally hold responsible any unnessacary casualties that my troops may inflict if your military surrenders peacefully. Any rogue troops will be dealt with but there will be no repercussions if it is found that the previous government did not authorize/radicalize them.
The message then repeats...

---

...
Hey MIDI. I can't seem to find your radio signal. Where are ya?

---

---

Scouting is a good choice! Just follow these coordinates to meet up with the others!
The Roll Remake hands you a sheet showing a set of coordinates. It seems to lead to the outskirts of town on the north side.

---

---

---

As the slime recoils from the blast, a feeling of rage overtakes the slime!

New Status Effect: Berserk!

---

Quint's HP:6/20.
The slime is still enraged.

---

---

---

Yep. All it needs is someone to fix up a few pressure values and it should be good to go.
However, the scrapers are likely to try and steal from it. As such, you'll need to fix and take it quickly. With that said, we...could try to fix for ya in exchange for either some...compensation...or a favor.

---

---

Upon seeing Dust suck up debries to get ready for the Dust Crusher, the Ball Met gets defensive.
Oi! You use that and I'll have to clean up the debris!
The Ball Met Ver.J pulls out a mini-vacuum to prepare to clean the mess, seemly unaware what the dust is for...

---

---

A message pops up on one of the screens.

---

Only skipping MIDI because I want to make sure I'm not sending you to the wrong room.

Knight Man's weapon is fairly good. High power, hits twice, free target, but balanced by 80% accuracy. Giving him Reverse Module and Astro Crush is in my opinion a good combo as it allows you to deal major area damage and also allows you to destroy induvial targets with an increased attack stat.

In terms of overall stats, I'm not too sure how he ranks.

I think selling cores help to add new items...?

---

---

---

---

---

As Dust grabs the broom, Claim Chomper grabs another broom. Unfounently, this one happened to be right on top of the Ball Met. And worse still, Claim Chomper accidently dropped it, causing the Ball Met to awaken.
Janitor 03 Online. Booting Janitor personality 01. ERROR. Booting up Janitor personality 02.
...What did you mooks spill this time?

---

---

As the rocketman runs forth, he looks back to make sure Gyro is behind him. As he reaches another spire, he suddenly stops.
Here we are.
The previous spire and this spire look identical.

---

---

We do! We have openings for the following: Mining, Scouting, Demolitions, Vechicle Operation, and Delivery.

---

---

As the ash falls out of it, it seems to have a plug of sorts on the end as well as metallic strips inside of the cylinder.
Isn't that a P.B.C?* Hmph. That should be useful if we need to power anything.

---

---

Multiple buildings, each advertising their wares via poster boards can be seen. The following places seem open:
Rem's Restoration(Basic Healing Consumables), Bulk's Shop(Weapons), Fantastic Furniture(furniture), and a shop for batteries.
By chance, a police car carrying a bass-lookalike can be seen.

From nowhere, Heat suddenly feels a little stronger! 20Xp**

---

---

As Meddy explores the room, she comes across a booth of sorts where a receptionist would of sat. The door seems to have been busted open. In addition, she also spots a medical briefcase on the ground.

---

---

So, Kivatt. For the record, do you noise beings require food and liquids which can be found in the air? Or are you reliant on the energy around you? Do you even need any sort of substance to maintain top efficiency?

---

---

---

*P.B.C.= Portable Battery Converter. Simply place a battery or another energy source into the socket and jam it into an compatible plug slot.
**It occurred to me that there are non-combative ways to end combat. As such, may as well give some experience for that.

A purple Magnet Man stares at the screen.
I buy it.
Hey.
Hey you. It might take a miracle, but that's what it's all about, right?

---

---

Who?

---

---

So this is the fortress of Beta Shadow.
Hmm. But how to get in...

So...if it wasn't for that masked figure, I would be dead.
Glass slams the drink onto the counter.
This will be the last time the divine "help" me. I never needed it when I grew up...and I don't need it now.
Glass sees the door open and slowly walks towards it.
And whoever this, Lord Lyn is...
...
Glass looks down at the Manti Katti. He sees the reflection of a man deserving nothing but pity.
Bah. Look at me. Every single fight I've ever had in this realm has resulted in that foul wind to appear and save me. In Sacare, I would of been killed by that Lyn just like in their timeline.
The blade gleams and despite not being cleaned by Glass, still remains just as sharp as it was before he pulled it.
...
No. I remember the legend of the Manti Katti. How the spirits refused anyone who would try to weild it. If Lyn was the one to weild it however...
Then it was by the will of the gods.
But of course. Lyn must be one of their "chosen heroes" to slay that "Nergal" fellow. Whatever skill she might possess...must only have come from the gods.
Glass's hands tremble at his self-believed revelation.
Damn those gods. I won't be a simple stepping stone for their games. I care not if I am unchosen. I need not divine circumstances to advance my power. All I need to do...
Glass walks out of The Inventory and notes the people.
Is to train.

Glass turns around upon hearing her kick the door.
What's going on?

Consider it done.
I'm gonna die aren't I...
The figure teleports away...

---

---

Glass sits down, trying to take it all in.
Bartender...I need another drink when you get the chance.

---

---

After walking down a long corridor, they come across a private room.
This Cossack bedroom?
Yes.
What now Rosa?
Sniper Rosa looks around for something.
What we search for now?
...Ah! Found it.
As the sniper pushes a secret lever, the floor starts to move.
что за?!
Move over there Shram.
As Shram jumps onto a bed, it breaks due to his weight and the age of the bed. The floor contuines to open before a white light expels out of it, revealing a set of stairs.
Rosa-09. This...
Yup. Cossack was tasked with top military project to defend Soviet Union in light of East combat in case nukes fails.
And he finish it?
Only one way to find out if true.
The two descend into the bunker.
...
...
...

---

As Shram exmains his surroundings, he notices that everything gleams of brown and red. The lights, the floors, the walls. All of it. The only thing differing is the various pictures of nearby locations along with one of a teenager.
Hmm...
Shram. Heads up.
Wha-
*BONK*
As Rosa shakes her head, Shram realizes that he bumped into a low-hanging pipe.
Agh! You sure this Cossack smart man?
He likely never came down here once the union fell. Despite this, positive it still here.
Shram looks back at the pipe, cursing it before following.

Wait, you're saying I was a woman in another timeline?
Glass shudders to himself about the image that appeared in his mind before looking back.
...So...if what you say is right...then what happens in your timeline?

---

---

Without speaking a word, the figure points his buster at Quick and charges a power shot.

---

---

You're saying to eradicate Rick Ashley?
...It will be done.

---

---

This is old Cossack fortress, yes? Hard to believe.
Believe it.
How are we doing here?
Simple. This is birthplace of one of the greatest and most tragic revolutions to grace the known Earth.
You mean Russian Revolution?
Yes I do comrade, yes I do.
The two snipers look out a cracked window down at an old plaza.
But revolution happened much time before this place was made.
Well yes, but I mean country.
Oh. That makes sense...how is coming here help with dream?
Follow and you'll find out.

Consider the task done commander.
He and the rest leave the scene, some trying not to sneeze.

---

---

Hmm...
King, while you gather more soldiers, should I search for a way to locate Beta Devil or his grave?

---

---

Lords...
There was this one guy, red mustached fellow. I was about to try to ambush him with my crew when I overheard them talking about this.
Glass pulls out the Manti Katti.
Took a while to get to that shrine, but it was worth it.

---

---

As the scratching gets louder and louder, a hauntingly familiar shadow appears on the wall.
no no no no. it's just a bad dream. He can't be here. he can't be here!
CX turns to run as the system bot fires at him. Though a few shots hit him in the head, he speeds up.
Hal-
The system bot dissipates into a cloud of particles as a figure steps forth.
...

Glass: ...Sure.

I know for a fact that Bern is famous for their wyvern riders. I also know that I haven't heard your name before.

Hold up.
Glass turns to Narcian with surprise.
You said Bern?

Glass takes a sip.
Well I'll be. Ill Gred. Haven't had this in years.
He then chugs it down. Seemly unaffected, he asks for two more, putting enough gold for both this drink and the next two on the table.

At the mention of his name, Glass looks over for a second to the tall man before waiting for the barkeeper.
Wine? What the Eir is that? Some kind of brew for the nobles?
Excuse me, tavern keeper? What's you're most widely purchased ale?
