Mission 27: Investigate Wilde activity in Bretonia and Kusari Phase Two: Investigate Aoi Iseijin activity in the Kusari-Liberty corridor.
Your loyal servant Adrian here,
Adrian would like to report a very strange Kempeitai[guncam] playing his game in Liberty. We have met him with an 5th officer[guncam] at the New York gate in Colorado. That Kusarian spook was arguing with the Navy officer over who should be allowed to kill me. Once I killed the 5th I escaped the Kusarian, who said he was on a special mission in Liberty to hunt Liberty Rogues and Lane Hackers. Later on I have sought him out with Mr Domingo Espada to learn more about his unusual appearance. During questioning I have learned enough to suspect he has was doing something like a loyalty test, most likely for a Kusarian cell of Wilde. Adrian's suspicions were confirmed when a new hostile[guncam] uncloaked at the scene. We have fought bravely and killed the presumably infested Kusarian traitor[guncam]. Unfortunately, Adrian made a mistake. He foolishly put faith in Mr Espada's skills and as a result we lost two ships.
P.S. I must say it is quite peculiar how Wilde are seeking out their followers.
Zugaikotsu: Perfect. That is what I need. You know, my boss wants me to hunt these people. So I see this as a perfect opportunity. What do you say, Hacker? Adrian Malprave: Oh my oh my... Zugaikotsu: Correct. The Hacker is mine. Adrian Malprave: Brave... Indeed. Very brave. Zugaikotsu: Naive... Little coward... Just surrender... God... Adrian Malprave: Bye bye. ...escaped out of combat in order to return later for further questioning... Zugaikotsu: Your ass is mine. Adrian Malprave: This is very impolite. Zugaikotsu: Politeness isn't my strong suit. Adrian Malprave: Nor intelligence, this we know already. And what you're really looking here for? Zugaikotsu: I will take it myself or you can hand it to me. Adrian Malprave: The question is: why does Kusari sends their spooks here to hunt criminals. It does not make any sense. Zugaikotsu: It doesn't have to. Adrian Malprave: Are you some kind of disgraced petty officer just looking for a death? Zugaikotsu: I'd be incapable then, I didn't die yet, can't say the same about many others. Adrian Malprave: This is your ego talking. With this attitude it is just a matter of time you meet someone better or too many. Zugaikotsu: Oh that is for sure. You're nothing but a key to me. Adrian Malprave: So it is nothing personal? Zugaikotsu: Nothing personal at all. Adrian Malprave: And I am a key to what? Zugaikotsu: That is none of your business. Adrian Malprave: None of my business? But you're here, in Liberty. This is my business. Zugaikotsu: And shooting you is mine. Adrian Malprave: You're very monotone. Zugaikotsu: Straightforward. Adrian Malprave: But since in your perception I am already dead... Zugaikotsu: Then surrender and I might have some mercy. Adrian Malprave: Maybe before you kill me you can shed some light on why do you need to kill us, Hackers. Zugaikotsu: I'd prefer you to decide whether it is life or death that you choose. Adrian Malprave: It might not be my choice. Zugaikotsu: Correct. Adrian Malprave: You know nobody of us got captured. Zugaikotsu: There is a first time for everything. Adrian Malprave: Even if I wanted... we have those fancy self-destruction mechanisms, Ageira TM. Zugaikotsu: Then why wouldn't I just enjoy popping you like a pimple? Adrian Malprave: Well, then since my fate is forfeit, why won't you just tell me why you're after us. Zugaikotsu: Business. Zugaikotsu: You can tell your Rogue friends I need two more of them to die. Adrian Malprave: So you have to... prove yourself? Zugaikotsu: Correct. Adrian Malprave: You said trophies. You want to join a secret circle of the Kempeitai and this is your initiation... Zugaikotsu: No. But maybe it is. Adrian Malprave: So you do not even know... Zugaikotsu: Who said I'd tell you the truth? Adrian Malprave: I wonder if the inner circle of the Kempeitai you want to prove yourself before likes to visit deep Omicrons. Zugaikotsu: You're asking many questions, Adrian. Adrian Malprave: Indeed. Indeed. And I would kindly like to ask you to respond to this question. Zugaikotsu: I don't owe you a response. Adrian Malprave: Of course you do not. Nonetheless, you decided to attack me when I was vulnerable with intention to claim a trophy. We are no friends of Kempeitai. Zugaikotsu: Correct. And I am no friend of you. Adrian Malprave: But as far as I know it we barely had any clashes in recent years with Kusari forces. Zugaikotsu: Sad for them. Adrian Malprave: This suggest you're not on an official business here. Domingo Espada: There's a cloaked ship nearby. Watch out Adrian. Zugaikotsu: Easy to spot. Adrian Malprave: Which brings us to a conclusion... Suiryuudan: Is there, really? Adrian Malprave: That there is... Something more to it. Domingo Espada: I think this Kusarian lead us into a trap. Adrian Malprave: And like I presumed this Kusarian is trying to join these... I always amaze myself with my intuition... Suiryuudan: It seems we meet again [color=Aquamarine]Zugaikotsu. Need a hand another time? Zugaikotsu: You're following me everywhere. Suiryuudan: What's up with those? Zugaikotsu: The Hacker called for some help. Knowing he'd suffer. Suiryuudan: Do you wish to start off then? Zugaikotsu: He's been making interesting suggestions. Suiryuudan: Really? What's so interesting? Zugaikotsu: He asked if there was an inner circle within the Kempeitai I'd join and proceeded to wonder about the circle operating in the Omicrons. He suggests that I am initiating for a Nomad trial. Suiryuudan: Why does a Lane Hacker like to know such? Zugaikotsu: Any child could tell. ...combat commences...
