"The Gloom" back street
NOTE:
Shay's anti-intrusion system must be in there...
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: Shay
Hmm... Must be for closing the garage door?
NOTE:
Is it missing something? Ha ha!
NOTE:
Nothing seems to be happeni...
NOTE:
N-nothing! I just walked into some metal scrap.
NOTE:
You know, your garage could use some tidying!
NOTE:
I never lose anything!
NOTE:
Watch your step, Bro'!
NOTE:
(Better take that lever before she notices.)
NOTE:
A robot-hunter trophy?
NOTE:
It's just a mask I use to protect myself from the heat when I'm welding.
NOTE:
Full of useless doodads.
NOTE:
Eww! How long has this been here? Some kind of plant grew in it!
NOTE:
Oh! So that's where I left my cup of EnergyUp!
NOTE:
Shay's definitely the biggest fan of meal replacements in tubes around here.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: Shay
What do you mean, replacement? They contain everything you need to live healthy.
NOTE:
Science doesn't sustain me. I need real food.
NOTE:
Ah! I've heard about those!
NOTE:
Put some meal replacement tube in there and it reconstitutes something that looks like real food!
NOTE:
It's not "looks like." This IS real food. Give it a try!
NOTE:
At least I've got something in common with Shay!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: Shay
I don't like throwing things away.
NOTE:
These little bits and pieces could be useful someday. You just need an open mind!
NOTE:
...and a bank account in the red.
NOTE:
It used to be. I converted it into a vacuum cleaner. Much more useful!
NOTE:
Are you hiding children in here?
NOTE:
Bro'. Never! I hate brats.
NOTE:
These are drawing attempts from artificial intelligences I've worked on.
NOTE:
I thought I could make some money by winning this art competition.
NOTE:
They're not very good.
NOTE:
That's an understatement! Robots are capable of many things but artistic talents are very much out of their league.
NOTE:
At least... For the way the human brain interprets it.
NOTE:
You can't reproduce the human creative side with algorithingies...?
NOTE:
Well... I've read a lot of studies.
NOTE:
Theoretically we could reproduce the entire human brain...
NOTE:
Except for creativity!
NOTE:
AIs can mimic some patterns but designing something from scratch by themselves AND looking good?
NOTE:
That's the only thing even you will always have an advantage over!
NOTE:
Hey, no bot has ever matched me when it comes to fighting!
NOTE:
Bad drawings from useless bots.
NOTE:
All inventors need their own monkey wrench!
NOTE:
I should know better than to mess with Shay's computer!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: Shay
Especially when I'm right here.
NOTE:
Shay!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: Shay
HEY! SHAY!!!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: Shay
What the heck is that abomination of a machine near the door?!
NOTE:
You mean the circular saw? Pretty neat, huh?
NOTE:
Neat?! That thing almost KILLED me!
NOTE:
Well you know the Slums aren't very safe for lone women.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Slums: Slums
So I built this ultimate crime detection device.
NOTE:
The way you press the first button gives out a lot of information. Blood pressure, DNA, stress level...
NOTE:
Got nasty intentions? The system detects it and triggers the saw!
NOTE:
Now, tell me. Are you feeling angry or stressed, lately?
NOTE:
All right, all right! I'll render it non-lethal then.
NOTE:
But it will lose efficiency...
NOTE:
Deactivate it! NOW.
NOTE:
But only during the day! I've got valuable stuff in here.
NOTE:
So, why are you here?
NOTE:
(My best friend! We've known each other since kindergarten.)
NOTE:
(A little rough around the edges but I'd trust her with my life!)
NOTE:
(Well... Maybe a bit less since that saw incident.)
NOTE:
I need your help to get across the Border Post.
NOTE:
I knew this day would come.
NOTE:
See, I've prepared the perfect response to this!
NOTE:
Now, where did I put it?
NOTE:
Just a sec... Gotta search...
NOTE:
"Only two types of things can cross the Border - authorized citizens registered in the mainframe and controlled merchandise."
NOTE:
"Any living thing stored in packages will be automatically destroyed."
NOTE:
"Therefore, the best solution consists of killing you."
NOTE:
Well, technically this would work but if you're not willing to try...
NOTE:
OK. The only other way isn't much easier.
NOTE:
"How to become an authorized citizen."
NOTE:
"The Border Post scans the user at the entrance in order to get a body print."
NOTE:
"This information is then compared to data contained within the local Border Post server."
NOTE:
"Each Border Post owns a copy of the data, which is replicated from and to a central mainframe."
NOTE:
"Thus, you need to access one of these servers, add your body print and..."
NOTE:
"Ta-da! You're allowed to cross like a regular Dome citizen."
NOTE:
Doesn't sound too hard!
NOTE:
Oh, I forgot to mention the deadly security equipment guarding the server.
NOTE:
Nothing you can't handle, though!
NOTE:
Well... Thanks for the vote of confidence...
NOTE:
I'm starting to wonder if that job is really worth the trouble.
NOTE:
Mmh. I promised not to interfere with your PI job, but...
NOTE:
You're seeing the glass half empty. Think of it as half full instead!
NOTE:
If you become an allowed citizen, you can start prospecting new clients in the Drums!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Drums: Drums
That's a big "IF." Those rich folks will never be interested in a stinky low-grade detective like me.
NOTE:
But... I guess it's worth a shot.
NOTE:
That's the spirit, Bro'!
NOTE:
Access the server, add my body print to the server...
NOTE:
That's all fine and dandy but... How do I do that conclusively?
NOTE:
Whoa! What's happening?
NOTE:
I got your body print with my own scanner and...
NOTE:
What? What's perfect?
NOTE:
I injected the necessary information into your DNA.
NOTE:
Huh?! Isn't that dangerous?!
NOTE:
Carrying info into your DNA is the most reliable way. No chance you'll lose it!
NOTE:
That's not what I meant.
NOTE:
Few people master the experimental DNA transportation. You're lucky - I'm one of them!
NOTE:
I'm always the lucky one...
NOTE:
What info did you inject?
NOTE:
You injected my body print...into my body?
NOTE:
I kinda see what you're going for here, but...
NOTE:
It's more complex than you think! I had to include an encryption key, a data mining program...
NOTE:
Forget it. What do I do now?
NOTE:
There's a tall building with a roof that's shaped like a pyramid. You can't miss it!
NOTE:
Yeah, I think I remember that weird pyramid.
NOTE:
Find a way to enter the building, then connect to the server.
NOTE:
By connect, I mean touching it. Those servers are offline so direct contact is required.
NOTE:
I've programmed it to automatically hack the operating system and install your body print into the database.
NOTE:
Pyramid-shaped building. Insert thingy into doodad. Got it!
NOTE:
What if it doesn't?
NOTE:
Then I'm guessing you'll be chased by numerous security drones and Tribot guards.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Tribot: Tribot
📖 Lexicon word for Guard: Wache
Trust me! I think it might work!
NOTE:
Erm... I'm probably the most foolish person in the universe but...
NOTE:
All right, I trust you.
NOTE:
I won't pretend to know anything about computers but can't you...
NOTE:
Like... Hack the server on the network? Remotely?
NOTE:
I know this sounds crazy but there are things even a skilled cyber-meddler like myself cannot do.
NOTE:
The main server is not connected to the Triweb.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Triweb: Triweb
Color me disappointed.
NOTE:
Pyramid-shaped building. Insert thingy into doodad. Got it!
NOTE:
Say, don't you need an assistant?
NOTE:
This... wasn't the answer I was expecting...
NOTE:
Look, I need a favor. A cool little robot I've met is about to get transformed and wiped out.
NOTE:
You wouldn't want a poor innocent soul being erased like this, would ya?
NOTE:
Since when are you a friend to robots?
NOTE:
I'm friendly towards every creature who doesn't try to harm me!
NOTE:
Okay. What kind of robot is it?
NOTE:
Not a Tribot, for sure. Looks like an old model. Two rusty arms plus a square head.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Tribot: Tribot
He's worked at the Border Post sorting center for years.
NOTE:
I knew you'd accept! Thank you!
NOTE:
Hey! Let me finish!
NOTE:
It must be one of those pre-war bots. Tweaking them is strictly forbidden by law.
NOTE:
Since when do you care about that?
NOTE:
Exactly! It's exciting. Maybe I can give it a try and remove his tracking device.
NOTE:
I was afraid you'd say that. You want a counterpart, don't ya?
NOTE:
Yup. Until it becomes useful, I'll need to pay for its energy source and the time I'll spend fixing it.
NOTE:
Let's say... 200 unis. I'll deduct them from tonight's fight earnings.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Unis: Unis

So... 200 Unis to accept Bolt?

Deal. I'm gonna tell him to come here. Thanks!
NOTE:
Can't wait to get my hands on it! I've always wondered how those antiquities work!
NOTE:
Just promise me not to erase his memories.
NOTE:
Oh, I'll be sure to make plenty of backups!
NOTE:
That's... Erm... Okay.
NOTE:
That's a lot... Let me think about it.
NOTE:
Where's my new assistant?
NOTE:
Just a moment! I'll go fetch him.
NOTE:
Aren't you going to do a little training before tonight's...?
NOTE:
The fight, of course.
NOTE:
You forgot again? We do that every night!
NOTE:
Really sorry... Memories keep slipping from my mind these days.
NOTE:
Someday I might even forget my name.
NOTE:
I see. Your brain is like Goga Gola's Soda Fizz. Full of bubbles!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Bubbles: (Not translated)
Cheer up! I'm used to it, that's part of the package of doing business with you.
NOTE:
Let me explain everything from the start.
NOTE:
I own Virtual Arena equipment running on a non-regulated site of the Triweb.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Virtual arena: Virtuelle Arena
📖 Lexicon word for Triweb: Triweb
You do the fighting, I do the managing.
NOTE:
Spectators bet on your performance. The better you fight, the more money I'll make!
NOTE:
...the money WE'LL make. I'll give you a share of the pie.
NOTE:
What percentage are we talking about?
NOTE:
What? I agreed to this?!
NOTE:
You'll have to take my word for it!
NOTE:
I feel like I'm being conned.
NOTE:
Hey, I'm taking risks too! These events aren't fully legal, you know...
NOTE:
Besides... Without my equipment you wouldn't get anything at all.
NOTE:
Of course I remember! I'm a master when it comes to fighting, even when they're virtual!
NOTE:
Well, "Master," you ought to do some training unless you want to get humiliated!
NOTE:
Get to the important part. How do I fight?
NOTE:
The cabin detects your vital readings and summarizes them into a single life bar which everyone can see.
NOTE:
Everyone?! That's kinda... indiscreet.
NOTE:
You should've read the paragraph about private life before signing!
NOTE:
The program includes AI virtual opponents. Bots, if you prefer.
NOTE:
They're easy to get rid of. Their appearance and moves are based off of people and things you've seen in real life.
NOTE:
However, the real objective comes only with the night fight!
NOTE:
After progressing through the level, you'll encounter your true opponent - the "Master." A real person.
NOTE:
That's what the public is here for - an epic and decisive battle!
NOTE:
Sounds dangerous...
NOTE:
Each time you get hit, your life bar gets depleted.
NOTE:
Not only that but lasers in the cabin make you feel the impact as if you really took a blow!
NOTE:
I wouldn't say that...
NOTE:
You're fine as long as your lifebar doesn't get emptied.
NOTE:
What?! Don't tell me...
NOTE:
You can die? Technically, yes.
NOTE:
But this can't happen. Relax!
NOTE:
Fatal blows can't happen during training - only in night fights. The thrill of death drastically increases the bets.
NOTE:
And when you're about to run out of health, you can escape.
NOTE:
I'll send you a reminder. No worries!
NOTE:
I wouldn't risk losing you.
NOTE:
That's pretty reassuring. Thanks!
NOTE:
I mean, it'd be a lot of trouble to find someone crazy enough to replace you.
NOTE:
What about training?
NOTE:
Expect to face randomized traps.
NOTE:
Training brings some money and experience.
NOTE:
That virtual fight stuff... Can you explain it again?
NOTE:
Basically... Enter the cabin in the next room.
NOTE:
Fight your way through all the traps and enemies. You win!
NOTE:
And don't forget to train regularly! You're getting fat-bellied.
NOTE:
What were you doing here in the dark?
NOTE:
I'm performing some isolation tests.
NOTE:
In our world, there are irritating environments. Loud sounds are usually the worst offenders.
NOTE:
Don't need to tell me! My neighbors can be pretty loud at night...
NOTE:
See this device? It's a hearing aid.
NOTE:
I've succeeded in reversing its function, so instead of amplifying sounds...
NOTE:
It's blocking them?
NOTE:
Glad to see you following for once!
NOTE:
Hey, I'm always up to finding out about more questionable inventions from you!
NOTE:
But why was the garage closed?
NOTE:
What if someone sneaks inside while I'm wearing these? I wouldn't want to take the risk.
NOTE:
Well, I passed through and you didn't notice.
NOTE:
You're not just anyone! You're the terror of the fight, the one and only Bro'!
NOTE:
How ya doin' these days?
NOTE:
Ever since we found ourselves back a few years ago, we barely get time to talk aside from our job.
NOTE:
We used to be so close back then. What happened?
NOTE:
The world has changed. We've changed.
NOTE:
Time is money, so we can't spend too much time idling like... right now.
NOTE:
You're right. But that's a shame...
NOTE:
Okay! Don't forget to train regularly!
NOTE:
I'll leave you to... whatever you're doing.
NOTE:
I don't mind a little chat, but my time is precious. Please don't waste it.
NOTE:
I better get this fixed fast... Don't interrupt me for no reason.
NOTE:
Yeah... Gonna need a lotta it.
NOTE:
Did you take my rubber cutter?
NOTE:
Sorry, but I have no idea what that might be.
NOTE:
You sure? No one else came to the garage today.
NOTE:
Well, except Graff. But he's not one to touch everything... UNLIKE you.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Graff: Graff
Can't deny that, although he is acting strange these days.
NOTE:
Don't think either of us did but I'll let you know.
NOTE:
So? Any idea where my rubber cutter is?
NOTE:
Well, keep looking! It's valuable.
NOTE:
Wait, no! I need that money!
NOTE:
Then don't put it right in front of my beak, Bro'!
NOTE:
I see! That's Graff's seasonal hair loss, huh?
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Graff: Graff
Here's high technology!
NOTE:
From the last century.
NOTE:
Whoa! Almost dropped it.
NOTE:
Don't you dare blow up my garage! I just cleaned it.
NOTE:
Can you repair this tablet remote control?
NOTE:
A... tablet remote control...?
NOTE:
Where'd you get that?
NOTE:
My client. He's a policeman and...it was dropped accidentally.
NOTE:
That ain't no "tablet remote control," mister!
NOTE:
This is police equipment. And if I'm not mistaken...
NOTE:
It's used to remotely deactivate any kind of electronic devices.
NOTE:
Cameras or mines for instance.
NOTE:
Really? Why would the police disable cameras?
NOTE:
To enter a private property safely, I guess? Or...shady things.
NOTE:
Well, doesn't matter. Please tell me you can fix it!
NOTE:
It's only cosmetic damage. It's working fine.
NOTE:
Can I turn off or damage Tribots with that?
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Tribot: Tribot
This sends small impulsions and needs to recharge itself so... I wouldn't bet on it.
NOTE:
Give it a try on smaller things though!
NOTE:
Do I look like a pharmacist...?
NOTE:
I thought you could do anything!
NOTE:
Almost anything. Except delivering prescriptions.
NOTE:
Still. Got any advice?
NOTE:
Go to a pharmacy...
NOTE:
How can I renew this prescription?
NOTE:
By going to see a doctor?
NOTE:
I wouldn't ask you if it were that easy...
NOTE:
This is for a Slumer friend who can barely move.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Slumer: Slumer
The machine told me I needed to update the prescription.
NOTE:
Sorry. Medical security protocols are very specific, it's not my thing.
NOTE:
Right... Guess I'll ask someone else, then.
NOTE:
This mine seems broken. Do you think...
NOTE:
All right, let's skip the "why are you travelling with a mine" part and ask...
NOTE:
You want me to fix it, right?
NOTE:
Hey! That's not very nice.
NOTE:
No, I mean it. That mine ain't broken. It just needs a refill!
NOTE:
Put some Trax powder inside it and you're good to go.
NOTE:
Where am I gonna find that? Don't you have some?
NOTE:
Or not... I forgot, I ran out last week and forgot to order some.
NOTE:
Sorry. You're screwed!
NOTE:
Just in case. What does that powder look like?
NOTE:
A greyish blue. Smells a bit like rotten Pampalos.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Pampalos: Pampalos-Frucht
Hmm... I might have seen powder like that somewhere...
NOTE:
You need Trax powder to... erm, "fix" it.
NOTE:
Blue and smells like rotten Pampalos.

My cleaning bot is all messed up... It shocked me!
NOTE:
Yes. But you're better off leaving it in pieces.
NOTE:
Listen. You said it yourself.
NOTE:
That bot is dangerous. It electrocuted you.
NOTE:
Even if I fix it, what proves it won't hurt you again?
NOTE:
Would you feel confident staying in the same room as a murderer?
NOTE:
We're talking about a machine here.
NOTE:
I have a better idea.
NOTE:
Judging from the aspect, this model is at least 30 years old. Right?
NOTE:
Yeah... I got it from the dump close to my apartment.
NOTE:
But it worked fine! At least, until now.
NOTE:
One of the components contains U-Stom.
NOTE:
That ore has run out on the surface of the planet.
NOTE:
It's not used anymore, but I can sure have some use for it!
NOTE:
So here's my offer.
NOTE:
I buy it back from you for 200 Unis.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Unis: Unis
📖 Lexicon word for Uni: Uni
With that money, you can buy a new one!

NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Graff: Graff
OK. I get it. But you shouldn't get too nostalgic.
NOTE:
The past is the past. Look towards the future!
NOTE:
Although... Sometimes the future is in the past.
NOTE:
About the cleaning bot...
NOTE:
Thanks again for the convenient screwdriver-key!
NOTE:
You haven't forgotten...
NOTE:
Oh, you got yourself a new toy.
NOTE:
It's okay. Everyone has their secrets.
NOTE:
Oh! My rubber cutter!
NOTE:
I figured you might have taken it!
NOTE:
Rubber... cutter...?
NOTE:
Well, yeah. What else could it be?
NOTE:
So... not a lever? It was inside that slot on the wall...
NOTE:
Of course! I always put it there so I don't lose it.
NOTE:
It cuts only through rubber! No risk to damage other materials.
NOTE:
So... give it back!
NOTE:
Wait! I might have a use for it!
NOTE:
What? But you didn't even know what this was!
NOTE:
Please! Pretty please!
NOTE:
Okay, okay! I'll manage. Keep it for now...
NOTE:
D-Don't mention it...
NOTE:
(This might come in handy when fighting rubber bots!)
NOTE:
I know I ask you to gather a lot of junk, but I didn't ask for that!
NOTE:
Are you up for a little training before tonight?
NOTE:
Glad to see you found your way to this dump!
NOTE:
Don't bother. I've disabled it to perform a cold backup.
NOTE:
It should take about a day.

I... (pant, pant...)
NOTE:
The fight starts in ten minutes.
NOTE:
Huh? But you said...
NOTE:
I used my bending time capacity!
NOTE:
Bending... time...?
NOTE:
You were late so I jumped back an hour to get you earlier.
NOTE:
But... that's impossible!
NOTE:
We can imagine it, right? Doesn't that simple fact make it possible?
NOTE:
Now you're confusing me...
NOTE:
You're right. I didn't.
NOTE:
After all this time, don't you think I've learned a thing or two about you?
NOTE:
The only way to get you here on time is to never give you the right timing.
NOTE:
Argh... I fell for it again!
NOTE:
Good thing you always seem to forget!
NOTE:
Still...bending time. Wouldn't it be convenient?
NOTE:
There are many interesting theories...
NOTE:
Uh-oh... Here comes Miss Science again.
NOTE:
Well, you've got ten minutes to kill now, don't you?
NOTE:
Been a long day...I could really use a rest.
NOTE:
If you prefer spending this time doing nothing over enlightening your spirit, that's your choice.
NOTE:
Yeah... I'll get some shut-eye.
NOTE:
You want me in good shape to kick ass, don't you?
NOTE:
And you better deliver, buster! We both got some debts to pay!
NOTE:
(I couldn't stop thinking about what happened with Graff.)
NOTE:

(I'm just a poor imbecile with nothing to give but trouble.)
NOTE:
(Just... No one...)
NOTE:
Actually... You made me curious. Enlighten me!
NOTE:
First of all, let me ask you this simple question.
NOTE:
Some kind of measurement?
NOTE:
Like, I weigh 220 lbs and you weigh... Erm...
NOTE:
How much do you weigh?
NOTE:
Bro'! You're as clueless about women as you are science, aren't you?
NOTE:
Anyway! I see what you mean. Time is a constant, right?
NOTE:
For instance, fixing this tablet takes me one minute.
NOTE:
Meanwhile, you're up on the trash mountain, looking down at my garage.
NOTE:
When I'm done fixing it, how much time has passed for you?
NOTE:
Well... One minute?
NOTE:
Time is relative. It can vary for different observers.
NOTE:
In my example, it will almost be one minute spent for you.
NOTE:
Almost, but not exactly.
NOTE:
There will be a very slight difference. Maybe just less than a nanosecond.
NOTE:
It's especially true when you're higher, thus not subject to the same gravity - like you on the mountain.
NOTE:
Think about satellites.
NOTE:
The effects of gravity, as well as the satellites' increased speed above the Earth relative to observers on the ground, make their clock gain about 50 microseconds a day.
NOTE:
So basically, you're saying that I could get older faster than you?
NOTE:
Maybe less than a second faster in an entire lifespan but the difference exists.
NOTE:
It's called time dilation.
NOTE:
Yes. Because it means one important thing...
NOTE:
Time cannot be dissociated from space.
NOTE:
You know how every object has three coordinates - height, width and depth. These are dimensions.
NOTE:
Well, time is the same. It's called the fourth dimension.
NOTE:
It's hard for us to imagine. Time is an illusion of our mind.
NOTE:
If we can move an object into space... Why couldn't we move it into time as well?
NOTE:
But how would we do that?
NOTE:
Not the slightest idea.
NOTE:
By moving into space, close to the speed of light.
NOTE:
The speed of light?
NOTE:
Hey, have you been to school? Everyone knows that!
NOTE:
Now that you mention it...
NOTE:
Grandpa and I... We often watched the stars at night.
NOTE:
He told me that we observe them as they were millions of years ago.
NOTE:
Yes. That's because light isn't instant. A star's light takes a lot of time to reach us.
NOTE:
Right now, how you're seeing me is only the reflection from my older self.
NOTE:
Oh? So you're actually younger?
NOTE:
That varies according to your perspective!
NOTE:
There's a delay. It's so tiny our brains can't notice.
NOTE:
But that doesn't make anyone travel in time. It's just... looking.
NOTE:
Right. We're standing still.
NOTE:
What happens if we move?
NOTE:
Say, you have a twin.
NOTE:
Of course not, silly! One Bro' is already too much for this world!
NOTE:
But let's assume you've got one.
NOTE:
While you're staying on Earth, your twin is traveling inside a spaceship at a very high speed.
NOTE:
One day, he comes back!
NOTE:
And to your surprise... He's much younger than you!
NOTE:
Hey! That's not fair!
NOTE:
But true. The twin has aged much slower than you.
NOTE:
Time slows down or speeds up depending on how fast you move relative to another reference.
NOTE:
So, in a way... We can say that the twin travelled to the future.
NOTE:
That's fine but... I wouldn't want to go forward in time. It'd be awful.
NOTE:
All the people I know would be old or dead...
NOTE:
Can't we go back instead? Is that possible?
NOTE:
Notice what I said. To go into the future, we'd need to reach a speed close to the speed of light.
NOTE:
Now, what would happen if we could exactly reach the speed of light?
NOTE:
I guess we would disintegrate. Our body couldn't take it.
NOTE:
Neither would our mind. We'd go crazy.
NOTE:
Possibly. But you're making a common thinking mistake.
NOTE:
You wouldn't need to move straight forward to gain speed!
NOTE:
A vessel could be moving back and forth, increasing progressively and ever so slightly that the movement itself wouldn't be perceived by the mind and body.
NOTE:
You mean...like our reflection previously?
NOTE:
Space in the vessel would shrink, including all objects inside.
NOTE:
You reach the speed of light...and enter a wormhole.
NOTE:
From there, you get access to the whole world history.
NOTE:
You can land anywhere you want. Or should I say, any time!
NOTE:
Can you just picture it?
NOTE:
Right now...the only thing in my mind is a headache.
NOTE:
We may need to go back in time, all right...
NOTE:
Why are you saying that?
NOTE:
Quick! In the cabin!
NOTE:
You're making it sound like it's an everyday job.
NOTE:
I'm risking my life for some credits!
NOTE:
Nah. You can't die!
NOTE:
Why are you always so confident I'll never get killed... or worse...?
NOTE:
Like this morning, when you sent me to hack a border post full of deadly bots and lasers?
NOTE:
Or when you set up that giant saw that I barely escaped from?
NOTE:
I was lucky to make it out alive!
NOTE:
What a silly question! That's because I know the...
NOTE:
I mean... I know you.
NOTE:
Okay... Thanks Shay.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: Shay
You're a great friend.
NOTE:
I'll never forgive you for this.
NOTE:
I'm sure you will. Ya need the money I can get from the next fights, yeah...?
NOTE:
I really needed this money. Too bad...
NOTE:
Hey, Bro'! What's up?
NOTE:
Sorry, I'm super busy here.
NOTE:
Can you come back later?
NOTE:
Oh! But maybe you can help!
NOTE:
You see, I'm looking for some materials.
NOTE:
But my usual provider is on vacation, so...
NOTE:
What an idiot. At a time like this...
NOTE:
Anyway. You should find everything around here. I could do it myself but...
NOTE:
You know, I'm working on a project of utmost importance.
NOTE:
Well, you know, you know... That's an expression.
NOTE:
Of course you don't know. At least, not yet...
NOTE:
Can I just get a word in?
NOTE:
Did you forget? You're the one who asked me to come!
NOTE:
Ah yes! I expected you to come earlier.
NOTE:
So! When will you ask?
NOTE:
I get it now. Events got altered.
NOTE:
I need you to go see this hacker named "The Gloom".

I've transferred you the money. Can you do this for me?

Talking to you always feels like I missed an episode.
NOTE:
No worries! You'll catch up!
NOTE:
I need a self-modifier chip. Any dice?
NOTE:
I could never tell!
NOTE:
What's your secret?
NOTE:
Oh, I know! You've been made up of data gathered from the Triweb, huh?
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Triweb: Triweb
You don't look so good, though. Here, have this charging cable.
NOTE:
Hey! I'm no machine!
NOTE:
You're sure? You're the real deal...?
NOTE:
Awww... What a disappointment.
NOTE:
I could have you at my disposal, at all times.
NOTE:
My self-modifier chip!
NOTE:
It's a very specific kind of device. I couldn't make one but...
NOTE:
"The Gloom." He might help.
NOTE:
So... Can you make me that chip?
NOTE:
Have you been listening?
NOTE:
I can't but I know someone. Go see him.
NOTE:
Need help with somethin'?
NOTE:
Actually, yes! Gotta finish this super important project for tomorrow.
NOTE:
And it's nowhere near complete. Time flew by waaay too fast.
NOTE:
It's not as if your life depends on it.
NOTE:
Not just mine. Yours too...and maybe even the whole universe.
NOTE:
...just joking! Anyway...
NOTE:
I'm lacking some pieces and materials. Some of them are crucial.
NOTE:
I could order them new through the Express Delivery Tube but...
NOTE:
But you're as broke as me.
NOTE:
Besides, we're surrounded by junkyards full of hidden treasures!
NOTE:
So, what do you need?
NOTE:
I've transferred the list to... that antique device of yours you call a mobile.
NOTE:
Can't promise to look into this right now but who knows.
NOTE:
Might stumble upon some of these along the way.
NOTE:
Hope you pay good money!
NOTE:
What? You wanna get paid?!
NOTE:
I'm doing this all for you, buster! You oughta be more grateful!
NOTE:
Okay. I'll pay you on a case-by-case basis.
NOTE:
By the way... Take this!
NOTE:
Is that a... super-duper high-tech remote controller?
NOTE:
Nope. Just a high-tech radar!
NOTE:
I've programmed it to locate the pieces I need. Just hold it and open your ears.
NOTE:
The noisier it gets, the closer you are!
NOTE:
Keep in mind - I need the pieces before this evening.
NOTE:
Now, scoot! My time is precious!
NOTE:
(She's right, though. Busy day ahead...)
NOTE:
Oh, wait! Before I forget...
NOTE:
Let me reset Bolt.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Bolt: Bolt
I'd be - delighted to - help you, Master!

NOTE:
So, will you help me collect those materials?

No. I'll help - collect ads!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Ads: Anzeigen
Bring me the pieces as soon as you can! I'll pay immediately.
NOTE:
Damaged or not, doesn't matter. I'll manage.
NOTE:
Do you absolutely need all of them?
NOTE:
Well... If one or two are missing, I'll order them new.
NOTE:
Still. The more you find, the better!
NOTE:
So who's this guy who can help with the chip?
NOTE:
He's into many illegal activities.
NOTE:
Hacking and unauthorized electronics are his domain.
NOTE:
I...had to resort to using him a few times.
NOTE:
And here I thought you were irreproachable!
NOTE:
I am! Most of the time.
NOTE:
Not blaming you. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
NOTE:
How can I locate him?
NOTE:
Hackers don't particularly want to be found.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Hacker: Hacker
Not by the authorities, anyway.
NOTE:
I told you I didn't have the time...
NOTE:
...but I just can't refuse you when you make that face.
NOTE:
I'll locate him for you. Through my previous contacts, I can trace his signature on the Triweb.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Triweb: Triweb
Awesome! You're a life saver!
NOTE:
Ain't that the truth!
NOTE:
When it comes to life saving... Pretty sure you'll return the favor soon.
NOTE:
Hope not! That means you'd be in danger!
NOTE:
It was easier than I thought.
NOTE:
Here's his current location.
NOTE:
Thanks! You're the best!
NOTE:
Somehow I doubt this statement is true, but I'll take it anyway!
NOTE:
Just... be careful, okay? He's always hiding in the worst possible places.
NOTE:
Did you forget who you're talking to?
NOTE:
That's what I'm afraid of...
NOTE:
Believe me. This is a bad idea.
NOTE:
I've been through a lot of situations. I'll be fine.
NOTE:
Maybe not this time...
NOTE:
I'm serious. I still need you alive in the immediate future and in the...
NOTE:
You're saying a lot of weird things. Even more than usual.
NOTE:
Must be tired. Still got a lot to finish up.
NOTE:
If there's anything... You know you can tell...

Please don't insist. I gave you the info you needed, didn't I?

"The Gloom"... Okay.

Talking about that... You better prepare yourself.

Tomorrow will be even more eventful.

How could you possibly know that?
NOTE:
I know you. That's all!
NOTE:
So! Looks like you didn't bring me all the materials I need yet.
NOTE:
If you intend to scout the city, this is your last chance.
NOTE:
But... Ain't I supposed to be fighting...?
NOTE:
It's been postponed. A new challenger coming at the last minute...
NOTE:
I need those materials before the fight, final deadline!
NOTE:
What happens if I don't?
NOTE:
I'll order mint ones with fast delivery but those are super expensive.
NOTE:
If I can't afford them...

I'll have to make do but...
NOTE:
You look oddly nervous. You okay?
NOTE:
Just... get those materials! If you can.

If not, that's fine.

After all, it's not like the whole universe and space-time are relying on it!

Hey, I got some of the thingies you requested!

I need all of them!

Whatever. Let me see.

Yeah... I can work with these.

Erm... What's this?

Something you asked for?

Oh well. I'll eat it later.
NOTE:
There ya go! Take this!
NOTE:
You found all the materials?
NOTE:
That's all? "Good?"
NOTE:
You just literally saved the world! No, the universe!

Oh but I'm not. Who knows what would have happened if you hadn't found them.

Here's your remuneration.

That oughta buy an Antburger or two...

So! Ready for the fight?
NOTE:
Afraid not. Can we start the fight?
NOTE:
I should have guessed you'd enjoy brawling more than a treasure hunt.
NOTE:
I'll continue searching.
NOTE:
Will you be okay without those materials?
NOTE:
I hope so. But you made your decision.
NOTE:
Alright. Time to fight!
NOTE:
I love your enthusiasm!
NOTE:
Be careful, though! That new challenger comes from nowhere and looks very strong.
NOTE:
No worries! I don't intend to die today.
NOTE:
Well, I'll remind you to quit if things go wrong!
NOTE:
Silly you! If only you had good life insurance.

I won't be available tomorrow.

I just... need time for myself.

Focusing on your new invention?

Oh! Before I forget!

"Open me when desperate"?!

There's something you're not telling me...

Don't worry! It's...
