This is the entrance of the generator gangway, but it's blocked. We can't get through.
Fiona the Comms Officer
Endmin, we need to look for another way in.

When I last saw Cynthia, she was heading to the carpark. A bunch of Aggeloi then trapped us here, so I have no idea what happened to her afterwards.
Fiona the Comms Officer
We must hurry to the carpark! That area is too dangerous.

Fiona the Comms Officer
According to Director Qin's distress call, Cynthia, the Hub Base AIC Research Deputy Manager, has gone missing after the Ankhorfall.
Fiona the Comms Officer
Cynthia last made contact near the generator gangway. Let's go there and take a look.

Did you find Cynthia? She went to the carpark and might be in danger.

There are just too many Aggeloi nearby...
Radio
Fiona the Comms Officer
Whoa... Didn't expect to find Aggeloi still running around in the base...
D
Desperate Voice (Melvin)
Why are there so many Aggeloi outside...? I can't even call for help. *Sigh*...

Woah! You smashed those rock buggers! Thank goodness we got a master like you around! I thought we was all gonna die here!
W
Wahlen
No. We're making a living doing odd jobs for them woosters. Things were fine but a ton of buggerloids suddenly showed up from nowhere!
W
Wahlen
We thought we could just stay low and wait for the buggers to leave, but they stayed around. Hell, even more of the buggerloids started showing up...
M
Malwen
That's right... Those buggerloids started gathering at this place. I heard some Endfield company was carrying out crazy tests here and... Well, those tests must have lured the buggerloids in.
W
Wahlen
Oh yeah! I heard about that one too! That's some wicked stuff!
Fiona the Comms Officer
Well... Rumors like this happen every now and then. Endmin, should we try to clear things up?
Fiona the Comms Officer
I totally agree! We'll be more convincing once we take care of the problems.
Radio
Fiona the Comms Officer
Endmin, hear that? I think someone's inside!

Where did all these buggerloids come from? Something's definitely wicked and evil in this place... Don't try to tell me otherwise.
W

Yeah! Those crazy Endfield tests are messing up this place.

Fiona the Comms Officer
So many Aggeloi here...
Fiona the Comms Officer
The situation does seem abnormal. I hope we can find some actual clues here.

Hoo... Safe at last. Thank you for the rescue. I'm the deputy manager of these parts... Name's Cynthia.
C
Cynthia
Ugh. When the Ankhor fell, I evacuated the team and came back here on my own to recover the material samples we just made. Unfortunately, I was too slow and got myself trapped here... I hope the rest of the base is alright?
Radio
Fiona the Comms Officer
Nicely done, Endmin!
Fiona the Comms Officer
I've contacted nearby personnel and asked them about Cynthia. Everyone said she went to the car park.

Fiona the Comms Officer
We cleared out the nearby areas. This place should be safe for now.

Cynthia
Rumors?
C
Cynthia
That is just a baseless accusation. I've never heard about the Aggeloi being attracted to our facilities... But the numbers of Aggeloi in the vicinity are strange indeed.
Fiona the Comms Officer
How about making a list? You know, things you can only find here, not anywhere else on the base? Then we can go through the list one by one.
C
Cynthia
Well, we have plenty of things like that around here. But if they could attract the Aggeloi, it would have happened ages ago.
C
Cynthia
Oh. There's a new pulse generator that just arrived. It's probably still running. We just assembled the instrument but never had time to pay attention to it.
Fiona the Comms Officer
I just performed a scan. Aggeloid activity did not change... Okay, I guess that wasn't the cause.
C
Cynthia
Sounds like a great idea... Wait. You actually know Andre? I've never seen you in the Hub Base before.
C
Cynthia
Wait! Does that mean you're the ... Endministrator?! Oh by Talos! I should've recognized you! I was too preoccupied with our problems.
C
Cynthia
Director Qin?! What brings you here?
Q
Qin Jiangchi
You didn't respond for a while. I was getting worried, so I thought I'd drop by to check.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
But since our ... Endministrator is around, I believe the problem is now history.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
The Aggeloi tend to focus on the activity of nearby organisms. Nevertheless, this particular Ankhorfall happened to be unusually destructive. It would be a stretch to claim there's nothing special about it.
C
Cynthia
No matter what the cause is, we have a spreading rumor. It claims that Endfield testing has led to the Aggeloid problem.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
*Sigh*. We got hit by an unexpected disaster. People are bound to panic and get suspicious.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
Endmin, I have a team shipping a batch of disaster relief supplies to this place. But I need someone to do the explaining and stop the rumors. It must be someone that the locals are willing to trust.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
Thank you so much for helping, Endmin! So, I guess we'll meet you at the base.
Radio

Help ... HELP! I'm here!
Fiona the Comms Officer
Endmin! We got company!

You here for the supplies?
W
Wahlen
Yeah. I heard they got some food and stuff... But I'm a little worried about monsters nearby.
M
Malwen
Me too. The rocky crawlers in the Endfield base gave me a heart attack! And now they are handing out this weird gadget. No idea what it does. Maybe it's dangerous...
Q
Qin Jiangchi
Ugh... Endmin, we really need your help. I've explained it to them like six times, but these people always find a way to cook up new rumors.
M
Malwen
It's you! The hero who saved us!
W
Wahlen
Not just us, bud. He saved a whole lot of woosters as well...
M
Malwen
Hmm... Since you're the one who said it...
W
Wahlen
We could never figure out the wooster tech or the Endfield tech... But you know science and you can really fight! You definitely have our trust.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
Action turns out to be the most convincing argument.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
Good people, once you head home, tell your friends and family about this place. We'll be handing out disaster relief supplies here.
M
Malwen
Thank you! We'll definitely spread the word.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
Ugh... Yeah. You did me a huge favor there, Endmin.
Q
Qin Jiangchi
We're lucky nothing else happened. I need to talk to Andre once I head back. Instead of spending time on his "personal hobbies", he should be investigating these anomalous Aggeloi...
