Dialogue

C

Crowe

Ah, my friends from Endfield. You're here.

Perlica

We received your message and came to check on the geological probe's progress. But ... the entire work site appears somewhat ... disorganized.

Ardelia

That's primarily because ... probe construction is just one step away from completion. However, we have yet to verify the parameter set and data samples of the surveillance unit...

Ardelia

The entire crew is exhausted by the task...

Chen Qianyu

What about Dean and Clavell?

Ardelia

They ... started arguing first. People got them to cool off before moving on with their jobs.

Chen Qianyu

I knew it.

C

Crowe

The two boys learned nothing from their experiences and made a fool of themselves. They deserve it.

Perlica

Nevertheless, we should try to fix the problems with our surveillance unit.

C

Crowe

Don't worry, Supervisor. If the sitch gets out of control, I'll step in and get it fixed. But now, I don't intend to interfere or help them out of their mess.

Chen Qianyu

So you actually know how to get everything done! Then ... why would you just sit around and let them mess things up?

C

Crowe

I actually want to let them achieve spectacular success on their own! But look at 'em! Can they pull it off?

C

Crowe

My generation was built different. Some of us got back from the frontlines to work floors that had no materials. We ended up making our own equipment by taking parts off the lathe.

C

Crowe

This generation has a serious problem. They bicker and complain. They don't know how to work as a team. Worse, they strut around with a sense of useless pride.

C

Crowe

Hrrrmph. I would have taken care of this on my own if I were younger. I wouldn't even need two inept fools of apprentices to take care of this job.

Chen Qianyu

The way you said that really sounds like a Shifu we had in Tanjian Hall...

C

Crowe

Hmph. But ... they'll be running Valley IV one day.

C

Crowe

This disaster really changed me as well...

C

Crowe

Young people like you will be running the show. We even changed the Utjug Order. No matter how hard we try, I guess it's time to pass on the baton.

C

Crowe

The apprentices may have plenty of issues, but they are gifted in their own right.

C

Crowe

That said, they must learn to solve problems on their own. If another disaster like the last one strikes again, they'll have no one to count on.

C

Crowe

Ah, what I meant by young people doesn't include you, Endmin. You're a legend...

C

Crowe

However, the UWST needs promising youths to shoulder the burden of the United Syndicates.

Perlica

I hope they will appreciate all the work you've put in for them.

C

Crowe

Them? Appreciate my work? Well, just sit around. They'll be crying for help soon enough.

C

Crowe

They neglected too many details. The first activation of the probe will involve a certain degree of danger... But I didn't remind them this time.

Perlica

Aren't you worried about accidents?

C

Crowe

Don't worry. I won't risk this if human safety is involved. Since the Endmin is with us, we can afford to wait before giving them help. Let them have a taste of their mistakes and learn from it.

Perlica

Fine... I understand what you're trying to do.

Radio

Perlica

The construction of the geological probe seems almost complete.

Perlica

This project might shape the future of Valley IV. Let's go and take a look, Endmin.

Story update

Construction of the large geological probe nears completion. Check if things are still running smoothly at the Reconstruction HQ.

Dialogue

D

Dean

Endmin! You're here! We got a ... um, situation.

D

Dean

There's a minor hiccup with several key parameters of the surveillance unit...

C

Clavell

So, my friend here used a set of temporary data that messed up our control group. We gotta reset the surveillance unit to its default state.

D

Dean

Ah... yeah, that's right. But the machine is now malfunctioning. Repairing it will take a while, but I heard about the Endmin's Originium Arts...

Perlica

No problem. Endmin, we can lend them our assistance.

Radio

Chen Qianyu

This place is a mess! I thought Crowe said they're almost done with the geological probe!

Perlica

The local crew seems to have run into some trouble... But I don't see Dean or Clavell around. Aren't they supposed to be leading the work?

Perlica

Let's talk to Mr. Crowe and learn more about the situation.

4 Ask Crowe about the situation View on map

Story update

The Reconstruction HQ is in chaos. Go ask Crowe about the situation.

Dialogue

D

Dean

Great. These parameters should work now...

C

Clavell

We finally got it done. Wait. What's that noise?

D

Dean

What is this trembling...?

Chen Qianyu

Oh dear. Get out!

Radio

Chen Qianyu

Another one! Time to fight!

5 Help the apprentices with their problems View on map

Story update

Dean and Clavell hit a major snag while deploying the geological probe. Find out what the issue is.

Dialogue

D

Dean

Hooo... Thank you, my Endfielder friends.

D

Dean

I'm so glad nobody's hurt! Oh! The machine...! Phew... The machine looks fine ... and the parameter set looks right as well.

C

Clavell

We ... actually need help with one more thing.

C

Clavell

We got a few problems with the bio samples required for the surveillance. We found a replacement, but the sample bin...

D

Dean

I'll just lay it straight — we got the wrong bio samples. The sample bin is down and can't be activated. It has an independent operation scheme, and the inner workings are pretty intricate. We can't simply take it all apart.

D

Dean

So, Endmin ... we might need your help to put the samples into the bin...

Perlica

I understand. The Endmin will help.

C

Clavell

Great!

Dialogue

C

Clavell

Alright. The samples are finally... Wait. What's that noise?

C

Clavell

WHOAH!

8 Defeat the Tunneling Nidwyrms View on map

Story update

Defeat the Tunneling Nidwyrms drawn by the machine's vibrations.

Dialogue

C

Clavell

The new samples are effective... Oh, we finally made it.

C

Clavell

That was close... Thank goodness the device is undamaged.

C

Clavell

Let me check the results...

9 Help the two with their new problems View on map

Story update

Clavell and Dean appear to be facing additional complications. Find out how you can help them.

Dialogue

Chen Qianyu

Wow. This actually looks super impressive. You two turned out to be pretty professional at this.

D

Dean

We wouldn't have been in that mess if we'd had proper samples.

C

Clavell

What? You're the one who messed up the parameters.

D

Dean

I reminded you that the testing environment of the samples might change. And I could totally fix the parameter issues on my own.

C

Clavell

And you're blaming me? I was the one who helped you churn out those parameters!

D

Dean

Well, you promised that you'd find some proper samples. In the end, it was my replacements that solved the crisis!

C

Clavell

Why you...

Ardelia

Hold on, what's happening...? The geological probe isn't doing anything.

D

Dean

What?! Let me see! ...What by Talos is wrong this time?

C

Clavell

This isn't supposed to happen... Strange. Why? How?

D

Dean & Clavell

Endmin...

C

Crowe

ENOUGH! Both of you! Can't believe you're still asking others to take care of your problems!!

D

Dean

Professor Crowe ... I ... it wasn't like that...

C

Crowe

Done explaining already, Dean? It's been years and you never bothered changing that unruly personality of yours!

C

Crowe

You're always rushing straight into things without thinking about the consequences. True, you might get rewarded if things work, but the losses are just as great. Consider yourself lucky if we only take property damage, because the way you do things has a chance of inflicting serious injuries!

C

Crowe

You can't bear the losses. No one can. You gotta learn how to smash the brakes before you actually hurt somebody!

D

Dean

You're right, Professor...

C

Crowe

And you. Don't just stand there and gawk.

C

Clavell

I'm sorry...

C

Crowe

There are times when Dean is actually right. You gotta take a bold step forward in scientific research. You can't make progress by dancing around in circles. No one can predict what we'll be looking at in the future. And no one can solve everything with the same old ways!

C

Crowe

Be cautious when you need it. But when you need to be bold, do not hesitate. Windows of opportunity can disappear in an instant.

C

Clavell

I've learned my lesson...

C

Crowe

I appointed the two of you to lead the geological probe construction project *because* I want you to help each other out. You two should be covering for each other's deficiencies. Alone, you might slip — but together, you should be able to figure it out.

C

Crowe

I thought you learned something from the disaster, but what did I see? Boys who won't stop bickering, who go running off to the Endmin for help. This is the final stage and you still want others to clean up your mess. How am I supposed to let you lead the reconstruction of Valley IV?

D

Dean & Clavell

Professor Crowe...

C

Crowe

You're lucky you still got me and the Endmin around to sort out your blighted mistakes. But what about next time? If you run into another disaster of this scale, who are you going to turn to?

C

Crowe

I've submitted applications to assign you to the Originium Power Plant. You'll be taking over my job, and that of old Daniels. No one will be around to help you, and you won't be getting any lessons from anyone.

D

Dean

Wait...! Professor Crowe... What about you?

C

Clavell

We can't do without you, Professor Crowe!

C

Crowe

Just look at you sorry lot. How am I supposed to hand over the mission of rebuilding Valley IV? I only have six more years to go. Don't let me catch you stirring up trouble again!

D

Dean

But... Okay!

C

Clavell

We'll ... we'll make full use of these six years!

C

Crowe

Hmph. Follow me. There's still the final step for constructing the geological probe. The crew really worked hard for this. Don't keep them waiting.

10 Place the correct samples inside No map marker available

Story update

The specimen containment unit has experienced a critical failure. The wrong biological specimen placed within it must be replaced as well. Once again Dean and Clavell asks the Endmin for help.

11 Defeat the Tunneling Nidwyrms View on map

Story update

Defeat the Tunneling Nidwyrms drawn by the vibrations.

Dialogue

Chen Qianyu

Wow! It's moving!

Ardelia

The geological probe will constantly release various isotopes, sound waves, and penetrants underground. The data we gather will help scientists speed up the healing of the local ecology.

Chen Qianyu

I'm really looking forward to seeing this place restored to its former glory. When we first arrived at the Power Plateau, the place was already in ruins.

D

Dean

That's a real shame. The Plateau used to be a scenic location.

C

Clavell

Don't worry. We'll do our best and make the Plateau more beautiful than ever before.

Ardelia

Mmmh! With time, the land will slowly rejuvenate and remediate itself.

Perlica

Mr. Crowe, how do you think Valley IV might change in the future?

C

Crowe

How do I think? If these young people are in charge, the future looks bleak!

C

Crowe

But ... no matter what happens, it's the youths who'll be building the future. I myself want to see Valley IV getting better...

C

Crowe

If the people in the Valley live stable and secure lives, that'd be good enough for me.

Ardelia

Perhaps it won't be long before these young people start to impress you. Right, Professor?

C

Crowe

Hahahaha! I sure hope so! But the future of Talos-II ... now that will be decided by you, Endfielders!
