Omega Galaxy, "Earth Guardian" scientific research space station.
"Welcome to the 'Earth Guardians', Commander Shepard~"
As soon as Kangna walked out of the communication room, she heard Gwen, who was writing a report, say this without looking back.
["I didn't agree to join." (model)]
【"It's you who want something from me." (Rebellion)】
Is there a difference between these two options?
"It's just a mutually beneficial relationship," Kangna walked over and sat down opposite her: "If I find out about your illegal activities, I will destroy them without hesitation."
"In fact, the most illegal activity you can come into contact with is the project to resurrect you," Gwen said casually: "Since you have been 'resurrected', if nothing else, BOSS will not do any star work in the near future.
It is expressly prohibited by Union law and the Citadel Convention."
"But it's still a sidestep, huh?" Kangna understood the implication.
"What a noble sense of justice. I hope BOSS won't let it slip..." Gwen muttered, finished writing the last sentence of the report, and then clicked to send: "I think BOSS should have told you that I will be responsible for your next steps.
schedule."
"Yes, tracking down 'infiltrators'," Kangna nodded: "This title sounds very similar to a certain occupation classified by the Turians."
"The specific habits are also very similar." Gwen opened another picture on the virtual screen to show it to Kangna.
Above is a walking skeleton, or in other words, a robot made of metal that looks like a human skeleton.
"Mutant geth?" Kangna didn't know how to comment for a moment: "If you hadn't asked me to investigate this thing, I would probably have thought that these 'bionic humans' were created by the 'Earth Guardians'."
"It's not the same as 'bionic humans'. The bionic humans are entirely mechanical structures, with just a layer of simulated skin wrapped around their bodies. But these 'infiltrators' are different." Gwen shook her head: "Their real bodies are
It's this kind of skull shape, and all the structures similar to human beings, such as muscles, nerves and even organs, are all decorations for the purpose of pretending to be human."
"..."
Kangna suddenly had the urge to take an X-ray, but thinking about it carefully, the guardian of the earth should not be able to do such an outrageous act of letting a thief catch a thief...
"Can't it and its remains be used as evidence?" she asked instead.
"It self-destructed after being captured," Gwen spread her hands: "And even if it was intact, how do you make the Star Alliance and the Citadel believe that it was a minion of the Reapers and not the creation of a mad scientist?
?”
"No clues?" Kangna felt that this mission was starting to become tricky.
"It depends on whether you can find anything," Gwen switched to a picture of a small colony: "The 'Freedom Road' just lost contact for a day. If you go fast enough, there may be something left behind."
On the screen, the colony formed by stacked housing module boxes is in dead silence.
"There is absolutely no way this could have left on its own," Kangna concluded after just two glances: "The container of the residential module has not even been unfolded. It is obvious that the local residents are ready to make a big fuss here."
"I'm glad your insight has not been affected," Gwen closed the screen: "I hope you can find more valuable clues at the scene - the investigators of the 'Earth Guardian' are completely deaf and blind."
...Is it really okay to say this about your colleagues?

A moment later, Kangna and Gwen left the scientific research space station on a new shuttle.
"I think the 'Lock of Heaven' promised to give me a new ship," Kangna said, crossing her arms: "Shouldn't it be in a fully prepared state, just waiting for the captain to board the ship?"
"Although the ship and crew have indeed been prepared in advance, they have not yet been integrated. After all, we don't know when you will wake up." Gwen replied.
"I'm just asking casually. If he really has everything ready, I will have to suspect that this attack was also planned by you." Kangna changed the subject: "What's going on with your mask? It can replace the space helmet."
?"
At this time, Gwen had already put on a hood and a strange white mask on her face. It framed a pair of large cartoon eyes with red lines on the eyes - but only the eye sockets.
"This is a 'superhero uniform'," Gwen spread her hands exaggeratedly: "From now on, please call me 'Spider Girl' instead of Gwen Stacy."
"Hmm..." Kangna was speechless for two seconds, and suddenly an idea flashed: "Is there no communication at all between the various subordinate organizations of the 'Earth Guardian'? Are they all connected by a single line of 'Lock of the Sky'?"
"Correct answer," Gwen gestured with her thumb: "They only know Dr. Stacey, but not 'Spider Girl'~"
"So, to outsiders, you are just a 'superhero' I recruited to investigate the 'infiltrators' after I was resurrected." Kangna nodded.
"That's right, 'Spider Girl' is a 'good neighbor' of the Keep. How can she be mixed up with the 'Earth Guardian'? She is just assisting the 'Heroes of the Citadel'." Even if she couldn't see her face, Kangna could
Feeling Gwen's happy expression.
"To further speculate, in order to achieve the goal, the 'Lock of the Sky' will probably allow me to recruit more 'superheroes' with strong personalities. If you mix in, you won't look out of place at all." Kangna continued to reason.
"Well," Gwen looked at Kangna up and down: "I am very much looking forward to the day when you will find out the true identity of the 'Lock of the Sky' - maybe there is a bald middle-aged uncle in that virtual appearance?"
"You don't know either?" Kangna heard the implication of Gwen's words.
"There is only one way to join the Earth Guardian, and that is to be 'invited'," Gwen shook his head: "The people who are personally invited by the 'Lock of the Sky' are naturally more important than the guys he arranges for others to invite."
"What about you?" Connor asked habitually to get to the bottom of things: "Also, are you inviting 'Spider Girl' or 'Gwen Stacy'?"
"Don't mention it, I was tricked by him back then," Gwen snorted: "He sent me a lot of information that could solve the bottleneck of my biological research project, but only half of them were available. The condition is to join Resurrection You
After thinking about it for a while, they seemed to have nothing to offer me, so I agreed.”
"Then?" Kangna asked.
"After he officially joined, when he sent me supplementary information, he also sent several sets of plans and finished products for improving the spider suit. Damn, those are really wonderful designs," Gwen snorted: "He already knew that I was
Who... also knows that directly inviting the 'Spider Girl' will definitely be rejected, so cunning."
