Deia!
The Land-mates are in perfect synchronization.
I've finished tampering with the insects too, as requested.
I see...
The neural load is at its limits.
I can't guarantee your safety at any higher levels...
Just one person left...
It won't be long now, Alcides...
A bioroid of me...
Yep. It will be at your beck and call from now on.
Thank you, Deia.
I'm sure you'll make a great partner.
I have high hopes for you.
It'll be my pleasure, Alcides.
Alcides. You should have the bioroid handle things like that.
It exists solely to serve you, after all.
I fully understand that.
But...
Bioroids aren't human.
Even if Poseidon is not a god but a devil,
I will still obey and eradicate the bioroids.
The goal of Olympus' ultra-long-term Ark Project
is to have bioroids conduct deep space exploration.
The passengers will be arriving at the spaceport
for tomorrow's journey into space.
Deia Cides, who is currently residing in Olympus
as a goodwill ambassador of Poseidon,
has commented by saying that she has great hope
that this will usher in a new future for all bioroids.
It's believed that this exploration will be a big step
in solving the natural resource problem.
Deia...
Are you really the friendly neighbor I used to know?
Or are you a vile destroyer of paradise?
Just try and stop me.
I will stop you!
It seems you're the last unprocessed bioroid left with Alcides' genes.
Prime Minister.
As a drafter of the Ark Project, I fully believe I'm the most qualified for this.
I see.
If that truly is what Gaia wants, then that is how it will be.
Yes...
150 multi-legged turrets have already been deployed around the Argonaut.
Multi-legged tu turrets?
New model Auto Insectors.
Talk about some serious firepower...
ES.W.A.T. will provide air support while the Auto Insectors cover things on the ground.
Grow strong!
Pollux.
Brother...
Today's your birthday, right?
Wow!
Thanks, Brother!
But I'd actually like that more.
Not until you're a grown-up.
But you're still a kid too...
Oh, you.
What do you think's going on?
The Argonaut is smack dab between Olympus and the spaceport.
So it'll serve as the base of operations for Eurys' security detail.
We're using a suspected terrorist den as a base of operations, Sir?
That's just asking for a surprise attack.
That's precisely why we need to secure it.
What will the Poseidon ambassador be doing?
Apparently they won't disclose that info.
Sounds like Poseidon's going to handle her security.
What a pain.
Can't we monitor her ourselves?
We're going to have an FBI agent on board.
How are you feeling, Ambassador?
Very well.
Everything is progressing just like you wanted.
You're about to make yourself a hero... Are you excited?
You'll become the hero of Olympus,
and Poseidon will gain the trust and benefit of the old superpowers.
That's our business deal.
Deia...
Don 't strain yourself.
This isn't about Deia.
The Bronze Bird incident proved that Poseidon is secretly pulling the strings.
Still, if Deia really is Alcides' wife, then I feel like she isn't through yet.
Indeed, she probably has a personal grudge against Olympus.
There's no way for us to know just who she really is and what she's done.
But the Deia we're faced with now is unquestionably our enemy.
A vile terrorist.
The envoy's private plane will be taking off shortly.
Surroundings?
Clear.
All right. Deploy the Guges Ds.
Commence operation.
109. 113. Commence operation.
109,over
113, over.
The ambassador's actions remain unchanged.
Still en route for Poseidon via scheduled course.
Continue to monitor her.
Understood.
Is something wrong, Ambassador?
Ambassador?
The Poseidon plane? What about the ambassador?
A naval search is underway.
To think that they would take direct action...
What are they thinking?
The project's failure would be disadvantageous for Poseidon as well.
Perhaps Poseidon isn't responsible.
You mean a personal vendetta? That's absurd. What would she be left with?
Wait, if obliteration is her goal, then it all fits.
Might the eradication of Alcides' genes have been her real aim all along?
I assume none of the candidates' genes are backed up in Tartaros?
Correct.
They were disposed of due to the cryogenic problems
that arose after the skyjack incident.
Only the genes in Eurys are left.
So she's willing to embroil the whole world in this
just to strike a single target...
What is it?
Gaia requests a meeting.
Gaia does?
The Poseidon plane has been attacked.
And the ambassador?!
Currently missing. A search is underway in the surrounding waters.
Keep a sharp eye on the envoy's plane!
I'm here.
I hear the Poseidon plane's been shot down.
I thought our business deal was finished.
The deal between you and me was.
She's running the show now. Ask her for the details.
Professor Leon?!
I've found you.
The plane's anti-satellite cloaking system is being disabled!
What?!
The security control net is being hacked!
What is it?!
The Auto Insectors...!
Our home...!
Let's get outta here, Brother!
It's no use! It's continuing to hack into the control network!
We can't pre-empt it! It has the processing power of a Hekatoncheires!
A Hekatoncheires...
Deia's nearby!
113!109!
Take out the enemy Hekatoncheires!
Roger
We're counting on you.
Look for her, Briareos!
Just try and stop me.
Where? Where are you, Deia?!
I will curse god and end the bioroids.
I've disposed of all the frozen embryos that were in here.
Now 3000 people's worth of Alcides' genes just go poof.
Good work. I'll handle things from here.
Found her!
Enemy dead-ahead! ETA, 08:00 hours!
Don't get hasty. You'll leave yourself open.
I'll cover your blind spots.
With all the eyes I have?
Even with them you can't see everything!
Here she comes!
Deia!
This place should be safe.
Now just stay here and hide.
What about you?
I'm gonna take a look outside.
Don't worry. I have this.
Stay right here.
Those bastards...!
I won't let you get in my way!
I have your back, Briareos!
I won't let you get in my way!
Brother...
What happened to Alcides?!
Things went exactly as planned, Deia. Well done.
The envoy's plane has cleared the danger area!
Disarm immediately!
It's over.
You can't chase him any more!
Yes...
It's over.
The envoy's plane...
It's been shot down...
The other Landmate...
it's all over now, Alcides...
I am a sinful woman who has betrayed my husband
and brought ruin to the Argonauts...
