!!!Chapter 136 (Season 2: Ch. 57)

Heading out into the Sepia Island city, Viole chooses to protect Traveller by destroying the chaser, which is revealed to be one of the Workshop patrol robots. Despite the rescue, Traveller calls out Viole as only bad things will happen by messing with Workshop's robots. The destruction of the Workshop patrol results in the robots calculating that they were destroyed by a powerful foe. Thus, a powerful Level 30 Blue Dog patrol robot gets sent in to find the two of them, which forces Viole and Traveller to run away to a safe location. Using his handheld terminal to receive help from Emile, Traveller comes up with a plan to use jamming devices in the hopes of eventually defeating the Blue Dog robot. Viole goes along with it, which the two of them drop down into a sewer tunnel to begin secretly working on the jamming device.

Khun, Dan, and Team Sweet-and-Sour arrive at their 30th Floor dormitories as they head inside to claim rooms. Khun is left alone outside, and meets Hwaryun again, who warns Khun not to tell anyone that Bam's alive, or else it will spell trouble for them since FUG currently has control over Viole. Khun agrees to it, and is left wondering how everyone else is reacting to the announcement of Khun's supposed death at the Hand of Arlene. Shifting over to Shibisu's team, they're currently flying on a ship in the 30th Floor sky. Shibisu looks around in awe at the ships, and the Archimedes, all around him as Hatz reminds him that they've come to avenge Khun's death by killing FUG's Slayer-Candidate, Jue Viole Grace. Endorsi is left wondering if said Slayer-Candidate is amongst them somewhere on the 30th Floor.

!!!Short Summary

At an unknown open area, a man in a white suit sits in a chair playing with a radio. A voice from the radio asks if the man in the white suit is ready to answer the question, but the man states that there's no need to be impatient as the Workshop Battle has only just begun.

After Sweet and Sour completed the 29th Floor test, they, Khun, and Dan, travel up to the 30th Floor, and are amazed by the sight of many flying ships, as well as a large floating ship, known as the Archimedes, that will be the location of the E-rank Workshop Battle tournament. Having previously read about it, Khun notes that it's one of five legendary ships developed by Workshop, but finds the odd structure protrusion at the end of the Archimedes to be new.

Khun and company arrive at their 30th Floor dormitories as Dan and Sweet and Sour head inside to claim rooms. Khun is left alone outside, and meets Hwaryun again, who warns Khun not to tell anyone that Bam's alive, or else it will spell trouble for them since FUG currently has control over Viole. Khun agrees to it, and is left wondering how everyone else is reacting to the announcement of his supposed death at the Hand of Arlene.

Shifting over to Shibisu's team, the group is currently flying on a ship in the 30th Floor sky. Shibisu looks around in awe at the ships, and the Archimedes, all around him as Hatz reminds him that they've come to avenge Khun's death by killing FUG's Slayer Candidate, Jue Viole Grace. Endorsi is left wondering if said FUG Slayer is amongst them somewhere on the 30th Floor.

Meanwhile, Viole's FUG team has found a dormitory for themselves on the 30th Floor. Viole waits outside staring at the ships in the sky, but is then greeted by Ran, Nobic, and Reflejo. Viole convinces Reflejo to remove Ran and Nobic's footcuffs since they're a team now, which Reflejo stubbornly does so. Nobic tests what Reflejo will do if they attempt to do something foolish under FUG's watch, but draws back when Reflejo threatens him with a mysterious power.

Warning the group to be careful of the Workshop patrols, Reflejo heads back as Nobic and Ran are left wondering why Viole is being nice to them. The FUG Slayer answers that it's because they're Khun's friends, and that despite not being able to tell them the whole story just yet, Viole asks that they continue to trust him. The two of them leave Viole as Ran and Nobic are left considering the possibility of escape now that their cuffs are off.

Later at night, Viole continues to look out at the 30th Floor city wondering if his friends are out there. The FUG Slayer suddenly spots an orange-haired Regular (Traveller) running through the streets being chased by a shadowy caped figure, and wonders if he should get involved.

Heading out into the city, Viole chooses to protect the Regular by destroying the chaser, but is revealed to be one of the Workshop patrol robots. The destruction of the Workshop patrol sends a more powerful Blue Dog patrol robot at the two of them as Viole and Traveller, run away to a safe location. With the help of Emily, Traveller comes up with a plan using jamming devices in the hopes of eventually defeating the Blue Dog robot, which Viole helps him prepare.

Meanwhile, the E-rank Regulars continue to wait out the remaining two days before the Workshop Battle starts. From their dormitory, Khun's team watches an interview recording of Shibisu's team claiming to the reporter that their primary goal is to defeat Viole. However, they're soon interrupted when Io of Workshop begins an announcement to all the E-rank Regulars that have arrived on the 30th Floor.

Io explains to the Regulars that since they have two days before the Workshop Battle, they've prepared a game consisting of 248 invitation tickets that the E-rank Regulars will be fighting over to get accepted into the Archimedes ship. If they don't manage to grab a ticket, then they can't board the Archimedes to participate in the Workshop Battle. Providing the E-rank Regulars with revolver handguns, Io announces that the One Shot, One Opportunity, game will now begin.

!!!Long Summary

Khun and company arrive at their 30th Floor dormitories as Dan and Sweet and Sour head inside to claim rooms. Khun is left alone outside, and meets Hwa Ryun again, who warns Khun not to tell anyone that Bam's alive, or else it will spell trouble for them since FUG currently has control over Viole. Khun agrees to it, and is left wondering how everyone else is reacting to the announcement of his supposed death at the Hand of Arlene.

Their transport vehicle lands at a dormitory building in the city below the Archimedes as Khun informs the group that they can use this moment to rest since the ship won't be departing for two days. Some of Sweet and Sour rushes forward hoping to rent rooms with an ocean view, which doesn't surprise Khun, and admits to himself that it was a good idea to reserve rooms with ocean views beforehand for everyone on the team. Khun remains alone looking up at the Archimedes as Hwa Ryun appears to greet him again. She asks for Khun to promise him one thing, which is to make sure that he doesn't let his current team, or their previous friends from the Floor of Test, know that Bam is alive.

She explains that any leak getting out would result in them losing Bam since the connection between Viole and Bam is top secret that only a few people in FUG know about. Khun remains silent as Hwa Ryun reminds him that nothing good will come to Bam if the Tower finds out that he's still alive. Khun thinks to himself that he already knows this, and wonders how Team Shibisu must be feeling knowing that they got word of his apparent death at the Hand of Arlene.

After Team Tangsooyook completed the 29th Floor test, they, Koon, and Dan, travel up to the 30th Floor, and are amazed by the sight of many flying ships, as well as a large floating ship, known as the Archimedes, that will be the location of the E-rank Workshop Battle tournament. Having previously read about it, Koon notes that it's one of five legendary ships developed by Workshop, but finds the odd structure protrusion at the end of the Archimedes to be new.

Koon and company arrives at their 30th Floor dormitories as Dan and Tangsooyook head inside to claim rooms. Koon is left alone outside, and meets Hwa Ryun again, who warns Koon not to tell anyone that Baam's alive, or else it will spell trouble for them since FUG currently has control over Viole. Koon agrees to it, and is left wondering how everyone else is reacting to the announcement of his supposed death at the Hand of Arlen.

Shifting over to Leesoo's team, the group is currently flying on a ship in the 30th Floor sky. Leesoo looks around in awe at the ships, and the Archimedes, all around him as Hatsu reminds him that they've come to avenge Koon's death by killing FUG's Slayer Candidate, Jyu Viole Grace. Androssi is left wondering if said FUG Slayer is amongst them somewhere on the 30th Floor.

Meanwhile, Viole's FUG team has found a dormitory for themselves on the 30th Floor. Viole waits outside staring at the ships in the sky, but is then greeted by Ran, Novick, and Reflejo. Viole convinces Reflejo to remove Ran and Novick's footcuffs since they're a team now, which Reflejo stubbornly does so. Novick tests what Reflejo will do if they attempt to do something foolish under FUG's watch, but draws back when Reflejo threatens him with a mysterious power.

Warning the group to be careful of the Workshop patrols, Reflejo heads back as Novick and Ran are left wondering why Viole is being nice to them. The FUG Slayer answers that it's because they're Koon's friends, and that despite not being able to tell them the whole story just yet, Viole asks that they continue to trust him. The two of them leave Viole as Ran and Novick are left considering the possibility of escape now that their cuffs are off.

Heading out into the city, Viole chooses to protect the Regular by destroying the chaser, but is revealed to be one of the Workshop patrol robots. The destruction of the Workshop patrol sends a more powerful Blue Dog patrol robot at the two of them as Viole and Traveller, run away to a safe location. With the help of Emile, Traveller comes up with a plan using jamming devices in the hopes of eventually defeating the Blue Dog robot, which Viole helps him prepare.

Meanwhile, the E-rank Regulars continue to wait out the remaining two days before the Workshop Battle starts. From their dormitory, Koon's team watches an interview recording of Leesoo's team claiming to the reporter that their primary goal is to defeat Viole. However, they're soon interrupted when Io of Workshop begins an announcement to all the E-rank Regulars that have arrived on the 30th Floor.

In a large open area, a man in a white suit is seen sitting in a chair looking out a sky of the 30th Floor. The man adjusts a tiny radio in order to get a better reception of the person that's trying to speak to him through it. Finally getting good reception, the person on the other side greets the man in the white suit, and doesn't find it surprising that he's still choosing to use such old technology. The man in the white suit takes the time to light a cigarette as he hears the person on the radio claim that he doesn't like these broken down machines that are similar to people.

The person over the radio asks the man in white if he can finally answer the question that was asked to him. However, the man in white takes a breath of his cigarette, and states that its that they're being impatient regarding this. He informs the person over the radio that the Workshop Battle has only just started.

Following their victory in the 29th Floor test, Team Tangsooyook returns home to rest with Koon and Dan before going up to the 30th Floor. Wangnan remains asleep despite the wake-up alarm going off, but upon hearing voices that he will not be taken to the Workshop Battle if he continues to sleep, Wangnan finally wakes up. Grabbing some luggage, Wangnan hurries out of their home to join the rest of the group that are waiting at their transport vehicle, and complains about possibly being left behind. He ends up tumbling down the stairs on the way out of the house, which doesn't shock anyone.

[[caption-width-right:300:Koon, Dan and Team Tangsooyook heading up to the 30th Floor]]

Moments later, Koon, Dan and Team Tangsooyook are all within their vehicle on the way up to the 30th Floor. Wangnan remains excited that he's finally going to the Workshop Battle as he and Dan point out that they may get a chance to see Princess Androssi Zahard. However, Koon informs them that she will be a rival in the Workshop Battle, which shocks both Wangnan and Dan. Thinking of Leesoo's team, Koon points out that they truly will be troublesome enemies as Dan and Team Tangsooyook argue how how they should approach Androssi. Koon is left thinking to himself just how much stronger Leesoo and company have become while he was away, and admits that he's looking forward to seeing them.

The transport reaches the roadblock between the 29th and 30th Floor as Koon and company are granted access to go up. Arriving on the middle area of the 30th Floor, Koon, Dan, and Team Tangsooyook look around them at all the floating vehicles flying around them. Flying above a major 30th Floor city, they spot a giant ship floating above it, the Archimedes, which will be the location for the 30th Floor's E-rank Workshop Battle.

Koon recognizes the Archimedes, and explains to the group that it's one of the top-5 floating ships that were made at Workshop, and is considered famous for his beauty and impressive size. He also points out that he's only seen the Archimedes in pictures, and is amazed to finally be seeing it in real life. Wangnan and company stare in awe at the Archimedes wondering if they will be riding that as Koon wonders himself if the structure protrusion at the end of the ship has always been there.

Their transport vehicle lands at a dormitory building in the city below the Archimedes as Koon informs the group that they can use this moment to rest since the ship won't be departing for two days. Some of Team Tangsooyook rushes forward hoping to rent rooms with an ocean view, which doesn't surprise Koon, and admits to himself that it was a good idea to reserve rooms with ocean views beforehand for everyone on the team. Koon remains alone looking up at the Archimedes as Hwa Ryun appears to greet him again. She asks for Koon to promise him one thing, which is to make sure that he doesn't let his current team, or their previous friends from the Floor of Test, know that Baam is alive.

[[caption-width-right:300:Team Leesoo preparing for their fight against Viole in the Workshop Battle]]

She explains that any leak getting out would result in them losing Baam since the connection between Viole and Baam is top secret that only a few people in FUG know about. Koon remains silent as Hwa Ryun reminds him that nothing good will come to Baam if the Tower finds out that he's still alive. Koon thinks to himself that he already knows this, and wonders how Team Leesoo must be feeling knowing that they got word of his apparent death at the Hand of Arlen.

Within another transport vechicle flying in the sky of the 30th Floor. Leesoo is seen completely amazed by the sights of the Archimedes ship. He asks for Hatsu and Anak to look at it as well, and tells them that it's unbelievable that he got the chance to look at it with his own eyes. However, he is left confused as to why there's a new structure protrusion on one of the ends of the Archimedes. Anak looks at him in disappointment seeing Leesoo acting like an idiot again despite being serious the past few days as Hatsu hits the window with his sword to grab Leesoo's attention.

Leesoo complains about Hatsu trying to kill him, but the sworduser reminds him that there's no time to have fun here. That their goal of coming here is to defeat the FUG Slayer, Jyu Viole Grace. Leesoo remains silent, but choses not to reply since Hatsu has a point. Sitting nearby, Androssi thinks about the existence of the FUG Slayer, and wonders if he's currently somewhere on the 30th Floor.

[[caption-width-right:300:Novick and Ran ask Viole to have their footcuffs removed]]

At another location, Viole is seen looking up at the vehicles flying around in the sky outside FUG's 30th Floor home. Novick, Ran and Reflejo are seen walking up to him. The former of whick asks for Viole to order Reflejo to remove their footcuffs since he and Ran aren't criminals. Novick asks the Regular in the iron mask how they can treat their teammates this way, which Reflejo answers that they're lucky to be alive if it wasn't for Viole.

Novick next asks how they expect him and Ran to fight in top form with these footcuffs on them, which Viole finally steps in to ask Reflejo to remove them; surprising even Novick and Ran. Reflejo remains confused by Viole's order, which Viole answers that Novick and Ran don't have a current place to run away to. The FUG Slayer state sthat he will take the risk, and orders Reflejo once more to let them go.

Reflejo remains silent as Novick and Ran taunt him if he's going to disobey an order from their FUG Slayer. Finally deciding to remove the footcuffs, Reflejo warns the two that he will still be keeping watch over them so they don't do anything stupid, which Novick questions what he means by that. Novick moves toward Reflejo to see what will come from a stupid act, but feels the threat of a glowing eye to the right side of him. Novick jumps back to his original spot, which Reflejo points out that that will be the result of Novick and Ran performing foolish actions. Reflejo turns around to head back inside their home, but asks that Viole inform him if the FUG Slayer plans to head out. He also warns them that getting in trouble with the 30th Floor patrols could end up being a big problem for them.

[[caption-width-right:300:Viole asks Novick and Ran to continue trusting him]]

Novick looks back at Reflejo admitting to himself that he comes off as an odd one as Viole asks if there's anything else that's currently making them feel uncomfortable. Novick replies that they don't, but states that he finds it confusing as to why the FUG Slayer is being nice to them. Viole answers Novick that it's because him and Ran are frinds of Koon, which Novick finds even more confusing. Viole states that he's in no position to reveal to them how he and Koon are connected, but asks for Novick and Ran to continue to trust him.

Novick and Ran leave Viole as the former asks the latter if they should use this chance to run away since neither of them have a reason to help FUG's Slayer Candidate. However, Ran is seen thinking over what should be his next action.

Some time later, nighttime arrives as Viole continues to remain outside FUG's home looking out at the darkened 30th Floor city beneath the Archimedes. The FUG Slayer wonders if his friends are somewhere within the city as well as he catches sight of an orange-haired Regular with a giant sword running through the street. Viole continues to watch, and sees the orange-haired person (Traveller) stop for a second to look behind him, only to turn around to start running again when a shadowy figure chasing after him appears.

[[caption-width-right:300:Traveller relying on Emile to help him and Viole evade the Workshop patrols]]

The orange-haired Regular thanks Viole for helping him get away from the previous chaser, but warns the FUG Slayer that they're now up against a tougher opponent, and that the patrols may have been established to now be chasing after Viole as well. Viole asks how they should get out of this, which Traveller answers that he's about to figure that out.

He pulls out his Emile terminal, and asks the chatting robot which route they should take, which Emile answers that they should go through D-52. Traveller asks for Viole to follow him now that he's got a plan, which the FUG Slayer agrees to do.

Moments later, the orange-haired Regular, and Viole, are seen dropping through a manhole to enter a sewer location. Traveller continues to look at his Emile terminal, and asks once more for Viole to follow him. The two of them eventually reach a room where Traveller pulls out his Inventory Pocket to set up jamming devices all around them. Viole asks what the purpose of the devices are for, which Traveller answers that he plans to jam the shinsoo flow in the area so that transmissions amongst the patrol robots can't be sent to one another.

The orange-haired Regular explains that if Viole goes out to kill the patrols currently following them while his jamming devices are up, then it would destroy the connection that would send for stronger Workshop Patrols if one gets destroyed. Viole asks if nows the time for him to head out, but Traveller warns him that they're going up against a level-30 Blue Dog patrol.

Traveller explains that it's tough for even a whole team of E-rankers to match up well against the Blue Dog, and states that their only real would be if the Zahard Princess, Androssi, or the FUG Slayer, Viole, was with them (he still doesn't know that the one standing with him is the Slayer Candidate). Throwing a green object to Viole, Traveller states that if the two of them are going to stay alive, then he will need help setting up a trap.

From his dormitory, Koon watches a live broadcast of Princess Androssi, who's currently in the city with her team getting a bite to eat. The reporter asks Princess Androssi why she's participating in the Workshop Battle, which she answers that there's no reason other than it just looking like something fun. The reporter next asks who she considers to be her biggest rival for the Workshop Battle, which she answers that it would probably be the FUG Slayer, Viole.

[[caption-width-right:300:Koon and company watch the interview of Team Leesoo]]

She points to the nearby fans to just sit back and watch her beat FUG's Slayer Candidate as everyone watching from the crown lets out a loud cheer. Continuing to watch the video, Koon is left disappointed that Androssi would actually take part in such an embarassing interview. He also becomes a bit annoyed seeing Wangnan and Dan cheering at the video screen being able to see the beautiful Zahard Princess, and wonders to himself if it's too late to quit at this point. Koon asks why they're watching Androssi's interview from his room, which Wangnan answers that it's just a lot more fun being together. However, Koon orders them to get out. Wangnan counters that Koon has even been eating the nachos they brought, which Koon reminds them that it was his money that bought the nachos in the first place.

Koon asks why he's not acting like a leader being with the rest of Team Tangsooyook, which Wangnan complains that they all bailed on him while he was asleep. Koon points out that his teammates even asked him to go along with them, which Wangnan complains even further that they would want to go with Koon over him. On the video screen, they spot Leesoo mentioning that he came to the 30th Floor to see the ocean.

Wangnan and Dan look over the movie options to watch something else, and while Dan claims that he will pay for the movie, Koon knows for sure that they'll be using his. The two of them look through the movies to watch as Koon thinks to himself that it probably would have been better to not show up on the 30th Floor two days early since it's just making him perform unnecessary actions.

Koon continues to watch Leesoo's interview, who tells the reporter that he doesn't care about Jyu Viole Grace being here. However, Koon could easily tell that Leesoo was still a bad liar. Suddenly, the television screen becomes complete static, which confuses Koon, Wangnan, and Dan. The three of them begin to hear a voice speaking to them greeting the E-rank Regulars who will be participating in the Workshop Battle. The announcer introduces himself as Io, and that he's been put in charge of the upcoming event. Io asks if the Regulars have been enjoying their time on Sephia Island (the city location beneath the Archimedes), and points out that they shouldn't miss experiencing the beautiful beaches of the 30th Floor's middle Tower area.

Leesoo, and his team, are also seen sitting in their dormitory hearing the announcement. The former of which is annoyed that they cut off the video during his moment of glory in the interview. Io continues by stating that despite the great sights to see, he knows all the E-rank Regulars are becoming impatient and bored having to wait around for the start of the Workshop Battle. In return, Io announces that they've prepared a game for them to take part in during this waiting period, which surprises the Regulars. Beginning to explain the game, Io announces that the price will be 248 tickets that will allow the Regulars to ride the Archimedes that will be housing the Workshop Battle two days from now. The Regulars start to become annoyed realizing that it wasn't going to be so simple to just walk onto the Archimedes as Io states that only 248 tickets will be handed out, and that those who don't come away with a ticket will not be allowed to enter the Workshop Battle. Blue glowing orbs start to appear above all the E-rank Regulars as Io orders for them to use these items they're being provided to get their Archimedes ticket. The orbs turn into revolver-like handguns, and Io announces that this game will be called One Shot, One Opportunity. Meanwhile, Viole continues his task with Traveller setting up a bomb trap to escape the Workshop patrols.

Having previously read about it, Koon notes that it's one of five legendary ships developed by Workshop, but finds the odd structure protrusion at the end of the Archimedes to be new.

Koon and company arrives at their 30th Floor dormitories as Dan and Tangsooyook head inside to claim rooms. Koon is left alone outside, and meets Hwa Ryun again, who warns Koon not to tell anyone that Baam's alive, or else it will spell trouble for them since FUG currently has control over Viole. Koon agrees to it, and is left wondering how everyone else is reacting to the announcement of his supposed death at the Hand of Arlen.

Shifting over to Leesoo's team, the group is currently flying on a ship in the 30th Floor sky. Leesoo looks around in awe at the ships, and the Archimedes, all around him as Hatsu reminds him that they've come to avenge Koon's death by killing FUG's Slayer Candidate, Jyu Viole Grace. Androssi is left wondering if said FUG Slayer is amongst them somewhere on the 30th Floor.

Meanwhile, Viole's FUG team has found a dormitory for themselves on the 30th Floor. Viole waits outside staring at the ships in the sky, but is then greeted by Ran, Novick, and Reflejo.

Heading out into the city, Viole chooses to protect the Regular by destroying the chaser, but is revealed to be one of the Workshop patrol robots. The destruction of the Workshop patrol sends a more powerful Blue Dog patrol robot at the two of them as Viole and Traveller, run away to a safe location. With the help of Emile, Traveller comes up with a plan using jamming devices in the hopes of eventually defeating the Blue Dog robot, which Viole helps him prepare.

Meanwhile, the E-rank Regulars continue to wait out the remaining two days before the Workshop Battle starts.

She points to the nearby fans to just sit back and watch her beat FUG's Slayer Candidate as everyone watching from the crown lets out a loud cheer.

Continuing to watch the video, Koon is left disappointed that Androssi would actually take part in such an embarassing interview. He also becomes a bit annoyed seeing Wangnan and Dan cheering at the video screen being able to see the beautiful Zahard Princess, and wonders to himself if it's too late to quit at this point. Koon asks why they're watching Androssi's interview from his room, which Wangnan answers that it's just a lot more fun being together. However, Koon orders them to get out. Wangnan counters that Koon has even been eating the nachos they brought, which Koon reminds them that it was his money that bought the nachos in the first place.

The orange-haired Regular thanks Viole for helping him get away from the previous chaser, but warns the FUG Slayer that they're now up against a tougher opponent, and that the patrols may have been established to now be chasing after Viole as well. Viole asks how they should get out of this, which Traveller answers that he's about to figure that out. He pulls out his Emile terminal, and asks the chatting robot which route they should take, which Emile answers that they should go through D-52. Traveller asks for Viole to follow him now that he's got a plan, which the FUG Slayer agrees to do.

Moments later, the orange-haired Regular, and Viole, are seen dropping through a manhole to enter a sewer location. Traveller continues to look at his Emile terminal, and asks once more for Viole to follow him. The two of them eventually reach a room where Traveller pulls out his Inventory Pocket to set up jamming devices all around them.

Viole asks what the purpose of the devices are for, which Traveller answers that he plans to jam the shinsoo flow in the area so that transmissions amongst the patrol robots can't be sent to one another. The orange-haired Regular explains that if Viole goes out to kill the patrols currently following them while his jamming devices are up, then it would destroy the connection that would send for stronger Workshop Patrols if one gets destroyed. Viole asks if nows the time for him to head out, but Traveller warns him that they're going up against a level-30 Blue Dog patrol.

Moments later, Viole and Traveller are seen on a rooftop hiding from the Workshop patrol that just arrived. Upon closer inspection, the orange-haired Regular points out that this could end up being rough for them given that the robot is now a level-30 Blue Dog variant. Viole remains confused about the level term, which Traveller explains that it's a common programming for Workshop patrols to send in higher levels if a lower patrol gets beaten. He thanks Viole for helping him get away from the previous chaser, but warns the FUG Slayer that they're now up against a tougher opponent, and that the patrols may have been established to now be chasing after Viole as well.

Reflejo remains silent as Novick and Ran taunt him if he's going to disobey an order from their FUG Slayer. Finally deciding to remove the footcuffs, Reflejo warns the two that he will still be keeping watch over them so they don't do anything stupid, which Novick questions what he means by that. Novick moves toward Reflejo to see what will come from a stupid act, but feels the threat of a glowing eye to the right side of him. Novick jumps back to his original spot, which Reflejo points out that that will be the result of Novick and Ran performing foolish actions.

Reflejo turns around to head back inside their home, but asks that Viole inform him if the FUG Slayer plans to head out. He also warns them that getting in trouble with the 30th Floor patrols could end up being a big problem for them. Novick looks back at Reflejo admitting to himself that he comes off as an odd one as Viole asks if there's anything else that's currently making them feel uncomfortable. Novick replies that they don't, but states that he finds it confusing as to why the FUG Slayer is being nice to them. Viole answers Novick that it's because him and Ran are frinds of Koon, which Novick finds even more confusing. Viole states that he's in no position to reveal to them how he and Koon are connected, but asks for Novick and Ran to continue to trust him.

Their transport vehicle lands at a dormitory building in the city below the Archimedes as Koon informs the group that they can use this moment to rest since the ship won't be departing for two days. Some of Team Tangsooyook rushes forward hoping to rent rooms with an ocean view, which doesn't surprise Koon, and admits to himself that it was a good idea to reserve rooms with ocean views beforehand for everyone on the team.

Koon remains alone looking up at the Archimedes as Hwa Ryun appears to greet him again. She asks for Koon to promise him one thing, which is to make sure that he doesn't let his current team, or their previous friends from the Floor of Test, know that Baam is alive. She explains that any leak getting out would result in them losing Baam since the connection between Viole and Baam is top secret that only a few people in FUG know about. Koon remains silent as Hwa Ryun reminds him that nothing good will come to Baam if the Tower finds out that he's still alive. Koon thinks to himself that he already knows this, and wonders how Team Leesoo must be feeling knowing that they got word of his apparent death at the Hand of Arlen.

The transport reaches the roadblock between the 29th and 30th Floor as Koon and company are granted access to go up. Arriving on the 30th Floor, Koon, Dan, and Team Tangsooyook look around them at all the floating vehicles flying around them. Flying above a major 30th Floor city, they spot a giant ship floating above it, the Archimedes, which will be the location for the 30th Floor's E-rank Workshop Battle.

Moments later, the orange-haired Regular, and Viole, are seen dropping through a manhole to enter a sewer location. The orange-haired Regular continues to look at his Emile terminal, and asks once more for Viole to follow him. The two of them eventually reach a room where the orange-haired Regular pulls out his Inventory Pocket to set up jamming devices all around them.

Viole asks what the purpose of the devices are for, which the orange-haired Regular answers that he plans to jam the shinsoo flow in the area so that transmissions amongst the patrol robots can't be sent to one another.

Viole asks if nows the time for him to head out, but the orange-haired Regular warns him that they're going up against a level-30 Blue Dog patrol.

The orange-haired Regular explains that it's tough for even a whole team of E-rankers to match up well against the Blue Dog, and states that their only real would be if the Zahard Princess, Androssi, or the FUG Slayer, Viole, was with them (he still doesn't know that the one standing with him is the Slayer Candidate). Throwing a green object to Viole, the orange-haired Regular states that if the two of them are going to stay alive, then he will need help setting up a trap.
