A few days earlier, Griffin dispatched a Spec-Ops team to an area of Sangvis activity on the S09 Mountaintop City Region but come under heavy fire. Gentiane is requested to send in a team led by M4 to act as a diversion. During a break in the fighting, M4, AR-15, Scorpion and PPSh-41 find the remains of G43 at the site where they were attacked months ago by Agent. M4 wants to take G43 back, but Scorpion assures her that her mind will be restored into a new body from a backup. Base 601 recovers a recording between Agent and the other Sangvis ringleaders about Plan Parapluie, the "Relics" and mentions increasing Sangvis forces in the city. Commander Shi Jun sends it on to Gentiane who confirms increased Sangvis presence from a satellite feed. Helian confirms this is the work of a new Sangvis ringleader called Intruder who specializes in commanding troops. After contacting M4 to let her know that she is safe, M16 is attacked by HK416, a former comrade who was assigned to the Spec-Op team, Squad 404, but now wants to kill M16 for an undisclosed reason. M16 defeats HK416, but spares her, then HK416's leader, UMP45, comes out of hiding to retrieve her. UMP45 gives M16 a coded phrase about "rain" that Persica might understand before leaving M16 on her own mission with a secret weapon strapped to her back. (Source: Wikipedia)
