Ceanjia*344*: "Yeah, sure. Should be quite possible to delete that A.I. I guess if I hook you into your computer you should have a chance of deleting it effectively enough that it won't restart and mess up the place again. The chance would be roughly equal to your chance of clearing a heavily infested ship all by yourself. And the consequence of failing wouldn't be much different either...
Oh <Fould Lanugage deleted> , I don't BELIEVE IT!!! That damn ship A.I., going by the name, or rather, number of 344 has turned the draug A.I., 343, on us. The pile of reclycled junk-data has made 343 believe I'm a sub-system of 344. If I ever get my data protocols on that <Fould Lanugage deleted> , wretched thing, I'm gonna make sure all that's left is a pile of bits on a fried storage drive!
Ok, prepare all you've got. That alliance means that the vast majority of the ship mechs are against us. I have those four, but that's all I've got. Security's been pumped too with their combined abilities, so don't count on getting more res than is already in here. The enemy's fire, all we can hope for is that our skills are good enough to make up for it.
We might be able to get 343 back to senses. Been watching her work. She's allright, almost revealed myself to her several times. It's not gonna be easy to convince her though, but she could be a very important ally. Together, we might be able to overtake the ship network from 344. However, somethings been wrong with her lately. Those draug are slaughterers, and getting them into human society would be a catasthrophy larger than anything that has ever happened. It would make the dark times of the Expansion seem like a holiday trip. I have got no idea what or who is making her work FOR them.
Anyway, no time for talk longer. Gotta get this base building, I'm gonna risk trouble by overriding the authorization, and building speed restrictions."
The two infantry portals and the obs, along with an armoury, an arms lab and a prototype lab, a turret factory, 10 turrets and two siege cannons appear spread around the dock, and are self-built in a matter of seconds. In another minute, any sort of available upgrade has been researched. A pile of heavy armors, grenade launchers, heavy machine guns and shotguns drop on the floor.
