2: Quiet Footsteps

You've penetrated the security net. Good. I now have access to this terminal, and my probe algorithms are entering the pathetic domain of their AI.

Ah, I've found the uplink station. Once I cantrol that, I can gain control of the installation. Annihilation awaits these Pfhor, but they don't know it yet. It seems you were fast enought to disable the alarm system. I detect no response to your infiltration as yet.

Study this map. There is a pattern buffer here. I would suggest using it. We wouldn't want all this effort to go for nothing, now would we? I didn't think so.

I will be beaming down a new chip for you. From what I have discovered so far in the network, I have commenced manufacturing the chip necessary to give me access to the vital portions of the base AI. I cannot place the chip in any of the tunnels, so try to make it to the surface where I can get the chip to you. Once you have the chip, it must be placed here. Once you do this, head for the surface again. I'll try to beam up what's left of you.

Head for the surface! I will extract you. Emergency! The Pfhor have counterattacked and have beamed aboard my ship. My defenses have been made inoperative. Return to the surface.
