*Eliminate a dangerous Sleepwalker boss.*
Agent Gray: Reports indicate that the feedback effect that destroyed the illegal RSIs of the "Sleepwalker" terrorists responsible for the recent disturbances did not quite destroy all of them. It seems that at least one powerful Sleepwalker survived the feedback. They must be considered extremely dangerous. Find them and eliminate this threat to the simulation, Mr. Kantai.
Operator: The reports said the Sleepwalker was somewhere in that building. I'm bettering they're not going to be in such a great mood.
Lempira: Thought you'd...got us all, didn't you? *cough* I may not have much time left...but I'll be damned if I don't make you pay for your interference before I go!
Lempira: Damn you!
Operator: I'm reading some unusual code on their body. See what they've got.
Operator: Looks like code fragments of some sort. Upload them to me at a hardline. If they're clean, I'll repack them and send them back to you, so make sure you have a couple free spots in your inventory when you go to upload them.
Operator: Downloading the frags now...
Agent Gray: It appears that the terrorist was carrying a set of the "Blue Frags" encountered at the concert "climax." We have already patched the security hole that the Sleepwalkers were exploiting with those fragments, so you may feel free to do what you wish with them, Mr. Kantai. Perhaps the "Blue Sky" vendors at the concert venues will find them of interest.
Oh, yes. Regarding the Sleepwalkers, the individual registered as the financial backer for the "Blue Sky" concerts--a retiring Metacortex executive--has not been heard from in weeks. It is probable that he was blackmailed and deleted by the Sleepwalkers. Analysis indicates that the terrorists themselves were ex-Cypherites who found an...unfortunate loophole in the simulation, allowing them to siphon the simulation's power. Our patch to the code, as well as your efforts, and the destruction of their generators, has eliminated them as a threat.
