Myron finally strode in to fetch Tonka in the cafeteria shortly after her meal. He was deathly nervous, as he knew that even with her help, it would be very, very hard to save the First Lieutenant from Superbia itself. With the veteran members of the team vanishing without warning, and with every risk that Qingshe's death may be real after all, it was clear that he was probably going to spend the lives of promising new members trying to save the First Lieutenant, Noel Alonso, who may no longer be able to save Task Force Obsidian from complete oblivion. Was this the end? He didn't want to give up on the young commander; the latter was just eighteen!
But everything in him screamed that it would be better to drop Noel, that Tonka and Oscar were better used against the PLA Navy.
Walking up to Tonka, he said to her, "Good, you've finished eating; let's go to one of the side offices - Oscar is busy getting to know the other members so I'll brief you first."

The side office was covered in hardwoods, and so were the desk and the chair, with few electronics except for a desktop computer that looked like it was from the early 2000s. Myron then brought out a dossier seemingly out of nowhere and handed it over to Tonka, saying, "Yulian, aka the Avatar of Superbia, has his 'perv dungeon' in this deep shaft mine in Gansu Province, China. You know the steps made to keep the mine as hot and humid as possible to discourage... modesty among the enslaved male PoWs, but as for the defenses, I will not lie; Yulian knows what my Noble Arm can do and has invested in firewalls and jamming equipment to prevent me from 'blinking in' for several hundred miles around that place."
He was visibly gritting his teeth, trying to hold back desperate rage as he said, "I know some among us won't forgive me for this, but I have contacts; other former terrorists. We may need them for the assault, but I want to ask your opinion first. Should we call on the lost remnants of the Hammer of Masters and the Disablers?"

Refugee Camp North of Manila - 12/3/2022, 10:53, UTC+8 (Three Days Later)
The Philippines had a population of 109 Million, maybe 110, before the start of the Philippine Civil War in June 2022 and the Chinese Invasion of September of that same year. Now it was December, and five million people had already died, not just due to direct military action, but due to starvation and disease. Millions more have been displaced, cramped together into squalid refugee camps like the one they were in, where thousands had to create lean-tos of plywood and corrugated steel just because the Philippine Army and Police had run out of tents.
Not just that, but it took the Philippine Government of National Salvation and the Red Cross/Crescent everything they had to organize the camps such that rubbish and latrines were in separate areas and people did not just throw their rubbish everywhere, nor turn the entire camp into a living toilet. Even then, the arrival of the Arms Masters with food and supplies was most welcome, even though some of the soldiers glared at the newcomers with hostility for a while until realizing that they were not just slumming it, they were ready to help.
The Crown Prince was with Cristina cooking soup for the soup kitchen as he whispered, "These horrors... I won't lie; I suspect that my sister is too eager to listen to those who want to inflict them once more."
A brawl was about to erupt in the lines, but then suddenly, they were all interrupted by the radio as it said, "Breaking News! The Russian and North Korean Fleet has been sunk into the bottom of the sea - Admiral Yi Yeol of the South Korean and Japanese Combined Fleet have won the Battle of Tsushima Strait! Help. Is. Coming!"
The crowds gave a loud, collective cheer; a spot of hope brightening up an otherwise gloomy day.
