Dialogue

 Talk to Dr. Bang and Little Boo

Dr. Bang and Little Boo have made studying humans their target, and it sounds like they've got something special cooking. Go chat 'em up!

Booastrum District

(Idle)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne-ne... (The way humans work together...)

Little Boo: Ehn-ne! (It's a must-study subject!)

(Talk to Dr. Bang)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne-ehn-ne... Ehn-ehn-ne! (Little Boo, remember this — humans win time and time again because... tight teamwork is key!)

Little Boo: Ehn-ehn! Ehn-ehn-ne! (Totally get it! Just gotta watch and break down their combat — we'll pick up how humans work together in no time!)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne! Ehn-ne-ne-ne. (Exactly! That's why I invented this program to help us understand human combat — the "Combat Partner Synergy Test System." Once humans connect online and enter the program, we can get deep insights into how they fight together.)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne... Ehn-ne... (Too bad that every time we ask around, the people into simulation programs are the stay-at-home types who don't really wanna bring their friends along... and the ones who could rally their crew don't really know squat about combat simulations...)

I'm a simulation combat pro.

Got a lot of friends too.

Little Boo: Ehn-ne! Ehn-ne, ehn-ne-ne? Ehn-ehn-ne-ne... (It's our human friend! Doctor, what's that... what's that called in human speak? Someone showing up out of nowhere to help when you're in trouble...)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne-ne, ehn-ne-ne. (Little Boo... it's called a "godsend" — I taught you that before, so try not to forget it again.)

Little Boo: Ehn-ehn! (Okay, Doctor!)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ehn-ne, ehn-ne-ehn-ne!(Traveler [sic] from afar, if we've understood correctly... would you and your friends be willing to help us with this observation test?)

It's just a VR game.

Perfect way to keep everyone entertained.

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne... Ehn-ne-ne. (That's perfect, then. I've baked a few... fun little quirks into this system. It might be a whole different beast compared to the VR combat you're used to.)

Dr. Bang: Ehn... Ehn-ehn-ne. (Like... stages only tall players can beat, stages locked behind matching hair colors... or even stages requiring Void Hunter-rank DPS to clear!)

I see...

Frost! Auric Ink! Honed Edge! Activate!

Dr. Bang: ...Ehn-ne? Ehn-ne-ehn... Ne...(...Huh? I don't quite understand what these complex terms mean... It seems we still have a lot of research ahead of us.)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne-ne, ehn-ne. (Anyway, the stages I designed do come with certain restrictions for you, but there are matching buffs to go along with them. Hope it doesn't make your experience any worse...)

Dr. Bang: ...Ehn-ne-ne-ne, ne-ne? (...If I just lay it all out dry like this, you might still be scratching your head. Why not jump in with your crew and feel it for yourself? The system's live, and you can kick off combat testing whenever you're ready.)

No problem, let's give it a shot!

Hold up a sec, I've got other things to handle.

All stages cleared! Go check in with Dr. Bang and Little Boo to see if they've picked up anything useful.

Booastrum District

(Talk to Dr. Bang)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne, ehn-ne-ehn-ne! (You've cleared all the stages — you and your friends are incredible!)

Got enough data?

I can do this all day.

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ehn! Ehn-ne-ne. (That's more than enough for our research! Little Boo is already checking the exported system logs.)

Little Boo: ...

Dr. Bang: Nah? (Little Boo?)

Little Boo: Ehn-ne... Ehn-ne-ne... (Reporting in, Doctor... I can't make heads or tails of these logs and the data...)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne? Ehn-ehn... Ehn-ne-ne... (How could that be? Let me check... Hmm... Oh... Ahhh, I see now...)

Care to explain?

Any major discoveries?

Dr. Bang: Ehn... Ehn-ne, ehn-ehn-ne-ne. (How strange... Even though each stage has completely different team compositions and combat styles, the final data for every stage is all spectacular in a similar way.)

Dr. Bang: Ne-ehn... Ehn-ne-ne. (Seems like... our research into humans still hasn't gone deep enough. There's so much more we gotta learn.)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne-ehn, ehn-ne-ehn-ne! (Either way, huge thanks for your help! I've got a feeling once we crack all this combat data, our research is gonna make some serious breakthroughs.)

Could it be...

It's just that my friends are all amazing.

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne... Ehn-ne-ehn-ne. (If that's the case... then "a human whose friends are all amazing" is also quite a fascinating subject worth studying.)

Dr. Bang: Ehn-ne. (This system will keep the permissions active. If you ever want to team up with your friends again — just shout "switch" and dive into some intense combat, feel free to hit me up anytime.)
