Multibooth's energy low. Severe damage on the transmitter. Update required. 

Calling Golden...

​

Golden :

Hey Mo ! Hey Jo ! I've been looking for you.

Did you see that ? In District 9 ?

It's all over the news.

An unexpected energy spill has affected the system causing a complete black out crash. 

Now every suspicious use of energy is being punished with electrocutions. Anyway...

I see that you have arrived at the location I sent you.

There is something dodgy about this place. 

To navigate follow this code : STG.ON

It will open the entrance of the basement.

There is no time to waste. Head there immediately. 

I hope the multibooth I tuned up for you serves you well. Remember !

Stay under 40 electrocutions per day, otherwise you are going to get fried like a chip !

I hope you will find the Enhancer Pod down there.

Good luck !

Mephi's Announcement 

Dear citizens of Alpha City. My dear fellow citizens.

The past few years we have been deeply infested by disruptors of our well structured society. As you know, electrical power is limited and therefore very, very valuable. Though our agents have brought light to data which reveal an extreme use of it, which can lead to dangerous outcomes. Thinking of your well being, we have decided to proceed with taking some measurements. From now on, everybody will have to be synced with their personal Multibooth during all hours of the day. Furthermore, we have disabled the off switch from all television devices. Electrocution shocks will be doubled for unnecessary use of electrical power. Of course, I understand...That they can be rather unpleasant...But this is possibly the last term of an organised, democratic society. 

My fellow citizens...

We are living in an era where bold and fast actions need to be done...Need to be made !

And we need you to trust us...To blindly trust us...

Well we need you to blindly trust us !

Remember...WE were the ones who saved you from the 5th raid and provided you with Multibooths that keep you synched, in controlled and numb with a carefully curated, never ending unlimited TV program. Is there anything more beautiful than enjoying unlimited TV time ?

Enjoying unlimited...Enj...Limited TV time ? 

Sss...Sa...Sa...Saving you fro...from... the unpre...

unprecide...unprecidented risk of creative thinking ?

Di...Di...Di...Disgusting people ! Low...Lo...Low...

Low lives ! Low lives !

My dear fellow citizens...My job is to ss...

Se...Se...Serve...Send more police !

Send more police ! Control them ! Control them !

Your safety, is very important and our priority. 

We are working towards providing you with a high quality life...Ffff...Fry them ! Fry them !

More shocks...Electro...Electrocutions !

My dear fellow citizens...

I request your outmost attention. 

What I'm about to say can affect all of you.

There's been much noise...As there always is...

Surrounding the so called Enhancer Pods.

Whispers in black stream channels.

The idea that by climbing inside a womb and surrendering your body to the machine you will emerge...Better...Faster...Stronger...

But let me be clear. These Pods are not tools of liberation. They are by design contaminants and beneath the surface, a disease. A decay.

You think you are improving, but you are being rewritten. Not elevated. Repurposed. 

Disruption.Fracture. An erosion of the harmony we've rebuilt since the firth raid ! Understand this...

No society can survive with citizens who write their own parameters. When one of you upgrades, the balance shifts. The signal distorts. The algorithm that keeps us safe begins to fray. We cannot allow this.

Therefore, as of this broadcast, possession or use of Enhancer Pods, will be clarified under Class A technological treason. Compliance ensures...Ppp...Pace...Resistance ensures...Disint...Disintegration...Deterioration...Fra...Fraa...Fragmentation..Co...Collapse...Collapse!...

Decay ! Decay ! Decay !...Break...Breakdown...

Disunion...Disunion...Disorganisation...Atomisation !

We are watching...With concern...
