▶▶ Pod 153 - Report: Communication lost with 9S, the individual of this unit’s accompanying support. While acting alone, 9S encountered a unit appearing to be in an abandoned building located in the Flooded City and began pursuit. Strong jamming signal emission confirmed throughout the area at the time. Hypothesis: 9S fell into an untraceable status while trying to restore communications. Proposal: Call 2B for assistance and begin searching.

▶▶ Pod 042 - Report: In the Forest Kingdom area, wanted YoRHa unit identified as was discovered. The fugitive unit in question abandoned her mission and continues to run away to this day.

▶▶ Pod 153 - Report: Construction of new machine lifeform network confirmed. Hypothesis: The entity is presumed to be the core. A Goliath-class machine lifeform has begun a hostile rampage during the search for Adam. Analysis: The same phenomenon has been confirmed simultaneously in various regions on the ground. Command has issued an order for all YoRHa Soldiers to intercept the enemy machine lifeforms. Many YoRHa Soldiers and Resistance members are currently reporting engagements with hostiles and requesting assistance. Proposal: Commence operation for Resistance Camp rescue with 2B.
