Konoko immediately heads to a facility called [[Vago Biotech]], which is under attack by the Syndicate. To gain entrance to the Labs, Konoko must beat [[Barabas]], a mutated supersoldier wielding an experimental weapon. Upon Barabas' defeat, he retreats, messaging his boss, [[Muro]], that he "couldn't take her". | Konoko immediately heads to a facility called [[Vago Biotech]], which is under attack by the Syndicate.

Inside, Konoko finds scientists being slaughtered seemingly for sport. She works her way to the tower, where she encounters her first "[[mad bomber]]". She uses his imminent detonation to clear the lobby below, where her TCTF comrades are pinned down by enemy fire. She then makes her way down to the lobby, where she and the other soldiers are ambushed by the Syndicate from above. She works her way up through the levels of this building, too, clearing out the enemy, then moves into another building with biohazardous material in a vat at the bottom. Upon descending and exiting the building, she sees a van pulling away. Muro is aboard and trying to escape. | Inside, Konoko finds scientists being slaughtered seemingly for sport.

*We see what Barabas is capable of for the first time here. He's "strong" indeed. In fact, he's not human, not entirely anyway. What normal human can make a shockwave like that, or heal themselves so rapidly? In retrospect, having seen Imago Muro's abilities, it seems that Barabas has somehow been implanted with a Chrysalis -- his similar appearance is too noteworthy to dismiss as coincidence and just write him off as one of [[Bertram Navarre]]'s experiments. But either his Chrysalis is not mature, or, quite possibly, it's not a proper implant like Muro's. Perhaps it wasn't grown with his own DNA. Perhaps Muro used a sample of his Chrysalis to grow Barabas' Chrysalis. We'll never know, but it certainly wouldn't be surprising if Muro was experimenting with the techniques he would need to selectively choose who would survive in his new, post-Sturmanderung world. | *We see what Barabas is capable of for the first time here.

*Also, this is the first time we are shown the savage side of Muro's organization on a larger scale. Scientists are being killed for ''no reason'', either because Muro encouraged it, or because he makes no attempt to rein in his underlings' psychotic impulses. Of course, in either case, the nature of an organization always tells you something about the man who leads it. | *Also, this is the first time we are shown the savage side of Muro's organization on a larger scale.
