TOTA - Part 5 - Operation Polophylax (Part 2)

Deep inside an enormous, ice-carved chamber of the vast Pagos Dome, beneath the encrusted frost, the parkas-clad Dr. Roland and his daughter had just finished packing up several black, heavy components of what appears to be a supercomputer into fifteen boxes, placing them into a large, round platform; hopefully, this would be another portal that can smash through the Jammers.

His daughter, Althea, having helped him maintain their lonely section of the long-abandoned Pagos Base, felt that now may be the right time to know what in the world is she and her father doing, what are the documents' plans for, and why.

"Dad, is it true that all of this is for the Irisium Project?" she said curiously, while hacking the Jammers with the portal's small dial. "I saw the words 'Irisium' in the Old Peregrinian from your documents."

"Of course, Alli." calmly replied her father. "We are doing it for the country's greater good."

"Good?!" Althea's face paled in shock. "It's a superweapon that is absolutely banned under the Peregrinian Constitution of 3154! No wonder why the cops had been after us when we left Peregrinium!"

Dr. Roland remained calm, as he charged the portal's power system, managing to successfully concentrate while plugging in its wires and setting up its geothermal generators.
