New Story Mission Season 2 Interlude “Encore for an Old Dream”

In the Interlude, Phaeton will receive a commission from a “big shot”, while the PubSec is investigating several cases of Intelligent Construct citizens going rogue. If we’re talking about Intelligent Construct, I’m sure you must be thinking about Banyue, Qingyi, and Billy. But more of the stories when the version is released!

New characters: Aria and Sunna

Two out of three of Angel of Delusions member will be released as playable character, both being S-Rank characters. Aria (the pink-haired girl) is actually an Intelligent Construct using holograms to display the images of human girls- oh yeah, she’s also the lead vocalist of the team. While Sunna is the composer. The last character, Nangong Yu, is the leader of Angel of Delusions. So you can expect her to be an S-Rank character to complete the whole set!

More QoL information can be seen in the video below.
