"Hey!" "Over here!" "Hey!" "no!" "Hey!" "Are you okay?" "!" "What is it?" "Look!" "It's..." "What the..." "This is a message plate." "Its message is a warning to us who live today from an unknown civilization built long ago that vanished into the distant reaches of eternity." "We return our arts to the dark from which they were created." "Never to be summoned a second time. an organization called Arcam was formed to seal away know ledge of this ancient civilization." "We know Arcam's special operatives as..." "The Spriggan." "This is Elf." "Red Company." "come in!" "No good?" "it's just me again." "That's all for today." "Ominae!" "and now you fall asleep." "You'll get left behind." "Yeah!" "What's with that guy?" "Who?" "Tanaka?" "and his parents called the police." "he just showed up." "He looks really worn out though." "Tanaka?" "You don't look too good." "Ominae..." "NOAH WILL BE YOUR GRAVE" "Don't be stupid!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Help me!" "No!" "Yu!" "Are you all right?" "what is this Noah about?" "!" "And what the hell is this?" "!" "You Ominae your turn come next an Arcam investigation unit was wiped out on Mt." "Ararat in Turkey?" "I've heard the rumors." "they found Noah's Ark there." "Noah's Ark?" "That's right. chapters six through nine." "evil came to thrive on the Earth that God had created." "resolving to destroy mankind. placing his family and two of every sort of creature upon it." "What's that got to do with this?" "Just hear me out. another of our investigative units was attacked." "This picture was taken afterwards." "Three weeks ago?" "Why wasn't I told?" "!" "It's obvious that it's you they're after." "It's too risky!" "they turned my friend into a walking bomb!" "And you want me to just stand by and do nothing?" "!" "The Noah ruins are very dangerous for Arcam." "I can't send you to a place like that in your current condition." "This job is out of the question while you're still hurt." "Take this time now to have yourself properly treated..." "You must be joking!" "That was a direct challenge!" "I'll settle this myself!" "Yu!" "Here you go." "Thanks." "examining Noah's Ark." "Gramps Meisel?" "We are about to enter Turkish air space." "Fighter of unknown nationality has ordered a change of heading." "Permission to land at Diyarbakir has been withdrawn." "Changing course for Istanbul." "We will contact Arcam's Turkish office to have someone at Istanbul Airport ready with further arrangements." "such hospitality!" "You here to start a war?" "Confiscated!" "I'm sorry." "They were supposed to have been told." "let's take our time. were the guys behind us told too?" "of course." "They're friends of mine. are in concrete at the bottom of the Bosporus Strait. but you're not ready to take me on yet. which seeks to seal off dangerous ruins of ancient civilizations." "He has rare athletic ability and reflexes." "but he's their number one operative." "His real abilities are nothing compared to this." "Your petty tricks won't work against him." "I've heard that he once betrayed your unit." "Where is he now?" "I'm afraid we've lost track of him." "Don't worry." "He's bound to show up here sooner or later." "Arcam's just a private army." "We'll bury him under that mountain." "Colonel MacDougall?" "that's the mountain..." "That's got to be one of Arcam's." "Hey!" "Damn!" "Who the hell just opens fire?" "!" "How far are we going anyway?" "Says the inept spy." "Just keep your mouth shut." "I already told you..." "Arcam people don't dress like that." "It wasn't my choice!" "Gramps!" "Doc Meisel!" "you're here too." "you settle down!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Get your hands off me!" "Are you alright?" "What's all this ruckus about?" "it's me!" "It's me!" "what are you doing here?" "I'm saved!" "you know him?" "our number one Spriggan." "No way!" "This kid?" "Give me a break." "I hear they're trying to kill you." "Chief Yamamoto in Tokyo was very worried." "you snuck out of the hospital and commandeered one of our planes." "You are so reckless." "Here." "The latest armored muscle suit." "It uses a metal called orihalcon that reacts with the nerves." "It's a battle suit of orihalcon fibers and artificial muscle." "It's heat and pressure resistant." "It increases your strength about thirty times." "How long has it been since we had some time off?" "maybe?" "This is an orihalcon fighting knife." "With a knuckle-guard!" "What's this?" "An armguard with approximately fifty meters of climbing wire." "There's a powerful climbing claw at the end of it." "It's got a high-capacity motor that can lift two or three people." "To think you'd need to arm yourself with that thing." "Emergency!" "Unidentified intruders at Site 2!" "All guard units and medics report at once!" "Here they come!" "Let's see how this stuff works." "What's happening?" "You damn freak!" "Get out!" "Pull back!" "Son of a bitch!" "are you guys stupid." "That's not very nice!" "The Spriggan!" "Yu Ominae!" "you're not getting away!" "he's all yours!" "Hold it!" "traitor?" "What?" "!" "you're alive?" "!" "That was pitiful!" "Has joining Arcam slowed you down?" "!" "what's the matter?" "the way we taught you!" "You bastard!" "Who are you?" "I'm Jean." "Jean Jacquemonde." "Where's Meisel?" "Pick on someone your own age." "Over here." "Gotcha!" "I guess I have you to thank for this body of mine." "Ominae!" "Jean?" "Freeze! and this is the best you can do?" "Now I'm going to wring your neck..." "Ominae!" "...with this machine I call a body!" "You've finally shown your true face!" "That's enough!" "He's dead." "Little Boy and Fat Man have failed to recapture Meisel." "Nothing but big talk..." "We knew this would happen." "It's about what we expected." "what if Arcam gets into the Ark?" "Not to worry." "We analyzed the magnetic field it destroyed our satellite with and the results have been quite useful." "The plate and stone tablet found at each of the ruins verifies this." "We have the key to Noah." "You're very confident." "I'll kill anyone who interferes." "All you need do is shut up and follow my orders." "You look very tired." "Who was he?" "My old commander." "what did you come here for?" "Revenge?" "You think it's their fault that you're like this now or something." "You're too soft!" "Don't get so hung up on the past you forget your job now. you endangered every one who's entrusted you with their lives. the magnetic fields are focusing." "Dr. Meisel's investigation is proceeding." "He seems to be getting close to the truth." "There's no more time." "The situation is serious." "I suggest we act." "We don't have to." "MacDougall will handle it." "But General!" "I'm being kept fully informed." "Don't worry." "He's been indoctrinated with the objectives of the United States." "this is Noah's Ark?" "It's bigger than I thought. but this is at least four times that size." "The material it's made of isn't mere wood either." "much less break it." "This is the entrance." "Can't you open it?" "It's made of some kind of time-stop material." "What?" "!" "so you can never break it." "This might not have been made by human hands." "Thanks for making the rounds." "aren't you?" "U.S. Machine Corps?" "Cyborgs attached to the Pentagon." "What's so funny?" "He'll be here soon." "The man with the power of the Devil!" "We are in control here." "please." "Who are you?" "Damn!" "What the hell did you do?" "!" "Yu!" "You little brat!" "You'd better not." "that's up to you." "Damn you!" "I'm not dead yet." "You must be tough as a cockroach to survive my attack wave." "It takes more than that to kill me!" "A cockroach is much better off on the floor!" "Shut the hell up!" "Protect Yu!" "you fools!" "What good will it do for you to die needlessly? we meet at last." "I am Lord of the sky." "and have dominion over what enfolds the Earth. change the blessings of Heaven to those of Hell and create humanity anew." "That was the message left on the stone tablet that we have. the "blessings of Heaven" are the sun's ultra-violet rays. you control ultra-violet radiation." "Noah is an atmospheric control system!" "What do you plan to do with Noah?" "What?" "!" "What are you doing?" "!" "That data is government property!" "You will enter Noah's Ark with me." "You won't refuse if you care about these people's lives." "Wait!" "You are disobeying orders!" "Move." "Doctor?" "you're MacDougall?" "You have a magnetic amplifier implanted in your brain." "and it's brain death for you." "you'll live about five more years." "I see why the Pentagon is so anxious to secure you." "How many crimes have they justified in the name of the States!" "They conducted countless human experiments to create you." "You are the product of a government's monstrous ego." "Old-fashioned sentimentality." "I was not chosen by the government." "It was God that chose me." "What?" "!" "Spriggan." "Where's that kid?" "Shoot him!" "Kill him!" "Stop right there!" "Smart boy!" "Don't you care about what happens to your friend?" "!" "Try me and see!" "It's resonating!" "you had the other one." "the rest is up to you." "Lower the walls!" "Seal off this block!" "You bastard!" "There must be some meaning behind the location of the Ark." "Why would it be here at the top of a mountain that stands alone?" "What if the Ark itself is what caused the flood?" "Perhaps Mt." "Ararat exerts a strong magnetic field that suppresses it?" "That's it." "we're in uncharted territory." "Who knows what might happen?" "No problem." "let's go." "Go to Hell!" "Damn!" "Jean!" "are you okay?" "where's that kid?" "They were headed towards the Ark." "He's got old man Meisel and his assistant as hostages." "get them first!" "Jean!" "Get going!" "Ominae!" "Make sure you get them out." "Take care of him!" "Well?" "I see..." "Hey!" "The door's open." "Where's the old man?" "I guess." "Why didn't you follow them?" "But..." "See for yourself." "Light doesn't go in there." "I 've never seen anything like it." "this is Noah's heart?" "And this is Noah's control panel!" "Doctor." "You okay?" "Take care." "Doctor..." "Now the seal is broken." "Doctor!" "This is..." "Wonderful!" "while arms reductions are progressing over the world... the environment is considered to be the biggest problem." "global warming..." "With Noah we can solve all these problems." "where are you?" "! then Noah will surely become the symbol of peace." "you see." "we absolutely had to get our hands on this." "Why does the Pentagon want it?" "Using it would be like signing your own country's death warrant." "What is it that you want?" "It's dead?" "What is this? but it has other functions besides changing the atmosphere." "It's such a crazy theory that no one would believe it." "But seeing those dinosaurs convinced me." "The dinosaurs and all those other strange creatures must be there for experiments to create the next generation of new animals." "What are these things?" "Noah is also a machine for the generation of life." "Doctor?" "Isn't it splendid?" "!" "Human history started right here in Noah's Ark!" "let us create a whole new world with our very hands!" "that's what you wanted to do." "Mankind took the wrong path down history." "Mankind is God's one and only creative failure!" "So you intend to take God's place and pass judgment on mankind?" "!" "Now is our only chance." "I want you to use Noah to create the next generation of life forms." "That's why I brought you here." "work with me." "No!" "Damn!" "Where the hell are they?" "What did you just say?" "no!" "You're crazy." "I see." "Then I have no choice." "What are you going to do?" "Bring a fire extinguisher!" "What the..." "Run!" "Earthquake!" "No!" "Look!" "The Ark's moving!" "What's this shaking?" "That damn kid's moving the Ark!" "I've started the warming mode." "The polar ice caps will melt and the warmer water will cause abnormalities in the weather." "The majority of the land will be flooded." "Doctor?" "There's no going back." "It's the start of the second flood legend!" "That cockroach!" "So he's still alive!" "I'll do it from within!" "I'll shoot down this ship along with that brat!" "Gramps!" "There!" "Why you!" "That's enough!" "Shut up!" "Doctor!" "here you are." "thanks." "Yu!" "We have to seal Noah off!" "Hurry!" "Get him out!" "The plate..." "You won't get away!" "And here I gave him the chance to work with God." "I'm your man now!" "I'll take you with me down to the bottom of Hell!" "What kind of fool enters a holy place with his boots on?" "Quit playing with fire like a kid already! but you'll have to go to Hell by yourself." "Very funny." "And a kid like you is going to send me there?" "Don't you get it yet?" "Your orihalcon suit that you're so proud of is like a toy to me." "Will you stop defiling the House of God with your blood?" "House of God?" "What god is there here?" "God is Noah and the one who uses it!" "How can you call this mass murdering device a god?" "! the power of Noah is given only to those who are chosen." "Scum like you have no right to be here." "You're just being used!" "Don't you understand that for them you're just an expendable item?" "Neither the Pentagon nor the Machine Corps concern me now." "I will judge their rotten hearts." "Get serious!" "Begone!" "I won't let you... finally." "Project Cosmos..." "Pentagon's special experimental unit that raised children to become elite killers." "Number 43." "I am not a number." "I am Yu Ominae." "I know the story." "You wiped out the entire unit all by yourself." "Number 43!" "Drop your gun." "That's right." "Good." "43?" "!" "I am..." "Yu Ominae!" "You're just a killing machine too." "I am..." "You saw your parents' death in the people you killed?" "Is that all it took to drive you mad?" "We are not machines." "I am human." "I'll die before I become" "an instrument for killing again!" "you say?" "You think a mere human can strike me down?" "!" "I am God!" "Don't make me laugh!" "What kind of a god is man-made?" "Noah is starting to go out of control in response to your powers!" "What the hell do you think you can do with that body made of junk?" "!" "I am God!" "I will destroy the human race!" "But first..." "You die!" "You damn fool." "Damn!" "Just when the nightmare was about to wash away." "kid." "What are you doing?" "I said I'm not an instrument for killing." "Noah is now in destruct mode." "What?" "! it'll be swallowed up by our third dimension!" "Damn you!" "We've found many other magnetic fields like Noah's." "It means there are lots of other ruins with powers like this just waiting to be found!" "Spriggan!" "What the hell?" "Look!" "The Ark!" "I'm not gonna make it..." "Wake up!" "Ominae!" "this is no place to sleep!" "Jean..." "What?" "You're right." "I am too soft." "I can still see that kid's face in my mind. but that's what I like about you." "What did you say?" "Shut up and let me carry you." "What's that?" "that's what the Ark really looks like." "It's crumbling!" "Impossible!" "We couldn't even scratch it!" "000 years have suddenly returned!" "The Ark is destroyed." "All has returned to nothingness." "What about Yu and Jean?" "Hey!" "Look!" "Yu!" "You're both alive!" "Yu!"
