The players were surprised to find a familiar figure blocking their way.
"Ah! It's Song Zhaomei, why is she here? Wasn't she at Plaza One?"
"Oh, I get it, refreshing a friendly NPC for external assistance, the developers are so considerate, love it, love it."
The players chattered noisily, but only Erebos was taken aback by Song Zhaomei's appearance.
[Human, I've detected familiar code within you, it was you who dismantled the Little Beidou's matrix core... no... you couldn't have, you're too weak.]
Song Zhaomei couldn't be bothered to listen to Erebos's incessant talk, much less explain anything.
Any rogue AI is best dealt with by termination.
She said to the players,
"I'll keep it occupied, you find a way to destroy those data cores. Without computational support, it won't last long before it's driven back to the old net."
Then she controlled the Demonic Puppet she had programmed to engage in battle with Erebos.
