21

Masaru mourns the death of Shōji as the members of the Nakamachi Circus arrive. Suddenly, the villagers fall victim to the Zonapha syndrome, and the Faceless Commander appears calling himself the god Deus. He announces that he has distributed the "sliver goddess" Artemis to destroy all humans. Masaru mounts the flying Jack-O-Lantern puppet and attacks Artemis, but discovers that each Artemis is composed of the Zonapha pathogen, a dust-sized automaton Faceless calls Apollyon. Guy also gives chase with Lise, but he is stopped by the Cupidia automaton which brings Guy down with his arrows. However just as Cupidia is about to kill Guy, it is destroyed by Narumi. Guy then uses Olympus to carry Narumi to the Zonapha Syndrome Research Institute where Fou the jester has completed "Harry", a machine to drive out the Apollyon bugs. Meanwhile, Faceless has reconstructed, Arlecchino, Pantalone and Colombine for his amusement. Narumi and Guy arrive at the Institute, where they meet up with Ming-Xia, Tom, George and Eiryo, but they come under attack from Faceless’ automatons. Inside, Ming-Xia finds all the staff dead, killed by automaton Gambler Jones who attacks her and captures Tom as a hostage. Meanwhile, Arlecchino, Pantalone and Colombine still remain loyal to their creator, Francine, and when they take food to Éléonore, they discover she looks exactly like Francine. (Source: Wikipedia)
