Technicians headed to the Hive's fourth level to prepare to move Alexia's cryo-chamber.

The cryo-chamber was transferred to an operating room on the Hive's third level. Meanwhile, forty fully armed Alpha and Epsilon agents stood guard inside and outside the room.

Red Queen issued a voice command to the cryo-chamber, opening the unit that had been sealed for fifteen years.
Researchers waiting nearby began performing memory-alteration surgery on Alexia as she was still thawing and waking up.
They would erase all of Alexia's previous memories, then implant a chip in her brain to fabricate and monitor her memories.
If necessary, Red Queen could also remotely activate the chip's self-destruct function, preventing Alexia from causing casualties among company personnel or inflicting significant damage to company property.
After all, brainwashing surgery was highly effective on humans. But after fifteen years of merging with the Veronica Virus, Alexia no longer seemed to fall within the category of human.
Although Alexia's brain was no different from a human's, the researchers installed the self-destruct function as a precaution.

After nearly two hours, the researchers finished brainwashing Alexia.
Under the guard of two USS squads, she was then moved to a specially modified private room in the third-level ward.
Until Alexia awoke, three USS squads stationed at the Hive would take turns keeping watch over her. Armed security personnel would also assist them.

The scene simulated outside the window was a park with a slide, a sandbox, and swings.
A warm breeze flowed into the room through the ventilation outlet,
