Quoted By:
The fabric is darker, darker, yet even darker than anything you've seen. A vantablack suit with veins and trails of teal running throughout the sleeves and seams of the suit covers what little of his body isn't completely mutated. Ripping off a piece of fabric only results in it crumbling into black powder moments after being separated from the suit.
[SCHOLAR OF THE CITY] You've heard rumors of something called "Parfaite" branded fabric used by very important corporate officials, mostly B-Company, but aside from that you have no idea what it does.
You don't really have time to dwell on the mutated corpse. Second box time. Your attention is drawn to a bright white icebox that looks like it would be used to store important organs or chemicals that need to be kept in cold storage. Cracking it open...
FREEZING COLD BOX LOOT!
>ANAMALA ACID SUPPLY (Needs to be kept in cold storage, explodes at room temperature. When given to Benjamin, he unlocks the ability to create potent explosives and lethal gasses at the cost of 2 charges of his boon.)
>FUR LINED UNIFORMS x6 (Produced in collaboration with I and C-Company. Contains a bulky fur jacket, gloves, thermal pants, boots, and winter googles. Reduces all FLESH damage taken from extreme cold by 1 [can reduce to 0]. Wearable over most armors.)
>ICY BLOOD VIAL x3 (When used on Quentin, massively extends the lifespan of the body he inhabits. When used on anything else, deals lingering FLESH and RESTRAINT damage from the freezing cold.)
And the last box is the bulky red and white MEDICAL BOX. Cracking it open, you find...
MEDICAL BOX LOOT!
>GAUZE ROLLS x4 (Consumed on use. Can heal one FLESH, temporarily negate a crippling injury, or to heal a CRIPPLING INJURY if used with UVX.)
>"UVX MODEL #222" x2 (A experimental X-Corp ointment altered due to recent training data from a 'N.S.', meant for topical application. Applies FLESH regeneration and boosts max FLESH by 1 while active. Still has side effects when used.)
>AUTOSTIMPAK x2 (Automatically consumes when you take a CRIPPLING INJURY or fall below half FLESH. Negates a CRIPPLING INJURY or heals FLESH until you're at half FLESH.)
As you check over all of the loot, you feel something wet soaking into your shoes. Ah shit, the water level is already rising. You quickly pick up the icebox with ease (due to your notably improving physique) while dragging the other crates out with your telekinesis. You make a mad dash back to the ship, using your telekinesis to quickly pick some plants from the island and storing them in one of the boxes.
>+SINFUL ROSES, RUSTED SILVER BERRIES, MINTY GREEN CHERRIES!
You manage to get back to the ship with all of your loot right as the island sinks back underneath the waves. You would question how the plants manage to survive being submerged in salt water but then you remember that's not remotely the weirdest thing you saw out here.
You toss your FISH BUNDLES into the icebox as you finally get a moment to sit down and read...
