It doesn't get any better no matter where you look. It's all the same level of destruction for as far as your eyes can see.
As expected, the power lines are also knocked down. Luckily it seems like they already shut down the power here so the now loose and severed power lines are just inert cabling but that means this place has to be in complete blackout.
Something in your INVENTORY begins to beep. You check to see what it is...and it's two of your DETECTORS. The RAW MOONSTONE GAS DETECTOR and the P-CORP ENERGY COUNTER. You'd had one or two beep before but both at the same time?
[ANOMALOUS ABILITIES] The weirdest part is you sense no anomaly here. The only anomalous presence here should be you.
[PERSON OF INTEREST] Didn't they experiment with anomalies? That's how Benedict got stuck as a half-anomaly, half-human. Like a manufactured SHIFTer.
No use just speculating. Thankfully you're able to explore the ruined streets with ease due to your well trained body. Jumping over massive gaps or having to climb around/over some rubble to continue forward isn't that much of an issue when you're not rushing yourself.
In your travels, you do begin to notice that not every building is completely destroyed. A lot of the SHOPs you went to over your career are either being repaired or are still in operation, though most of them are out of power.
You passed by CALORE NERO, that old coffee shop you saw yesterday, and it seems to have power. Though the whine of several generators nearby tells you how. It is fucking packed to the brim with people; At least fifty to sixty of them.
Meanwhile, you see the old man from IPPO'S REFINERY helping out some of the S-Corp Construction Workers with repairing some of the smaller buildings. You doubt they can repair every building immediately but you're glad they're doing something.
>SEEKER ROLL: 63!
One of the buildings currently being repaired by a group of S-Corp workers looks...weird. Very weird. You stop in your tracks to get a better look at it and the first thing that raises your alarm bells is how <span class="mu-i">pristine it is</span>. While a lot of the other buildings being repaired are still in the very early stages of being repaired, this one?
This one looks brand new! It's like it suddenly popped out of nowhere. The new office building they built is also really, really vibrant with how it's painted. The bright red paint they painted it with had to be put on just mere seconds ago since droplets of it are still rolling down the building.
"How's the transplant?" You overhear one of the workers muttering to the other.
"Good, good. Had to get some samples from another building. Rejection rate is at 5% right now."
"Can G-Corp afford it? They have the spare rubble for it but gestating one still takes time."
Gestating?
You take a closer look at the building. While every other building is coated in snow, there's no snow within a 15 foot radius of it. Hell, there's PUDDLES OF WATER on the ground. It's oddly hot here...
