"No, no, Max and Benjamin's doppels still have value. So do the rest of the association. We just need to be smarter."
"I get that. Should we send another EXCISOR to be safe? I imagine they're still resting."
"Fuck, man, they probably already expect another attack. Just send five nearby agents to keep an eye on them but tell them to NOT ENGAGE."
"Noted. Any reason why the <span class="mu-b">retrieval implant</span> didn't fully work? <span class="mu-b">I mean, we don't want EXCISOR tech to be stolen by her.</span>
"Can't be from EMPs. She must've got a lucky shot with this bizarre slug she fired. We're going to study it so we can kill that damned CEO she was talking to."
"Why WAS he wearing <span class="mu-b">J-Corp's colors? Aren't they WITH us? I swear that Singularity reminded me more of A, B, C or L-Corp's-</span>"
And that's when the signal goes cold. Your allies decide it's probably best to not speak about what they just heard for their own safety. Who knows who could be watching you now?
Hm. Food for thought on who your mysterious CEO sponsor is. <span class="mu-b">Could be that he IS with J-Corp but he's allied with one of those four.</span> And you know the spooks will be keeping an eye on you since you DID kill two of their top goons.
There's nothing much else TO do here so after packing everything you found up, you let Ashley lead you in the direction she last saw the villagers at when she was scouting the area before.
The area you find yourself in appears to be a former food court. Most of the restaurants have LONG since closed down and the various tables scattered throughout the circular court have been knocked over or destroyed outright. Dozens of now powered off automatons are scattered around the food court, seemingly here to guard something.
That's when you hear cries coming out from behind one of the metal grates. Lex decides to just punch a fucking hole right through said grate which, yeah, that caused everyone inside to scream like FUCKING BANSHEES.
[ALEXIS ALLY] Alexis promptly rushes up to the grate and begins to gibber something in I-Corp's dialect at such a rapid rate you can't make heads or tails of it. Whatever she said manages to make them shut up for now.
"Listen! We're not here to hurt you. We were sent to rescue you. Lex, sir, open the grate."
Lex promptly rips open the hole he punched in like it was nothing more than tissue paper. Seems like the drugs still pumping through his system are making him MONSTEROUSLY strong.
Behind the counter of a former cookie shop is a trio consisting of two men and one woman, each of which are adorned in familiar-looking fur coats. Their coats are stained with blood and, as you trail your eyes to the source of it, a half-eaten deer carcass is laying right next to them.
They raise their hands up in surrender but once they see Alexis, they immediately begin to calm down. Your group shares some quick introductions and you find out that these are the three you're looking for. Woo. Only took killing two powerful spooks!!!
