>REPROGRAMMED "ELNIAI" IMPLANT. (Smells like mangos and bubblegum. Enables SILVER IMPLANT bonuses from certain items. +1 WILLPOWER, CHARM, COGNIZANCE, and RESTRAINT when installed into someone. Once per mission, it may reduce all damage taken by one attack to 1.)
>'NIONIO" BLOOD REPLACEMENT VIAL x2 (Smells like mangos, bubblegum, and pent up repression. Permanently increases WILLPOWER by 1 on use. When used by a SILVER IMPLANT user, permanently increases two stats of the user choice by 1.)
>+VX-NINE SAMPLE (A heavily reinforced, air-tight container filled with a potent chemical weapon. Can be converted into a weapon by IPPO'S REFINERY or BENJAMIN.)
Woo! That's some pretty decent loot all things considered. Especially that implant! Weird how it got reprogrammed, you swore only Naomi knew that.
"NAOMI TAUGHT ME HOW TO REPROGRAM THEM. FOR WHEN I FOUND ONE TO USE FOR MY SHELL." Quentin explains when you ask him. "THOUGH I DO NOT DESIRE THE IMPLANT I FOUND. USE IT WHENEVER YOU FIND THE RIGHT TARGET."
You then dig into your pocket. Odd, you don't recognize these two trinkets.
>+THE ADMIRAL'S MEDAL (One of his many medals. The mere sight of it emboldens your mind. Once per mission, if you would fail a RESTRAINT, WILLPOWER or COGNIZANCE check, you may choose to automatically pass it.)
>+FRACTURED IRIDESCENT KING (A glass-like king chess piece barely held together by its own force of will. Whenever you target or damage an enemy with an ability or PARADIGM, you do a minor amount of ESOTERIC DAMAGE to them on top of any other effects.)
Huh. Neat. Welp, there's one thing left to do before you find those villagers. You sit down with the rest of your allies with your SILVER ELITE RADIO turned on and you take a moment to listen into their wails. After this, you'll go rescue the villagers.
Your allies huddle around the radio with bated breath. You rather not keep the signal on for too long since you imagine they'd KNOW you somehow have access to their signals if you keep using these radios.
The radio crackles for a moment and for a moment, you hear nothing. <span class="mu-b">Then, you hear the sound of someone gagging.</span> A pair of oddly normal men, no weird filter to their voice or anything, are speaking over the line.
"Fucking hell. Her face looks like burnt ground beef. I thought you said they would be unkillable."
"Do you SEE the damage to his head? This can only have been done with high grade explosives. And that weird round we recovered..."
"They must've recovered more than we expected from the P-Corp facility. Only way they could've killed him."
"Any reason we only sent two? She seems to have enough resources and rapport to hire multiple highly armed allies."
"The rest of the ELITES, EXCISORS, and normal AGENTS we have access to were busy preparing for the Head Meeting. Nicole's a high priority target but <span class="mu-b">have you SEEN what the CEOs can do? She's a drop in the bucket to them.</span>"
"Yeah. That's fair. Should we scrap the others?"
