"I'm going to rip every single fucking limb off of that mayor. Get in the truck. Now." Rosaline nods towards the big mining truck you have. There's probably barely enough room for everyone if you squeezed most of them on the back but you doubt the corpos care. Alexis, Casey, Valentina, and Rosaline squeeze into the front.
The rest of you squeeze in the back. Once you manage to arrive back at town, you see a pretty gnarly sight that you can't even begin to process.
A short, rotund man with slick greasy black hair and a patchwork jacket is currently being strangled in the middle of the town by Robbert. The rest of the town is watching with equal measures of shock, confusion, fear and...relief at the sight they're seeing
Your group and the other corpos stumble out of the truck. The rotund man soon snaps his eyes over to Valentina and his eyes widen even more.
"WAIT- ACK- I CAN EXPLAIN!" <span class="mu-s">Joel Myers</span>, the mayor of this town, desperately clings to life. "I HAD TO SAVE THE TOWN! AT ANY COST-"
A rock is soon thrown at his head by a very familiar man. Devin Blood begins to gush from the mayor's head. "YEAH RIGHT! RIGHT! YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WERE FUCKING DOING! WE HEARD IT ALL!"
Kori, who is standing right beside him, simply shakes his head in disgust.
"THIS TOWN USED TO MEAN SOMETHING! AND YOU FUCKING SULLIED IT!
"WE DID EVERYTHING YOU ASKED FOR AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAID US?!"
"RIP HIS LIMBS OFF! DRINK HIS BLOOD! FUEL THE EARTH WITH HIS BLOOD!"
Every single resident still left in this town has surrounded the titan of flesh and muscle that's currently strangling Joel. Makeshift torches and rusted over pickaxes are raised in the air as they watch this drawn out execution play out.
The other corpos watch on with amused smirks. Your allies can't do anything but to watch with sheer morbid delight at seeing him pay for everything that's happened.
Expect for Max and Benjamin. They just seems disappointed. <<span class="mu-b">"Must it always end like this?"</span>>
Your mission is basically done, you don't have to do anything. The town will be saved by the corpos. Yet is he the only one to be blamed here? W-Corp was a real bastard for even suggesting that he should do this.
Should you let the execution go through?
>YES. IN FACT, ENCOURAGE HUXLEY! BLOOD TIME. (+1 HUXLEY FAVOR)
>YES, BUT TELL ROBBERT TO LET THE MINERS DO IT. THEY DESERVE IT. (+1 WORKING CLASS FAVOR.)
>NO. YOU GOT A MORE EVIL SUGGESTION IN MIND. "Hey. Let's take him back to the mines, huh? Let's see how he feels." Poetic irony. (+1 VANNI FAVOR.)
>"Robbert. Let the man down. Let's leave him in this god forsaken town. By himself." Let him wallow in his mistakes. Alone. Forgotten. W-Corp can deal with him. (+1 W-CORP FAVOR.)
>NO. You see how uncomfortable Max and Benjamin are, well, you feel a smidge of pity for him. A smidge. "Roland. Get him a job. The worst one you can get but there's no point letting a worker go to waste." (+1 KRAKATOA FAVOR, +0.5 MAX AND BENJAMIN RAPPORT.)
