"Equal and opposite reaction. <span class="mu-g">Every mission, especially with some nudges of a Corporate Administrator in training, will have their rewards massively boosted.</span> The lowest one I saw, money wise, was $3000."
Fuck, that could be enough to bounce you back from the catalog purchases. "Wait." You remember something. "Does the safety thing you said from our last session still track?"
"Indeed. C, O, Q, V and Z-Company's district (3/15/17/22/26) should be safer still for today, tomorrow, and the day after."
"In addition, depending on the mission you pick, you'll earn some minor favor with one of the corporate CEOs during the meeting. You obviously won't know what you'd get from siding with a CEO but it'll be a nice bonus."
Huh. "Well, you have two more things to say. What else should I know about."
"Two! Due to incredibly bountiful harvests from the Infinite Sea due to a certain deer clearing up a certain Admiral, U, T, and S-Company (who directly border the Sea) have been quickly rising up in Corporate Power. Even V-Corp is getting some boons due to bordering the ocean as well."
"While other companies know you exist and have benefited from your existence, those four and G-Corp have and will benefit the most from your interference. So I imagine <span class="mu-b">you'll get a choice of a Corporate Sponsor during the Head Meeting from one of those five.</span> You may need it, <span class="mu-r">things will only get more dangerous after the meeting. This isn't the end. It's only the middle of our story.</span>"
You have a feeling you might be able to earn another sponsor choice or two depending on what you do today but that's worryingly cryptic. You always assumed the Base Assault would be a climax, a hooray, to your fight against the spooks. What could be more dangerous than heading into the den of your enemy?
"Three! <span class="mu-b">You have a double agent in the Silvers that you don't know about.</span> Currently, somewhere within the City, a certain group of assassins have heard about what you did to Noelle and Bel. All five of them are worried about their own safety now." Huh? Is he talking about the 521 Association? Granted, only Ashton and Noelle have shown themselves, but...
"While I doubt they'll be allies with you (you have enough as is), expect to meet some of them today. They'll attempt to bargain with you to save their own skin. That is all." With that, the television turns off. Hm. You suppose killing one of the silver agent's top threats was enough to scare them.
[UNSTABLE] SHOULD WE KILL THEM? IF THEY BACKSTABBED THEIR EMPLOYEERS, THEY MIGHT JUST BACKSTAB US TOO.
[PERSON OF INTEREST] Let's be pragmatic. The spooks have been deterred by us so far but they've never sent more than a few agents at us at a time.
[PERSON OF INTEREST] We're heading into the belly of the beast. I say we can take what help we can.
[ANOMALOUS ABILITIES] Didn't you hear they were SHIFTers too? May be worth it to have some more anomalous might on your side.
Hm. Food for thought.
