A few wads of cold, hard cash would obviously be impressive but the thing that stands out to you are the various hard drugs just casually thrown in there. You're not even sure what expression to make. Ashley seems...almost insulted by the carelessness of handing out this stuff while Lex stares at you with puppet dog eyes.
"We gotta try some of this shit out later."
LOOT ACQUIRED
>$150
>RASPBERRY SINSU x4 (A low-quality knockoff of a well known Z-Corp product. Lowers all FLESH damage taken by 1 for a short period of time when consumed.)
>ARCADY DUST x2 (Powder from a lethally poisonous plant. Safe to consume in small doses. Heals 3 RESTRAINT and temporarily raises WILLPOWER by 1. Also temporarily lowers COGZINANCE, CHARM, and TALENT by 1 until you rest.)
>BROWN VIAL x3 (A brown fluid in a glass vial. Formerly supplied to J and X-Company soldiers. Now sold as a street drug. When consumed, you roll d8s instead of d6s on the next skill check or attack you make.)
>PISTOL ROUND x4 (Usable by your HANDMADE GUNS)
>SHOTGUN SLUG x3 (Not useful currently but can be traded or sold at shops or saved for when you do find a shotgun.)
"They really don't care who they give shit to, huh." Ashley almost sounds as dead inside as Quentin does with how deadpan she was. "Let's just go inside already. They frankly deserve to die."
"Agreed." Lex simply nods his head. Quentin doesn't bother responding.
You lead the way forward after you're done checking all of the stuff you kinda tricked out of the Strikers. The Firecrackers snarl and crackle when you approach the front door. The guards silently pull on the leashes until it's taut, shutting the stick bugs up. The guard closest to you nods his head. With his left hand, he gestures at you to go inside.
You wait for your three allies to walk in ahead of you before you follow after. While feigning interest in the strange stick bug, you start focusing on the leashes the three guards are holding. It takes a lot more energy to force it out of their hands given they have a damn tight hold on the leashes.
>4/7 RESTRAINT LEFT
A light purple glow only you can see surrounds their leashes. The guards can clearly feel the odd pull trying to loosen their hold on their leashes. It becomes a game of tug of war between them and your thoughts. After some struggle, you get a clever idea. You simply stop using your ability for a short bit when the guards pull HARD against your telekinesis.
This results in them pulling hard enough on their leashes to make small tears all across it. You take a moment to rip at the tears with your mind. Sure enough, now that they're without their leashes, they take this chance to start running around like crazy. You take this moment to enter inside while they're busy with that. <span class="mu-g">They'll probably be real busy handling that for a while.</span>
"GOD FUCKING DAMNIT NOT AGAIN!!!" You hear a faintly familiar voice from one of the guards as you disappear into the base. Oh well.
