>Put C-0RA on searching for the clown slasher on regular intervals. Announcement time.
"C-0RA. Keep an eye on the clown slasher, you're now part of Security until otherwise. Got it?" You snap your fingers at the android (almost literally, you notice. GOD that hurts). C-0RA snaps out of her weird trance state that she constantly finds herself in.
"SECURITY!!!! MY FAVORIte! so many strong cOPS WITH STRong BODS!!!"
"for the love of fuck just look for the clown."
You tap your microphone, ready for the announcement. You have a few on your mind, might as well get them all out. "Good morning. Today, we have been told an Invasion may happen. Until we can confirm the threat is neutralized, stay in groups and do not wander the halls. Also, we will have a fighting tournament later, you may be able to win a belt. That is all. Face the Fear."
Your more nervous/obedient employees (C, O2, V, W, Q, T) instantly fall into line and cling to each other. Your more outspoken employees (L, P, Z, Kor) think you're either worrying about nothing or you're joking around.
>Admin examine locked Briefcase and [REDACTED]
With the benefits of S-4M being able to control Spike while analyzing stuff, you bark a quick command to your AI to carry them to your office. You get up (without feeling like your back is gonna snap) and wait at the airlock for S-4M to get the goods.
You know, once you open that airlock and see the towering hunk of metal, you're not sure whether you should be scared or not. You just grab the two things its holding and close the airlock back up.
Placing the two of your desk, you decide to check them out. That [REDACTED] you bought wasn't at all censored by your cameras, that's actually how it looks like. It's a floating, blacked out cube thing. It's bizarre seeing something like this just...in front of you, ya know?
You decide to try to get a better look at it but as you grab a hold onto it, you feel a <span class="mu-b">sudden rush of energy flowing your arm.</span> <span class="mu-r">Which quickly turns into your skin cracking and flaying.</span>
"S-Sir! Ar-are you okay?" You hardly say anything as you pull your arm back. Black ooze pours out of your arm. "S-shit. U-uh, yeah, I'll..." You hold your arm to your chest. Then you notice something weird about your display.
>+1 ICP generated!
"What."
"Uh."
"EXICITING!"
All three of you (S-4M, Admin, C-0RA) are utterly baffled at this. How the hell...? Then you look back at the cube and notice that where you touched it, a glowing handprint was left, alongside a message caved into it.
<span class="mu-s">"TRANSACTION COMPLETED. EXHAUSTED FOR THE DAY. PLACE [REDACTED] FROM GAMMA-CORP INTO STORAGE."</span>
What the hell did you buy.
>[REDACTED]: Once per day, you may have an employee interact with the [REDACTED]. This will generate a large sum of A-Energy, a handful of C-Extract, one ICP, or even rarer energies
>An additional upside or downside will be given at random (killing them, healing them, revealing a trait, etc)
