The inside of the base looks far more reminiscent of a P-Company facility than anything else. The walls and floor are as white and sterile as a hospital's. The lights hanging from the ceiling are safely secured in metal cages to prevent anything from breaking them.
The hallway you're in seems to be in an upside down L-shape with you at the top. The left path ends in a dead end five feet away from the door you're at while the path leading deeper into the facility has containment cell airlocks plastered on either side of the hallway.
Speaking about those lights. The whole hallway is cast in a dull red glow; That can't be from emergency power, you didn't use any EMPs yet. A static-laced announcement crackles from a distant speaker.
"WARNING! PERSONS OF INTEREST HAVE BREACHED THE FRONT LOBBY! I REPEAT! PERSONS OF INTEREST HAVE ENTERED THE FRONT LOBBY!"
"THEY ARE ARMED AND DANGEROUS! CLASS 1 AND 2 SECURITY PERSONNEL HAVE BEEN SENT TO INTERCEPT THE INTRUDERS!"
Ah ha! The other squads got inside too. You'd guess the EXPLORATION SQUADs must've taken another entrance but if that's the case, everyone's inside now. Good.
The announcement ends. The only thing playing on the speakers now is an intense sounding alert siren.
Benjamin spots something on a nearby wall. A thick metal plaque? "Ah! Seems like there's some information about what's stored here. Seems to be encoded and cryptic, though..."
"We're here to destroy anything too dangerous, right?" Maruyama asks just to be safe.
"Mmh. There's another squad for recovering items."
Benjamin reads out what's on the plaque. Which cells do you want to break into first? Neutralizing what's inside should help out the other squads.
Choose up to three cells.
LOW CLASS CELLS
>T-01-132. "Before I met you baby, I didn't know what I was missing."
>O-09-26. "Let's reset our watches, gentlemen."
>O-01-59. "I could really wear my heart on my sleeve. Or maybe, I don't have to be anyone at all." You might've encountered this one before?
MEDIUM CLASS CELLS
>F-06-192 "My hearts and heads refuse to agree, for they are the judge, the jury, and the executioner."
>M-03-59. "Everything is passing. Everything. Stay here any longer, and you will never regain what you were."
HIGH CLASS CELL
>T-04-146. "You called me worthless. Yet the really pathetic thing was dying to the likes of me."
Anything else you want to do? Choose up to two.
>Send someone to scout ahead. (Who?)
>Talk to an ally. (Who?)
>Toss the FAKE ANTLERS, SOVIET CLOCKHANDS, and POCKETWATCH to Max + Benedict + Benjamin. While you still have down time.
>Check up on a squad. (Choose SPOOK INTEL, REGULAR KILLSQUAD, or ANOMALY RECOVERY.)
>Write in.
