You leave the scene after beating up the big tax collector and his buddy- and for the rest of the day go track down and beat up a few more. Your hands ache from the vibrations in your tonfas, but you only receive a few minor blows here and there- your weapons are faster then the standard thugs fist- who rely on intimidation and bullying to get what they want.
It will take a little time to get it through their thick skulls, but over the next few days, you make sure to stop as many "tax collections" as you can. The word spreads quickly after that- only needing a few of the more notorious and comfortable tax collectors to get knocked down a peg before the less confident ones back off. By the time next month rolls around- there is a suddenly <span class="mu-i">lack</span> of the tax collectors all over town. There is a weird energy in the air- you see lines of people standing outside- even women and children walking to collect their UBI without issue- unthinkable even just a month ago. Everyone on Level 5 seems suddenly feels much more secure.
At the same time, over the next few days, you see people being more loose with money- in a good way. Couples eating at restaurants more, business is booming, people in nicer and less worn down clothes. You even had a bit extra- though some of it came from the valuable salvage from the garage, enough to buy a new hoodie. You get one a size larger, and hide your "crime fighting" equipment underneath it- sadly you think it's too risky to go about in your favorite bright-red hoodie as your civilian clothing anymore, so you opt for something more inconspicuous- a drab color to avoid too much attention.
Feeling suddenly inspired by the direct consequences of your actions- you can only think of what to do next. While the tax collection may have stopped for now, Level 5 still has a lot of issues. What should you do next?
>Rest on your accomplishment
>Continue training
>Protect at-risk people
