>>1119997
I say get the laser pistol. It seems reliable as long as we don't overuse it.

Alright we got one model in stock. A rail rifle will be deposited into your garage and you can use it for future missions. Have fun.

>>1120065
You decide to take the laser pistol.

Good choice, have fun.

You have new weaponry, are there any questions you'd like to ask or are you good?

Artillery

>>1120073
Nah, we're good. Let's go do something else.

You finish up at the armory.

You have a few other locations to visit, where would you like to go?

since its near you could pop into the launch bay

The place is surprisingly empty, just old monitors and equipment for launching the spacecraft. It seems operational, but nobody is around here.

You could mess with the equipment.

probably best not to

Odd lack of security here. Uh, maybe you should call someone and ask how you're able to get in so easily? On the other hand, if there's nothing on the launch platform maybe the console is locked down so pushing buttons doesn't do anything. On the other other hand, if someone unauthorized got in here they could sabotage the console itself.

Are there any buttons marked DO NOT PRESS?

If anyone's here, fucking around with launch command would be a good way to get them to come running.

If anyone asks why you're here, tell them you were looking for the "Muffin Button". You know, that button you push that immediately spawns in a fresh muffin to eat. That's why you're here.

Plant listening bug, leave

You consider your options, unsure of what to pick, though you're fairly certain there is no such thing as a "muffin button" and that the ITA would never install one anyways.

>>1120365
Sadly you don't have those, you're not a spy, you're a corporate soldier in all out warfare.

Lacking any further information, probably shouldn't touch anything. Except maybe if you can find something harmless like the camera controls.

The purpose of this update is to get a solid consensus on what to do next. Pick from what's been made available already and we'll go with that.

Touch something. Do it. Press the button.

Of all the choices, you decide to boil it down to this. There's a power button, you can turn on the console and begin to dig for whatever information is on there, it's a spaceport it has to have a record.

Or you ignore the thing entirely, and leave and go somewhere else, perhaps the barracks to rest for the night.

Those are your options, gain information or remain ignorant, if people come running or not is secondary.

Eh, why not. turn it on and see whats been logged

>>1120462
Sure, let's snoop.

Yeah, turn it on, check that nothing auto-starts, and have a look at the contents.

A log, a diary, a user's manual...

There is a brief hum as you hit the power button, and the screen boots up. There's a few records already on hand, you could probably read through multiple of them, nobody's come to get you yet so you have time.

What do you want to read first?

Mechs!

Mechs, definitely.

You load up the Mech records, it takes a few moment, it seems the latest records are lost. However it does bring up the records from a century ago, interesting, the names stand out somewhat.

Where do you start first?

Red mask

>>1120570
You pull up Red Mask's record. There's more on the Mech Red 9 on another page, but the mech on the screen doesn't resemble any of the mechs you've faced. You do get a general history of what Red Mask was doing here.

Could the Red Mask you're facing now really be the same one? The records are from a century ago.

"He was still only flesh"? ...I think we faced an AI based on Red Mask. That would explain the multiple mechs. Maybe it was a brain scan even.

Info on any of these mechs won't be tactically useful since it's so out of date. Could give us ideas on how to build our own tho.

Let's check the other two pilots. Bronson?

Hm, the text mentions legacy, which hints at several people bearing the mask in sequence. But that "only flesh" comment is indeed troubling.

Could be, he could have also been heavily augmented, similar to how you were. Cybernetic research has been around a long time, there's some reports that the right implants and biotech can extend lifetimes. Add in the alien tech on the world...

You move onto Bronson. His mech has no parts listed, seems it was a proprietary industrial build, judging by the reports on topology reading.

However, the confirmation that the world is artificial, this is troubling. Why hide this?

Hm, Mateo is in charge then? Check his bio.

oh is the planet named after him? or his family at least

lets read his file

You pull up Mateo's file, kingbreaker certainly seems old, but the Mateo in the file is only a year or two older than you are when this report was made.

Something happened, the technology of this world got to Mateo in some way. Either by influencing darker desires or controlling him.

Wait... is this guy the local Monarchy's founder/ruler?

A house of aristocrats that deposed royalists devolved into a royal family that looked down on aristocrats... what a disgrace.

Weird. This intel isn't just stale, it's archaic. Why hasn't this data been curated and updated?

>>1120871
i guess.

Check the Kingbreaker mech.

>>1120806
>artificial world
>>1120857
>Mateo uncovered something and he shifted
Sounds like he might have uncovered some ancient technology that belonged to whoever made the planet. And that ancient technology messed with his augments, causing him to change.

I think the lesson here is that we should get some kind of protection for our augments, so we don't change like Mateo did.

More than likely, considering what was said about Red Mask, Mateo might still be alive in some way.

>>1120871
You're not certain, this entire place seems old. The ITA surely has other spaceports.

>>1120876
You open up the build on the Kingbreaker mech, the parts are of course, outdated, your standard August mech is more high tech than this thing. This thing is also a medium assault mech as well, seems Mateo was a frontliner.

>>1120880
You're gonna need a dedicated surgeon for that, there might be one in Operations, there has to be an infirmary for that. Of course you've already connected to alien tech, how do you know you haven't been altered by it already?

Alright shut it back down again. Don't wanna get caught with your fingers in it.

well that's something to think about. seems like the alien tech changes people. or maybe that's just greed

With all that said, you're fairly certain you're done here. Where do you go next?

You poke your head into the operations room, and find a chimp or a monkey in there, barking orders into a headset into an incredibly hectic room. Countless operatives and operations are going on in here.

Looks like now is not the right time to barge in. Which... is a bit weird, since the base is supposed to be laying low at the moment.

Yeah let's not bother anyone.

handsome monkey, but don't bother him now.
