Jim decided to try sharpening that damn claymore with his amps. That'll show it. The katana too, if it was still considered 'dull'. If not, he'd leave it alone.
(Also, OW, Toaster. I'm glad I skipped that little girl. >.>)
[exo:2+1]
You crush thing rather unevenly, making it a bit sharper in places, but not doing much over all.
"Hrmm. Test subject? Armor therapy? Free? Would being a test subject make it free, or would the therapy be free anyway?"
Ask the Doc whether the test is free, or the treatment.
((Damn that is a badass little girl.))
"Being test subject is free. But it's full therapy."
"Your flesh shall be your downfall." The sheep bleats.
((She's hardcore. Also, ouch.))
OWWWWWWWW that hurt! Time for revenge.
Tackle and strangle her to death.
[Intuition: 3-1]
You swing your arms around wildly, trying to grab hold of the girl who blinded you, but can't find her.
[end:6]
Well, I heard what she did with that Elisaz, and I am not stupid enough to make the same mistake he did. Perversion does not equal stupidity. I thought you could help a little but if you can't...
Renen goes back to normal mode.
Continue reading the book. Buy Jim's katana if he happens to be selling it for one token.
((@PW: Do the NPCs like the AM have the same skill divison like ours, with the upgrades and so on? Does she roll for things like her amp usage when she destroyed Elisaz's body?))
(In 99% of situations, yes.)
The next chapter, The book of fire, mostly talks about ways to take advantage of your enemy, such feinting weakness and then taking advantage of their attempt to capitalize on your perceived weakness.
You stop reading for a moment, just long enough to head over to Jim and buy yourself a nice new katana. It's not exactly the most pretty thing, clearly a varied alloy, and the entire thing formed from a single piece of metal, but it looks sturdy and reasonably sharp.
(I think the little girl in the fight simulator should be reskinned to be the little girl I rescued. Then Mesk could fight her, get virtual killed, and everyone would be happy.)
Hmm, right. Well if I recall correctly I had actuators built in to extend and retract the needles, so if I do some slight modifications to said actuators so they attach to the syringes as well and rig them with a pressure sensor of some sort I could have them automatically extend when inside flesh and then retract after pulling the needle out, the pressure difference should keep the fluid inside the syringes until injection - same principle as a turkey baster, but with actuators and needles.
Yeah, that would work, though yeah, if they retract before pulling out you're gonna get blood in there. This thing is gonna be very complex to make.
Bishop leaned back and gave a suspicious look at the doctor.
"Ooooh, don't you tempt me with these promises! It's still in testing, so I won't trust it until I'm sure it works as intended and with as few side effects as possible."
He was silent for a moment before continuing.
"What exactly would testing consist of and could you do it with just one of my arms?"
Ask the crazy doctor and also ask how much does the organic bone strengthening cost. After asking, take off my now useless bandage for my burnt hand and check how many tokens I have.
"Test is just using the therapy. And no. Has to be full. Otherwise not full test. "
"Organic bone therapy is 10. Never break another bone. Well, under reasonable circumstances."
25 tokens remaining.
