Google is the kind of Megacorp that makes Akras looks like regular corp. That is also over 4 centuries old.

Robbing Google is the kind of thing that the GM asks you to confirm TWICE before going with it.

And on a scale from 1-10 of how bad of an idea is this? Kicking Hitler out of art school.

And on a scale of 1-10 of how big would the payoff be if you somehow managed to pull off a grand Google Heist?

Akras would be world-endingly rich.

And keep in mind what the current situation is as well. The National Guard is prepping to bombard Akras HQ. We have another planet to fall back to. Forces are currently limited Terraside. We have several megatransports from other Akras compounds enroute that need that blockade down to get to the safety of Gaia.

"On second thought, I am sure my boss would never figure out that we were here, so, if you dont mind, we will be leaving through the door."

Vigil then procieded to cut yet another hole in an adjacent wall, hopefully to bings headquarters.

((Bing is not even worth the effort. Honestly, I don't know how such a crappy search engine survived to the 25th century. What does 25th century Google have anyway? Akras has robotics and genetics and magic. I'd imagine Google to be competitive in terms of robotics, AI and satellite weaponry maybe?))

It was a surreal moment, so there they were, just working away their usual day where suddenly the wall was literally sliced open by a guy with a bigfuck anime sword, who then proceed to try and rob the place with his crack team of supernatural soldiers in Exosuits and futuristic weapons, realizes that it's Google, apologizes for the inconvenience then proceed to comically pull the wall back up then weld it back in place using laser gun.

To be fair, they did say that working for Google is going to be crazy..


After you've welded the wall back up, Vigil slices another wall, making a door. This one leads to a 30 feet drop to the outside world where you can head onwards, having already bypassed the junk barricade.

You're about one third way until you get into engagement range with the National Guards.

The Signature that your Radar picked up is getting closer now, you should be seeing it once you've made half of your way towards the NG's sieging line.


What's everyone doing?

Everyone hopped down the easy 30 feet drop with ease, Aria and Jenny is also now with the group as there isn't a good supporting spot around here yet.

You've hopped down to the residential bit of the city, and it is absolutely, positively packed with people. There was an opening where you landed as people made way from falling debris.

They stared at you like you're some sort of unnatural freak that you are that happens to drop by into their mundane life.

You're going to have to go through the filthy crowd to get to the main road again, cutting through this path will be a good short cut towards the NGs.

There is little doubt that people will try to attack you just to get a piece of your armor to sell for some crack or something.

Black, beady excited eyes looking all over you makes you feel violated. It's as if they're stripping pieces of your armor off while panting with excitement of what they could do with said pieces using their eyes.
