Mission Report Continued
]
With all of the unfinished Tearers (some practically feral) on the loose, the team had to hurry to make their way to the Head Researcher's office, which sat looking over the main atrium. It was tough, especially with the Tearers starting to swarm the team, but they managed to make it there successfully. Unfortunately, they only managed to plant
some
of the rubidium charges - the onslaught of Enforcers didn't give them time to plant charges everywhere. However, they planted enough to cripple the facility for months, even years.
Using the raw strength of Proteus's golem, they managed to break into the Head Researcher's Office, bending the metal door to get in, then sealing it for a short while, giving them time to hunt around in the office. There, they found "subject 73", who was sealed in a vat of some kind. He was alive, but unconscious, and may prove useful to the cause. Additionally, a safe containing a vial of Proteus's blood and the bulk of the research notes was there, which Athena broke into with ease, while Bella helped to clear up the best of the documentation. With time running thin, as the Tearers were almost in, they had to teleport off, leaving the last of the charges in the office. Once they were back at the FOB, JMR Vatic detonated the rubidium charges.
As the alarm was set off, unfortunately, it cannot be staged as a lab-based accident - Richter's forces know that it was a targeted assault. However, the facility is still crippled.
"Subject 73" is currently unconscious in Paterdomus temple. Research notes indicate that he is completely human, and magical analysis concludes with this observation.
Thoughtcrime doesn't entail death. Thoughtcrime IS death.
