This has to be the dumbest, or most cowardly Engsami you've ever seen...

But wait... it looks like he caught himself on the wall near the bottom to land safely... hmm... how should I go about pursuit now?

Who are you again?

>>15106
Shoot it, or at least at it, and ask questions when you can pin it down.

Well it's already proven itself not to be all that bright, and it would suck to leave this kick-ass sniper position. Keep an eye out.. wait for a clear shot..

While we're at it..take another quick look around your surroundings, we don't want one sneaking behind us...

That cowardly savage (And strangely adorable) Engsami won't escape this place alive.. @_@

Also... yeah.. who are we again?

Remember what an Engsami is, exactly. Does this really look like one?

But your gun shoots lightning and shits thunder. Just hold it out and shoot blind. In such a tight hole it's bound to atleast stun the idiot. You can go finish it off safely then.

Does the building in front of us have a door on its east side (Can't really see it on the map).

If so, cut through the building, if you're quick about it you might be able to catch him in the alley ways.

If not? A direct chase seems viable... he'll run himself into a corner eventually.

"You're either the absolute dumbest Engsami I've ever seen, or clearly not one... Engsami are vicious reptile men from the surface, and not one of them would even think of turning and running at the sight of a Lohrke... I've never heard of a 'Nedynvor.' Give me one good reason I should trust you."

>So... what's your name?

"Tav." he directly responds, eying the worm as it wriggles and snaps it's mandibles in his hand.

>Why are you so protective of this place? Do others live here?"
You inquire.

"Not anymore. I'm a soldier, I was part of the former militia here, and when the Engsami showed up, we were overwhelmed and I'm all that's left of the militia. A handful of the citizens made it to the escape tunnel. As long as the Engsami think there's more of us up here, they won't go looking for the escapees, so I make a general nuisance of myself and keep their attention on me."

>Were the Engsami the ones who trashed the town?

"Duh. I've been finding and relocating the bodies of the lucky citizens who died in the raid and giving them proper burials, but the unlucky ones got dragged off through some tunnel the Engsami burrowed into town."

The boxes are sealed quite firmly shut.
There is what you assume to be a WEPON lying on what you assume is a WEPON WRACK.
There is no cabinet, there is a series of small cubby holes with signs on them in a language you don't understand, and an area that looks like something large was hanging on it with the same sign, but you have a feeling you know what the signs are getting at based off the icon used.

You obtain WEPON
You have no idea how to work it properly, but it is still a large, heavy, metal club.

>>18467

A weapon that shoots lightning somehow. Can you axe the boxes open. Batteries are what we need but someone has taken the big backpack off the wall then.

>>18467
Examine WEPON. There appears to be a trigger on the bottom of it.

>>18467
That weapon looks like it was made for you, Deme. 1 great-big grip that fits your great-big mit perfect. Now see if you can't pry some of those boxes open.

The grip on the weapon is very large, it fits your large hands quite well. There is a trigger of sorts along one side of the handle, but nothing happens when you pull it. There appears to be a small socket or something at the bottom of the hilt with a little arrow pointing to it and something written very small in a language you don't understand.

Why are you carrying that club?
You just got another bludgeon.
If you need to macerate something, you have the axe.
It's dead weight.

Check the little cubby holes. Maybe they're charging stations?

Alternately, use ELECTRIC TONGUE on WEPON socket.

(oh, herp de derp)
You place the LANTERN on one of the crates and bring the socket end of the weapon to your head. You stick your tongue into the socket and receive a jolt, similar to the one received from the holes outside the checkpoint. Your hand, holding down the trigger causes the weapon to hum with power briefly, but it quickly subsides as it seems to lose power again.

>>18612
Obviously we need a power pack not unlike the one Tav has.

Dude, Tav TOLD us we need to shoot a lightning rod spear before the zap gun shoots zaps.

Hook WEPON up to shocker crab.

Suecide, we need bolts to direct lightning and a backpack of compressed air to shoot the bolts. We are not getting a lightning gun. But this may serve as JOLTS OF POWER.

Well, it's a reasonable place for him to have found and stayed. Your journal is there, labeled with your name, and if he'd found it, he would have probably decided to wait there for your return.

Odds are good they'd take him someplace easy to set an ambush up in, so the Market and Traveler's Alley are likely areas with their jumble of shops and multiple large inns.

I was never really very fond of Traveler's Alley... just a cluster of Inns catering to a bunch of freeloading surface dwellers. But I guess I can't complain since their money is just as good down here. Anyway, there's an inn to my left, and one straight ahead. The one to my right is in very poor shape and doesn't appear very structurally sound, so I doubt they'd be in there... which should I check first?

The first, structurally unstable one.
That's where they'd set up.
That broken roof could let them look down at you entering the second inn and allow them to attack you from behind and catch you by surprise.
But if you know them to be stupid and not able to think strategically like that, go into the second, more stable inn first.

Did the blood trail end? If it did, which one is the best place to lay an ambush from?

The shell of this beast appears to be electricity proof, or at the very least highly resistant to it. This should keep Deme safe if we decide to attack. Should.

Kyaos and Ga'nneda are the generals of the Engsami invasion force that hit this city. Kyaos is one of those flying type I mentioned before, and Ga'nneda, well, he's more akin to a rock than anything else, slow, dumb, and very hard to hurt. They've proven to be a major thorn in my side as I've yet to figure out a way to STOP them. I figure they'd want me because I've been just as much a thorn in their si-

God DAMN he hits hard... I coughed up a bunch of blood in my gas mask, ugh... *HACK* He's a lot quicker on the attack up close than I'm used to seeing him...

Argh. I knew you should've gone up his back! Maybe you still can. If you're okay.

... Tav?

>>25894
You're no good to anyone DEAD, you idiot.

Be more careful.

>>25894

Assuming Gamera and mini-Rodan don't threaten to kill Deme, then either A)Walk up to some overhang/ceiling/whatever-the-fuck in their path and drop down on them from above (From what I can tell, Tav has sticky feet or some shit), or B)Get to a concealed sniper post and take out the small one, if possible.

Other than that, I've got nothin'.

>>25894
Enter 'Let's get dangerous' mode.

>>25894
Snipe.

Unrelatedly, what in the caverns requires you to wear the gas-mask?

>>25894

Well, time for a strategic manouvering also sometimes called retreat. He seems to have hit you in the crumbling building so he shouldn't be able to follow. Nothings stopping him from toppling the building on top of you unfortunately. So move fast and get out trough the back and out of sight. Sneak back behind him and shoot him behind the knee. No armor there and if that dosen't immobilize him nothing will.

>>25894

Wait... fuck... did your gun just break?

>>25894
Use your surroundings to your advantage. There's got to be something bit and spikey that you can use to crack his shell.

That or just ignore him and focus on the frail little bitch perching on him.

Check your lightning gun for damage, observe your surroundings, then this:

>>25910

Cry and beg for one last kiss with your gay lover Demesi. With Deme's tongue free, he'll be able to hit one of them with electricity, giving us time to run away with Demesi now in tow.

>>26014

I doubt the bio-shocking tongue would stun either of them long enough; especially the Gargant.

>>26022
Unless you hit them in the eye!

Bumping for more, and hopefully less moronic ideas.

>>27529
Check gun and retreat sound like good ideas to me. He is getting his ass kicked out here.

>>27573

I agree wholeheartedly. I must have been thinking of a different quest when I posted the "moronic" comment.

But yeah,
Retreat -> Check Gun -> Observe Surroundings
sounds good to me.

Nnngh, I'm good... I'm good... just a few bruised ribs, maybe a broken one tops, I'm ok...

The Shock Lance seems to still be ok, *grunt* but I hear a hissing sound. It sounds like my air compressor might have sprung a leak. If that's the case, I won't be able to shoot GUIDE RODS as far or as hard for long.

I've been knocked into the run down inn across the street. Ga'nneda hasn't moved in yet, Kyaos is probably wanting to toy with me more... She pisses me off so damn much...

The gas mask was for the Engsami. Shortly *grunt* after the first wave of the invasion hit, some of us soldiers observed the lizards breathing some sort of toxic clouds from their mouths. The results of the clouds were variable based off the Engsami, but it's something we usually tried to avoid.

Unfortunately, I think you're right... Nnngh, a tactical retreat does look to be in order.

"Poor, poor little Lohrke. Seems you still can't protect anyone, can you? Kyeheheh"

>>27647
Give her the finger as you retreat. Its not your fault, buddy. They're above you right now; we need to plan for the next assault.

>>27647
Bah, don't listen to the cowardly bitch.

>>27645

Alright, on top of everything else, looks like we've got a timer hooked to our gun.

Well, unless we can find something to patch it up with. Is there any way we could fix it, very quickly and temporarily?

In any case, escape/retreat takes first priority.

I'll check my inventory and see what I can do once I find a place to rest

What looks like a good place to try and ambush the two?

The chimney circled here. Its slanted so you'll have cover, and it'll give you a good view of their movements. Only problems are the lack of bolts to fire and lack of air pressure, but if you make sure your first shot counts...

>>27664

I believe since our weapon is lacking in range now, we ought to find a high spot that we can leap from silently and land on the big guy. Once We close the distance sufficiently I doubt he'll be able to do much if we land on his back.

A high vantage point such as...The statue perhaps? Or somewhere where we can be more concealed when we make said leap of faith?

>>27667
High vantage point would be optimal. Statue sounds good.

>>27667
>>27670

I agree with the concealed leap-of-faith, but I think we'd be too easy to spot up on that statue.

If Gamera's moving south(?) and we can get there in time, the slanted roof which Satan pointed out here:

>>27666

would work quite well.

Do we have any very close range weaponry, such as a knife/dagger/entrenching tool (mini shovel)?

Also, considering we're going into some CQC here, are there any bulky pieces of armor/equipment we won't need? We might even need to temporarily dump the gun and backpack, if need be.

>>27666
I like this idea.

Warehouse rooftop it is.

My armor is pretty badly dented from that blow, I don't even want to think about what would have happened had I not been wearing it. The air compressor has a somewhat small crack in it's hull, all in all, I'm surprised that's all it's got.

In my bag I have DEMESI'S SCARF and the ENGSAMI KNIFE. Some one stole the SHOCK CUDGEL from my quarters, probably Kyaos, so the Knife currently looks like my only real melee option, though the SHOCK LANCER could probably be improvised as a melee weapon.

I can hear Ga'nneda stomping around below me, they probably know I haven't gone to far.

>>27692
Weild knife and drop onto him, using gravity on your own weight to dirve it into Kyoas. Even if you miss her, you'll likely stab the turtle's neck.

If it comes down to it, can you rig your shock lancer into an IED?

>>27692

Removing the armor is out of the question, then.

Looks like the stealth drop, followed by berserker rage is our only option here.

...And as for an improvised weapon, could you possibly turn your lancer into a kind of electric club? It would be exceedingly badass to turn it on, then drop several stories and pull some Thor shit right onto Mini-Rodan's head.

Followed by a quick shanking to finish her, of course.

>>27692
I agree with >>27699
but instead of diving down with a dagger, use a Guide Rod. With gravity on your side, you should have enough force to break through Gamera's skin, or kill Kyaos outright, and if you can pierce through that natural armor then your lightning gun will become lethal against the brute.

>>27699
>>27715

Alright, I admit these are probably better ideas than mine. But you still can't doubt the cool factor of a lightning hammer.
