Mission:The Graveyard Shift - Chapter Two: Dismemberment Fees
Chapter Two: Dismemberment Fees
Briefing
Character. Good timing. I just finished updating the case with your notes and got a notification from the deep-web 'Lok forums. As I thought might happen, it closed shop and went dark but posted a goodbye message to its users. Clues as to what's going on are starting to pop up and sprinkle all over the other forums. It seems that 'Newt' and 'Malady' were not the ringleaders of these new factions within the Vahzilok. The Bureau has reason to believe there are people higher up the ladder but these first arrests should stifle the momentum of those groups. As for the third, we know-
Agent Watkins's phone rings. He answers it quickly and tersely, and says yes, he'll wait for the text. When the text notification pings, he opens a message on his phone and begins to watch a video and shares it with you. In it, a Vahzilok Cadaver is shown being ambushed by a pack of other cadavers, tearing it limb from limb as citizens, scream in horror and flee the area. It's left snarling in pain and begging for mercy as a head and a torso on the sidewalk, while the other cadavers lumber off with its parts into the sewers.
- Brutal. Do you know where this happened?
Mission Acceptance
I do. Waste no time on this one. This video is fresh, very fresh. 27 minutes ago, 32,000 views. Nobody's going to profit on this kind of tragedy, I guarantee you that. If it's only been a half an hour, then I can give you a roughly triangulated area of where they could be in that amount of time. Start at these coordinates and look for someone who looks like they're calling the shots.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Time is against us. Find the shot-caller before they scatter!
Mission Objective(s)
A two-pronged assault greets you, a heavy mix of deep basslines hitting your ears and formaldehyde invading your nostrils.
- Hunt down the cannibal corpses
- Find the ringleader!
It seems that the Freakshow have made a play at trying to control a portion of the disorganized Vahzilok horde! Dubstitch was the puppeteer of these bomb-zombies, but there are still many out there!
