With Rei disarmed temporarily, the rest of my panions on this trip joined us. "Okay, here is what's going to happen. Gramps, you take everyone around back with you to the loading area of the facility along with the vehicles and hold position there."
"Whatever you say, kid. You're in charge." The old man said simply, having hahe leadership responsibilities to me long ago.
"While you guys are waiting, I'm going to go into the facility, take trol of the tral troller, and gain administrative privileges over the robot inhabitants, so we don't have to waste our time fighting them. Does anyone have anything to add?"
"Nah, it sounds like as good a pn as any, bro." Big Tom ented.
"You know more about this pce than we do, dear, so if you haven't e up with anythier, I doubt we'll be able to." Alice added.
That was then followed up with simir responses from the rest of the party.
"Alright, I'll catch you guys in a bit, the me know if you enter any problems."
"Will do." Gramps said stly before leading the way to the rear of the structure.
Watg everyone besides myself begin heading around back within the perimeter of the facility's deteriorated and rusted n walls, I stowed my Mulcher away in my item box and walked to the expansive facility's entrance. Keeping my stealth field active, I arrived at the metal double doors of the entrance, swung them open, and stepped inside. I could've taken a peek io see what was going oher side of the doors, but there was no reason to when my perception field covered the ey of the entrance lobby and then some.
What I saw on my initial entry ical business lobby area that had seeer days. Paying no mind to the distressed state of the pce, I proceeded in the dire of the server room. However, when I made it to the right set of double doors, I sensed a group of 5 CD1 Security Robots ing right this way from the long hallway that led into the depths of the manufacturing pnt. Not wanting to provoke some sort of security respohis early into my attempt at a takeover, I hid in the shadows o the doors and waited patiently.
A very brief couple of mier, the small group of robots pushed a button oher side of the door, opening them. They then came on through when the doors slid into pd as they were about to s the surroundings, I slid past the bipedal robots aered the hallway, unbeknownst to them. Having made it past them, I turned around to check them out with my Observant perk just to see their stats before I went on my way.

This model of robot was created and marketed as an affordable rept for human security persohat would never o sleep or take breaks besides refueling. Designed by Cyberdynamics.
That's great to see. The stats are the same as they were in the wastender games.
Happy to see that things remained as I khem, I rapidly moved through the hall, all while being as stealthful as possible and not making a single sound. Due to my insane inhuman stats, I flew down the hall and arrived at one of the many security checkpoints in this factory. Direg my attention ahead of me, I saw 10 CD1 Security Robots, 4 Sentinel units, and a number of AAEL Defeurrets.
Staying hidden in the shadows, I used my Observant perk again and obtaihe stats of the new robot and turret models.
| Sentinel |Armament: 1 x 4 Tubed 80mm Rocket Pod, 1 x Gatling Laser or 5.56 MinigunCarry Capacity: 1,000Health: 1,000Resistances: DT 125Power: FusionValue: 850,000Description: The Sentinel is a tracked heavily armed bat robot that was usually used to guard or assault important targets.

Designed by Cyberdynamics.

Yup, the stats are the same as they were.
Having obtaihat bit of information, I kept to the darkness, easily made it past the checkpoint, and tinued going deeper into the facility. I pushed further and further into the massive structure wheually came across aor and a stairwell a slight ways ahead. Foing the elevator because of a number of safety s I had and it not being ducive to stealth, I proceeded to the stairwell that y ahead, wading the dust filled hall. Reag it in no more than 10 seds, I gave the handle a pull and quickly found out that it was locked.
Looks like it's time to put my Skeleton Key perk to use and gain a smidgen of exp.
Upon pleting that thought, I did just that and instantly uood what sort of lock I was dealing with. So with that knowledge in mind, I withdrew my lockpig set from my item box and got to fiddling with the lo front of me. Seds ter, I heard a distinct click from the st of the pins bei and had the metal security door wide open in no time ft. With nothing impeding my path forward now, I stepped forth through the doorway aered the stairwell.
Examining my surroundings briefly, what entered my vision was a crete stairway with walls of peeling grayish paint and a small dust covered directory located on the wall to my right. Already knowing where I o go, I didn't spare the signage a gnd swiftly headed doweps to the lower underground levels. I went down three flights of stairs, reag the lowest level of the pce where all the systems that trolled this pnt were located.
Despite my excitement rising as I neared, ever closer to making this massive robot manufacturing facility mine, I had another door blog my path, an armored bst door at that. So I broke out my Skeleton Key perk once again and figured out how to unlock the tough bastard in the blink of an eye.
*Shnunk*
That was easy.
With that door open put into the open position, I stepped through the opening and sped off in the dire of the servers. On my way there, I had to make it past several more checkpoints and a whole host of security measures, but I eventually made it to my destination. Looking at the defenses put io keep the tral troller safe, I was wholly fident of getting past them without triggering any sort of response.
Although there are 5 Sentinels blog the way along with a couple dozeurrets, they 't stop me in any way whatsoever.
Foing the more difficult option of getting by them, I activated Ghost and phased through the solid reinforced crete floor and snuck by them via the ground with the robots and defenses he wiser. Oher side of security measures, I popped up out of the floor aered the server room that was lined with numerous racks of puters that had remained funing because of a bination of factors. Those being that they were hardly used, and them being maintained by teams of Mister Maintenance robots that were pletely unaware that someone had ihis incredibly secure space.
Whilst the maintenance robots were unaware of my presence, I stuck to the shadoer usual and slowly but surely made my way to the back of the rge, spacious puter filled room. Less than a minute in, I arrived at a big puter station with a nify lookiher chair pced in front of it. Walking up to the 200+ year old chair, I took a seat in it but made sure not to put all my weight on it to e wouldn't break under my 450 plus pound body weight.
Direg my attention to the objective at hand, I turned o s monitor and before long it came to life dispying a login s that was remio the ones from my old world.
Just a heads up, I'm w on 3 different webnovels right now, so I'll be using chapter favorites, ratings, and other such things to gauge eople wao be w on. Meaning, whichever work is getting the most support through those means is probably the one most of my free time will be focused on.
Also, I posted all the auxiliary information up on Patreon, so if you've been wanting to look up what certain perks do again, for instance, you find all the informatiohere without having to gh a bazillion chapters looking for certain perks effects.
Shameless plug, I have a Patreon you read ahead and support my work on. It gives you access to every chapter I have written across all my works, including those I've yet to release, and the ability to vote in monthly polls that will determine what I'll be w on for a portion of that month.
If that sounds like something you'd be ied in, you find it below, in my bio, and on the discord server. Also, I run chapter annous through the discord, so if you want to know when the chapter is out, you find out there.
Up to date on Wastend queror? Looking for something else to read? Then go chey other work, Fallout Wastender, it's what got me started on writing this.
