Keep an eye out for anyone trying to steal the box. (Anyone besides our team, that is.)

Also keep an eye out for drones in the air. If this was meant to test new weapons/equipment then there might be drones around to document the results of the test. And they might not be happy that we took it.

Finally scan the nearby network for any info/manual/beacons/data drives related to the equipment. If nothing is found, then use the vast library of KNOWLEDGE my new body provides me with to deduce what the equipment may be.

"If there's nothing else you want to do, I suggest we head towards the Bizarre."

Scan the area with my drones, search for where the cargo landed. If found, relay location to team.
See if there are any people willing to pay us in exchange for a ride out of the anomaly's way and to the Bizarre.
If we can make money as an armored taxi, why not?
Make sure our ride is out of the way of the anomaly. Preferably move it towards the fallen container so that those looting can get back in quickly. If that's not possible, then move it towards the Bizarre instead.

"Good evening gentlemen."
Salute the crowd nonchalantly and then get inside. Buy a drink in exchange for nutrient paste and then ask the bartender what they do here to have fun/pass the time and who would be a good person to talk to if I want some bombs/grenades.

Can this new body of mine drink stuff?

"Don't play that. I'll give you something to play."

Change the "We come here in peace and wish to make a trade. Do not assault us or we will retaliate." recording to something more along the lines of "Don't mess with us and we won't mess with you. It's in your best interest to let us go about our scientific expedition and not grab the attention of our heavily armed security team." Best not to let them think we have anything valuable until it's actually time to trade.

Keep an eye drone or two out for ambushes.

Once we reach the Gilded Razor, do a scan of the local network to see if I can glean anything. Maybe some equipment leftover from the last team. Maybe someone using combat drones. Maybe just to get an idea about how much tech they have around here.

1. Ask the commander if he can tell us if there were any other teams sent here recently (not necessarily from OMNITECH, other companies or government too), if any could be still alive, how they fared and if he has any advice to offer us on how to not end up like them. Or any advice about how to stay alive in general.

2. Ask the commander how well technology fares further into the zone. The "leak" caused some distortions on screens and drones. Would those be worse the closer we get to the center? Would those distortions be damaging to tech or robots? Are the people in the zone still using modern tech (i.e. something I could hack) or have they reverted to older sturdier tech?

3. Ask the commander if we should be wary of weather phenomena. Does rain that passes over Detroit become "contaminated"?

4. Ask the commander what would be the "best case scenario" should we manage to be so lucky as to locate and reach the source of the anomaly. What would be a "happy end" by his standards?

5. Keep watching the view from the drone to see if something special happens during the leak and what it looks like when it finishes.

6. Once we start moving, keep a drone flying around to give us a bird eye's view, make sure nobody is laying in ambush or something.

Have a camera drone land on Yagyu to keep an eye on him, just in case they try to kidnap him or something.

Send another drone out to watch the show. If this is a regular occurrence it might be worth knowing more about.


If anyone is around, try to start a conversation in the hopes of learning more about what's going on: "Does this happen often?"

"Not giving your employees the proper resources they need to complete the objectives you set out for them in the pursuit of lucrative R&D opportunities is called being penny wise, pound foolish. I’ll have to make a spreadsheet sometime to prove it. But, so be it."
"Just buy some yourself and quit complaining. The Edmobile's got some rations in it anyways if we really need them."
"It's a great opportunity to go fishing, just saying. Just fill the Tour Bus with fresh fish. It'll be great for trading."

Do fish actually exist in this world? I mean free fish roaming the oceans that are free to catch without needing to purchase a fishing license from OMNITECH.

Take a loan of 20 OMNI to buy 20 units of Nutrient Paste. Maybe we could sell it to the locals. Or maybe we can give it to the flesh horror and have it transform the nutrients into human flesh and trade that to the cannibals.

INTERACTIVE MAP OF DETROIT
You can click on it to add points of interest.

"So, Ed boy, I see you got yourself a shiny new body? How does it feel to be a taxi?"
"Feels pretty good, honestly. All the extra armour and cannons give me a nice peace of mind, for now."

"Tour bus!" Pathos corrects Yagyu while admiring his handiwork.
"Hey, mister roboto, I know you're a big deal and all now but I'd really appreciate if you could refrain from vandalizing my body."
"Vandalizing? Improving, more like. People have no appreciation for art these days."

"I am ready to proceed."

Use spray paint to name the APC "OMNITECH Tour Bus" and decorate it with vacation scenes: a sunset with tropical trees, sunbathing, drinking... EDIT: Wait, that would be out of character for Pathos. Let's have him paint a giant robot shooting a nuke and Bob sunbathing in the glow of the nuclear mushroom, wearing sunglasses and holding a cocktail glass with a fish and a little umbrella in it. That's what vacations are all about, right?

"Our first destination should be Ann Arbor. We could get information there. We could even hire a tour guide. If we're lucky we might even find official exclusion zone T-shirts! I'm sure Bob would love to have one of those."

1. Could I drive the APC if our AI driver is incapacitated? Do I fit in the driver's seat?
2. Could I inject a demon into a car and have it drive around? Or would it need to be a self driving car?
3. Any advice/info about identifying anomalies/safe paths? Would it be useful to hire a local tour guide? Are there even safe paths or are the anomalies constantly moving and changing?
4. If we find and capture an interesting human or animal, can we bring them back or would that break quarantine and get the army shooting at us? If we find one of those scientists, could we give them to OMNITECH or do they need to stay in the zone?
5. Any particularly successful gangs/warlords we should know about/watch out for? Anyone we could potentially negotiate with for information? Perhaps in exchange for taking care of some other gang for them?
6. What's the situation on Ann Arbor? Under military control? Some militia keeping the peace? Some warlord ruling the place? An uneasy peace between gangs? Warzone?

I guess I'll level up speech twice and then I'm ready to go. It's fun being the only one skilled with something. Also, I could team up with EEED and help him with proselytizing.

Edit: Use spray paint to make Bob's spider look prettier and/or more intimidating. Maybe paint some TRON lines on it with the glow paint?

I'll take a loan of 500 OMNI, sell the stuff for 877 OMNI and buy that auditor body. As a special favor, can they make it spider-shaped or octopus-shaped? Maybe for a few extra OMNI? My standard paycheck is 850 OMNI so I can afford to take a bigger loan if necessary.

Oh, and of course, if anyone wants to buy that stuff from me instead, I'm happy to sell it to them. Better to keep it in the family security team.
