No, they're going to say who Who bombed arisaka Tower.
3:23
Wait. These people are new you retro.
3:28
I think that's bad. Oh yeah, that's bad.
3:30
But you know what? They already want to kill them
3:32
so we're already in good. Yeah they slightly inconvenience
3:35
me so dead but no one knows who's on the list.
3:41
List. Yeah, that's sweet.
3:46
The thing he does. Every year.
3:49
Well you're going to have to be a little bit more.
3:53
You guys don't know about that, sweet?
3:54
I hear three different things, three different things called
3:58
deaths. We've like a week.
3:59
You know how many people try and use that as a band name.
4:01
I was I know that bad, huh? No, no, this is this is that
4:07
like chaotic guy? That every like, every every
4:11
lie, every now and again, he tell a picks different seasons,
4:13
this time. He's doing Christmas my in and
4:15
they, he knows a bunch of secrets about These words
4:19
something that he challenges them to like this big convoluted
4:21
puzzling thing. And then, if you, if you fail at
4:24
it, you die. But if you don't, you get the
4:25
information. Yeah, it's like a media that
4:31
Runner guy that he's an asshole that makes more sense.
4:34
And looted and he's got this weird smile and and this year
4:38
he's wearing a center. Hey and and like, man, I wanted
4:42
to be on his list so much. What's your secret?
4:45
Hello now, damn it. Hey, what's up?
4:49
That's not a come on. I'm coming down from Kitten
4:51
couch, right now, I like your ears.
4:53
Do you have any ears? There is no, no, no.
4:57
No. The cat ears on your head.
4:59
Oh, those are real that's in my head, isn't it?
5:02
No, but he's a retro. I'm gonna go lie down because I
5:05
am hot as fuck. No, I did not hear the bad bit
5:10
about it. If the news, the people who
5:12
caused the big thing at arisaka, holy shit, they're in a lot of
5:16
fuck. I'll see you later because down
5:19
the stairs, pink comes back upstairs with the blossoms.
5:21
Let's make him drink thanks for. So, um, before we continue on to
5:27
Certain things I just want to clarify retro.
5:30
I go for Mezcal because it's simple and I don't make the
5:33
bartender do things. When there are a lot of people
5:35
in the bar. That's it.
5:39
Oh no, it's fine. I don't mind.
5:41
Do you want something fancy? I mean ping puts down this
5:45
fantastic ring for the sparkler in it.
5:47
Electric zapping was so you are a gift.
5:52
I bought some cyber where it's it.
5:55
I basically just switch off and I had to do it.
5:58
Oh, that's pretty cool. I never thought about having a
6:03
complicated drink before you have to.
6:05
Give me a second. Okay, just give her one of
6:08
those, you know where I am. Give him one of those.
6:11
Oh, you make another? I've only got one.
6:13
All right, it can just be an awesome bus but things already
6:16
gone down the stairs. Okay, well what's the plan crew?
6:22
What do you do? We need to get on the list but
6:25
how we gonna find out who's on the list and our with there's a
6:28
way for us to get on it. Well does there look like
6:32
there's any media types in here that I would know that I could
6:34
possibly ask? But your agent is connected to
6:40
the network node in here and you could do some searches and
6:44
stuff. Do you open up your agent?
6:52
You open up your agent and you you recognize that the
6:55
connection is unusually strong. All right.
7:01
For being underground. Yeah.
7:04
Retro you've heard of these types of things before.
7:07
What kind of figures are usually in it?
7:11
Well typically it's going to be a real good mixture of like
7:17
solos tax. You might have a meditech in
7:20
there as, you know, being paid off by one of the solos to keep
7:24
them going, definitely God. If we find a Steven there,
7:33
Probably. This is also a popular
7:35
Netrunner. We might find some net runners
7:37
in there. I can, I can met run.
7:40
You can of course you can. Net run.
7:43
I can find the list. Maybe can you let me what?
7:49
Yeah, there's a really strong connection to be down here if it
7:52
makes it easier for you. Yeah, yeah.
7:55
Let's do it gang. Did you say Steve's?
7:59
Yeah. What is that?
8:01
Roll local expert. All of us.
8:06
Whoever wants to know, what Steve's are I do you think you
8:09
already know you said a what, who local expert, local expert?
8:14
Sorry. You can also roll that to
8:15
discover more about sweet if you want.
8:17
So you learn a little bit more about sweep.
8:21
No one knows who's on the list, the list is pretty secret.
8:24
But people are told that they're on the list by getting a
8:27
message. So we would need to have you,
8:30
net run in and figure out. How to force them to send us a
8:35
message to add us on to the list.
8:37
Is that or is the what I'm getting?
8:39
Yeah, you better. If, you know, calcifer him maybe
8:42
just forge our names on the list, right?
8:45
Yeah, I couldn't do that. I can put them on.
8:48
I mean, if not, if you can at least figure out someone, we
8:52
could pay to get on the list. I can convince them.
8:55
It is my entire job. Convincing people.
8:58
Yeah. Well, tell us for want to give
9:00
it a shot. Okay.
9:03
Um, I plug in my interface plug-in, where question mark
9:12
into your agent, you're connected to the local network.
9:14
I'm looking into my age and and then I put on my virtual reality
9:19
goggles and I say it's running time baby roll interface.
9:29
All right submit More like net slowing baby.
9:37
So you end up at a node for something called sweet on the
9:41
internet. You got a quick fail and a
9:44
little spot goes off and you lose 1 HP, you come across a
9:47
password. Well interface.
9:49
Okay, 12. Yes enough.
9:51
The password was a DVD for you. Get into the next area.
9:54
And there are two rooms ahead of you.
9:56
You will have to probe to work out.
9:58
What is next? You can choose the left room or
10:01
the right room. I'm going to choose the right.
10:03
Right room roll interface 1111 you walk into this cyber room.
10:10
As part of the architecture are sitting in the room.
10:13
On top of a pile of virtual gold is a wisp and it attacks you for
10:19
10 damage. Roll interface.
10:23
Okay six you do not avoid the attack, you take for damage.
10:29
What do you do to attack? Can I activate My hell bot.
10:35
Sure. All right, I'm activating my
10:37
hell bot 11. You hit all to T6.
10:41
All Right, six causing six damage, your hellhound crushes,
10:45
the risk, and it disappears into a frame of pixel little pieces,
10:50
are on the ground. Is 100 Eddie's, and it's a dead
10:56
end. There's no further away.
10:57
Well, I got some buddies, what else?
11:01
Okay, I'm safely. About now there's one more room
11:05
to check by the way. Okay, I'm not safely.
11:07
Check it out everybody because I said there was a left room in
11:11
the right room you can go back and look at it.
11:13
I work backwards and then I turn it.
11:16
The left room, I go rolling to face death is always right, I
11:20
guess, right? 9?
11:22
Yes, you open it up and all that's in front of you.
11:25
Is the list and then you start hearing a laugh and you get
11:32
forced out of the network. Work and you fall back in your
11:34
chair and everyone looks at you. Okay, so I entered a room, the
11:41
list was there, and then I heard some laughter and I'm pretty
11:46
sure I was in the right place, but I'm not sure.
11:51
I'm not trying to try to go back in.
11:54
I don't know. You have a nosebleed.
11:57
Oh no, I am on the list. I looks like I made the list to
12:08
looks like whatever you did. You did it?
12:11
Well this turn from no no no to ho ho ho we're getting a retro.
12:21
What you're searching for? What Steve's are?
12:23
You have a look at the entry and you read about a gang that used
12:26
to be Rife across night City. A bunch of Fairly stupid Rocket,
12:29
Boys, all with gold skin but all looked Unbelievably alike.
12:34
Even the videos of them as annoying and they had a
12:36
high-pitched annoying voice like this, very irritating fucking
12:42
staves. And as you close the message,
12:46
you look again at your screen. Oh guys, we have I'm going to
12:54
fucking windows. I don't care if I have to kill
12:56
all of you. Wait, what does all I'm saying?
13:01
Is if this works. This is Juicy as fuck.
13:07
Oh, God never had the opportunity to get somebody
13:09
before they get you. And let's fuck.
13:13
No, never won. I don't know what that means.
13:17
The clam got me. That's all I know.
13:20
No, this is my. This is, my clamp is my fucking
13:24
client your enemy. If I had the chance to shuck
13:29
this clam hunger, Let's go shuck a clam man.
13:38
Evocation, so Chuck me. No, I'm gonna give this one more
13:43
shot. Oh yeah, absolutely shots for
13:46
everyone Pancakes. Yes, You got it.
13:50
Um, wow. Well ping is pouring out those
13:53
drinks. I'd like to walk up to thing so
13:56
hey ping her. Do you you saw about the sweep,
14:00
right? Yeah.
14:03
And you know what, he's on the list.
14:04
Yes yes, be cool. Looks like we just made the
14:07
list. Oh, what's the what's the prize
14:10
this year? I didn't see, we get to know the
14:15
bombers of arisaka building Wait, I try that sauce?
14:21
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a big secret.
14:29
I mean, also tell everyone about Domino and oh yeah, oh, that's
14:34
bad. So I'm on the list and they're
14:37
on the list, they don't know yet, but like, good time to take
14:42
care of this, you might want to let them know, just in case
14:46
right now, I'm on that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
14:49
So, if you're on the list, then you'll have to find out where it
14:53
is this year, too. Yes.
14:57
Okay, so I'm going to take Vanna White.
14:59
Okay, when you know, I'd I got the coordinates, we better be
15:07
taken off then, but yeah, you know, beyond shotgun, I'm
15:13
getting. So I can everybody sucks sucks
15:15
to suck. So retro, as you're talking to
15:19
Ping, your tile goes off again, and you get another message is a
15:23
repeating set of binary code. All right.
15:28
Wish I can't decipher. I mean, I have prepared if you
15:35
want to roll to get to the value.
15:38
Sorry, I'm so used to you hiding your little.
15:41
If you run into it the hard way, you totally don't want to do it
15:44
the hard way. I do not want to do it the hard
15:48
way, who wrote I did. Oh, you roll a creek 24.
15:53
I'm going to tell you the truth about what I wrote on this and
15:56
you can choose to have whatever you want.
15:58
We go. So I wrote in my GM notes.
16:00
I've got for a DB 12, you can just No, the binary code and
16:03
work it out yourself. Hmm.
16:05
For DV 21 or above, you can know what it actually says.
16:08
Without cracking the code, what would you prefer?
16:12
Everyone's 21 what you decipher from the message is a ZIP code
16:18
in night. City.
16:19
Awesome. Well I I'm going to just
16:26
decipher those. It's the same thing.
16:29
What's the told you? So I'm just double checking for
16:35
sure. Sneaky is.
16:38
Okay, so I gotta zip code, y'all?
16:41
Oh yeah. Oh, so did I?
16:44
Until I just didn't know what it was.
16:46
It was just ones and zeroes. I assumed it was a glitch.
16:49
Yeah, I know. Is we got night City?
16:53
Southwest 33 P. So probably let me let me pull
17:00
out, you know, our GPS. This video is just for you but
17:05
row as the only version that seems to notice, is our how
17:09
prepared should we be? Do I need to go buy more
17:12
bullets? Do I need to make another three
17:16
mics and Rod? Are we trying to kill each
17:21
chromatid weapon? That's Hannah live up to.
17:29
Are we trying to kill each other again?
17:34
Sorry but my circle has been a little bit for it so I don't
17:37
know what this is for right now. We don't have to kill each
17:42
other, the rule like for way we can cut it.
17:46
Just all worked like we could kill each other if you want or
17:50
we can all just kind of work together and get it all the way
17:53
to the main boss and then see what happens from there.
17:57
So then if the main boss is like Like kill each other.
18:00
We kill the boss, like we could kill the boss and then share the
18:04
spoils. Like, we do as a clan or we can
18:07
also have somebody who stabbed Us in the back.
18:09
Hopefully, it doesn't do that. Did you just say clam or Clan?
18:14
Good? God.
18:15
Homeless a clam and just casual conversation.
18:18
Besides you calzacorto know. I might do something.
18:22
I felt something watching me. I don't know.
18:24
Everybody pings are shots to the table.
18:29
Hey guys, need to be prepared, gospel, you could always go to
18:32
clients. It's got weapons and stuff,
18:35

18:39
shots I do too, I poured into my helmet, but I miss my mouth
18:47
entirely. I also for the alcohol.
18:52
Feels cool. On your chest and it calms, you
18:54

19:08
elevator where that a widest part.
19:11
I jump in them shotgun see before we'll get inside, Vanna,
19:18
White, and your head to climbs. Night City.
19:34
If you look at a map of North America, somewhere on the
19:36
western edge, you'd see an Inky black top with fingers pressing
19:40
into the side of the continent, that's where you find night City
19:43
and somewhere in the middle of that.
19:45
Inky black dot, it's a giant smoking hole, like the universe
19:49
itself, Drew iron and shot straight through the city,
19:52
radiation turn the sky red, but our story starts a little

in a while we're not your actual Crow, I'm sad.
23:35
Well, you're my friends. They're just my crew.
23:38
I'm so glad that we're all friends in real life.
23:41
Now we're all choose here. Yes, I'm imagine.
23:45
You are, how did you guys meet Wade Ridge?
23:52
Embarrassed, want to say that again?
23:55
Have you ever played critically acclaimed multiple massively
23:58
multiplayer? Online game.
24:00
Insert name here? Yeah.
24:06
Best best. I'm here.
24:08
Yep. Yes.
24:11
That's that's the one that's not as popular as the other one.
24:13
I can't remember. Yeah, yeah, that's name here.
24:15
Yeah, with the dark woods. Yes.
24:19
The tentacle thing and all the Christmas stuff.
24:20
That's why it's not very popular.
24:22
Yeah, it's also free to play. So it's called Jingle hell's
24:26
because they refuse to remember it.
24:28
But, you know that. Yes.
24:29
No, that's bad. And so does anyone else want
24:31
anything? Love a gun?
24:34
You have you want a whole gun and Connie looking for one that
24:37
will shoot preferably? Right.
24:40
And one that has more than in its slot magazine.
24:45
All right. Well how about I tell you what I
24:49
mean about that? Ma'am.
24:50
I'm looking again and I've got a lot of guns that I like your
24:52
gun. So we would necessarily be an
24:55
upgrade. I do have some ammo, you might
24:56
be interested. You have Mo got some armor
24:59
piercing ammo, you shoot something it does to damage to
25:02
their Alma rather than one Do a little bit more damage.
25:05
How's that sound level to me? Yeah, great, no, no, that's
25:07
fine. I know a big stack of that is 85
25:10
guy get killed. That's 25 bullets.
25:13
There you go. Cool, beans.
25:16
Clive stress can I have some letters?
25:21
I need to write Christmas cards for my friends because I forgot.
25:26
And that's why. Yes, there's a vending machine
25:28
behind you. That has Christmas cartridge.
25:29
Thank you so much. I'll end up spending 70.
25:35
Eddie's on they come with postage by, we don't need any
25:44
holiday specials, holiday special.
25:47
Yeah yes I've got a flashbang grenade that I've got one other
25:50
one. This one instead of flashbang
25:53
it's glitter. Yeah.
25:58
How many of those you got just what?
26:00
Just the one. Just the one.
26:01
Yes, it looks like a Christmas bauble.
26:04
It's incredibly distracting. It doesn't blind anyone but it
26:06
makes everybody look that way. Yes!
26:08
Nice! You got that.
26:11
Stick them. Left over a sticker.
26:14
Sticky grenade. Let me one of those just just
26:17
just the regular stick, um, you know, that they put on clothes
26:19
for a better grip. Oh, yes.
26:22
Now, I've got some of that. Yeah, that stuff's like that
26:24
yet. He's got a name.
26:25
Tube. Yeah, let me get some of that
26:27
and let me get that good at grenade.
26:30
I had and I rolled I have one sticky grenade.
26:32
Just one I'll take that too but the Christmas grenade is a gift
26:37
so you can just have that. Thank you.
26:39
And the sticker sticker. Grenade is my last one and my
26:42
guy does have a lot left so unfortunate as to hundred you
26:46
know what Clive? I'm going to give you 250 just
26:50
because you've always been so great to us.
26:52
That's so nice. Look at that, it's a Christmas
26:54
miracle retro. Bunny clapping speaking of retro
27:00
spending money instead. So you bought me that Christmas
27:03
gift of the grenade. I'm just gonna fly past,
27:07
whatever fun camaraderie you have because it looks wonderful,
27:11
it does. But tell me, what's the best you
27:15
could do for me for? I don't know, an armored coat.
27:21
Oh, yes. Now we've got some of that.
27:23
Let me see. Like I have one shield and I
27:28
have two armored jackets for what it's not expensive but it's
27:34
got RGB. Yeah, so for that one, what's
27:38
the absolute best you could do for price for that?
27:43
And I'm lucky that the Cyber Shield, or The put, the jacket,
27:47
the jacket with the RGB. Oh right?
27:50
The jacket with the RGB. Yes, no one of those is 450 and
27:54
one of the RGB is 5. 100. 500. Yes.
28:01
Now, what if it's got 12 armor, that's very good.
28:05
What If instead of 500? It was 100.
28:17
Compelling game watching. What you've?
28:19
What you've put up against me now I would not say is a
28:22
persuasion roll, this is a Face-Off.
28:26
Okay wait, I have an idea. What if all right?
28:30
No I think this is a facedown. Cool plus reputation plus 1 D
28:35
10. Great.
28:37
This is a fun mechanic where your the more reputation you
28:40
have the more you can persuade people and it gives them a - to
28:43
their role. Yeah, christening.
28:45
So let's see cool plus after reward that crate that's pretty
28:48
good. Oh I create didn't see what the
28:52
role was just as soon as you said face down I was like okay
28:57
let me try and find a button for that.
29:00
What does that 22? It's a demand is very high.
29:04
It's not a correct but it's very, very high.
29:06
You rolled over 20. On a facedown, they rolled a
29:09
they rolled a three on their dice And rolled a respectable 13
29:15
spectable 34 shop owner. That's not bad.
29:19
Yeah. Now look at you with your video
29:22
Gaston trying to get a discount and you know full well I can't
29:25
give it to you for 100. Oh, no future but what if
29:29
absolutely but I like that, you low-balled me.
29:31
So I'll tell you what with that persuasion crit you got.
29:34
Just before I asked you to do a facedown. 24 plus one.
29:38
Holy ball sack. Yeah.
29:40
I'm going to say it's the one thing I'm too.
29:42
Can have it for half price. She's a very good deal.
29:46
Half price to 50. Is not bad.
29:48
All right, all right, all right, 250 is not bad.
29:52
It's still more than I have. Okay?
29:55
Yes. But, but do you know?
29:56
But I know it's a GM that Retros Rich As Fuck, so it's going to
29:59
be fine. Do you need money?
30:02
I don't because I have is I You know what I can do?
30:09
Also, this was supposed to be for children GM.
30:12
All right, fine. I'm just I'm just gonna all
30:18
right. All right.
30:19
Here's here's the extra 150. Eddie's 250.
30:23
That's two for 250 is what I have 100 left.
30:27
Yeah I'm covering I'm covering the rest.
30:31
I was not buying it outright. That's not very Christmassy.
30:33
Is it. Hey, who just gave you an extra
30:35
50 for Christmas? Your majesty.
30:38
I'm just giving you stick their retro.
30:41
Conversely go on, go on your little say you little shit.
30:46
Fine. Anyway, looks like you've got
30:48
all your shit. If you're on the list, they
30:50
wouldn't take long, somebody else finds out, you're you're
30:54
naughty things. Be in trouble for to.
30:57
Yeah, it would be bad if you found out some people's naughty
31:00
things. Yes, I'm so curious as to what
31:04
all of your sodas. I'm alright.
31:07
I'm alright. Red leaves, Clive's and heads
31:10
into the van. Does everyone follow?
31:12
Okay, as I run and try and get shotgun Clyde?
31:14
Do you know what the secret is? No.
31:17
Okay. Cave.
31:20
Right now I have to figure out. My secret is only 2%.
31:24
Yeah, we gotta figure itself and then we got to go roll the
31:27
driving test. Okay?
31:35
Let me channel my inner Jeb. I could have been where I've
31:43
seen. Yes.
31:46
As you head out to this wet, to this location head underneath an
31:50
overpass, down an Alleyway, and there's this weird clearing just
31:54
on the edge of the combat zone. And if you hadn't had the
31:58
address, you would have never come down here.
32:00
There's this big Square building in the middle of this open lot.
32:05
And there's a big parking space painted on the ground
32:08
haphazardly says Vanna White. Oh my God.
32:13
Private parking. Oh my God.
32:18
Uh yeah, VIP treatment fine. Everything's fine.
32:24
Nothing to go. Probably they know a lot.
32:30
How you get a text back then kill them.
32:36
Well, everybody better barking. The assigned spot.
32:39
We have to follow the instructions, just like the hand
32:43
washing, some new parking me some spot, but I'm gonna make a
32:47
perception to make sure that there ain't no Tom fuckery
32:49
around my spot. At real perception.
32:54
Yeah, you get out of the van. It's cool.
33:03
Clapton, you rolled a Crest 23 plus to your perception is wild.
33:09
And the thing that you do notice is a part being a Netrunner as
33:13
you can usually feel if you really listen where a computer
33:16
is and you feel like all the computers on the right door, And
33:21
as you look over to the right door, everyone you're looking at
33:23
these two doors and on the doors, it says on the right yet.
33:27
Runners should go this way. And on the left it says this is
33:31
where the fight is. So you've been given a choice.
33:35
It looks like you have to split up for this to work.
33:38
All right, everybody. so, it does say, That Clapton should go
33:46
there but I don't have someone cover me.
33:53
Well, hear me out these people. Clearly have a lot of power and
34:00
we know a whole bunch of shit regardless.
34:04
So maybe following destructions might be the best because also
34:11
clamped in no offense. We weren't the best shot until
34:17
the very end. Yeah, you'd write.
34:19
None of the rest of us. Know how to do the weird.
34:23
Whoosh whoosh. That you know how to do this?
34:25
You're right. I agree.
34:28
If we do split up, it would probably be best if I go with
34:34
clamped in and just watch his body here outside of net space.
34:39
Hell yeah, I think I got something to help.
34:43
I'm gonna please ask for this back clamp him and I'm going to
34:47
disengage my half Shield. Oh you know give it to Clapton.
34:54
Thank you. So that's going to give you 50
35:01
extra HP. So like when you take if you
35:04
take damage in the real world that kind of thing, the shield
35:07
will take that for the damage, they're so sweet retro.
35:13
It does not protect you against La, a dolt.
35:16
Yeah. In any shape or form but I'm
35:18
also going to hand off my combat shovel just in case because
35:22
maybe that would hope your problems, okay, as your
35:24
brawling. Okay mine.
35:27
Yeah, maybe I don't know, I'm gonna hold onto my combat shovel
35:35
then. Yeah, it's not but I will give
35:40
you my smoke and sticky. Grenade.
35:44
Oh, thank you. I'm going to give you two lines
35:48
in my next song. I'm Gonna Give You All these
35:53
cards for Christmas. Don't read them and don't read
35:58
them yet, okay? It's not okay, I'm gonna put it
36:04
in my, I'm gonna put it in my backpack.
36:06
It's Something happens, then you can read it or we read it all
36:10
together. All right.
36:13
Are you okay? I guess use the biggest
36:15
question. What do you want to do?
36:18
So, the end of the day we can say what we think.
36:21
What you're your own person? What do you want to do?
36:24
Not run baby, then go. Net run, baby.
36:28
Whoops, it's at, this isn't this door.
36:33
Know, how did you get back to the cars?
36:36
The door, the door. The right, the door on the right
36:38
is the one that says that Runner should go here man boys.
36:43
All right let's let's so I'm not inspirational but let's let's
36:48
go. Yeah select row as you go up to
36:51
the door you notice a smaller sign that says doors must be
36:54
opened simultaneously. Fuck.
36:58
All right. 321 do yeah, I'm open the door.
37:04
You you to be ready to shoot just in case, right?
37:08
Who's going, who's going with Clapton?
37:12
Since we, I will go with Clapton bag.
37:17
And as we're as, we're splitting, splitting, I'll take
37:20
a half second to whisper to Adonia.
37:23
Figure out. Don't shoot.
37:25
And then I walk over to Clapton. Yeah, really quick.
37:29
I just pull you back. I'm like thinking about why he
37:31
thinks he's a ham. It's just, I pull out my heavy,
37:37
heavy pistol, and my melee weapon was one hand.
37:40
I'm like, I'm fucking ready, baby?
37:43
Three, two, one. Happy New Year.
37:49
Nope, too early. Okay, yippie kayak motherfucker.
37:53
So you open the doors retro and Adonia?
37:57
You step into a room. And there's a screen on the far
38:00
wall. And there are four markings on
38:02
the ground. The other side of the room,
38:04
there are a bunch of boxes, bunch of lockers.
38:07
There's a vending machine in here and a door with no lock or
38:11
anything. That seems that could be able to
38:13
interface with. It is a big sheet of metal
38:16
through the wall. Oh, and you're in this room on
38:17
the other side of a thick wall, to your right hand side of these
38:21
lockers is where cave and Clapton are Netrunner stepped
38:26
into the place where they were told to go cave and Clapton.
38:30
As you step into this room. There are two big guys standing
38:35
here and they look at you. Oh, you guys are the worst?
38:40
Yeah, yes. Okay, well this part of the
38:44
puzzle involves guns. You guys.
38:46
Initiative. Yeah girl fuck psyched out.
38:52
Retro anhedonia please also roll initiative.
38:54
Okay this part requires guns. I've got two baby, a baby right?
38:59
I don't hear you at the bottom of initiative.
39:01
This means you are now staring at the vending machine trying to
39:04
work out what to get. I will let you know what is in
39:07
the vending machine comes to your turn retro.
39:11
You actually rolled highest on initiative and you stare at the
39:14
screen for a moment and as just Staring at the screen, some
39:18
lines appear, the first word is riddle and the second line says,
39:23
one was yellow. While you're staring at this.
39:25
On the other side of the wall, with these two guards standing
39:28
in front of them, is Clapton and Cave cave.
39:31
Yeah. So with bass and treble still
39:35
out from. When we came in the door, I'm
39:37
going to basically, just to make sure they can't hit through.
39:40
Drop a grenade or a flamethrower on either of us.
39:43
I'm just I'm gonna combat roll over this way.
39:47
And then blast a shot with each bass and treble at this guy, the
39:53
guy on the left, the guy on the left.
39:54
Yes, right because they can't see face your left Weapon.
39:59
It's beautifully, the guy gets hit right in the haunch, on his
40:03
left side and he reels back as the bullet drives Force into his
40:08
body, taking a step back and pushing against the desk chair
40:12
and computer behind him. Your other bullet misses
40:15
entirely But it's not a crit - fail, so it just sticks into the
40:20
concrete wall and you're now standing next to a vending
40:22
machine and a bunch of boxes, imagine what happens if I hit
40:26
both shots, you should give up Robert suasion.
40:29
Okay. 21 Jesus, you you see him? You see his left hand shake we
40:36
go. Yeah.
40:37
No. That's, let's get that hurt.
40:40
That was that was that was, that was painful.
40:42
I liked not that, that was rubbish.
40:47
You could give up forever. Sure you absolutely could give
40:49
up. We're gonna - to an extra bowl
40:52
but this sucks. Okay, fair enough plantain is,
40:55
you can make your choices, okay? Can I use my bonus action to try
41:01
and because I can tell that he's nervous done.
41:05
Can I try and jump on top of him?
41:08
Yes. Okay, cool.
41:09
It would that be an Athletics? Yes.
41:12
Okay, cool. Okay, that's gonna be my bonus.
41:15
Action will see you. This works.
41:17
Okay, no nine. Well, here's the thing because
41:21
it's a melee attack. He has to roll evasion.
41:25
Okay, so if he rolls a fail and there's a good chance that you
41:29
can do this. Nope, there's no it didn't
41:31
happen though, because he brought a 15 on evasion, you go
41:33
to grab him, you walk forward, he Dodges just enough.
41:37
He has, he has six more points in this fight than you do.
41:42
Right now, that means that you step forward, smash your head
41:45
against the desk lose 18, P it's really embarrassing.
41:48
Oh no guys. I'm still shooting stuff though.
41:50
Okay so I'm right there I'm gonna I'm gonna shoot my weapon
41:55
out of which is a rate of fire of two.
41:59
Do I hit 14 and 9, your first shot hits.
42:04
The second shot, you're so nervous.
42:05
It misses and sticks into the wall.
42:07
On the other side of the room it does five damage to this guy a
42:11
little bit less because of his armor and he takes a step back
42:15
from you avoiding you and you'll grab.
42:19
Huh. I'm gonna drag it.
42:22
Your second bullet is missed and you've run out of actions.
42:25
You're now standing in the corner of this room and it is
42:28
That guy's turn really funny guard, pulls out his very heavy
42:32
pistol and shoots, you hitting you in the shoulder for for your
42:37
armor mark - 14 damage and your Armor gets a bladed by one.
42:41
Okay, I see how that works, huh? Okay.
42:44
It's pretty cool system. It is pretty cool.
42:48
Okay, I got it and that's why Alex your bullets that you've
42:53
got that do armor a Blasian they would take to away from someone
42:56
summer in this case. Nice do you can Whittle them
43:00
down and kill it. I love killing people cooker.
43:02
Yeah. Right now a heavy pistol only
43:05
has a rate of fire of one so that's a lot of damage.
43:09
And he he attempts to move towards the door.
43:12
He goes over to the door, pushes it and realizes that it's
43:15
locked. Shit.
43:17
That's fucked us to. I'm not on the list.
43:21
Neither bodyguard. It's his turn.
43:23
No, I'm not on the list either, but I do have a gun.
43:26
He pulls out a shotgun and shoots you 11 missing trap know
43:34
from his shotgun blasts across the wall and bits of the The
43:38
concrete wall fall around you you know there's not a lot of
43:45
cover here, this might be bad. I don't, I am on the other side
43:50
of the wall staring at this painting machine, and there's
43:53
some food in there. There's a grenade as a sticky
43:58
grenade. 175, it's pretty good deal.
44:02
Actually 25 Eddie's off as pretty cool as your favorite
44:08
canned. Ink in there and there's the
44:10
drink that you saw in the ad in the message.
44:11
You got earlier as well some boost it's a narcotic for sure,
44:16
but it would give you a bonus and it's cheap tickets 4840
44:21
Eddie's and get a can of boost nice.
44:24
And then I was going to turn out to be like.
44:25
So this is like a waiting room. I don't know what, why are you
44:30
looking at? Also, look what I got.
44:32
Oh, shit is up. Boost Drugs right now to round
44:40
up for, it's a good even number. What are you looking at?
44:48
Yeah, I'm gonna give me a boost. All right, primary effect lasts
44:54
24 hours for the duration of the primary effect.
44:56
The uses intelligence increases by two points.
44:58
This can raise your intelligence above eight secondary effect.
45:01
So, if the role of DB 17 on this, it's a bad drug.
45:05
The user wasn't already addicted to boost.
45:06
They are. Now, while addicted, their Since
45:08
is lowered by two points, that won't happen till after the
45:11
first do you can go to a med tech to get rid of that.
45:14
But you that doesn't count as your drugs that was to resist
45:17
drinking it. No.
45:18
Yeah, I was Sameer is, is drinking.
45:20
So, you know, - oh, yes. And you have to be a DV 17.
45:23
Otherwise, you're addicted to boost.
45:27
Are you also drinking the Boost? Yeah, I'm drinking the booze
45:30

46:35
happening on the other side. Yeah.
46:38
So the the guy that went over to the door that we've that we've
46:43
shot a little bit already. I'm gonna I'm gonna pull up bass
46:46
and treble and while running towards him I'm going to shoot
46:51
I'm gonna shoot once each with bass and treble.
46:55
And then running towards him, as I get up to him, I want to just
46:58
kind of shoulder. Check him into the wall with my
47:00
bonus action. Oh nice.
47:02
Yeah, Rowlett latex, as well as your gun.
47:04

47:14
shoulder. Check, Yes, 14.
47:17
Nice 14, they meet and because they meet they lose because the
47:23
attacker wins. Ends in a meet, you smack this
47:26
guy against the door and blow two bullets into him, and he
47:29
drops like a sack of shit that guy's dead, you're cornered him,
47:34
you knocked him out and then while he was out blew his
47:36
fucking brains out and that guy's blood spatters, all up the
47:39
wall That's business. And I look over to the next guy.
47:45
Wow. That was so fucking gnarly.
47:49
Nice. Think this guy's interested in
47:51
taking you on a date, though. Dude, mommy said it's your turn.
47:54
Is the Hue. Okay, I'm gonna try, he's very
47:58
attractive. I'm gonna try and jump on the
48:00
mechanics. I mean claps try to beat you up
48:12
but you're close enough. You can hear each other.
48:13
If you want to, you can totally. You've got like short-range
48:18
communication guys. This drink tastes like mango.
48:22
What what are you talking about? Okay, Athletics likes, that's a.
48:32
That's actually not bad. So they get 16.
48:36
He avoids your your hit this time.
48:39
The difference isn't that bad? You actually don't manage to hit
48:41
your head on the table feeling. It's a victory.
48:44
Pull out your weapons and I shoot gotta shoot baby 15 and
48:50
14. You hit with both shots, hit him
48:54
Square in the neck. Blood starts to pour out
48:57
everywhere. Bit of it, gets in your eye,
48:59
this guy starts. I need eyes on the ground and is
49:06
Santa hat falls off and gets covered in blood combat.
49:09
I where the sender had on top of the clam helmet.
49:13
Cool. Yeah.
49:14
Now, put a Santa hat in your mentoring did the other guy have
49:18
a Santa hat as well? Or was it just that way?
49:20
Yes, it is also covered in blood.
49:21
I take the second bloody Santa hat and put it onto.
49:23
Can you tell us covered in blood?
49:25
If it's already a red Santa hat, there's white board.
49:27
It's got blood on it. Okay, the fight has finished and
49:32
the screen flashes once more Trent there in front of you you
49:36
can see the full riddle one was yellow.
49:41
One was like for almost frankly no sense.
49:44
So any you any you raised around people that still prayed to
49:52
different Catholic saints? No.
49:56
All right. Then tis the season.
50:00
Those are all the gifts for baby Jesus.
50:04
One, gold frankincense and myrrh.
50:08
That was pretty good. I see what the hell was
50:12
frankincense. It's not.
50:15
It's a spice. It's a, frankly have no idea
50:19
what one can have. The fangs has why he hot summer
50:22
fur? Well, yeah, three wise men.
50:25
I guess the answer is a four-letter, word gift.
50:30
You're able to change the letters on the ground using your
50:32
feet by scrolling them gift baby retro.
50:37
Yeah. Ji-hye.
50:41
Yes, T gift. And as you change the letters on
50:48
the ground, they turn green. And the door opens they
50:53
satisfying history. Wow, that was actually
50:58
extremely. Satisfying.
51:00
I actually feel a little calmer after hearing that and the Next
51:03
Room, awaits you here on the death.
51:07
Sweet next time on no latency cyclist.
51:26
I'm yeah, I'm just very shaken. So I'm just going to Shaklee put
51:29
another joint in my mouth and light it.
51:32
Here's the thing. Only one of these is a new thing
51:35
to me. So the dark room is more scary.
51:38
I can't really talk about it. I say, we stealth him first.
51:42
We could also try and play the game of yelling to him.
51:45
That we know he's there. Are you doing synth Coke over
51:49
there? This time, I'm gonna go on the
51:51
left or I learned my lesson. Also, I really fucking hate you
51:56
for the record gasps gasps gasps Wirt sand sand is released.
52:00
I don't know. Can you do anything about that?
52:02
Wow, I feel almost like not a clam.
52:06
