Never a milkrun when going after ex-milsec...
| Phoenix Corps been dissolved for weeks, and it wasn't like they had any sort of leadership after their castle went boom-boom. So who the hell put all the security up?
Turns out, it was almost automated. Some corrupted, broken AI inside watching the whole compound. Decker uploaded something, blew ALL the security away like paper. Don't know how he did it, don't give a shit.
So we crack open some warehouse doors, and guess what was inside?
A whole heaping pile of NOTHING!
| So what happens when this "Holy" gets knowledge back that the stuff he thought was there is no longer there? Normally, most people'd be pissed, but this guy? You gotta hear this:
"It wasn't the weapons we wanted", he said, "-It was the AI running the security." Shot the decker in the face right in front of me, and then freaking >apologized to us, and paid us each 150,000 zenny as a 'consultation fee'!
Don't know what his deal was, but it was weird man. Real weird.
| Tell you what though, just glad it wasn't me that got shot. The gun he shot? It was abnormal as all hell. It glowed with some sort of hot orange energy, and it shot a blast of molten goo that melted the guy's face off, and then his skull, and then his brain, and proceeded to melt the rest of his freaking body! I don't know what kinda tech that is, but I'm gonna keep an eye out for it. Don't want to be on the recieving end.
My question is, what would you want with a broken AI?
| Which is where I'm at now.
I went back to the place with another tech-nerd to see if he could pull anything out of there worth salvaging, but he said it was all gone. Somebody else must have taken it, or maybe the old decker that got offed did and Holy didn't know it and he burnt it with Holy's body, who knows? I wanna know where the thing went, because I wanna know what kind of money I can get for it. If somebody really wanted it for 15-million zenny it HAS to be worth something.
| So, if ANYBODY is willing to help me somehow find this mysterious missing AI, I'm willing to share some profits.
Name is a prototype code: AGENT_AI, something that was supposed to be high tech and secret but was but a broken shell when we found it. The Decker thought it was supposed to be some sort of protection-enhancement AI for a suit of armor, which leads me to believe it likely jumped suit (pun not intented) on somebody's armor and just device-hopped onto the Matrix.
| >>323293 The famous Geekboy throws his hat in! Well, if you'd like to start, I'm willing to bet the AI is probably around here somewhere. It seems to be old Norn Incorporated technology, the remnant of some sort of secret agent project they had going on before they self-destructed for no apparent reason. I'll warn ya though, I imagine Holy and his folks are probably around here somewhere too. If it's possible to find it, I'm imagining they will do their best to do so before us.
| I'm really not a decker type, I'm the gunman. I solve things by shooting them, but shooting my computer won't make the AI pop out, so I need some outside help for this one is all. Find that AI, and I'll split profits with ya. Don't try to cross me though, I WILL come after you if you do.
| >>323330 Hey Geekboy! You quick with ciphers? I think the AGENT_AI tried to make a distress call, but I think the freaks just got it figured out!

| So I had this job a few weeks ago. Hoo boy, >this job.
Me and a couple fellas, a driver and a decker, went to go do this job for some wacko cultist type. "Holy", he kept calling himself in text. He said he'd pay 12 MILLION ZENNY for us to pick up some old Phoenix Corps tech from some old warehouse near the coast where apparently a lot of the stuff was sent to. Security was quad-max level, ICE was black, shit was hardcore. But then it dawned on me: Who's actually guarding it now?
