Eric jumps to a new tree. Armin and Darren follow, taking a moment to regain their balance, then hurry after Eric.
That tree fell over.
Eric jumps to a new tree again. Armin follows, while Darren grabs onto the branch of the new tree and pulls himself up.
That tree also fell over,“Why persist? Your actions, while notable, are ultimately futile.”
Eric jumps to a new tree, as does Armin. Darren falls with the tree, and runs to catch up with Eric and Armin.
“Nothing, still nothing…” says Scorpio still searching
The trees continued to fall down,“You can’t win. Heck, you might as well be fighting the wind.”
Eric continues to jump from tree to tree, Armin following. Darren runs after them on the ground.
Hitora hit him over the head with a stick he found.
“Stupidity can be displayed as trying the same action over and over again, getting the same result, and expecting a different outcome.”
The trees continued to fall.
The wolfen was knocked out cold.
“Do you see anything?” Asks Scorpio
“Not yet” replied Tribabot
Eric ignores the voice, and continues south, with Armin and Darren following.
The group fall into another tube, sucking them back to the group.
IC: I guess you can keep trying to get to the other side, the AI is just trying to demoralize you.
Eric and Armin dodges it, as they were still hopping from tree to tree. However Darren was sucked into the tube.
“Same trick as before.”
A mechanical arm grabbed Armin.
Armin shot it with his rifle, and tried to squirm out of it’s grasp. Eric continued.
Hitora brought over Tangi, who he’d told the plan. Keya frowned, but understood her skillset would be needed.
Tangi opened up the panel to the mechanics, with guidance from Keya, and disabled any microphones and video/audio cameras that might be in him as a feed to the leader. She then started to try to program in a keyword to make him attack other Wolvens. And she contemplated putting in a line of code so it’s respond to ‘Woofykinz’ as a name, but decided against it, chuckling. She tried to then erase the memory of this reprogramming, and him getting knocked out.
“Well, let’s hope it works.” Tangi said, getting ready to finish up.
“Booting up.”
Armin wriggles free of the bullet ridden arm and runs along the branches to catch up with Eric.
More arms appear.
