>>82054085https://youtu.be/Ybh9rHFlM4I?si=dcGoqLGFGT24vw10>[ BEAR!BULL!BEAR!BULL! BULL!BEAR! ]>[ The only thing missing is the lost tribal/mailman speaking in riddles. A shattering sanctuary amid a hellscape of burning and irradiated sandstorms. Very few creatures can survive the Divide. One such beast, a greater demon, hangs upside down from the iron ceiling with a long mane flowing down. ]>[ "..." The tiger was left in awe by the massive object, dormant in the center of this condemned temple. He can feel the dread emanating from the unknown construct. For now, he remains silent. Two mailmen have yet to meet, to decide the fate of the bear and bull. ]
>>82054113>Yep.
>>82055282That's not very nice.>>82055575>That...sounds like hell.
>>82055729>It be what it be. For now, all it means is that search is useless, but I've taken the time to pin all my HG folders from the thumb.>Now, where were we?>>82055708>And, where were we? Those others still handy?
>>82054085[RADIOACTIVE KAMIKAZE] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMKf6j-AFIQ>The entrance to what ONI had identified as a major ICBM launch facility opened with a slightly strained metallic whoosh, the door revealing a small party of ODSTs lead by none other than the Master Chief. The MCPO was partially familiar with this "Divide" place, having been to it with a small team of Marines several months ago. And like last time, he was here to do a bit of scouting and perhaps asset acquirement. Or denial if they couldn't hold this place and all of the scattered nuclear warheads, Gieger counters ticking ever so slightly as a Helljumper grumbled to himself with Battle Rifle in hand. (ODST #4) This looks like the place. And none of those "Marked Men" are around either. >Or Tunnelers. Or Deathclaws. (117) Stay sharp, we still need to secure this area before calling for reinforcements to hold this location. (ODST #4) 'Rah Chief, we know what we're doing. >And so they set about exploring and eventually securing the location.>>82055590>No longer alone in the Temple, the Daiyoukai would've likely spotted the incoming humans first as they meticulously entered the locale. And they sure as Hell didn't look like mailmen. Although the ODSTs kits *might* be familiar to the Japanese monster given his own prior encounter with one months ago... >>82055954>Sorry to hear about your tech woes friend. Hope you can get it sorted soon and easy! >We've still got that thing with you and I and the Apple Girlington player for one bit. And if the stars are to align tonight, we can maybe also do that Dawnbreaker meeting with you, me, Aussa, and Yabu. >Unless of course there was something else you wanted to do with me tonight.

>>82056206>>82056429"Meu Deus, porque sois infinitamente bom e Vos amo de todo o meu coração...">Here, assembled the weathered force of Ale: the Gendarmerie's most seasoned section, a fraction of its cadre having taken up unique inverted uniforms as they all stood to exchange their confessions with the clergy before a dangerous excursion, their Tenente Nílton keeping a fair distance from his command as he awaited a sign of their ferry in the docks below.>>82056114>Even if we get that yabman, dunno if I can cross the streams doing two things at once with the bote minder.
>>82056114...>[ Tora was left in awe. That nuke, he's never seen something like this before. But from a first glance, he could tell this was something destructive. Perhaps rivaling the light without a shadow...]>[ But all that changes when the metallic doors open. Catching the tiger's attention. ODSTs? He's seen one human with that armor before and had a nice chat with him. But all that changed when catching a glimpse of Joe Chief, that armor and color. Bringing back memories of another he had met. Tora can't help but smile. Finally, he's been waiting for him! ]>[ He'd wait a moment, letting Chief and co walk for more steps... Incoming! Dropping down from the ceiling, announcing his presence with a heavy impact on the metallic floors. Making sure to land a right in front of a random ODST. The sheer impact from a beast equal to a hunter in size, knocking that poor ODST right off his feet. ]Oi!Oi!Oi! I've been waiting for you! "Broomsprayer!" You owe me a rematch! You ain't gonna get lucky like last time! C'mon! I owe you an ass-whooping!>[ He might be mistaken Chief for another, it seems. ]>>82056132(The fuck is this?)

>>82056438>Fair enough, we'll get to it when we can.
>>82056460Huh, it was a simple match shape Captcha for me
>>82056543Lucky you then, I guess.
>>82056446>The sheer amount of power contained within those metallic vessels was probably enough to make his hairs stand on end if he had the senses for it. Twas the reason why the UNSC was here in the first place for one thing. >Of which they were by in large caught off guard, the Chief at least catching movement from the ceiling out of the corner of his eye and motion tracker. Still too late for one unfortunate ODST, Four swearing as he was knocked off of his feet from Tora's landing. >Naturally the SPARTAN was quick to interpose himself between the troopers and this big orange SOB with his M739, the SAW aimed center mass as they called him "Broomsprayer" and demanded a rematch from him in turn. The Master Chief nor the ODSTs of course had any idea what he was talking about, although the SPARTAN *might* have had an inkling given prior experiences... >In any case, the Chief and Helljumpers had their weapons trained on the mythical monster as the former spoke in a gruff tone. (117) I don't know who or what you are. >The Fourth ODST growled as he scrambled to his feet. (ODST #4) Yeah, why don't you try backing off and introducing yourself proper before we shoot your orange ass!
>>82056429>>82056438>Sorry, wasn't quite sure how to formulate this to get us rolling again. Brainfart, as the family used to say.>Ooh, we get the elites, huh?>Well, this is still pre-Volcano, is it not? If you want, you could skip over the ferry part of the trip via Spacebridge. >But otherwise, with all that aside, I'm sure they could get a cutter to take them...assuming they're not getting there the same way that they did before. Or am I ah, getting things jumbled up here? If so, I apologize. Especially with the islands' layout, I get confused.
>>82056725>Yes, you can tell by the fact Gendarmerie_Var11, or Trento is still on the team and not suffering the existential horror of being more virus than man.>So, first destination be the Angel's Shed? Think a Space Bridge hop is the most expedient choice to preserve unit readiness.
>>82056817>Sounds good. You can probably find a destroyer there handling things. Between them and TAI of the time (who's probably doing a lot of the heavy lifting), it shouldn't be too hard....
>>82056609>[ ODST #4, the tiger gives you a death glare. Showing off those pearly white. Rows of sharp, blade-like teeth. ] Oi! You lesser human! Stay out of this! Before I eat you! Down to the bones!>[ A quick discharge of electricity. Enveloping the tiger. Back to John Halo. ]Earning a voice and new armor made ya forget me already Broomsprayer‽ Maybe I'll beat the memories back into ya! >[ Down on all fours, snarling like starving beast.]C'mon! Where's your second voice, Broomsprayer‽ I'm getting bored!>[ Reeling back, the tiger pounces! To the ODSTs, even with Tora's size, he'll appear as an orange blur, 「Flash Stepping 」towards you, Chief! Perhaps with his augmented senses, he'll see the tiger dashing right for him. Claws ready to rip into his green armor! ]

>>82056987Oh man. I'm going to have to wait until he plays the rest of the game like this. If his play through of Half Life 1 was fever dream, this one will be wild.Thanks for the share, King
>>82056972>Four wouldn't admit it even under torture, but that threat spooked him a bit... (ODST #4) I'd like to see you try! >The Chief meanwhile kept to his guarded position and disposition, the man shaking his head at the strange beast's accusations. (117) There's nothing to forget. And you didn't answer his question. >Not that it seemed to matter much to the tiger-like creature, the monster getting into a combat position and pouncing soon after! >"Look out Chief!">A mere grunt at Cortana's internal warning. For the enhanced cyborg, the lighting fast youkai would appear to be moving at relatively normal speeds as he attempted to sidestep their attack! 0-7: The Chief successfully dodges! 8-numbers: The Chief gets slashed for a loss of his shielding! >The others meanwhile, relatively slow as they were, moved into action as they raised their various guns! >>82056987>Neat, I know what I'm watching later then! >>82057017>It's all good, glad to have you with us.
