บท 223: Unsex Work
"This is it." the butler nods at the door on the thirtieth floor of the Crystal Tower, presumably leading into the private room of Jimmy Harvey. Ori had memorised the security as they walked, but even then he was worried about actually making it to the basement.
The interior of the Tower wasn't as fortified as the exterior, but there were enough Lazarus soldiers to give him pause. Thankfully, since many of the valued guests had more, morally repugnant 'hobbies', their private apartments wouldn't be as scrutinized.
Robotically, Ori enters the apartment, inwardly grimacing at the smell of aphrodisiac incense filling the place. Jimmy either had a problem getting it up or perpetually being horny was his kink... The room itself was covered in red and bland beige colours, from the carpets lining the floor to the curtains covering the windows, to the walls and furniture.
"Heh, finally, I've been waiting so long for some company." a bloated man breathily remarks as he steps through what could only be the bedroom doors.
Ori stands there silently, scanning the place for any cameras... None to be seen, nor any he could detect via other methods.
"Come with me, let's put you to use and my money's worth." Jimmy smirks, licking his lips as Ori stiffly follows.
Another check confirms the lack of surveillance here too, other than the single camera hidden inside a lamp in the corner. Ori could tell it wasn't connected to anything however, merely meant for Jimmy to record his 'flings'.
"Now, why don't we get better acquainted...? Take my clothes off." Jimmy commands, and Ori walks over.
Before the man can even realise what's happening however, Ori's hands slide from his collar to his neck. "How about a massage first?" Ori whispers, stabbing his Injector into the man's neck before twisting his head completely around, forcing him to stare at the wall behind him...
[Brain destroyed, disabled software signals.: Flesh Administrator] the nanites report, allowing Ori to let out a sigh of relief.
In the heart of the tower the last thing he needed was a Trauma Team called, or whatever other life support systems the guy had. He feels a small module open up on the underside of his wrist, a Cybernetic keycard that allowed access to most places.
Ori allows the nanites to devour the rest of the corpse, taking a mental note of the Cyberware he had which was all designed around multi-system management, stock observation and prediction, and... Lots of sexual augmentation...
With the guy's corpse turned to sludge, he wipes up what's left with the bed cover before shoving that under the bed itself. There was one last person he needed to deal with before he could continue however, the butler.
Fortunately, the fat lout had a call switch beside his bed. He presses it, then places his back against the wall next to the door. Five minutes later, it opens and the butler warily steps in. "I received your call sir, I thought you would be busy with your..." he pauses at Jimmy's absence, not noticing Ori's Injector punching straight through his temple, killing him instantly.
------------------
Ori adjusts the collar of the butler uniform, it was rather tight but after tearing the sleeves off he'd managed to fit into it. The nanites had eaten through the paint covering his arms and the other makeup he'd been forced to wear, allowing some amount of dignity.
With both men's permissions stolen, he makes his way to the elevator and casually attempts to access the basement. The first floor of which was apparently available, but the second was locked off to those with higher permissions.
[Lucy, you there?] he questions over the comms, hoping the encryption was enough to stop anyone from detecting them too quickly.
[Here.] - Lucy
[I'm headed to the basement, we might lose connection so keep an eye on me through the building if you can?] - Ori
[I'm trying, but if I do anything overt I'll be run out of the systems.] - Lucy
Ori nods to himself, glancing up at the camera in the top corner of the elevator before pushing his Interface port into the elevator plug-in. A moment later, the camera opens and closes its shutters, as if winking at him.
The doors open, revealing a sort of maintenance area. Staff were quickly milling about attending to their duties, most simply preparing food while robots did the more menial tasks like washing clothes or cleaning the place.
Broad-shouldered Lazarus soldiers could be seen standing at the entrance to the stairs leading further into the basement... Damn, how was he gonna get past them? There were hundreds of people around, even if he was able to kill them both instantly his cover would be blown.
*WhhhhhzhhcHKK!CHKK!CHKKK!*
Everyone's attention is drawn to one of the industrial washing machines as it begins cycling out of control, the internal mechanism unlatching and allowing it to rage free. It hops on the floor a couples times before falling forwards, directly onto a young woman's legs.
"AAHHH! S-SOMEONE HELP! IT'S CRUSHING ME!" she screams as it continues to shake, pulling more of her under the multi-ton machine.
Many staff run over to assist, but realising they weren't strong enough to do anything, they cry out for the Lazarus soldiers to assist... After some moments of reluctance, both run over and start lifting it. Allowing Ori to slip into the stairs unseen.
He nods at the camera, knowing Lucy had a heavy hand in solving that problem. The only issue now was the fact he didn't have permission to be down here...
Shaking his head, he vomits up the charges he'd been given and begins strategically placing them on areas that'd collapse the stairs and the elevator. After that, he cautiously climbs down the stairs until he reaches the second to last level where the bathrooms connected to the sewers were located. He was pretty sure the vault was on the last floor, but he needed some things before he could make his move.

บท 224: Higheist
"MmmMMPH!?"
*SQUELCH!*
Ori releases the Lazarus soldier's head and allows it to drop to the floor next to the porcelain shards of the shattered toilet bowl. "Should've stayed home." he dryly remarks as the corpse rapidly disintegrates under the nanite's gentle care.
With that, he swaps clothes and takes the guy's equipment and shotgun, a modified Militech crusher equipped with explosive rounds for that extra punch. Something Ori hopefully wouldn't be needing anytime soon.
After making sure the stall with the shattered toilet was locked and secured, he shuts the visor on his freshly cleaned helmet and makes his way out, down to the next floor.
The last floor was dark as if the owners of the building hadn't thought it was worth illuminating it. Indeed, there were fewer guards than he'd expected too, most of them seemingly placed on the upper floors, protecting the clients and building instead of the vault.
It was essentially a large hallway with reinforced metallic walls and roof. The only doors really visible are ones either meant for maintenance or for storage. He marches through, casually nodding at the few Lazarus soldiers patrolling around.
Ten minutes later, he finally discovers the vault. A large door made of obscure metal ten feet tall and wide, visible electrical traps were active and ready to stun anyone who got too close. Four Lazarus soldiers stood around, along with four auto turrets and four cameras that occasionally scanned the area.
Lucy probably couldn't gain access to the systems down here without brute forcing it, which meant he was on his own...
Fuck it, might as well get this over with.
He strides over as the guards stand to attention, ready to act if anything seemed suspicious. "Yo, got sent to inspect the vault after that shit show the other day." he casually greets.
One man, the captain, tilts his head, "Another one? There was already an audit..." he squints at the badge on Ori's uniform, "Private, I think you might be under a misapprehension." the guys behind him tense up, "Even if there was another, I doubt they'd send a bottom of the barrel shitter to get it done. Now, you gonna give up what you're plannin' or do we have to do it the hard way?"
"A spy?" one of the soldier's questions, raising his gun to aim at Ori, the auto-turrets doing the same.
"Heh, if this is a spy then I'll eat my left nut. No spy worth his salt would forget to do his fuckin' research. I mean really, a private!? Gimme a fuckin' break!"
Ori frowns, "You seem awfully casual about all of this."
The captain shrugs, "And why wouldn't I be? You handed yourself to us on a silver platter." he goes to reach for his radio but time slows down for both him and Ori, their Cyberware kicking into gear.
Ori had tried to club the man over the head with his shotgun, only for him to respond by leaning to the side and sending a punch into Ori's chest, causing him to slide backwards a meter or two.
Time resumes and the captain cracks his knuckles, "Now that was stupid. Look like we gotta live one boys!"
Scowling, Ori makes his move, raising his shotgun and firing at the man. He ducks out of the way but the explosive shell hits the soldier behind him, turning his upper half into red mist as it detonates.
The other soldier opens fire and Ori blocks it with his Cybernetic arm, whipping his Monowire at the fourth soldier, who tries to avoid it but ends up getting both of his legs hacked off.
The captain leaps forwards and grabs Ori but the face, trying to slam the back of his head into the nearby wall but Ori pulls the guy with him, all while swinging his still-extended Monowire at the other grunt who'd shot at him moments before.
*Crack!*
"The signal's already been sent, you're fucked now!" the captain spits, sending a bone-breaking punch into Ori's chest which throws him against the opposite wall and allows the auto turrets to finally start firing.
Ori bursts away as the turrets tear apart the position he was just standing, sending a brutal flying knee directly into the face of the captain, pinching it between his knee and the wall crushing his skull completely.
Some quick swipes from his Monowire later and the auto turrets are down. Letting out a tired breath, he mentally commands the nanites to "Do it."
*BOOM!*
Explosions shake the foundations of the building and Ori quickly makes his way to the vault and stabs his Injector into the control panel to let the nanites start deconstructing it. While it wasn't a foolproof solution, for most things it'd act as a skeleton key. What lock, mechanical or electronic, could withstand being deconstructed from the inside?
...
*BOOOM!*
Looks like the cavalry has arrived. He glances over his shoulder at the Lazarus soldiers running at him, no, fleeing in his direction. They both abruptly fall though, their bodies turn into mincemeat as they hit the ground. David slides to a stop nearby, shaking the viscera off of his blade.

*Shudder...*
"Hey... You guys feel somethin'?" Rebecca wonders aloud.
"Yeah, that's the signal, get your ass moving!" Maine states, taking the front as the crew starts running down the tunnel towards where Lazarus was reconstructing the pipe systems of the Crystal Tower.
Maine's hand folds away revealing his arm cannon as he aims it at the nearest bipedal robot which was being used to hold up a large sheet of metal. "Pilar!"
"On it boss!" the techie acknowledges, bringing out a sling filled with various grenades and launching them. "Blink!"
*BANG!*
Multiple disorientating flashes ring out at the same time as the EMPs, which detonate under most of the robots and disable them momentarily.
"Go on kid, show us how it's done." Falco urges David forward just as Rebecca shouts and charges in like a maniac.
