Sector 8: Fracture
Second Part
Useful trait of the Hyper Pulse! It can knock doors down, if you have the strength.
I PUT ON MY ROBE AND WIZARD BANDANA
UNLIMITED DEVASTATOR WORKS
Current priority is maxing out my Cracking skill. It will get me some sweet-ass toys.
Clearly the most lethal game ever created, the rules are really quite simple. First, find or plant large minefield, and gather every participant in its center. Then it is time to choose who will be the "seeker" and who will be the "judge". This is usually decided with a large fight, of which the two participants with the least bruises and wounds win.
When the seeker and judge have been chosen, they remain in the middle of the field, and the seeker closes his eyes. Then, the other players start running randomly around the field, and whenever someone steps on a mine, the seeker must point in the direction in which it happened, and guess the distance to the explosion. If he succeeds, with a pre-determined margin of error, the judge gives him one point.
This continues until ten shortcycles have passed, at which point any player who is still alive counts against the Seeker's points. If the seeker has a positive score, he wins, and can expect a thorough and utter beating by the survivors, who are most probably not very pleased with not having become the "seeker" at the start of the game.

Those poor bastards.
The invention of the Forced Electron Stream system notably increased the Annihilators' combat efficiency. Put simply, it allows them to electrocute an enemy at will, causing their personal nanofield to self-combust. With an effectiveness degree of 99.85%, the opponent is completely obliterated.
The only drawback is that the Annihilator must be in physical contact with its enemy, but given their size and strength, it is usually not a problem. It is a problem for certain Assassins that possess this ability, however, as they are too weak to hold their opponent still for long enough. Still, having been proven to blow even Tasen Elites into dust ina n instant, teh Annihilators have given this extremely powerful ability its own nickname; calling it to "Destroy" their enemies.
Of course, certain individuals with particularly strong personal Nanofields may be resistant to this attack, but the Annihilators usually manange to deal with them with their regular Nanoweaponry. The nature of the system even allows for fatal electrocution of those not using Nanotechnology.
Yeah, while I was reading it killed them all.
Time to sneak past a bitch!
With ELECTRONIC MASTERY, whenever you fail to crack something, no adverse effects occur (enemies don't notice you, security crates don't break/explode on higher difficulty levels). Blue nodes no longer flicker and cracking time is increased.
Hey, it's Dan!
IJI
DAN! I -
DAN
Hhh! Behind you, the Trapm -
IJI
...
You!
ASHA
So you hoped to take on the Imperial Army, huh? Much less the most skilled Assassin in existence. You have no idea what you're doing, girl - I don't care how many men we lose, or how many Phantom Hammers you bring down - I've been looking for this little guy! See, I told you that you had a weak point, but no one believed there were two humans cooperating here. I planted logbooks all over the place about your friend here, hoping you'd run into them and give the "traitor" what he deserved, but it looks like it didn't work! Killing this pest will show them I was right - and why not get the bonuty on your head while I'm at it?
IJI
NO!
ASHA
So be it!

No, no, I'm fine. yeah, I won't mention it again. Sorry.
IJI
Uh, so, Sector X, right? That's where the General is. Won't be easy getting there, but - you know. You've made me stronger than they'd ever expected. Heh.
IJI
No, I know. Don't look at me like that.
IJI
Okay, no time to lose. Stay close, I'm gonna blast us a way to Sector X.
IJI
I'll be fine. I'm the one the world is counting on...
I can't be weak now.
