Finding Purpose In The Multiverse: Meta Essence Quest Mode

The Future Of Worm Is In My Hands Now

Entry 30:

Emily Piggot POV:

Reports, reports, reports, and more reports. Why did I sign up for this job again?

*Phone Chime*

I wonder who this is. I wasn't expecting anyone to call me today.

It better not be Dragon calling about those memes again. You would think one of the best tinkers would be able to avoid that, but what can one do?

I pick up the phone and hear something that is somewhat surprising.

"Ms. Piggot, this is  Johan from the PRT branch in Boston. We have a situation here."

I groan as any situation is a bad one, and I was so looking forward to doing reports... scratch that, let's hear this.

"What is the problem, Johan? New parahuman triggers? Endbringer movements?"

"No, Ma'am, the nine are here, but something or someone got to them first. I am sending the pictures to your computer."

I see the file and open it, and my eyes widen.

The nine have been reduced to only half of what they were literally.

Crawler and Grey Boy, along with Jack Slash, are missing, but I assume whoever did this separated them and took them down one by one.

Their heads have been mounted to their van, and across the van, one phrase can be seen on the side.

" No More" - Contingency

I sit back in my seat and turn around in my chair.

I should be happy about this. Those freaks have been a headache since day one, but now we have a bigger problem.

"Who is Contingency?"

I put the phone back to my ear and ask Johan. "Have you found any evidence of tinker tech or powers used?"

"No, director, it was as if whoever killed them teleported each one to a different place but then returned them here."

I grit my teeth in frustration, as without any call signs, it's hard to rank their powers.

"Find me something, Johan, or we are all in the dark on this. I need to contact Dragon and Armsmaster Piggot out."

I put the phone down before dialing The Guild's private number, as we need all hands on deck for this.

We are going to find this Contingency, and with our new tech from Ozcorp, it should be easier.

Linus Ozias POV:

Piggot is probably running herself ragged trying to find Contingency, and if any suspicion falls on me, I have an LMD at the office working late for an alibi. (LMD- Life Model Decoy)

I genuinely am happy about the nine being gone, as this gives me a lot more time before Zion decides to end his cycle.

On that note, the orbital station and platforms are well on their way to completion as the station is nearly complete and only needs around two weeks to be ready to send more than just essential construction equipment.

I am thinking of naming it Model 001- Frontier. At the same time, the orbital platforms will be called the Pantheon, with each platform having a name based on a deity.

"Speaking of which, I think it's time to add a new member to the team," I mutter excitedly.

I head over to the lab and begin the process as the Pokemon tech tree has revealed a new Pokemon that I can create, the magnamite.
