...and the mithril solution works?

Yes, perfectly.

Good. Then let's put it into action. Our spies have located a processing plant for the fruit. I'm sending you to infiltrate it and use the mithril solution to turn the fruit there back to the normal fattening kind. It should only take a few batches before word gets around that the diet products don't work any more.

Wait, you want me to infiltrate the plant? Me, personally?

Yes. Did you get the spy suit I sent?

Yes, but-

It's one of the new ones with persuadomatic technology. Since you promised us it would work, you should have no qualms about testing it out in the field.

I guess... but I really don't have time to be infiltrating bases!

Make time. Long out.

Later...

Are you sure these are the right barrels?

Yeah, we had a guy scope out their supply lines and this is how they transport water.

The wood just seems a bit... out of place.

What do you think they should be made of? Bricks? Do you realise how heavy that would be?

Uh...

Anyway, let's go over the plan one more time. You two will hide in these barrels with the mithril solution, while I pretend to be an Octan driver whose truck got stolen. When the next truck comes along we'll hitch a lift right into the plant. I'm wearing a wire so you'll be able to hear what I'm saying. Once we're in, and the coast is clear, I'll say the first code word, which is 'Octan'. That means you should pass the mithril solution out to me. Then...

We burst out and blow the place up!

YEAH!

What?? No! Then you stay in the barrels until I finish sabotaging the fruit and drive us out of there. You'll only need to come out shooting if something goes wrong and I say the second code word, which is 'Kawashita.' Got it?

Yeah... I guess...

Good. Quick, I hear something coming, get in the barrels.

Y'know, this seems like a waste of our skills.

A waste of your skills? Try being a highly trained scientist on a spying mission! Now shut up!

Hello down there. Need a hand?

I sure do, fellow employee! Don't suppose you could give me and this water a lift to the plant?

No problemo, I'm headed there anyway, and I've got room for two more barrels. What an amazing coincidence!

Uh, yeah... amazing!

So they ambushed you and made off with your truck, eh? I knew this would happen when corporate decided to let M.A.N.T.I.S. operate on this planet. I said at the time it was crazy! Still, I hear we have a new CEO, so maybe we'll finally get some sensible leadership.

Managed to squeeze in there, fella?

Just about...

Alright, let's get this show on the road!

To be continued!

Thanks for reading I really hate taking photos at night, but they'll have to do since I'm busy all weekend. C&C welcome, especially on the truck. A bunch more pics of it in the spoiler.

If there is one thing I can guarantee, it is sensible leadership out of our new CEO!

I like the story and the road/roadside is great. The truck shape is good, but the tires feel slapped on. I know there are some limits because you needed to be able to load the barrels, but they just don't seem integrated into the design. Overall another strong build and story.

Fun build. I can't wait to see more of big Sal spy adventures.

[Kai NRG]

Really like the Octan colored road! The wacky landscape is really neat too!
