The opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. The opposite of art is
not ugliness, it’s indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it’s
indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it’s indifference.

As a last resort, having a futuristic mass-murder pistol isn’t a bad choice.

  1. Wolfpax says:

    Why….why are none of them firing?

    • Ro'Wan says:

      They’re trying, it’s just that Genocide Men are eyeblink fast. My thing is, will the deviations be able to withstand the neurotoxin better than the baseline humans?

  2. Note:When attacking Genocide person, be sure to have a Plan B.
    Or, at least have something to shoot from behind.
    Or (third strike and you’re out) at least fill up with Red Bull before you set out on your suicide mission.

    • Unmaker says:

      Plan ‘A’ for fully-modded genocide agents should be overkill firebomb the entire area. Even the retribution viruses wouldn’t survive a good fire storm. Sending in troops is asking for dead troops; the only reason to send them in is to pin the location down before fire bombing the area. Too bad Msaka isn’t doing that.

      • Pat Scaramuzza says:

        That was the plan in Chapter 9, remember. Verify the location with some (disposable) troops, then begin carpet bombing.

  3. Rufus Shinra says:

    At which point I wonder if anyone in this army has heard the concept of “ballistic shield”.

  4. CapnCoconuts says:

    So she can still shoot like a Genocide Man… still, given the state of her bones, she might not be able to get around much.

  5. Brian says:

    The question is, why are none of them firing from behind cover? Why are they actually rushing in, as if to capture her? Jacob was right, this was the time to talk, when Lola was effectively disabled. When only 1 out of 5 troops have a weapon, rushing an armed and exceptionally deadly opponent isn’t a good idea.
