Chapter 27: The Odinsons
Aldrich and Valera ood walk away fro up its own isolated territory As he walked, he had the Evileye scout everything it could
Their shop was a large, mobile trailer home that looked soular in shape, though sizable enough that it could reliably fit in twenty people to live rather co er ones for sure, indicating that the Odinsons ranked quite highly a nomads in terms of wealth and power
The ho through the harsh environment of the Wastelands where sand stornetic storms, and basically any storm one could think of blasted the land
There were blinking green generators at the top of the home that likely projected force fields while auto-turrets rotated around, pointing directly at Aldrich and Valera as they approached Two large cannon barrels were fitted into the front of the ho white lines streaked on the cannons indicated they were energy weapons
Twelve large power bikes were parked to the sides of the trailer hoe their electric engines Once, gas and petroleum were used pretty often in the world, but that had phased out co climate temperatures and ies to the forefront
The holed black Durasteel like the scales on an arh since the home was anchored and open for business, the arht Odinson h likely, there were just as s considered He could get a general sense of power froed froenerally did not have a like this out here Hence the reliance on cybernetics and conventional firearms
The only exception anted villains, but as far as Aldrich could tell, these guys were just low-level gangsters
Then again, level ratings seeth and destructive capability So or unique powers that made them more difficult to deal with
Aldrich was still careful He still took the ti, if things went bad, terribly bad, he would leave no survivors

Aldrich and Valera walked up to the Odinsons base Odinson members stood up from tables and tarps where they enjoyed the shade to talk or play cards or inspect tech and put their hands to their hips, thu Bolter pistols
All of the Odinsons notably had an artificial blue left eye - a signaturethis were tattoos that evoked the ie of old Norse runes
"What do you want, Mr Mask?" An Odinson, a big guy, probably easily six foot two (~188ch blonde beard with a mechanical hand and smiled at Valera "Or are you here to sell her? Cause' if you are, I'd buy in a dah her up too much, either Gotta make sure you can keep her fresh to put food on your table, right?"
A nerve became visible on Valera's forehead, and Aldrich immediately raised a hand in front of her as he sensed a lethal punch co
"No, I'm no pimp," said Aldrich "I'm here to buy tech"
"Yeah?" said the Odinson He looked disappointed before he waved others of his gang onward "Boys, get thesticks in front of Aldrich and Valera
"Nothing on em but the clothes on their back," said one of the Odinsons took out two scanners that fit over their eye like a shade The scanners were red in color and projected a sht that washed over Aldrich and Valera
"AC count…zero?" said the Odinsons in confusion
"Zero? The fuck? Scan the commenced
"Yeah, it's zero No doubt about it"
"You two are Duds? While I'll be damned," said the bearded Odinson with the ht your kind was extinct or souess you all won't pose any threat"
The Odinson turned around and talked into a radio transmitter in his hand "Two clients, boss Lookin' for tech No weapons Both Duds Pretty sure they ain't cops or undercover heroes You can see eh the cameras, too"
He put his hand to his ear and heard comain "Got it"
