Can't Touch this. Hammer Time!
As the saying goes, if at first you don't succeed, try again. Which is what was attempted and with different strategies, but it was not cutting it with the usual methods and there were more deaths had including brutal explosions and Arghrash just getting messed up.
"Now if I can just get off some long range shots while hidden and start off on a good note, I think I should be okay this time" thought Arghrash as he lined up a mutant on the roof, taking some shots at it.
It didn't stop them from trying to blow him up or take him out, however they are able to but they were not successful this time, luckily. It was a close call with that explosion that's for sure, the roof was able to absorb and block a lot of it though.
"Come here puny little human. Taste the Hammer" could be heard as a legendary boss named Hammer came to finish the job the others had doing, this time.
He was strong and the bullets were doing lower amounts of damage and same with the burning. But the laser rifle was handy for this fight, the damage was swift and painful and the Hammer became nothing more than some fried dust.
"Score the big load from Hammer, heck yes! Looks like I will be getting this back to the boathouse an to safety as I do not want to lose it" said Arghrash as he found lots of frag grenades, stimpaks, a missile launcher and lots of missiles from Hammer's body.
Running back to the original base to get purified water and any other extras to stock up on, was the next step before continuing on the missions.. but running through Lexington near the base was not the wisest of moves.
A group of ghouls came charging after Arghrash with speed. He had to be quick with the spray of bullets while walking backwards, taking out none of them before getting hurt and having to quickly use a stimpak, while they had lunged and he had dodged them. "That's it keep coming this way you bastards" he muttered as he kept taking them out one by one, managing to avoid a death but it was getting to be a close one.
With the sun shining bright and being out of the city and back at base, the first thing was checking how much purified water was available now after so long out.
"Not too bad to have this much through the three water purifiers, though I wish I had some more but I can't complain."
It was time to go finish clearing the estates from the last few mutants in the final section of those houses, yet to be explored and checked. Upon getting back to the cleared sections, a quick looting session for what has been left previously which saw a lacking of quality items and the ammo and caps was low.
After being disappointed, Arghrash got right into the fighting by taking out a normal super mutant with ease before having more troubles against a skirmisher, one getting up nice and closer where the roof camping was not helping so much.. until after a little longer where the victory was achieved.
All that was left was some long range shooting on some mutant hounds and one mutant trying to fire back, from inside a house in the far end to where Arghrash was now.
"Pop pop bang you are dying now hounds, pop pop bang and so are you mutant" Arghrash cheerfully sang as he took them out from far, after time due to a lengthy battle. The hounds had no hope since they could not reach him on the roof of the building, the mutant could have moved up closed but decided it was enough to just chill back and shoot, which was not a good ending for it.
It was a good time to go rest at a sleeping bag and nap off some of this constant exhaustion being experienced, he decided that looting the rest of the houses, was something that could wait and Arghrash was just happy to finally have completely cleared this area now.
This was Lone Madman in the Apocalypse - Surviving the Fallout 4 Wasteland - Part twenty nine. Be sure to stay tuned to see what crazy things happen next and how Arghrash goes with surviving.
