(DE) Mankind Divided: Prophet

[Part of the Wasted Land story]      

A gas bomb trap is what I find in the watch maker's apartment, but I also deduce she's joined some sort of machine cult in a tenement nearby. These nerds and their security cams are simple enough to sneak past them only to learn this woman also happens to be some high prophet and is about to "ascend" the cult members by putting their consciousness together like a new C-Consciousness and abandoning their physical bodies. 

She discloses that she made many bombs for her brother Marchenko right before stabbing me with the same poison that killed the ARC leader. Lucky I called for backup as the local cops arrest everyone and Chang manages to test out his synthesized poison cure which saves my life. 

There is evidence that Marchenko is paying the local Dvali crime gang for smuggling services so I visit them next in their domain of the red light district. These scum trade in everything including drugs and women so while I knock out the exterior guards once I sneak into their theater base of operations I hack their patrolling guard robots to join my side and then assist my new robotic friends in killing all the gang members within, including the bosses downstairs who get some surprise grenades for dinner.
