I silently bounded the remaining Brigands before realizing the communication disruptor's secondary device needed targeting.
Discovering empty MULE postboxes, I returned to my Tri-Cruiser. Navigating steep mountain paths in broad daylight, I managed to get the vehicle unstuck and pushed toward the Musician's shelter.
Taking advantage of the remaining enemy positions, I took the opportunity to bind another Brigand who was resting inside a shaded structure. Estimating there were only a couple of hostiles left nearby, I kept up my clean, stealthy execution.
Spotting a guard posted near the communication disruptor, I waited for him to turn his back before sneaking up and binding him quietly with my Strand.
This guard became my next target whom I also bonded with my strand quietly without giving him a chance to fright back and this stealth clearing was going perfectly.
But that last Brigand of the territory saw me while I was going for him so I had to open fire and take him down with lethal MP rounds.
Hoping to eliminate any chance of the bound guards waking up and coming after me later, I tried firing lethal bullets into one of the immobilized hostiles. When the rounds failed to put him down, I decided not to waste any more ammo on them.
Shifting focus back to the communication disruptor, I dumped bullets into the main structure with no effect, only to realize I actually needed to shoot the secondary terminal device attached nearby to destroy the system completely.
Looking at the communication disruptor, it appeared intact despite having damaged it previously, leading me to suspect the brigands had repaired it in my absence.
Checking the local MULE postboxes for leftover cargo, I found them completely empty.
Though I recognized this territory was entirely optional for my current run, taking down the camp using an all-stealth approach was genuinely satisfying.
Returning to my Tri-Cruiser, I set off once again toward the Musician's location to hand over the mysterious recording.
Riding in broad daylight provided far better visibility of the distant city ruin, though I stayed focused on conserving my vehicle's battery power for the climb ahead.
Searching for an accessible mountain route for the Tri-Cruiser, I pushed the bike up steep, rocky inclines to avoid making the trek on foot.
After getting jammed against the rough terrain for a brief moment, I navigated the vehicle free and kept driving up toward the shelter.
