Despite the pain of your wounds, your reactions are still lightning fast. You beat the clansman to the draw and, in a fraction of a second, you save yourself from his murderous intentions.
You are in too much pain to try to attempt a burial and, mindful of the time you have lost already, you make only a brief search of the bodies. You discover the following items:
- Pistol (containing four rounds of 9mm ammunition)
- Dagger (2)
- Rope
- Machine Pistol (containing twelve rounds of 9mm ammunition)
- Enough pain killers for one Medi-kit unit
You may also retrieve the weapon that the clansman shot out of your hands.
Wearily you return to your roadster and begin the next stage of your journey to San Angelo. Less than a mile beyond the bridge you see a deserted stretch of Highway 87. You join the freeway, heading south, and within a few minutes you catch sight of a town on the road ahead. A glance at your map confirms that you are approaching Sterling City.
