Road to Nexus City

Road to Nexus City is the third story mode stage in MADNESS: Project Nexus and the third stage in the outskirts hub. In this stage, Hank has to find a way into Nexus City, but before he can get close to the wall, he is stopped by the Sheriff.

Briefing
It's unlikely that the A.A.H.W. (Agency Against Hank Wimbleton) will pursue us into the Nexus Core's domain and risk a turf war with their biggest paramilitary supplier, so let's not make it easy for them by sticking around.

Objectives
1) Get into Nexus City.

The Stage
The stage starts off with Hank running to the gate that leads to the Industrial Sector. Sheriff notices him and recognizes that he's Hank, and stops him. The Mag Bandit appears right behind Hank. He screams that he's hungry, and then starts to charge at Hank.

Hank fights the Mag Bandit with nothing but his fists and melee weapons that Bandits drop. Occasionally, he will pick up a street lamp and attempt to hit Hank with it. Bandits come out of the sewer holes to fight Hank. After draining him of all his Corpus, Sanford and Deimos will jump over the fence to join Hank. Suddenly, the Mag Bandit gets up and charges at the gate, which breaks it. Sheriff and his goons run away, and the three enter the Industrial Sector.

Dialogue
Sheriff: You just hold right where you are, stranger.

Sheriff: W-Wait a minute... Hank? That you?!

Hank: Open the gate, Sheriff.

Sheriff: Look at this guy. Still thinkin' he calls the shots from all the way down there. Hah!

Sheriff: You the one been makin' all that racket in my power station?

Hank: Didn't I kill you once?

Sheriff: Never been so dead I couldn't claw my way back, pal. Which reminds me, I still owe you a bullet to the dome, don't I?

Hank: Let me up there. Let's find out.

Sheriff: Yeah, that's a hard "no", Hank. In here, I'm the boss. I run the show! And I say you're cut off. Comprende?

Sheriff: Besides, it looks like the "Massive Wall" you need to worry 'bout right now ain't the one I'm standing on.

Mag Bandit: I AM SO HUNGRY! COME HERE!

Second Corpus Loss

Mag Bandit: OH NO YOU DON'T, LITTLE MORSEL.

Fourth Corpus Loss

Mag Bandit: THE FOOD CANNOT FIGHT BACK! THAT IS NOT HOW THIS WORKS!

Mag Bandit Death

Mag Bandit: I FEEL...FULL...

Deimos: So what'd we miss?

Sheriff: Oh fantastic. There's MORE of you now.

Sheriff: Listen. You're not getting into my city. You hear that down there? Not happening.

Mag Bandit: I'M STILL HUNGRY!

Sheriff: Oh forget THIS. Let's hit the trail!
