Although I suck at melee combat, that doesn't mean I'm completely helpless—I can still perform basic "attack" actions.
Like swinging a steel pipe, for instance—a rather effective concussion delivery device.
*TING!*
The impact reverberated hard.
A loud metallic gong echoed through the tunnel, and I felt the jarring feedback buzz through my fingers. My palms tingled as both heads dropped to the ground, accompanied by the unmistakable fleshy thump of meat hitting the floor.
"Lucky!"
One solid swing. That's all it took to down both guards!
And since I struck the back of their heads with a blunt object, I didn't need to worry about them staying awake—though now I was slightly concerned if I'd killed them outright.
Cautiously, I crept closer to the two crumpled bodies.
Just to be sure, I delivered a follow-up move—swinging my foot directly between their legs. A groin check, if you will.
