There was only one thing she could do. A big risk— but what part of this run wasn’t a risk? She still had one utility left—a rating-eleven attack program. Maybe beefy enough to crash the golems, maybe not. But even pulling it out was a terrifying risk. It was experimental code, Mary had told her, nowhere near as "plug-and-play" as the other programs Sly had used up till now. Not only did it need almost all her deck’s resources—so much so that she’d have to abort everything she was already running to give the program what it needed—but she’d have to do some on-the-fly programming to tailor the code to its target and "lock it on." Which meant she wouldn’t even have the option of maneuvering, of dodging the golems’ blows; she’d just have to hang tough and take it.
