Chapter 131: Mardok!
Chapter 131: Mardok!
The flaming spear thrown by Tyr penetrates Mardok. Flinging his body to the roof of the basement, they are in. Mardok groans as his flesh is burning. He can smell himself as he is cooked alive by this life-damaging spear. Thrashing about madly giving everything to separate himself from this searing pain. Mardok manages to use his pinned body as a springboard off the roof. Like a true demon who has survived the torture grounds of Madam Merill, pushing through the spear straight into a mighty torrent of water. The Stream of water comes from the Naga. Mardok can see out of the corner of his eye the naga with his mouth agape dripping water. Mardok Pulls his tattered body together his chains are broken d the crystal lies somewhere. he doesn't care he is free to kill these bugs now.
Thumping on his chest he rages forward saying, "Kruill UHll SeklU!!!!" Death is true life words he was raised on and has believed in all his lives. Mardok dodges the next six blades of water his body is free from its burden means he can move freely for the first time in god knows how long. His explosive power rattles and bends the shield of Tyr as he parries Mardok with it. The abrupt change of motion leads Mardok slightly off-balance and crashing into a long swinging hammer. The hammer catches him in the jaw, his head rattles with pain. A sharp stab from Tyr and blazing black and yellow spear. What is more painful than the pain is the pull of his blood. It flees his body attracted to the mist floating above him. He has never seen magic like that Mardok nor does he care to understand it all he wants is to bathe his flesh in their ashes. Even as his blood flows away from thickening above him he fights. Hand to hammer unleash the pit punches and fire round kicks, when he feels weak or dizzy he even punches himself in the hole to his side the pain working to keep him lucid anger and fighting.

SKY Ocean Hunter takes a body blow from the wild Mardok, the awkward root has just managed to hook SKY Ocean Hunter with one of its random extending branches. The hook twisted his body taking him off-kilter and flying towards Tyr. Tyr slides under SKY Ocean Hunter unleashing fire spells. Unlike [shots of fire], he uses his spear as a grounding device. Thus not having to construct the shape of the spell. This also makes it have a short cooldown of about a seconds. It doesn't deal a lot of damage but it does cut at Mardok. Tyr has found that he has about seven colours of fire each is slightly different but he isn't exactly sure why. If he had a real element like chaos then it would be giving him a set effect. Not even the Infinity Witch in memories had several colours of fire.
[Furnance]
Boiling blade of black fire extended out of every crack, cut, from Mardoks' bodies having passed the twenty per cent mark. He is throwing his all into making them suffer for the glory of his master. Mardok grunts past Tyrs' yellow spears. Grabbing him by the ankles before slamming him into the ground.
-110!
Mardok would have continued but he broke his wrist it literally crumbled under the strain of the black fire. He had always been told never to use it, Black fire is a purely artificial flame and thus completely incompatible with Mardok. Still, though his newly cracked forearm bone is very sharp. He slams his bone knife into Tyr.
-102!
He drags his bone knife across, Tyr screams unleashing a blast of fire around his that catches Mardok in the jaw. His skin melts from his jaw as he is blasted back instead of bleeding more black flames appear. Mardok Swirls above his head the blood mist forms into blood spikes. Mardok tries to assault Tyr again he can kill but the Spikes fall too fast in between him and Tyr. So Mardok forces as much of the black fire through the hole in his body where Tyr had pierced with that flame spear. Mardok dodges like a rocket sudden turning toward SKY Ocean Hunter.
Styx smiles as a mist he's vision isn't like normal he fell the change in temperature and predicted Mardoks move not that he could do a lot about it. He does though activate [Vale] the blood form is another escape form but vale restores his body and allows him to see the crumbling Mardok flying towards SKY Ocean Hunter. This gives him a chance to maybe help SKY Ocean hunter if he times it correctly.
Duff! A crumbling of ashes and bones arrive in front of SKY Ocean hunter the Demon is fighting with his life. Going out in a blaze of glory. SKY Ocean Hunter and Mardok explode power each their power the black fire turns to mist as it meets SKY Ocean Hunters slick body. SKY Ocean Hunter sends a [water blast] to create a little bit of space so that he can fling the water blades at Mardok. Checking he party window he still also has to heal Tyr who is dangerously low on health. Unlike what he expected the part of Mardok hit. Which is his left lower chest simply crumbles away letting him continue forward.
Mardok smiles he made using all of his remaining life, he dies!
5000! [Crictial damage]
Styx appears behind his neck his blade resting in the throat, then he twists cutting off the head of the demon. Styx had struck just after Mrdok had committed to his final attack. This made him light up in gamer terms. As all his vulnerabilities became exposed. The one that stood to Styx was at the back of Mardoks' neck more than the other this one was purple. He had never seen that before but somehow he knew that was the one place to hit.
The boys all sit back sweating smiling and shocked. The way the demon had fought was beyond anything they have experienced. While the SKY Ocean Hunter and Styx are mostly going over it again already trying to figure out what they did wrong and how they could have worked better together. Tyr smiles he didn't think that Overwatch had this function yet the dev of Odyessy described it as the hero system. In essence, she tries to make every fight feel epic and count to some greater cause. This means that Overwatch will steadily alter enemies behaviour to be more difficult to defeat. This keeps the fighting tense without them needing to add huge power levels to enemies outside of main quests. Since they all the unrestricted system it seems to him that Overwatch has added some dynamic thinking to their enemies.

The boys all escape trying not to worry about the monsters following them as they drag the crystal through the underground tunnels of Styx is running ahead scouting the path so that they don't end up at a dead end. The walls screech with the pitter-patter of demon claws. Tyr especially has to be careful not to trip off the uneven floor not that SKY Ocean Hunter seems at all affected.
SKY Ocean Hutner says, "the map location is pinging in the opposite direction dude!" The place they have to take the crystal to is a location several levels above them. Where the roots of the tree are properly located. The small demons are hot on their tails and properly outnumber one to fifty thousand making a fight nearly impossible. Tyr of course fight suggested they fight since they have a lot of AOE spells. SKY Ocean Hunter refused to not waste time and every second they spend here is less time they have to save Red Iron Island.
Styx says, "Primo, don't you know? Sometimes in order to go up. You have to go all the way down!HAHA!" Styx jumps off into one of the main water tunnels the water main using a pressure system to deliver water to higher areas. One of the displays Styx had seen Tyr read was the water tunnels and they pressured. HIis constant running around allowed him to have enough of an idea to overlap his map and the water main to find a quick way to the surface...
