[hr] [center][h1][i]Deep Ground Online[/i][/h1][/center] [hr] Stark Zealot, the mysterious Ivory Mask, operative continued to scuttle around the Black City, carrying on his mission with utmost precision and efficiency, after securing a chance for Corpse Collector’s escape (so that the Outlaw could try to finish the mess she began), now the silent cyborg’s next objective was to use the Outlaw distraction to his main objective. But first, like White Sun ordered him, [i]”Be as much of a trouble as you possibly can… I don’t care what it is, just ruin their lives...”[/i] Zealot positioned himself atop another roof, aiming a shot at no one other than the indecisive form of Nies Helum, who didn’t knew what course of action to take. The bow was drawn, the energy projectile nocked, and the target set… released, set flight and… easy kill for Zealot were it not for… [center] [color=9932cc][h3][i]Eclipse Princess[/i][/h3][/color] [img] http://i.imgur.com/16bT4XC.png [/img] [/center] [color=9932cc]”Nies, watch it!”[/color] Eclipse Princess shouted as she took one glance behind of her to look at one more Outlaw Nix shot down only to notice Stark Zealot as he was about to fire at Cassandra, but as too late to avert her. The speed with which Eclipse Princess moved to intercepted the attack must probably have broken a couple of the system’s limitations, since it practically looked like she had teleported behind Nies tanking the arrow aimed at the Healer with her left hand, suffering some damage more out of the nature of the action than from Zealot’s attack. The only thing she could do for Nix was pat him in the back, in a symbolic baton pass, [i][color=9932cc]”It’s on you now. You’ve earned it.”[/color][/i] Eclipse Princess’ gaze seemed to say to the masked rogue who suddenly earned a lot of her respect, despite being a technical foe. Yet, Eclipse Princess took the energy projectile off her hand with her teeth, snarling at Nies Helum, but not daring to take her eyes off Ztark Zealot, who was beginning to retreat even now. [color=9932cc]”Go help your friend, staying in the open like this will only turn you into a target for someone else.”[/color] Eclipse Princess said before she run after Zealot, quickly climbing the side of the building with powerful kicks. Since she needed to pass the message in a way that Cassandra would get, Eris turned on her back just as she reached the roof and yelled between bared teeth that looked much like the fangs of a wild animal, [color=9932cc]”Don’t try to follow me. I’ll kill this one on my own!”[/color] As she said so, Eclipse Princess set on the pursuit if Stark Zealot, all the time the Ivory Mask soldier remained calm, almost to an unnatural degree, making sure that his main target of this mission, Eclipse Princess herself, wouldn’t lose the sight of him… [i][color=9932cc]”Tsc! Do you think I’m an idiot? I can see it’s a trap, you are leading me to,”[/color][/i] Princess thought to herself, as Zealot got to the place he was apparently trying to lead Eclipse to this whole time, the ruins of an abandoned mall, deep on the Neutral territory between the lands of the guilds. Now… this was starting to get interesting, Eclipse Princess smile was all the words she needed to communicate her intention of not backing down, still, the Black Swordswoman yelled as she shot down through the glass panels of the mall’s roof. [color=9932cc]”Unless it’s your King waiting me in person, I don’t think your ploy will be successful! Come out, White Rats, it’s time to die!”[/color] [center] [url= https://youtu.be/UbQIgJagZZ4][b]BGM[/b][/url] [/center] Just as Eclipse Princess landed in the dark mall, she sent out one last reply for Arms Slave before setting her status as busy, so that the damn piece of scum would stop bothering her with his hormonal induced problems… The classic need for men to declare themselves as the ‘alpha’ of everywhere they stepped.
