Suddenly Marie would turn to her left to see another angry harpy flying towards her in a ball of fiery feathers. Looks like Marceoy's mate isn't too happy about having the bounty hunter kill her lover. Unfortunately for her, there was nothing she could do as she was forced to take the hit. Fortunately, the charge was fast enough to have Utada's bullets miss their target before having to deal with the nearby Atarah. Marie would be pushed back with the flames crackled through the air as they meteor into the forest, crashing into small trees and bush the deeper they go. Already a large tree was dead in their sights and Marie would be crushed if they reach it there in time. With breakneck speed, the Scarlet Hunter wastes no time then to whip out another gadget, her taser. With a quick knee to the breast, Marie then zaps Eve with the taser for a few burst seconds before being able to escape the hug of death. The harpy would presumably continue flying towards the large tree as Marie lands with her rocket heels.
As the harpy would began regaining her steps from the crash, or coming around after narrowly making an aggressive U-turn, the bounty hunter prepares her next attack by whipping out a netgun. She quickly fires at Eve a net that if connected with Eve, the harpy would not only be entangled but her strength being slowly seeping away the longer she struggles in it. The nullifying nets are an extremely deadly capturing tool if used to their maximum effectiveness. This is going to be a close one.
Ghelgath's troops were doing OK, but still does it seem like they are out matched. The Ice Serpents from above continue to bombard them with streaks of frozen ice beams, but even then they may eventually fall. Without Apia's support, this may begin to fall apart soon enough...
It was then the Lich hears a thunderous war cry from behind him. But before he can turn to address if it was the Bee Queen coming back, the armored Thaumaturge leaped towards him, just when Ghelgath recognizes Apia charging at him yet missing her mark. Well... at least she came back. As six laser rifles began firing upon Ghelgath's Golem, including the sudden appearance of Farris blasting her holy energy, Saef slides on the frozen ice to bisect the giant golem. Realizing his vessel has been lost, Ghelgath quickly shatters his connection with the giant ice sculpture and he leaps from the giant as it begins crumbling to the ground. The blast from Farris did weaken his troops that were still on the field, yet the Lich is far from finished.
He leaps towards the still firing soldiers and crashes into them with his battle axe in his hand. The shockwave should be able to knock them off their feet to stun them, giving him enough time to decapitate them all in one swift strike. Realizing the situation he's in, Ghelgath snaps his fingers with haste as a wall of incoming ice, snow, and wind begin to engulf the catacombs. Visibility will be reduced and chaos would perhaps ensue as the confused soldiers try to figure out where they are.
"Let's put yall bitches on ice..." the lich punned devilishly as he hides behind the thick cold fog.
He then takes a quick breather before exhaling all the air in his lungs to unleash his Blizzard Breath. The frozen particles would silently replace the thick cold winds as they eventually reach towards the soldiers, quickly freezing them upon contact with them. Some may survive, will some will be frozen solid. The stakes in this battle just got higher as Ghelgath prepares to make more troops to serve him.
At first, it may seem as if Flos would be able to find his way out of the castle. It seemed as if no one there would be able to stop him as he finally will breath his first fresh air of freedom. But all this would seem to good to be true. As he attempts to slice through the doors, his blade would be hit by an invisible solid object just meters from the door. An audible clang indicates that the object was metal in form, showing a flash of visible black and red armor as it suddenly pushes back the angelic general back a few good meters. Shortly after the invisible object can be seen in its entirely. The Phantom Horseman stood guarding the entrance out the door, its shield armed in one hand and the gunlance primed in the other.
"You performed quite the show, Flos." Mephilius compliments him from within the suit as he grins devilishly, "I gotta admit you actually entertained me a bit... Enough to make me desire an encore. Let's see how long you can last before you finally bore me into mutilating your wretched holy corpse."
With that he gets into battle position, blocking his body with his mighty shield, and fires his lance at Flos' direction with several explosive shots.
