The axe head of the Executioner began to glow with a ominous black and green hybrid mix of colors.
These unholy energies flowed and swirled in a unified circle all over the axe head. "You think you're smart huh? Because you took out my eye? Let me show you how the adults fight."
The black and green hybrid energy began to spread all over the Executioner's body, manifesting like an unholy empowered armor.
Ot teemed unnaturally and chaotically, stitching itself rapidly together to imitate leather. It crackled with dark magic every second as it cobbled itself together, the man's eye now replaced with a dark green glowing one.
He then rushed towards Richie with axe in hand, preparing a heavy horizontal swing to attempt upon him. Richie immediately knew to duck, quickly crouching.
The axe swing carried a heavy weight to it, Richie could feel the air around him getting forced forward from it. He attempted a quick counter attack, throwing a quick punch at the man's liver using his brass knuckles.
The punch collided with the Executioner's chest, but failed to inflict any damage. A notification window appeared to Richie.
"Your item is being corroded by an unholy energy!" The knuckle that hit the man's chest then began to dent from the impact, the black and greenish energy wearing away at it. "Is that all you've got?"
The Executioner raised his hand to grab Richie, Grabbing his chest tightly and throwing him against the wall.
Richie cried out as he loudly slammed into it, feeling the impact vibrate through his body. He began to quickly check his health. It was 38/70. Not a good look.
"Damn. I guess I'll have to use this..."
The Executioner brandished his axe to strike down upon Richie, moving up to him ominously. However Richie was not moving at all, it looked as if he had surrendered and chosen to die. "Lin Hao, we have to do something!" Fu Mei tugged at Lin Hao's arm desperately. "He's going to die!"
But Lin Hao only watched what was going to unfold, noticing a sudden golden glow in Richie's hand. "No. I don't think so."
The Executioner now ominously stood over Richie's body, holding his axe to attempt to cleave his body in two.
"You got any last words, before I go off and kill your friends next? What a chump." This was the Executioner's favorite part of his job, cleaving people right in two.
However, Richie simply laughed at him.
"The only chump I see here...Is you!"
[Skill Activated!]
A sudden pressure plate triggered from underneath the Executioner, causing him to become confused.
When a very dense Golden Rod sprang up from the ground, launching itself upward at the Executioner.
But where could it hit him, from such an angle?
The Golden Rod violently lodged banged itself against two very special things between the Executioner's legs at full force.
Not only damaging him, but also inflicting a critical hit upon his body. The sound of two eggs cracking could be heard by everyone in the prison, causing even a few of the prisoners to laugh at this turn of events.
The Executioner cried loudly from the blow, stunned from how it had struck him. The magical armor enveloping his body neglected to protect that area of all things.
Fu Mei meanwhile was bristling with anger. Her temper began to flare up, triggering one of her passive skills.
[Temper]
[Description]
"Your anger is a powerful modifier. Upon entering a state of anger, all of your skills are doubled in potency. But consume twice the amount of energy in return."
Anger welled up in her at the powerlessness she was experiencing, how she had just watched everything unfold in the previous fight.
Maybe it was her anger at this, maybe it was her anger from her ordinary life. She couldn't put a finger on what it was, but it was ready to burst at the seams.
Fu Mei readied a bolt on the crossbow she used, and prepared a new skill she had created.
[Hydrobolt]
[Rank]:0
[Description]
"You can strengthen the piercing power of the next bolt you fire, by compressing water around it to add to it's density and strength. It will fire aided by your elemental power."
The bolt was infused equally with Fu Mei's watery power, and with her anger. The potency increase caused by her [Temper] passive skill allowing a large amount of energy to pour into her next attack.
She consumed almost all of the energy in her Cubic Reservoir for this attack, but that in turn only made it more powerful.
The bolt fired seamlessly, piercing rapidly through the head of the Executioner. His head broke open like mush, blood spilling onto the wall nearby and onto Richie. But the attack did not end there.
The watery energy from the bolt flowed into the man's body, causing it to jerk and spasm like a water balloon filling up.
"Hey what the hell did you do to him-" Richie called out, suddenly interrupted by what came next.
BOOM!
A loud explosion of water burst out of the Executioner's body, causing his flesh to distort and rip apart from the water pressure exert from within. His body collapsed onto the ground, with blood everywhere from Fu Mei's attack.
"That takes care of that." Fu Mei said, with a hint of satisfaction in her voice. Richie's jaw had dropped to the ground from seeing this. Lin Hao was equally shocked.
