Portalis glances at Jhuni, raising an eyebrow. "Explode? Well that would be inconvenient."
Cast Lesser Domination on the Shield Mati and have it jump into the giant's maw.
Portalis tries to take control of the shield mati's mind with his spell. Unfortunately the creature's mind was too difficult to control. It's as if someone else is also controlling it. However, Portalis still manages to immobilize the creature from moving from it's current spot.
(By thought to Phobic and Jhuni)<Shit. If we kill them both, he will release it. Please, remind the others.>
Mathel casts liquify on Face Torso, then starts running around the beacons.
Mathel does so and made face torso stuck on the ground. Both of them are currently held in place for the time being.
Phobic maintains/reconjures a Fear Animus of Zic from Face Torso, and instructs it to command the Shield Mati to stop fighting!
Phobic conjures another Zic's projection from face torso's mind. Phobic intended to use it to command shield mati. However, Face torso went berserk once more from the illusion. Face torso smashed zic's projection into the ground. It hurt itself in confusion and causing another debris to hit anyone nearby.
Face Torso: [-6HP]
Shield Mati: [-1HP]
Blue rat: [-1HP]Ow.
"Blue, push that shield back with a flood into the giant! Tackle it"!
Levitate self up for vantage, prep sniper to fire at the shield-thing. Timing: when it gets above the maw of the giant. Use recoil to get back.
Thanks to portalis, attacking the Shield Mati is easier now. The blue rat tries to use water geyser and tackle to push shield mati inside the giant's mouth. While doing so, Arte aim from above and fired her plasma rifle to eliminate shield mati while it's inside the giant's mouth. This plan would have worked if the blue rat was strong enough to push shield mati inside the giant's mouth. The shield mati is still barely outside of the giant's mouth.
SMati: [-7HP]Ben steps away, into the zap beacon area and fires his gun at the giant.
His strange weapon cuts into the floor around him. With chop after chop he swiftly works to cut a chunk of the ground below him - something suitable to throw into the creature's mouth.
"Well this isn't the best situation to be in, we kill em they explode and release the giant thing, we don't they kill us, guess we have to find some other way to do this."
Dr. Goldstine starts throwing yet more rocks into the giants mouth.
After being attacked previously, it detects other projectile that coming towards it's direction as a sign of hostility. Shield Mati uses it's last remaining energy in rage. The shield mati created a pull force greater than before. It's as if gravity was pointing towards it. Shield mati cast [Greater Pull] and use itself as the epicenter. Everyone is getting caught by it while Gax alone was pushed so hard, he's almost sent into the elevator where he came from. The objects thrown by everyone failed to reach it's destination and instead all of them hit the shield mati in the process, causing it to take more damage along the way.
Shield Mati: [-10HP]Meanwhile, everyone else was brought to where the shield mati is. Because of the water, the zap beacon reacted to it and zap everyone in the area and damage them in the process.
Arte: [-2HP]
Phobic: [-2HP]
Jhuni: [-2HP]
Mathel: [-2HP]
Ben: [-2HP]
Portalis: [-2HP]
Goldstein: [-2HP]
Blue rat: [-2HP]
Face Torso: [-2HP]
Shield Mati: [-2HP]
The zap killed Face torso after electrocuting it until it's flesh and bone fried. Arte's blue rat seem to be unconscious. Meanwhile the other creature seem to be doing something completely different as a bright light starts emanating from it's body and growing brighter by the seconds. The air around is pulling towards it. The creature also began to create a sound that is growing louder progressively.
