Ren had just arrived at the city, and the flying distance for helping the south would take him almost an extra hour. Sadly, there would be no last second heroes this time.
But Sirius was no longer just an exhausted soldier throwing desperate scratches...
He was a master of darkness, temporarily fueled by the very corruption trying to kill him, and the Diamond mutant was about to experience that difference firsthand.
"Hold the line, Liu!" Sirius yelled, descending upon the beast with a flurry of claws woven from a now purplish light and deep black shadows. "Do not let it eat you from the inside! You already know how to fight this!"
Sharing the horrific burden was exactly what Liu needed. The concentrated venom threatening to shatter his sanity was effectively halved. With the internal pressure drastically reduced, Liu regained the clarity that the dark energy had been stealing from him.
The reckless maneuver also yielded a surprisingly lethal side effect...
With the corrupted ether pumping through his own veins, Sirius was hitting noticeably harder. Handled with iron-clad control, the poison that was supposed to cripple them became a raw amplifier for his strikes.
Liu’s breathing steadied as his mind cleared. He looked at Sirius, awestruck that the older man had willingly infected himself just to share the load. Then, his thoughts drifted to Ren. His friend carried an ocean of this exact corruption every single time without uttering that many complaints, no matter how much it burned.
And if also Sirius could weaponize the pain, if Ren could live with it, then Liu could certainly fight through it too.
The two warriors launched themselves at the Diamond behemoth in perfect synchrony.
It was no longer a solo, desperate retreat... It was a coordinated execution.
Sirius jumped with the terrifying speed of a man wielding a shadow elemental ring, his strikes carrying an extra fifty percent output, his light claws rendered heavy and brutal by the lingering corruption in his blood. Liu anchored the assault in his blood wendigo form, his mind crystal clear. He unleashed devastating sonic howls that rippled through the air, vibrating the mutant’s carapace until the armor splintered from the inside out.
Their synergy was flawless. Liu would unleash a deafening roar, the sheer acoustic pressure fracturing the Diamond’s outer shell and creating deep, jagged fissures. Sirius would instantly blink through the shadows, materializing right beside the newly opened cracks to sink his glowing claws deep into the unprotected flesh, carving significantly deeper than he ever could have managed alone. One strike perfectly paved the way for the next.
The Diamond mutant desperately tried to heal, but for the first time since it had crawled out of the dark, its regeneration was simply not fast enough to save it. It roared and charged, attempting to crush them against the tunnel walls.
Liu launched himself upward, also kicking off the rough crystal ceiling. From that elevated angle, he unleashed a concentrated sonic howl directly at the monster’s back. The acoustic pressure acted like a blade, carving a deep, jagged fissure straight down the creature’s loin side.
Sirius seized the small fleeting window. He shadow-jumped directly onto the beast’s back with his hands coated in the dense darkness provided by the shadow sovereign ring.
He plunged his claws deep into the fresh fissure and instead of retracting them for a second strike, he anchored his grip and forced his arms apart. Empowered by the artifact, he physically pried the corrupted flesh wider, tearing the armor open to expose the most vulnerable organs and systems underneath.
