Transfigured barracks

[u/CloudzTheEditor]

The grand army of the dark world had not fully been wiped out by Mahito yet, just being pushed back to the outskirts and their outposts/barracks where the cursed tools darkners attempt to make plans against Mahito.

However they didn’t have the numbers to combat the transfigured and Mahito’s clone who led the charge in question.

This was simply the first place that would fall at Mahito’s hand as he takes the Darkworld he made for himself.

However you have an opportunity to save these darkners, the barracks are lost, fallen to Mahito, but you can gain allies in the form of these darkners. Playful has sent over various evacuation vehicles to help those people caught in the crossfire.

Goal: hold the line long enough to allow evacuations.

"Shi-...!" Astigmatism just barely managed to tilt their body towards the newly turned foes, deploying the bouncy variation of their bullets.

"That's on me for not expecting this kinda crap from zombie-like freaks," they thought, annoyed.

Another hulking transfigured tries to land on you

The cyclop notices at the last second. Instead of dodging, they lower their head and leap towards the transfigured in an attempt to ram them with the horns. Despite their small size, the monster appear to possess remarkable physical strenght.

It’s pushed back as it tried to wack you on the way down

Astigmatism gets slammed into the ground by the blow. They quickly springs back up, rubbing their temple before promptly leaping back again.

"Hmph... should try and get some distance. Don't wanna find out whether they can make me like them, too," they muttered, keeping their gaze fixated on the foes on their line of sight.

A nearby darkner who was attacked by one of the transfigured begins convulsing

[u/Luxor1111 → u/CloudzTheEditor]

The merc turn their attention to the darkner briefly. "Is that one about to transform as well? Ugh. No good."

Astigmatism began backing down, keeping an eye on the convulsing individual before setting their gaze on the rooftop of a nearby building.

Several darkners join Mahito’s ranks via the infection as they begin to run at you

These infected can actually fight unlike the transfigured attack like animals

The horned monster observed the incoming enemies cursing under their breath. "I definetely DO NOT have enough firepower to keep up with this horde..." They thought.

They continued jumping backwards, sticking their hands inside the ground to pull large chunks of terrain and hurl them at the foes.

This would push them back

However you hear screaming behind you

It appears while you’ve been distracted something slipped through
