New Beginning 17: Souls of Intellect

[Marvelous Miscreant]

(that's because my computer is broken and I can only post from my phone.)

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I look at the infinitely-looping Apples of Discord. If they're going to infinitely loop, I think to myself, I may as well put the loop to good use. Chaos Cataclysm allows me to spatially direct the loop around the Celadon Guardian. I then replicate them, and arrange them so their constant looping forms a barrier to keep the Guardian in. Should he attempt to pass through them, he'll either be harmed by the impact, or taken by one of the effects of the apples...

Then, channeling all the power, anger, violence, destruction and war based gods (Cratos, Ares, Enyo, Eris, Perses, Pallas, Alala, Polemos, Lyssa, The Maniae, etc), I await the second he finds some way to escape. His anger powers will enhance MY strength against him.

Meanwhile, Techne enhances the metabolism of her nanocytes. They build up so much energy that they begin to replicate by binary fission. Then, as they reach numbers well over the millions, they initiate their spatial-stabilization protocols, preventing any harmful spatial manipulation on their part. And forcefields project out of each of them, with the capacity to negate powers on contact.

[Philote]

The Guardian thaws himself with his built up spirit energy. He focuses his attention on the dagger wielder, decided to face the lightning user when he evolves a way to deal with the magnetism.

[Philote]

@Marv: (Aw  Good Luck)

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Pannychis grins, "If you fail once, try, try again!"

She tries another approach by burning the area that the guardian is in with her Soulsword while simultaneously prepping for another attack. Lightning Troll directs lightning to hit the guardian yet again as well.

[Philote]

@Wulf: Both the Guardian and Wulf utilize the Mythpowers for Rage, causing a feedback loop between them, causing both their powers to skyrocket.

Using both powers of Travel and Space, he relocates out of the prison, instead of trying to force his way out.

With his power being built up, he releases one of his stronger abilities. Using his own variation of MythPower: Olympus Invocation, he summons Olympus itself, shrouded in the full power of the Pantheon that live within it, and sends it down like a spear from space.

Meanwhile, Morphs body glows as he prepares his newest technique. From his body, a larger clone separates and moves behind him. This Assistance Unit fully mechanizes, instead of remaining in a liquid metal body like Morph.

The AU amplifies Morphs own beam weapon, which is further focused by his satellite. He fires the beam that is amplified by all three sections of himself, narrowing it to a point to take on only a small section of the shield instead of the whole thing. He continues to exert force from his Core, determined to overpower the defenses of the shield.

[Philote]

@Dryad: (At this point we kind of need to wait for the others to catch up, since you seem to be posting the most, So i'm going to draw the battle out more instead of having him start to lose)

The Guardian wades through the electrical and fiery assault, taking on more wounds but not ceasing his attack. Even with several spots of his flesh missing, he evolves his ability yet again.

The metallic blood pouring from his body ceases, and fuses with his remaining skin, and grows out in several areas as spikes. Spirit energy dances from the tip of each metallic tip. Swinging the sword with renewed strength, he parts the sky with the force.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

(Just remember that even more opponents are going to be pouring in because of the call to the nations with students in the MCA)


Lightning Troll grins, "This is insane and exactly how I like it!"

Pannychis frowns, "His zanpaku-to is an odd one. You should have taken him down quickly before this."

She triggers yet another attack, this time it's 50 daggers all simultaneously firing fireballs, ice shards, electrical blasts, quartz shards, and metal bullets.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Realizing that the Golden Apples being sent directly won't be easily allowed to harm him, I imbue the swirling mass with even more MythPowers.

Again with MythPower: Laelaps' Pursuit and MythPower: Teumessian Fox-Trot. Now the entire whirling mass will come chasing the Guardian.

But also with MythPower: Prowess of Palioxis and MythPower: Prowess of Proioxis. This makes the pursuit even easier, as the whirling mass can adapt to any attack sent at it.

And MythPower: Dyssebia's Defiance, so no divine attack my directly harm it.

And MythPower: Maidens' Mastery, in case you decide to turn invisible, or jump realms (it can sense spatial distortions, speed, trajectory, velocity, momentum, inertia, etc)

This ball WILL hit the Guardian eventually one way or another.

And I turn into a portal again, ready to transport Mount Olympus to where it belongs, as it heads toward me.

Techne reaches her hand into her pocket, with an insidious smirk on her face. The second the shield breaks, she'll have a nice surprise in store for the metallic menace...

[Philote]

(I can't narrate every battle most likely, so we will probably let most of it happen in the background, with other members of my army fighting your group, and skip forward to the point where Dryad and the other you mentioned break away and come to fight me yourself)

The Guardian swings his right blade, sending a wave of spirit energy out to deflect most of the barrage into other paths, while simultaneously stabbing in the direction of  Pannychis with his left sword, sending out a spiral of spirit energy that tears at the earth it passes.

[Philote]

@Wulf: Seeing the incoming apples yet again, he departs his remaining energy from him into the Olympus Spear. (Which is fueled by Hermes as well (Traveling and Border Crossing control) so teleporting it away won't work . Might want to deflect it before it hits you or Celadon.)

(And the surprise would be...?)

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

The spiral of energy is suddenly deflected by a curved mana shield put up by Lightning Troll. Lightning Troll then boosts gravity's effect on the area that the guardian is in and Pannychis has her Soulsword fire of even more projectiles at the guardian.

---------------------------------------

I look around at all the fighting going on and say to Mina, "We need to find out who is behind all of this."

Mina replies, "I'll go with you. The two of us should have the greatest chance at taking down whoever it is. After all, you're one of the founders of the Mars Combat Academy and I'm the previous Number One. Heh, the Archdruid and the Fist of Unforgiving Flame going off on a mission together. Who would've thought?"

The two of us teleport away.


(Ok, I'll still narrate my characters in these fights and we can assume that Mina and I are searching for the source of this madness.)

[Celadon's Penultimate]

(Nunya business...you'll see when Techne hits him with it.)

And as for me, I turn back to normal, and channel the Ourea, the ancient Greek mountain gods. Specifically the one who lends his name to Mount Olympus.

The mountain stops in mid...um, air. Space. Wherever we are.

And then it breaks up into teeny tiny little pieces, and forms around me as a montane version of a Mech. Through it, I channel my MythPowers, and call up still more powers from various other pantheons.

Time to make this Celadon Guardian feller pass away and die.

[Philote]

@Dryad: ()
The Guardian in the gravity field raises his swords in front of him and uses the spirit energy surrounding them as a shield against the next barrage. Sending more floating metallic eyes around the field and outside the zone of the enhanced gravity, he uses them to fire spirit infused metallic strikes from varying angles onto the battlefield.

@Wulf: (Your Mythpower knowledge is overwhelming )
The Guardian, with his energy drained into his last attack and with the incoming apples and Olympus Wulf, can only face down the inevitable.

Morph pierces through the barrier eventually, and the beam continues on towards Techne at peak strength.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Each blast of spirit imbued metal is blocked by a barrier of gold coins before hitting combatants in random parts of the battlefield. A girl runs forward and stops by Lightning Troll and Pannychis. Lightning Troll says, "Ohmigosh, Peruca! Did the Elemental Union send you?"

Peruca grins and hefts a giant diamond sword before saying, "Yup! The Elemental Union sent the one and only Peruca Spellcaster, descendant of the archmage Aurum Umbral Spellcaster, to defend the Mars Combat Academy. Besides, I wanted to see Mina since the two of us graduated the same year, her Number 1 and me Number 3. Don't see her though but I should go all-out. Ultimate Form, Heir of Immeasurable Wealth!"

The number of gold coins multiplies until it is 512,000,000,000 and a necklace of pearls appears around Peruca's neck. Everytime a gold coin touches an enemy they fall to the ground having had their weight multiplied by 1000 but only for them. Peruca cries, "Let's get this party started!"

200 gold coins fly at the guardian as Pannychis and Lightning Troll unleash even more attacks.


(If you think this is insane, you guys have yet to see the teachers' releases! Cookie if you correctly figure out which movie I got Peruca's name from!)

[Philote]

(Can't really draw this out if you keep adding more people  at least let me knock one of them out of the fighting if it is going to be a 3 v 1)

The Guardian is hit by one of the coins and notices the weight increasing effect. Shrouding himself in armor of spirit energy, he pushes back coins as they draw near.

Evolving again, his metal grows darker as it becomes resistant to magnetism. Under the effects of the gravity, he is only able to move due to the numerous upgrades he has gained to his strength from the releases. Moving forward, he strikes at Lightning Troll with both of his swords.

(Any significance to which numbers you selected?)

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

(Well, Pannychis and Peruca basically went after the one they designated as being most dangerous regardless of who was already fighting. For Peruca's Soulsword take 20 and cube it for 8000, then cube 8000 for the number of gold coins she ends up with in Ultimate Form. For Pannychis' Soulsword, take 4 and square it for 16, then square 16 for 256, the number of daggers in her Soulsword's Ultimate Form.)

Lightning Troll takes the blow, but badly and falls to the ground unconscious as his regeneration works to repair the damage. Peruca fills her the diamond blade of her Soulsword with light and shadows, then unleashes fusion magic blasts at the guardian and Pannychis unleashes a barrage of wind blades as well from her Soulsword.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I psychically channel through the Ourea Mech the capability of all the Olympians. Their powers will undoubtedly work best through it.

Zeus' Zenith; Hera's Habit; Poseidon's Prestige; Apollo's Gift; Artemis' Gift; Hermes' Hustle; Athena's Thought; Ares' Wrath; Aphrodisia; Bacchanalia; Hephaestus' Forge; Demeter's Touch, and Hestia's Hearth...

Augmented with the elemental power of the rest of the MythPowers, and the Elementals of Celadon, the Celadon Guardian is thrust back ward at amazing speed, causing him to collide with the sphere of whirling Apples of Discord, and vanish into oblivion. Or perhaps Phi's manor for when the game is over. Whichever works.

As for Techne, she sees the beam, and immediately pulls out her hypercube, The Tesseract. A highly advanced hammerspace, it will undoubtedly be able to soak any damage intended for techne.

[Philote]

@Dryad: (I'll draw this out till sometime tomorrow, having the guardian jumping up levels in strength, and then dieing to the wounds he has received)

Whatever attacks make it through the Guardian's spirit armor strike against his metallic flesh, adding more wounds to his tattered skin. The metallic eyes in the air link together, and attach to the Guardian's back as wings. He flies above the other two, the eyes in the wings glowing. He presses his two blades together and swings them as one, sending out a rift of energy.

@Wulf: (The Tesseract, is that from a myth?)
Switching tactics, Morph separates from the AU and Satellite, sending them off in opposite directions. By attacking from multiple directions, he hopes to catch Techne off guard.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

(Alright. After this post I'm going to sleep. It's past midnight fo me)


Peruca grins as she steps in front of the rift of energy and her necklace of pearls absorbs it then spits it right back out at the guardian. Meanwhile, Pannychis has her Soulsword create a near invisible net of steel string around the guardian to restrict his movements.
