Your perspective shifts. Your legs twist and extend like they've been round up and compressed for so, so long. Everyone looks so much shorter than they were only a few seconds ago.
You scratch at your face. It's so itchy yet, at the same time, you can't feel anything. Only the slimy, gross texture of rotten flesh on your face.
None of your allies seem to notice just yet. Your hair's so long now that it's hiding your face. The rest of their attention is focused on the CEO itself.
Your antlers begin to burrow into your skull. It should be painful but all you feel is the slight pressure of the boney material pressing against your brain.
You. You're losing your grip. You need to get your head in the game.
>You picked enough options to slow your transformation! NEW BOON: [GOT A GRIP] obtained!
>[GOT A GRIP] You slowed down your transformation enough to have mild control over your mutating body. Your mind is able to withstand your mutation far better than it otherwise would've.
[GOT A GRIP] A second passes. You bite your own tongue. The taste of blood stains your mouth.
Everything shifts back slightly. Your antlers recede, your legs shrink, the flesh on your face heals. Your thoughts clear.
You ground yourself long enough to think up of a plan.
>YOU? gain +2 CHARM, CONNECTIONS and WILLPOWER.
The order comes out of your mouth before your brain can process itself, "BEAM HIM! BEAM HIM!!! BEAM! HIM!!!"
PURIFIER #952 is already charging right at Clover. Clover doesn't wait another second before holding his palms towards the CEO.
An intense beam of yellow light erupts out of the center of his hands. PURIFIER #925 doesn't seem to register it even got hit by it at first. It tilts its 'head' at Clover, "WHAT? IS THAT IT?" It's enough to make it go from 'charging at Clover' to 'casually strolling at Clover' at least!
It's clear, though, it's solely to taunt him.
Clover clicks his tongue. His eyes begin to shimmer with the same bright yellow hue as the beam he's shooting. The beam glows brighter and brighter, brighter than light itself. His face turns red from all of the effort he's putting behind it.
It's enough to start slowly pushing PURIFIER #925 back.
"ALRIGHT. ENOUGH GAMES." Once PURIFIER #925 finally takes the attack seriously, it begins to charge head first at Clover again. The beam is barely slowing it down - You need to buy him some time.
You cake two Q-CORP SHOTGUN SLUGS in your last bits of HOLY OIL. Your other allies prepare to buy Clover as much time as humanly possible with their own weapons.
You aim for one of the VENTS and FIRE!!!
One slug bounces off its metallic body but the other hits its target. It bounces around inside the CEO's body, distracting it for a brief second. Before it has time to readjust, Maruyama and Gabby charge forward with their weapons raised high in the air.
Maruyama's blade leaves a trail of rust across the side of its body while Gabby manages to make another solid dent with her wrench!
