A handful of my bugs were wiped from existence a fraction of a second before more explosions of varying size ripped through the area around her. Legend was somewhere up in the air.
Oh hell yes.
So I guess the bugs that got wiped got caught in the laser blasts?
I drew my bugs together around Siberian’s head, in the hopes that I could distract her. It was pretty thin, but there wasn’t much I could do. Even a direct hit with Legend’s lasers wouldn’t affect her.
Better than nothing, I suppose.
I shifted locations, flying half a block before landing again. I could just barely make out the pair of combatants with my swarm sense.
So they’re near the edge? Or is it that they’ve wiped out too many bugs?
Something about what Legend was doing seemed odd. He wasn’t firing constantly. Rather, his shots seemed to be strategically placed.
Maybe he’s trying to manipulate the environment to make it harder for Siberian to navigate it? He knows she’s not affected by the explosions directly.
He ripped apart the side of a building a moment before Siberian landed there, then tore through the five or six floors beneath her so she had nowhere to go except straight down. The instant she stepped free of the building’s ground floor, he tore into the ground with a series of laser blasts that expanded outward, thinning as they went.
…is he trying to leave her in a deep pit?
It created a bowl-shaped indent, with rubble covering the storm drains that had been exposed by the lasers.
We need to go deeper if stranding her in a pit is indeed the goal here.
