Both are promptly punished by getting hit by boiling hot blasts of white gas. The two are sent stumbling back in pain but they're still alive. Thankfully.
>GABBY takes 10 FLESH and RESTRAINT damage!
>MARUYAMA takes 7 FLESH damage! (ESOTERIC and MIXED damage negated by FORGOTTEN IN TIME!)
Benjamin racks another round into his rifle while the CEO is distracted. He aims to make sure his shot will land true before landing a critical hit! The anti-material round slams into the CEO's leg, forcing it to kneel for a brief second.
This onslaught of distractions is just barely enough to give Clover a chance to push his beam's power to its upper limit. The beam glows bright enough to blind anyone who's looking at it. Everyone has to cover their eyes to pretend their eyes being seared clean off.
>47!
The beam continues to blast away at the PURIFIER for a solid minute before it loses all of its potency. You uncover your eyes to see how much damage the CEO took.
Good news: A lot. Bad news: Not as much as you expected.
Its body is glowing bright orange from the sheer heat of Clover's beam. Clumps of molten metal peel off of its body in large, teardrop shaped lumps. They splatter onto the ground, leaving behind molten puddles. Its nozzle arm has been heavily damaged and is little more than a stump with a hole coming out of it. That'll certainly limit the range of its gas attacks.
Melted steel pours out of its vents like blood from gunshot wounds. That's about all of the damage the beam did. Structurally, it's still pretty intact. Its body is rapidly beginning to cool down as if it was just dunked with ice water.
>PURIFIER #952 took 284 FLESH and 233 RESTRAINT damage!
The CEOs watching this display are murmuring at what they just witnessed. That someone, anyone, could've done as much damage to a CEO as Clover just did.
PURIFIER #952 gets back onto its feet. Red gas, the same that turned Benjamin's skin into an infected mess, leaks out of its damaged nozzle. "I AM IMPRESSED. CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE." It raises its arm up at Clover but Casey promptly interrupts him with a single, piercing question.
"What do you gain from this?"
PURIFIER #952 immediately tries to shut her up with a wild blast of corrosive gas. Casey leaps out of the way but her leg gets grazed. Blisters and blood-filled pustules erupt across her (thankfully protected) leg.
>CASEY took 5 (2 blocked) FLESH DAMAGE.
"WHy are you like this? Why are you fighting us?"
"I TOLD YOU THE ANSWER ALREADY. SHE IS A THREAT - DON'T YOU SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING TO HER? SHE'S MUTATING RIGHT IN FRONT OF US!"
You grit your teeth. You're keeping your shell a stable size. You're still a human.
"THE STILLE DAG ARE GONE SO WHAT IS SHE GOING TO AFTER NOW? WHEN SHE TURNS INTO A MONSTER? CEOS LIKE ME? RANDOM PEOPLE THAT WEAR GREY CLOTHES? HER OWN ALLIES?"
"I'M SAVING YOU AND THE CITY ITSELF FROM A THREAT THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN SMOTHERED LONG, LONG BEFORE IT GOT HERE."
"Do you actually believe that?"
