Quick to put the Kaibosh on the BombBoy from blowing him and everything else up to hell, Courseman would quickly crash down upon the virus, the hail of icy water drowning it's hopes and dreams faster than a corrupt politician on the local stage (110). The mole summoned then quickly made it's way underground, and just before the Basher could manage to attack, sent it's shovel towards it's back...and unfortunately whiffing the attack entirely before burrowing underground. The Basher, angry, sent out a massive salvo of missiles, tracking down three of Courser's allies...his Needler would very narrowly avoid being blasted due to the Basher's fault. Courseman's bomb would then take the brunt of another salvo, draining away the water that once was there and finally...the final salvo managing to strike where Courseman stood...and his trap activated. Courseman's body disappearing into the mists as he would quickly reappear behind the Basher, his follow up attack immediately snuffing out it's second wind (20!). All while this was happening, the Cragger finally would find itself climbing out of the pool of icy water and onto dry land since it couldn't lift it's meaty hand for anything else. Courseman would give his next fire chip a power boost and the deleted viruses...would come back again...even weaker this time around.

King Cragger EXCragger EX (Cragger)

Craggers are pretty easy targets, given their size. They also move very rarely, and when they do they move slowly. Their dodge rate is abysmal. They generally rely on their HardBody defense, which reduces non-break damage by half, but doubles break damage. They have high attack power and AoE, but their accuracy is generally bad as their attacks are easy to follow and take time to deliver. Their attack is executed as a Drop Attack, and thus attacks from above, and not head-on. Targets caught underground within this attack's AoE range take an additional 50 Null damage that ignores all defenses.

Area: Netopia, Sharo, Hades Isle

HP: 160
Attack Damage/Effect: 60 Null + Break + Panel Break + WideAttack
Attack Accuracy: D
Attack Description: Slams the enemy and surrounding area with fist. This is executed as a Drop Attack, and is more damaging to targets below ground (IE: Submerged or burrowed).
Element: None.
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): GolemHit1, Zenny
Special: Hardbody.: 140 HP (next to where Diant Ice Cube A was at) (Normal) (Freeze1)
BombBoy EXBombBoy EX (BombLab)

BombLab viruses attack by summoning a huge cube-shaped explosive, called a BoyBomb. They push this bomb towards their enemies, using it as cover against incoming fire as they do so. It takes a BombLab virus an action to summon a BoyBomb, and another 2 to push it into attack range of the enemy. Once the explosive is in range, it will explode the very next turn. BoyBombs have StoneBody, and can be moved with special abilities, such as Knockback, Microburst, Pull, Gravity, and Telekinesis. BoyBombs will explode if physically picked up, however (EX: Rageclaw or similar means). Bomb Lab viruses jump, not teleport, back to their starting position after setting the BoyBomb.

Area: Netopia, Sharo, NAXA

HP: 130
Attack Damage/Effect: 60 Null + Blast 3
Attack Accuracy: S
Attack Description: Summons a 10 HP BoyBomb, and begins pushing it towards the enemy. Bomb deals massive damage once in range.

N.O-1N.O-1 (N.O.)

N.O. viruses are top-tier in combat, and will never appear in a thread before battle 6. N.O. viruses move and dodge at average speed. Unlike their battlechip, N.O. viruses DO NOT require an object to exist behind them in order to attack. All N.O. viruses regenerate 30 HP per action (of the virus) after taking damage. They do this at all times as a passive ability. N.O. have OmniShoes, and prefer to attack from the air.

BasherBasher (Basher)

Basher viruses are the top-tier of the stationary gunnery viruses with an unmatched single-shot damage output among the normal viruses. They are also the rarest of their class, and appear only after battle 5. They also never appear in large numbers in a normal battle, meaning the ratio of total viruses to Bashers should be at least 4 to 1. The attack cycle of Bashers is 2 actions long, regardless of which attack they use. The first attack requires one action to charge before firing, and the second attack executes twice in succession. If they are stunned, they resume their attack cycle where it was halted once the stun wears off. They don't move, and don't dodge.

Area: Sharo

HP: 120
Primary Attack Damage/Effect: 60 Fire + Break + Panel Break x3 Targets, 1 Action Charge
Primary Attack Accuracy: A
Primary Attack Description: The virus selects up to 3 targets, and spends an action charging up the main cannons. It then fires a Magnum blast that reduces most Network constructs to ashes with a single shot, usually leaving a blast crater where they once stood. It may target empty panels and objects as well as enemies.
Secondary Attack Damage/Effect: 10 Fire x3 Targets + Double Attack
Secondary Attack Accuracy: A
Secondary Attack Description: Fires a 3-shot spread from the left arm cannon, then follows up with an identical attack from the right arm cannon just after. Each cannon shot requires an action, and both attacks must occur one after the other.
Element: Fire
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): Magnum1 (Rare), Zenny

Element: Null
Special: Allied Virus: This virus has one action per turn, and is fully controllable by the summoner. If no orders are given, it will perform actions at random, but will never intentionally interfere with or damage the summoner or their allies. Deleting this virus will grant no additional rewards to either side.

Creating and getting his Shadow up, Courseman bolstered his own defenses and set himself up with his own trap to take advantage of a lull in combat, the battered Basher would begin to create ammo for itself and ready it's own guns for a proper barrage of attacks against Courseman, meanwhile, the King Cragger lifted it's arm upwards and slammed it downwards towards the Courseman atop the icecube, sending the giant meaty fist down...and missing so utterly, it's fist was a good several feet in front of both Coursemen and the ice cube it had intended to crush beneath it's fist.

Courseman setting up his Needler again as it began to move across the field deftly shooting out needles in the area, one missing the Basher while the other managing to hit (40), the N.O. attempted to dodge out of the way of the needles and getting the pair of shots embedded in it's face before it collapsed into the ground (40x2) and the BombBoy, miraculously, managed to sit still and do nothing, the needles going wide in either direction (MISS) as it contemplated what to do...PUSH of course! Jumping down and summoning a new bomb, it began to push. Push. PUUUUUSH. that bomb towards Courseman, the fuse alit and sturdy casing around it ready to explode in the navi's face. And then came Courseman's time to act once more, the shots being sent towards the Basher would both manage to connect (20x2!), the bombboy EX taking one on the noggin as the other went just to the side (10x1) and since his prior target in the N.O. was gone, would slam his pressurized whip into the outer casing of the BoyBomb, though it seemed to do little in defusing the bomb (1x2) and finally, the Cragger EX initially laughing off the puny navi's shots at it...until it's body suddenly had a fit, ice particles from it's throne finally working in Courseman's favor as it's throne melted to slush, the Cragger falling into a puddle of icey cold seawater, it was not only frozen in place and unable to attack, but it was without a throne to call it's own! How Horrible! (10x2, halved by Cragger's HardBody, Freeze1!)

Moving out from behind the Ice cube before the viruses could try to force him out, Courseman found himself towards the side of the shield he had been holding steady behind this entire time, holding out hope he could survive the onslaught. Thankfully for Courseman, his Decoy did the trick this time, the Cragger too infuriated to see where the real one was and slammed it's fist down towards a copy he had made...and winding up smashing into it this time...the copy disappearing without a second chance to evade, but it did it's job, the paneling out of the way cracked and broken beneath the MIGHTY MEATY FIST OF KING CRAGGER.
Meanwhile, being a bit of a dick to the BombBoy just doing it's job...Courseman flicked a seed of sea water towards the BombBoy EX, smacking it in the skull and causing it to completely crumple in a puddle in front of it's beloved bomb (10, +10% Sea generation, PING!) and then a blast of water sent out to the Cragger...barely managing to hit the immovable pile of stones (10/2), causing the Cragger to swiftly turn it's head towards the navi that dare to fling...SPITBALLS at it's head. All the while, Courseman set up the bomb in the water, the counter clicking down to two shortly after.

As he did so, the viruses that Courseman had deleted...began to slowly, but surely, begin to claw their way back up from the depths of deletion, mangled, muddled and otherwise not fine, Courseman had four enemies to contend with again in various states of wellbeing...though they DID seem weaker than before...and Jenny's PET brought up something about the fight, as well as how many times each individual virus had been deleted previously.

Asymptote would close his hand at her answer, the navi scanning over the data the bossman had sent him...of course things would get annoyingly complicated. Between First and Secondguess, as well as the Neo Shogunite presense here, he held his tongue for the moment as he shot back a PM to the boss.

Quote (Asymptote to Pantheonman)

Hear you loud and clear boss. Gonna have to put a damper on Spartoi's murderous streak again then, she nearly skewered Sake had I not told her to "play nice" for the time being. I'll do everything I can to avoid collateral damage between FirstGuess and the NS troops here, but I can't make any promises. Spartoi's definitely gonna be disappointed, but she'll live...hopefully.

PM sent off, Asymptote lumbered into the home behind Sake, the monsterous navi looking about slowly as Spartoi spoke up, a thought crossing his mind. Actually...perhaps we could come upstairs with you? I know we came here to talk with miss SecondGuess...but...Miss Spartoi. Think what we have to say is worth sharing with her friends up stairs? It wasn't strictly a confidential thing, right? Asymptote spoke quickly, turning and creening his head downwards towards Spartoi as he would wordlessly send her a PM.

Quote (Asymptote to Spartoi)

The boss just sent info to me. Two people from the NS. They're here, but he doesn't want us getting involved with any murder of them. Sorry to make that promise and break it almost immediately. But we can't start a war with them. He also sent me pictures of the two NS girls that are probably here, along with both Guesses. Girl in front of us is Sake, there's also potentially a gal named Arch here too. I'm forwarding them now, but we will probably have to run the second we take out SecondGuess. I think I have a couple chips I can lend you the data of to help with that if you need, but for now, we need to see if we can figure out which of them is SecondGuess.

Annoyed, but quick to act, Courseman would send out a trio of blasts from his trusty pistol, the blasts managing to ring true as the paneling beneath each target was broken up (120x3 targets, all hit) and otherwise destroyed along with two of the viruses, neither the Basher or NO-1 had a chance to evade as the BombBoyEX stood there and took it, simply pulling a bomb out of nowhere, the square explosive in front of it and ready to be pushed. Meanwhile, the Cragger stood on it's perch and taking a chance with the Courseman that was standing behind the icecube, it's massive fist rocketing towards the area he was at...and not only missing...but as the paneling cracked beneath it's fist, two shots rang out and smacked it...only more like a tiny tickle than anything worth worrying about (10x2 hits, halved damage). Courseman was ready to evade all the same and not take any damage from it...now it was just him and the two viruses.

King Cragger EXCragger EX (Cragger)

Craggers are pretty easy targets, given their size. They also move very rarely, and when they do they move slowly. Their dodge rate is abysmal. They generally rely on their HardBody defense, which reduces non-break damage by half, but doubles break damage. They have high attack power and AoE, but their accuracy is generally bad as their attacks are easy to follow and take time to deliver. Their attack is executed as a Drop Attack, and thus attacks from above, and not head-on. Targets caught underground within this attack's AoE range take an additional 50 Null damage that ignores all defenses.

Area: Netopia, Sharo, Hades Isle

HP: 160
Attack Damage/Effect: 60 Null + Break + Panel Break + WideAttack
Attack Accuracy: D
Attack Description: Slams the enemy and surrounding area with fist. This is executed as a Drop Attack, and is more damaging to targets below ground (IE: Submerged or burrowed).
Element: None.
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): GolemHit1, Zenny
Special: Hardbody.: 150 HP (Sitting on top of Ice Cube A) (Ice) (1 action)
BombBoy EXBombBoy EX (BombLab)

BombLab viruses attack by summoning a huge cube-shaped explosive, called a BoyBomb. They push this bomb towards their enemies, using it as cover against incoming fire as they do so. It takes a BombLab virus an action to summon a BoyBomb, and another 2 to push it into attack range of the enemy. Once the explosive is in range, it will explode the very next turn. BoyBombs have StoneBody, and can be moved with special abilities, such as Knockback, Microburst, Pull, Gravity, and Telekinesis. BoyBombs will explode if physically picked up, however (EX: Rageclaw or similar means). Bomb Lab viruses jump, not teleport, back to their starting position after setting the BoyBomb.

Area: Netopia, Sharo, NAXA

HP: 130
Attack Damage/Effect: 60 Null + Blast 3

Attack Description: Summons a 10 HP BoyBomb, and begins pushing it towards the enemy. Bomb deals massive damage once in range.

N.O-1N.O-1 (N.O.)

N.O. viruses are top-tier in combat, and will never appear in a thread before battle 6. N.O. viruses move and dodge at average speed. Unlike their battlechip, N.O. viruses DO NOT require an object to exist behind them in order to attack. All N.O. viruses regenerate 30 HP per action (of the virus) after taking damage. They do this at all times as a passive ability. N.O. have OmniShoes, and prefer to attack from the air.

BasherBasher (Basher)

Basher viruses are the top-tier of the stationary gunnery viruses with an unmatched single-shot damage output among the normal viruses. They are also the rarest of their class, and appear only after battle 5. They also never appear in large numbers in a normal battle, meaning the ratio of total viruses to Bashers should be at least 4 to 1. The attack cycle of Bashers is 2 actions long, regardless of which attack they use. The first attack requires one action to charge before firing, and the second attack executes twice in succession. If they are stunned, they resume their attack cycle where it was halted once the stun wears off. They don't move, and don't dodge.

Area: Sharo

HP: 120
Primary Attack Damage/Effect: 60 Fire + Break + Panel Break x3 Targets, 1 Action Charge
Primary Attack Accuracy: A
Primary Attack Description: The virus selects up to 3 targets, and spends an action charging up the main cannons. It then fires a Magnum blast that reduces most Network constructs to ashes with a single shot, usually leaving a blast crater where they once stood. It may target empty panels and objects as well as enemies.
Secondary Attack Damage/Effect: 10 Fire x3 Targets + Double Attack
Secondary Attack Accuracy: A
Secondary Attack Description: Fires a 3-shot spread from the left arm cannon, then follows up with an identical attack from the right arm cannon just after. Each cannon shot requires an action, and both attacks must occur one after the other.

(+5 Kunika FXP)

As Courseman glid away from the field of battle, Kunika picked herself up and would make a disappearance for the time being. In the bag of zenny there was something scrawled on a note...something related to Kunika? They seemed to be coordinates if he wanted to meet with her again on his own terms (Kunika Coordinates, use on a fresh thread in Sharo to meet with Kunika again, Key Item).

As he continued along the fields of snow, ice and whatnot, Courseman would eventually find himself in a clear field, a pair of ice cubes, bigger than he was by half of his own height and more than twice his width, though the water was certainly clear enough that it was possible to see through it (albeit like a funhouse mirror). Through the ice, a large darkened Cragger virus would fall down from the skies, crashing atop the second Ice Cube not that far away from where Courseman had found himself at. Atop the cragger's head was a large, overly sized crown adorned with more than just gold and gems, it was adorned with various...navi parts?! Ew. Soon after, multiple viruses would spawn in around and behind the Cragger's "Throne" of ice, including (yet another) Basher, a funny little man-shaped-yellow-thing with a red X for a face...and a Bomb Boy sporting colors similar to the Cragger. They would quickly notice the navi spying in on the Cragger and friends...and with it...war were declared on the navi, hoping to add to the Cragger's kill count and crown.

His metal clad feet echoed throughout the hellish network he had been transported into, sand beginning to deafen his steps, sinking deeper and deeper within the sand as his movement was hampered...before he knew it...he was surrounded by a pair of sandworm-like creatures, the bodies matching the color of the sand beneath his feet with additional details...and flowers for eyes. A mammoth rock-like creature falling down in front of him, the creature looking sturdy as he was also beset by the feathered flaming birds he had been hunting. Nothing like a hellish world around him, on top of equally dangerous (if not more so) creatures that lived in such hellscapes.

It's shit like this that make me wish I had my hammer... Kemix breathed, he was being circled by the sandworm-like creatures, stepping back as he did. He wasn't even sure if he could fight through all of this. The creatures circled him faster than he could properly react to. They would encircle the lumps of stone, finally quieting down as he did his best to survey the situation. They were all at triple digit HP values unfortunately so it wasn't an easy fight to simply breeze through like he did in Kotobuki earlier. He was beginning to think, sand slowly coallessing into his boots as he grumbled under his breath, he couldn't move properly, sand causing him to slowly sink within it's confines...a thought crossing his head, Kemix would take a chance...that extra program thought bought off that girl...maybe...

Closing his eyes and letting out a long exhale, Kemix would stomp the ground beneath him, a quake rippling out from beneath his feet as he tapped into that power, the quake rippling out as sand slowly disappeared into the ground beneath his feet. Soon after, verdant terf began to grow all around the navi in its stead, even while flamable, he wouldn't be hampered by the grass beneath his feet. Alright...now that the sand is not an issue...Ava!Lets see...ah! Get rid of the Cragger and FirePhoenix. Those worms attack from behind, but if you leverage those rocks with your back right to them, they can't attack you if there's something there or nothing to burrow out of. Use these to eliminate the two quickly. Ava would speak, PET being tapped at furiously as she brought up individual virus profiles for the three types that showed up as she sent three chips to her navi, enough to properly take care of what he needed to. Meanwhile, she was looking up a few other things on her PET, including potential upgrades for her navi to make use of.

Grunting as he received his chips, Kemix was quick to begin his assault on the viruses that had stopped him...he would begin with the one right in front of him, of course. The giant armored navi would rush his target with little more than his fist outstretched, arm swinging back behind the navi as he trampled grass and dirt beneath his heel as he swung the gauntleted hand forwards, a quintet of spikes jutting out from his knuckles as he attempted to connect deep into the Cragger's body, his shoulder beginning to jut outwards behind him as he did. The blow would do more than just pierce deep inside the cragger's rocky exterior, because if he had managed to connect, a pneumatic hiss would exhale all around his arm, the growth on his shoulder letting out a metallic creek as he would immediately follow up the crushing punch...powered by hydraulics and steam, the growth upon his shoulder immediately forcing itself through his arm and send his fist flying with a follow up crushing explosion of energy sending his fist outwards and likely crushing the Cragger to a simple rubble.

Turning himself right around to find the FirePhoenix almost immediately after his crushing dual blows against the Cragger, Kemix loaded up the second of his chips, eyes trying to keep on the Phoenix's movements as he began to ready his chip. Hands held outwards as a staff made out of pure blue energy began to slowly materialize as he took hold of one end of the smoothbore weapon, clenching it tightly in his fingers, the navi would bring back his hand and throw the energy based weapon towards the virus, swinging it like a bat as it left his hand, the staff would begin to spin about the air as condensation formed around it, high pressurized water exploding out of the energy construct before finally flying out towards the bird of fire to wash it away in cool rushing water.

His attacks through, Kemix turned his tail back around towards the rock that Ava had pointed out, it was fairly soft looking as far as rocks went, he couldn't help but think Ava's council on this was a little on the iffy side, but he would put his trust in her for the moment. His feet trampling further grass and dirt down as he displaced a few blades of grass here and there on his way towards the rock, swiveling his body around as he did to keep his back firmly against it to keep the sandworm viruses from getting an opening against him. All the while, he activated the final chip sent to him, hand outstretched, a massive iron wrought tower shield would form about his hands, handle perfectly molded around his digits like a pair of brass knuckles, the actual shield part that formed in front of him slamming heavily against the ground, a small burst of wind erupting around the point of impact immediately afterwards.

Panting out heavily as he siddled back, his armor touching against the rock behind him, Kemix would be quick to use his free hand to grab the gourd against his waist, the navi heafting the massive jug of water up to his mouth as a sturdy energy barrier began to form around his body to further shield himself from the heat and horrors of the network around him. All the while, he would tip his head back and begin to take a deep, long drink out of his jug of water, cool water rushing through his throat as he drank heavily of the water within, body swelling with aquatic energy as he drew upon it's powers.

As he transformed himself with the power of a cross, Kunika was readying herself for whatever might come, she could barely move her arms as is from the sudden blast of water chilling her to her core, doing what she could to remain hidden for the time being.

Whilst searching through the weapons, however, two weapons would find his grasp even if he didn't exactly have the free hands for them at the moment. A simple piece of wood, one end tapered off to a broken and splintered part, obviously having been much longer in the past, it seemed like at the very least it would be useful in disarming an opponent if nothing else while the splintered end would at the very least cause some minor damage. The other weapon he had managed to pick out from the crowds of similar looking weapons was a simple looking Kunai...but seemed...sturdy, durable and sharper than the others around it, a yellowish coloration upon the weapon's metal...and at the end where he could hold it, draped down a tag of some sort of origin, written in a language he probably didn't understand, with some simple diagrams that showed if it was thrown...it would explode upon impact. The weapons were distinct enough if he picked them up, but if he didn't before too long they would blend in with the rest of the weapons all around him.

Kunika's movements around him continued, the clang and displacement of metal on metal as she lunged at him just shortly after he had set down the bomb...and into the explosive finale of the fight. Stars rocketing across her invisible body as she couldn't even touch him with her weapons systems, the frozen parts of her arms preventing her attacking...and then he fired the heatshot downwards, damaging her even further, she was knocked back by the blast, her undershirt barely keeping her in the network as it stood. Her body rematerializing as chip data dropped from her body as well as a small bundle of Zenny that Courseman could take.

On her knees, Kunika sighed as ice melted away, her garb a complete mess between the two extremes of temperature, cuts from earlier s she grumbled in front of the victor. "You have won this day, mouse. In accordance of navi battles, these are your rewards."

Ther metallic kunoichi narrowed her eyes at the man in front of her, she could see his clone moving into position finally, her head turning about as he began to protect himself further, a shield of some sort...she was beginning to wish she had something like that at the moment, her lowered form soon assaulted by a hail of watery slivers crashing down upon her position, causing her to make a move to evade, instead of leaping towards her attacker in a fashion akin to a bear mauling it's prey...unfortunately for Kunika, she took a hit of the slivers, one tearing across her side (40) as she had managed to evade the others just barely, a slight drip of redish oil beginning to stain her garb as she let out a hiss, displacing more and more of the weaponry scattered about.

"Not bad...not everyone...gets a clean hit like that upon me." She spoke plainly, her body undulating about as she watched him, and his clones, carefully. She could tell he prepared...SOMETHING...but could not figure out what it could be, squinting as he had refreshed his barrier, she began to reach into her kunoichi outfit...looking for something with her massive clawed hands. But before she could pull it out, Courseman launched another attack, in tandem with his clones he set out to strike against the kunoichi, his claws striking true against her body without erring (40) from his attack. "Do not mock me..." She hissed, her garb torn even further as she finally pulled out what she was looking for... "I did not take this scar by choice, little mouse." She hissed again as she threw down a ball of energy, a thick smoke immediately rising up to not only obscure...but completely hide the Kunoichi from view. Even as Courseman sent another attack her way, she was unable to evade the strike against her despite her obscured form, the heavy wave of icy water striking true against the kunoichi and freezing not only her, but her systems down to the bone and then some! (115+Freeze1) It was a good thing she was obscured from view...otherwise Courseman and his clones might make some rather...perverted remarks? Kunoichi garbs were not exactly known for their thick padding, after all, Kunika's teeth audibly chattering around her prey as she tried to find somewhere to hide...dry off and warm up. "D-D-Do not think...I will b-bow down...t-to you!" She yelled, her voice projecting around the area.

She would begin eying Courseman like a scared dog. Her body trembling as he...made no effort to attack her...instead he began to talk to her...even if his life was in danger...he made the effort to speak to her. Kunika had not encountered this in so long, a visible tinge on her cheeks as he complimented her. It had been so long. But then apprehension...no...fear took hold of her heart as she only readied herself even further, a near crouch on her form...metal scraping against the metal weaponry scattered about, poles of wood displaced as she spoke.

"Your honeyed words...your stance...you LIE TO ME. I cannot allow myself to be taken in by such words...not again...never again." She spoke, almost hurriedly as her mind raced, eye darting around like a caged animal's would, she was about ready to pounce upon him with great force. "Courseman...I will remember that name...I am Kunika...the Iron Kunoichi." She spoke again, more composed...but a slight tinge of blush on her cheeks. His words seemed to have some effect upon her...but not in the way he wanted...all the while a dull kunai would wizz past the real Courseman's cheek, not hitting him...but leaving a metallic clang behind him.
