The Last Poster Wins! [V9]

[Sir Sivelos]

*SIVELOS uses TECH: AIR LOCK, level 9999! Controlling wind currents, SIVELOS literally creates an AIR LOCK around NIDHOGG; currents so vicious they might as well be a solid, tightening around NIDHOGG's body.*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*NIDHOGG is now taking AXPHYRATION damage at this stage! He's 70% coated at this point. HOWEVER, the whole point will be for naught, you realize, as NIDHOGG's adaptive armor will start protecting him from ASPHYXIATION damage as well...Unless you coat ALL of him, which qualifies for an instant kill!*

*FIRE and WATER (AND GLUE) will not work, as previously mentioned. Plants must be fireproofed to work. You have used EARTH, WIND/ELECTRICITY, PSIONIC, CANDY, ACID and LIGHT to great success.*

*TAZZ coats him in ANTIFABRIC, which is ANTIMATTER energy! Make it 80%!*

*The rest of your allies get on with keeping the horde at bay due to NIDHOGG's last, super-devastating attack! It's up to you!*

[Ganyu]

*casts Banshee Death Ritual; sharp soundwaves surround NIDHOGG in a ring, battering on every side, the banshee cries are so ear-piercing, they might as well be giant needles stabbing NIDHOGG in a cage.*

[Sir Sivelos]

*SIVELOS uses tech: GREEN SERPENT, level 9999! Several large vines sprout from the ground, ready for command. SIVELOS quickly fireproofs them before sending them after NIDHOGG, wrapping around him tightly and also making it harder to move.*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*DIMENTIO uses LV. 9999 DARK RING! A dark ring crushes the last portion of NIDHOGG! He is now totally covered and taking more damage than his HP allows-all of it the kind that results from depriving a living thing of oxygen!*

*Due to the sound cage, Nidhogg's roars, then whimpers, cannot be heard beyond them clearly being roars, then whimpers. He dies all the same, collapsing and exploding in a particularly violent L00T$PL0$10N!*

Image: What?! Wait, they...Actually did it?!

*Image's voice is louder than usual, and though he doesn't go in to check, you can't help but smirk at doing something his calculating a** didn't expect.*

*The units all retreat at the loss of their massive daemonic siege worm on copious amounts of steroids. With no army to back them up, the rouge Elder Souls retreat with their battered units. Reprieve, for the moment. You have survived the second wave.*

The Black: <Ahhhahahahahahahahaha!!! Stay dead, worm!>

*NIDHOGG's corpse becomes consumed in void, leaving the L00T intact, which includes several patches of his skin, a whole PORE CANNON that somehow still operates despite it being biological and removed from the rest of NIDHOGG, and legendary weapons of any variety, including a few that beloned to the KAMI LORD and others of SIVELOSES time...And also...*

*A load of figures SIVELOS, APOPH and LIGHT CHOAS all recognize as the END KNIGHTS (or whatever they were called) and their LEADER (the guy who could freeze a lot of stuff) appear! They appear to have been swallowed by NIDHOGG at some point, probably during his time following the RaGNaK around. They don't speak, but give you a thumbs up collectively-they will fight for your side unambiguously, starting right now. NIDHOGG's stomach was that horrible.*

*Also, your new units have arrived-teleported directly into the area thanks to APOPH are PHOTON CANNONS, which will tear into any enemy of any size, on the ground or in the air. They mercifully do not require pylons, and are autonomously powered, a step up over the Protoss variant.*

[Ganyu]

*takes a patch of skin and a strange prism that seemed to have an aura of electrified air around it*

[Sir Sivelos]

((The END KNIGHTS are correct, yes.))

*Their leader, who does not happen to be the one you were talking about, stumbles forward, clad in a green cape and armor, and particularly awesome sunglasses. Some other End Knights step forward, bewildered and understandably shaken.*

End Knight: I… what the…

*One of the End Knights, who is wearing what seems to be a mix of political robes and battle armor, steps forward to help the END KING. Others of similar dress code appear. One turns to you.*

Caretaker: Are you… Are you the one who saved us from the demon lord?

SIVELOS: I guess so! Are you guys all right!?

Caretaker: Our planet… Our whole empire got swallowed by that beast. My KING, are you all right!?

End King: *The END KING seems to have collected himself, and nods gravely. He points to you, then back to him.*

Caretaker: …I see… Well, it seems our King would like to repay you. Consider the full force of the END KNIGHT's army at your disposal.

*Your forces just grew massively in number! The END KNIGHT forces come in all shapes and sizes, all of them specializing in various types of magic, some of which are unfamiliar to you. They all seem to have the same general unit types, from WAR MEDICS to KNIGHTS, etc. Some of the ones that stand out are:*

*THE END KING, a lightning bruiser with mastered control over time magic and space magic. You couldn't find a better Reality Warper in the END KNIGHTs' army.*

*MR. ICE, a tanky individual with incredibly powerful control over fire and ice, and possesses a unique ability of "freezing time" using ice magic. It's unknown HOW he does it, but maybe you'll find out.*

*The CARETAKERS, all of which are more support-based units rather than infantry, but possess powerful light and dark based magic.*

*All of the END KNIGHT units disperse themselves accordingly after being briefed.*

That's really lucky we managed to find them at a time like this… Kind of odd, but great nonetheless.

So, uh… How did you guys wind up INSIDE Nidhogg?

End King: *various sign language*

Caretaker: To keep it simple, we were readying our army for a siege on a nearby planet, when a huge fleet appeared on our radars. Next thing we knew, we woke up in what appeared to be some sort of… acid filled cave. It was horrible… *The END KNIGHTS collectively shiver.*

---

*LC rummages around the L00T pile, finding various artifacts from KAMI LORD. They include some artifacts from the other LORDS, such as SHAMAN LORD's turban, FORTRESS LORD's armor, and other things… But what stands out is a broken MEMORY ORB, an artifact to storing memories. What makes it so important is that this is the very one entrusted to LIGHTNING LORD, who guarded the ORB, as it contained the memory of how to get to KAMI LORD, who was hiding in an extremely secretive location. Meanwhile, SIVELOS gathers up his portion of L00T, and goes back to TAZZ and the others to rally up their forces for the next wave.*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

Apoph: OK, that's one done! I think I can get one more before the next wave starts.

Tazz: Excellent!

*The DEPLOYERS whir to life and immediately start deploying more buildings, including more PHOTON CANNONS. CUEBALLS on the outer edges remain blank for now. Healers and others heal up to full HP.*

*Now is the perfect time to change what units are being spawned by the TELEPORT ANCHORS. END KNIGHTS, due to typically being more bulky, replace FIGHTERS for now.*

[VeloJello]

*VELO sidles in, letting the l00t be by virtue of not having earned any of it.*

What's a TELEPORT ANCHOR?

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*A TELEPORT ANCHOR is where your units are deployed from. You can deploy a maximum of eight different types of units from these at once. You can change unit selection at any time.*
