[center][h3]Zer0[/h3] [b]Level 1[/b] - (6/10) EXP [b]Location:[/b] 1-1, Lower Canyon [b]Word Count: 415[/b][/center] [hr] Zer0 was in heaven. He was pretty sure, anyways. Where else would he get to beat all these challen- Oh, yeah. Pandora. Oh well. This could be Pandora 2: Zer0 Strikes Back! As he finished off the last of the visible enemies above, and the cowards of the enemy ran like pathetic LOOT Bots, he took a moment to enjoy the odd music that the Merc had been playing. In the middle of a spin, however, there was an audible clank nearby. He saw the weird ass bomb and promptly noped the fuck into a dive. But unlike the Merc he didn't have the luxury of a big ass rock blocking the worst of it. The shockwave caught him, shoving him into a wall with a resounding [I]SMACK[/I] as he stayed down until the explosion stopped. Slowly he stood up, retrieving his sniper from The ground at his feet, and he carefully assessed the situation. Assuming assessed meant activating his stealth and quickly moving to the flank of the enemy. [I][b]"How hilarious You just set off my trap card Your death approaches."[/b][/I] With the first utterance he began his attack, methodically attacking at the weak points. The first victim was in one moment preparing another spear when in the next moment there was suddenly a spray of blood and a sword sticking out of his neck. Zer0 was fast, agile, and had years of being aware of his surroundings. He was a skilled swordsman that few could hope to match. And these mooks? They were no match for his blade. Just like butter for his toast. Or maybe jam would be more appropriate, considering the color and goopy mess of flesh laying at his feet. [Color=tan]"Zer0, can you cover me while I look for that bomb-lobbin’ asshole?"[/color] :| [I][b]"Pilling corpses at My feet, cover I can give Forming from bloodshed."[/b][/I] From there Zer0 focused on the remaining distance fighters, killing them brutally and efficiently in an almost casual way. How do you kill someone casually when you had no face? Hell if he knew. Hell if he cared. Slipping his sword into the heart of an enemy, Zer0 pondered briefly about the situation. There seemed to be a Badass approaching, if that bomb was anything close to an indicator. Oooooh, maybe it would be an Ultimate Badass. Those were always at least mildly challenging, and they were all the more satisfying to remove.
