Part 51: Baihu and Metatron.

Update 51
Okay, let us finish the 4 Beasts quest.



The last of the four guardians lies in the Maribel's base.
It is there, waiting.




Behind that yellow wall that I did not bother to open in the previous visits to Manipura.



Heat is pretty damn useful now.



"The hell?
He's supposed to be a newbie?

He went right through that wall."





The wall is a problem. Let's remove it.




This is in a room before the last Beast.




Oh my.
The last one.

Bai-Hu (Gamevee)
Also known as Byakko (Viddler)
Guardian of the West (Youtube)




That isn't probably the best way to grab the attention of the group that managed to destroy all opposition in that world.


Megtaten Wikilink


What?
Well, it was supposed to be a Purgatory, not exactly a hell, but it works.


After a while of kicking its ass...



Aww



Death Flies is really efficient at this.





That's the spirit!



Unfortunately, physical attacks are kind of useless too.





It doesn't last for long.






Pretty Earth combo.




But again, Black Sun is the one used to finish the job.





The last one.



"Okay, everyone's happy. Let's get going!"



"It is time to face our destiny, and learn the truth about our lives."




"Let's head for the Temple, Serph."



Cielo is the only one not concerned for rushing.

And there is something else to be done before the party heads t o the temple.




Huh, girls.





Curiosity killed the cat.

But anyway, there is something to be done in the Brutes' base.




Huh
That is new.




Giggly girls. Oh dear.



The other response:



Serph is not a good liar. Well, that'll happen when you are pretty much mute, I guess.





After activating this, one needs to go to the northeast area.




Well, yes.
The objective is behind the door.

Metatron (Gamevee)
The Voice of God (Viddler)
Not the last optional boss, but close to it.




No matter what one answers, he will go berserk.
Shame, really.





And then boom, transforms into the Voice of God.


Wikilink



Death Flies respects nothing, though.



He loooves to use this useless bit of magic.



And (at first) loves to remove the debuffs. That makes racking up the damage a bit harder.





bUT AGAIN, Death Flies.

Boosted by Mind Charge and Makajaka.



And again.




Useless useless useless.






Awww, he went nuts.





When he does that, this is needed.
Why? In the next turn he can and/or will use Mind Charge and Fire ofSinai, which is as good/bad as it was on Nocturne.





It still looks quite awesome, I must say.





Well, at least he'll find Laura again.

Or not, he will be recycled in the Sea of Milk, just like Laura. Shame, really.



"Null attack"



"Maragidyne
Fire Resist"

"Maziodyne
Elec Resist"




"Vanity
Salvation
Mana Surge"





"Maragidyine
Fire Resist"







Hooray for general stat upgrades.





Well, there it is.
Metatron is defeated.








But there is no Ice-cream in the Junkyard.
I bet Cielo would love it if there was any.





Hooray! Another optional mantra!
Not as good as others, though.





It is fucking expensive.
And those skills are kind of lame, except for Fire of Sinai.



Too expensive, though.








Everyone but Gale get ssomething.


Next: Back to the Tower.
