Lord of Metal, Solomon

''This page is about Solomon as he appears in the Lord Of Metal boss fight RP Event. For his normal form, see Solomon.''

The Lord of Metal, Solomon, was a major villain in the third quarter of User Battles: Recharged. He is the ultimate form of Solomon, who took over the arena by trapping Henry in his room and taking the weakened ZedRec's most vital chips, placing them into himself to become more powerful. He went to the center of the basic arena battlegrounds to harness the power to the height of his ability.

Battle
The battle against the Lord of Metal took place on the night of December 13th, 2020, after the conclusion of the Buff 16 special battle. Solomon ordered Nightmare, Fear, Glitzy, and Scarlet to make preparations as he shut down the power and trapped Henry, proceeding to go to ZedRec's chamber. Fear guarded him as he forcefully took ZedRec's power chips, then heading to the arena to take on his "true" form.

The first phase of the battle had the users desperately trying to attack and dodge Solomon, unable to break the barrier surrounding him. He activated the beacons set up by his lackies, causing a magnetic pulse to shut down all the robotic lifeforms - including Nightmare, Glitzy, and Scarlet. As Fear got mad and turned on Solomon, Salty produced an Upgrade Engine, passing it to Egg, who eventually decided to give it to Nightmare, who was also turning on Solomon.

Solomon declared he needed nobody, attacking those who worked with him just the same. However, he focused too much power on attacking Nightmare, and the barrier could no longer be sustained. Freed from the forcefield, the Lord of Metal became vulnerable, though he now had more maneuverability as well. The battle became one of strength, with Solomon using more and more attacks to try to defeat the users.

Eventually, the wires binding Solomon to the arena were destroyed, thanks mostly to Egg and Nightmare. Though Salty was weak, he continued to try and produce upgrade engines to aid in the final stretch. Seeing his opening, Henry jumped onto Solomon's back, prying his head from the armor and eventually succeeding with help from Elliot.

With Solomon reverted to Wrench, Henry removed the chips from the Paladin Armor S-001, allowing the users to do as they wished to Wrench as things went back to normal - well, almost.

Trivia

 * This is the first time an RP event has been a major boss fight against another user, as typically such things are reserved as Special Battles rather than roleplays.
 * Lord of Metal's defeat resulted in the unlocking of the 5th Fighter Slot.
