The origin is from the noun, mercenary. A mercenary is someone who will carry out combat missions but aren't part of an official organization, like the military, or CIA and are usually not motivated by justice or an allegiance. (They are usually motivated by profit) Activities associated with these "rogue agents" or "guns for hire" usually involve violence, and often killing.
So the slang verb "merc" generally means to perpetrate violence, usually killing, but can just mean to beat someone up (usually to teach them a lesson/send a message). Or it can be used figuratively, as in, "that mc just got straight merc'd in that rap battle". Similar figurative expressions could be, "Man, he just got smoked!", "Dude, you totally slaughtered that guy", "Yo, she schooled that chick", "When my boy rocks the mic, he be killin' any sucka mc that steps to him".
Like many slang terms, there is an original way to spell it and variations on spelling that can become widely accepted (it is slang after all, so normal grammar rules do not necessarily apply). Merc is the origin spelling, whereas murc, murk, merk, etc are alternates. Like some people write murda instead of murder, dood instead of dude, or dat instead of that.

A semi-famous gaming clan that has played multiple MMOs (such as UO and Darkfall Online). They are a bunch of power gamer scrubs who will power grind their characters to the max, dominate everyone else with said characters, then proceed to claim victory and quit the game before everyone else has a chance to catch up. They suck in FPS games in which character development is not a factor, and will continue to bare the biggest undeserved egos in the history of gaming clans. If you encounter a merc outside of an MMO, rest assured that you can, and you will, shit on him.
Osium from The Mercs is a scrubby douchebag, but when you challenge him to a fight he redirects you to his peons to fight for him. He does all the shit talking though.
