The battle-hardened mercenary responded in an instant—she held her greatsword across her chest, aiming her blade in the direction of the claws, and dodging as far back as she could. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The claws slammed against the blade with a loud tooth-aching sound. To her disbelief, the obsidian greatsword, which was reinforced by magic, was actually broken a little by this blow. Before she could adjust her posture, the beast's right arm followed, striking directly at the side of the greatsword.

This time, Lily experienced Sean's previous feelings. An almost unconscionable force threw her backwards, knocking over Amberly in her path and slamming it directly against the wall of the hallway.

She coughed twice in pain, braced herself with her greatsword, and quickly surveyed the 'creature' in appearance.

It's hard to say what it is. It was nearly three meters tall and about the same width, with a head that resembled a gas-filled sarcoma, with no nose in sight, but four glowing red eyes and a large bloody mouth.

It wields two unusually thick limbs, the one on the left with four sharp claws at the tip; Its body is supported by six slightly thinner limbs, some resembling the lower limbs of a human, others resembling the legs of a dog or a horse.

If you look closely, you can see some useless organs stretching out from the monster's body. The ape's slender front paws, for example, appear to belong to the red rump of a baboon - and they are long on the chest, and the soft tail that seems to be that of a feline beast.

The monster rushed to the door and tried to smash through the wall with its two forelegs - the door was still too small for it to be more than three meters tall. The exterior walls of the laboratory were indeed sturdy, and although a little white substance had been chiseled off by the claws from time to time, there was no sign of shattering.

But Lily knew very well that the wall alone would never last long, after all, it was just a dead thing.

"Magic Fusion Monster, or the undead version...... Why is this kind of thing happening? Lynn flapped her golden wings and floated into the air, staring cautiously at the monster with an unusually bad face. She tried to cast a spell that hit the guy with magic and nothing worked.

"It's impossible to use spells to quiet it...... Be careful, it may have all sorts of strange derivative abilities—"

The monster turned its head, as if to survey the tiny creatures outside the gate. It paused its attempts to break the wall, and at the same time, a long, narrow slit cracked open from its abdomen, turning into a large dented mouth. The jaw slammed inward, and a pungent dark brown slime shot out and shot straight over everyone's heads.

A translucent emerald green curtain unfurls above the front of the exploration team, just enough to block the disgusting liquid. The wizard of the Elnar whispered a incantation, causing the curtain to shrink into a ball and toss it into the room where the monster was.

Alphonse raised his right arm, and a dark green flame ignited from his palm again, turning into a ray of light, right in the middle of the huge mouth in his abdomen that had not yet closed. The monster trembled in pain, and the flames of magic pierced its body, burning for about ten seconds, leaving a huge cavity half a meter in diameter.

"It didn't achieve the expected effect, and the opponent's magic resistance was too high." Alphons' eyes flickered rapidly, "Analyze the solution." ”

Anyway, a few more times will do. Before Lily could utter her words, she saw a myriad of tiny flesh sprouts stretching out from all sides of the hollow, intertwining and twisting together, converging into new muscles, internal organs, and skin - and it would only take a dozen seconds for the hollow to fully return to its original shape.

What the hell is this—Lily thought through gritted teeth. She had seen many monsters that could regenerate, such as the most famous trolls, but none of them could heal such a serious wound in an instant.

"Lilianor, do you want to use mana amplification?" The Organizer turned to the mercenary and asked for her opinion.

The mercenary shook her head and replied in the negative. In the current situation, the situation is not critical. Although the fusion monster was strong, it didn't have much sanity, and it wasn't a real threat. It's just that the tough body, combined with the ability to regenerate itself, makes killing it quite a tricky task.

"Would it be useful to close the door?" She yelled at Yuffe, "Isn't there some protection?" ”

"It should be." The girl replied quickly, "But you can't close the door at all, someone needs to lure her away!" ”

Lily raised the corners of her mouth, she turned to look at Amberly, and the two exchanged an affirmative look.

"Take our sword!" The mercenary scurried towards the Fusion, dodging under its arms with agility and slashing its hind limbs with a sword—not doing much damage, but enough to attract its attention. Then she took a few steps back and took a defiant stance.

The monster looked out the door, then stared back at Lily, as if hesitating which side to target.

A low roar rang out. Taking advantage of the other party's distraction, Amberly turned into a white bear and pounced on the monster, knocking it off the head. She struggled to squeeze through the door, past the fusion monster who was trying to get up, and ran to the corner of the lab without looking back.

The Fusion Monster didn't hesitate this time. It let out a scream of rage - it sounded like a wild donkey that had been pricked in the buttocks, and rushed towards the white bear like a cannonball.

"It's coming, be careful!" Lily shouted.

Amberly spun to the side, and the monster roared, waving its right arm across her back, ripping off a large chunk of blood-soaked fur - and slamming headfirst against the wall at the end. The whole lab seemed to be shaking.

"You've ruined my pretty hair!" Amber cried out in pain, "I will never spare you!" ”

The white bear slammed its paws to the ground and let out a low roar. Brown thorns extended from under her claws and climbed up the monster's body, slightly restricting its movements.

Not far away, the wizard of the Elna walked up to the door and held out an index finger to the monster. Magic converged on the top of its head, and a viscous, cobweb-like white mass exploded, trapping it entirely.

The Fusion Monster seemed to feel threatened, and its body began to become transparent, and Lily could vaguely see it turn around, and neither the thorns nor the cobwebs could hinder its movements.

However, the machine man is one step ahead of it. A pale blue translucent field unfolded in front of Amberly, stretching from the ground to the zenith. The next moment, the fusion monster slammed headlong into the formless and textureless wall, revealing itself once again.

"The force field has a limited capacity." Alphonse raised his voice, "Lilianor, hurry up. ”

The mercenary turned and rushed to the door with Amberly, closing it with her hand. Lynn and Yuffie immediately ran to the door and activated the protection on it again. The runes on the door slowly lit up, meaning it could no longer be opened from the inside.

The group stopped in front of the door and heard the noise inside for a few moments, and finally regained calm.
