Summoning the enchanted boar was out of the question; even with Howard’s decent foundational attributes, it would be hard to pit the enchanted boar against such a BOSS-level creature.
Therefore, Howard remained silent, merely maneuvering the firedragon to relentlessly unleash its skills.
At this moment, a barrage of firedragon’s abilities followed one after another; the flames sometimes transformed into circles, sometimes exploded, constantly scorching the body of the Fusion Test Subject.
Even if its tentacles could resist the flames, they couldn’t shield its entire body; the eyeballs on its shoulders and its bizarre hands began to warp under the fire’s assault.
“Hmm?!”
Noticing this, Caitlin immediately shouted, “The creature’s weak point is the eyes on its shoulders! Quick, everyone target its eyes!”
As her voice fell, not just Caitlin’s subordinates, but even the students of the elite team started to ready their bows and arrows or lift their wands, all focusing on the Fusion Test Subject’s eyes.
Howard didn’t hesitate; he directly controlled the firedragon to breathe a torrent of fire towards the eyes on its shoulders.
In almost an instant, a myriad of skills and feathered arrows descended upon the eyes.
In a split second, the Fusion Test Subject began to twitch all over, appearing to be in extreme pain.
Its tentacles flailed wildly as its eyes blinked, suddenly shooting out a beam of purple light towards the many students.
How could Howard allow the Fusion Test Subject to harm Abby?
With a mere thought, the firedragon descended, colliding its body, formed of concentrated flames, with the purple beam.
“Wind’s Melody·Extreme Kill!”
A sudden cold shout resounded as Caitlin noticed the weakened state of the eye on the shoulder after emitting the purple beam.
Mobilizing all her strength, she fiercely hurled her blade.
Accompanied by a sound tearing through the air, the flying blade seemed to rip through space, ruthlessly piercing through the Fusion Test Subject’s eye. .
“Roar!”
With its shoulder-eye pierced, the Fusion Test Subject let out a piercing roar.
Its massive body half-knelt on the ground, shivering uncontrollably, immobilized.
“Good opportunity!”
“It seems unable to move after its eye got injured.”
Excited, Caitlin instructed, “Everyone, attack now!”
“No, Caitlin, look closely, the eyes of the Fusion Test Subject seem to be regenerating.”
Glyn’s words sent a shock through everyone.
On closer inspection, indeed, the pierced eye of the Fusion Test Subject was enveloped in a liquid, mending the wound actively.
“Then speed it up!”
Caitlin rapidly sprinted to where her weapon had landed, picking up her blade.
She surrounded herself with wind blades, becoming like a phantom persistently swooping past the Fusion Test Subject, her sharp blade continuously chopping into it.
Glyn was chanting spells, conjuring streaks of lightning one after another, ceaselessly bombarding the Fusion Test Subject.
Howard’s firedragon went further, ensnaring the Fusion Test Subject entirely, its sharp claws relentlessly tearing through its chest and flesh.
The flames spewed from its mouth scalded the entire being of the Fusion Test Subject.
Even those tentacles that could resist burning began to weaken.
The HP of the Fusion Test Subject dropped at an incredible pace.
Fortunately, in just a span of a few breaths, the white fluid had fully repaired its pierced shoulder eye.
A roar emerged from within it, but alas, at this moment, the Fusion Test Subject was completely entangled by the firedragon, incapable of moving.
Seizing the opportunity, Caitlin leapt vigorously once again.
This time, instead of throwing her blade, she held it, fiercely thrusting it into the eye.
The just-recovered Fusion Test Subject hadn’t had time to exhibit any skills before its eye was torn apart again, much like fabric under the blade.
After all, Caitlin, who had awakened an S-level talent, delivered a full-force strike that it simply couldn’t withstand!
Not to mention, Glyn and Caitlin were classmates, having fought side by side numerous times, their coordination was highly tacit, and the erupting lightning had already paralyzed the Fusion Test Subject on the spot.
One could say Caitlin’s strike met no resistance.
If this couldn’t be effective, Caitlin thought she might as well buy a cheese and kill herself with it.
Thus, the freshly recovered Fusion Test Subject fell to the ground once more.
Howard’s firedragon, along with Caitlin and Glyn, launched a frenzied assault.
Hearing the continuous alert prompts in their ears, they worried that more formidable guardians would appear later on.
Fortunately, until the Fusion Test Subject’s HP was completely depleted and its entire body disintegrated, no new BOSS descended.
[Ding dong! Congratulations to the awakened Howard; your team successfully defeated the Gold BOSS — Fusion Test Subject, gaining 50,000 experience points!]
A substantial reward in experience points fell, and the levels of all the members of the elite team, including Howard, were elevated.
The corpse of the Fusion Test Subject lay heavily on the ground.
The tentacles and eyes had already detached from its head, lying dry and withered on the ground while the body returned to its normal state.
Even the sealed gate had opened, seemingly allowing them to leave at any time.
However, at this very moment, no one paid attention to the Fusion Test Subject; instead, they rushed towards the place where the potions were stored.
This time, the glass cover slowly opened, revealing the potions inside.
Glyn quickly stowed them in his backpack, then looked around cautiously, carefully assessing the surroundings.
“Phew, it’s all clear now.”
“We shouldn’t linger here for too long. Let’s hurry up and leave. Once we are out, we can divide these potions!” Glyn was eager to depart, feeling an unexplainable sense of oppression in his heart even though the Fusion Test Subject was already dead.
“What’s the rush?”
“First, let’s see what loot this Fusion Test Subject can give us!”
“This is a Gold BOSS, the rewards certainly won’t be shabby!”
Caitlin, rolling her eyes in disdain, responded, “Since when have you become so timid?”
“Me, timid?” Glyn replied through gritted teeth. “The extraplanar creature must be in the ruins, yet it hasn’t shown itself. I don’t believe it hasn’t detected our presence!”
It must be said, Glyn’s words brought a sense of doubt to Caitlin.
Indeed, extraplanar creatures were known for their murderous tendencies, always chasing after the human race to kill upon their arrival.
Considering the limited size of these ruins, it was unlikely they hadn’t encountered one in all this time.
“Forget it, let’s not look at the loot anymore. Retreat quickly! Let’s go with Glyn.” Realizing something was amiss, Caitlin promptly called the many servants to follow her and Glyn out.
However, just as everyone was about to leave, a sudden cry of alarm emerged from within the elite team!
At the abrupt strange noise, Howard and the others couldn’t help but turn their heads, their pupils sharply contracting in the next instant.
What’s more, a surge of purple light emerged, engulfing everyone in an instant!
