After defeating and killing these Consecrated Beasts, everyone turned their attention to the passage leading to the next floor...
The door remained tightly shut, showing no sign of opening, and everyone knew things wouldn’t be that simple...
Soon after, an anomaly occurred: the bodies of the Consecrated Beasts that had already been defeated suddenly began moving again.
"What? Weren’t those Consecrated Beasts already defeated? Why do they seem to be reviving now?" Paimon asked, astonished and incredulous.
Klee looked puzzled, thinking aloud:
"These monsters are called Consecrated Beasts, so does that mean they’re actually skeletons and can’t die?"
"No, it shouldn’t be like that..." Aether explained to Klee, "They’re called Consecrated Beasts because they consume corpses, not because they themselves are corpses..."
Su Yuan looked at the scene with a grave expression and said, "Could it be that the meaning of the path of death on this floor is that these Consecrated Beasts will keep reviving, like the Ruins Guards?"
"If that’s really the case, then that might actually be a good thing..." Eula said, "These Consecrated Beasts aren’t particularly hard to deal with. As long as this revival isn’t unlimited, we might really be able to all safely clear the fifth floor!"
"No, this doesn’t seem like ordinary revival..."
Lisa’s expression grew very serious as she looked at the Consecrated Beasts writhing not far ahead and said:
"These Consecrated Beasts now... seem to be undergoing some kind of fusion."
"Fusion?" At Lisa’s words, everyone present looked puzzled...
However, Lisa had once been an outstanding scholar at the Sumeru Academia, so her judgment naturally had merit...
Sure enough, after some time, everyone was astonished to discover that these defeated Consecrated Beasts were indeed fusing together!
Consecrated Beasts Red Hawk: I’ll form the right hand!
Consecrated Beasts Scorpion: I’ll form the left hand!
Consecrated Beasts Flying Serpent: I’ll form the right leg!
Consecrated Beasts Fang Beast: I’ll form the left leg!
Consecrated Beasts Horned Crocodile: I’ll form the head!
Immediately, a massive and bizarrely shaped fused Consecrated Beast appeared before everyone!
Su Yuan looked at this creature, an indescribable premonition forming in his mind.
He thought that perhaps if they could defeat this fused Consecrated Beast, they could finally advance to the next floor.
"Pathetic Consecrated Beasts, even fused together, are still nothing more than a disorganized rabble!"
Clorinde said, stepping forward first, drawing her one-handed sword and aiming it at the fused Consecrated Beast.
She declared: "Come, face me in an honorable duel!!!"
The fused Consecrated Beast, naturally not refusing Clorinde’s challenge, effectively accepted it.
"Clorinde" immediately entered the Eerie state, her body erupting with powerful Eerie energy!
Then, "Clorinde" drew her paired gun and unleashed rapid, continuous, and fierce shots at the fused Consecrated Beast.
However, the thunder bullets infused with Eerie energy, upon hitting the fused Consecrated Beast, only produced some smoke and caused no real damage...
Everyone watching frowned in concern...
Could it be that this fused Consecrated Beast, after merging, had its defense significantly increased?
But in the next moment, it became clear to everyone that the fused Consecrated Beast hadn’t just enhanced its defense...
At a speed none could react to, the fused Consecrated Beast became a blur and launched a direct attack on "Clorinde"!
Even someone as battle-hardened as "Clorinde" couldn’t react in time.
Using the left hand formed from the Consecrated Beasts Scorpion, the beast struck her abdomen with brutal force, sending her flying!
"Clorinde" landed on the distant ground, and dark purple veins began to appear across her skin and expression...
"Oh no, Clorinde has been poisoned!" Sigewinne said with deep concern.
"Everyone, be careful! The toxicity of this fused Consecrated Beast seems to have multiplied many times over!"
Everyone present now stared gravely at the fused Consecrated Beastbefore them...
Everyone could sense it: the strength of this fused Consecrated Beast was not a simple 1+1+1+1+1=5...
Its speed was extreme, its defense and attack were high, and its strikes carried lethal poison!
"You dare to harm Miss Clorinde, a guest who has come all the way from Fontaine to Mondstadt?!"
Eula, without hesitation or fear, drew her greatsword and faced the fused Consecrated Beast, declaring:
"I will remember this grudge!!!"
"Ah... something feels wrong, it’s time to sleep..." Sayu curled up, preparing to enter sleep mode.
"The other me... everything is in your hands..."
"Fused Consecrated Beast, Qiqi will defeat you..." Qiqi also closed her eyes, pointing to her forehead as she set a command on herself...
In short, all the Eerie-transformed combatants among the group prepared to trigger their conditions, entering their Eerie states to face this powerful fused Consecrated Beast.
Su Yuan and Aether knew that although this fused Consecrated Beast was strong, it shouldn’t be absolutely unbeatable...
This time, everyone should be able to advance to the next floor together!!!
...
But the outcome was completely unexpected for Aether and Su Yuan...
Looking at the floor stained with blood and littered with corpses, they couldn’t understand why so many people, unleashing such intense attacks, still couldn’t harm the fused Consecrated Beast in the slightest...
Its defenses couldn’t even be broken—how could they fight it?
"Su Yuan, looks like this time... you lost the gamble," Aether said with a sigh, glancing at Su Yuan.
"Aji really didn’t lie to us. A path of death is a path of death... impossible to surpass, impossible to defeat..." Su Yuan also sighed.
In the next moment, as if prearranged, Aether and Su Yuan charged at the fused Consecrated Beast, one after the other, in a Death Rush!!!
Aether was bitten through the neck by the Consecrated Beasts Fang Beast, while Su Yuan was burned to charred ashes by the flames of the Consecrated Beasts Crimson Hawk...
