Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 618: Chimera

Group 9 consisted of 3 different people.

The leader was a swordsman, who seemed to hold quite a high sword skill.

Of the other two members, one was a buffed-up man that used a long sledgehammer as his weapon.

The last member was a girl whose powers Ning couldn't tell from the screens. But, according to Drake, it had to do something with shadow and darkness.

The leader held his sword next to him and sat down on the ground to close his eyes and cultivate.

Qi flowed through the air and gathered around him at an incredible speed as he cultivated.

The other two also sat down to gather as much energy as they could before it was time to fight the next monster.

The man held his sledgehammer in front of him as he gathered the Essence of force from the surrounding. Unlike his home planet, this place had every and all Essence flying through the air.

So, circulating his path in this location was much easier than back at home. As such, he wanted to win this whole thing and reincarnate in a location that was just like this.

Finally, the girl was strengthening her Willpower. As she gathered more and more Willpower from the surrounding, her mind grew and so did her ability the Willpower granted.

The 3 of them cultivated for almost 10 minutes before the lich was to appear again.

When it was time, they opened their eyes and waited. As they did, the monster appeared, but it was no lich.

What appeared was a giant monster with a large body. Its skin was covered in tough scales, and its leg was almost as thick as the tower itself.

On top of all 4 legs, its body reached almost 20 meters high. That was without mentioning the 5 different heads on its body, each with a neck of at least 10 meters long.

It's tail was perhaps longer than that too.

From what the contestants could tell, it was 5 snakes, attached to the body of an elephant that was covered in dragon skin, followed by a long snake tail with a thing at the end that rattled as it moved.

The swordsman looked at the beige-colored monster and frowned. "What monstrosity is this?" he asked.

"I don't know," the man said. "If we removed the body, I would say a Hydra, but with it, it's hard to tell."

"So it's a chimera," the girl said as she stared at the monster. "Two or more monsters that are mixed together."

"Seems like it," the man said.

"If that is so then let's kill it quickly," the man said. "It shouldn't be much stronger than the—"

Before the man could finish, one of the monster's snakehead opened up and suddenly fire spewed out of it.

The swordsman responded quickly and took to the skies. The girl created a dark circle under her feet and grabbed the man with the hammer before dropping into it.

When she appeared, she was behind the monster. Then, she turned to look at the damage the monster had done.

Half of the ground that they had been standing on was missing. It was like a meteor had hit the ground and destroyed the area.

"Holy fuck! That is a strong monster," the girl said absentmindedly. Her attention only returned back to her when she heard the hammer slam into the monster's legs.

The girl managed to see the last faint light of the giant hammer that had struck the monster as it dissipated back into the hammer.

At the same time, the swordsman dove down from the sky and sent a massive slash onto one of the snake's necks.

The hammer managed to do no damage to the monster as the dragon scales blocked all the damage. However, the swordsman was so strong that he managed to cut off the rightmost neck of the monster.

"Yes!" the girl shouted and immediately used her skills as well. Strands of black goo released from the dark ground underneath the monster and wrapped around all of its necks.

As it moved, the strands of darkness split off, but more and more appeared to replace them. Soon, the monster was constricted.

She held it there and looked at the dead snakehead on the floor. Just as she did, she heard sounds of exclamation from both of her male teammates.

"Goddammit!" the man with the hammer cried out. "It is a Hydra."

She looked up just in time to see the cut-off neck of the monster slowly grow and split into 2 separate parts as the one head became two.

Suddenly, both of the heads opened their mouth and attacked.

A tornado appeared around the monster, ripping away at anything and everything around them.

The ground, the trees, everything was crushed, turned to dust.

The swordsman in the air was a strong cultivator, so he didn't need to worry about being damaged by mere winds. The same went for the man who walked the path of force on the ground.

The girl, however, wasn't strong enough to survive such an attack. So, she immediately disappeared into the dark pool that appeared beneath her and reappeared a distance away.

From there, she could see that it wasn't just a tornado. Air slices were being sent all around them.

The girl quickly made a sticky wall of darkness and hid behind it. She only got out when the attack no longer came.

When the wall disappeared, she saw that the two men were already attacking the monster.

So, she too created a bow out of darkness and pulled it as a dark arrow formed onto it.

The moment she let go, another one of the chimera's heads used power.

Suddenly, the ground beneath her shuddered and everything got heavy all of a sudden. Very, very heavy.

The girl could feel the increased gravity around her and even saw the swordsman struggle to fly.

The man with the hammer, however, continued to attack, albeit very useless against the tough monster.

Her own arrow fell victim to the gravity and fell into the crater in front of her.

"Dammit! Fire, Wind, and Earth. 3 of its head can already use 3 different types of powers," she grunted. "What can the other two do then?"
