Lorne quickly moved forward and quickly entered the target area.
In front of him was a huge poisonous pool. The dark green poison covered the entire area. There were the skeletons of unknown monsters and rotting corpses floating inside.
Before he could investigate the surrounding terrain, countless huge bubbles bubbled out of the poisonous pool. The air was filled with a disgusting stench.
Lorne stepped back, his eyes on the turbulent lake.
The bubbles became more and more concentrated, and the commotion became greater and greater.
At this moment, the poisonous pool was suddenly stirred. A hideous bone claw reached out and touched the pitch-black ground.
Splash!
The poisonous pool churned as a huge head that looked like a catfish popped out.
This huge head was already mostly rotting. There were three holes in the rotting white bones, and scarlet soul flames were flickering inside. The other half of the head was filled with poisonous lumps and rotting flesh, and there were three blood-red eyes embedded on it.
It was then that Lorne saw the creature’s overall appearance.
It was a huge Salamander monster. Because it had died for many years, its entire body was rotting.
It had four white bone arms that were on its left and right. The sharp spiky bones on the back of its head reached all the way to the end of its tail. Other than the stench, there was also the yellow-white fangs in its mouth.

From the attributes on the interface, it could be seen that the health of this Boss was much lower than that of the Slime King who attacked the village.
However, 45,000 health points was still the players’ nightmare.
Last time, it was the thousands of players in the Beginner Village who attacked the Boss together. This time, it was only a five-person team.
Comparatively, it was harder this time.
Moreover, this Boss’ attack power was higher than the Slime King. Its attack limit was 370 points. As long as it used its skill, it could kill any non-tank professional player.
Unfortunately…
The boss encountered Lorne.
“Rimuru!”
Without hesitation, Lorne commanded his pets to attack.
Although Rimuru was only Level 5, it was a Bronze-Grade Boss that had been created through merging. It now had 112,500 health points. It was not something an ordinary Boss could compare to.
Pfft—
Rimuru spat out a ball of mucus and hit the boss’s head.
-205!
Rimuru was created by merging with a potion. Its combat strength was very limited, so the single damage was not high.
But at that moment, fiery flames flew behind it.
It was a combo attack from the Fire of Death—Rapid Fire.
Very luckily, it dealt the highest possible six hits.
-295!
-81 (Magic Damage)
-293!
-79 (Magic Damage)
…
The defense of the Salamander Boss was 150 points, but against Small Artillery who had 455 attack points, these defense points were useless.
A series of numbers appeared, instantly dealing a terrifying damage of 1880 points.
If his other teammates saw this scene, they would probably be stunned on the spot.
Such damage was too terrifying.
“Roar!”
The Salamander King roared.
After the high defense was broken, the grudge between the two sides was completely drawn.
It charged forward angrily, its huge claws striking Rimuru’s body, tearing half of it apart.
-335
+55 (Absorb)
The damage of a high-level Boss was terrifying, but Rimuru did not feel anything.
With 112,500 HP, such damage was nothing more than a tickle.
On the other hand, the ferocious attacks of Little Mantis and Small Artillery made the Salamander King unable to hold on.
Although Little Mantis’s quality was slightly low, its attack power was almost the same as Small Artillery because it was Level 10.
Moreover, it had a high armor-piercing effect. The total damage output was the highest in the entire team. The Level 4 Small Artillery could not outdo it for the time being.
As for the minotaur, it was in an awkward spot.
Its attributes were useless on this battlefield.
After all, they were facing a powerful Boss. It was normal that it could not deal direct damage.
Pew! Pew! Pew!
The arrow struck the Boss crazily.
At the same time, the sickle-like forearm was waved by the mantis, creating countless illusions that slashed at the rotting flesh of the Salamander King.
Its health decreased very quickly. In less than ten seconds, its health had already decreased by 10,000 points.
Under Rimuru’s interference, the Salamander King could barely counterattack. It could only roar angrily and vent its anger.
At this moment, as the leader, Lorne stood around and calmly looked at the pleasing scene.
This was the correct way to fight as a Summoner.
There was no need for the master to take action. The pets could do it in minutes.
However…
He had to think about something else now.
That was the problem of synthesis.
The monster in front of him was a powerful Boss. If he took it as a pet, it would definitely allow his strength to increase greatly.
But Lorne thought it was too ugly.
Take the undead archer, for example. Although it was rotting, it was still a humanoid monster, Lorne quite liked the undead style it had.
However, the Salamander King was different.
It was covered in poisonous lumps and pustules, looking very disgusting.
The stench coming from its body made people feel despair as well.
To be honest, Lorne rejected it from the bottom of his heart.
What made him hesitate was the attributes of the Boss-level monster. If he merged such a powerful material, it would definitely be even stronger.
Should he do it or not?
This was a conflicted choice.
