This monster had been designed to protect him when he could not protect himself. Right now, the immortal king was weaker. Unable to maintain the strength he had when trapped within the tower of the undead ruined city. That didn\'t mean that midnight gave up when her claws did not cut through the fur and skin of the zombified saber cat. Isnetad, she channeled mana through her body and brought her claws to flames. The idea that they could damage the fur was not bad, but if anyone thought this was her plan, they would be fools. Remey had dashed in to battle too, and the flames were for her to use. The flames sparked up around the saber cat\'s body, the tough fur and skin would have resisted the fire since the monster had been built to resist all forms of physical and magical attacks. That was the benefit of having a great many years to experiment and rebuild the body itself. However, Remey could wield much hotter flames. Her defense breaking fish was a brutal orange, nearly starting to turn white as she absorbed Midnight\'s dragon flames and punched inwards. This forced the super heated fire mana in to the body of the zombified saber cat making a large burned patch on its fur. While it did not feel pain, this was a great deal of damage to the underlying musculature around its left shoulder. It also wasn\'t just sitting there being attacked like a punching bag. It had swiped its claws toward Midnight then Remey forcing them to leap back and dodge the dangerous attacks. Without natural limiters, this zombied was able to cut through their defenses, but not Su\'s. The twin shields slamming together were somewhat disorienting to the zombified saber cat, a skill that Su had learned along with taunting while using that sound. But her shield charge had a lot more weight behind it since she was in full armor. meeting the claw attacks head on, pushed the zombified saber cat off its balance, enough that with a follow up attack from Midnight who charged forward and threw her entire body weight on to the rubs of the zombie, it fell to the side. The perfect chance for Remey to deal another heavy defense breaking fist. The flames had condensed around Remey\'s fist yet again, this time though, the flames were a slower deeper red. Similar to alchemy flames, Walker could sense that it was being used to break down the bones within the zombie. Battling like this tapped in to what Remey knew about materials for making potions. She had seen potions that failed to use monster bones, even dragon bones. Some taboo alchemy even used the bones of still living people. Yet, from learning this taboo knowledge, Remey had learned that she could use this in her battles. She was an alchemical brawler, therefore, she fought hand to hand. If she could sense flame specifically targeting certain aspects of a body, she could deal worse damage. It was the same as using a poison potion that she had made, but using it with her mana. The punch broke through the tough fur and skin yet again, this time though, the burst of fire was slow. A slight smoke and embering appearance where her fist had struck only caused a momentary struggle as the zombified saber cat righted itself before lunging at her. The vicious bite seemingly cutting in to the light mana \'\'ground\'\' cueing a disruption in the direct flow of light mana. "Back up, the fangs it has came from a dragon, it\'s more dangerous after being altered by the immortal king." With Su\'s order, Remey got behind her to avoid the next attack. The shouting from Su and the movements of Remey to hide were enough to make the zombified saber cat forget Midnight for the moment. Perfect for Midnight to breathe a large ball of dragon fire at the wound that Remey had just made. The smoldering just increased as the alchemy flames that Remey had set were targeted at the tough bones. Able to burn them slowly like charcoal. Midnight just increased that process with her precise usage of dragon fire in the form of a large ball to strike that exact point. With the next moment, Su split the twin shields apart again and went more on the offensive. She had just deflected on claw strike and knew that the lunging motion would be an attempted bite from the zombified saber cat. She had taken note of its movements and prepared herself to use that against it. One twin shield slammed in to the ground giving her an anchor, the light mana that was pulled up was all due to the light shield skill that Su had trained. But what was new, was that she was activating it on two separate shields. The twin shield she had in the ground of the light elemental plane was just holding her in place while drawing additional light mana. The other twin shield had been covered in light to strengthen its defenses. In turn, that strengthened her attack as she slashed forward with additional weight. The lunging bite of the zombified saber cat went right in to contact with the light coated shield Su prepared as her attack and defense. Its lower jaw couldn\'t handle the pressure though. With that, the problem of its biting them had been dealt with. A slight smolder also escaped the turn off area of its face. Proving that the alchemy flames Remey had forced in to its body were still slowly burning away with the singular material, the dragon bones, as its fuel. A vicious form of attack against an even more vicious opponent. Meanwhile, Walker and Gil had been firing powerful arrows. The skeletons warriors pushing the poison dragon in to more rage were hard for Gil to completely defeat with a single arrow. Their bones were more condensed through various forms of experimentation that the immortal king had done. Hence why he had fewer skeleton warriors like this than skeletons he was experimenting on. An arrow hitting their skull would only crack it and disrupt their movements. Not that it was just doing that, the poison dragon was able to use that to attack them and crush them entirely. Its poison and physical might was striking them down fairly easily with Gil\'s assistance. Not that it realized it was being helped, it was enraged, logic had no place here. Walker was also releasing heavy arrows with multiple manas covering them. He started by releasing various fire arrows toward the immortal king and the undead protecting him. Specifically targeting the skeletons he was using to experiment on and creating unique skeletons to block them. The more that he destroyed them, the less resistance the immortal king could put up. The immortal king did not take kindly to this. The large undead it had been riding was quick to spit up a larger number of skeletons. These were more unique though. They appeared to be layered with something. \'Shedding lizard man

This undead is a unique undead that was created from an ancient tribe of the lizard man monster race known for living within swamps. While they had little intelligence, they were able to form tribes. During their weakest time in life though, they would shed their skin and grow slightly. The undead were captured alive and forced to continue this process as zombies. The skeletal remains on their bodies are bones from fellow ancient lizardmen made to act as a first defensive covering for their bodies. The more damage they received, the more that these skeletal bones are shed off, then the skin, and then the final skeleton. This three stage undead would be immensely tough to fight since they are extremely aggressive along with being very hard to defeat within one strike. They are very resistant to water mana and also heavily resistant to fire mana. This is due to…\'

Walker didn\'t need to worry about the resistances. He saw the twenty shedding lizard man undead and prepared to use a larger attack with the eternal codex in bow form. He had some of Gil\'s arrows too after all.  …
