"Did she just sacrifice her left arm to block that attack?" Selena muttered, looking at her left arm. Even though the alien had a high regenerative ability, it didn't seem the left arm was recovering. It was as if the symbiote had completely abandoned that left arm.
'Is their regenerative ability limited? Or does the alien focus her regenerative ability elsewhere? For example, the inside…' Selena squinted her eyes, observing.
The answer came soon as the alien charged forward. The alien speed was actually slower than before. No, if the alien was fine, she would have gone straight at her, using the dust cloud as a smokescreen.
It seemed her attack was working. However, she didn't know whether her remaining Ena would be enough to kill her.
Since the alien's physical ability had decreased, Sasha was able to intercept her on the way, her claws clashing with the alien's blade.
Risa surrounded her with blood spears, which were released the moment Sasha stopped her completely.
The alien raised her head and raised her right arm before making a circular motion. The blood spears rained her down, most of them getting knocked off, but some actually piercing her body.
The alien looked frustrated, so this must mean an opportunity. And Yin Zhen wouldn't let go of that opportunity.
He came straight from behind, his feet blazing with an enormous amount of Ena.
"Tiger—!" Yin Zhen was supposed to hit her, but to his surprise, the alien suddenly turned around and slashed his neck.
Yin Zhen was able to avoid it by tilting his body sideways, but that also made his target change from her head to her side.
To his surprise, a U-shaped blade appeared from within her body. Yin Zhen ended up kicking this sharp blade.
If not for him training his feet until it became as hard as a steel, he would have lost his foot in this kick.
Still, the kick was connected and blew the alien away.
Selena followed right after, smashing the alien with a sweeping force from above.
The sweeping force knocked her down and pinned her to the ground, but the alien stood up as if the sweeping force didn't exist.
"Watch out! The alien—" Before Yin Zhen could warn Selena, the alien had charged toward her.
Sasha was the closest one to her, so she hurriedly moved in her way and struck her blade to stop her.
But that was the time the alien did the unthinkable. A blade formed from inside her body, piercing through her own stomach and hitting Sasha.
"!!!" Sasha widened her eyes in shock.
"Sasha?!" Risa waved her hand while Selena released another sweeping force.
Seeing the blood spears, the alien chose to ignore the sweeping force. The blades on her feet impaled the ground so that the sweeping force only blew away Sasha, not her.
After that, she swung her blades, neutralizing all the blood spears.
"Sasha!" Selena had reached Sasha and checked her condition.
"I'm sorry." Sasha gnashed her teeth.
If Selena had expected it, she would probably recall Sasha before that blade piercing her stomach.
However, it was surprising that the alien would have something up her sleeve. No, it was more accurate that the alien was saving this from the beginning.
Selena looked at the alien while biting her lips. 'I have underestimated her. That's right. Even though it's called the queen, it doesn't resemble an alien, except for that dark symbiote skin and the blades on all four limbs. Its body isn't deformed like the alien…'
Risa and Yin Zhen were stopping the aliens for the time being, so Selena made a decision.
"Are you going to be fine?" Selena asked.
"Yes. I can still recover from this, but I'm afraid I'm unable to fight anymore." Sasha nodded. "I'm sorry."
"No, it's fine. Thanks to you, we're able to figure out her trick. Rest well." Selena shook her head as she recalled Sasha.
That blade inside her confirmed one thing. The reason the alien used its left arm to block her all-out attack was because it was protecting the symbiote inside her body. In other words, those blades.
If she wanted to win, she had to destroy the blades inside her body, even if it meant using all her strength.
Selena took a deep breath.
With Yin Zhen and Risa being a bit more careful, Selena had to lead the battle.
When the alien struck Risa with her blade, she summoned more blades, but Risa was able to fly away before it reached her.
Yin Zhen came from the right, kicking her with full force in order to push her away from Risa.
However, Selena suddenly swept the alien from the opposite direction, stopping the alien in its place.
"!!!" Yin Zhen was confused as to why Selena stopped him, but before he could think of a reason, the avatar caught the alien.
Risa formed blood spears, targeting the alien as soon as it broke free. Yin Zhen was also ready underneath the giant arms.
Selena looked like she was about to throw the alien to the ground, but all of a sudden, the avatar disappeared.
"!!!" Not only Selena's familiars, but the alien was also surprised since they expected an impact.
But this was fine. At the very least, Risa was able to fire her spears.
The aliens knocked most of them by spinning her body, but some pierced her body as the alien fell to the ground. The alien's focus was on the ground, since Yin Zhen was more dangerous.
The moment she turned her body to the ground, she found Yin Zhen's shocked face as he actually fled from the area.
A giant sphere formed above her. Now that she had used all the momentum to spin her body, she wouldn't have enough time to turn around and block this attack.
Selena dropped the sphere right on top of her back, causing a massive explosion. It contained most of her remaining Ena, leaving her with almost nothing. The explosion was so big that even Yin Zhen almost failed to escape.
Even if this alien survived, all the blades inside her body would have been crushed.
Selena squinted her eyes, muttering, "Did we do it this time?"
