In the mountains, we can hear all sorts of cries.

In Stoneveil City, we can also hear all sorts of cries.

"Woof woof!" That’s the sound of Omen’s beloved dog.

"Caw caw—" That’s the sound of the giant eagle with a knife stuck in its leg.

"No drinking potions!" That’s the earnest advice of a Molten Furnace Knight teacher not yet discovered.

"Ugh aaaah!" That’s Greg’s cry.

When the soldiers appeared carrying a large amount of limb materials, Uffie and the others clearly frowned, not expecting a group brawl scenario.

However, upon reflection, it seemed to make sense. Greg is a great Lord, and doesn’t need to personally engage in a fight with them. Summoning his soldiers for a group brawl is truly the king of strategies.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed there were quite a few familiar faces among those soldiers, likely those who had come to chase them after hearing the commotion, only to fall due to a broken elevator. Now, seeing old enemies, the combat power doubled.

But just as Uffie’s party thought they were about to engage in a life-risking, courage-testing mêlée, something magical happened.

Greg cut off half of one of his seemingly insignificant arms!

This is why he let out such a miserable cry, "Ugh aaaah!" The sound alone made others feel his pain.

Blood spurted from the severed limb... turns out the arms attached to his back can really circulate blood?

People wanted to comment, saying if he’s so afraid of pain, why cut himself? Might as well clad himself in armor and max out his defense.

However, everyone knew he wouldn’t do this without reason, feeling anxious, thinking of numerous possibilities, the greatest of which was this act might enhance Greg’s power.

And so, they just watched.

No one moved to interrupt Greg.

Everyone wanted to see what Greg would become. Self-mutilation is too harsh; they stood there, observing as a form of tribute and gift.

"Splat!" That was the sound of a wolf’s body being chopped in half by a Golden Giant Axe.

This time, the wolf’s body didn’t spurt blood, as it had been lifeless for quite some time, its blood dried up, unable to act through alchemy; only a Necromancer could turn it into an undead creature and make it stand again.

The soldiers approached, presenting half the wolf’s body as if it was treasure, and Greg had already suppressed his screams, forcefully inserting his severed limb into the wolf’s body.

If an ordinary person did this, the instant the wounds made contact they would be infected with numerous bacteria, but this is a world of magic...

"Awoo!"

The long-dead wolf suddenly opened its eyes, letting out a howl more standard than Dal’s, its fur bristling as if truly revived!

"Whoa!" Isha stepped back, the scene in front of her seemed quite eerie!

"So limb attachment is just this kind of attachment." Fanen realized. He always thought it had a deeper meaning, but now it seems you just attach the limbs to yourself and use the corpse’s power. It’s that simple.

He initially imagined limb attachment would involve attaching a dead person’s body to imprison their soul—totally absurd.

"Interesting, what’s the principle behind this?" Edgar’s eyes flashed with curiosity, "It looks as if the wolf is truly resurrected, having vitality that undead creatures don’t possess yet being sharper than creations revived by alchemy..."

But no matter their guesses, the power of Greg, who now had the wolf’s body attached, undoubtedly strengthened!

Since the limb he used was attached on his back where it was almost useless in combat, now with the wolf’s body attached, people had to consider the risk of being bitten by the wolf in close combat!

And there were corpses seemingly far superior to the wolf’s everywhere!

"Alright, the show is over, take him down before he gets stronger!"

Uffie took the lead to take action, but she didn’t rush towards Greg. Instead, she flashed in front of a soldier.

This was just an ordinary convicted soldier, nothing noteworthy or worth attention, why would Uffie particularly focus here?

Because the soldier was holding a big lobster’s head!

Uffie had to destroy this thing fast!

Just seeing the shrimp head triggered bad memories, reminding her of the time at Lake Lienia when Gapar persuaded her to pick a flower, only for the three big stones next to the flower to stand up.

Those three stones that stood up are rated by adventurers as one of the most dangerous monsters in Lake Lienia—the Big Lobsters!

"This thing alone cannot exist!"

Uffie’s spear wrapped in Fighting Qi, interwoven with the nearby gale, formed into a spiral storm which she thrust forward. The storm immediately rushed towards the soldier holding the lobster head.

But at that moment, two gray storms hit from the side, accurately blocking her attack!

The assailants were... Lost Land Knights!

One knight held a sword and shield, another a long spear, both wrapped in storm, exuding unparalleled dominance.

Seeing a group of adventurers, their eyes instantly turned red, their combat power and presence skyrocketing.

"How come it’s you again..." Uffie scratched her head. These two Lost Land Knights were among those chasing them, meaning they too had fallen from the elevator.

"If you want to fight me all day, I’m game, but let me destroy that lobster head first."

Facing Uffie, who persistently went for the shrimp head, the Lost Land Knights moved to obstruct her, the clash intense in moments.

But Uffie’s actions inadvertently caused what she wished to avoid—the soldier hurriedly dashed towards Greg with the lobster head, who swiftly severed his arm and inserted the limb!

Greg... attached the shrimp head!

"Oh no!" Uffie quickly shouted, "Everyone gather around, don’t stray too far from him!"

"What?"

The people were still unclear as to why but complied, and in that brief moment, Greg began attaching a wolf head, a lobster head, bear claws, and even a Mountain Monster’s arm!

The addition of four extra limbs made his figure appear even more terrifying, and even scarier was the soldiers circling him, holding other large amounts of limb attachment materials!

Fanen felt a sudden chill at the situation, turning his head to look at the little immobile Flying Dragon perched on the tree.

That thing... could it also be attached?

"On my way!" Tepi, having encountered lobsters before, pulled Isha beside him as a reminder and ran towards Greg.

"Hmm?" Edgar made a strange sound; he was charging magic and unable to move freely, so he placed a Magic Shield in front.

Being the furthest person present, he was undoubtedly targeted by Greg, or perhaps by his lobster head.

"Bang!"

A stream of water with power far beyond high-pressure hoses surged violently from the lobster head, hitting the Magic Shield in the blink of an eye!

Edgar’s mouth stiffened as he suddenly found his Magic Shield cracking with dense gaps!

Impossible, his Shield Magic was borrowed... learned from his teacher who stole it from Professor Turci at the Magic Association and improved upon it!

Before he could reinforce the shield, the next moment, a large amount of water shattered the shield, washing over him directly!

"The kid using magic!" Tepi glanced back with concern but chose to keep running when he saw the lobster head aiming at him.

Uffie had just freed herself from entanglement with the Lost Land Knight, but upon seeing the terrifying power of the lobster’s signature Water Jet Emission skill, she couldn’t help but be amazed.

"Why does it feel stronger than the lobsters from Lake Lienia?"

Although Gong Qiying’s hometown folks always joked that Greg couldn’t defeat a lobster in combat, realistically, Ge wasn’t so unskilled that he’d lose to a lobster, not so disgracefully.

The lobster, summoned as a Monster, was certainly considered a lower "value" than the limb-attached Greg by Gong Qiying.

However, once its head was attached by Greg, its value was instantly raised to sync with Greg’s own level!

The sudden sound of frantic patting came, Fanen encountered trouble when engaged in close combat with Greg, his shoulder unexpectedly bitten by the wolf head, his blood gushing.

And the bear claws attached also exerted their power, the arm bursting with a desire for violent attack almost equal to the original giant bear, slapping Fanen several times in an instant!

The sound of bones breaking abruptly filled the courtyard, Fanen grunted but didn’t retreat. Instead, he wielded a Saw Meat Blade and charged forward with more slashing.

Hunters exchange wounds for wounds, blood for blood, using the enemy’s blood to heal themselves!

He ducked to dodge the swings of both a large and a small axe, his Saw Meat Blade slicing through, cutting off one of Greg’s limbs, with his bone injury rapidly recovering.

At this moment, there was a sudden "puff" sound, and a Longsword pierced through his chest!

Looking back, he realized it was the Mountain Monster’s arm attached by Greg that picked up a soldier’s weapon and stabbed him in the back.

The Mountain Monster’s arm was much longer than that of ordinary people, unexpectedly proving useful in this situation.

"I’m here!"

Isha swung her Hunter’s Staff from afar, and Greg saw her and threw Fanen towards her.

"Eh?" Isha caught Fanen steadily but didn’t understand why he did that.

Just as she poured Healing Potion on Fanen, she realized why.

Greg grabbed the wolf head from the attached limb and promptly replaced it with the giant bear’s head, the bear’s gaping mouth aiming at Isha.

"Roar!"

The beast’s roar turned into a substantial invisible shockwave, crashing into Isha and Fanen, sending them both flying!

Seeing the two fly away, it aligned with the timing for a water jet emission, the chilling lobster head aiming at the still mid-air pair!

"How did this guy suddenly become so strong."

Uffie quickly intervened to cut off the water flow, nearly getting her weapon knocked out of hand by the surprisingly powerful water spray.

She turned to look back more alarmed.

"Ancestors, this is my power!"

Removing bear claws, replacing with crab pincers.

Removing Mountain Monster’s arm, instead attaching a Big Crow’s head from somewhere.

Removing the Faded’s arm, replacing with a giant dog’s head.

The rear arm was further supplied by soldiers with repeating crossbows identical to those of the Doll Soldiers, and equipped with numerous armor-piercing arrows glowing coldly.

"My power!"

Greg raised the Golden Giant Axe high, in that instant, the aura swallowed the sky and covered the earth!

Uffie bit her lip, her expression indescribable, shouting in her heart:

Where did this nightmare Sewn Monster come from!?
