Because of its proximity to the forest area, the Level 3 demonized wild dog managed to enter the wheat field known as the ‘safe zone’.
Interesting.
It just so happened that Lorne had completed his beginner mission.
Now, before he returned to the village, he could have a good fight with the savage monster.
————
[Demonized Wild Dog]
Quality: Normal
Level: 3
HP: 400 / 400
Physical Attack: 25-37
Defense: 11
Skill: [Bite]
Introduction: The demonized wild dogs wandering in the forest are very fierce. Their fangs are as sharp as blades. Be careful when you encounter them.
————
The attributes of a level 3 monster were really terrifying.
400 HP was higher than any of the pets under Lorne.
Moreover, the upper limit of its physical attack was 37 points. Coupled with the increase in damage from the skill, it was normal for one hit to deal 50+ damage.
To the current players, such monsters were nightmares.
Even Lorne had to deal with this cautiously. Otherwise, if the other party seized the opportunity, he might very well die from the sharp teeth.
“Fake Healer, use Poison Spray!”
With the mentality of striking before the enemy, Lorne commmanded.
With that, he quickly moved his legs and coordinated with his pets to surround the wild dog.
Unlike facing the demonized pheasant, the opponent this time was even stronger. If they still used their previous attitude to deal with the battle, it was very likely that they would all die.
Thus, it could be seen that Lorne grew very serious.
Pfft—

The Poison Sprayed as two numbers appeared.
The Poisonous Slime was indeed the main force. Even against a level 3 monster, it could put up a fight.
At the same time, Lorne’s staff also fired magic bullets.
Boom!
It was an accurate hit.
Unfortunately, the damage was not high, only dealing 9 damage.
The other two slimes were similar. Their damage output was in the single digits.
But to his advantage, there were four of them attacking this time. Everyone could make a contribution.
This was especially true for the Vitality Slime. It had a health bar as high as 300 points. Coupled with its healing effect, it could take a lot of damage. It was the best choice to tank in the front line now.
“Howl!”
The demonized dog let out a furious roar and quickly rushed towards the Poisonous Slime.
It was the current DPS dealer, so all aggro was on it.
But Lorne would not let that happen.
“Little Doctor, obstruct it!”
This was the name that Lorne had given the Vitality Slime. It was the opposite of the Poisonous Slime’s Fake Healer.
Upon hearing the command, the little figure blocked the monster.
Brutal fangs tore into its body, as pieces of red liquid splashed around.
The Vitality Slime lost 32 HP and even its body shrank a little.
This demonized wild dog’s damage was indeed very high.
Fortunately, the little guy’s health was quite high, so there would not be any problems for a short period of time.
At this moment, the poisonous slime that was protected at the back also attacked.
All the poison struck the foe.

Every five seconds, the poisonous slime would attack.
Although the frequency of its attacks was lower than that of the demonized wild dog, it was a long-range attacker. With the advantage of distance, it could reduce the number of times the opponent hit it.
This was a test for Lorne as well.
His commands were essential in this battle.
With a good battle tempo, it could allow the strength of ‘1’ to unleash the combat strength of ’10’.
Lorne had indeed succeeded in doing this.
His accurate judgment made the attacks of the demonized wild dog repeatedly fall through. The entire battle seemed to be controlled firmly by the slimes and no effective attacks could land on them.
About a minute later, as they fought back and forth, the demonized wild dog’s health rapidly decreased.
Its health was as high as 400, but it could not even last for a minute before dying from the poison.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations to your pet [Poisonous Slime (Fake Healer)] for successfully killing a demonized wild dog. You have received 6 (+11) experience points.”
A total of 17 experience points.
In total, it was equivalent to three demonized pheasants.
It seemed that forcefully killing high-level monsters was not a good thing.
Although the experience gained from killing the demonized pheasant was low, it took much less than a minute.
Additionally, it was easier to kill the demonized pheasant, there was no need to be so nervous.
Lorne stretched his limbs, then began to clean up.
To be honest, he was looking forward to the materials he obtained this time.
He wondered what it would be.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations on obtaining the material: [Head of the Demonized Wild Dog].”
The head of a demonized wild dog?
Great!
He wanted this material, for in his mind, there was a very bold idea that required this head.
“There’s no rush to return to the village.”
“Combining new pets is more important.”
Lorne quickly gathered up the seven coins and rushed into the forest.
Now he had to find another demonized wild dog.
He would use it as a prototype.
Together with the head in the bag as material, the final product might be the legendary Twin-Headed Hellhound!
…
“Found you, my little doggy!”
Not long after entering the forest, Lorne found his target.
Like the previous monster, this was a demonized wild dog.
Although a level 3 monster was powerful, it could not escape from Lorne.
“Fake Healer, treat your guest well!”
Upon hearing the command, the poisonous slime directly shot out a ball of thick poison.
Just like the previous battle, this time, it was mainly kiting the enemy.
The demonized dog was unable to kill any of the enemies as the pets attacked in turns.
A minute passed, it only had a little health left.
At that moment, Lorne neared the beast.
He directly activated the talent skill.
“Ding!”
“Monster [Demonized Wild Dog] has been confirmed as the prototype material. Please confirm other materials.”
“Head of the Demonized Wild Dog.”
Lorne took out the material from his bag.
Then, the system interface popped up.
“Ding!”
“A monster prototype and a material have been identified. The synthesis formula is: (Demonized Wild Dog) + (Head of the Demonized Wild Dog) = (???)”
“The cost is 120 bronze coins. Would you like to merge?”
Taking a deep breath, Lorne shouted, “Come out, Demon Hound from Hell!”
However…
The next second was very uncomfortable and awkward.
“Ding!”
“Insufficient bronze coins. Synthesis failed.”
Lorne forgot that he had less than 70 bronze coins left.
Damn it!
He was clearly looking forward to it.
What a waste of effort.
With a disappointed sigh, Lorne had the poisonous slime use a mouthful of poison to kill the demonized wild dog.
The level 3 creature brought him 7 bronze coins, a piece of fur skin, and a head of the demonized wild dog.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Lorne quickly packed his things and ran in the direction of the village.
With his savings and the reward for completing the mission, he should have 120 bronze coins.
This meant that he could merge a new monster soon.
Awesome!
