Beta vs. Elizabeth

The Progenitor releases the orb into the air, and it explodes.

When it does, blood sprays around them. In the blink of an eye, though, it coalesces into arrows and goes flying at each person present. The projectiles paint the air scarlet.

“—!!” Beta doesn’t hesitate.

She immediately moves to cover Claire and blocks the arrows with her body.

Her slime bodysuit hardens over her vitals, and she cuts down as many of the arrows as she can while using her body as a shield.

The projectiles cut deep lacerations into her cheeks, arms, and thighs.

Finally, the rain of arrows dies down.
