Blowing away the smoke, it reveals that the armored lizard had started <span class="mu-i">tunneling</span> straight down through the reinforced floor, looking for an escape. As you realize this you feel its energy drop several feet, no doubt breaking through and down into the floor below. So, without hesitation you jump into the hole, dropping down after it. Only for the creature to open its mouth, firing a barrage of tiny, pink needle-like beams of energy from its mouth at you. But you're too quick, dropping underneath the swarm of piercing points and landing on the ground an instant before they start striking the ceiling, where they let out a sizzling noise. Confused you look up, only to see the ceiling around the hole start <span class="mu-i">dissolving</span>! They gave this thing acid as well? “What the hell?”
“GRRAAAA!” it roars, you turning back to see it's shot an orb the size of your fist at you, no doubt of the same caustic substance as those needles. But this time you don't dodge, instead gather your ki into another energy shot and fire it at the orb. Your attack punches through and splatters the smaller orb, sending droplets flying in all directions as it flies straight towards the monster. Who doesn't have time to evade, but does bring up both arms and plant its feet, using its forearms to block the blast as it hits. Yet, despite bracing itself your attack still knocks it off its feet, sending it smashing into a much thinner wall, collapsing to the ground in a room where you sense a few remaining. A woman screams in terror, you seeing several scientists run out the room's door towards the non-working elevator.
“Keep your heads down, I'll have it subdued soon!” you assure them, only for the monster to roar, the sound of machinery and metal crunching coming from the hole. Then, a moment later one of the armored suits comes flying through the hole in the wall at you, you catching the suit and turning to set it down. As you do, the monster charges, this time its horn glowing and another foot or so longer. You see the attack coming, turning back to face it and brace yourself, <span class="mu-i">catching</span> it in both hands. The force of the monster's charge still pushes you back to underneath the hole in the ceiling before you manage to stop the monster, then with a smirk you lift it up by the horn. The monster's eyes widen in surprise, then with a shout you throw it back up through the hole. Dashing up after it, you then, grab the creature by the tail, spinning it around in a circle once before pitching it back through the doorway, crashing through another wall before sliding into another wall, which though dented pretty badly, stops it. “So, what else can you do?”
