Bloater again

That was the Bloater.

The same disgustingly swollen humanoid infected from the game. Tumors layered its body in mounds, as though it had grown cysts within cysts. Pus leaked from some. Others twitched. Its skin was split in places, revealing raw, gray-pink muscle underneath. Its face had no eyes—just a cavity where the infection had swallowed everything. Its mouth drooled constantly, its breathing sounded wet, labored.

Selin's voice was barely above a whisper, but it quivered with urgency, panic catching in her throat. Her hands clutched her knees as she leaned forward, eyes locked on the screen.

Ruvin was right beside her, whispering frantically, "Don't fight it… just run. That thing isn't something you can kill!"

The other students joined the quiet chorus.

"Go, go, go! You don't even know what that thing is!"
