Swapped

Hao Ren had instincively sensed that the brain monster gave him a weird and uncanny feeling, but he wasn't sure if he was just seeing things. The only thing he could do was to stay on high alert, focus and prepare to face any incoming mental assault.

The brain looked pretty similar to the one he saw back on Dragonspine Ridge, it was a mess of meat and blood in a grosteque shape as it floated with its array of tentacles. Hao Ren could not tell from its appearance if it was the main body or was just another clone. It cautiously eyed the intruders as its tentacles retreated into a defensive posture. A bizzarre numbing aura descended on the party, as if a powerful electromagnetic field was sweeping across the area.

"Charge! Take it alive!" Hao Ren ordered.
