While they were going up they complained to Mat about the zombies that were regenerating and multiplying, because it was their fault. They named them "Zombie Army". Although they also said that they didn't look as horrible as the zombies in some movies.
Already on the upper floor, Victor guided them again on the path that was supposed to be correct (not without resting for about 30 minutes), until they met... Another monster.
They were in a corridor. This one had other corridors. Victor chose one of the paths and they went that way.
After walking down the corridors for a while, they ran into something. That is... The monster on duty.
"Stop."
They did.
Here's the text with the dialogues formatted as requested:

"There's something nearby, isn't there?" Mat said quietly. He was very tired. James noticed that. "Yes."
"...What do we do?" Nicole asked quietly, readying her PSI axe. "Do we confront it? No, do we make Mat confront it?"
"Avoiding it would be best, and you know why."
"Mat is tired," James said.
"...It's okay, I'm fine," Mat said.
"Mat... No, you better take the axes away," said Nicole. "Wait, were you still holding that rope? Don't be silly, why did you keep it all this time if we don't need it?"
"...Right."
This... I don't know what to say about this. The thing is, Mat removed the two axes, the rope, and two flashlights. Ah, that place was a bit brighter. "Let's keep going, but don't make any noise."
They kept walking. At that, they came to a part where the hallway got bigger. This place, like the previous one, had several more paths around it. At that...
"H-hey..." Nicole said in a low voice, pointing to one of the corridors, one that was on the right.
They all turned to look and noticed a humanoid creature. It was a very tall one, taller than Victor. Its arms were thin, literally black in color, with claws reaching down to its feet. Its body was wide at the top, but the abdomen was... It was getting smaller and had a mouth there. Its legs were short and thin as well, and they were bowed. Now, describing its head... It had no neck, or well, you couldn't tell. His face was white and his eye sockets were empty. It had a half-large mouth that was always open, it seemed to breathe through there, despite having two orifices that resembled a nose.
"Don't move. Don't speak either."
The four of them remained motionless.
"No wait, this isn't..."
The creature turned to look at them as well, and as it began to approach, it began to disappear into nothingness.
Here's the text with the dialogues formatted as requested:

"What?" James exclaimed, surprised. At that, the creature appeared behind Victor and started to put its hands on his neck, but he noticed that and quickly dodged it. The other creature jumped... To say creature many times is... Boring; I better call it "The Nameless One" because it doesn't have a name (and also because calling it that way is better than calling it "The One with no Name"). Well... The "Nameless One" jumped away from the group and disappeared again.

"Listen up," Mat said, and everyone turned to look at him. "I don't know if this will work again... But we have to try." He paused for a moment. "I'm going to lock the monster up with a PSI barrier."
"And then what?" James asked.
"Huh?" Mat replied. "That's right... If what it does is teleport, it's going to escape, but... And if it doesn't... it doesn't matter." He took a breath. "I'm going to impale him."
"..."
"..."
"...That sounded horrible," Nicole said. "But do it."
"Yeah, otherwise that thing... it might kill us," James added. "Ah!"
The "Nameless One" appeared behind James and was about to touch his neck when Mat shouted, "Take this!" He locked the "Nameless One" in a yellow PSI barrier.
The "Nameless One" was locked in. It tried to escape, supposedly blending in with the darkness of the place, but... it was impossible.
"So he wasn't really teleporting... Phew... What a relief," Mat said.
"Hey, hey, so you planned that with that possibility," James said. "What if it didn't work out?"
"That... But it did work, didn't it?" Mat replied.
"Yeah, but... Hey!"
The "Nameless One" was forcing the barrier, bending in a strange way, and... it did it. The barrier shattered as if it were glass, and its pieces disappeared as they fell to the floor.
"Impossible!" Mat exclaimed, frightened. "Agh!"
The creature lunged at Mat, giving him no time to react. It swiftly grabbed Mat by the neck and started to pull him into its mouth, from its abdomen, to... devour him. But... Victor, although he was slow to react, used the fleshy tentacles coming out of their back to catch the "Nameless One" (I forgot to call it that before...) and pull Mat up, throwing him upwards.
After that, Mathias, in midair, created a green PSI spear and, before the "Nameless One" disappeared, he extended the spear to stab it in the head.
"...What the hell just happened?" James exclaimed.
"Eh, eh... Huh?" Nicole was confused, looking all around until she finally saw Mat standing next to the creature.
"I'm going to crush it now," Mat said. "Just in case it revives..."
"Uh... Ok," Nicole replied, still looking at the creature, confused because everything happened in an instant. At that, she heard the creature say something strange that couldn't be heard very well, but it sounded like, "Free me from this pain..." only choppier. "H-hey, the monster said—"
"Wait."
"Huh?"
"Hey, Victor, what's up?" asked Nicole, who had been ignored.
A rumbling sound came from upstairs and, although it sounded far away, the place began to shake.
"H-hey, what the hell was that?" James exclaimed, startled.
"Something's happening above," Victor said.
"So... Is that why there's no one down here?" Nicole said.
"Probably... Something must have happened for them not to be able to contain us."
"So... Don't you think you'd better try to contain the... stuff they have here? I don't understand..." James said.
"They should," Mathias said as he sat down. "Uff... I'm tired and... a little dizzy..."
"Anyway, let's take the opportunity to escape."
It trembled again, but this time...
"Ah!" Nicole shouted.
"A crack came out..." Mat said as he looked at the wall to his right.
Out of nowhere, a kind of red arrow came from that crack and pierced Mat in his collarbone, Nicole in her hand, James in his thigh, and Victor in his abdomen. They were hooked.
"Kyagh!" screamed Nicole, who fell to her knees as she was pulled, groaning in pain after seeing the wound.
"Agh, damn!" exclaimed James, who fell and was pulled a meter by his thigh.
"Ack!" Mat shouted, trying to remove the stuck arrow. It pulled him into the wall.
Victor said nothing and didn't flinch.
"Mat!" called Nicole, frightened and in horrible pain. "W-what's t-this!?"
At that, in a large room not far away, the ceiling fell. There was a lot of dust because of this. When it cleared, what the group could see was a huge monster (which was similar to a rhinoceros, because of its skin, but... It had claws and its appearance also resembled that of a lion or something like that? It also had horns coming out of its neck, apart from the one horn that was on its head) with a large, no... Huge wound from which blood and a silvery liquid was oozing out. Next to this stood a woman of white complexion with blonde hair (she had a ponytail) and black eyes, wearing a black suit. She was also carrying a backpack, whose large zipper was half open.
