The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker

Chapter 62: Raiding an E+ Rank Dungeon Part 9

The helpless man was stabbed straight in his left chest. His armor was completely useless to prevent it from happening as the Ice Dread Queen is more powerful than a well-crafted and refined piece of metal.

With a sudden pull of the Ice Dread Queen's hand, his still weakly beating heart was revealed.

The helpless man stared at his heart for a bit before finally taking his last breath.

This action wasn't a way for the Ice Dread Queen to scare the Black Panda team or something related to that, but rather the heart is what the Ice Dread Queen needed in order to summon a Lich. The dead body, on the other hand, is what the Lich will use to summon an Undead soldier.

Without wasting any more time, the Ice Dread Queen used the heart as a medium to summon a Lich.

Mana was being gathered by the Ice Dread Queen from the surroundings as it started condensing inside the heart. As more and more mana was being gathered, a vague figure of a person was slowly being formed.

That mana though wasn't merely ordinary mana, but also the soul of the deceased man. It was being pulled back by the Ice Dread Queen from going into the afterlife. Although some had still escaped, what's important is that she got some portion of it, which is good enough to summon a Lich.

As evidence of that claim, the figure that was formed seems to almost look identical to the man that the Ice Dread Queen had just killed. Moreover, he was also wearing the same set of armor that the dead man is still wearing, albeit it was created using mana.

After some time, the Ice Dread Queen suddenly exhaled a mouthful of air from inside her body to the heart that was gathering mana. That air though wasn't just any ordinary or normal air, it was actually a part of her life, her very existence called — Breath of Undead.

That's right! To create a Lich, an Ice Dread Queen has to take a portion of her existence. At least, in the case of the Liches that an Ice Dread Queen had summoned. There also exist Liches that started from merely being ordinary Undead soldiers. This is the main reason why the Undead race cannot create an infinite number of Liches. Otherwise, the Undead would have long taken over the world by now.

As soon as the Breath of Undead was added, an explosion erupted inwardly from the heart, and the vague figure made by mana slowly materialized into an actual being.

Boom!

Wind exploded throughout the nearby surroundings and a Lich was finally brought to life… or to existence…

The Lich immediately kneeled down on one of his knees in front of the Ice Dread Queen, clearly understanding that this woman is his master that he must swear to protect with his existence for as long as he is alive.

On the other hand, the Ice Dread Queen merely nodded her head to the Lich as a way of recognizing his existence.

After that, the Ice Dread Queen made a low grumpy sound as if like a queen telling her loyal subordinates that someone is bullying her.

As a response, the Lich looked at the surroundings and soon spotted the Black Panda team approaching them.

Without any second thought, the Lich stood up and turned to look at the dead body behind him. He recognizes the dead body instantly as it was him when he was still alive. Despite that though, he didn't feel any sense of camaraderie or fondness for the Black Panda team. Rather, hatred and rage were boiling inside of him as he realized that they dared to hurt her master.

With a wave of the Lich's hand, the dead body slowly started rising up. Soon after, the lifeless eyes shone blue light, and the eyeballs instantly turned to dust and were replaced by two burning blue wisps.

Although the land was covered in snow and there were no other dead bodies to be found, strangely enough, more and more Undeads were crawling out from the ground.

As this is the territory of the Undead, it is only natural for there to be a lot of dead bodies buried under the ground. And as Lich, he could use it to call forth Undead soldiers.

Unfortunately, despite that fact, the Ice Dread Queen can't take advantage of the undead bodies buried underground as she needs the heart to summon a Lich. And that's the only existence she could create. As for creating more Undead soldiers, that's the ability of the Liches.

Not long after, Undeads finally stopped crawling out of the ground. Nevertheless, there are now more than twenty Undead soldiers ready to fight the Black Panda team.

Since her plan was already completed, the Ice Dread Queen stopped releasing the freezing wind pressure. Otherwise, her mana would soon dry out completely. By then, she won't be able to use any Magic spells.please visit

"This is bad!" Victor muttered. He quickly ordered, "Quickly regroup together everyone!"

Although they have just lost one of their team members, all the melee combatants still immediately retreated away from the Ice Dread Queen and started gathering together. Well, after all, it is not rare for there to be casualties in a dungeon raid. As a matter of fact, their situation right now is already a lot better compared to their previous experience as they have only lost one member and it is during the boss raid as well. Albeit there are still a few casualties at the back line. Lucky still as there's no way for them to become liabilities during the boss raid.

Now that things have turned out this way, they can no longer use the same strategy again. Well, at least as of now as they have to take care of the Lich and the twenty or so Undead soldiers first before being able to do it once again.

"You know what to do!" Victor exclaimed.

Naturally, the Black Panda team already has a strategy prepared to use when a situation like this ever comes.

Evidently, it is a very common occurrence for the army of the boss to still break out of the second team's blockage. Although that didn't happen in this case, it still doesn't change the fact that the troops of the boss have been summoned to assist her.

In the next moment, under the leadership of Frank, a third group was formed from the members of the first group. Moreover, some members from the second group also separated and prepared themselves to launch an attack from behind.

The members of the third group were clearly made up of the men that gathered inside the tent earlier ago.

Kayn was finally able to identify all of them, "Now I know who I should be wary against,"

Surprisingly, Rys is actually part of the third group.

It's probably to keep a close watch on the third group. After all, Rys is part of the main members of the Black Panda team, which are all Victor's men. So, if ever Frank does something that will hurt the interest of the Black Panda team, he'll be reported immediately to Victor.

As simple as that, the Lich and the Undead soldiers he had summoned are now surrounded by the Black Panda team.

"Are these all of your boys?" Victor felt suspicious as he quickly notices that there are only half of the members of the original third group.

"I don't know where they went," Frank said in excuse. If he knew that this would happen, then he would have never dared to send his men to go to the boss' room. Because of that, the third group would no doubt find themselves in a very difficult position. He is already expecting that he would probably lose a considerable amount of men once this end.

It wasn't only Frank who was thinking like that. His men similarly thought as well. In fact, they now believe that the real actual winners back then inside the tent were the people who lost the rock-paper-scissor game because at least in their case, there is a well fifty-fifty chance that they got to live or die. As for their situation right now, there's an eighty percent chance that they would die, or probably even ninety.

The reason why they thought of that isn't that they can't handle a Lich and a few Undead soldiers. What's to even worry about that? In fact, that's a lot better compared to fighting against the Ice Dread Queen. Rather, it's actually because of the fact that there are only half of them right now. Meaning, they have to do twice the amount of effort in order to execute well any of the strategies they have prepared to fight against a considerable number of opponents.

"Regardless, try to do your best to distract them!" Victor no longer minded that as he turned his focus to the Ice Dread Queen once again. As long as the third group can keep the Lich and the Undead soldiers preoccupied, then they would be able to continue putting pressure on the Ice Dread Queen to make her remain in a defensive position. Maybe by then, he can send some of his men to assist the third group.

Honestly, if this wasn't a very dire situation that they are in right now, he would have made a big deal about what happened to the third team. However, because he has to focus on something more important, he has no choice but to put that aside and put his priorities straight. Nonetheless, Frank would get a piece of his mind after this is over.

"This is going to be a lot of trouble for the remaining of us," Frank said to his men. He could already guess that Victor is going to report his actions to his father.

"Turns out his move was a double-edged sword," Kayn can't help but mutter.

"Frank had clearly sent half of his men to the boss' room," Alice said.

"This isn't the first time that this happened," Diana shook his head.

"Seriously?" Kayn really wonders why they still kept Frank in the Black Panda team if he has done something like this on many occasions. His only guess is the latter's father isn't just any ordinary Executive of the White Panda team since the Black Panda team can't seem to get rid of him despite multiple offenses.

"It seems like I have to think it through first before offending Frank," Kayn thought to himself.
