The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker

Chapter 63: Raiding an E+ Rank Dungeon Part 10

As soon as the third group surrounded the Lich and the Undead Soldiers, they immediately started their assault to pull them away from the Ice Dread Queen.

Meanwhile, the first group simultaneously assaulted the Ice Dread Queen so that she would remain in her spot and not try to approach her soldiers.

Victor was kiting the Ice Dread Queen quite well, making sure that with every move she makes she'd be following the direction that he wanted.

It was as if Victor and the Ice Dread Queen is dancing together.

Honestly, that's actually a quite difficult skill to pull off as that requires one to have great awareness of not only themselves and their target, but of their surroundings as well. All three things have to be taken into consideration at the same time.

It shows greatly just how talented Victor is and why he is perfectly fitted to have the role of Captain in the Black Panda team.

Even Kayn was tempted to recruit Victor after seeing how he is kitting the boss. Unfortunately, he can't just casually invite people to join his future Guild anymore in fear that the same fate would befall him.

Boom!

The Ice Dread Queen smacked Victor's shield to the side, causing him to retreat a few meters to his rear, and as a result, making his chest wide open.

Seeing this, the Ice Dread Queen took the chance to launch another attack.

As a response to this, Victor simply used the backward momentum to retreat farther to the back.

For that reason, the Ice Dread Queen followed suit. But the moment she tried to attack him once again, Victor's shield was already in front, ready to block her next attack. With no other choice, she could only try her luck one more time.

Unbeknownst to the Ice Dread Queen, what happened just now was actually just one of Victor's ways to kite her to his desired location.

Now, as the Ice Dread Queen continues to follow suit toward Victor due to him purposely giving her openings to attack, she slowly and slowly got farther away from the Lich and the Undead Soldiers.

Unfortunately, Frank and his third group were having serious trouble with how to hasten their paste. They are able to kite the Lich and the Undead Soldiers away from the Ice Dread Queen, but it was clearly not in the same phase as Victor. So, even though Victor has already kited the boss quite a considerable distance away from the third group, it is still not far enough.

Supposedly, the distance between the Ice Dread Queen and her Lich and the Undead Soldiers would widen with the cooperation of the first group and the third group. The first group would kite the Ice Dread Queen, while the third group would kite the Lich and the Undead Soldiers. In that way, with both parties being kited at the same time, the distance between the two would widen quickly.

However, because of Frank's greed, the third group lacks enough manpower to effectively kite the Lich and the Undead Soldiers away from the Ice Dread Queen. If they turn their focus on the Lich, some of the Undead Soldiers would be able to assist the Ice Dread Queen. And if they do the opposite, the Lich would instead be able to help the Ice Dread Queen, which is an even bigger problem.

It wasn't only Frank and his third group that notices their situation, but also Victor and his first group, and Alex and the second group.

"How troublesome," Alex heaved a heavy sigh. Since the second group is almost about to finish their side, with there being only two Liches left and a few dozen Undead Soldiers, it should be safe to send a few of his men to support the third group.

A few men from the second group quickly separated and joined the third group so that they can at the very least catch up to Victor's phase to some degree. Although they are feeling a lot of irritation at the hassle that Frank and the third group had brought to them, they have no other choice since if they fail all of Victor's effort would go down to drain. Plus, if another teammate dies, the Ice Dread Queen would be able to summon another Lich, which equals more trouble. That's obviously an even greater problem compared to the hassle they are experiencing right now.

Frank can't help heaving a sigh of relief after getting some assistance from the second group. But his relief wasn't on the fact that their trouble has lessen, but that he no longer has to feel guilty about what he did and that his decision of sending half of his men to go to the boss' room before ultimately made him hit two birds with one stone — he helped clear the dungeon and get the item he wanted as well. With him helping clear the dungeon, his father would not punish him so badly since he had done one good thing despite doing something bad.

Victor and the rest of the Black Panda team were oblivious to what was going on inside Frank's mind right now. If they knew though, they'd no doubt sacrifice the entire third team to clear this dungeon. And honestly, that would be lesser trouble for them as the only reason why they are experiencing all of this difficulty right now is so that they can reduce their casualties to the barest minimum possible.

With the assistance of the second group, the Lich and the Undead Soldiers were finally being kited quickly away from the Ice Dread Queen.please visit

As soon as the Ice Dread Queen realizes what is happening, she could only helplessly watch as the Lich she had just summoned and his Undead soldiers are now far away from her as well.

Moreover, she can no longer pull the same thing anymore as she had used a lot of mana back then. Her only choices remaining now are to wish for Victor to make a mistake or wait until her last passive ability gets activated when she is in low health.

The onslaught on the Ice Dread Queen continued wildly.

Not long after, the Lich and the Undead Soldier that the Ice Dread Queen had just summoned were finally slain by Frank. Because of that, he joined forces with the first group once again.

A few minutes after that, the second group also rejoins the first group as they already finished cleaning up their side.

Seeing all of this happen, Echo no longer bothered with his plan and he started retreating. Nevertheless, he still kept his guard as he knew that when the Ice Dread Queen's health finally drops too low, that is his time to make a move. After all, he is the ace of the Black Panda team, whose sole purpose other than scouting is to land a critical hit that can give the team an advantage or turn around the bad situation in their team's favor.

It wasn't long before that finally came.

As soon as Alice's Magic spell landed on the Ice Dread Queen, the latter's final phase finally exploded.

One thing to note about the final phase of a boss is that each of them would more or less be different. That's because inhabitants of the 'Tower' follows the same concept as the monsters when it comes to receiving their Gifts — it would depend on their past experiences.

Booom!

A loud explosion erupted as the surrounding freezing area strangely started heating up.

Victor and the rest of the Black Panda team were instantly sent retreating tens of meters away from the Ice Dread Queen. They already expected this to happen. And unlike before, they choose to remain on guard as they don't know what will happen next. It is favorable for them to wait until everything clears up. Otherwise, they might face unexpected dangers which in turn could cause casualties. And as they have all witnessed before, having casualties is going to add more enemies for them.

The heat they felt wasn't that alarming at first, but as the smoke around the Ice Dread Queen started becoming denser and denser, finally covering her entire figure, everyone finally started sweating despite the freezing weather around them.

Eventually, the heat came to a point where Alice had to remove the barrier surrounding Kayn, instantly bringing comfort to his body.

All of a sudden, the snowy ground started cracking.

In the next moment, bits and bits of lava were starting to spew out from the ground.

"Seriously?! Lava in a freezing environment?" Alex can't help exclaiming in surprise.

"Well, that isn't something surprising," Rys muttered.

Situations, where a boss or a monster received a Gift that is of their opposing element, have already happened multiple times in the past. In most of those cases, it's normally because the opposing element is their only weakness or that it is the only element that can pose a threat against them in the environment they lived in, thus the reason why they built up resistance against it which eventually became their Gift.

"Most of the time we encountered something like this, it always turns out bad," Daina started to feel worried.

Because a boss has received a Gift that is of their opposing element, this means to say that they no longer have a weakness. Although not all the time that's how it goes. But in their case right now with the Ice Dread Queen, the weakness of the ice element is either fire element or lava element.

Based on what they have observed right now, the Gift of the Ice Dread Queen is something that is related to controlling lava elements. As to what extent she can control it, that's something they can only find out during the fight.
