Chapter 59: Death Returns (X): Giant Fire Ant Queen 3

The entire cave shook from the force of the hit, safe to say Rezar could happily say this was the most damage he had caused to a monster. But it wasn't enough, the Queen's massive head smashed into the ground creating a crater and developing massive cracks and dents on her head, however in retaliation her carapace seemed to glow and increase in temperature, and it happened so fast Rezar didn't have time to moved away from the skin on his knuckles were scalded.

The Queen raised her head up with a loud roar as flames gushed out of her open jaw, and it was going straight for Rezar's companions and the slew of already dead ants that were actually coming back to life. It was a worrisome situation n as Rezar hadn't gotten back into position, but even if he did, he only had a recently acquired defensive skill, and it was not high leveled enough to cause any sort of damage. At the rate things were going, he might end up losing Brutus and Jason for underestimating the queen.

[Hell-Fire: Infernal Gates!]

Rezar didn't know just how many classes, and how high leveled the classes of Lenore were, but she was strong. She was posing as a melee fighter, and she even had the stats and skills for it, but she was a mage through and through, and she had really fearsome skills. A massive blazing gate appeared, shooting out of the ground and blasting rocks every which way. The gates had skulls, bones and skeletons of creatures that were obviously demons, and hanging from it were hundreds of chains that were keeping the gate shut.

The flames blasted against the gate, but there was no splash damage as the thirty-foot gate absorbed every last inch of the flames until there was nothing left. It was surprising turn of events not just for Rezar, but also for the ant queen. And with the way her body was swaying, it's obvious she was already at the end of her rope, that fire attack took a lot out of her, and not just magic. After the flames died down, her formerly vibrant carapace had turned a dull brown from a brilliant fiery red.

If there was ever a time to make a hard and decisive strike, it was now, and Rezar didn't let such an opportunity go to waste. he ran towards the ant queen, running across the wall behind her and then pushing of it until he was above her again. Using two skills at the same time was a bad idea on a whole other level, Rezar knew that, but he would rather not have the Queen make a comeback and spit fire like a dragon again, for Christ sakes she was an ant! He jumped over her head and angled his body down, a dull grey light begging to shine and slowly intermingling with a black starlight glow, and then Rezar reached her, making sure to punch right at the same area he had hit previously.

[Power Strike] [Reap]

*Dum! -Crack! -Bang! *

Her skull was pretty much intact, but this was a two pronged attack, Rezar smashed her brain to mush and at the same time reaped her soul. The first skill put her in a weak enough state that the reaping would be successful, and it clinched the victory for them. This fight might not have lasted too long, but Rezar had to be honest, he was a little bit worried that he would fail, especially when the Queen decided it was quite normal for an ant to spit fire like a dragon.

As soon as the queen died, the ants that were still alive scattered, Rezar didn't wasn't that but he couldn't chase after them, before she spat out fire the queen had abruptly raise her head, it wasn't just his fist that were burnt, but his ribs were pretty much smashed. It wouldn't take too long to heal, but there would be no chasing after the ants, besides as it stood he had enough dead ants to accomplish his goal.

[You have reaped the soul of a field boss/absorb soul? /release soul? / Imbue soul in equipment? /store?]

[Soul stored]

[You have slain the Field Boss Giant Fire Ant Queen Level 39/ you have received giant fire ant Spawn stone, 1000 gold coins]

That was surprising, only dungeons dropped loots and money, so it turns out the queen was a special existence or the caves themselves were considered a dungeon. Never the less it didn't matter much anymore, the Queen was already dead. Rezar walked towards Lenore who for some reason looked incredibly pale whilst ignoring Brutus and Jason who were busy piling the dead ants into a pile, while the few they had killed with their physical prowess followed behind them in a zombie like sluggish manner.

If they killed the ants with weapon the ants won't be resurrected, but if they used their horns or any other part of the body, the zombie infection would be passed. Unfortunately, unlike the movies the zombies couldn't pass on their infection, not unless it was a zombie he raised and evolved at least once. The resurrection thing was really stringent. Lenore collapsed her staff and hung it behind her waist as she stood up to look at Rezar.

"Using those flames must have exhausted you, I'm sorry. We'll be done here soon enough, let me just resurrect these ants and have them march to the rendezvous." Rezar said as he turned around, but Lenore stopped him as she asked.

"What about the queen?" Rezar moved his head to the dead carcass of the formerly fearsome monster and said.

"We'll take her with us, but we'll have to cut her apart, dragging that much bulk will slow us down. The ants have enough strength to carry or drag their former queen behind us, she's going to make some really great armor if I do say so myself." With that said Rezar smiled as he turned to massive pile of dead ants and smiled, he raised his hands up into the air, looking every bit like the evil necromancer people though he was as he used his skill, time to move forward with his plans.
