Versatile: Alternate World
Chapter 509 The Raid Begins (IV): Deep UndergroundIf the march of the soldiers happened where players could see, they would naturally be curious about what the event was going to be. Not only that, but it looks badass enough that many will try to capture a video on this, post it on media platforms, and brag it to their viewers or even friends. Thankfully, we are far from the eyes of players right now especially since this was an area that is unexplored by players, and by default, we are the first ones to experience the harshness of this place.
With the help of one of the magicians, they created a tunnel that will allow us to descend down the underground directly by terraforming the ground and creating stairs that would act as a path for us to enter and exit. I volunteered to write the map to avoid getting lost once we are starting to move around. I know how important it is during my time when I was underground. I know it wouldn't be useful for now, but it will once it is filled with paths. Getting lost would be disastrous.
When we entered underground, monsters immediately welcomed us. Since we are in the backlines, we are tasked to defend the backline against ambushes and when the ambush is performed by the monsters, we immediately managed to respond immediately. As for the frontline, I don't even need to worry with Queen Tanya dealing all the enemies. Even Queen Tori did not even get to do anything with Queen Tanya doing all of the troublesome work.
"Damn, and I thought she was just a classy queen but who would have thought she would be quite a monster in the battlefield," Hagane whistled.
"Oh? Is this your first time seeing her Majesty fight? You are quite surprised right?" one of the soldiers who were near with us started to speak.
"Yeah. I thought she would rely on her soldiers at first and the armor is just there for the boosting of morale to the soldiers but I was so wrong," Hagane answered.
"Many of us were like that at first until we have seen how she was capable enough. She didn't become just a queen out of being eloquent in politics, she is also a reliable commander who would fight alongside her soldiers rather than stay behind her castle and watch the battle. We, soldiers of the queen are quite grateful for how she keeps up with how she fights so we will gladly follow her even if it costs our lives."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMy father shook his head when he heard that.
"Boy, don't be so ready to throw your life away. Even if you are just a normal footsoldier doesn't mean your life would just be a fodder. Fight for your own survival and win against the adversary. Don't let it kill you and instead use it to get stronger. You will be more useful to your queen with you being alive and well rather than a cold corpse on the ground."
The soldier's eyes lit up when he heard my father said that. But my father has a point though. Why die for your queen when you can fight to live for your queen?
The barrage of monsters were continuously pouring to us but we are quite capable of handling them all so it wasn't even a big of a problem and with the armor and weapons that are mass produced being used by everyone, the enemies were just a bunch of crawlies for them.
Of course, we don't just get weak monsters, but we also got some big enemies blocking our way. Still, Queen Tanya is quite capable of killing them. Sometimes, she just does her job of reducing its HP before handing them to her soldiers for them to kill it, allowing her to share the experience to the soldiers and leveling them up to a good measure.
Soon, we reached on a giant door that blocks our way forward. It would have been understandable if it was a dungeon but we didn't enter a dungeon but just an underground tunnel.
"Perhaps we breached a dungeon without knowing about it?" My mother is a bit worried that we would be in a dungeon as it will only show that the battle will be hellish for us especially with the levels of monsters here alone is enough to cause panic.
Almira immediately explained to calm and ease my mother's worries.
"Don't worry. The dungeons cannot be breached by any means anyways so it is already impossible to access one without entering the dungeon's entrance. Anyone who would try to breach a dungeon in any means will not be able to enter the dungeon at all due to the "laws" surrounding them. So if you want to access the dungeon's interior, all you have to do is enter its entrance. There is no dungeon that would allow you to walk around like this by breaching in their walls."
"So even though this place is not a dungeon, it has a boss room? This is the first time I encountered something like this. I didn't know something like this exists!" Dolly was perplexed.
"There are times that dungeon boss rooms appear like this without warnings though I don't mean to say they are not possible to happen. I have seen certain instances of this happening so don't be alarmed if this happened. This is completely normal."
While we are discussing, Queen Tanya and Queen Tori pushes the door open, revealing what was inside of the door. Just like what we expected, it was a boss room and behind the boss that is currently guarding the room is a door that we think to be the way to reach the deepest area of the underground.
We didn't enter the dungeon all at once so Queen Tanya stopped her soldiers from entering. Queen Tori decided to explain the thing to the confused soldiers.
"This is gonna be a dangerous battle so instead of fighting with us, every soldier will guard the door for any enemies. We will be going in alongside with the adventurers to deal with this problem. Besides, if all of us are inside, it will be easy for the boss to just release an AOE attack and we might be wiped out due to that. The lesser the people who will fight with us, the better
I agree with Queen Tori on this one. The lesser of us fighting the boss are, the lower the chances of casualties and since Queen Tanya didn't like to have multiple casualties, she already have an idea on what to do already that is why she stopped the soldiers from coming in.
Queen Tori then asked us to approach and so we did since we already know what she meant for the people who will deal with the boss.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You guys already know the rules and so do I. Are you guys ready?" Queen Tori looked at us.
"Ever since this raid is happening, we are already prepared on what is to come," Harmless Sparrow answered.
"Ha! Sounds promising! Then lets get into this and get this done with as soon as possible!"
As always, the battle hungry Queen Tanya is already eager to start the battle. Dolly and the others are also eager too as this is a boss battle that we will be fighting with, along with the help of two NPCs, Queen Tanya and Queen Tori. After all, we don't get this kind of opportunity to have NPCs help us in a fight unless it is our follower which doesn't count since that also counts as your own firepower.
The boss we are facing right now is a giant stone monster that I can easily tell to be a gargoyle based on the wings behind its back that is curled up around it. And when we get a bit closer, I managed to see a glimpse on what it actually looks like behind the wings covering it. It looks like a dragon to me.
"The monster is still not responding..." Sigma is keeping her guard up but she hasn't even pulled her weapon yet and just remained her arms crossed all the time.
"Don't be so sure about that, monsters like this guy tends to surprise people which will tend to instead cause casualties especially for those careless people who think this guy is just a normal statue," Queen Tori smiled before she pulls out a few slips of paper.
She then throw them in the air and started chanting. I was surprised since I never saw Queen Tori fight but to see her use those papers, I now know what class she is.
Just like Queen Tanya, her class is one of the unreleased classes that will be added after a few expeditions will unlock a corresponding continent that would be accompanied with new classes and races to choose from.
This class is one of the classes that will only be released once the Kamikaze continent is unlocked, the Onmyoji class. A support-DPS hybrid class that specializes in summoning familiars to fight and to release debuff against them.
