The accessories these bastards had were not even to boost their power, it was a Curse meant to transform them when they died?! So the one that gifted them to these bandits did so knowing they would get killed easily?
The Ice was also like that Curse that froze the people back at the Majin Kingdom. I had already tried using the items I bought from the Viscountess of the dwarven nation and even when all of them were used together, I was unable to melt that damned accursed ice.
I had begun considering the creation of even stronger Fire Bombs, but the ones we made the other day were still not useful and couldn't do anything. And even less, my Mining Skill didn't help at chipping away the indestructible ice either.
And the ice forming this Undead Frost Monster was also similar to that one, but perhaps weaker… Nonetheless, the monstrous being that was formed out of ice was not something as easy as defeating these bandits. Syllis and the Goblin Chief stopped their charge, as they suddenly noticed the enormous beast emerging. It had the shape of a Polar Bear but made out of ice and the frozen corpses of the bandits.
Their swirling souls were instantly cursed and melded together with the other accessories, fusing them together into the Undead Ice Monster. It looked pretty powerful; I might make one myself in the future…
[Accursed Undead Ice Golem: Lv55] [Rank: B+++] [Status: Furious]
A monstrous entity formed from the power of Accursed Frost Magic conjured by the power of several Cursed Accessories that activate once the wielder is dead. In normal circumstances, each wielder would turn into a different, frozen undead golem. However, once there are many gathered in the same place, a mutation would occur and all would merge into a powerful and stronger version. One of the many wicked creations of the Frost Queen through the fearful powers of the Cursed Crown of Skadi.
[Skills: [Accursed Frozen Claw] [Spiraling Icicle Spears] [Frozen Domain] [Freezing Curse] [Freezing Howl] [Frozen Jaws] [Berserker Charge] [Long Sword Arts] [Gladiator's Might] [Axe Techniques] [Strong Axe Slash] […]
Its stats were all out of this world, a B+++ Rank monster?! And above all, this thing, just as I guessed, was a damn creation of the Frost Queen! That shady bitch… is she somehow working with the damn Vampires now?! Is she teaming up with them to beat me up now?
Not only was the monster strong and had several OP Skills, but it had many Skills I had seen before. Yeah, it had all the Skills, or most of them, from the other bandits we just killed. This thing absorbed them all and even their powers… If this curse spreads out more and more, whenever we kill something, it'll turn into an Undead Ice Golem and become several times stronger, and if they merge, they just become ridiculous !
Well, there's no way it can use Swordsmanship Techniques or something, it lacks a sword…
The enormous bear shaped Ice Golem roared furiously, as it suddenly conjured an enormous quantity of ice all around, which then shaped into long swords, axes, spears, and even arrows. Its eyes shone bright red, as it suddenly unleashed all the techniques it stole from the bandits against me!
An enormous frozen sword clashed against my position, unleashing a freezing shockwave.
A gigantic axe quickly attempted to slice me into pieces, as I evaded swiftly, the axe hit the walls behind, clashing and getting stuck there, as it exploded into countless freezing spikes.
I quickly erected Abyssal Barriers to protect the Goblin Chief and the rest from the freezing spikes, as I told them to stand back.
"Stand back, don't get in here, this thing is not something you can easily handle." I told them, standing in front of them.
Three enormous frozen spears attempted to pierce through my body as I evaded them and jumped around swiftly. I quickly looked behind me, finding tens of frozen arrows being directed my way.
"I'm getting a bit tired of this."
I swung my hand as an enormous mass of darkness was unleashed, taking over the arrows and destroying the floating weapons in an instant.
"I might be a Necromancer yeah, but I am plenty strong myself." I said, looking back at the ferocious bear-shaped ice golem, as the beast suddenly began glowing red…
Like that one bandit!
The enormous bear of almost twenty meters of height rushed towards me at an incredible speed, jumping towards me and then pointing its sharp icy claws at my phantasmal body.
I was pushed down, as the gigantic beast's claws began to attempt to slice through my soul, flaring with a red aura of the [Berserker Charge] Gladiator Skill!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
"God damn it, and just today I don't have my weapons…"
I sighed, as I quickly ignored the bear's attacks, my entire body began to shapeshift, turning into a mass of snakes and flies shapeshifting into a mass of shapeless form and then completely covering the bear's entire body.
"I can't do anything flashy so… [Black Lightning Strike] + [Dark Storm] = [Abyssal Lightning Storm]!"
Suddenly, an enormous cloud of darkness gathered all around the golem, unleashing slicing black winds and sharp and deadly lightning strikes, beginning to damage the enormous beast constantly.
It's entire body eventually started to gain countless cracks. The beast tried to free itself from my own body entangling its own, but it was futile!
The Ice Golem gave a last otherworldly roar before it started crumbling into pieces, falling into a pile of ice crystals. I quickly forced my way into the pile, finding a mass of silver-like metal with a freezing ice crystal core, which was formed by the combination of the dozens of Cursed Accessories… It could be said this thing was the golem's core.
Of course, I shattered it into pieces so this thing wouldn't stand back up again…
However, things were not over yet.
"Lady Maria! There is a large group of Ice Monsters rushing from the way we came from!" The Goblin Chief said.
"So those bandits also became damn Ice Monsters?!" I asked. "It seems to have some sort of delay, and other times it doesn't… Is the Frost Queen herself controlling them and activating them as she sees fit?" I wondered, as I saw a dozen of Frozen Monsters of various shapes rushing in.
Well, at the end of the day, it's just more EXP for me.
