YM778.TV Chapter 197 Arrival
Not only have the Players survived her onslaught of almost a thousand Small Snakes between Level 15 to 20, but they had also managed to defeat her four Giant Snakes, which were all Level 30!
Certainly, it wouldn\'t had gone their way if it wasn\'t for a particular one within their group, Planta. This Dryad Farmer woman held within her an incredible power, something that the Snake Queen had honestly never expected out of a Player, the power to change the [Terrain Tiles].
She had singlehandedly shaped the Terrain of her own Dungeon, the place she had been given the power to shape as she desired as the Dungeon Master! It felt as if she was completely cheating! The Snake Queen was so furious that she felt like she had swallowed a swarm of bitter bugs.
The System had promised her the ability to change her fate and to even force immortals themselves to not be able to intervene with her… but at the end, things didn\'t go as she planned. The Players were too strong, and Planta changed the tide of battle with a single swipe of her weapon.
However, it wasn\'t as if everything was over yet, after all, she wasn\'t a weakling at all. She was someone way stronger than before, in fact, she had already surpassed the strength of her previous life, the one that the Hero of Old had slain.
With her power to drain MP from her Dungeon and the ability to unleash incredible Magic and Skills, she awaited them without any fear. She had no plans aside from fighting them, as she had confidence on her own strength…
Of course, like any snake, she was not without tricks.
"Come at me then… I will show you what happens to those insolent enough to dare come fight me head-on…!" She said to herself. "And you… Titania, I won\'t forgive you for what you\'ve done. You\'re the one I detest the most… I will slaughter you and your people after I kill your heroes… I promise it!"

(Elayne\'s POV)
After the enormous battle we had at the beginning of this dungeon, and after our break and then our road towards the depths of it, we have finally reached it, the lair of the Queen. Interestingly enough, there were no other monsters around, there were no snakes or anything of the sort, it felt strangely empty, way too empty to be honest… However, I knew that deep in there, the Queen was waiting for us. It felt as if she was very confident that she could fight us directly.
After seeing her employ so many underlings to fight for her, it felt strange she would confront us head-on. Even Titania felt doubtful about this. She was definitely up to something, wasn\'t she? I knew it… However, I really couldn\'t think of what she might be trying. And just to make sure, I might as well make a Terrain inside the cave as well.
"HYAAAA!"
CLASH!
I charged a good amount of Mana and a bit of Spiritual Essence from the Great Spirit, hitting the ground before us in the corridor leading us below.
TRUUUM!
The entire corridor began to change and shape, the ground began to constantly shapeshift, gaining soil on top of it, as the healthiness of it made everything richer, shining with bright gold and green light which meant Life and Nature Elements were taking over the place. They were not enough to bring my Spirits through Dragon Veins yet, so I\'ll have to fight without their aid in this Boss Battle, but I had the aid of my friends, my summons and tamed monsters, and the Fairy Spirits led by Titania. Of course, there was also the Great Spirit of Farming and Harvest, my trump card.
FLUOSH!
The Terrain on front of us quickly changed, as the Healthy Soil Tiles were filled with flowers and from the flowers, an aura of magical power began to come out, there were already almost a hundred small Flower Garden Knights marching behind us, and I believe that as long as I will it, Titan can also transform into his Guardian Form and Nieve into her Frost Fairy Princess Form. Both are triggered by the new Spells I had acquired thanks to Titania\'s Blessing.
Helping her was the best I could\'ve done, the boost I\'ve gained from her was fantastic, and the ability to temporarily transform two of my party members, boosting their stats and giving them new abilities is something that I never thought this game could feature at all! It is really a fun experience to see them transform and all…
However, I cannot keep thinking so carefreely, this is the time of truth after all!
"Amazing, the Terrain even inside of this cave is changing." Said Titania in amusement. "With this, I feel inspired to fight more… But… I wonder if I can do this?"
Titania seemed slightly doubtful after what she had been saying before.
"Why?" I wondered.
"Well… The Snake Queen was… Ah, I guess it doesn\'t matter now. It has been so long since then that I suppose… Things have changed too much for that to even be relevant." Titania sighed, her spiritual form seemed to slowly grow less brighter as she showed her emotions.
I didn\'t wanted to really dig into her memories about this, so I quickly decided to not pursue the topic.
Led by Titan and Nieve in front as our Tank and Main Physical Attacker, we slowly moved as I converted the Terrain. My MP was already down to half, but I had already laid the groundwork for most of what I wanted to bring, especially the Fairy Spirits, as over sixty had joined us with Titania. To transform Titan and Nieve, I\'ll simply spend roughly 400 MP each, that would leave me in around 2k MP, more than enough for my own attacking and healing.
"Welcome to the place where all of you will die."
Suddenly, the tenebrous voice of the Snake Queen resonated through the dungeon.
We reached the last floor, and there, an enormous shadow emerged before us, with menacing red eyes.
