"Let's go!"
Professor said as she began to walk away.
I gave a final look at the Ice statue. They were unlucky to meet Professor Mia though they are also lucky that they have not been killed.
Those people have indeed become ice, but they were only immobilized. They should be fine as long as they are defrosted.
After exiting the dungeon, Professor Mia explained the situation to the guards and asked them to bring the criminal to jail.
Turns out those people were part of the Blackstorm gang which is the dominant gang in the Lair of the Brutal Lions.
Criminal organizations like those did exist in many dungeons. While The Authority had tried to take out such organizations, they failed because it was not worth the effort.
Hiring the Explorer and heroes was expensive and there were too many organizations to deal with. It was also hard to recognize such criminals because most of the things that happen in the dungeon are unknown.
