Ace looks at the Queen ant with fear as he looks at the defences and attacks the Queen has and Ace feels his knees shake and nearly give way.
Ace steps into the room nervously, summoning Winfred while moving into the room.
The attacks start immediately as multiple boulders get thrown towards him and the queen gets close to Ace to attack in close range.
Winfred's Vines and thorns deals little to no damage as the queen ignores them.
Ace dodged the attacks with great skill and speed making the queen ant seam slow and weak in comparison. Ace's control over the water blades is very beginner but still they land easily as Ace focuses on evading and dodging the queen's attacks and bombardments.
A continuous stream of attacks come from all three individuals, all the attacks seam to be useless and leading nowhere. On closer inspection though the spiritual attacks being delt by Winfred and Ace seam to have depleted the Queen Ants HP by 25%.
Winfred's stamina depletes as his attacks slow down, Ace quickly puts Winfred away and continues dodging the continuous attacks from the queen.
Ace finds his stamina to be reaching its end, Ace slows down enough to conserve stamina but still dodge the queen ant's attacks. Ace then using his spear launches at the Queen ant and lands a strike against the queen's head causing small cracks to appear along the queen ant's shell. A second strike against the queen ant causes the shell around the ant's head to shatter. Ace thanks the combo strikes bonus attack damage.
Ace lands again and continues the assault of water blades and dodging the Queen Ant's bombardment of attacks.
After about 20 minutes Ace lands the final blow against the queen Ant causing her to collapse and Ace to fall to the ground in exhaustion after pushing his stamina too far.

The increase in the stats looks good but what Ace looks at with excitement is the new special ability that has appeared. Ace grins as he grips his upgraded weapon.
Ace stands up weakly using his spear to hold himself up. Quickly looking around for any items that look worthy of him picking them up. Finding 2 element blessing shards and 1 Extract blessing shard. As he continues searching he finds 45 Giant rock ant parts and 2 pieces of Stella Rock Ore.

Ace looks at the ore he acquired and sees no element or power coming from the item almost like its power is beyond comprehension.
Ace heads back to the dungeon entrance using his last Warp Stone. Ace heads back to his village, stopping past the Earth dragon before heading off using the warp point.
