The cavern trembled from the impact. Dust burst out in thick, suffocating waves as the ground shattered under her massive body. Cracks spread like spiderwebs across the floor, stretching for meters. Her legs jerked a couple times before going still, while thick, dark fluid oozed beneath her, forming a dark pool that crept outward.
For a second, the battlefield fell silent.
The notification blazed across Reidar's vision.
[Queen Vorathid Ant defeated.]
[You have gained 10,238 C.L.A.S.P. Points.]
[You have gained 3,071 Survival Points.]
Reidar didn't celebrate since it wasn't enough to fill him with enough C.L.A.S.P. points to level up. He understood months earlier that to really get stronger, he had to reap numbers rather than lone strong monsters.
The level disparity between creatures was an important factor, as it was impossible for a level 80 warrior to kill a level 92 bulking queen of monsters.
But numbers could drown her.
