Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?
chapter-33

"""URAHHHH!!!"""

Several tanks used taunting shout as it attracted the aggro of the spiders.

Their eyes gleamed red as they swarmed at the tanks.

"MAGES! FIRE!!" Jonas shouted out blocking the strike of a spider.

*PHEW PHEW PHEW PHEW

Fireballs shot out in volleys as Shiro also threw a few spears. The spears exploded out in mid-air as it rained shards of sharpened ice.

Keeping an eye out for the shooters, Shiro made sure to conserve her MP. Especially since her identity will be discovered when her MP runs out.

Lyrica helped out as she would stab at the Spider Drones through the gap of the shields. Even though her sword was sharp, it would leave only a scratch should she hit in the wrong area.

This was made even more difficult since she had less space to move around with the tankers in front of her.

"SHOOTERS INBOUND!" Jonas shouted out.

Shiro immediately turned her attention to the distance as she found the shooters.

They were coloured red and had a much bigger abdominal area.

[Spider Artillery LVL 20]

'One, two, three, four….' Shiro counted mentally as she realised there were more than 13 shooters crawling towards their general direction.

Flicking her wrist, 10 ice spears rose up around her as she sent them flying towards the spiders.

She made sure each spider had 2 spears assigned to it. The first spear would pierce the head while the second pierced the weapon joint between the abdominal area and the torso.

*BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM

Her spears combusted after killing the spiders, sending shards of ice to the surrounding drones.

While she killed 5 of the spider artillery, the other mages weren't idle either since they killed the other 8 that was aiming at them.

Shiro only frowned a little since the spiders came very close to shooting their web.

If they did, they would need to dodge or she'll be forced to smack the web out of the air.

*CRRRRRRR

The ground rumbled as more heavily armoured spiders started to roll out from their burrow.

[Spider Tanks LVL 20]

"Healers! Mass heal! Mages and damage dealers! Shred those tankers first! We'll hold back the drones!"

Understanding that the tankers were priority, the mages turned their attention over.

Shiro frowned as she couldn't use any of her large-scale attacks without affecting the raid party.

Reducing their reaction due to the coldness would be detrimental.

Shaking her head, she decided to focus on the shooters and drones.

Suddenly feeling killing intent, Shiro whipped her head around and shot an ice spear towards the healers.

"AHHH!!!" One of the healers screamed drawing their attention.

When they saw the scene, they were shocked.

Shiro's ice spear had penetrated an assassin spider which then branched out and pierce through 5 more assassin spiders.

Clutching her fist, Shiro shattered the spiders into pieces before turning back to the shooters that were about to shoot.

Throwing 4 more spears, she killed two whilst the last one slammed its legs down into the building and shot out a massive ball of web.

"WEB INBOUND! EITHER BREAK IT OR DODGE IT!!!" Jonas shouted out.

Shiro frowned as the web was much larger than she had thought.

'They definitely can't dodge this.' Shiro thought with a frown. The web was too big and fast for them to dodge.

Glancing over at her MP, Shiro decided to bite the bullet and pulled out a MP potion.

Mana gathered in her hands as she spread out her cold aura. The ground started to freeze up slightly as she focused on the web.

Raising up her hand, a giant ice pillar erupted out from the side of a building as it knocked the web away.

The party was speechless seeing the sheer size of the pillar as Shiro quickly drank the MP potion to recover her mana.

She wanted to keep her MP above 50% at all times just in case anything happens. Such as backstabbing.

"NICE SHIRO! EVERYONE! KILL THE TANKERS!" Jonas shouted out.

Seeing as though the field was slightly frozen over, some of the adventurer's had some problems with their foothold so Shiro quickly crouched down and thawed all the ice.

The battle continued with a few close calls with assassins and shooters, but they managed to survive the first challenge.

Sitting down to rest, the healers healed the party.

[So how was it?] Shiro asked Lyrica with a smile.

"How was what?" She replied between pants. During the entire time, she was fighting none stop as she needed to pull her own weight.

[The experience so far. With the shooters, the tanks and the assassins.]

"Oh. Then it's hard. It's stressful and tense." Lyrica replied getting a towel to wipe her sweat.

[Then everything is ok. I would be more inclined to worry if it's easy since it makes a person lower their guard.] Shiro said as Lyrica nodded.

She too understood this fact.

"Alright! Let's have a little discussion about the boss. The next boss is called the spider tyrant. His main weapons are his physical attacks and speed. I want the healers to focus on us tankers since we could be heavily injured at any moment." Jonas said as they nodded.

"The weakness of the spider tyrant lies in its weak underbelly and thin joints. Damage dealers, I want you to focus on these spots."

'But the spinneret of the spider is also a weakness.' Shiro thought. The spinneret of the spider is where they shoot their webs. Naturally, this means an easy hole to strike at their internals.

Lyrica paused seeing Shiro expression. It was the same one she pulled when she asked her to attack the serpents anus, or the cloaca.

"Erm Shiro. You shouldn't strike at the spider's… rear this time. It might overwrite the aggro the tanks get and disrupted the raid team." Lyrica warned.

"…Che." Shiro clicked her tongue seeing the missed opportunity.

'Don't feel like it's a shame ah!?' Lyrica thought.

[Fine. I guess I'll have to do this fight normally then.] Shiro sighed.

Pulling Yin from her pockets, she fed him a D ranked mana stone as she too was feeling a little hungry.

Making sure that no one saw her, she popped a stone into her mouth and started to chew.

"What are you eating Shiro?" Lyrica asked seeing Shiro chew on something.

[Just a sweet I had. Unfortunately, it was the last one.]

"Shame."

The resting period was soon over as the team walked carefully towards the entrance of the burrow.

Guarding the entrance, the Spider Tyrant could be seen.

It was around 7 meters long, 3 meters tall and 4 meters wide.

It had razor sharp teeth, purple armour with red highlights, 4 pairs of legs each looking sharper than the other and eyes all over its body.

[Spider Tyrant LVL 20 – Raid Boss]

HP: 500,000/500,000

MP: 750,000/750,000

"Aim at the eyes, don't draw too much of the aggro. Healers focus on the tanks like we discussed and we can win this easily!" Jonas said as he and the group of tanks charged forwards.

"HAAA!!"

They used their respective aggro skills as the damage dealers where nervous. If they accidentally drew the aggro, they would be gone in an instant.

"DRINK YOUR BULWARK POTIONS!" Jonas shouted out to the tanks.

*CING!

Blocking initial trust of the Spider Tyrant, Jonas grabbed onto the leg as his muscles bulged.

"HAAAA!!!!" He shouted as chipped the razor edge of that leg.

*Crrkkkkk!!!

The Spider Tyrant cried out in anger as it opened it's mouth.

"TANKERS!" He shouted as 3 tankers dashed in front of him and used Shield Wall.

The Spider Tyrant spat out acid as it hit a translucent barrier.

"Tsk!" Shiro clicker her tongue as she saw the acid fly around. The acid could easily fall onto someone causing them serious damage.

Stomping down, she created an ice pillar that touched the acid and froze it entirely.

Thawing her ice, Shiro made an irritated face and gestured towards the spider.

"SPREAD OUT FROM THE TANKERS! DAMAGE DEALERS ATTACK!" Jonas shouted out understanding her annoyance of area of effect.

Shiro and Lyrica nodded at each other as they dashed towards the back of the spider.

Crouching down, Shiro started to construct a ramp as Lyrica started to run up the ramp.

Jumping up, Lyrica twisted her body as she slashed at two of the eyes.

*Crr!

The slash only left a shallow mark as the eyes were mostly unharmed.

Flicking her wrist, Shiro made another ramp as it caught Lyrica.

The Spider was furious as one of the legs shot towards her.

Clutching her fist, Shiro created a rotational dome around Lyrica and deflected the leg off.

Using the momentum from the rotational dome, Shiro created a blade as it slashed towards the leg with increased power.

*BANG!

The blade smashed against the leg, causing a wide fracture to run along the armour.

'That armour's annoyingly tough.' Shiro thought with a frown.

"Thanks Shiro." Lyrica said as she landed next to her.

Shiro nodded as she wanted to give the eyes a stab.

Crouching down, she made an ice pillar under her as she jumped towards the back of the spider.

Forming 5 ice spears around her, she launched them towards one of the eyes as they fused together to one before stabbing towards the eye.

*PUSHI!!

The spear stabbed deeply into the eyes as the Spider Tyrant cranked its body back and cried out from the pain.

Flicking her wrist, Shiro made ramp from the buildings, cushioning her landing. Breathing out heavily, she frowned at her right arm since her manoeuvre just then pushed the limits of her flexibility just then.

"BOMB IT!" Jonas shouted as the tanks had secured the aggro. Now they just needed to bomb it until it only had 1HP and deal a fatal blow.

Opening her palms, Shiro created a nano craft needle and inserted it in an ice spike.

Throwing the spike into the previous wound, her eyes grew cold as she activated needle.

The needle itself wasn't powerful in terms of armour penetration. But when it enters the body, it was another matter in itself.

[Nano Craft Needle LVL 25 (Blue)]

+10 Peirce

Skill: Consume

Consume: Use mana to multiply the amount of Nano Bots present and consume materials near it. The harder the material, the more MP it takes.

MP: 10,000/10,000

She had the idea for this when first saw the nanobots consume everything near it in order to make a certain item.

If she wanted to make a pillar in a wall, the nanobots will devour a portion of the wall to make room for the pillar.

Therefore, using the same function, she crafted this needle that wasn't like her other weapons.

Clutching her hands, she activated the skill.

*CKKKKRRR!!!!!

The spider writhed around feeling itself get eaten from the inside out.

Landing back on the ground, Shiro put another mana potion into her mouth.

"Fuu…." Breathing out slightly, she watched her MP get refilled.

Seeing that everything was in control now, she decided to take the back lines and only attack once every so often.

Though she would use her ice to give Lyrica as many opportunities to attack and gain contribution.

The entire fight lasted 30 minutes as they finally got it to 1HP.

Unfortunately, Jonas lacked the stamina to deal it one final blow.

"Is this really how it ends?" He muttered with gritted teeth.

Their teamwork wasn't flawless, but no one died. That was the best news. However, it would all be for nought if they couldn't even kill the boss.

"Shiro! Do you have anything to give the beast a final blow?!" He shouted out parrying a stab.

'Hmm… I guess it's not too hard.' Shiro thought, keeping an eye on her mana.

[I can, but I'm going to need a few buffs and MP regen.] Shiro typed out as she showed it to him.

"SILVIA! BUFF SHIRO UP!" Jonas shouted out as the faster they kill this spider tyrant the better.

Silvia nodded as she slammed her staff into the ground.

"On my authority as a Grand Healer, cast down and empower." Silvia chanted as a magic circle lit up below Shiro.

[Blessing of Empowerment.]

+10% status for 30 seconds. MP regen +100%

Shiro was surprised to see Silvia having Blessing of Empowerment on top of her Grand Healer class.

She was about to attack when Jonas stopped her.

"Silvia isn't done yet." He smiled.

"Strength of the mighty, speed of the quick, magic of the unknown."

[Tri Status Boost]

+15% STR +15% SPD +15% INT

'Why didn't she use this earlier?!' Shiro thought seeing these buffs. They weren't something a Grand Healer should have unless she studied buffs relentlessly and improved her mana control.

"I know what you're thinking. But Silvia can't use these often." Jonas shook his head.

Shrugging her shoulders, Shiro dashed forwards.

"TANKS FALL BACK!" Jonas called out as he knew Shiro's capabilities. Her large attacks will cause her own teammates danger as they couldn't avoid it.

Spreading out her cold aura, Shiro expended her mana to increase the freezing potential.

*CRRRRR!!!!!

Ice started to build up around the area as the adventurer's started to shiver.

Flicking her wrist, snow started to fall as the area around the spider tyrant became a blizzard.

Yin Style Phantom Arts: 2nd Phantom – Speed Phantom.

Dashing around the back of the Spider Tyrant, Shiro jumped up and was able to get a clear shot of it from above.

Snow started to wrap around her arm as a giant ice sword was being made.

Making a foothold for herself, Shiro made sure it moved as to not put the entire weight of the sword on her body.

Yin Style Phantom Arts: 3rd Phantom – Counter Weight Phantom.

Her tiny body shifted as the momentum of the sword swung towards the head of the spider.

Letting go of the sword, Shiro jumped up and flicked her wrist one last time.

Four ice tendrils shot out of the ground as they grabbed onto the handle of the sword and slashed it downwards, increasing the momentum further.

*BOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The sword slammed into the weak join of the head and decapitated the Spider Tyrant.
