Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first? Chapter 564 - 74 Banshee Queen Minerva

Minerva, a famous high-popularity boss from "Song of Iron and Fire," players aptly nicknad her Queen Miel, Minerva Nas.

She was once a half-elf girl who was surrounded and killed by players in Constantinople. After the fall of Constantinople, an undead wizard from Seljuk resurrected her as an undead banshee.

The sequence of a banshee’s bloodline is Mind Undead Spirit Spiritual Body Curse. A common banshee revived as a servant by an undead mage usually upgrades to Lv.4, activating Level I in each sequence to fully utilize the various bizarre abilities of this bloodline.

However, Minerva was no ordinary banshee. Not only did she rebel against her mage master at Lv.3 and successfully kill him, but she also fled to Mamluk along the east coast of the diterranean.

She then smoothly collected magic potions as if she were rocketing upwards in power, eventually succeeding in condensing her banshee bloodline, and later wandered to the Hafsi Dynasty in Mauritania—a realm of undead mages, becoming a common Undead Lord.

In the fifth version, Minerva had already crossed the threshold of a demigod and beca the top boss of the Undead Army led on an expedition to the Iberian Peninsula. Her major domain law was "Curse," using various debuff skills in the instance to drain players’ desire for victory and life alike.

Even when players finally managed to clear the instance in later versions, they could not story-kill this Banshee Queen, which cented her special heroic status in the ga.

You see, in the main quest instance of the ga, most nad bosses would be permanently removed from the instance upon death. Subsequent players entering the instance would face an unnad mass-produced boss—what’s referred to as a story kill.

However, special NPCs cannot be story-killed. The official explanation for the undead banshee was that she had cast "Undead Curse" on herself, so she would resurrect no matter how she died...

This implies that the developers intended for Minerva to serve as a flagship hero within the villain faction, growing stronger corresponding to the mainstream players’ level upgrades, and constantly accompany (and tornt) players across various expansions.

As expected, Minerva’s level reached the Magic Tide Level Limit of each expansion, rightfully earning her the titles: boss role model, a friend of power players, a must-challenge at max level, eternally relevant.

aning, considering the current ti is in the early phase of the fourth expansion pack with a Magic Tide Level Limit of 20, Miel attempting to summon Minerva from a parallel world would likely encounter her between levels 15-20, still not the demigod-level Banshee Queen... This, likely isn’t enough to defeat the Spiritual Tree.

He was contemplating and about to speak when he heard Miel say,

"The Minerva I want to summon isn’t the Dark Lord from this tiline."

"Instead, it’s the Banshee Queen from 5 years in the future, who has already conquered the Hafsi Dynasty and rules the northern countries of the South Continent, with a level above Lv.35."

Aske was nearly shocked speechless. A level above 35 Banshee Queen? Would that tiline reach the eighth expansion pack, Holy War?

With the current Magic Tide Level Limit only at Lv.20, pulling a big boss from four expansions later isn’t just about destroying the Spiritual Tree—if she wanted to obliterate the Church Court and push across the world, it probably wouldn’t pose much difficulty. You have to rember how many Lv.35 beings there are on the continent at this ti?

"Uh, if it’s the Banshee Queen, then indeed there’s no problem," he carefully chose his words and said, "but you know, the key to this tactic is whether you can successfully pull her into our world."

"You know, the higher the level of the character, the more spirituality is required for summoning and maintenance. Especially for a Banshee Queen of that level, the gap from your own level is too great. Even if Nora and I combined forces to supply you spirituality, we likely couldn’t extend her stay by more than a few seconds."

"I can try," Miel said.

Although she said "try," her expression showed no doubt, as if she had foreseen this attempt would surely succeed.

Being in a mutant environnt, she recieved bonuses to similar types of sequences and Law Abilities. For example, in the last Mind Mutant town, dea’s Mind Vision was greatly enhanced, easily crossing vast distances and swiftly locating another group of girls, functioning nearly like radar.

Since this ti it’s a temporal mutant, enhancing the Fate Law might also make crossing levels to pull characters a plausible feat.

"Let’s give it a try then," Aske considered for a long while before nodding in agreent.

Miel then stepped out of the chapel and ca to an open area outside. She reached her hand into the void beside her; the chaotic temporal phenona around her vibrated and the frequency of changes drastically increased.

Beneath the sleeve around her right wrist, the Eden Fruit, now shaped like a bracelet, also began to emit dense, patterned radiance.

Then she fiercely pulled outward.

What elegantly erged from the void was a young girl clad in a black robe.

She was slightly shorter than Miel, but their facial features were identical. The originally pink hair had turned to a grey symbolizing withering, and her green pupils were now dull, with dark purple eyeshadow beneath. The combination of the girl’s youthful naivety and the banshee’s icy seductiveness created a strangely compelling allure.

"Is this a parallel world?" With a spark of life returning to her once dull eyes, the Banshee Queen looked around and asked.

Her voice was not as crisp and pleasant as Miel’s but was a hoarse, magnetic female rasp. Her cold gaze swept over the girl’s, who appeared on high alert, and finally settled on Miel’s face.

"You’re from a parallel world," said the Banshee Queen, sticking out her bluish-purple tongue and playfully licking her lips, "How interesting—a living being."

"Minerva," Miel stepped forward and seriously said, "I need your help."

"The Spiritual Tree is ravaging this city, and thousands of innocent citizens are falling victim to the mutants. To save them, we must first kill the Spiritual Tree..."

"What does that have to do with ?" the smile on the Banshee Queen’s face was sowhat wicked, "What price can you pay for my help?"

"What do you want?" asked Miel.

"Hmm..." the Banshee Queen circled around her, "How about you let possess you?"

"After all, you are . If I hadn’t died, my body would probably be similar to yours by now. I want to experience what it feels like to be alive again. It’s been a long ti for ."

Before her words had even finished, she suddenly pounced toward Miel!

Before the others could react, the Banshee Queen had already disappeared from her spot, and Miel’s hair began to rapidly wither and fade, with purple eyeshadow erging beneath her eyes.

"The breath of the living, how sweet..." she said sentintally and then looked up at the others.

The next second, she appeared in front of Aske, lifting her small head to gaze at him.

"Are you ’my’ companion?"

"I am Aske," unfazed in the presence of this formidable adversary akin to the Enchanting Demon Queen, Aske replied calmly, "the Squad Leader of The Azure Longsword rcenary Corps, and Miel is an official mber of our team."

"Miel said you were the one who saved her," the Banshee Queen nodded, "You are good."

Her gaze then shifted to dea, suddenly covering her mouth and giggling:

"Oh, isn’t this Bloody Rose Callia? Ah, at this point in ti, you haven’t beco a Demigod yet... Tsk tsk tsk, what a rarity to see such naivety in you, why don’t you call ’Respected Queen Minerva’ to let hear?"
