The unexpected arrival of a Marquess, a Diamond-grade BOSS, was certainly beyond Howard's predictions!
Not just Howard, even Caitlin and Glyn, both seasoned adventurers in major dungeons, hadn't anticipated such a possibility.
After all, according to past patterns, the monster ranks within dungeons wouldn't vary by more than two tiers, and level gaps wouldn't exceed 15 levels!
No one could have foreseen the vast disparity in the strength of the BOSS within the Castle of Vampires Ruins.
However, the battle had already commenced, and regardless of the unexpected turn, Howard and his team had no choice but to immerse themselves in the fight.
As the tidal wave of Crimson Bats was about to strike, Howard, without any hesitation to unveil his full strength, leaped forth.
To the astonishment of Abby and Caitlin, he charged headlong into the onslaught of the Crimson Bat surge.
