The same difficult situation occurred all around the mountains.
"There are so many transformed aliens…" Mae muttered. In front of her, there were at least 80 transformed aliens.
And among them, 8 were warrior class aliens and 2 were mutated warrior class aliens.
Even someone like her was overwhelmed by the sheer number. She had been the one stopping most of the transformed aliens, but a lot of them still slipped past her and reached Orochi and Kun.
It was even worse for Nidhogg and Jinwu.
Nidhogg had been using his breath to clear up the area, but the aliens combined their strength and launched themselves into the sky.
If Nidhogg tried to avoid them, they would try to slip past him and go straight to Nathan. If Nidhogg took them on, they would injure him.
So, even if he scorched a lot of them, the aliens would simply continue.
In fact, he noticed one thing in their current situation. Originally, they mentioned about 2,000 aliens in this place, but just from a single glance, that number seemed to be increasing.
More and more aliens from the area seemed to be called to this area. Before long, that number would reach 3,000, 4,000, or even 5,000. And that was still counting the number of aliens they had killed.
"There is no end to them. We have to somehow kill the two elite class aliens before decimating the army. Once those two elite class aliens are gone, we should have no problem in cleaning up the rest. The reinforcement comes because of them after all." Nidhogg endured the attack and kept flying low enough so that the aliens would continue coming at him instead of Nathan.
On the other side, Jinwu had activated the next level of his divinity.
"Sun Descent!"
A huge fireball appeared on his back and expanded to the size of Nidhogg. This fireball released powerful heat that changed the temperature of the entire place in an instant.
Due to the ash cloud, no sunlight reached the surface, so the average temperature was similar to a normal winter season.
However, the moment this fireball appeared, the temperature warmed up as though the summer had replaced the winter.
Unfortunately, Jinwu couldn't use this power too close to Nathan or he would get distracted.
But this power wasn't meant to change the temperature or anything. It was a ball that carried the power of the sun, as if the sun itself had descended.
Jinwu simply threw it to the ground.
The power of the sun then exploded and spread in all directions.
The aliens were trying to defend themselves or strike the fireball before it reached the ground, sacrificing themselves to protect other aliens.
But to their surprise, the fireball didn't even do any damage to them. They felt hot indeed, but they also had the fire resistance from the black cell.
So, this kind of power was weird even for Jinwu, but that was when Jinwu revealed its true power.
This fireball was useless unless it was paired with his domain.
"Sun Domain!" Jinwu didn't even bother to set up the time this time.
Suddenly, a ray of light pierced through the ash cloud like a laser beam. It fell on top of an alien and burned it to ashes.
More importantly, the beam actually moved toward its next target and burned it as well. It continuously searched for the next target.
Lasers started to fall down one by one. Before they realized it, the ten deathly rays had pierced the cloud and incinerated everything in their path.
The fireball earlier was not a powerful attack. It was a tracker that carried the power of the sun so that his domain could unleash its power. That was why he threw the fireball onto the ground and spread its power.
Unfortunately, even with ten unstoppable lasers, he was unable to stop every single alien. There were simply too many of them here. The only thing he could do was to stay outside the aliens' attack range so that Anubis didn't have to spend any time worrying about him.
But all of his efforts stopped the moment he saw the incoming lightning.
"!!!" Jinwu widened his eyes. "Not good. Watch out, Summoner!"
Jinwu flew toward Nathan without hesitation, but it was too late.
The lightning had struck down.
The lightning didn't look like a normal one because it didn't just stop after hitting the ground. It circled around to create a dome for Nathan.
This was when Jinwu felt something strange. The lightning earlier didn't seem to contain any ena, but the moment it reached the ground, the residual lightning that turned into a dome was covered with ena.
The dome suddenly dispersed, causing the lightning to hit in all directions. Most of the lightning strikes ended up hitting aliens that tried to climb the mountain.
"!!!" Jinwu could get a clear view of what happened. A creature was standing on Nathan's side.
The creature looked like a dog, but its body was bigger and elongated like that of a lizard.
'A dog? A lizard? It's like a dog, but like a lizard. A salamander? But it still looks like a dog…' Jinwu was confused. This was the first time he had seen this kind of being.
Its body looked like a dog, but it was deformed in a way that made it look like a lizard. It also had the traits of a lizard, but it was deformed in a way that it could be said to be a dog.
This creature was the one responsible for that lightning bolt. No, it could be said that he was the one who attracted the lightning bolt. It wasn't a natural phenomenon.
The creature let out a fire breath, but unlike the sun fire or the chaos flame, this flame was black.
Once it hit the targets, it caused the aliens to dry up as if their lives had been sucked away. Even the ground became dry from being grazed by the fire.
Then, a bolt of black lightning fell from the sky. The lightning hit the ground and dispersed in all directions, the same way as the lightning dome earlier. But the previous lightning wasn't black, while this one was black.
This lightning caused the same type of injury as the flame, which sucked away their lives.
This was Nathan's new familiar, the ninth familiar.
