Chapter 140: Nathan's Plan
Nidhogg flew into the sky, releasing a purple-colored breath.
The giant swung his club. Its size and speed generated a wind pressure that actually repelled the breath to the side.
However, Nidhogg was known as the dragon that brought chaos and destruction. His fire was not the normal fire as the giant expected.
The flame flared up in all directions.
"!!!" The enemies were startled. The first one to react was the orc. With a wave of his sword, it produced a gale that swept the fire forward, causing the flame unable to reach them.
The bandit leader shouted, "Take care of that dragon! It won't be able to fly too high due to his summoning range."
The giant immediately stretched his hand, trying to catch Nidhogg. However, Nidhogg flew away, using his air superiority to gain the upper hand.
Meanwhile, the angel and the fallen angel asked, "What should we do? Which one should we fight?"
As if not giving Nathan to think, the bandit leader waved his hand down. "Attack him!"
"We'll be fighting inside the stronghold. Although it's not big, it should be enough to last for several minutes." Nathan took another glance, looking at the speed of those familiars. "Mr. Angel can take care of the gnoll. Miss Fallen Angel can fight against the desert elf.
"Fenrir. Take care of the orc, will you? He must be a warrior." Nathan playfully winked while jumping off the building.
"Got it." Fenrir nodded. "But are you going to be fine? You will fight against that bandit leader and that rat-person."
"Hehe. Whether it's in the past or present, there is one most effective tactic in the book. Guerrilla Warfare." Nathan smirked. "If I wanted, I could ask you guys to kill those remaining bandits. But I didn't. I'll show you why I spare them."
As soon as they reached an agreement, all four of them turned around, finding them surrounded by the bandits. Since the familiars took the lead, Nathan immediately rushed to the bandits on their back.
"They're coming!"
The bandits raised their weapons, but compared to the summoners, whose physical abilities had been strengthened by Ena, they were nothing to be afraid of.
Nathan made a gun sign with both hands and shot them.
"Arrgghhh!" Several bandits couldn't even stop those bullets as they fell down to the ground. One person even got hit on the chest and died immediately.
"Monster!"
"No. Attack him!"
The bandits had split opinions, but because Nathan was rushing toward them, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and just swing their weapons.
As if he had expected this, Nathan suddenly leaped toward the building on his left and entered it through the window.
"Chase after him!"
"Don't let him use his power!"
While they were in the middle of the confusion, the bandits from outside entered the stronghold. Only the giant was left outside because of his size.
Seeing the bandits come into a building, they were certain that their target was hiding in that building. The four familiars leaped forth, but all of a sudden, swords made of golden light rained them upon the gnoll.
"!!!" The gnoll raised his head and saw the angel on top of the building. He was raising his golden-colored Ena as if preparing another batch of swords.
The desert elf squinted her eyes before looping around the back to ambush the angel, but she abruptly raised both daggers and blocked a black spear from the side. When she turned her head, she saw the fallen angel kicking her in the waist and blowing her away.
The orc and the rat-person were charging together with their summoner and the rest of the bandits.
From a small gap, Fenrir emerged and pounced on the orc. The latter blocked his teeth with his swords, but Fenrir managed to smack the orc away, separating him from the rest of the group.
When he saw this situation, the bandit leader realized they were trying to separate him from the familiars. However, he still had one more familiar with him, and he didn't think he would lose to Nathan in one-on-one.
The leader shouted, "Never mind. All three of you are to stop those familiars. As long as we can defeat the summoner, this battle will end!"
"Oh!" the bandits roared as they stormed in.
All of a sudden, the rat-person stepped forth with his tail in front, blocking several bullets coming from above.
"!!!" The bandit leader raised his head, finding Nathan standing on top of the building.
"You weakling. Even if you bring a thousand people, it won't be enough to kill me." Nathan grinned.
The bandit leader gnashed his teeth, but before he could even use his Ena to jump to the roof, Nathan utilized his most famous technique. Yes, he ran away.
He leaped to the building behind him and hid inside it.
"What are you doing? He is in that building!" The bandit leader was shocked but soon regained his composure. He commanded his subordinates out loud.
The bandits were changing the building, but this time, Nathan had prepared a huge surprise for him. When they were about to come in, several bullets pierced through the windows and hit several bandits.
"Gah!"
"Not good!"
The bandits panickedly opened the door to chase after him, but Nathan simply grabbed a wooden table from that building and tossed it toward the door.
It crashed into two bandits and blocked the path for a moment.
After that, he returned to the second floor, leaped over them, and landed on the road, startling everyone.
"He is over there!"
The bandits turned around and saw Nathan going to a gap between the two buildings. They followed him, but found no one inside. However, they saw a broken window in the right building, so they figured out his current location.
To their surprise, the left building's wall suddenly crumbled, the biggest piece actually hitting the bandits between the two buildings.
Then Nathan took that opportunity to jump into the other building through the broken window. Because of what happened earlier, the bandits didn't know whether to enter through the door or the window, fully aware Nathan would be ready with an attack.
That was why Nathan casually opened the door and formed an explosive bullet, letting it burst right outside the building.
Bam!
Several bandits were blasted away as Nathan grinned at them before closing the door and disappearing once more.
