Chapter 317: Enemy's Reinforcement
"Nathan. We are ready. I have seen all of them! The normal people seem to have gathered around those three hills. They are not strong, but they'll be annoying.
"The summoners are in that spot! You should be able to see them if you climb this tree." Sera pointed at the tree behind her.
As soon as Nathan saw them, he smiled.
"Should we do it now?"
"Yep. Your Synchronization should be enough for now." Nathan raised his palms. Ena started to leak out of his palms and gradually formed spheres.
Due to Sera's Synchronization as well as sixteen thousand Ena.
But before he shot, there was one trick that Nathan wanted to use.
Before he released them, Nathan actually fused them with each other.
Because he had sixteen thousand Ena now and better control, he was able to conjure 40 bullets from each hand. The bullets were also stronger compared to what he usually created.
"Unfortunately, my control doesn't allow me to fuse all of them. I can only create ten composite bullets. The remaining sixty bullets have to wait.
"Let's go, shall we?" Nathan smirked and shot those bullets into the sky.
The people were shocked by these bullets.
"Enemy attack!" They shouted, warning each other.
Rain was the strongest, but because it came from the sky, the sunlight hindered him from reading their trajectories.
As a result, he had no choice but to form a shield with his Ena. Still, he was a knight before, so he usually fought in close combat. As a result, his shield was not big and strong enough to cover anyone else aside from him.
"Kh." Rain blocked those bullets coming at him. "What kind of firepower is this? They're at my level?"
Two summoners shielded themselves by relying on their familiars. The first one created a hut made of stone, while the summoner released the barrier to reinforce it. The second one had a familiar created a shield for them.
The other two created the same shield, but instead of staying in their spots, they simply ran as far as possible.
And that was where the composite bullets came in.
The first summoner widened his eyes as his shield was shattered into pieces because of a single bullet. Even his rock hut was destroyed.
"Not good!" The familiar pushed him away, but it was too late. Three bullets destroyed the half-destroyed hut and pierced their bodies.
"Master. Get away! There are some weird bullets!" The other summoner had his familiar warn him. Unfortunately, he was one of the two summoners who stayed in their spot.
The composite bullets carrying three times the power of the bullet hit their barrier and shattered them. The familiar wanted to save the summoner, but to no avail. They both took several hits and died on the spot with multiple holes in their bodies.
Those who ran away from the bullet rain managed to survive, but they took quite a beating as well.
The composite bullets hit them. One of the summoners had his leg shot by the composite bullet and completely obliterated that leg. The other one had one of his familiars dead.
Only Rain didn't suffer any injuries because there were only a few bullets hitting him. In fact, those bullets were the normal ones.
Lees and the others couldn't help but drop their jaws to the ground.
"That rain… It has the same strength as my ability. It looks like it has been boosted by Synchronization, but it's clear that even in its base form, the owner has the amount of Ena required to take down a mature class alien." Lees sucked a cold breath. "He has that much power when he is only a first-year student?"
Eliot was completely shaken. He couldn't believe it.
On the other hand, Lisa finally understood where Nathan's confidence came from. 'Despite having such power, he didn't fight for the leader's position… He must have realized that fighting for that position would just cause the group to break apart, which was something he couldn't afford to have. It seems we have been underestimating the guy called Nathan…'
"Attack them!" Nathan shouted.
Fenrir and the others charged forward, trying to finish the two summoners who managed to survive.
"You bastard!" Rain shouted in anger and rushed toward them. He repelled Fenrir and Brunhild personally. His familiars also clashed with the rest.
Nathan personally didn't target them. Instead, he summoned yet another volley of bullets.

The other summoners immediately raised their stances, trying to stop those bullets even though they were not confident.
Lees immediately shouted, "We are going to help them!"
Lisa and Eliot followed suits, ambushing the weaker summoners. They had to reduce their numbers somehow.
Those weaker summoners wanted to put up a fight, but it didn't seem to be necessary.
When Nathan released his bullets, they all flew into the sky and spread in all directions.
"!!!"
"He is aiming for the rest of the bandits!"
They panicked because there was no way they could win against these bullets.
But before they could do anything, a shadow jumped into the air and spun his body, creating a humongous lightning sphere that isolated all those bullets before they spread further.
The bullets ended up getting electrocuted to smithereens, neutralizing Nathan's attack.
"!!!" All of them couldn't help but raise their heads, finding two people. The one stopping that attack was none other than Davei, the boss of the bandit group.
"Boss!" The two summoners looked happy. The rest of the bandits also cheered.
"I thought it's weird that only three people would be here, but as I expected, there's an ambush. However, this is the end. You won't gain any more advantage against—!" Before he finished his words, a light pillar shot up into the sky.
Everyone was startled and followed the light, which turned out to be coming from the ground.
If they traced it back, there was actually a hole behind Nathan's body. That hole was created by his Ena bullet and ended up killing yet another summoner from their side.
"You…" Everyone was speechless.
"Oops." Nathan's smile was provoking the bandit boss as he said in a condescending tone. "My hand slipped."
