"Achoo!" Leon sneezed.
Leon already knew that deserts were cold at night, but to know something and feel it with his own flesh were two very different things. Thanks to Inglar's fire magic, the nights in the tower were pretty warm. So, Leon started to wonder if he also would have to endure the scorching desert during the day and the freezing of the nights in order to use those dungeons.
"I guess it was a sacrifice I will have to make… all for those sweet, sweet status points."
If Leon was having a hard time dealing with the harsh weather, the harvesters and angels looked pretty much okay with them. They weren't wearing any extra pieces of clothing, and the angels were even sleeping on the sand. That was quite brave considering that the fire earthworms could attack them quickly like that, or perhaps they already traumatized those creatures and now didn't have to worry about them.
"It looks like this group of angels is bigger than the one we faced before," Jertien said.
"It won't be a problem," Jorhorn said. "As long as we attack like before, they won't have any chance to run away or try to fight. We have enough mana to pull this off several times, so don't hold back."
Like before, Leon's job would be to oversee the battlefield from above. So, he flew up and went to his position, even from his current height, he could see the dungeon was spawning chimeras. Since he already created some weapons using them, he didn't want to stay on that dungeon for long.
"I guess the variety of monsters will also decrease the more the planets get deeper and deeper on the assimilation process."
It wasn't a good idea to assume things, but Leon couldn't help but doing it so anyway. Even Earth had several dungeons that spawned the same type of monsters, after all. Regardless, Leon was itching to test his Thunder Ray on the angels. His job was to stop them in case some try to run, even though Gravity was more efficient, he could afford to spend some mana since only a few would be able to survive the full combo of the harvesters.
Just like before, Inglar 'warmed' things up with his fire magic and a big dramatic entrance. Jertien followed his lead and made it rain Ice Meteors around his friend. After that, Ivolaer cast a Thunderstorm and fried the angels that didn't die after the first two waves of attacks. One lightning bolt fell on Inglar's right shoulder… it was clear that had been intentional, Inglar looked at Ivolaer annoyed, but he just shrugged. Much to Leon's surprise, even though that camp had more enemies, those three alone finished every single angel in a matter of seconds… Leon didn't even have the chance to test Thunder Ray.

"It is obvious, but I'm not the only one who grew stronger in the past few months… in fact, their growth is much more noticeable. Their recovery is also higher, and they can store energy… so they can level up their skills much faster."
Putting those thoughts aside, Leon started to look for loot, but only a few crappy magic items had been found.
"We have to move," Jorhorn declared. "Ismenria, you will guard this dungeon. The others will come with me to the next camp."
"You should have told me that earlier!" Ismenria stomped on the ground. "If I knew I would be the one who would guard the first dungeon, I would have brought my bed!"
"… This place isn't for you to relax," Jorhorn sighed. "It is to grow stronger. We don't know what might happen at the other camps, so don't drop your guard."
The next dungeon was thirty kilometers away from their location, so it wouldn't be surprising if a team of angels noticed the noise and came to investigate. So, they couldn't waste time. Despite the cloudy weather, they had Leon to scout ahead and see if any angels were coming, He found a group of them heading toward the dungeon they attacked. So, he used his Thunder Ray inside the clouds to alert the harvesters. The angels didn't even imagine their enemies had created that phenomenon. Regardless, those six angels got easily crushed.
Ten minutes later, Jorhorn gave the sign for another attack to begin. This time, Inglar, Ivolaer, and Jertien combo didn't finish the enemies off. So, Leon had time to use Thunder Ray on a couple of angels that tried to attack the harvesters from above. Despite catching them off-guard, Leon didn't manage to kill the angels… even with the rings, he only managed to stop them from moving. The angels recovered from damage Leon was caused almost immediately.
"Shit… it needs even more power, huh."
It couldn't be helped due to the circumstance, but Leon would have to level up Thunder Ray and put a lot of points in intelligence before he finally obtains the power to defeat angels alone.
