334 Chapter 333
After giving the order that made him sound like the evil last boss of an RPG, Jorhorn made Earth Spikes rain over the destroyed city. He didn't hold back, so dozens of angels got impaled.
"Hah! Now we are talking!" Ivolaer licked his lips and started to cut to pieces every single creature nearby.

Making good use of Soul Eater, Leon attacked using Thunder Ray and Ice Beam. Surprisingly, the combo of those skills was far more potent than Leon had imagined. Using both of them for twenty seconds was enough to kill most angels... at least those who didn't try to fight.
Unfortunately, without holding back. Jorhorn soon had to take Soul Eater out of Leon's hands. But he was more than satisfied with the result. He managed to level up Ice Beam up to level forty, after all.
A random angel tried to attack Leon, who was keeping a safe distance from them, but it died before it could even move a few meters. Ice Beam slowed them down, and Thunder Ray made them twist in agony... that could be considered torture, but Leon didn't hesitate in exterminating the things that looked at him as if he was a dirty dog.
"I'm using too much mana..."
Leon had an idea, instead of frying them fast, he decided to turn the angels into an ice statue and then recover his mana by killing them using the mithril spear of the devourers, he lost some time doing that. Still, at least he didn't have to leave the battlefield.
Despite the absolute power the harvesters could show, it took two days before they could eliminate all angels that were working on that magic circle. Those who weren't on the center of the continent had to join the battle later, so that was why it lasted for so long. However, since they weren't concentrated and didn't attack at the same time, Leon and the others won. Even if they have absolute power, if they couldn't keep using the skills non-stop to kill all the angels, it wouldn't grant them the victory.

Leon was exhausted after the fight, despite all that, he was smiling... every single angel had more mana than him, so every angel he defeated replenished his mana thanks to the mithril spears of the devourers. Since the monsters around were powerful and he could use their mana, Ice Beam, Thunder Ray, Transfer, Haste, and many other skills leveled up a lot. In fact, in just two days, he grew stronger than he did in three months guarding the mermaids' dungeon.
"Hehehe, and we still have to collect the loot...��
Leon's smile disappeared from his face when he saw Genelosa standing and looking at the remainings of what once had been a megacity. She was looking at everything as if she missed that scenery but didn't recognize anything.
"The hell am I am doing... why getting excited about things like status points... they won't mean a thing unless I return to Earth soon."
Every one of them was more powerful than Leon, but what was the use of their power if they didn't manage to protect their worlds? That question was probably the reason none of them didn't treat Leon like someone pathetic. Inglar and Ivolaer were pretty wild and liked to fight, but they weren't drunk on their own power because they felt powerless like never before when they fled from their respective worlds.
After making a mental note not to fall for that false sense of confidence, Leon started to look for the spoils of war, that was something that it would be foolish to ignore. After all, the angel fled, but everyone was pretty sure he would return with his friends...
With a single exception, all tomes and magic items that the angels dropped were pretty much subpar, or at least Leon already knew them. However, even though he was pretty sure that tome didn't drop by an angel he killed, Leon obtained a new spell.
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Eruption.
Cost: 100 mana
Cooldown time: 10 seconds
You obtained 01 status points.
Although the skill had a cooldown, the duration of the skill was also ten seconds, so it didn't matter. The eruption caused a small eruption under the feet of the target. It was a perfect skill to surprise some foes. Anyway, after resting for a while and letting Genelosa seeing with her own eyes what her world had become in the last twenty years, Jorhorn called everyone.
"That bastard probably is heading to reunite with his allies..." Jorhorn said, visibly annoyed. "Now, we will have to face them all at once."
"Can't we just fill the dungeon with earth, ice, or something to prevent them from using it?" Alurelle asked.
"We can, but I doubt that will stop them," Jorhorn answered. "They probably can travel through outer space in that light form. Most likely, they won't use the dungeons to reach us. If this magic circle is necessary for them and they are doing the same thing on other planets. Then, they will come in the next few days."
"I don't think they will..." Jertien said. "They know that we can use Transfer and have enough mana to reach the nearby planets. Most likely, they will prepare a trap to stop us from escaping first."
That would be the easiest way to deal with Leon and the harvesters at the same time, but it looked like they would have to use one hell of a spell to stop Leon using Transfer from any point of the Celosie...
