BXBX NOVEL Chapter 340: Nathan's Choice
"Can you handle all these mature class aliens if I can take care of the rest of the aliens?"
"Three mature class aliens and one mutant, huh?" Flora paused for a moment. "Noelle and I once killed a warrior class alien, but our individual level is not at that level yet. If these four are just normal mature class aliens, I might be able to do it, but I might have to use everything I have, including my familiars, to handle the mutant alone.
"So, it\'s impossible." Flora shook her head, disappointed that she wasn\'t strong enough.
Nathan, on the other hand, squinted his eyes, thinking about the situation. They had been surrounded, and the enemies left them with only a little time.
\'Someone must have set this up. Who is their target? Is it Flora? Or is it me? Regardless, if we try to break through, there\'s a chance that the other six mature class aliens that haven\'t reached this area are following right behind them. In that scenario, we might not be able to break through even with Flora.
\'In addition, it also means we\'re abandoning the mission. All the people will die. While I\'m not necessarily a hero, leaving people behind without fighting back gives a bad taste to my mouth.
\'Should we fight? Should we ask the supervisor to evacuate the mine? No. We don\'t have enough time.\'
Nathan\'s expression turned grim.
"Nathan." Flora pointed to the west. "Should we escape? I will bear the responsibility. Although you will hate me for saying this, a summoner\'s life is much more precious than that of a normal person. After all, only less than 1% of the population in this world is a summoner."
Nathan squinted his eyes.
\'I have three ways to solve this problem. The first is to use the contract to grant me godlike ability. I haven\'t tried it yet, but I might be able to get space or time ability. Then again, time will require a lot of Ena since I might end up altering the entire world\'s time or even the universe? The space is the same. If I end up using thousands of Ena to use that kind of ability for a few minutes, I\'d rather summon another familiar.
\'Or maybe other abilities are enough? I will end up showing my cards to Flora, and I don\'t know what will happen after that. But it\'s better than dying here.
\'The second solution is to call for help. If the Sleeping Garden reveals themselves, they should be able to resolve this situation easily. At least Evelyn has that strength.
\'However, if the mastermind is aiming at me, they will realize I\'m the threat, not the Sage. I will end up facing more trouble.
\'Last but not least, summoning a new divine beast. I currently have about nineteen thousand Ena. I can use ten thousand and the rest to bring up one familiar to ten thousand Ena mark. They can handle one mature class alien each.
Chapter Read:
\'Sera and I will handle the last mature class alien, while Flora takes care of the mutant. The problem in this scenario is what to do against the lower-level aliens. They\'ll be running rampant and killing a lot of people.
\'Is there another summoner in the mine? If there are multiple summoners, we might be able to take care of this situation. But it will change if the other mature class aliens will be coming as well…
\'Or should I just escape from here? It will be bad if we\'re surrounded by all ten mature class aliens, but I don\'t have to reveal my card.\'
Nathan never thought he would face this dilemma. When he read novels, he couldn\'t care less about the people in that world. If they were massacred, he considered those people as random people and didn\'t put much thought into it.
After coming to this world, he knew that was not true.
When he came to a military camp, he saw all the soldiers tearing up for their comrades who had fallen on the battlefield. Those people had their families as well.
Their expressions, their words, their farewell...everything was planted in his mind.
In the past, Noelle was once forced to undergo a summoning ritual, resulting in the incomplete ritual.
"Nathan! We don\'t have a lot of time yet!" Flora once again warned him. She was about to take over and make the best decision for the group.
"Make a choice you will never regret in your life…" Nathan took a deep breath. Out of all the options he had, he really needed to enter the mine. Nathan asked, "Can your spirits strengthen the mine? Just make sure we\'re able to hold out for a bit… Ten minutes is fine."
Flora thought for a moment before nodding her head. "I can."
"In that case, let\'s go to the mine. I\'ll be summoning my fourth familiar and we\'ll resolve this situation. We don\'t have a lot of time, so we\'ll have to kill all these aliens within a short amount of time."
"Inside the mine? Summoning your fourth familiar? Are you insane? Do you even bring any items to do that?" Flora looked worried. After all, she didn\'t want Nathan to suffer the same fate as Noelle.
To her surprise, Nathan smiled. "I\'m completely fine. Besides, I have a replacement."
"Replacement?"
Nathan suddenly ran toward a certain tree and used all his strength to pull the tree out.
"A tree? That\'s… a mulberry tree?"
"Yeah. I need your help to bring this to the mine. The entrance is small, so I need your full strength to make sure it enters the mine. I will bring Sera."
"Are you sure about this?"
"There\'s an awesome guy in the past that told me this… \'Do what you need to do so that you don\'t regret your choice at the present. If you worry about everything, you won\'t be able to make a decision. Instead, use every bit of your wisdom to solve the problem that will come because of your choice.\' That\'s why I\'m fine."
Flora bit her lips. This was her fault. She was so adamant about bringing Nathan and Sera here that she ended up ruining their future.
But the enemy was chasing after Nathan. Even if she didn\'t bring him here, they would definitely do it at a later date.
