Chapter 1045 The Battle Begins

As soon as Ning arrived in front of a sprawling city somewhere in Brazil where the only sound was that of the dungeon monsters running wild through the empty city, he left Sorlus and the others and teleported again.

He arrived somewhere in the USA as that was the place with the most people for now. He could also go to Canada, Mexico, and other close locations with dungeons in it.

A spear appeared on his hand and he moved.

The monsters had yet to reach the group of human hunters that were waiting for them to come. He appeared in their midst with a massive spear domain around him as he cut many of the monsters at once.

Wolves, skeletons, Basilisk, rats, golems, goblins, orcs, and many other types of monsters all died within a few minutes.

There were a few still remaining, but Ning left. He had other places he needed to help. He appeared somewhere else and killed a bunch of the monsters again before leaving for another location.

This time around, the monsters and humans had clashed, so he couldn't instantly kill them all. Instead, he had to go for the backline to even have a bit of freedom. He killed many of the beasts there before disappearing again.

When he arrived at the next location, he paused for a second. To his surprise, there was someone very strong in this place that was already fighting someone else.

Ning looked at the person and realized that he knew her. "It's her," he thought to himself.

This was the same girl he had met a long time ago when he came to the USA to help them right after the tragedy had happened.

She was a newly formed Apostle with the power from Stryxus himself, who Ning had killed just a day later.

'Did Stryxus not take it back?' he thought. Now that he thought about it, he had killed Stryxus in his inner world, and as such, he had no way of communicating with the outside, and thus could not take back his power.

That was the reason why his girl still had her power, despite everyone else having already lost it all.

'Well, this place is safe then,' he thought and disappeared again.

His divine sense captured a massive surface area of earth, and he used that to decide which place he needed to help the most and which place he could ignore.

Saphandra flew through the air with the other 3 spirits following her. She was able to communicate with them through her connection with Ning and could thus ask them to do a few things for her.

"Terra, block them," she said and Terra constructed a massive earthen wall to block monsters from coming forward. At the same time, giant earth walls formed all around them, putting them all in what was essentially a prison.

"Gray, kill them," she said.

Gray gave a happy laugh like jingling bells and flew through the walls appearing on the other side.

The many monsters did not even notice Gray, as they only searched for a way to get out of this place.

However, with Gray there, they no longer had to search for anything. Within seconds, their body grew old and they lost all the powers inside of them. They died of old age and fell to the ground, completely dead.

"Come back," Saphandra said and Gray came back to them. He jingled a bit, and Saphandra gave him a look of approval, making him jingle even more.

"Void, take far away in the direction," she said, and Void used his space powers to teleport them around to another location, where they quickly flew to find the next location of a battle.

Ely was far above in the atmosphere with her eyes closed. Her artifacts were flying all around the continents and she saw everything from there as if she was a god of this planet.

Her god-like sense saw the person that was being attacked by a zombie-like monster. With a single thought, a cloud that was floating in the sky shot down lightning, hitting the monster and saving the man.

On another location, she saw a group of monsters gathered in a narrow location. She moved her hand and a massive sword appeared in the sky right above the monsters, which shot down to kill them all in one shot.

She took back the sword and looked at another location.

Her brother, Chase was fighting the monsters, but the monsters were weak so he wasn't having any trouble.

After all, these monsters were B-rank or A-rank at best. However, that wasn't any consolation at all.

After all, the monsters were still coming out of the dungeon by the minute, increasing in numbers even when many were killed. The worst part was, they were getting increasingly strong.

He thought moved and it started raining in another location. Each drop of water fell as if bullets shot from a machine gun, and they riddled the monsters below in many holes, killing even the worst of them easily.

Her thought moved again, and a cannon mounted on top of a building shot directly in front of the dungeon, causing a massive explosion that killed everything there.

She helped here, and then in another location. Her hands killed in one place and saved in another.

She was helping them all when she noticed something flying through the sky. "A nuke?" she thought.

Russia seemed to have launched a nuclear weapon, despite knowing that there were hunters there.

Ely frowned slightly. "Stop using these puny weapons," she said as he reached out.

As if transcending space and time, her hand appeared in another location that grabbed onto the nuclear missile and threw it towards the sky.

The nuke exploded somewhere outside the atmosphere, and then she went back to helping.

She continued helping for about an hour before she noticed something.

"Ning," she contacted him as concerns started brewing in her head.

Ning saw the same thing as well. "I should have expected as much," he said as he saw what had started coming out of the dungeons at this point.

Demons.
