After the 9th Chaos Orb was detonated and more than 4 hours have already elapsed, one of the Wind Elementals has finally detected something approaching from the north direction.

Soon, the Wind Elemental could finally see a Green Eagle Flyingboat flying up the sky swiftly with the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm closely following behind.

"They have finally arrived!" Leo quickly informed Cassandra and the others before going in a specific direction riding on the top of one of his Earth Elementals that he had quickly summoned on its Golem form.

Cassandra and the others quickly stopped fighting against the Magical Beasts as they dashed forward behind Leo, soon after jumping on top of the Golem to follow him towards the direction of Ethan's group.

They didn't bother covering the tunnel or anything anymore, as there wasn't really anything inside. All of their stuff was already inside their Storage Rings and both the holes down below, specifically the other entrance to get inside their temporary base and the hole Leo had used to have a vision to the Sandstone Mother Spider, were also already blocked. So, even if any Magical Beasts get inside, it wouldn't be a problem or anything of the likes.

After a few minutes of the journey, Leo and the others finally saw the Green Eagle Flyingboat that Ethan's group is riding on.

At the same time, Ethan also noticed Leo's group presence in front of them.

"Leo?" Ethan was dumbfounded the moment he saw Leo. Weren't they supposedly underground? How did they appear on the surface?

What shocked Ethan the most was that Leo was actually telling them to turn around by using the signs of his hand.

"Is he perhaps telling us to go the other way around?" Edward who was standing beside Ethan said.

"I think, he is saying that we should go to the side," Chief Lago said.

"Just continue with what you are doing, I'll go down and talk to him to confirm his words," Ethan said before flying towards Leo's direction.

Leo can't help heaving a sigh of helplessness the moment he saw Ethan flying off to meet him. It was very easy to guess from Ethan's action that they didn't understand what he meant, or even if they do, they weren't sure about it.

With Ethan being a 1st Galaxy Mage, he was faster than the Green Eagle Flyingboat. So, it only took him a minute and a half to arrive in front of Leo.

"Leo, what are you doing here?" Ethan immediately asked the moment he arrived in front of Leo.

Leo didn't bother replying to that question as he quickly went to the main point saying, "Quickly tell your group to turn around. You don't need to lure the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm towards the Sandstone Mother Spider's nest anymore,"

Ethan was immediately rendered in shock beyond belief after hearing Leo's words. He can't even help thinking to himself whether he heard it correctly or not, which he confirmed a few seconds later that he didn't hear it wrong.

"Wh... why?"

"No time to explain, just lure the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm away from this place. I'll explain later,"

"But..."

"Here,"

Before Ethan could explain something, Leo immediately thought of shutting his mouth by giving him 10 Chaos Orbs.

However, contrary to Leo's expectation though, Ethan's face turned solemn instead as he replied, "It's not about whether we have more of these powerful items or not. Do you really think it's easy to lure a Magical Beast tribe, especially if it has a Beast Lord leading them?!"

Ethan finally can't hold himself from blurting out how difficult it was to do what Leo wanted them to do. In fact, although they could indeed complete what Leo wanted, he believes that they would have to sacrifice the Green Eagle Flyingboat just to successfully achieve that. He knew clearly that it's very possible to lure the Magical Beast tribe of the Sandpit Worm away from this place, but once they are done with that, it would be very difficult for them to escape.

Leaving the Green Eagle Flyingboat just to escape? Even if a fool was in their shoes right now, they would still not casually choose to do that because the Green Eagle Flyingboat is very helpful for them.

"To tell you the truth, we can't no longer easily escape from the pursuit of the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm. They would keep on chasing after us until they caught us, and you already know the reason for why is that. From our meeting before, we have already discussed together that our only possibility of escaping is during the expected fight of the Sandpit Worm tribe against the Sandstone Spider tribe. But now that it won't be happening, even if we could indeed lure away the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm, the next problem would be how should we escape." Ethan didn't bother hiding anything anymore. Their situation was already very dire right now, so hiding anything would just be very stupid of him.

Leo's face turned solemn right after hearing Ethan's words. It wasn't because Ethan had dared to speak to him in such a manner, in fact for him it's much better this way. Rather, because he finally understood just how much trouble Ethan's group was having right now. After all, what they have discussed before was purely assumptions. At first, he really thought that it was still manageable, especially if he gave them 10 Chaos Orbs. But now, he realized just how foolish his thought was.

But of course, there is still a way!

"Prepare to engage!" Leo said as he took out his Death Wake Dagger from his Storage Ring and replaced the ordinary dagger in his dagger socket by his waist.

"Do you have any plan?" Ethan can't help himself from asking. He was really curious what kind of plan Leo has thought about.

"Yes," Leo replied before taking out even more Chaos Orbs and giving it to Charlotte and Ethan, giving them 30 pieces of Chaos Orbs in total. He soon added, "Both of you, go up the Green Eagle Flyingboat and drop all of this to the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm to escape."

"We have already seen just how much damage this item could cause. Although it's indeed powerful, it's not enough to defeat them," Ethan explained.

"Just leave the rest to me," Leo didn't bother explaining. He turned to look at Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Veronica, and Ash as he passed them 10 pieces of Chaos Orbs each. He doesn't plan on hiding it from them anymore, given their current circumstances at this moment. Ethan and the others were much more important for him compared to his mere secret of having Chaos Orbs. And besides, he could trust them.

"Bury these items over there," Leo pointed a few hundreds of meters behind them. He then turned to look at Ethan and said, "And you will lure the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm over there."

"Don't waste any more time, quickly proceed with the plan." Leo said before quickly creating a car.

"Once you're done with that, leave the rest to me!" Leo said as he soon sent an order to the Wind Elementals and Water Elementals to run the car.

Whooooosh!

Although Cassandra and the others were really shocked at what they were holding right now, but seeing how serious Leo was, they quickly pulled themselves together before proceeding with the plan. They didn't even bother expressing their surprise at seeing what Leo was riding right now as they quickly focused on the most important thing.

Charlotte and Ethan swiftly flew up the Green Eagle Flyingboat as fast as they possibly could.

On the other hand, Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Veronica, and Ash quickly made their way towards the place Leo had pointed at. As soon as they arrived at their destination, they right after began setting up the trap.

On the other hand, Leo drove his car towards the direction of the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm. He was planning on doing something really dangerous, but at the same time has a high chance of succeeding.

As soon as Charlotte and Ethan arrived back on the Green Eagle Flyingboat, they immediately told the others the new plan.

Edward, Sele, Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre nodded their heads as they quickly went to the war weapons. While Chief Lago on the other hand focused himself on the wheel of the Green Eagle Flyingboat.

Whooosh!

Whooosh!

Whooosh!

After a few minutes, the war weapons finally began firing the Chaos Orbs randomly towards the formation of the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm.

But unlike before, the Chaos Orbs this time didn't explode as soon as it arrived on their target, rather it just disappeared within the formation of the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm.

Edward, Sele, Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre were immediately dumbfounded after seeing this.

"I forgot to tell Leo to give me the control of the Chaos Orbs!" Ethan exclaimed as his face turned ugly.

"You fool!" Elaine smacks the back of Ethan's head, expressing to him her irritation. She can't believe that with how dangerous their situation is right now, her husband actually still forgot such an important thing!

"This..." Chief Lago began sweating profusely.

"No," Charlotte said as she turned to look at the direction of the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm.

As soon as Charlotte said that, the Chaos Orbs finally exploded.

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

Loud explosions erupted, with the Chaos Mana right after beginning their rampage.

Noticing that, Edward, Sele, Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre quickly pulled themselves together and right after continued firing the war weapons.

Whooosh!

Whooosh!

Whooosh!

Ethan, Elaine, and Chief Lago quickly turned solemn again as they focused on their main task.

At this very moment, inside the car, Leo's face is very solemn while fully focused on the Chaos Orbs firing out from the war weapons of the Green Eagle Flyingboat, waiting for the perfect timing to detonate them again.

"Now,"

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

As soon as the Chaos Orbs exploded, Leo immediately began controlling the Chaos Mana to focus on killing those weaker Sandpit Worms, intending on increasing the amount of Chaos Mana first.

ROAAAAAAR!

ROAAAAAAR!

ROAAAAAAR!

Painful cries of the Sandpit Worms being turned into mere dust sounded in every location where the Chaos Mana was present.

"Again,"

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

Another batch of Chaos Orbs exploded, adding more Chaos Mana in the formation of the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm.

Finally, with how many casualties the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm was receiving due to the rampaging Chaos Mana, the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm finally decided to stop pursuing the Green Eagle Flyingboat and focused on eliminating the Chaos Mana. Because of this, the Green Eagle Flyingboat was finally able to escape from their pursuit.

Ethan and everyone riding on the Green Eagle Flyingboat can't help themselves from cheering loudly. All of a sudden though, below them, they soon noticed that Leo was actually still going towards the direction of the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm.

"What is he doing?!" Charlotte exclaimed in worried. She wanted to fly in Leo's direction and help him with whatever he was planning to do, but Ethan was quickly able to stop her.

"He said to leave the rest to him, so he should be planning on doing something very incredible again. Let's just trust him. In the meantime, let's bring Cassandra and the others on board first, to avoid any unexpected variables from happening." Ethan blocked Charlotte's path while signaling to Chief Lago to hover down to pickup Cassandra and the others.
