The moment they arrived near the base, everyone could immediately see that the other members from the different locations were also experiencing the same thing as them. A Magical Beast hoard has also appeared at their side as well.

As soon as everyone arrived at the base, the drawbridge was immediately lifted up and the thick wooden gates were right after closing. The improvised war weapons on the top of the walls were soon after loaded and ready to fire any time.

At the side, the three Green Eagle Flyingboats were already preparing to fly up for an emergency retreat the moment the situation turns out for the worst.

"We have already put inside as many Magical Beasts as we can fit in the three Green Eagle Flyingboats,"

"Everyone is present, we have no casualties yet,"

"Charlotte and Elvis along with the Savage Fox Slayer team has already returned,"

"....."

A lot of reports were being sent to Leo at every passing minute. And as soon as those reports come, he would quickly inform them of what to do next.

"Good, then just tell the Captains of the three Green Eagle Flyingboats to prepare for an emergency retreat whenever we needed it,"

"Gather all of them on the top of the walls to prepare for battle,"

"Tell Charlotte and Elvis to bring their team and come here as soon as possible,"

"....."

As soon as they received Leo's reply, they immediately leave to execute the order.

"Are we really going to fight?" Cassandra can't help asking.

"As long as our gates are not yet breached by those Magical Beasts, we will continue fighting. Only Fate knows whether we would lose or win this battle," Leo replied.

The battle is not completely determined yet, and they also still have a chance to win it. That's why they should stay and fight first, then just decide on whether they should retreat or not when the situation is finally not in their favor. If they retreat now and find out that they could actually win the battle later on, then it would certainly become one of the very regretful thing for them.

Moreover, which is something he hadn't mentioned to anyone yet; even though they only have a 1% to 11% chances of winning the battle right now, but the moment he adds the Doombringer to that, then more or less they would have 70% to 80% chances of winning.

This was the main reason why he wasn't really worried right now, because the moment he revealed the Doombringer, the chances of turning the table to their favor are very high.

The only problem left is who he should give the Doombringer to, specifically Chief Lago or Charlotte. In his opinion, only both of them could really bring out a certain extent of the Doombringer's Magic Power, considering that they are at the 9 Star level.

If he gives the Doombringer to anyone else, like for example Dan, then it would be impossible for him to cast a Magic spell with a strength of 9 Star level or above.

Considering their current situation right now, he really can't afford to do such a thing as it might just cause them some unnecessary troubles that could affect them negatively. At that time, the high chance of turning the table in their favor would be gone, which is something he really doesn't want.

Between a Mage which is Chief Lago, and a Battle Mage, which is Charlotte, the former could cast a much more powerful Magic spell compared to the latter, but the latter could, in turn, use a Magic weapon like the Doombringer much better than the former.

But taking into consideration that the Doombringer is a Magic Staff, then the better candidate should be Chief Lago because a Magic Staff's main purpose is to increase the Magic Power of a Magic spell more than what the other Magic weapons of the same level could offer.

However, due to his limited knowledge about the Battle Mage, he's having second thoughts as well that may be the Doombringer is much suited for Battle Mages.

That's the reason why he had called out Charlotte because she knows herself better than anyone else. He also called out Elvis because he's an Information Dealer, thus he should know a lot of information about the Battle Mages, just maybe though...

Although he's not really sure about Elvis knowing a lot of information about the Battle Mages. After all, the both of them haven't yet worked together for a long period of time. But one thing is for certain though, if he wants to know about the answer to that question, then he should ask Elvis about it.

Soon, Charlotte, Elvis, and everyone from the Fox Slayer team finally arrived. Right after, the other Executives, Chief Lago, Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre have also arrived.

"Our situation right now doesn't really look that good, but if we just retreat now, then all of the efforts we have spent here for the past few days would just turn into nothing. I don't want that, and neither do any of you want that as well," Leo said while looking solemnly at all the Executives.

"What we want is to clear this Green Area with all the Magical Beasts that inhabit it and then return back to Emerald City to exchange all of them for a lot of points. Only by doing that could we call the efforts we have spent here worth it!"

"However, I'm not an unreasonable person, nor am I a greedy guy. You all know me already about how much I hate troublesome things, so if the situation really becomes troublesome, then you can count on me that I will not hesitate to immediately issue a retreat order. But you also know that even if it's troublesome, I don't just back out easily without a fight,"

"So what I'm planning to do here is to fight until our gates are breached by the Magical Beasts. If the gates aren't breached yet, then we will continue on fighting," Leo said before turning around to look at the incoming Magical Beast hoard in front.

"In this battle, we don't intend to capture the Magical Beasts anymore, but at the same time, we also don't intend to just kill all of them since that's no different to just retreating back to Emerald City. After all, a dead Magical Beast is equal to zero points,"

Cassandra and all the Executives quickly turned to look at each other, all of them showing a confused look on their faces as they don't really understand what Leo meant with his words.

"Right now, all of you might all be wondering; if you don't want to capture those Magical Beasts but also don't want to kill all of them, then what should we do?" Leo said before slowly smiling mischievously. He pointed his hand at the 7 Star Green Fur Ape before saying, "Simple, we will only kill the Leader of the Magical Beast hoards around us. I'm not really a hundred percent sure if the same rules apply to all Magical Beast tribes when we kill their Leader, but one thing is for certain though, once we kill their Leaders, then their followers would start feeling fearful and it would plant the thought of wanting to retreat back to their base,"

"Once that happens, we will then grab this opportunity to inflict even more fear until eventually the majority of the Magical Beasts would start retreating back to their base. At that time, it means that we have successfully defeated the Magical Beast hoards, thus allowing us to continue with our operation, do you all understand?" Leo finally finished saying what he's planning to do.

Leo's plan was fairly simple, kill all the Leaders of the Magical Beasts to inflict fear on the rest of the Magical Beasts, then kill more powerful Magical Beasts to inflict even more fear until all of the Magical Beasts retreat back to their base.

However, there is a single problem though...

"I'm good with your plan, but there's a problem... How should we handle the Savage Foxes?" Elvis can't help asking.

Indeed, the problem still remained to be the Savage Foxes. From the beginning until now, the Savage Foxes has always been the problem.

It's the Savage Foxes that had most likely thought of this plan. And they should also be the one that holds the most power, not only in this Magical Beast hoards but certainly also in this Green area, implying that they are the Ruler of this place, while the others, no matter what species of Magical Beasts, they are still just merely their followers.

Meaning to say, even if they kill all the Leaders of these Magical Beast hoards like that 7 Star Green Fur Ape, as long as the root cause of all of this to happened exist, especially the Savage Foxes, then it might not necessarily cause the Magical Beast hoards to retreat. In fact, it might even just cause the situation to turn even more worst as killing their Leaders would certainly infuriate all of them.

"I don't believe that the Savage Foxes no longer have fears in their hearts. As long as they're alive, making them feel fear is still possible,"

"So what you simply mean to say is we will do the exact same plan to the Savage Foxes?" Elvis curiously asked.

Hearing Elvis' question, Leo simply smiled mischievously before taking out an item from his Storage Ring.
