Chapter 129: Turning Around the Situation

Meanwhile,

Michael also had entered Cuba's sky as the pilot and co-pilot could see the magical beasts.

"General Michael, we have spotted the horde of magical beasts."

Michael quickly rose from his seats and went to talk with the pilot. "Are they fighting on the hill?"

"Yes. Although they are swarmed by the magical beasts, they are not at a disadvantage. I can see a few special ones, but are we going according to the plan?"

"Go according to the plan. We have a number here and don't have enough time," Michael answered after pondering for a while. Michael signaled his assistant to take care of the preparation.

They were flying inside a military cargo plane. With Graham Family's and Ethan's Reputation, they managed to acquire five military cargo planes capable of carrying a hundred people at once, while seventy-five of them were paratrooper soldiers. In other words, almost four hundred soldiers could immediately join the war and start the evacuation.

"But Sir, we have spotted a huge number of flying beasts around the hill. We are afraid we can't get too close to them."

Seeing the battlefield's condition, Michael pondered for a moment before saying, "Get us as close as possible and drop there. After that, land the plane on the military base and be prepared to take off again."

Following his words, certain communication was captured by the radio.

"This is Hercules, asking for communication with the general. Please respond."

The communication alarmed the pilot as he searched around before finding a military cargo plane behind the magical beasts. It was a bit far, but he was somehow still able to find them. "Sir… We get in contact with another group. Although it's barely, we could see them coming from our ten. We have yet to confirm their number. They are asking to talk to you Sir."

Michael closed the phone and quickly entered the pilot cabin. He put on the headset that the pilot gave him and asked, "Michael's speaking."

"Brother, we have confirmed the protector. Father and Sir Ethan are fighting against her. Father's order is to evacuate the kid. However, we can't go to your position."

"Bryan, huh… Our priority is the kid. With your direction, you should be on top of the middle army. Drop there since Michelle and Tasha are there according to Sanders. After that, ask the middle army to the right while your group is going to the left army." Michael didn't give a complicated command.

"Understood. I will also ask some of my men to escort Michelle and Tasha to the military base and get the general idea from the commander in charge."

"Good Luck." Michael took off his headset and headed back to the soldiers. They had a massive preparation and were ready to jump off the plane.

Michael quickly grabbed his equipment as a few seconds later, the door was opened.

"The sky is clear to drop off."

As soon as the signal to drop was on, the soldiers began jumping off the plane. Following them, the other four planes also dropped the soldiers.

…

On the battlefield,

Not only Kai, but all soldiers also heard the roaring of airplanes' engines. They took a glimpse of the military cargo planes in the sky.

Sarah swiftly used this chance to encourage the soldiers. "Listen up, Soldiers. Our reinforcement has come. Use your all in these few minutes as we will win this battle!"

"Yes, Ma'am!"

The soldiers got pumped up, knowing that this battle would end up in their victory as soon as the reinforcement arrived.

On the other hand, Kai could only frown as his ears picked up a distress sound.

"One battle on the sea, big reinforcement on the middle army, and one reinforcement on our left." Kai retreated from the battle as he formulated the plan.

He knew that the reinforcement in his left would surely come to take him away. However, the distress sound of Michelle's Grandfather made him hesitate.

Knowing that the situation became pretty bad on Nathan's side, he had no choice than to man up and turn the situation around.

As he thought about the plan, the reinforcement finally came.

"Attack!"

"Boom Boom Boom!" A few elites quickly used big magic to trounce the magical beasts as they entered the left battlefield.

They swept the magical beasts on the hill before climbing the hill to help the soldiers that had a hard time dealing with the sea creatures.

With the battle turned into a stalemate, the general, Michael, appeared before Kai.

"Kai, where is your group? We need to have you and your group retreat from this battle." As soon as Michael came, he roared.

"A mermaid? A protector?" Kai glanced at Michael with a doubt.

"As you might have heard, you can ask about it to Father. For now, we will retreat with all students in the area." Michael shook his head with a severe expression.

To his surprise, Kai shook his head and rejected it. "No!"

"I am not saying this as your father-in-law or Michael Graham, but I am ordering you as a general in the army!" Michael rebuked him with an intense aura.

"I am not rejecting it because I am stubborn."

"Then what? I will give you thirty seconds to explain yourself before I bring you back even with force."

"Sir Nathan and this Sir... Ethan… are having a problem at the moment. They are pressured by this so-called protector. If it goes on like this, I am afraid they would lose."

"Even though they are already old, both of them were former highest rank generals in the army. So, they should be able to hold out for a moment."

Kai pondered for a moment before saying, "But if we destroy the magical beasts here, we can make the so-called protector retreat. I could somehow hear around one thousand soldiers as our immediate reinforcement. If it's like this, we can turn the situation around and wipe the magical beasts out within an hour.

"I am sure without the magical beasts, this seeming protector would surely retreat back to the sea. This is the best scenario. If the situation turns slightly to what I predicted, I will immediately go to the base and retreat." Kai explained his plan with determination.

Graham family had helped him when he almost died in Alaska. Judging how the battle situation, Nathan and Ethan would surely fight the mermaid until the battle ended since they sent Michael to rescue him.

Kai had no problem picturing how Nathan and Ethan could fight her for one or two hours, but the problem was after that. If the reinforcement needed to escort them, the battle in this place would become a bit longer.

At that time, he wasn't sure whether Nathan and Ethan could still hold her back. After pondering for a few minutes, this was the best conclusion he could think of.

Michael fell into silence. He exactly knew what kind of being the protector was as he had fought one of them when he was in the military. It was a hell fight for him, and despite battling for a few hours, the protector didn't die. Instead, it ran away after killing a few most elite people in his team.

Like Kai, they were blessed by a high amount of magic power and used their magic consecutively. After listening to Kai's words, he fell into deep thought.

"The battle here is only focusing on the flying beasts and sea creatures. As long as the elites could hold off the sea creatures for around thirty minutes, the gunners surely can kill the flying beasts. After all, we have around a thousand gunners at the moment.

"Then, we can help the fighters and elites to rout the magical beasts in this place. Judging from the reinforcement on the other army, they can send half of them to deal with the flying beasts of our reserve army, and the rest would pincer this position from behind. As long as I have Tasha rampaged on the middle army, I can be sure they would only need a few minutes to rout the rest before coming to our direction. With-"

Michael raised his hand, stopping him from talking. "Alright. I understand your plan. I heard that you take the command of this entire battlefield, is that true?"

"Yes."

"Good. Tell all armies to do exactly your plan. I will inform the second reinforcement." Michael nodded before taking out the radio. "Bryan, lead our reinforcement to rout the magical beasts there before going to my position. We have a change of plan to get the best result we hope for. I will explain it later, so don't ask anything for now."

Without waiting for an answer, Michael switched the line of his radio. "Delta-1 and Delta-2, where is your position? Over."

"Delta-1 here. We will reach Cuba's airspace in two minutes."

"Head to the hill and torch our enemy from the back. Over."

"Delta-1 Roger."

"Delta-2 Roger."

Kai was happy about this even though he didn't show it on his face. He quickly took out his radio and said, "Commander Jack. I need you to inform my sister that she doesn't need to hold back and send all the magical beasts flying."

Jack also saw the reinforcement on the air, so he complied. "You got it."

"Soldiers of the left army, it's time for us to turn this situation around. Gunners, let the reinforcement take over your job and change your target to the flying beasts. Make sure you don't leave a single flying beast alive. Fighters coordinate with the reinforcement to hold for about thirty minutes as we will attack the sea creatures with our full force after that." Kai suddenly shouted to command the army.
