Chapter 177

After observing the items and tomes the survivors collected, Leon only selected half of them and put them inside his magic box. The tomes weren't that useful, so he left them to the survivors, they would need to rebuild and protect the city in case something like that happens again.

Around five hundred soldiers died, and more or less two hundred civilians perished… even though it was crazy, Leon wanted to protect all of them. Despite that massive loss, several people thanked him for his hard work. Leon didn't feel like he deserved their gratitude. Besides, he still had to fight to protect the other four cities. However, much to Leon's surprise, several choppers landed nearby, and Leon recognized several figures inside those choppers, Tom, Arthur, Jess, and the others he worked with for a while in New York.

"The cavalry is finally here… but I guess we are too late." Tom frowned when he saw the sea of monsters around.

"I thought Sarah said that she was short-handed…" Leon said.

"Yes, but after seeing the photograph, she selected several soldiers and sent us to help," Tom said.

"Photograph?" Leon frowned.

"Sorry, Leon." Betty lowered her head. " When I saw the horde, I concluded that those were too much, even for you. So, I took a photo and sent it to Sarah."

"Why are you apologizing?" Leon asked. "In the end, you were right. We only won because we were lucky. Anyway… we don't have time to waste. We have a little more than ten hours to reach Salvador… by the way, which direction is that city?"

" If you follow the coast, you will eventually reach it," Pedro said. " What are you going to do with the monster's bodies?"

"I want half of the dragons' hearts… as for the materials, we don't have any means to transport all of them." Leon said. "You can keep them."

Pedro and the others will need those materials to obtain coins and rebuild the city, so it was better to let them all of those. That was also another way for Leon and the alliance to gain favor with the people of the Atlantic Free Nation. Now, he just had to do that four more times, and the chances of them becoming allies would increase tenfold.

There was a chance that other monsters would attack the city, so Leon left one hundred zombies behind and made the rest go to Salvador. He also gave them the order to go as fast as possible while killing every single monster they meet on the way.

When Leon updated his status, he couldn't help but frown. Even though he spent two million coins before the battle, now he had eleven million.

"I guess since they are my creation, I earn the coins the zombies obtain by killing monsters."

Leon didn't think about it before, but using skeletons and zombies were a good way to obtain coins. Even though he only used coins until now to buy mana potions…

"Anyway, let's get going," Leon said.

Tom and the others would offer air support, even though they soon would stop to let the engine absorb mana, they probably would arrive in Salvador before the battle. For a while, Leon accompanied them while he gave those soldiers the best weapons he found after the battle. They were nowhere near as Leon's gear or Betty and Sasha weapons, but those were better than the rank A soldiers had at the current moment.

As much as Leon wanted to sleep to get rid of that terrible headache, he didn't stop and flew toward Salvador. His zombies would probably arrive several hours after the start of the battle, so Leon had to buy as much time as possible with his skeletons.

Leon arrived at Salvador eight hours before the horde of monsters, like before, he left the negotiations and the mission of buying as much as mana potions as possible to Sasha. However, Leon changed his strategy a little bit. Instead of waiting for the skeletons to absorb mana and use them only during the battle, he made the skeletons use Water Balls whenever they had absorbed enough mana to use it. Thanks to that, a few hours before the battle, his skeletons managed to create a small lake on the west side of the city.

"To think they would be able to create something this… I really want to learn the skill to absorb mana from the ambient…"

If Leon had enough mana, he would change the scenery to slow down the monsters as much as possible, but he hadn't. So, he had no choice but to utilize his skeletons' power before the battle. Leon wanted to see how much water he could create by himself, but instead of satisfying his curiosity, he created skeletons non-stop.
