Meanwhile, far on the ground below, Leo observed the battle closely, looking for where trouble would unexpectedly strike him.
There is no need for him to really pay close attention to Charlotte and the others fighting against the Beast Lord Storm Sparrow. He is very confident that they would be able to successfully capture it.
What he's mainly worried about right now is the ongoing battle against the Storm Sparrows.
Just now, he had already noticed plenty of 7 Star Storm Sparrows arriving and joining in the battlefield with tens of 6 Star Storm Sparrows following behind them.
As of now, they only have a few people with a cultivation level above the 7 Star level. Including Iasiah and Nightingale, there are only the two Captains of the Elves Secret organization, which brings to a total of four people.
Not only that, they only have Elvis and the three Vice-Captains of the Elves Secret organization who are in the 6 Star level, with only dozens of people in the 5 Star level from both the Mischievous Lion Guild and Elves Secret organization. And as for the ten Griffins, they are now starting to be at the disadvantage as the sky becomes packed with Storm Sparrows.
With such a few number, it's next to impossible for them to handle the increasing numbers of Storm Sparrows joining in the battlefield.
Although they have the numerical advantage against the Storm Sparrow tribe right now, it still doesn't really provide them that much of an advantage since they are aerial Magical Beasts.
The Storm Sparrows could just simply keep on using their advantage to fly up in the air and use both their Wind Element Power and Lightning Element Power to attack their target, while at the same time dodging from the continuous barrage of Magic spells.
If they really want to attack the Storm Sparrows, then they could only do that by either using range weapons or Magic spells. Only a few people are in possession of range weapons right now, so the majority of others could only wait for a Storm Sparrow to land on the ground and fight it. But once the Storm Sparrow flies back up again, then they can only helplessly wait for a chance for it to land on the ground another time or be quick enough to cast a Magic spell to attack it before it can attack them.
Not to mention, it wouldn't be long for even more Storm Sparrows to arrive at the battlefield.
It's pretty obvious already that their advantage is now slowly losing effect the longer the fight goes on.
Their only chance of turning this battle to their favor is by defeating the Beast Lord Storm Sparrow, which would then allow Charlotte and the others to join the battlefield, and also lower the morale of the Storm Sparrows.
But that would obviously take a bit more time to complete. As of now, they need to buy Charlotte and the others enough time. And in order to achieve that, they need to prevent any trouble from happening, which is exactly what Leo is doing right now.
Even with the presence of Ash, Nightingale, and the Captains and Vice-Captains of the Elves Secret organization, it's still impossible to cover everything on the battlefield, especially considering the fact that there are over 20,000 men.
”Everyone, don't stick with each other so closely, you are preventing the others from attacking!”
”You can also divide into different groups so as to lure the Storm Sparrows into thinking that you are an easy target!”
”Rear-line teams, don't attack those Storm Sparrows farther at the back, focus on those closest to us!”
All of a sudden, at the peripheral vision of Leo, he noticed a new group of people joining the rear-line teams from the forest. They were secretly slipping in through the assistance of Captain Timon's men positioned at the rear-line teams.
”Captain Timon's little brother Timor is really not a trustworthy person,” Leo said with a shake of his head. Just a while ago, Timor had said that he would be going along with all of his men from the Night Ear Guild into a different location. But here he sees him now, trying to take advantage of the Mischievous Lion Guild and Elves Secret organization against the Storm Sparrow tribe.
Leo quickly turned to look at Elvis at his side as he said, ”Call out for Iasiah and both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team, now!”
”Yes, Guild Leader Loki!” Elvis replied as he immediately left to find Iasiah who should be close by Cassandra and the others right now.
”By the way, be sure to bring Cassandra and the others as well,” Leo quickly added. He's worried that it wouldn't be safe leaving Cassandra and the others without Iasiah and both the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team around to protect them.
After seeing Elvis leave, Leo then turned to look at Timor again who was still trying to sneak the members of his Night Ear Guild slowly to the rear-line teams of Captain Timon.
”Timor-Timor-Timor, you are really leaving me with no other choice but to give you a hard time,” Leo thought inwardly. He quickly added, ”And as for your older brother Timon, just he waits, he'll definitely be paying five times the consequences of thinking that he could just easily crossover my line,”
It doesn't need a smart person to easily guess that Captain Timon is helping his little brother Timor again right now.
