116 Chapter 115 (1/2)
”All right… I will draw their attention.” Leon said. ”You will need to retrieve those who are unconscious and fall into the sea.”
”Got it.” Betty nodded.
Leon flew upward, and when all the soldiers saw him, they stopped attacking the island to attack him. That being said, the speed of their projectiles could ever match Leon's speed. While moving up and down to dodge the attacks, Leon approached the nearest chopper and destroyed its blades with an earth arrow quite easy.
”It looks like in order to the chopper move faster, the builders sacrificed the durability.”
The chopper started to fall, and then all the passengers jumped from the vehicle, Leon approached them and shot Earth Bullets in their stomach, some resisted the pain while others lost consciousness. However, both groups wouldn't be able to fight for a while.
Leon repeated that action a few more times, and in no time, half of the choppers had fallen. Then suddenly, Leon saw some familiar skills. Several earth lances flew toward him at a fearsome speed. Leon dodged them by a hair's breadth, but then he felt his skin burning when several energy beams and lightning in the shape of a whip almost hit his back.
”Tch… that hurts! Damn it!”
Leon looked at the chopper those attacks came from, and he became a bit surprised when he saw Tom, Arthur, and the guys he fought alongside in the skeletons' dungeon. They weren't holding back, and by the look of Tom's eyes, he would do the same if he had the chance. However, he knew that his Boomerang Hammer wasn't fast enough.
”Dumbasses… can't you guys use your head a little? The only thing you guys can do is to follow orders?”
That being said, Leon was aware that believing in their bosses was the obvious option instead of believing in a stranger that appeared a few months ago. Deciding to ignore them for the time being, Leon chose another chopper to knockdown.
Imagining that he was acting too fast, Leon checked the beach only to find Betty easily knocking down those who managed to stay conscious. The number of soldiers in the sea was small because she was fast and could even teleport to some extent. Leon lost his hesitation and, in no time, knocked down the remaining chopper with the sole exception of the one which Tom was. He would use that one to return.
Unfortunately, the pilot of that vehicle had other plans. Seeing that those soldiers had no chance, he decided to flee, but Leon didn't let him. He sent a wave of sand to that chopper, and then he imprisoned the pilot. Leon saw Betty piloting, so he knew how to control the pilot and make him land the helicopter on the island.
”You traitor!” Tom shouted.
Leon approached the chopper to control it with more ease, and then Tom jumped toward him with his hammer. Leon dodged the attack and also imprisoned Tom using earth, they moved a little bit from the island, so he couldn't let him fall since the megalodons could appear at any moment. Noticing what Leon just saved Tom's life, Arthur and Tom's subordinates stopped their attacks.
”So, you guys are finally using your head a little…” Leon frowned. ”Let's talk on the beach.”
They had no chance of escaping or winning the battle, so they could only obey Leon's terms. They had no other choice but to obey the man who defeated almost one hundred rank A soldiers.
