"We won\'t be able to proceed with the plan as long as we don\'t have enough supply to make the weapons and other necessary items we needed." Mayor Jong heaves a long sigh.

Leo and everyone nodded their heads as they were smart enough to understand what Mayor Jong had said.

Everything involving Magical Beast, especially Magical Beast hoard or nest, to be more precise a Magical Beast tribe, one will always need a supply for elimination. Without that, no one, as in no one, would be able to successfully eliminate them. Unless of course if one is already powerful enough that they can single-handedly eliminate an entire Magical Beast tribe.

"You said you have a plan, what kind of plan exactly is it?" Leo can\'t help asking as he was curious what kind of plan Mayor Jong has that can be used to eliminate a nest of Sandstone Mother Spider.

Sandstone Mother Spider was known to be an 8 Star to 9 Star Magical Beast. A nest full of them simply means that it\'s really difficult to eliminate all of them.

However, Mayor Jong actually said he has a plan? Not to mention, he has even said that "As a Sand race, we know clearly well of the best way to eliminate Sandstone Mother Spider."

Just what kind of plan did Mayor Jong think, and how does it relate to them being of the Sand race?

He really wants to know about it!

"Oh, it\'s very easy to kill Sandstone Mother Spider," Mayor Jong showed a proud look on his face. He continued, "Although those Sandstone Mother Spiders are known to be 8 Star to 9 Star Magical Beast, their species, specifically Sandstone Spiders, is actually also known to be the bottom feeders in the desert. It\'s because a Magical Beast a level or two below them could easily kill them. That\'s why they always stayed underground."

"So you meant to say is, you want to lure another Magical Beast to their nest in order for you to eliminate them?" Leo wanted to confirm.

"Yes, that\'s indeed the plan." Mayor Jong nodded his head with a smile on his face.

"But for that Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest to successfully eliminate 18 of your people in the 3 Star to 4 Star level despite being said to be the bottom feeders in the desert, we can guess that it means that there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of them in that nest, right? Or even millions," Leo paused as he showed Mayor Jong a knowing look on his face. He continued, "So, you would definitely need to lure a large and powerful Magical Beast tribe to their nest. But where exactly would you find any of that? And not to mention, a Magical Beast tribe that will have the courage to go against a Sandstone Lord Spider?"

Mayor Jong already expected that Leo would ask him such a question, so he quickly replied, "There is a Magical Beast tribe of a Beast Lord Sandpit Worm 500 kilometers away from the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest."

"So you want to dig a tunnel straight towards the direction of the underground nest of the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest?" Leo can\'t help asking in doubt.

"Of course not!" Mayor Jong shook his head.

"Good..." Leo really almost thought that Mayor Jong was stupid.

If Mayor Jong was really thinking of digging from the surface straight under the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest, then it would take many months for them to complete such a thing, and there\'s even a big chance for them not to be able to complete it considering how troublesome doing such a plan is.

He can already expect that for the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm to really fight against the Magical Beast tribe of the Sandstone Lord Spider, specifically the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest, it would first require them to create a tunnel big enough for a Magical Beast tribe to fit in without them feeling any disadvantages during the expected fight. Without that, then even if they can successfully lure the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm to the surface location of the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest, it would still be useless as they would obviously not fight with each other considering that the former is up on the surface while the latter\'s territory is deep underground.

"What we will do instead is to force those Sandstone Spiders to dig a tunnel to the surface themselves." Mayor Jong smile and continued, "As to how we would do that? Very simple, we just need to blow up the ceiling of the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest and let the sand fall down to their nest. With their nest covered in sand, they would be forced to dig a tunnel to the surface before they can begin repairing their nest since they would need a place to put the sands away."

"That\'s a very great idea, but that might cause you to lose some of your men. I think you wouldn\'t like that, right?" Leo raised his right eyebrow in doubt. He had already understood that Mayor Jong wasn\'t the type of person that would just sacrifice his people. So, how would he handle such a situation? Or would Mayor Jong, unfortunately, go against his morals and principles just to be successful?

"We will simply make the ceiling as thin as we can and then use some explosives to blow up a huge enough hole that can cover the entire Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest with sand. We have already prepared a few hundreds of small Magic bombs, but our only problem left is the supply required to make the necessary tools to proceed with thinning the ceiling." Mayor Jong replied.

Just like what Leo expected, Mayor Jong wouldn\'t easily change just because doing so would allow him to easily succeed in his plan. If it was other people, they would definitely choose to sacrifice their people, saying that, "For the sake of our own survival, it\'s necessary for some sacrifices to be made!" Just like how the Human race had survived until this very moment.

Of course, nothing is wrong with doing that. But for someone with Mayor Jong\'s character, choosing to do that would be the same as doing something that he doesn\'t want to do, which in most cases, will become the main reason why a person changed for the worst.

To be honest, that was the exact reason why he isn\'t the same as when he was still a kid. Because he had done a lot of things that he had deemed as bad and would never do in the past.

"But wouldn\'t that also mean that you\'re covering the water supply as well, right?" Cassandra suddenly butted in.

"Indeed, with the sand covering the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest, it also meant that you have covered the water supply with sand," Elizabeth quickly added.

"You\'re wrong," Angel shook her head before explaining, "My Master Silva asked me a question in the past, \'What do you call an item that even if you block their way they would still be able to find another way out?\' And the answer for that is water. Because no matter how you block water, they would still look for another way. It might no longer be in the same direction, but they will certainly find another way."

"So you meant to say is; once the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest gets eliminated by the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm, the only problem left is to look for where would the water flow next, or if not, just help create another path for the water to flow in?" Veronica asked, which Angel nodded her head in response.

"That\'s a really bright idea!" Ash can\'t help commenting.

"I know right!" Charlotte agreed.

"So that\'s how it is..." Ethan and the others finally realized how easy it was to solve such a problem.

Leo and Mayor Jong just simply smiled while looking at Cassandra and the others as they both already knew about such knowledge.

Leo turned to look at Mayor Jong as he didn\'t hesitate to suggest, "Then how about I\'ll help you with that?"

"That would be great!" Mayor Jong smiled in delight, but it only lasted for half a second before his face became depressed once again as he said, "But unfortunately, we have nothing to offer that is of value to a Prince-like you."

Hearing Mayor Jong\'s words, Leo shook his head as he said, "That\'s where you are mistaken, Mayor Jong. You see, the war in the Lionheart Kingdom is already over and they are now in the process of rebuilding the territory. So, what do you think they needed the most right now?"

Mayor Jong thought for a bit before replying to Leo, "Manpower!"

"Yes! They needed lots of lots of manpower to help them rebuild the territory of the Lionheart Kingdom," Leo smiled mischievously, "So how about let\'s do it this way. I will help you in your plan to eliminate the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest and reclaim your water source. In return, you will send a few of your capable men to help the Lionheart Kingdom rebuild their territory. Also, in such a way, once the Sandy Town becomes a part of the Lionheart Kingdom, not a lot of humans would discriminate against your Sand race anymore as they know that you have helped them rebuild their home."

"That is indeed a very good suggestion, Prince Leo!" Mayor Jong didn\'t hesitate to accept Leo\'s suggestion, "Once we succeeded in this mission, I will own you a favor. No matter what problem you will encounter in the future, as long as you needed my help, you can come to me and I will not hesitate to help you!"

Leo smiled and tap Mayor Jong\'s shoulder as he thought in his mind, "Oh, I would definitely be needing you in the future, especially with how capable you are, Mayor Jong..."

It was really out of Mayor Jong\'s imagination at this moment that the favor he owns Leo would be about helping him fight against the Gods. If he knows about it, then he would have certainly done everything he could to reject Leo\'s help.

Unfortunately, there is no turning back for Mayor Jong now as he had already spoken his words.
