Hence, after being made aware of Leylin’s abilities, the team leader was unable to treat Leylin condescendingly and looked like he was meeting his boss every time he came.
“Hm! Three are official Magi, of which one is female, and thirteen are acolytes…”
This female Magus was naturally Jocelyn, whose complexion was deadly pale as if she had been dealt a serious blow and did not dare to provoke Leylin.
The team leader quickly recorded this information down and signed his name on a form.
Afterwards, he couldn’t help but greeting him using Magus etiquette.
“Lord Leylin! Your accomplishments in the field have far surpassed mine. Once we return to the main headquarters, your rewards and contribution points will be given to you all at once!”
As it was basically a war in the secret plane, the prisoners that Leylin had taken captive could be turned into merit points.
Not only could merit points be used to exchange for special items that could only be found within the Eternal River Plains’ secret plane from the large light Magi organisations, it could also be used to obtain unique items from other academies.
This included advanced knowledge, improved spell formations, precious potions, and the like.
“Alright!” Leylin nodded.
Based on his estimations, if the merit points he had gained could be converted into magic crystals, he would have least several million. This meant that soon, he could leave this place behind.
As a better method for harvesting had been provided, about half of the Black Mandara Flowers had been picked, and only a relatively small amount was left.
At the rate they were working at, the Black Mandara Flowers would be completely harvested in less than four days. And at that time, Leylin and the others would be able to leave this damned place.
Every time he saw the defense squad coming in fully armed, Leylin was filled with annoyance!
……
As the goods that were to be transported were of extreme importance, the means of transportation provided to the transportation team was the Toucan.
This type of bird had a large body, and when matured, could grow up to ten metres tall.
Its beak drooped downwards, forming a large space that was basically a room that could store many items and even humans!
The team leader split up his team evenly and directed them into the beaks of three Toucans, leaving the best spot for himself. On top of the box full of Black Mandara Flower petals, he began to rest.
At the thought that he was sleeping on top of several million magic crystals, his heart began to burn involuntarily.
If not for the almost abnormal strictness that the light Magi alliance had at the entrance checks, and the fact that it was impossible to smuggle things out, even he might have harboured some terrible thoughts.
It was warm in the Toucan’s beak, and even when it was flying high in the sky, not a current of air came through. It was very comfortable, and as the team leader shut his eyes, he began to fall asleep.
*Crash!*
All of a sudden, the surroundings rocked and several boxes were overturned and fell to the ground.
“What’s happening?”
He exclaimed in shock.
Immediately after, a secret imprint by his ear brightened. “Leader, it’s an enemy attack! It’s the dark Magi!”
The voice of his subordinate travelled from the imprint, and he sounded fearful.
“Those wretched things!” He cursed, and shouted through his secret imprint, “Prepare for landing; all members, get ready for war!”
*Boom!*
