BXBX NOVEL 113 Chapter 112
Leon didn\'t know the details, but it looked like some scientists managed to make the engine of the chopper be able to absorb mana from the surroundings. However, it had to absorb mana for twelve hours to fill the tank. Although the chopper\'s tank was already full, they decided to leave it behind since they would use that to go home. It would be the best option to use the chopper in case some group find and tries to chase them. Even though Leon could make everyone fly at fifty meters per second, he couldn\'t make them invisible.
"How many guards protect the relic?" Leon asked while they were flying to Rome.
"Only ten, in fact, they protect the entrance of the treasure room," Betty explained. " The treasure room is entirely made of steel... you said you could make holes in wall and floor using earth magic, but can you do the same to steel?"
"Don\'t worry about it; I will open the path to the treasure room," Leon said.
In fact, Leon never tried to open holes in the wall and on the floor, but if he could use steel spears to pierce the skin of a three-headed dragon, he was pretty sure he could silently open holes in walls and floors using earth magic alone. He just needed to be quiet, and he knew the method to that quietly.
"Still, to think that I would have to damage a building with so much history..." Leon said, feeling somewhat guilty.
"It is to save lives, so it cannot be helped," Betty said.
Since the whole building wasn\'t made of a single uniform material, Leon couldn\'t repair it. A few minutes later, they finally reached the boundaries of Rome; they arrived just in time to see the moment of Leon\'s armies arrived, and the battle started. Little by little, his skeletons began to fell. Thanks to their defensive stance, Leon confirmed that they would last for quite a while.
While they were crossing the skies of Rome, Leon and the others also saw the moment when a few survivors were heading North stopped and then headed South. The second undead army also arrived on time. Leon analyzed the map of Italy and measured the distance, but he didn\'t imagine that his calculations could have been so precise.
Little by little, the lights of Rome were relighted, the only point which that didn\'t happen was the Vatican city, which its lights were already on, to begin with.
"According to the map of the building, the treasure room is underground," Betty explained. "Right in the middle of the building."
Leon sighed when he heard that he would have to damage the building much more than he thought... Even though the believers worked hard to rebuild the whole Vatican city after the dragons destroyed it.
Unfortunately, there was no time to lose hesitating. Leon saw a few guards around the plaza, but none of them noticed their approach, not even when they landed on the top of the chapel.
"I\'m sorry... please forgive me," Leon said before he started to make a hole in the chapel.
"I never thought you were a religious guy..." Betty said.
"I\'m not... but I respect the faith of every person," Leon said.
Leon created an earth spear and made it spin before anyone could notice, there was a hole big enough to a person to cross leading to the interior of the chapel. Putting aside the fact Leon dirtied several rooms, he succeeded in his mission because he didn\'t make any noise.
Despite the fact that they crossed several rooms, they didn\'t find a single living soul. That was due to the fact that Betty chose a path that made them pass through rooms which were used only during the day. Eventually, they were in a room which was just above the treasure room, after digging a little Leon found the steel of the treasure room.
"Ah… I forgot about that." Leon massaged his forehead.
"It will be noisy, right?" Betty asked.
"No, it will be smelly," Leon said. "Cover your noses."
Leon created a small but highly concentrated, powerful flame and melted the steel. Although the walls were thirty centimeters thick, Leon managed to open a hole big enough for a person to enter in just thirty seconds. Before the round piece of steel could fall and cause a huge noise, Leon grabbed.
"Ugh… it is heavy."
Leon gave the sign for Betty and the others to wait while he entered the treasure room since it was dark, he created a fireball to illuminate the place. As expected of a treasure room, Leon saw several items that looked it had been dropped by bosses. However, among them, in the middle of the room, a silver bow stood out. It was on a table; the design was so beautiful that Leon thought that just touching would be a sin. Its color was silver, and it looked like it had been made by combining the wings of an angel. Despite that, Leon picked.
Angelic Bow
It grants the user the skills: Arrow of Light Lv 50. Intelligence + 50, Dexterity +50.
Cost: 10 mana
Cooldown time: 2 seconds.
"This is one heck of a bow… maybe it is even better than my scythe."
After grabbing the bow, Leon left the twenty golems\' cores that he obtained in Japan on the table. When he returned to New York after completing the quest, he picked them; he also left a note.
I\'m borrowing the bow for a while, I\'m truly sorry, but I didn\'t have any other choice. These cores will be the payment for borrowing the bow. I will bring it back as soon as possible. Let me say this again… I\'m truly sorry.
After that, Leon, Betty, and the others left before anyone could notice what they had done. Although it wasn\'t much, Leon repaired the hole he made in the treasure room.
