At this moment, Leo was left alone nearby a forest. Looking around the place, he finally realized that this was actually Silver city's Southwest forest, Vibrant Forest.
The Vibrant Forest was a huge forest located in the southwest of Silver City. It is specifically located in the middle between Silver city and Blacksmoke Canyon. This forest is really important because it's like a border that separates the Blacksmoke canyon from Silver city, and which in turn also acts as a defense from the Blacksmoke canyon's bandits.
"How about I'll test the performance of the new form of my Earth Elemental here..." Leo suddenly thought.
What Evangelion had said to him was just a theory or in other words, everything was still mere words. Putting it out into action might not necessarily be the same as what Evangelion had said it would turn out to be, so he might as well test the Earth Elemental to see for himself.
"Big guy, let's go and have a little adventure in the forest!" Leo said towards the Earth Elemental.
Hearing Leo's words, the Earth Elemental seemingly nodded its head to express its agreement.
The Elementals were indeed a marvelous Magical Entity. Although it had just come from his consciousness, hence not comparable to the Nature's Wrath, still it has the capability to think on its own, decide on its own, and even reply on its own. The more he observed the Magical Entity, the more he became astonished.
"Let's go!"
.....
Meanwhile, the same as what Leo had expected, the Black organization had indeed chosen not to go and complete their last operation about the Silver City sewers today, which was in the south sewer.
Around the cave within the south sewer, a group of Black organization's men was lying in ambush, waiting for any signs of the assassin appearing in front of them, again.
Unfortunately though, no matter how long the Black organization's men had waited, no signs of the assassin have appeared yet until this very moment. They had already waited from early morning till mid-afternoon. They haven't even taken any lunch yet because of the fear that the assassin might suddenly appear and kill one of them the moment they let down their guard to eat their meal.
"How long do we need to wait, Boss Richton?" A man wearing black clothes to cover his entire muscular body can't help but ask.
"I don't know! It's up to Elder Caynis to decide when we will leave this disgusting place..." Richton replied silently, afraid that the man in the very front of the group of Black organization's men would hear him and became displeased afterward.
At this moment, Caynis was currently standing within the dark, seemingly blending his body completely within the darkness of the entire cave. Although he was a bit far, specifically 20 meters away from the group of Black organization's men waiting in ambush, he was still able to hear the conversation between Richton and the muscular man, which he doesn't really care about.
"It seems like the assassin already knew about our plan..." Caynis suddenly said to himself. After hours of waiting, it was pretty obvious already that the assassin doesn't plan to appear out any moment from now.
The assassin which they don't know was actually Leo, had indeed chosen not to appear today. After all, he had already expected such a thing to happen. Between the 3 choices that he had thought, he had already thought of the best solution. And the way to counter the Black organization's plan was simply not to go.
Looking around at the already very tense Black organization soldiers, Caynis suddenly flew down as he said, "Okay, it's time for us to leave this place. It seems like the assassin doesn't plan to attack us today!"
Hearing Caynis order, Richton and the Black organization soldiers can't help but breathed a sigh of relief. They were already physically and mentally tired at this moment, so their Elder's order was what they had long been hoping for.
Quickly, the Black organization's men along with Richton and Caynis finally left the south sewer.
They could just have completed the mission this time around, since the assassin wasn't anywhere, hence no one would disrupt their mission. Also, there were Caynis around to help them, too. So, the mission would have been really easy.
However, the President of the Black organization had said to the Elders that it wasn't time yet. So, despite wanting to finish this mission as soon as possible, since the President had ordered them to wait, they could only helplessly agree about it.
...
At this moment, Leo finally finished testing the new form of the Earth Elemental.
Just like what Evangelion had said, the Earth Elemental in the Bedrock Kong form of a Golem has indeed all those capabilities that he had talked about.
Evangelion might have even underestimated the Earth Elemental since it had done more than what he had described it would perform.
While inside the Vibrant Forest, the Earth Elemental was able to freely used all of its ability without any restrictions. The performance that it had shown during the killing at north sewer wasn't even comparable to its whole strength.
Magical Beast around the Vibrant Forest, specifically only those below 1 Star Magical Beast, and even the environment itself, the green zone only, can't even hope to survive any of its attacks.
Every strike and attack that seemingly looked like those of Magical Beast Bedrock Kong was really packed full of strength. Some weaker Magical Beast was even turned into meat paste after receiving such an attack.
The Earth Elementals defense was also really great. Even a pack of Silver Fur Wolves weren't even able to land any attacks on its head or even caused any noticeable damage. Every attack of the Silver Fur Wolves was always successfully blocked by the two huge arms that seemingly act as an unbreakable shield.
In short, the Earth Elemental was almost overpowered.
It was already in the middle of the afternoon when Leo finally decided to leave the Vibrant Forest. He ordered his Earth Elemental in a Bedrock Kong form to turn into a toy soldier form before putting it in his shoulder.
Along the way, Leo can't help but always thought of adjusting some other areas about the Earth Elemental.
Despite the Earth Elemental already almost being overpowered though, he still found some areas worthy of improvements. Unfortunately, he still needed more live testing and also more knowledge about some related stuff in order for his adjustments to be worthwhile. So, he could only helplessly decide to apply the adjustments next time.
As soon as Leo reached the exit of the Vibrant Forest, he suddenly found a group of men wearing black clothes while being led by 2 people on their fronts.
Leo immediately chooses to hide as he went to observe them from a very faraway distance, specifically 50 meters away from the unknown group.
The moment the unknown group completely came out from an inconspicuous passage in the south sewer, they immediately started changing into ordinary clothes right after.
It was only after they finished changing clothes that Leo finally realized that the unknown group was actually from the Black organization. And it seems like he was right on his decision to not get involved with them today.
Basing in their numbers the moment they left the exit of the south sewer, they seemed to not even received any casualties at all. In other words, they weren't fighting against any Magical Beast and completing their last operation in the south sewer, but instead, they had been waiting for him.
"Just like what I had expected..." Leo breathed a sigh of relief.
Just after observing for a few minutes, Leo was quick to find out that this group of Black organization's men were actually led by a 5 Star Mage since the aura of the ugly guy wearing glasses was seemingly the same as those of Evangelion's.
If he had dared to appear today, then he would have surely died.
Not only should he pay attention to the 5 Star Mage within their group, even the men this time around were twice as many compared to before. It seems like they were fully prepared for the assassin's appearance.
Unfortunately, though, the assassin which was Leo, wasn't careless enough to do such a greenhorn mistake. Through his years of experience being an assassin, such a setup wasn't new to him anymore. That's why he was able to understand quickly that the Black organization would have surely set up an ambush for him after experiencing his last assault.
"You tried to set me up, but it turns out that it was me that had unexpectedly discovered your real identities..." Leo said as he formed a mischievous smile on his face.
As soon as the Black organization's men finished changing into ordinary clothes, they started walking towards the Silver city South gate.
Behind the Black organization, though, was Leo, tailing them secretly while at the same time planning to discover their real identities.
At a distance of 50 meters, it was pretty obvious that Leo wouldn't be able to see their faces.. So, the only way for him to find out about all of their real identities was to follow them and then blend within their group the moment they reached the South Gate of the Silver City, which was obviously the plan of this group in order to enter back to Silver City.
