"Hello, Wilson's Grandson."
After saying hi to his new friend, which was the tree that Leon would use to mark the days of his third year in that island, he decided to think more seriously about the events of the previous day. First of all, the galodons were just stupidly big and strong. They were fast enough to jump over one hundred and fifty ters of height. Not only that, but they could also regenerate their wounds at an equally stupid rate.
Second, his actions would lure the galodons, and the galodons jumping out from the sea would attract dragons. It looked like they liked to eat fish, just like Leon, but the difference in their appetite was noticeable.
"I can't escape unless I obtain the power to kill all of them... It sounds stupid, but I can't escape unless I obtain the power to slay dragons."
Just saying sothing stupid as that was enough to make Leon have headaches, he was massaging his forehead while thinking of a more reasonable way to escape from the island. Suddenly, Leon started to think that his ideas of creating a steel ship or fly through the stratosphere aren't stupid at all. Leon could produce oxygen but making himself breathe pure oxygen was dangerous. Besides, if the Titanic sunk, who was he to think that his ship wouldn't sink if he gets attacked by four galodons again?
Regardless, Leon managed to wound those monsters with his spears, and if they could be damaged, they could die. Although he attacked using all his power their eyes, it wasn't enough to reach their brains, but if Leon becos stronger, he could deal with them. Instead of using eight spears to blind four galodons, he would be capable of killing four galodons with four spears.
"To do that, I have to increase Spearmanship level and Earth Manipulation. My aim is already good enough to hit them precisely despite their speed... but I guess I can improve my attack power."
Spearmanship and Earth Manipulation would increase Leon's raw power, but he needed sothing more. Leon thought of using his spears one behind the others to force their way toward the monsters' brains. But by doing so, he would have a hard ti pulling back his spears. His Blacksmith level was increasing, but unfortunately, his weapons couldn't beco more powerful or sharper. Not just using steel, at least.
"Maybe I must change my strategy of attack since blinding them is not enough... I didn't want to rely too much on offensive spells since the projectiles can't be reused, but... if I manage to learn one which can defeat a galodon in a single shot, it certainly can be more powerful than my spears, and I can get rid of the extra weight that I would have to carry."
The process of learning and mastering a spell wasn't easy. So, Leon had first to visualize the type of spell that he had to learn to kill the monsters before trying anything. It had to be more powerful, so more mana would have to be used. However, that was fine, as long as he doesn't have to spend a huge amount of mana like when used lightning, any spell would do.
"I doubt that I can make anything sharper than my steel spears, and if the projectile is too light or small, it may lose power before it reaches the brain of the monsters… I guess I can't rely on earth alone anymore. That being said, galodons are monsters from the sea, so they should have Water Resistance… the best way of attacking a water monster would be using electricity, but… it is hard to control."
Leon was sure that if he could add thunder to his steel spears, he would obtain the power to pierce through all the galodons' body. He tried to do that, but the energy dispersed quite fast. The only way to use that combination was if he managed to create a steel spear as fast as he could create Earth Bulled and add the power of thunder… but that was impossible with his current abilities. To create a spear sharp enough to pierce a monster like that, he needed to concentrate for a long ti.
"Oh, boy… now what?"
With enough training, Leon was certain that he could learn an earth spear with the sa size as his steel spears, but he wouldn't be able to combine electricity in that spear. Water wouldn't mix well with earth, so the only option left was the fire.
"A spear made of earth and fire… a magma spear? I guess it could work; the magma will cauterize the wound and prevent regeneration and increase the piercing power of the spear."
Combining two elents to make sothing big, sturdy, and sharp at the sa ti in a short amount of ti wouldn't be easy, but it wasn't like Leon had any better ideas. Besides, the hard part was to learn; once he does that, he would be able to use it constantly.
"Jesus Christ… why do I have to change my plans so much? Why I spent years in college? I'm so dumb that I can't even outsmart Jurassic animals…"
Without the extra weight of the steel spears, Leon would be able to fly a little faster. However, it still wasn't enough to outspeed the galodons, so he decided to keep practicing his control over elent earth while he tries to learn the attack he was hoping to kill galodons and dragons in a single strike. If he doesn't succeed in obtaining that power… he might as well give up.
"If I fail once again... I will have to make a choice, accept the fact that I will spend the rest of my life here, or I will die young in the stomach of a monster. Here goes nothing..."
