After observing the Treasure Beetles for a considerable amount of time, they finally found out a lot of their weaknesses.

Unlike other winged Magical Beasts, in particular the insect species of Magical Beasts, Treasure Beetles soar with their legs outstretched, a posture that helps them maneuver and turn. They keep their thick, bulky legs unfurled as they glide through the air.

The way the Treasure Beetles fly is by simply swinging their legs in the opposite direction of the direction of where they would turn. Simply put, if they go right, they would use their left legs to turn, and when they go left, they use their right legs to turn.

This movement posture, in addition to wing movements, might help the Treasure Beetles turn in flight. But this also gives them an opportunity to effectively defeat them.

By determining where the Treasure Beetle is going towards, preparing traps or ambushes ahead to catch them off guard is going to be very easy.

Aside from that, every kind of action or movements done by the Treasure Beetles would always be directed towards the direction of where their heads are pointed to. So, locating where they would attack or dodge would be very easy as well, since they would always look in that direction first before executing what they wanted to do.

Lastly, although the entire body of the Treasure Beetles is very tough and hard to damage, there are actually a lot of places where it\'s considered as very soft and unguarded, specifically the places where the precious materials are located at. But first, they would have to cut off those precious materials and remove them from their body. After the precious materials are removed, it would then show a flesh-only part of their body where the next precious materials would obviously grow out from. That flesh-only part is very vulnerable as it doesn\'t have any armor to protect it, hence all the attacks would easily cut through, even an attack from ordinary metal weapons.

With the weaknesses they discovered, they quickly began thinking of many ways to catch the Treasure Beetles.

But before doing that, they first need to wait for Nightingale to return and report to them his findings.

It didn\'t take that long for Nightingale to finally return though.

Basing on Nightingale\'s appearance right now, it seems like his task didn\'t cause him that much of a trouble. Well, considering that their location right now is a forest, thus the shadows of the trees should have provided him with a lot of advantages every time he uses Dark Element Magic spells, making it easy for him to lure and escape from those Treasure Beetles.

"Just like what we have expected, the Treasure Beetles and Storm Sparrows have both decided to live peacefully with one another," Nightingale quickly reported. After luring the Treasure Beetles to a group of Storm Sparrows a while ago, he soon found out that none of them actually minded the other. That group of Storm Sparrows simply glimpsed in the direction of the Treasure Beetles before continuing with what they were doing, while the Treasure Beetles didn\'t even show any sort of reaction as they just simply continued to chase after him.

"Hmmm...," Elvis started massaging his chin while thinking of a plan on his mind. After a few minutes, he finally thought of a plan, "With the intelligence of the Treasure Beetles and Storm Sparrows, baiting them using the death of their own kin would be very difficult to execute. But aside from such kind of plan, I don\'t really know of any way to disturb the peace of the two Magical Beast tribes at all,"

The attacks of either the Treasure Beetles or Storm Sparrows are entirely different from the attacks from using weapons. So, making it seem like an attack from one of them would be very challenging. Still, it\'s possible to execute it.

"The only way I could think of to successfully bait them is by using similar attacks from both the Treasure Beetles and Storm Sparrows," Elvis began explaining his plan. He continued, "So my idea is, if we want to kill a Storm Sparrow, then we would have to use Earth Element attacks or Metal Elements attack. While on the other hand, if we want to kill a Treasure Beetle, we would need to use Wind Element attack or Lightning Element attack,"

"But since all of us have a different Element affinity, I would like to divide the group into two. The first group would have people with the affinity of either the Earth Element or Metal Element, while the second group would have people with the affinity of either the Wind Element or Lightning Element," Elvis said while looking at everyone.

"I\'ll go to the first group," Charlotte said as her face showed a bit of disappointment. With her being a part of the first group, she would be assigned on killing the Storm Sparrows. This means that she will only have a small chance of successfully stealing a Treasure Beetle\'s eggs in their time of staying here, or worst, she has no chance at all. Maybe it\'s much better that she\'d just try on stealing a Storm Sparrow\'s eggs instead and sell them as mounts to the members of the Mischievous Lion Guild?

"I\'ll go to the second group," Chief Lago said as his eyes lit up in excitement. It is already very obvious why he was excited. With him being assigned to the second group, he could kill the Treasure Beetles while at the same time also look for some Treasure Beetle\'s eggs.

"I have the affinity of Wind Element, so I\'ll go to the second group," Iasiah said while thinking the same as Chief Lago.

"Mine is the Earth Element, so I guess I\'ll go to the first group," Nightingale said, still oblivious of the chance that he had just missed.

After Charlotte, Chief Lago, Iasiah, and Nightingale finished choosing a group, Elvis then turned to look at Mister Loki, waiting for him to decide on what group he would choose. He knows that Mister Loki has the affinity to use five different Elements, including both Earth Element and Wind Element. This means that he could choose any group that he wants to join. Likewise, he also knows both Elements, but considering that Mister Loki is the person with the actual highest level of authority in this group, he would of course let him choose first.

"I\'ll go to the second group," Leo said while wearing a mischievous smile on his face. As if he doesn\'t know of the advantages and benefits of the second group.

Although he was the one that created the special mission, this doesn\'t necessarily mean that he will just miss the chance of finding a Treasure Beetle\'s eggs. Despite of the fact that he\'s the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild, he can\'t just get everything that belongs in the Guild for himself. It would be very unfair to all of the members. In truth, the same rules to all the members of the Mischievous Lion Guild actually also apply to him, although he just has the highest privileged compared to them.

However, it would be an entirely different story if he can get something that he had worked hard to get. As the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild, getting such a thing means that he has all the rights to use and benefit from it. Simply put, he has the say whether he would give it to the Guild or just use it for himself.

However, that wasn\'t really the main reason why he had to choose the second group.

Just like the reason why they had to choose the Treasure Beetle Mountain before, he chooses the second group because fighting against the Storm Sparrows is very disadvantageous for him, especially considering his 1 Star level cultivation.

Charlotte and the others have a high cultivation level, which means that they can run fast and have a high chance to escape from the pursuit and attack of the Storm Sparrows.

On the other hand, with his 1 Star level cultivation, escaping from the Storm Sparrows would be almost impossible for him. In fact, fighting against them with his strength right now is almost the same as suicide. That\'s just stupidity. So, that\'s why he definitely wouldn\'t choose to do that.

"Okay, then I\'ll go with the first group," Elvis said. He wasn\'t really disappointed that he\'d miss the chance of getting a Treasure Beetle\'s eggs, because he knows that once the Mischievous Lion Guild successfully tamed a Treasure Beetle, it would for sure lay Treasure Beetle\'s eggs someday. At that time, he\'d just simply buy some Treasure Beetle\'s eggs from the Mischievous Lion Guild to have his own Treasure Beetle.

Elvis continued, "The mission is to kill as many Treasure Beetles and Storm Sparrows until they finally decide to break the peace. But bear in mind that the location of their deaths should also be nearby the base of the other Magical Beast. And always remember to use those Elements I\'ve mentioned to fight against them,"

"Okay!" Charlotte nodded her head.

"You don\'t have to worry, we will execute everything perfectly," Chief Lago assured.

"I hope so," Iasiah expressed that he\'s still a bit nervous.

"Well, at my side it depends on how good Elvis leads us," Nightingale said while looking at Elvis.

"I was once a Leader of the Night Ear group, so I should have a fairly good leadership ability," Elvis replied.

"Great!" Nightingale quickly gave a thumbs-up to Elvis. He could already expect their side to be smooth-sailing.

"Let\'s go?" Leo asked everyone.

"Yes!" Everyone nodded their heads in confirmation.

After they were done planning with what to do, everyone immediately split into two groups with three members each.. The first group went towards the direction of the Storm Sparrow Tree, while the second group went towards the direction of the Treasure Beetle Mountain.
