Chapter 422 - Blessing In Disguise
The wolves all jumped on top of the mummies while the latter grabbed them and slammed them to the ground.
"Ava, do you know anything?" Theo asked with a low voice while peeking at their fight.
He also began to move away because the wolves could surely find him even if he hid nearby.
Ava nodded with a serious expression as she threw a few punches while changing her sides a few times to show they were fighting each other. She then pointed down her foot before changing to another side to kneel.
"Something like a territorial dispute?" Theo frowned. "Conquering each other?"
Ava nodded her head again.
"Did something like this happen all the time in the place you lived before meeting me?"
Ava shook her head and pointed at the surroundings while looking down on them…
"Hmm? There is an absolute king in your area?" Theo interpreted it with a hesitant tone but soon got confirmation from Ava. He looked down and started thinking. "I see. What will happen if we join the fight?"
Ava thought for a moment and sent punches from three sides.
"I see. Battle royale." Theo somehow understood the situation and halted his steps, turning back to look at the fight. The clash was quite surprising, considering this was the first time he saw this kind of conflict.
However, Theo had another plan and said, "I plan to disturb and kill them. What do you think? The wolves are Blue Carnal Wolves. Their levels are around 290. The mummies are similar, so we have the chance to get so many EXPs."
"Kyu!" Ava agreed without hesitation. She believed Theo's plan would succeed, so she prepared herself to help Theo.
"Great." Theo smiled and started running back. He summoned his clone and handed the spear while going separate ways.
Real Theo approached the mummies from behind while assessing the situation. It seemed the wolves and the mummies were equal, so Theo and his clone sent all their Magic Bullets to each side.
Because the two might have enough strength to block it, Theo targeted a mummy and a wolf that were about to kill each other.
The mummy was on the bottom, getting bitten by the wolf several times while the wolf struggled because the mummy grasped its neck with that yellow bandage.
Suddenly, forty Magic Bullets entered into the mummy's vision without a sound and hit them at the same time.
[Killed a Bandage Mummy.]
[EXP+76,000]
[Killed a Carnal Blue Wolf.]
[EXP+ 77,500]
Despite killing two monsters like this, Theo couldn't smile because the wolves seemed to have spotted him.
"Aooo!" One wolf let out a loud howl as four wolves suddenly leaped to the side, chasing Theo and his clone simultaneously.
'As expected…' Theo furrowed his eyebrows and started running away.
To his surprise, the mummies that fought four of those wolves chased them, making the situation even worse.
Luckily, they spread evenly. Theo and Ava only needed to handle two wolves and two mummies at a time.
"Ava, you are small. The mummy will have a hard time catching you with their bandage, so go beat them up. I will also steal the kill if I have the chance." Theo smirked.
Ava nodded furiously before leaping off his shoulders to a tree's trunk. The moment she stepped on it, lightning burst out of her body, crushing the tree trunk and sending the splinters flying.
She used that force to launch herself to the first mummy, planning to use it as a cushion.
As expected, the mummy raised their hands and caught Ava with their bandage that stretched upon impact, preventing Ava from hitting its body.
However, Ava's power was still stronger than they expected. Each hand had one or two broken fingers.
Ava smirked. Since the mummy stopped her charge, she simply used that chance to leap again to its comrade, doing the same thing.
The other mummy didn't expect Ava to be moving freely like this, so it didn't have enough time to react and ended up getting blown away and crashing into the tree.
"Kyu." Ava smiled proudly.
While Ava was fighting, Theo also picked up his pace by waving his spear to the first wolf that almost bit him, resulting in the wolf coming to a halt to avoid his swing.
Unfortunately, the other wolf became the victim as Theo used his Blink to arrive in front of the second wolf with his hand momentum, slicing the wolf's head without enough time to react.
The wolf obviously witnessed everything and glared at him in shock and anger. Wanting to have his revenge, the wolf leaped at Theo with all his might and covered his two paws with a spinning wind to give a boost to its swipe.
Theo snorted and used his Cannon Blast and poured his Telekinesis along with his External Flow into his spear, striking the wolf's paws.
The Cannon Blast dispersed the wind while his Telekinesis blew and the actual hit blew the wolf away.
The wolf's back hit the tree as it fell down, but twenty Magic Bullets rained on him, creating multiple holes in its body.
After killing the two wolves, Theo didn't relax. Instead, he went to Ava immediately, finding her blowing away the left mummy.
Seeing the mummy struggling to get up, Theo reached the mummy as soon as possible and sliced its neck before making his way to Ava.
Noticing Theo's presence, Ava released her lightning and formed a small lightning ball in front of her, shooting it straight at the zombie's head.
The zombie leaped to the side to avoid it, but this was what Theo wanted. He followed the mummy's movement and severed its head.
"Good work, Ava." Theo extended his hand as they needed to go somewhere else.
Ava knew what to do and reached his hand as the two headed straight to Theo's clone.
The clone had an easier time because he managed to fool the mummies and the wolves into thinking he disappeared. The two ended up fighting again while the clone bid his time to kill them.
That chance appeared when Theo and Ava had dealt with their pursuers and arrived at the scene.
Theo ended up killing another two pairs of monsters.
'This is good. The situation might be more dangerous because of the territorial feud, but I can find more monsters… Ahem, distracted monsters that fight each other. Using that distraction, they are gonna give me so many EXP points.' Theo thought as he couldn't help but smirk.
He quickly revealed himself to the clash to kill all of them.
