Chapter 160 - Killing The Mammoth
Alea's Inch Slash cut through the wound and deepened the wound. The mammoth could only scream due to the excruciating pain that shocked his mind. The blood flowed out of its body and dripped to the ground like a water source.
Theo looked at the wound and shouted, "It's going deep. The mammoth should die within a few minutes with that kind of wound. Keep it up."
"Roger." Alea nodded and moved away from the mammoth. Since his death was just a matter of time, she chose to conserve her energy for the next fight against the monsters that came from the forest.
Although they had been killing the monsters around this area, their number was still huge. Hence, Alea wanted to wipe them out and celebrated their victory later.
The mammoth's eye lost its focus before it went rampage with the last bit of its strength.
The ground began to crack every time he stomped the ground and some even rotated or launched to the air.
At the same time, the roars from monsters echoed in their ears as all of them turned around, finding seven monsters coming out of the forest.
"Sihan, we are going to handle it," Theo shouted and leaped to the monsters with his clone. "Alea, Ellen, you two are to kill the mammoth before helping us."
"Roger," said Sihan while the two girls nodded their heads with serious expressions.
Sihan quickly made his way to the front and challenged seven cheetahs that seemed to be trying to save the mammoth. Unfortunately for him, Sihan suddenly dropped to his knees as he forgot the time limit of his Frenzy.
"Kh!" Sihan clenched his teeth and recalled he only had five minutes for the Frenzy Skill. The strength in his body left his body as it was hard for him to even lift a finger.
"Tch." Theo clicked his tongue as he looked at all these cheetahs. "Seven opponents with at least twenty levels above me… I wonder if I can do it."
Before they clashed, Clone Theo grabbed Sihan and used Blink to send him away before regrouping with the main body. Meanwhile, three ice lotuses appeared between them.
"Bloom, Ice Lotus."
Theo furrowed his eyebrows and glanced to the back, only to find Ellen still facing the mammoth. She seemed to release one of her two skills to support him.
Theo felt grateful for her initiative and used his Illusion Multiplier and made another three clones. In other words, coupled with the original clone, he had five men to fight against seven cheetahs.
The illusion clones leaped to the side to see how many cheetahs they would take. Their job was only to run away, so they should bring at least one of them away.
As he predicted, three cheetahs decided to follow Theo's illusion clones as the clones tried to run around the area.
Unlike his clone, these ones couldn't share their vision after all.
Theo used this chance to fight the four cheetahs with his clone.
Both of them activated Haste and Focused Charge at the same time. Four cheetahs leaped to the air and tried to bite their necks, but both Theo and his clone disappeared, appearing only three feet behind them.
They turned around and released the Magic Bullet. Theo focused on the right cheetah while Clone Theo killed the left cheetah with his Magic Bullets.
He somehow managed to defeat them within the first engagement, leaving only two more.
Theo quickly charged forward without hesitation and thrust his spear, but the cheetahs landed on the ground, turned around, and avoided his thrust.
After that, they leaped to Theo and opened their mouths, showing their sharp pointed teeth.
Instead of Blink, Theo and his clone used Monkey Fist and punched the cheetahs before they reached them, blowing them several feet away.
He then summoned his Magic Bullet again and focused on the cheetahs, locking them with the tracking feature.
"Magic Bullet."
Each cheetah faced ten Magic Bullets as they started running away to avoid them, but the Magic Bullets surprisingly followed their movements. The Magic Bullet lost its energy one by one and either dispersed or hit the ground, but it should be able to buy enough time for him.
"!!!" Sihan dropped his jaw when he saw this type of result. He couldn't believe Theo's Magic Bullet could follow their movement since he doubted Theo's Force Control wouldn't allow him to do such a perfect chase. In other words, Theo must have been hiding his skill's real power this whole time.
The cheetah kept running, so Theo and his clone appeared next to the illusion clones. The spears had glowed as they struck the first cheetah with Focused Charge.
The cheetah managed to avoid the first spear but had his head pierced by the second one.
Sihan simply couldn't comment on Theo's fighting style. What Theo had been doing right now was manipulating the battle using tricks. He didn't look like a Fighter or a Magic Warrior at all.
He started wondering whether Theo would change his job or not. After all, he could benefit more if he registered for a more befitting job due to the skills he could buy from the Temple for that one specific job.
Little did he know, Theo understood his concern well, but he didn't know if the Temple would sell skills with a high offensive ability like his Magic Bullet or not. After all, illusions and manipulation sometimes wouldn't work if you didn't have any high offensive ability to scare or affect your opponent's mind since illusion wouldn't allow one to give a huge amount of damage to the opponent.
He knew that illusion could affect one's mind greatly, but he was a controller instead of an Illusionist, so he wanted to stick to this path.
At the same time, his opponent wasn't only human that could be confused with normal illusions, but also the monsters.
Hence, he had been thinking how much he needed to change his ten skill slots to become a perfect Illusionist with a powerful spear technique and skill like that of a Fighter and a Magician.
In other words, Theo's vision of a powerful Illusionist was the combination of three jobs.
Not bothered with the thought at the moment, Theo kept fighting the cheetahs but was unable to kill the remaining four. Sihan wanted to help, but his body refused to move, making it hard for the entire group.
Suddenly, a scream resounded in the area as Theo quickly turned around and saw the mammoth releasing its last scream while falling to the ground.
Bam.
The mammoth was so heavy that its fall vibrated the ground, but it was the best sight he had ever seen today.
Ignoring the mammoth, Alea and Ellen moved to the chased cheetah, killed both of them, and helped Theo with the remaining two.
"Sorry for making you wait."
