Chapter 427 – Lesson Learned
"Good work." Theo smiled as he used his Telekinesis to pressure the monsters that came after him. He slammed his hand down and the air pressure increased, pushing the wolves to the ground.
The wolves didn't expect such an attack and used their feet to withstand the pressure even though the ground underneath them began to crack.
Obviously, Theo had no intention of wasting his time, so Ava emerged from the right side, kicking the two wolves in succession as the pressure in that area started to dissipate as she moved.
"Kyu!" Ava released her lightning to the limit, obliterating the first head and almost killing the other two wolves.
Theo took this opportunity to send a wave of Magic Bullets to them, killing the remaining wolves.
With this, there were only five more wolves that occupied him from two different directions.
His clone handled the other wolves while Ava tried to free Theo by striking the wolves on his left side..
The wolves didn't want to die, so one of them quickly turned around to launch her to the tree.
Ava threw a punch from her front foot, clashing with the wolf's paw.
However, the wolf couldn't release its water when it fought Ava. This became a fatal disadvantage against her as Ava mustered all the electricity in this punch.
Although it wasn't as powerful as the kick she released earlier, the lightning cracked a few bones and shredded the skin.
"Aoo-!" The wolf wailed in pain, but it couldn't even finish its scream before Theo's foot kicked him with his Cannon Blast, destroying the body like popping a balloon.
The other wolf wanted to turn around to handle Ava, but the latter already made her way to the wolf even before Theo killed the one she fought.
She had complete trust that Theo could kill that wolf, so all she needed to do was get as close as possible with this second wolf and hit it on the head.
Unfortunately, the wolves that his clone fought managed to slip behind Theo and Ava.
Theo quickly turned around to stop two wolves that aimed at his back. He waved his spear against their heads, so they could back away, but the wolves somehow employed a new strategy that Theo never expected.
The closest one to the spear spun its body and took the spear head-on, using its body as a meat shield. It took all the force contained in that spear until his body bent like a "C" around his belly. Unfortunately, the wolf couldn't survive after that attack because the spear's blade cut the stomach.
Theo couldn't smile yet because the wolf managed to stop his attack at the cost of its life, allowing the other wolf to reach him.
Theo called the shield from his Ring of Honor, but it was too late.
The shield formed but only at the size of his fist.
The moment the wolf struck it, its body leaned to the side and hit Theo's with its other paw.
Luckily, the wolf had infused all the power into the paw that hit the shield while giving nothing to the other paw. If not, this attack would create quite a deep graze around his chest area.
Theo clicked his tongue and took a step back to regain his balance, but the two wolves that were attacking him this whole time split into two and attacked him. The first one aimed at his chest while the other one aimed at his right arm.
Theo waved his left hand using the Cannon Blast and struck the wolf's claw, blowing it away.
But the second one managed to hit his arm.
"Kh." Theo gritted his teeth and saw the Telekinesis was fighting the power of the claw that almost hit his arm.
Unfortunately, the wolf was stronger than his Telekinesis and broke the technique, hitting Theo's right arm.
Little did the wolf know, Theo had adjusted his arm position within that one-second clash to receive its attack.
So, when the paw reached his right arm, Theo used it to spin his body while launching himself a bit farther from them.
After regaining his balance, the three wolves managed to see there was no scratch on his right arm, only a rip shirt.
Theo smiled and raised his vision.
The wolves immediately sensed something coming from above and followed his line of sight, finding a wave of Magic Bullets.
Theo had launched another wave of Magic Bullets in the middle of the chaotic fight without anyone realizing it.
The wolves quickly leaped out of the way while Theo waved his spear despite no wolf was present in front of him.
Theo utilized the momentum and disappeared.
"Blink."
One of the wolves watched Theo reappearing in shock as Theo's spear was already close to his neck and sliced it before it could react.
"Ao—!" The wolf fell down, dying.
Theo then made his way to the second one with his Telekinesis, Materialization, and External Flow, smashing the wolf to crisp. Blood even came out of the pores because of the powerful force from Theo's attack.
Seeing his friends dying, the last wolf didn't care about anything and just pounced at Theo, trying to kill him.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything as Ava made her entrance by kicking the wolf on the head.
Theo then proceeded to kill the wolf while assessing their situation. He panted a few times while turning his body, finding his clone killing the last wolf.
There were 21 wolves he fought earlier with 16 of them died in his hand while the rest was destroyed by Ava.
"Seriously… To think I barely managed to deal with them…" Theo scratched the back of his head. Even though he had read about many wolves here, he didn't know about this species. Out of curiosity, he took out his Skylink to confirm them.
Name: River Water Wolf
Level: 275-285
The wolf lives near a river. Beware of its powerful claw and ability to manipulate the water. Make sure you don't fight this wolf near a river.
"Ehm, seriously?" Theo widened his eyes and complained, "All those efforts for 21 wolves that have ten to twenty levels above me? Well, this shows how I shouldn't be surrounded by many people of my level… Quantity can change the outcome as well… I guess."
