Chapter 364 - Three Great Defense
All Magic Bullets flew in all directions. Theo's targets were both squids' weaknesses.
He hit their tentacles, arms, and even various spots on the main bodies.
Bam.
The tentacles hit the ground, but none of them hit Theo and Ava. At the same time, the squids released their translucent screen from the glowing blue light, protecting their skins.
As expected, around 80 percent of the Magic Bullets hit those protective barriers. However, the rest somehow hit the squids, albeit all of them were just illusions.
"…
" Theo became serious as he already saw the reach of each protective barrier, knowing that he could target several spots for the time being. But…
"The vitals are protected tightly.
" Theo let out a long sigh before shouting to Ava,
"You should know their weak spots already. Hit on those areas by using your speed, Ava. We shall cut them into pieces until we kill them.
"
"Kyu!
" Ava replied as lightning began to spark from her body. She stepped on the air and launched herself to the left squid.
The squid obviously wouldn't let Ava come closer.
It used the remaining tentacles to create an obstacle for Ava, stopping her from her track. At the same time, the other two that hit the ground earlier returned, hitting her from behind.
Unfortunately, Ava already saw this coming. Instead of moving away, Ava only stood still and shouted,
"Kyu!
"
Seeing the two pairs of tentacles, Clone Theo used his Telekinesis to fly to Ava, touching her back while using his Blink before they were squeezed to death.
The four tentacles ended up hitting each other.
"!!!
" The squid never expected the enemy to be so sly. Angered, it glared at Ava and found her coming at him with her fastest speed.
Having all tentacles stuck after the clash, the squid didn't have anything left to protect itself. Hence, he erected the protective screen to block this attack.
It was at this time, Ava took another step and launched herself to the top of the squid's eyes. Her feet were covered with powerful lightning that pierced the squid's body and ripped the surrounding apart, creating a hole ten times Ava's size, which was only a palm-size creature.
It was small, but it would certainly weaken the squid.
"Kyu!
"
Ava smirked as she had done her job, but a shadow soon covered her, stopping the sunlight from directly hitting her.
She raised her vision and saw another huge tentacle that almost reached her. The tentacle came from her right, so it was obvious whose tentacle was this.
And Theo wouldn't allow such an action. He appeared next to the tentacle and used his Cannon Blast in the spot that didn't get protected by the blue protective screen.
The powerful energy hit the tentacle and almost ripped apart the tentacle, albeit it didn't penetrate enough like Ava's strength.
This attack should be over and the tentacle would have fallen down and gone somewhere else, but the squid was a stubborn one. It sent another tentacle, not only to help the first tentacle hit Ava but also to hit Theo simultaneously.
Theo smiled when he saw these two tentacles while glancing at the squid.
Suddenly, a hole appeared in the squid's right eye as a blue light pierced through it.
"You don't activate your protection the whole time, so it must exhaust your strength quite a lot. And the fact that you didn't realize it was coming means I can easily defeat you by aiming at your weak spots.
" Theo smiled.
The squid's body swayed left and right because of the pain.
It never realized that Clone Theo used the Magic Bullet, sent it away, and used the Tracking ability to hit the squid from behind.
Theo smiled. Before the tentacle went away, he pierced the tentacle and utilized the Telekinesis to move around it, cutting the remaining uncut tentacle and sending it flying.
"Goar!
" The squid let out a loud sound. It dropped to the ground before black ink began to cover the entire lake.
"Ah, right… I forgot the fact that the squid usually used ink to get away from the predator. But since it's coming from their bottom, I guess it won't be dangerous for us?
" Theo muttered while looking at the black water.
Noticing that its partner was in trouble, the other squid waved its tentacle to Theo, trying to stop Theo from killing its partner.
Theo raised his vision and used his Blink to escape from it, but his Awareness picked something big from behind.
Theo turned around, saw another tentacle approaching him and spun his body. This way, his feet should hit the tentacle first.
When the tentacle almost touched him, Theo activated his Flowmotion and stepped on the tentacle, leaping away.
"What will happen if I have a squid like this as a pet? It can help me in my fight, especially since I can use my Flowmotion continuously.
" Theo smirked, looking at the squid.
Since Ava's hearing was several times more powerful than that of humans, she picked up Theo's voice and got the shock of her life.
"Kyu!
" She let out a hollow cry as if asking him,
"Are you not satisfied with me?
"
"Haha, I'm kidding.
" Theo laughed while using his Telekinesis to fly around the squid while observing Ava's movement, who had been helped by his Telekinesis to remain in the air while jumping around from one tentacle to another this whole time.
Suddenly, the squid slammed the tentacle to the ground and the water and used that force to jump into the air, pointing its butt at Theo.
"Seriously?
" Theo widened his eyes in amusement and used his Telekinesis to fly away.
However, he soon realized the squid was following his movement and he didn't have enough time to fly around the squid.
The squid then shot out a high-pressured black ink.
Theo raised his hand and summoned two Elemental Shields but soon found out that the pressure from the black ink pushed him back until he dropped to the ground.
His Clone quickly came to him as he used the Elemental Shields to help Theo take this kind of attack.
"Kh.
" Theo gritted his teeth and placed his hand on the ground.
"This kind of power… I think it's time to use this one.
"
Three tombstones made of blue lights emerged from the ground as they formed a blue screen in front of him.
"Three Great Defense.
"
The Elemental Shields then disappeared, leaving only the blue screen to take on this black ink.
