God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 754 - Maya’s Strength

Now that they had located Theo and Agata's position, the monsters managed to avoid the spikes at the very last second.

As a result, they were in a vulnerable state as they didn't have time to react to Maya and Ava's attack.

Ava smacked a few monsters in Maya's way, allowing her to kill them easily.

After that, Theo rained all the monsters with his Magic Bullets that turned out to be hiding inside Agata's pink smoke.

When they took another look at it, no monster actually got hurt. Not even a single graze on their body, meaning Agata only used her illusion to camouflage the bullet… she didn't even cover it with her Sense of Touch.

Boom.

Boom.

Boom.

Some monsters had a harder body and received the attack with their bodies while the rest were pushed back.

There was blood dripping to the ground, so it was clear the Magic Bullets wounded a few monsters.

"Well…" Theo narrowed his eyes and saw the monsters were actually covered in flame. He thought, 'Normal Monsters won't easily use their abilities if they have any. That's why it's easier to kill them. Maybe they've been fighting in this place for so long that they start using their ability without the slightest hesitation?'

Theo's doubt was pretty accurate. To avoid dying in this land, they needed to react instantly, so it was normal for them to utilize their ability the moment they noticed the enemies.

This was also what happened to the monsters back in Thersland, specifically where Ava and Avarice lived.

Even though they were living there, they didn't even restrict the monsters fighting against each other. Avarice simply believed that the one who came on top would be the greatest and she could simply make them her subordinate like the Shadow Fox.

The moment Theo saw the fire covering their body, he pushed his hand forward, utilizing his Telekinesis to pressure them while blowing their fire away.

It was at this time, the earth-based monster showed their mighty prowess. They raised the ground to challenge the pressure.

Some of them even jumped up to knock Theo down.

Theo, having no way to handle all those attacks, grabbed Agata's hand and used his Telekinesis to fly away.

At the same time, Maya increased her firepower by using her sniper rifle, blowing all the monsters that planned to attack them.

As soon as they landed on the ground, she changed the bullets to the ones that emphasized penetration power instead of knocking power before firing at one of the monsters who was falling to the ground.

Bam.

The bullet pierced its head and killed it without any fight.

Meanwhile, Theo used his Magic Augmentation and Magic Power Expansion, finding one monster had covered his fist with rock as if planning to challenge Theo.

The latter accepted it and covered his fist with Magic Power Expansion.

Their punches collided with each other as the Magic Power Expansion burst out, releasing a massive shock wave that shook the area.

The ten-foot-tall monster that challenged him soon lost its balance due to the shock wave and was blown away, knocking another monster on its path.

Before Maya killed them, another monster fell on top of them, stopping their movement. It was Ava's work.

'Really?' Maya thought, impressed by the job Ava had done this whole time. She thought Theo had truly instilled his strategy to his pet to the point she could match their movement, making the hunt far easier.

She also realized that Ava rarely killed the monsters, allowing Theo and Agata to receive the EXP. The only thing Ava did was eat some monsters.

This was the recipe of Theo's fast hunting, she thought. However, when they fought together like this, Maya couldn't help but smile. "Good job."

She started shooting the falling monsters, killing them in rapid succession.

Unfortunately, they had no time to relax.

When they turned around, they saw four monsters rushing toward them, planning to intercept them.

Theo waved his right hand and formed threads big enough for the monsters to see it.

Since they still needed to defeat Theo and Agata, the monsters split into two groups. There were two monsters leaping through the gap between the threads, albeit they got pierced by Agata's pink smoke right after. They didn't realize Theo's threads were nothing but an illusion that forced them to leap like that, preventing them from blocking any attack afterward.

This left two monsters who chose to loop around the area to attack Maya.

"I'm fine," Maya shouted when she saw the monsters pouncing her.

The sniper rifle was gone, replaced by a shotgun. She ducked down and avoided the first monster.

The moment the monster was on top of her, she released the first shot, launching the monster up in the air with blood and flesh splattered in the air.

The monster also crashed to the other one, resulting in him failing to hit Maya.

And the moment the monster landed and turned around, Agata had pointed her pistol at him, shooting the head a few times.

Unfortunately, this wasn't the end of the onslaught.

Three birds dove from the sky to attack them.

"Sheesh, I'm so popular." Maya smirked and changed her weapon to a shotgun again.

When she was about to aim at the incoming flying beasts, Ava leaped into the air and appeared on top of the first bird with lightning covering her body.

She slammed the first bird into the ground before jumping to another one to hit it, ultimately striking all three birds.

Maya was thankful to Ava and immediately ended the three birds' lives before she heard Agata shouting, "Maya, Dodge!"

Maya immediately sensed something moving underground at a fast speed.

She clicked her tongue and threw herself to the left. In that instant, a huge brown-colored worm emerged from the ground, rising into the sky.

Still, as one would expect from a weapon expert, when she jumped away, she left behind a little present for the worm.

It made Maya take another leap to distance herself as the worm suddenly exploded from the inside.

Boom.

"I'm truly popular." Maya grinned, watching how her grenade took down the monster… At the same time, she had shown Agata and Theo that she wasn't a dead weight.
