God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 924 - Underwater Fight

*Pant!*

Theo took a deep breath, sorting his breath out. He used too much Magic Power earlier that he needed to consider how many skills he could use to go to the lake.

Since it would be a problem fighting the Flying Frog King with this condition, he hid in a tree near the lake, trying to recover his Magic Power.

It took hours to recover most of his Magic Power because he also needed to deal with multiple monsters that found his position.

By the time he completely recovered his power, the sunset had come.

"It's going to be dark soon… It's better if I go to a safer place to sleep. So, I should finish the monster as soon as possible. Well, the question is, how strong is the Flying Frog King? Judging from the flying frogs' levels, I think around level 650."

Theo checked his status again.

Theo furrowed his eyebrows and muttered, "Can I kill a monster more than 100 levels above me with the ability to command the monsters around him? If I have Ava with me, I won't be that afraid since not only can she stop the normal monsters, but she can also help me fight.

"Agata is not here to support me either." Theo looked down with a serious expression. "Still, the frog is known to be poisonous and has some strength like the normal flying frog… I might need to use my spear and the real clone to fight this monster. Luckily, I can stop his poison with my Death Avatar's second authority, Underworld Body. If not, I won't stand a chance at all."

Theo fell silent for another fifteen minutes, coming up with a plan that could kill the Flying Frog King. At the same time, he also sent his clone to scout the area around, thinning the number of monsters around the area while making sure no humans were near this place.

After getting his plan, Theo leaped off the tree and headed straight to the lake. Since he needed to go underwater, he took off his clothes while using his Death Armor to cover his body for the moment.

Then, Theo jumped into the water while changing his form to a fish. The only time he used this form was when Maya fought him in Thersland, so it was kind of nostalgic.

As soon as he entered the water, he expanded his Awareness, searching for the Flying Frog King. Surprisingly, there were no monsters in this water even though the small lake was quite spacious.

'Has the flying frog king killed them?' Theo thought while looking around, only to find nothing.

He went deeper and deeper while using his Magic Power to create a blue light around him to brighten the lake.

When he reached the depth of 150 feet, Theo found a huge boulder that stood in the middle of the lake.

'That's suspicious.' Theo narrowed his eyes and approached it carefully, noticing the boulder was releasing Magic Power. It only meant two things: it was either a monster or an artifact.

As soon as Theo came close enough, the boulder trembled once before a red tongue came out of the boulder, circling him.

"!!!" Theo widened his eyes and realized he had been enveloped by the tongue. Without wasting even a single second, the tongue brought him into the frog's slimy yet warm mouth. The smell was terrible, and the slimy liquid was disgusting.

'Am I going to get digested?' Theo muttered in his mind and utilized his Blink to escape from the frog's mouth. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

'I don't want to experience that anymore.'

As if realizing Theo had disappeared in his mouth, the rock trembled again as a pair of eyes showed their appearance, looking at the fish a few feet away from him.

The legs flapped once and shook off all the dirt on it, resulting in cracking the rest of the soil.

The frog swayed his body left and right, peeling off the dirt he used as camouflage.

'For real? The Flying Frog not only can fly, but it can also live underwater while using camouflage?' Theo was stunned as he had never seen a frog like this.

Unfortunately, he had no time to observe the frog as the latter leaped forward.

Although the frog's speed wasn't that fast, Theo's swimming skill wasn't that good when he was in his fish form. He still needed to utilize his Telekinesis to help him move.

And the usage of this skill couldn't escape from the flying frog king's eyes. "Hmm? A fish that can't even move fast? Who are you?!"

The frog said it in a human language and noticed the slight change in Theo's expression. Without hesitation, the frog declared. "So, you're a human. How dare a human disturb me! No. You're here to hunt my brethren and me… I don't know how you can become a fish, but you need to die."

The frog spat out poison and spread it on the water, trying to kill Theo.

Unfortunately for him, the Death Avatar came out and protected Theo from the poison.

After that, Theo turned back into his human form, created a spear with his Magic Power, and threw it at the frog.

Because of the water pressure and resistance, the spear ended up falling to the ground with its speed reduced.

Since his attack failed, Theo summoned his Magic Bullets before a shield from his Ring of Honor appeared to his right.

Another tongue hit him from the right and shattered the shield, but luckily, Theo managed to use the tongue's momentum to send him away…

Theo thought, 'Fighting underwater, huh… This is the first time I've done this. Although the opponent is quite dangerous, I might as well try it while I can… It should be easy to bring the frog to the surface anyway.'
